 The Wethersfield official also re- fused to comment on the deferinent of the Fleming petition, other than to say that more information would be needed before the board took action on the application. He pointed out, however, that the de- ferment did not constitute any dis paragement of F1eming's prison record, appending tNe remark that the prisoners behavior had been excellent both at Wethersf1eld and at the state prison farm.
 Three Filed Petitions
 Early last fall, Fleming, together with Johnston and Carl D. Olsen, former local banker serving 8 to i2 year term for his complclty In the conspiracy case, filed petitions for pardon with the state board ol pardons.
 Johnston's application was denied, while those of Olsen and Fleming were withdrawn on the morning be- fore the board met. It was indicat- ed at the time that the latter pre-" ferred to place his case before the board of paroles.
 Principals in the case, ex-Mayor Hayes and ex-Controller Leary. each received sentences of 10 to l5 years, and were ordered committed to Wethersfield after the. state su- preme court of errors had denied their appeal. :.
 Leary's subsequent escape marked the beginning of 8 nationwide man-hunt which led to no more tangible results than series of grourdless rumors having the fugi- tive in Florida, Mexico. Con11ecti- cut, Canada, and numerous other localities.

 State headquarters, 1t is under stood, will not even acquaint de- fsnse councils or blackout commit tees in the states 169 towns as to when the statewide trial will be held. It is planned to make it 8 full-scale test of the adequacy of present air raid warden and other civilian defense set-ups.
 The success of the trial blackout nere Sunday night has led local au- thorities to believe that Waterbury will rate highly for effectiveness when the statewide test is called.
 Reports of sectors and zones on the success of Sundays trial were not available for publication today, but all local authorities said that they showed almost 100 per cent CO., operation. A blackout ordinance to provide penalties for violators of blackout regulations Is now being drawn up by an alderman!c com- mittee. Many other cities now have such ordinances in effect.
