Marnell posed as a military man of financial means, and waa rated by the authorities as a "good talker." Reed, serving a life term for the slaying of Victor Knott, Ashland po- , iicman, up to the escape try was model prisoner." Local authorities give as their opinion, "Reed has start ed out to show the warden he Is a tough guy." and has lost' hope of par don or parole. Shasta County, Calif., authorities two month ago served warrant on the warden, for the cus tody of Reed, on a burglary charge, in the event he was granted freedom. The governor recently denied a plea. for clemency following a hcnrlng. from state prison today, on a pardon granted yesterday by the governor and the state parole board, will ar rive homo today, after serving a year of a three-year sentence for conviction of ballot theft.

By Bobbin Coons HOLLYWOOD (AP) You are going on a Journey, and midway someone places a hat on your head, and then after a while the same hand takes off the hat and you go along, not missing it. At least, Katharine Hepburn wants not to miss It the "hat" of movie stardom when it is removed by the public that put It there. And that, she says, is one of the reasons she is the way she Is. She wants to be the same under the "hat" when It Is taken off as when It was put on. "This doesn't last long," she says. "But while It does one can lay the foundations for unhappy old age. 1 don't want to do that. I won't be photographed and interviewed now when I go across the country. Later, nobody will want to take my picture. If I did all that now. I might be terribly unhappy when that time comes. As it Is, I won't care. I'll be the same person I was when I came to Hollywood." Requires Energy Another reason and this Is Hep burn in a burst of explanations after long silence Is her belief in the im portance of Illusion. She admires Garbo but has no desire to meet her, and would walk around the block, if need be, to avoid meeting her for fear the Illusion might be destroyed. It is the same with other screen fa vorites of hers; she wants not to know them. And the third reason Hepburn Is like Hepburn is that in acting she requires "terrific energy," wants to devote all her energy to the task In hand, and does not want it dis-1 tracted by extraneous matters such as the business of being a star on parade. Dungarees For Comfort "I never have put on an act." she declares with a trace of Indignation. "When I came here I was afraid I'd fail, and most of all I wanted to make it possible for me to go back to the stage unhandlcapped by any great ballyhoo preceding a failure. I began wearing dungarees around the lot after I saw that everyone else was wearing comfortable clothes but anyone who knew me before I came can tell you I always did wear dun garees for comfort." Hepburn, with her hair cut short like a boy's for her role In 4 id! Katlierlne Hepburn Scarlett." may be the heroine of Max Relnhardt's production of "Twelfth Night" in the Hollywood bowl this' summer "but I hate to mention that because my picture may not be fin ished in time, and then it would be said I got cold feet and backed out. No, even after my experience on the stage In 'The Lake,' I'm eager to do this I'm a glutton for punishment. I usually agree with my criticisms, only I thought I was worse In 'The Lake' than anyone said I was." She agreed also, before the picture was made, with what critics later said of "Break of Hearts," but she thinks "Alice Adams," her latest, is a good picture and that the veteran Fred stone, whose photograph inci dentally is the only actor's she owns, Sylvia will be sensational in it.
