William Asbury, y.Newspapermen Baker and

Asbury and radio newsmenBrooks will ask questions aboutt h e W a s h i n g t o n S t a t ePenitentiary at 8 p.m. April 16at Cordiner Hall.

Evans, Rhay and Brocket!have agreed to answer. WallaWalla Police Chief A. L. "Bert"Watts and County Sheriff ArtKlundt rejected offers to appearon the program.

Asbury and Baker, in theirweekly columns, have invitedreaders to submit questions tobe asked. Brooks said his radiostation has been invi t ingq u e s t i o n s i n s p o tadvertisements eight times aday.

All three said questions thathave come in have been frompeople who have more or lessmade up their minds on theprison.

Baker, who said he hasreceived one question, a verbalone, said he has been getting"street corner philosophy"when he invites questions.

"Most of the people havesomething to tell, not somethingto ask," said Baker. "Nobodyknows as much about it as thenormal guy in the tavern."

Brooks said he has not beengetting a "flood of mail" aboutthe forum. He said, however,that he received one questionfor Rhay. Most questions havebeen for the governor.

Asbury said he did notconsider his nine responses toobad. "One response means 100are thinking about it."

He said he has receivedq u e s t i o n s c o n c e r n i n gpenitentiary costs and theirrelationship to the costs ofpublic education, the fact that_

Walla Walla County bears thecost of p rosecu t ion forpenitentiary crimes, relation ofcrime to biochemical imbalanceand the governor's master planfor prisons.

Asbury said he has receivedquestions from a prisoner and apenitentiary employe and willreceive them from the inmates'resident governmental council.

He said some legitimatequestions have been "veiled" ina long statement, which is"typical of something like this."

Brooks. Asbury, Baker andforum moderator John Reesewill meet with their questions inhand and decide which ones willbe used in the forum.

No questions will be takenfrom the floor.

Questioning will be split intothree areas. Baker will askabout philosophy of prisonr e f o r m . B r o o k s a b o u tcommuni ty relations andAsbury about mechanics ofrunning the prison.

In a letter to the participants,Reese explained the format ofthe forum.

He said questions will beasked only by the threenewsmen, no questions willcome from the floor, asking ofquestions will be rotated,"more or less," but onequestioner will be allowed todevelop particular subjectareas.

He said response from theperson asked the questions will"hopefully" be limited to threeminutes, but that it will not be astrict time limit.

Then.- each of the otherpanelists will be allowed aminute to a minute and a half tocomment
