HELEN E. HANDLE
 INDICTED BY JURY
Socialite's Wife May Get Suspended Prison Sen=
 tenCe, Minimum Fine

Annapolis, Md May 21-(UP)- Helen Eileen Rardle faced a maxi mum of 10 years imprisonment or a minimum of a $500 fine today for manslaughter in the drawing room shooting of 17-year-old high school boy who allegedly supported insinuations of her socialite hus- band that she had been 'midship- mans prostitute"
 A 12-man jury deliberated two hours and returned the verdict last night in ivy-covered Anne Arundel county courthouse. Under Mary land law, manslaughter is punish able by penitentiary terms of from two to 10 years, at the discretion of the court. But Judge Ridgley P. Melvin, who plans to sentence Mrs. Randle next Tuesday, may suspend sentence and impose minimum fine of $500. Mrs. Randle was in dicted for first degree murder, pun ishable by death by hanging in Maryland.
 Mrs. Randle, 31 years old and comedy, dropped her air of uncon- cern when the verdict was read. The hands which she said the high school boy, Allen Wiley, described as "dishpan hands" covered her face. Prior to the verdict she had sobbed that she had only intended to frighten him when she held a 22 rifle against the 17-year-old boys abdomen in the drawing room of her husbands Bay Ridge man. sion.
