(Testimony of Sterling Charles Wood)

Mr. Liebeler.
You spoke to your father about it?
Mr. Wood.
Yes; we went to get a paper about the assassination and I said, "Dad, that does look like the man to me." And he said it did, too.
Mr. Liebeler.
Did your father mention it to you first, or did you mention it to your father?
Mr. Wood.
I mentioned it to him first.
Mr. Liebeler.
You mentioned it to him first?
Mr. Wood.
Yes.
Mr. Liebeler.
Was your mother there when you mentioned it to him?
Mr. Wood.
No, sir; she was out. We had gone out to get a paper.
Mr. Liebeler.
The first time you saw this guy's picture was in the newspaper, is that right?
Mr. Liebeler.
You told your father that this guy you saw at the rifle range looked like Oswald, based on the picture of Oswald in the newspaper?
Mr. Wood.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Liebeler.
Now, did you ever read in the newspaper anything about Oswald's ability to drive an automobile?
Mr. Wood.
No, sir; I didn't read anything about that.
Mr. Liebeler.
Do you remember whether or not Oswald could drive a car or not?
Mr. Wood.
I think he could, because my mother told me something about him going to Mexico or something.
Mr. Liebeler.
Now you said that your mother told you something about Oswald going to Mexico, is that right?
Mr. Wood.
Yes.
Mr. Liebeler.
You never were aware of the fact or heard that Oswald could not drive a car, is that right?
Mr. Wood.
Do you mean--I didn't get what you said.
Mr. Liebeler.
Did, anybody ever tell you that Oswald couldn't drive a car?
Mr. Wood.
No, sir.
Mr. Liebeler.
You never heard that?
Mr. Wood.
No sir.
Mr. Liebeler.
And you don't know that now?
Mr. Wood.
No, sir; I thought he could drive.
Mr. Liebeler.
Did this other man that he was with fire a rifle at all?
Mr. Wood.
No, sir.
Mr. Wood.
No. sir.
Mr. Liebeler.
Sterling, I want to show you some pictures of some men, and these pictures have previously been marked as Commission's Exhibit 451 and 453 through 456, sir; There are five of them. I want you to look at them and tell me if any of the pictures look like the guy you saw at the rifle range that you think was Oswald?
Mr. Wood.
No, sir.
Mr. Liebeler.
None of those look like him?
Mr. Wood.
No, sir.
Mr. Liebeler.
Now I want to show you another photograph which has not yet been marked, and ask you to look at it very carefully and tell me if any of the people in that picture look like the boy at the rifle range?
Mr. Wood.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Liebeler.
Which one?
Mr. Wood.
That one with the paper in his hand.
Mr. Liebeler.
Now I want to show you another picture that has been marked as Pizzo Exhibit 453-B, and ask you, that is the same picture, isn't it?
Mr. Wood.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Liebeler.
You pointed out that he has a green line over his head and you say that is the fellow you saw at the rifle range?
Mr. Wood.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Liebeler.
Here is another picture that I want you to look at and see if you see anybody that looks like the fellow you saw at the rifle range?
Mr. Wood.
Yes, sir.
