COULDN'T SPEAK ENGLISH;
Wandered ABOUT STREETS
Young Swedish Girl Lost After Being
In the City Week and Found
by Policeman

But one week in the United States
and unable to speak the English lam
guage, Miss Augusta Fredrickson, from
Sweden, wandered about the streets of
Los Angeles from o'clock Friday
evening until o'clock yesterday morn
ing. At that time Patrolman w. E.
Murphy met her walking up Main street
muttering to herself.
The police officer stopped her and in
quired where she was going, but she
could give no intelligible answer and
continued to mutter in monosyllables 10
herself. She was taken to the police
station and turned over to the care of
the matron, who put her to bed. From
which she had taken in her wanderings
she fell asleep at once.
At o'clock yesterday morning G.. H.
Peterson, S17 East Sixth street, called
at the police station and inquired If a
young Swedish girl about II years old
had been heard of during the night.
Miss Frederickson was awakened and
called Into the corridor. All the pent-
up emotion and feeling which she could
not express to the policeman in the
night burst forth as she saw her friend
who could speak her native tongue.
Peterson told the police that Miss
Fredrickson came from Sweden but a
week ago to visit in Southern Califor-
mia. Friday evening he and his wife,
accompanied by the young woman, at
tended services in the Swedish church.
After the meeting the young woman
became separated from her friends, and
being unfamiliar with the city or the
streets until found by Patrolman
Murphy.

the Japs held" their mouths-for the
most part open. Yell after yell Of
oriental Joy and victory was sent out
by the contestants and lent excitement
TO the game. The spectators were
treated to an educational exhibition
which they will probably carry with
them for the remainder Of their lives.
Mr. Barnhart Of the university en-
livened the program by twisting his
limbs around his ears and making
faces at the audience while doing the
split" standing on his head.
The little brown boys then trotted
out and the fun began. Nearly a
score Of police officers, who have been
having trouble with Japs lately, were
present and gave careful attention to
the performance in the hope of getting
on to some Of the tricks.
For nearly an hour little brown
bodies went through the air, describ-
ing arcs, paralellograms and great falls,
and the crowd. thoroughly aroused to
the sport, yelled for more. AS final

neighborhood of the auditorium were
