it was told by reporters of the Tulsa Tribune who were present mri-,9 years ago when the convict. John A. Cane, broke his vow and spnlle for the first time since he was imprisoned.

Cane had been lrnown h lie penitentiary for the 13 years as "The Dummy" and other prisoners spoke freely in his presence iwvmise he was deaf as well as

Illlrlhln 'o talk. A: a result. when Cane talked bpinrl a parole board in 1052.

prison authorities decided to keep secret the fact that he had been able to hear and talk all the time. Tlwv feared if other prisoners le.-irned Canc's hearing had been all right. they might kill him. Cane is still in prison serving a life term for murder.

Tribune reporter Nolan Bullock related Thursday from an inter- view with Cans the prisoner's own Itllry of his silence.

lskl-d how he could control him- si-li so well. Cane replied:

when a man makes up his mind. he can do anything. it's just like if one wants to qlnt smoking or chewing "

Pane said he was told at he mental hospital that "if I didn't start talking I would never get a mi-ole-sand also that I would in stage where I couldn't ,, .

When he returned to the prison lnrl talked to other inmates. the - word to them was that he had llllrlr'I'lzone surgery to restore his wot-cll and hearing.
