he said, newspapers in this country were

ARREST
GIRL IN
ASSAULT

Mrs. George Pidd, a dancer at
the National dance hall, and wife
of Private George Pidd of Camp
Lewis, was brought to Tacoma
from Portland by City Detective
Braund and Deputy Sheriff Sears
early Christmas morning, charged
with completely in the brutal as
sault last Thursday night upon
Lawrence Berquist, an army post
bus driver.
Berquist is still lowering be-
tween life and death.
Pidd was arrested Sunday
charged with having fractured
Berquist's skull with blows from
u piece of iron pipe, news of his
capture being censored by the
military police.
Mrs. Pidd was arrested at the
Portland postoffice, when she
went to get a letter from her hus-
band. She is Portland girl and
married Pidd last October.
Pidd and his wife were riding
in Berquist's car Thursday night
when Pidd remarked to his wife
that he was tempted to kill and
rob to get money. His wife
tainted him with Being chicken
hearted"
P.dd took an iron bar from the
bottom OF the ear, struck Berquist
several times. and then stopped
the car as the driver slumped un-
conscious upon the cushions. Pidd
stole $40 from Berquist, and then
he and his wife left the driver for
dead.
Pidd has confessed the entire
affair. He objected to his wife
working in dance hall to earn
living, and was tempted to rob-
berry as means of furnishing Mrs.
Pidd with sufficient funds to live
on, he said.
If Berquist dies, Pidd's punish
ment will be death. IL the chauf-
