PHOENIX, Ariz., Oct. 30.-Ruth
Judd to me is not the "blonde
Tigress," the party girl" the
murderer of two girls we knew as
unfortunates, needing medical
and moral help.
We lived together in our Monta
Vista Street duplex for three
months, while she was making
one of the most gallant fights I
ever saw a woman display in her
effort to exc out an existence.
Did Lot Of Work
Three nights a week, between
December Is and March 1, while
she was my roommate, she went
to night school to learn stenog-
raphy. Three nights a week she
washed out the uniforms she wore
at the clinic-She always wanted
to look immaculate.
Ruth Judd spent her Sundays
cleaning our apartment.
Occasionally she would 60 out
for an automobile ride. That
was the limit of her recreations
during our companionship.
One could not help but sympa-
thize with her-the fight she was
making with her very limited
abilities to earn a living, coupled
with the fact that there was a
long period where she had but
one dress to her name. made one
want to cry for her.
Had Three Uniforms
When Ruth began her work
at the clinic it was with the
understanding that she would
learn shorthand.
She had her tipping experience
but no shorthand. She never
had more than three uniforms
and every day her work required
a clean one.
Naturally. this meant the eve.

The case, which has attracted
thrOngs by the chickering's between
counsel and charges freely tossed
Of perjury and improper motives,
was given to the jurors at $3.50
p. m. yesterday. When no deci.
sion was reached at 1880, last
night Justice Proctor ordered the
jury In for the night.
Siegal Shows Strain
Siegal was in the courtroom

of suspense and the task he has
been through the past week.
Summarizing the evidence,
Justice Proctor advised the IL
men to use also their common
sense" in arriving at a verdict.
Siegal for several years has
been regarded as one Of the
cleverest attorneys in the Capital
and has figured in a number OF
important cases.
Drug Ring Defender
One. of these was the trial OF
Jacob Solomon, alias Jack Rose
alleged chief Of a huge drug ring
Solomon was convicted on
seven counts Of violating the
narcotic laws and was brought
into court to await sentence.
With him was his French com
panion, Mile. Andree du Bois
who was indicted on one count
Of violating the narcotic law
She had not yet been tried, how
ever.
An hour after Solomon had
been brought into court to re
ceive sentence his case was
reached. Solomon was not, how.
ever. He had faded quietly
away.
Instead Of producing him for
sentence, bailiffs had to advise
the court he had escaped and
that the girl also was gone.
Girl Re.arrested
Miss du BoiS was re-arrested
a few minutes later as she at.
tempted to leave the courthouse.
Solornon's $4,000 bond was, de-
clared forfeited and a search was
begun for him.
After the girls arrest, Solomon
gave himself up.
