Miss Parrott 10 Face
Trial in February for
Aiding in Desertion
Grand Jury's Indictment
Charges Three Counts,
Including Subversion
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
MIAMI, Fla, Jan. 9-Authoress
Ursula Parrot is scheduled for trial
in February on a three-cou Fed
eral indictment growing from her
self-styled sudden impulse" freeing
of soldier from military prison
stockade three days after Christmas.
A grand jury returned the indict-
ment yesterday, charging her first
with subversive activities in under
mining loyalty, discipline and morale
of the armed forces.
Other charges were enticing the
soldier, Pvt. Michael Neely Bryan.
26. to desert, and harboring a de-
serter.
The fiction writer remained at
liberty under 81 ZOO bond.
10-Year Term Possible.
Assistant District Attorney Ernest
L. Duhaime said the penalties for
conviction on the subversive charge
are a maximum of 10 years in
prison and a fine of $4,000.
1t all began December % when
Miss Parrott, now married to her
fourth husband, obeyed what she
called at preliminary hearing "a
sudden impulse" and fled from the
stockade on Miami Beach with Pvt.
Bryan concealed in her car. She
returned him to Federal authorities
"a hours later.
Miss Parrott had gone to the
stockade to visit Pvt. Bryan. and
had given her car keys to a guard
when she entered. She said she
suddenly got the idea to take him
with her after the keys had been re-
turned to her and Pvt. Bryan &C.
companied her to the car.
Pleaded Innocent.
At preliminary hearing she
pleaded innocent to the charges.
A. P. Kitchin, agent in charge of
the Federal Bureau of Investigation,
said Pvt Bryan informed one of his
agents that he had been sentenced
to 20 days for flying without leave
to New York on a ticket given him
by Miss Parrott.
The author took the blame for the
escape in statement to the FBI.
Mr.. Kitchin said the soldier, a mu-
sician before entering the Army, was
wanted in New York on a charge of
transporting marijuana, a drug, and
that Miss Parrott was listed as
witness.
