Stripper Arrested by Police
After Sheriff S Office Okoys Act
Put on $500 Bond
Pending Hearing in
HyuttsviIIe Court

Strip Teaser Sheila Ryan was
a puzzled peeler today. She's in
disrepute with Prince Georges
County policemen over the same
act which apparently has the ap-
Iproval of the sheriff's Office.
Sheila, "a and curvesome, got
the bad news last night from an
Ioff-duty county policeman, Pvt.
j. H. Vincent, who took the trou-
BILE to catch her act at the
Oriental House in Colmar Manor.
Pvt. Vincent thought Miss
IRyan'S performance was on the
IdiSorderly side. Arrested, she put
up $500 bond for appearance in
IHyttsville Police Court at $50
am. Thursday.
Today Sheila expressed some
bewilderment.
"I cleared my costume and act
with Sheriff Beall's Office and was
told there wouldn't be any trouble
as long as I wore a solid brassiere
and pants" Miss Ryan said.
Deputy Ellis Dooley said Miss
Ryan called the sheriff's Office last
week and asked if her costume,
which the Office approved during
an engagement last May. still
would pass censorship. She was
told the law was unchanged.
Miss Ryan explained she went
to that trouble because in August,
1851, she served a two-day Jail
term on an indecent exposure
charge at another county nitery.
Miss Ryan also said that Mr..
Dooley saw her act last Saturday
and approved. This the deputy
denied. As to further action from
that source, it was out of the
sheriff's hands, he said. County
Police Chief F. Allen Richards
was not aware the arrest had been
made, he said.
Whether the show will go on Is
something the Oriental manage
ment must decide, Miss Ryan said.
She is in the second half Of q two
