For testing of normality we introduce two families of statistics based on extended Polya characterization of the normal law. The first family depends on parameter $a\in(0,1)$, and for any $a$ its members are asymptotically normal and consistent for many alternatives of interest. We study the local Bahadur efficiency of these statistics as a function of $a$ and find that for common alternatives the Polya case $a=1/\sqrt{2}$ is the worst and the maximum of efficiency is attained for $a$ close to 0 or 1. The second family depends on natural $m$ and the efficiency increases when $m$ grows.
