Oklahoma's legislature h a s
been slowed up in its early ses-
sions by a somewhat sensational
investigation of an old murder
case that threatens to explode in-
to a full-scale scandal
Although the Carl De Wolf case
was considered closed many
months ago it has been regularly
forcing itself back into promin-
ence as the date for De Wolf's ex-
ecution drew nearer
To date the alleged murderer
of a Tulsa policeman has received
four stays of execution and in-
vestigations were made by res-
ponsible officials including the
state pardon and parole board In
no instance was sufficient eviden-
ce presented to change the sen-
tence or to reopen the ease
As the first legislative session
opened though Sen Kirksey Nix
from McAlester brought the centrLd states Blunchos were
to the public's attention by iahingz orie of three quintets holding al
