JIEDFOBD MAIL TRTBUXE, MEDFORD, OREGON, FRIDAY, MARCH 31, 1033. PAGE THREE TOLLEFSON HIS RETURN OF JUDGE FOR PRISON TREK An order committing Alvln Tollf on, former ceeriler of the Central Point State bank, to state prison. wM be sought by the district attor ney'! office as eoon Circuit Judge W. M Duncan or Klamath count7 returns to the local bench. The man date from the supreme oourt, denying the writ for a rehearing was received yesterday afternoon, Tcllefson has asked the privilege of presenting himself to the warden of the state prison, and It will prob ably be granted him. If so. he will be Blven the committment papers, and go alone to Salem. It wlU save the county the expense of transporting him there. It Is not an unusual procedure and has been granted to manv men under conviction. Tollefson was sentenced to serve two years and six months In state prison, for perpetration of a bank robbery hoax, May 10, 1933. The next day Tollefson admitted to tnen oner Iff Ralph Jennlnga that he had re ported the false holdup to cover up defalcations. The money was an re covered. The bank lost nothing. Tollefson entered a plea of guilty before Circuit Judge H. D. Norton, and was sentenoed. Soon thereafter, he filed a writ for a rehearing with the state supreme court. In all the proceedings the high oourt sustain, ed the rulings of Judge Norton. Friends of the family have .pre sented petitions to the governor, asking executive olemency. It has beer Intimated that the governor will take no action upon them. It contrary to precedent to grant par- 8x10 Photo for 75c. oles or pardons until the applicant opp. Holly Theater. has entered the penitentiary, except In extreme cases. Because of the prominence of Tol- lefsjn and bis family, and the dis turbed local situation, much pub licity was given the case. It was pic tured as a "miscarriage of justice' and "a breakdown of law ani order." The case was compared with that of Robert Glenn, who In September. 1931, attempted to hold up the bank and Tollefson, at the point of a pis tol. Tollefson fired shots at Glenn. the latter fled In an auto, one bullet hitting ttae machine. Glenn offered an allM as a defense. A Jury found him guilty, after short delib eration. He was sentenced to 15 yean, for attempting to rob a bank whfle armed. Tol'.efaon Is married and a former student of the University of Oregon, where he was a star tennis player.

E E STATE OE PORTLAND. March 31. (AP) New speculation as to which way the po litical weathervane may blow In the patronage storm was current today as It became known that Mrs. Wini fred Wlsecarver has been Indorsed by Walter M. Pierce, congressman and Democratic national committeeman. and by Congressman Charles H. Mar tin as acting postmaster at McMlnn-ville. This action was related In a special Washington, D. C. dispatch to the Oregonlan. Postmaster General James A. Farley, the correspondent said, la expected to make the appointment. Mrs. Wlsecarver Is a sister-in-law of Ray Wlsecarver of McMlnnville, who has been prominently mentioned for the post of collector of internal revenue in Oregon under the new j administration. But in view of the, 2900 a year Job going to Mrs. Wise- carver, considerable speculation is ! heard as to whether two patronage I awards would probably be made to J one family. James Maloney of Pendleton, who last year was a candidate for state treasurer, and Wlsecarver have been men most generally spoken of for revenue collector. It was believed here by those generally familiar with the situation that If Wlsecarver is not favorably considered, the col lectorshlp will be handed to the Pen dleton man.
