The certificate, if granted, will give Banks attorney right to proceed with their appeal to the supreme court: If denied, It means they have come to the end of thetr legal recourse, ard that the appeal will not be filed. Banks will be represented by At torney Charles E. Hardy of Eugene and Attorney Fran J. Lonergan of Portland. The state will be repre sented by Assistant Attorney -General Relph E. Moody. The probable certificate Is based upon the following contentions: That Banks did not have a fnlr trial; That the court erred In Its In structions to the Jury; That a. woman bailiff, In charge of the women members of the Jury, was guilty of alleged misconduct; That the assistant attorney-general, In the closing arguments to the Jury, was guilty of improper conduct In referring to Banks as "a moral cow ard hiding behind the skirts of hl wife-: And, upon technicalities of law. By a decision of Judge George F. 6k ip worth of Eugene last week, the arguments on the writ of probable cause were referred to the supreme court for decision.
