A Jury, which deliberated as
little more than six hours, re-'
turned a verdict of guilty late last
night with a recommendution that;
Bryant be imprisoned in the Ore-' ;

The state had demanded the death;

Hrynnt stabbed Diekerson the ' -night
of December 17, when ho.
accosted the grid star and Mao
Troxell, Bryant's alleged fiancee,
and an encounter followed. Diek
erson, heavier than Bryant, bore,
htnv to the flrround. Bryant plunged T
a long pointed butcher knife Into
Dlckerson's side, puncturing a
lung. He died four days later. .!
The' verdict brought to a closo '
one of Oregon's outstanding mur
der trials. Bryant, reared In Cor- I
vallls, n. little Willamette valley
college town, was well known a '
was Diekerson. The .case created
considerable 'excitement In the
town and each day of the. trial'
found the courtroom crowded with
onlookers. 1 ;
; It was a story of a small town .

Wash'ngton to work and letters
followed from Miss Troxell.
When he returned, testimony
indicated, ho started drlnkln and
more than once the pretty wait

One night when Miss Troxell
feared Bryant, she asked Dicker

night Bryant armed himself with
a butcllr Unite and waylaid them.
He contended the knife was to be
used at a plcnio, but Miss Troxell
said the kjllfo, according to Bry
ant, was to ho used to "slit some
body's back." '
Bryant accepted the verdict sto
ically. H's mother collapsed.
