AUCUSTANA WILL
have GOOD TEAM
Most of Last Years Baseball
Players Still in School and
Ready to Play. s

With the basketball season over at
Augustana college, attention begins to.
center around the baseball prospects.
About all the men who made UP the
good team of last year are back this
year, and will report for practice as
soon as the Erickson field is in shape.
In addition to the last years team
much new material has entered coll
lege during the year, and some of this
may even replace the old men. Eric
Anderson, who is the captain this,
year, will be at his old place behind
the bat. His record at that position
during the last two years put him as
possibly the best catcher that Augie
has had for many years. 81
AS first baseman, Knut Erickson
will still eat everything alive that
comes his way as he has done for two
years. Flavids Stem will hold his ac-
customed place at second base for the
last time before graduation. His REQ
ord in both baseball and basketball
has been one which anyone might
envy. Walter Peterson is ready for a
merited return to his position on third
His two and three baggers will still
be in order. The competition for
shortstop will no doubt be keen. Rob-
ert Poison, Egnar Larson and Fred
Magnuson will be out for the place
Poison is a last years man and may
retain that position.
There is abundance of men for the
outfield. The old men back this year
are Arthur Mollander and Reuben.
Hultgren, while the new men who will
compete are Edgar Johnson, Fred
Magnuson and one or two others.
Nate Hultgren, who served SO well
on the slab last year, will again be
on deck, One game of last year was
a no-hit affair
With this lineup of men the manag-
er is busy casting around for strong
teams to play.

Como. Italy, March 31.-Porter
Charlton, the young American who
killed his wife. Mary Scott Charlton,
when they were spending their honey
moon here in June 1910, has acquired
a sufficient knowledge of Italian to
avail himself of the privilege under
the Italian law to be the first and last
to address the jurors before whom he
is to be tried on the charge of murder.
Sympathy for the accused youth has
been demonstrated frequently during
his detention in the San Donnedo jail,
since extradition from the United
States last August. While Charlton
has been studying the language OF
the country his lawyers have been
working up public opinion in his favor.
The effect is apparent. Visitors to the
Jail are many and privileges have
been granted to the prisoner by the
director and keepers of the jail. His
meals are served from the outside.
Good food and daily exercise in the
court yard of the Palace of Justice
have kept him in fine health.
1t may be midsummer before the
case is tried, delays being due to ex-
tended investigations undertaken by
both sides.
Charlton's lawers have been getting
in touch with numerous witnesses in
America. Twenty of them have been
and it is expected that
several may appear personally before
the court of assizes at Como to con-
tribute their testimony as to the psy.
condition of the accused.
While the case is new in the sense
that it is the first time an American
citizen has been extradited and tried
in Italy, It does not differ greatly
from the so-called crimes of passion
SO frequent here
Studying the terrible drama, we
have become convinced and will DEM
onstrate" say Charlton's lawyers in a
sketch of the theories they will pur-
sue, that an obscure and inevitable
presides over these awful
crimes, which go from love to death,
from the idyl to tragedy, by which
human life is suddenly cut short by
The hand OF a creature who loved. and
who still passionately loves. and who
after the crime remains terrified,
and stunned by what he has
lone. incapable of believing that the
blood was shed by him.
