MONDAY, MARCH 11, ERDICT OF GUILTY IN TURNERS’ TRIAL; NO INTENT 10 KILL Ranchers of Sioux County to Appeal Assault Case Re- moved to Morton Co. A verdict of guilty of assault with Antent to do bodily harm was brought in by the Morton county jury in the |trial of F. C. Turner and son, Edwin, at Mandan, Saturday. The Turners said that they will appeal. The state was trying for a verdict of intent to kill in this case, which jgtew out of the charge by C. J. Jep- (Person, head farmer at Porcupine |substation on the Standing Rock res- ervation, that the Turners had held him up with guns and that the son had beaten him with a pick handle at ithe behest of the father. The altercation occurred during a roundup which Jepperson was con- ducting last May. He was supposed to have taken in Turner cattle, which the owners were seeking, and when he told them rather sharply, it was testified, that it was none of their business where their stock was, the ‘Turners, it appeared from the testi- mony, resorted to force to get their cattle out of the impounding corral. , Sheriff Schoonover got word of the affair from Indians and intercepted the Turners driving to their ranch. He removed the unconscious Jepperson from their car and allowed them to proceed home, it was charged. The case was on the court calendar at Fort Yates last fall, but an affidav- lit of prejudice was lodged against Judge F. B. Lembke and the trial was shifted to Morton county. VARSITY VAUDEVILLE ACTS ARE SELECTED North Dakota University Flick- ertail Follies Rivals Pro- fessional Revue Grand Forks, N. D., March 11.— With acts selected for the Flickertail Follies vaudeville show at the Univer- sity of North Dakota April 22-23-24, levery effort will now be made to pro- duce @ finished performance rivaling ‘professional revues, according to John E. Howard, director. Waits between acts, always a crit- icism of the Follies in past years, will jbe done away with, Howard an- 'nounces, through special arrang ments with each of the groups par- ticipating. Parts of each act will be presented, the director said, before :the curtain so that changes in scenery |can be completed without delay for the audience. Musical scores for each \part of the program will be prepared so that something will be going on every minute from 8:15 to 10:30 p. m. Every act in the show will be dif- ferent, it is announced by the direc- , tor. The entertainment will range from the elaborate and artistic danc- Hing act presented by Delta Gamma sorority to the melodramatic “Trav- jesty of Hamlet,” produced by Sigma Chi fraternity. A decided variety in girl acts is promised by the show director, and yhe declares that in a burlesque skit ;presented by Macnie Hall he has the funniest bit of entertainment ever jshown in a Follies show. Alpha Phi ‘and Pi Beta Phi sororities each have Jacts with singing, dancing, and stunts and with collegiate settings. They are quite different, however, accord- jing to Howard. Sigma Kappa’s “Dream” presentation with a num- ber of solo dancers and a chorus will jconclude the co-ed part in the pro- ‘gram. The only orchestra act this year in the Follies will be presented by Sigma )Alpha Epsilon entitled “A Rhythmic jInferno.” Phi Delta Theta presents {ts quartet in a skit entitled “The (Mechanical Toy Shop,” and there is Iso tap and novelty dancing, it is de- clared. A break in the program is provided, said Howard, when Sigma Nu fra- ternity presents a vocal trio, and a chorus in a Parisian cafe setting. An Apathe dance is a feature hit of this part of the program. i \_“The Price,” a sketch in which sev- ,eral clever female impersonations are successfully carried out, is the offer- ing of Tau Delta Phi. The act deals with the triangle of life. Howard announced also that ar- rangements have now been completed to secure a professional orchestra to play for the various group acts.

A. U., Paavo Nurmi is back in the running again in time to add to the glamour of his presence to the closing fea- tures of the indoor track. season. Finally convincing A. A. U. officials that it was illness that kept him from appearing in the national champion- ships, the famous Finn was reinstated Saturday as suddenly as he tad been suspended. He ran a few hours later in a novel race veam at the seventh regiment games, winning the event with Ole Anderson, a fellow Finn. Running alternate laps he covered the mile in close to four minutes flat. Nurmi looked so good, in fact, that his appearance in the K. of C. games at Madison Square Garden next Sat- urday night, one of the high spots of the winter campaign, was freely pre- dicted.
