STATE TIGH7ENS
HOLD ON LAWTON
PASTOR AT TRIAL
Secretly Recorded Conversa-
ton will be Introduced
Today; Men Were at
Church Night Of Fire.

LAWTON, Okla.-The record of an
alleged conversation between the Rev.
Thomas j. Irwin and II. c. Lewis.
secretly recorded recently with the aid
Of telephone device was expected to-
day al the resumption Of the prelim-
mary hearing OF arson charges against
Irwin and Lewis for an alleged incen-
diary fire at the Lawton First Pres
byterian church on the night OF April
%, last.
The charges against the minister. who
resigned the pastorate Of the church
some time ago, and against Lewis, u
former elder, according TO County At
torney Fletcher Riley. are based on
statements the two made, while in IN
ante-room at the courthouse waiting to
be called before court Of inquiry. Riley
said their conversation was recorded,
unknown to them.
At the opening session OF the hearing
yesterday, B. NJ. McQuinn. an elder in
the church under Mr.. Irwin, testified
he aided Irwin and Lewis in guarding
the church on the night OF the fire and
that the three left the building for home
shortly before the flames broke out in
the annex. McQuinn said Irwin and
Lewis were alone in the annex for
time, but that he was sure fire could
not have been ignited without his
knowledge. He said he saw no indi-
cation OF fire before he left the build
ing, in company with Lewis and Irwin.
that all three walked about two and a
half blocks before they were attracted
by fire alarm and returned 10 find
the blaze. He said the decision to
guard the church was prompted by
discovery OF an effort some days before
to set fire to motion picture equipment
in the building.
