Ralph,
I stated that I would not want to make too much of a an old b&w photo on
the matter of =hair colour=. It's a quick , 'rough 'n ready'
observation , but based on the quality of the photo , it is a fair
observation.
As for the sideburn : come on ! If you are going to suggest that we can
see an ID bracelet on his wrist,then you should be objective and concede
that the point about the sideburn/no sideburn is at least as equally valid
, given that it is based on a section of the photo which is of greater
clarity than the figure's wrist.
Still , anthropological and photographic analysis arguments never seem to
elicit consensus , so let's keep cool,put them aside and focus on the
potential deal-breaker about the arrest time :

What is his source for the time? I do not know. There might be something
in the officers' statements,but I have not seen any reports from DPD
officers which could resolve the issue.
A pity that William Allen's camera did not have a digital time-stamping
camera !
Tell you what,Ralph - I will stay to true to my magnanimity : if someone
in this NG cannot come up with a verifiable arrest time by the weekend,I
will put the question to others in an effort to nail this.
Meantime,it would be wise to mention the arrest time issue on your blog :
a verifiable late arrest time alone would prove that it was not Oswald.
You believe,as do I,that LHO took a bus and a cab : this means,for your
figure to be Oswald,that the three tramps had to be marched through DP
within, at most,ten minutes of the assassination.
