Wearing dirty clothes, somewhat similar in appearance to a mechanic who had been working on automobiles. This man spoke English without an accent. No noticeable scars. MALE #2 DESCRIPTION Long Blond hair and long sideburns About 5'10" tall Very slender Build Approximately 22 to 24 years of age No noticeable scars OSWALD'S DESCRIPTION Slender Blondish, Sandy hair Full head of hair Wearing khaki pants and a sport shirt of unknown color Appeared to be approximately 27 or 28 years of age No noticeable scars Neat appearing and no growth of beard MR. WORMSER stated that the woman in the car with the baby appeared to have black hair but could not furnish any further description. The baby appeared to be a very tender age. MR. PANZECA at the outset of the interview informed me that MR. WORMSER would probably be used as a defense witness in the SHAW trial. The obvious strategy here being that if the man identified as OSWALD by MR. WORMSER was, in fact, LEE HARVEY OSWALD, and he did not have a beard at this time, it could be used to impeach the testimony of RUSSO who described OSWALD as having a slight whisker growth at the meeting in DAVID FERRIE'S apartment. MR. WORMSER does not believe that he could identify either the Latin on the other male with the long blond hair if he saw them again today.
