Member Audit Bureau of Circulation, FORTY-SEVENTH YEAR No. ,178 M'LAREN 10 SERVE TEi STATE PRIS( Supreme Court Upholds Conviction of Portland Vice-Ring Youths In cluding Officer's Son. Allen McLaren, a Portland youth, whose father, W. (J.

With him, as fel low convicts, will be Gladwin awpaugh and Archie Livingston, sentenced to serve five and twa years respectively. The three youths were convict ed before Judge J. U. Campbell in the lower court for Clackamas county of the crime of rape. The supreme court today, in an opinion written by Justice Coshow, af firmed the lower court, declaring that "the defendants had a fair and Impartial trial, the judgment of the court was merciful and is affirmed." Chief Justice McBrirfe and Jus tices Burnett and liund cououtred. W. G. McLaren, father of Allen McLaren, has for yearn been inter ested in rescue and aid work for prisoners, und has neen identified prominently with organizations for that purpose. The three youths were indicted Jointly, In the appeal they as sign 23 alleged errors in the lower court. Among theee they com plained about remarks made by District Attorney Livy Stipp in hH opening statement to the effect that he would prove Roscoe P. Hurat, attorney for McLaren, at tempted to intimidate the prose cuting witness and her mother prior to the trial. The supreme court holds that Stipp was In good faith. The appellants also alleged er ror upon the court's refusal to compel the state to elect the par ticular offense upon which it ruled for conviction. Only one ffeiiee was charged in the indict ment. There was no attempt by the state to prove actual rape by either McLaren or Livingston, but the evidence indicated that both had illicit relations with the proa ocuting witness immediately aft er rape had been committed by Lawpaugb. "The three were acting togeth er," says the opinion, "and their conduct during the entire time they were with the young ladies wa admissable for the purpose of showing the part they took in the commission of the crime charged against all three of them. It was proper to induct the defendants together and to try them togeth er." Other allocations of error are not upheld by the opinion. ARMY AND NAVY HELD EFFICIENT Swampscott, Mase., July 28. (A, P.)
