Chessman Hopes Fade Death Penalty Repealer Rejected in California SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP)-A, marathon, hour hearing ended early today with narrow defeat in the California Legislature for Gov. Edmund G. Brown's bill to repeal the death penalty. The 8-7 vote by the Senate Judiciary Committee may have shattered Caryl Chessman's last hope in his year fight to escape the gas chamber.

Sen. Edwin J. Regan, committee chairman, had said before the hearing he expected the Senate to adjourn the special session on capital punishment the day after committee action on the bill was defeated. He indicated fit adjournment was expected today. Introduction of a similar bill in the Assembly was not planned and no further legislative action was expected on the death penalty before Chessman's scheduled execution May 2.

It was Brown's reprieve of the convict-author and his calling of a special session on capital punishment that touched off the great debate. Yet, as if by tacit agreement, not a single witness mentioned the controversial prisoner by name. The long, almost subdued hearing by the all-lawyer committee began at 9 a.m. Wednesday before a jampacked audience. It ended at 1 a.m.

on a dramatic note. Deputy District Attorney J. Miller Leavy of Los Angeles disclosed that Barbara Graham, fourth woman to be executed in California history, confessed her guilt in the last few minutes of her life in 1955. He said the 32-year-old convicted slayer of an elderly widow made the admission to the late Warden Harley 0. tee*ts of San Quentin prison.

Leavy, who was Chessman's prosecutor, was the final witness. He said he related the Graham story because a movie of her life left the impression she was innocent. Even as the Senate committee debated the death penalty question, the California Supreme Court Wednesday turned down Chessman's latest petition. This one challenged legality of his new May 2 execution date. A.

L. Wirin, one of his attorneys, told newsmen here the decision ended Chessman's court appeals. Irontonian Guilty, but Wins Mercy 0. Gazette Thursday, March 10, 1959 "Chessman's fate is now ly in the hands of the governor unless the Legislature takes favorable action," he said. Brown, after giving Chessman a 60-day reprieve Feb.

19, said he would let him die if the state's lawmakers rejected his plea to abolish capital punishment. The 38-year-old prisoner was convicted in 1948 on charges of kidnap-robbery which involved forcing two young women to perform an unnatural sex act. The Senate committee listened to proponents of repeal for seven hours. It wasn't until 8:30 p.m. that opponents--chiefly law enforcement officers -stepped up to the witness stand in the theatertype hearing room.

Witnesses supporting the bill hit two main themes: That capital punishment does not deter crime: That it is "barbaric" and "brutalizes society." All but one of the opposition. witnesses argued that the death penalty is a greater deterrent than any other form of punishment. The exception, was Dist. Atty. Roy Gustafson Ventura County, who said that the death penalty is no greater deterrent than life imprisonment.
