ANOTHER SLAYER ASKS LIFE TERM WASHINGTON, Sept. 18.—Hopes for a life sentence instead of death on the gallows were raised today in the breast of 22 year-old Edgar Randolph Perrygo, who has been a prisoner in the district jail since he killed an aged woman four years ago. Perrygo was condemned to die for the crime; but the outcome of the Leopold-Loeb case in Chicago has caused his attorneys to urge a reharing for the youth, confident that Judge Cavarly's decision will stand as a precedent for extending greater elementy to Perrygo. The appeal will begin up by the supreme court next month. Allenista testified Perrygo was not normal mentally and that his twisted mind was not able to grasp the enormity of the crime which he committed. Among these alienants was Dr. Wm. K. White, one of the psychiatrists who testified for the defense in the Leopold-Loeb trial, and whose testimony helped to save the Chicago slayers from the gallows. "I think that I am no more deserving of a death sentence than those two boys, Leopold and Loeb," Perrygo said today. "I am not down on my knees trying for mercy doesn't come to people who cry." "I was only 17 when the crime was committed. That is mighty young. A boy doesn't know what he is doing when he is that young. "The doctors say I'm crazy, I don't know whether I'm crazy or not. But I know there was something wrong with me when I killed that old lady, if I did kill her like they say." "When the trial comes up again in October—that is my appeal—I pray to God that the jury and judge will think like Judge Caverly did. If I get a life sentence I know I can get a parole some day." "I am not a rela criminal." "Again, I want everyone to know I'm not whining, not kicking—but I just don't think I deserve" WOMEN ACCEPT POSITIONS AS POLICE OFFICERS Miss Alice Ellis (above), of Berkeley, Calif., graduate of the University of California, is Ihics, N.

I didn't know before today that there was much of a chance for me, but now I believe there is." Young Perrygo came to Washington from Oxon Hill, Maryland, where his mother, five brothers and two sisters operate a truck farm. He came here to get married but had no money. Someone gave him a drink of whiskey, the first drink he had ever tasted, and from then he says that he remembered very little of what happened. The slain woman Mrs. Mary Faithful, was found dead and an iron bar smeared with blood lay beside her. Her savings, $1,800 were gone. Perrygo did not make any defense, apparently being unable to understand all that had taken place. The alienists described his mental condition as "homnambulistic tendencies."
