Prisoners Flee,
Soon Returned
Harry L. Patterson, 35, and
William Downs, 22, got outside
Oregon State prison walls in an
scape attempt Saturday after
noon, but were captured with
in quarter hour and returned
within the stockade.
The pair picked up guards'
hats in the office of Deputy
Warden Larry O'Brien, and in
some way not revealed got
civilian clothes and raincoats
elsewhere. Thus disguised they
presented forged guard identif
ication cards at the main inside
gate and were admitted through
by a guard.
Thev aoDarently were con
fused with several new guards
who are being trained at the
prison.
Patterson was sent up from
Deschutes county on a seven
year sentence for forgery, and
Downs is doing a 25-year rap
for assault and armed robbery
in Douglas county.
The pair aroused suspicion
of some guards when they
seemed to be confused after
they got ouslde and an alarm
was sounded. Ellsworth Her
der, captain of guards, set out
in his car and overhauled the
.two at the gate to the prison
avenue at 25th and State.
Using his gun as a persuader,
he made them lie down. Her
der hailed a passing motorist
who carried the convicts back
to prison while Herder cov
ered with his gun.
