Baby Bride Loses
Nonsupport Case;
Will Try Again

Augustiano Papio, an 1S-year-old
Italian, in police court Wednesday
won the first skirmish in tangled
and complicated legal battle begun
by his 16-year-old bride, Alta, when
Judge Foster dismissed nonsupport
case brought against him by his
spouse. Now Papio will face fusil-
lade in the district court, as his
wife,s parents have instituted suit
there to annul the marriage.
In police court Papio pointed out
through an interpreter that it was
singular that his wife should bring
about his arrest for ,nonsupport after
she had deserted him and at the same
time consent to an action to annul the
marriage. Papio expressed the view
that his young bride had tried to get
him both ways.
Augustiano and ALTA were married
five months ago.
