 BY PRISONER
Both Convicts Were Sup- posed to Have Been Friends = Affair Took Place in Prison Yard

Boston. May 11-UP)-Celestiao Ardolino, state prison convict, was in a probably dying condition at Massachusetts General hospital to- day, victim of a mysterious stabbing by a fellow prisoner. Charges of attempted murder were being pre- pared against Dominic Procopio, who calmly handed over knife with a four-inch blade to prison guards after stabbing Ardolino in the face, stomach and arm. The att tack was made near a prison door as the 800 prisons were gathered in the huge yard for recreation. Procopio and Ardolino. long regard- ed as friends. stood talking. Sud- denly Ardolino was seen to slump to the ground. Two prisoners who saw the stabbing tainted and two others had to be carried to the in- firmary.
 Prison officials were unable to as- sign any motive to the attack. Rel- ations between Procopio and Ar dolino appeared to have been friend ly. They shook hands Saturday night before they were locked in their cells Procopio was sentenced to serve 19 to 20 years for the manslaughter of Bruno Montegna, found stabbed to death in Cam bridge in 1923. Ardolno was parol- ed after sentence for a murderous assault on a policeman but was re- sentenced for violating his parole. He was serving 10 years.
