Convict Who Served
As Own Counsel Gets
10 Years for Assault

A graying convict is back In
the Maryland penitentiary today
after losing a determined court
room battle in which he acted as
his own attorney.
He is Ronald Harris, 45-year-
old maniac bandit" who was &C
quilted in 1943 of the murder of
a Baltimore policeman. He Is
serving a 10-year term for auto
theft.
Harris. who studied law in odd
moments during q years in va
rious prisons was sentenced yes
terday to an additional 10-year
penitentiary term in Circuit Court
at Upper Marlboro.
Maximum Sentence Given.
Judge Charles C. Marbury i'm
posed a maximum sentence after
Harris was convicted Of assault
ing an attendant in an attempted
robbery at the bus terminal in
T. B.. Md. March 6, 1914.
A jury of IL men and one
woman deliberated 35 minutes
after Harris argued for seven
hours with Judge Marbury, States
Attorney A. Gwinn Bowie and his
assistant, Hervey Machen.
The court ordered the new SEN
tence to start at the end of the
present term, which began in 1914.
Harris indicated he would appeal.
Waged Hard Fight.
Dressed in a brown sweater. tie
and blue denim trousers and wear
ing glasses, the tall, thin-faced
defendant waged a hard fight.
He contended the police framed
him. They're mad, he said. be-
cause he was acquitted of shoot
ing the Baltimore policeman. He
implied that the frame-up also
sent him to the penitentiary on
the auto theft conviction.
One of three penitentiary in
mates sum oned by Harris
brought laughter to the courtroom
when he told how he and another
man had built up a nice little
bookmaking business while serv-
ing in the Maryland House OF
Correction some years back.
The principal witness for the
State was a man named JOSEPH
F. Williams. Williams, who wa!
convicted with Harris of autt
theft in 1945 and served two year
! in the penitentiary, testified tina
he knew absolutely that Harri
was the man who beat the at
tendant and tried to rob the bu
