Portlander Convicted In Dope Case PORTLAND (AP) Pralmus Crosby, 33, Portland, was con victed by a federal court jury Tuesday of three counts of an in dictment charging sale and pos session of heroin. Chester J. Wolski, a federal nar cotics agent, testified during the trial that he had seen Crosby de liver heroin to Eugene Westbrook, 76, Portland, a government informer. After the defense had question ed all its scheduled witnesses Ray D. Robinette, the defense attor ney, called Westbrook as a hos tile witness. He had not been call ed by the prosecution. Westbrook told U.S. Dist. Judge Gus Solomon he was afraid to testify because he might be sub jeeted to bodily harm. Solomon turned to Crosby and informed him that if any harm came to Westbrook, the court would weigh it in arriving at sentence. The judge said, "One man was killed, and that's what we are trying to guard against." He said after one Portland nar cotics trial, an informer was murdered. Crosby assured Judge Solomon he did not mean to harm West brook but merely wanted to clear up reports that the man had made false statements. Crosby based his defense on the argument that' he was the buyer and that Westbrook was trying to sell the heroin to him. The judge ordered a pre-sentence investigation.
