(Testimony of William E. Wulf)

Mr. Liebeler.
With respect to the taking of your testimony, and I understand that he enclosed with his letter copies of the Executive order and the joint resolution to which I have just referred, as well as a copy of the rules of procedure relating to the taking of testimony.
Mr. Wulf.
Correct.
Mr. Liebeler.
You did receive the letter, et cetera?
Mr. Wulf.
Correct.
Mr. Liebeler.
We want to inquire of you concerning possible knowledge that you have of Lee Harvey Oswald during the time that he lived in New Orleans during the period 1954-55. Before we get into the details of that, however, would you state your full name for the record.
Mr. Wulf.
My name is William Eugene Wulf. No junior.
Mr. Liebeler.
What is your address?
Mr. Wulf.
2107 Annunciation Street, this city.
Mr. Liebeler.
Where and when were you born, Mr. Wulf?
Mr. Wulf.
I was born in New Orleans, September 22, 1939.
Mr. Liebeler.
Are you presently employed?
Mr. Wulf.
No. I am a student at Louisiana State University at New Orleans.
Mr. Liebeler.
What are you majoring in?
Mr. Wulf.
History.
Mr. Liebeler.
How long have you been attending LSU?
Mr. Wulf.
Four and a half years. I am a senior at this time.
Mr. Liebeler.
You obtained your primary education and secondary education here in New Orleans?
Mr. Wulf.
That is correct.
Mr. Liebeler.
Where did you obtain that education, what schools?
Mr. Wulf.
My primary education was obtained, up until the seventh grade, at Redemptorist Grammar School. For high school I attended De La Salle High School in 1956, and in 1958 and 1959 I attended Cor Jesu High School in New Orleans and graduated there in 1959.
Mr. Liebeler.
And then from there you went to LSU?
Mr. Wulf.
LSU, right.
Mr. Liebeler.
Have you been in the Army or any branch of the military service?
Mr. Wulf.
No. I am exempted at this time.
Mr. Liebeler.
The Commission has received information to the effect that you were the President of the New Orleans Amateur Astronomy Association----
Mr. Wulf.
That is correct.
Mr. Liebeler.
Sometime during the year 1955. Is that correct?
Mr. Wulf.
That is correct.
Mr. Liebeler.
What is the New Orleans Amateur Astronomy Association, or what was it at that time?
Mr. Wulf.
It was at that time an organization of mainly high school students in the city, mainly at De La Salle at that time, interested in astronomy, who owned telescopes, did observation, etc.
Mr. Liebeler.
Is the group still active?
Mr. Wulf.
No. We are still listed as active in the membership rolls of the national association, but we are not active due to the fact that most of the members are out of town, either in the military or in college.
Mr. Liebeler.
In connection with your activities in the New Orleans Amateur Astronomy Association, did there ever come a time when you were contacted by or met a person who you either now believe or know to be Lee Harvey Oswald?
Mr. Wulf.
I believe it was. The one person who could have confirmed this in my behalf was Mr. McBride, P. E. McBride, who is in Florida at this time.
Mr. Liebeler.
That is Palmer McBride?
Mr. Wulf.
Right. But I had met Oswald through McBride. He contacted me on getting into the Astronomy Club at that time, and it was--I had originally believed it was 1953, but on recapitulating the time and all, probably it was September or August in 1955.
Mr. Liebeler.
Do you remember how Oswald got in touch with you?
Mr. Wulf.
Not exactly. It was either one of two ways. I believe he had
