Billy Joe Wright, 26-year-old burglar, was transferred to Folsom Prison-the state's maximum security institution. He threatened that he might try to "go over the wall" again. William D. Werner, 24, also a convicted burglar, was or dered to the California medi cal facility at Vacaville for psychiatric examination. He said he couldn't understand why he has been sent to a "nut house." Interviewed After Hearing Both men spoke to newsmen after hour-long hearings be fore the prison disciplinary board Wednesday. "These people (prison offic ials) can drive you to a point where you will do anything," Wright grumbled. "I won't say yes or no on the question of whether I will try to escape again." But he warned that if he decided to go, the walls wouldn't stop him. "I'd just as soon get shot on the walls as anywhere else," he said. Werner told newsmen he didn't think he would ever try another escape, but he was bitter about his transfer to Vacaville. "I'd like to know the reason for sending me there-to a nut house," he said. "I'm not a nut. If you place a man where nuts run the yard, you don't know-I might end up a nut."
