...back of him, out of a window in the Texas School Book Depository. The filmed evidence of the actual shooting, which certainly seems to make it questionable that Oswald fired the fatal shots, is old material.

Who was the woman in the polka-dot dress who appears in photographs of the assassination scene, and who was identified as having been seen with Sirhan earlier in the week?

The cover line, "What a Depression Is Really Like-Scenes from the 1930s," was a bit alarming for the sober story inside. In fact, economists generally agree that a return to the horrors of the '30s-when unemployment hit 25% as measured then...
