  And it wasn`t only in the 1967 Clay Shaw trial that he said this. In a
memo dated Jan. 25th, 1965 he wrote...

     "In my discussions with Cdr Humes, I stated we should not check the
block "complete autopsy" in the Autopsy Report Form. In compliance with
the wishes of the Kennedy family, the prosectors had confined their
examination to the head and chest."

  And...

  " "I was told that the Kennedy family first authorized the autopsy of
the head only and then extended the permission to the chest. Organs of the
neck were not removed because of these same restrictions."

  Ben knows this is Finck`s true position, and he never said it was an
order from a military officer. But since this is moderated forum I can`t
label Ben`s claims what they really are.

  Numerous people in the autopsy room attest to Kennedy family
influence. If only CTer ideas had such corroborative support.
