Judge of Jackson County, sign an
order for the county to pay for a
transcript of the evidence In the ap
peal of Melvln Franklin Bailee, serv
ing seven and one-half years In state
prison for conviction of a statutory
offense. Involving a seven-year-old
Central Point girl.

two occasions, has declined to sign an
order for the evidence transcript. The
cost Is estimated at $312.
At the same time, counsel for Sal
lee will ask the high court for an ex
tension of time until October 1, to
perfect the appeal.
District Attorney George A. Cod
ding said today his office would op
pose the plea for transcript fundi on
the grounds the conclusiveness of the
evidence on which Bailee was con

that the record In the case was un- j
duly long and that there were no

the county to pay the appeal

Bailee, a former BERA worker, was
found guilty by a circuit court Jury

Tho trial lasted four days. The evi

the little girl Into an auto, driven
her to a point near the Bear Creek
bridge and attacked her. He was
Identified by the child as her assail
ant and by a Central Point woman
who saw the girl enter the auto, and
noted the license numbers.
Bailee offered an alibi, supported
by a half dozen witnesses, that he
