Tom Murray, 22-year-old convict and leader of the trio who shot their way out of the prison, killing two j guards, was granted an extension of time until next Tuesday morn ling at 10 o'clock when he was tak ;n before Judge Percy R. Kelly In the circuit court this afternoon for arraignment. Inability to secure an attorney as yet was given by Murray as his reason for asking for the extension. When Judge Kelly explaln-'d to Murray that be was entitled to counsel and asked him whether he wanted the court to appoint an at torney to defend him, or select his own attorney, Murray answered: 'No I wish to get iny own coun sel." The court then explained the dif ference between an arraignment and a formal pleading, but Murray appeared not to understand, which brought a sharp reprimand from the Judge. "Weil, I haven't had much ex perience in courts as far as trials are concerned, and I would like to have an attorney before anything is done," Murray said. "This Is a pretty serious matter." The prisoner explained that he had written to Roy Shields, Port land attorney, asking htm to handle the case, but had not re ceived an answer from him. Ask ed what he would consider a rea sonable time in which to get an attorney the convict said: "If Shields will answer, a cou ple of days ought to be all right." The court suggested the ar raignment be delayed until Tues day. "Will you give me an exten sion of time after that, if Shields doesn't answer me-" Murray ask ed. Judge Kelly replied that is Murray was not able to secure an attorney by Tuesday, the court would consider another extension of time. The handcuffs were snapped on Murray again and he was es corted from the room smiling. It was announced that Willos and Kelley would he brought into court together immediately for their arraignment. (Attoctate pirw Lmtd Win.) CHICAGO. Aug. 28. Two avi ators in one plane were killed in a collision of two United States army airplanes 500 feet above the May wood air field late yesterday. Pilot of the second plane escap ed uninjured, although his ship was partly wrecked. Lieutenant Talcott P. "Happy" Smith of Portland, Oregon, and bis pas senger. Captain William L. Hep tig, avlatiqn reserve officer, for mer army colonel, a member mt the Chicago Board of Trade and president of the Chicago chapter of the National Aeronautical As sociation, were the victims. They were in a De Havlland plane, from Chanute Field, Kan toul, 111., and were returning from an air tournament at Camp Grant. Lieutenant It. Douglass, a mem ber of the first pursuit group, stationed at Selfridge Field. Mount Clemens, Michigan, was flying in front and above Smith's ship, in a Curtis pursuit plane. In attempting a landing Smith made an upward turn to avoid a mail plane piloted by William Page, which was taking off. The De Havlland overturned when Its tail cut sharply against the side of the Curtis ship and hurtled toward the ground. Smith made desperate efforts to right his craft and Jumped as it burnt into flames. His parachute failed to open and he was crushed to death as he landed. He leaped when the falling plane was about 25 feet above the ground. The burning plane narrowly missed hundreds of spectators who witnessed the accident. The propeller of Douglass' ship was sheared almost off by the impact, It was found after he landed. A military Investigation of the accident will attempt to determine whether the pilots of the collid ing machines were "stunting" for the benefit of the spectators, and why the parachutes failed to open.
