HUSBAND0F
MRS, PHILLIPS
BEING HELD
Movements at Time of Wife's
Escape Still to be Explain.
ed Say Police
NO TRACE OF WOMAN
Believed to Have Gone Into
Mexico-Many False
CleWs
NO TRACE OF WOMAN

Los Angeles, Dec. 6.-The search
for Mrs. Clara Phillips, convicted OF
beating Mrs. Alberta Tremaine
Meadows to death with a hammer
and who escaped early yesterday
from the Los Angeles County jail,
was in active progress today
throughout southern California and
Lower California.
Despite various other tips and
clues, sheriff's despites generally
held to their original belief the
"hammer murderss" had fled across
the boarder into Mexico and plans
were made to extend the search for
her as far south as Ensenda. on the
west coast Of the Lower California
peninsula, about 90 miles south Of
San Diego, California today. They
were not overlooking other direc-
tions, and had asked San Francisco
authorities to join in the hunt.
The border between the Califor-
MAS, from Tijuana, near San Diego
to the Arizona line and especially at
Calexico, California and its Lower
California neighbor, Mexicali, was
being closely watched.
Armour Lee Phillips, the convict
ed woman's husband, upon whose
story of his movements the "a hours
preceding his wife's escape "some
/ doubt has been cast" according to
sherlff's deputies, was still in
technical custody early today.
" Although not placed in Jail he
was in charge Of Frank Dewar, a
Deputy Sheriff, with whom he slept
last night and with whom he was to
take his meals "until further
. notice." it was said.
Receive Many Reports
Since the escape, the sheriff's Of
flee and the police have received
many reports that Mrs. Phillips has
been at various places. ~.
One of the .lates rumors which at
first was regarded with extreme
hope by Sheriff VIM. I. Treger, came
in a telephone call from Long
Beach. 1t was from man who
withheld his name, but gave what
he said was the street humber of q
house where he said Mrs. Phillips
was in hiding. A\posse, headed by
the sheriff rushed to Long Beach,
only to find there was no such ad-
dress. Efforts to trace the call
were begun.
Relatives of Mrs. Phillips ex-
pressed surprise when informed of
her escape which, it was reported,
was planned during a telephone con-
versation Monday afternoon, when
she was permitted to use a direct
line from the Jail without, interfer-
ence from the auth critics.
Later that night, it was declared,
she feigned illness to assure herself
ct as much privacy as possible in
filing through the bars of her cell
window with files smuggled to her
in some way.
