Acting on an anonymous phone call, police stopped the cab Tues day just off Interstate 35, but were not aware Bullock was the passen ger. No gun or hostage was found in the cab and Bullock agreed to go to the station for questioning. He was not arrested. According to the Travis County Sheriffs office, the anonymous caller said a man with a gun was at the address of Allen Henry Burns, an enforcement officer with Bul lock’s office. Bums was suspended by Bul lock Tuesday because of his arrest in Bastrop County on charges of possessing a controlled substance believed to be hashish and also possession of marijuana. Officers arriving at Burn’s resi dence found no signs of a disturb ance, but determined that a man had left the area and was headed for the Quorum Club, a bar popu lar with state officials.

Hinkle said he asked Bullock if he was armed and Bullock challenged him to “pro duce” a gun. Hinkle said Bullock told police that he was upset with Bums, who apparently is a friend of the com ptroller’s son. In a statement, Bullock said that he went to Burns’ home, adding that what occurred “is really no body’s business but mine.” However, he said: “But since everybody is going to be nosey, let me simply say that it was an in tensely personal matter. “I went out there to tolool a not-so-happy situationtkl might involve my son, Bobl Bullock said he was ( that Burns was not i whatever problems his s have and that he eonsiderefl matter closed. Oswald grave ruling expected in two wee] United Press International FORT WORTH — Attorneys for a British author told an appeals court Thursday serious questions have been raised about the identi ty of a body in Lee Harvey Oswald’s grave and that Oswald’s brother had no right to block an exhumation because he might not even be related to the deceased. “Mr. Michael Eddowes has raised clear and concise questions as to the identity of the body there,” Attorney Cue Lipscomb said. Two of the three justices of the Court of Civil Appeals sharply questioned attorneys for Robert Oswald and also expressed doubts about the sweeping scope of a low er court order forbidding Eddowes to engage in activities that could lead to an exhumation. The packed hearing lasted for 45 minutes and attorneys said they expected a ruling probably within two weeks, although some attor neys said the ruling could be up to two months away. After the hearing Eddowes said if the appeals court allowed him to open the grave in Rose Hill Burial Park, he would expect to find no thing. ” If a body was in the grave, Eddowes said: “From the tips of his fingers to the crown of his head, the hard documentary evi dence I have pursued for 18 years is that the alleged assassin was not Oswald. Therefore, Robert Oswald has no business being be fore this court.” Eddowes said he was sympathe tic to a lawsuit seeking an exhuma tion filed by Oswald’s widow, Marina Oswald Porter, against Robert Oswald. Eddowes said, however, the lower court order he was appealing kept him from help ing Porter open the grave and he said he understood she had legal reasons for withdrawing her con sent from his efforts to exhume the body. “The man who shot President John F. Kennedy, in my view, was a Soviet citizen sent here by (for mer Soviet Premer Nikita) Jim A Khrushchev to assassinate Ken nedy,” Eddowes said. During the hearing Eddowes’ attorneys reviewed the case and said the testimony and law gave Oswald’s widow “a superior right to control the remains of her de ceased husband.” They also argued that the lower court’s tem porary injunction against Eddowes was overly broad, pro hibiting lawful conduct such as fredom of speech and the press and due process of law. Justice Joe Spurlock agreed with the argument saying the order “enjoins all persons — the media and even persons not named in the lawsuit —” from seeking an exhumation. Reacting to Spurlock’s critic ism, attorneys for Robert Oswald indicated they would agree to a more narrow order hut would con tinue efforts to keep the grave from being opened because orki nlool rey: Robert Oswald due mental anguish The appeals court uis allowed to consider the fc: Oswald’s widow withdres] consent from Eddowes the grave when shefilediii dependent lawsuit against!
