Betty is in the demimode class but appears to be sincere in her desire to go straight. The article in the Minenapolis newspaper which tells all about her venture into a new life in Juneau, is as follows: “Betty (Frenchy) Ryan was re-| leased today from the city work- house as a reward for her help in three persons, two of them policemen, on charges invoiv- ing protection of the house of ill fame she formerly operated at 242 Hennepin Avenue. | “She was freed on recommenda- tion of County Attorney Ed J. Goff who said: ‘In view of all the services she has rendered the state in the past and in view of future services. maybe, I recommend the court ex-| tend leniency to this defendant.’ “As the hearing ended, Goff asked | \ her to come to his office to be served | with a subpoena to appear at trial of Clarence McClaskey, detective supervisor, September 9 on an in- dictment charging bribery. “Miss Ryan appeared in a black form-fitting dress and postage and a filmsy veil, and at one stage of the proceedings appeared some- what overcome. She asked for water “She served five months of her sentence of one year in the work- house for operating the house of ill fame. “She was ordered to leave the “The remainder of her sentence was suspended for two years, as was a $1,000 fine assessed at the same time she was sentenced. “Two indictinents, cne charging operation of a housc of ill fame at 422 Hennepin in 1937, the other charging sale of liquor without a license, were nolled. “After the hearing, she went with Mrs. Agnes Lutz, superintendent of office to be subpoenaed. “She will, she said, take a plane tonight to Chicago, then drive west enroute to JUNEAU, ALASKA, where she said she hopes to start life over again. “She has, Goff said in discussing her case, rendered valuable aid by appearing in five trials (three in- volving Charles Grunewald, assist- ant morals squad head, convicted at a third trial, of wilful neglect of duty; one involving Al Palmer- sten, morals squad head, convicted of a similar charge, and one in- volving Dave Weisman, alleged “payoff man,” convicted of com- pounding a felony). “‘We could not have obtained convictions without her,’ Goff said. ‘Although she was in a vicious busi- ness, T don't believe she is vicious as the police who permitted her to operate. “‘“Testimony disclosed police re- ceived money for extending her this favor. Of all the witnesses who has been the most truthful of any past. “‘Though there are two indict- ments pending against her, the in- dictment charging operation of a house of ill fame at 422 Hennepin did not have all the facts before it. Miss Ryan was charged when, in fact, Vera Moore was operating the place. “‘So in view of the service she has served a sufficient length of tirie, She has served considerably longer than the sentences served ! by other women charged with sim- ilar offenses. Some of them were released within 60 days.’ | “At this point Judge Luther W. Youngdah called Miss Ryan to the | stand. “He asked her if she intended to visit her parents at Frazee, Minn., | and she answered in the affirma- | tive.
