JUDGE GRAVES
!. TO SENTENCE!
RED TOMORROW

Sentence OF Thomas E. PMett,
2o-year-old Chicago youth, who
was a member of the gang which
held up a poker game in Aledo on
the night Of Sept. Is, in which Rob
ert Swearingen was shot to- death
and who pleaded guilty to murder
and was the states star witness
in the murder trial last week, will
be pronounced tomorrow by Judge
Emery C. Graves. Both C. B. Nc
Coy of Chicago and James A. Allen
of Aledo, attorneys for Pruett. are
expected to make pleas for leniency
for him before Judge Graves. Prh-
Dett's mother, Mrs. Mary English, OF
Chicago, who has not seen her son
since he was arrested in ChicaSo
last September, is expected to be
present when sentence is pro-
nounced.' What the recommended
ton Of the states attorney in ref
erence to Pruett's sentence will be
is not known, but it is expected
that a lighter sentence will be ask
ed in consideration of the value OF
Pruett's testimony in the trial.
Pruett appears to be the most
light-hearted of any Of the three
men confined in the Jail. He talks
freely of what he will do when he
reaches Joliet and plans on writing
a book on his experiences in the

Whether formal sentence will be
pronounced tomorrow on Sherman

ton for a new trial will be argued

er courts, as Wood is known, to
have plenty Of financial backing.

Robert Tomlinson of |Galesburg,

ney Malley of Galesburg will de
fend the men. The minimum SEN
