THE TENNESSEAN, Thursday, Oct. 268 1972 55 Test Move Puzzles Ira Leighton By DWIGHT LEWIS Ira Leighton, convicted in January of 1943 of murder, said yesterday he does not understand why he has to undergo a psychiatric examination to gain his freedom from prison. "I don't really see why they want me to take an examination when I have never attacked anybody here or done anything to anybody since I've been here," Leighton added. YESTERDAY morning, the Tennessee Board of 1 Pardons and Paroles defined action on Leighton's parole case until results from a psychiatric examination the board asked him to take are returned. Leighton, 48, who is serving a sentence for the murder of Lawrence County Sheriff Cleve Weathers, submitted a signed statement to the prison's prerelease office agreeing to undergo a psychiatric examination.

In his statement, however, Leighton made it clear that he does not want any electrical treatment to be performed on him. THE BOARD members said after the hearing that they "want to be sure Leighton could live on the outside without harming anyone." During Leighton's hearing, it was brought out that while Services Today For Mrs. Coles Services for Mrs. Louise Bell Coles, 69, former associate society editor of the Tennessean, will be at 11 a.mtoday at St. George's Episcopal Church with the Rev.

James L. Johnson, rector of the church, officiating. Burial will be in Mt. Olivet Cemetery. MRS.

COLES died Monday at her home, 3905 Abbott Martin Road. A native of Nashville, she was the daughter of John A. and Anna Walker Edwards Bell. She was educated in private schools and Ward Belmont College. She was in 1933 to Zachary marrieds a plant superintendent for 0'Bryan Brothers, Inc.

He died in 1960. MRS. COLES had been a personnel manager for Sears Roebuck and Co. before joining the Tennessean staff where she was both an associate society editor and special assistant to the late J. Percy Priest, when he was managing editor of the Tennessean.

Mrs. Coles was a member of St. George Episcopal Church, the Junior League of Nashville, the Ladies Hermitage Association, the Cheekwood Association, the Centennial Club and the Belle Meade Country Club. Survivors include a daughter, Mrs. Elizabeth Coles Bonds, Nashville; a son, Zachary A.

Coles Gales Ferry, and five grandchildren. he was out on bond in 1966, he went to Cleveland, Ohio, and got into an argument with his brother. The brother, whom Leighton described as very, Leighton mean, but did was shot by not die. In September 1971, Leighton lost a chance to gain his freedom when Gov. Winfield Dunn rejected a recommendation for executive clemency.

THE PARDONS and Parole Board which then served only part-time, had recommended that Leighton's 99-year sentence be commuted to time served. A previous parole board recommended Leighton for executive clemency in 1965, but Govs. Frank Clement and Buford Ellington let the commutation order go. unsigned. Members of the Weathers family had argued against Leighton's release from prison but yesterday no member of the family appeared to argue the case.

LEIGHTON HAS said previously he feels political pressures caused Clement and Ellington to decline to sign his commutation papers. Leighton, who until about two months ago worked in the state prison's radio room, began teaching himself electronics a little more than 20 years ago. He told the board that if he is granted parole he hopes to open his own television and radio shop. In another case yesterday, the board accepted the request of Grady Gene Mayes of Winchester that his case be passed until he undergoes surgery Nov. 9.

MAYES, 24, serving a three to five-year term for third degree burglary, was accused by prison officials of setting himself on fire in April of 1971 after being involved in a fight with a prison guard. Mayes, however, contends that prison officials started the fire and his lawyers from his hometown are now in the process of trying to prove that Maves did not start the fire which left him critically burned. In other cases during its hearing at the West Nashville institution, the board recommended 14 prison inmates for parole and declined nine others. Gun Accident Kills Mt. Juliet Youth A Mt.

Bittersweet TV Movie Touches Sensitive Subject HOLLYWOOD (AP) William Link, a short, bearded writer-producer, said, 'If anybody had told me a year ago I'd be doing a movie like this for television I wouldn't have believed it." His partner, Richard Levinson, tall and moustachioed, said, "We thought there would be no market for this in television and to our surprise, there was. Everyone accuses television of being bland, but this is an adult theme." THE MOVIE is "That Certain Summer," a bittersweet view of a few days in the life of a man, his former wife, his son and his homosexual lover.

It will be seen as an ABC Wednesday Movie of the Week Nov. 1. "It's not a piece about homosexuality in our Levinson said. "It's about a father and his son. We tried carefully not to make piece of propaganda out very a of it." Levinson and Link were the writers and producers of the TV movie "My Sweet Charlie" and are the creators of "Columbo," "Mannix" and "McCloud." Currently, they are writing a script for a theatrical movie, "'The Hindenburg," based on a book about the flight of the German dirigible which ended in disaster.

THE IDEA FOR "That Certain Summer' originated when the partners met a divorced man who told them that his son was coming for a visit. When they realized that the father was a homosexual living with another man they knew he was facing a dilemma that would make for exciting drama. The film centers on the father's efforts to hide his homosexuality from his son and the son's discovery of i it. Levinson said, "No one is a villain. The man has to live his life the way he has to.

But if he does, he hurts his son. If he doesn't, he hurts himself. Each has moments when he's not nice. They all have fallibilities." LEVINSON AND Link talked to homosexuals and psychiatrists and showed the script to them. "I think homosexuals were more concerned with images than with good drama," Levinson said.

"How can we offer a solution? The population can't even agree on what homosexuality is." LEVINSON SAID Hal Holbrook, the father, and Martin Sheen did not have any fears about playing the parts of homosexuals. Link said, "I asked one actor if he would take the part. He said he would be terrified at the thought of playing a homosexual. I asked him if he would play Hitler. He said sure." "The only problem for the actors was technical," Levinson said.

"Hal said approaching the role was very difficult. Playing it was not. It was the same with the script. Thinking about it was very difficult. But the writing went swiftly.
