Hall and Mrs. Heady
Are Denied Marriage
Before Execution
BY the Associated Press

KANSAS CITY, Nov. 20.-The
condemned kidnap-killers of g.
-old Bobby Greenlease wait
ed in Jail cells today for their
last trip-the trip to the lethal
gas chamber in the Missouri
State Prison just one week be-
fore Christmas.
Carl Austin Hall and Mrs.
Bonnie Brown Heady will be
executed at the same ,time-as
soon as possible after 1901 am.
December 18.
They showed little emotion
yesterday as they heard a Fed
eral judge, carrying out a jury's
recommendation, sentence them
to die.
But an Episcopal priest who
visited them later said the kid
napers appeared remorseful.
when I saw him previous to
the trial on two occasions his
first statements were those of
remorse," said the Rev. George
Evans. II saw him again this
afternoon and at his request
talked to Mrs. Heady. This was
the first time I had seen Mrs.
Heady. She likewise expressed
great contrition."
Marriage Wish Ruled Out.
The condemned couple wants
to get married. Mrs. Heady,
divorced from her first husband
a year ago, was quoted by court
officials last night as saying she
wanted a wedding and Roy K.
Dietrich, Halls contemporaries
attorney, said today the once
divorced ex-convict had ex-
pressed similar desire. Dietrich
quoted Hall as telling 4 visiting
minister:
Il made my promise to Bonnie
Heady that I would marry her
and one of the things I have al
ways tried to do is to keep my
promises"
However, the Justice Depart
ment announced in Washington
today it would not permit the
marriage. 1t said it had re-
ceived no formal request, but,
speaking for the United States
Bureau of Prisons, ruled that
the marriage would not be pos
Sible.
Both Hall and Mrs. Heady
were previously married and di-
vorced.
Appeal of Verdict Unlikely.
There was small chance of an
appeal of the couples death
sentence. Dietrich said he saw
nothing to warrant such action.
The 34-year-old playboy and
his 41-year-old alcoholic mis-
tresS watched dry-eyed as the
tragic case drew to a dramatic
close on the fourth day of the
trial.
They seemed relieved as they
were hustled out of the court
room, handcuffed to waist chains
and closely guarded by United
States deputy marshals on their
way back to their separate cells
in the Jackson County jail.
How long they will be held
here before their transfer to
death row behind the drab walls
of the State prison had not been
decided today.
Early Shift Expected.
But Acting United States Mar
shal William Tatman indicated
they would be moved to the
prison at Jefferson City within
few days.
Mrs. Heady will be the first.
woman to die in the Missouri
gas chamber. The 80 men who
have been executed there have
been stripped to the shorts to
lessen the possibility of gas
clinging to their clothing.
Arrangements have been made
for Mrs. Heady to be clad in
long black shorts and a black
halter. She will be blindfolded,
as will Hall.
After the jury retired for its
deliberations, a death recommen-
dation for Hall was decided on
immediately. However, one
juror held out for life imprison-
ment for Mrs. Heady, it was
learned last night. He finally
agreed on the death penalty for

send the program directly to
Congress or return it to the Com
missioners to let them make that
move.

Holding 81 Million
In Tax Refunds
By the Associated Press

BALTIMORE, May 14.-If you
think the Federal Government
owes you an income tax refund
it might be a good idea to check
with the Internal Revenue Bu-
reau.
The bureaus Maryland Office
says it is holding about 81 mil
lion in tax refunds for about
$4,000 persons who haven't
claimed them.
Refunds amounting to $5l8,-
900 are due 8.643 persons on 1851
tax payments and another S42.-
900 is due about 5000 persons on
1852 returns.
The average 1851 refund was
$50 and they totaled approxi-
mately $48 million. The 1852 re-
funds involved more than $50
million, an average of $71.
Because the post Office will
now forward a refund check to
a second address if the taxpayer
moves after filing his tax return,
the number of undelivered re-
funds has been cut this year.
The largest 1852 refund ex-
ceeded $4,000 and the smallest
was two cents. But the process
ing work for both was the same
Unclaimed checks have been
returned because they were in
correctly addressed or the tax
payer has moved.
L. A. Chamberlain, director
of the Maryland Office, reports
additional large sums are being
held for as far back as 1943.
That's the year Withholding sys-
TEN went into effect. Between
1000 and 5000 refunds for each
year up until 1850 are still out
standing.
