court, admitted holding the jun
but accused Noblin of being in on
Uie slickup plans. The third man,
Campbell, was not present for the
hearing. He is free on bail.
Dep. Dist. Att. Don H. Sanders
called only Powneil to the stand,
while A. C. Roll, Noblin's attorney,
had several relatives and friends
of Noblin testily.
In the Leslie hearing, both Lea
lie and his son, William Jr., about
16, gave testimony to the court,
as did several others.
He is accused in aiding in the
escape of liollis Lee McCloud,
Springvale, Utah, who still is at
large and charged with assault
with intent to kill. Victim in the
case was Albert Jerry Bowles, 24,
Reedsport.
Bowles and others told the court
that Leslie was present during the
altercation, in which McCloud is
said to have attempted to shoot
Bowles. The gun misfired, and
Bowles claims he then became
victim of a gun-whipping.
But Leslie and his son, who was
near the scene, claimed they only
sought to aid McCloud, who, oth
er witnesses said, was pummeled
by neighbors when the incident
was broken up. McCloud, in some
way, fell or was thrown into Scho
field Slough, where Bowles has a
houseboat in which the alleged as
sault took place. Leslie, admitted
helping him from the water and
driving him back to Coos Bay.
McCloud now is in Utah, where
the acting governor only recently
refused extradition. A second man
accused of aiding in the escape is
Walter D. Baird, 24, Springvale,
Utah, and he is in the county jail
here awaiting preliminary hearing.
He didn't testify.
Sanders called Bowles' 18-year-old
wife, Janice, to the stand and
she corroborated her husband's
story, as did other state's witness
es. Boll also represented Leslie.
