Dentist Faces Murder Charge Minneapolis U.R) Open ing arguments and testimony were expected to begin today in the trail of a society dentist ac cused of seducing and strangling a pretty patient. Dr. A. Arnold Axilrod, 50, is charged with killing Mrs. Eliza beth Mary Moonen, 21-year-old wife of a soldier serving in Kor ea, when she threatened to "tell the world" that the dentist had made her pregnant. Axilrod is accused of feeding Mrs. Moonen pills to make her unconscious when she came' to him as a patient. The married dentist admits that he took the attractive sol dier's wife for a ride in his car last August because she wanted to talk to him. He became enranged when she accused him of being her unborn baby's father and threat ened to "tell the world," Axil rod has said.

The woman's shapely body was found the next morning, Official Statement on Princess Margaret's Love Life May Come Next Week juonaon vary family may issue a statement next week taking note for the first time of the persistent, pesky rumors that Princess Margaret wants to marry Capt. Peter Townsend. What will be in the statement no one can guess. . It is not even definite that a statement will be issued. ' Must Intervene But well-informed court ob servers believe the gossip and newspaper speculation about the 25-year-old princess and the di vorced commoner has reached the point where official word from the throne must intervene. These sources say the state ment most likely would be is sued next week after the queen and her family return to London from Scotland. For the royal family to issue a statement on the long-reported romance would be almost un precented. It has been a modern tradition that the royal family ignore any criticism or gossip swirling around the throne. Queen Mother Dismayed But the consistency of the Margaret-Townsend talk has es pecially dismayed Queen Moth er Elizabeth, according to court observers. They say this down-to-earth woman of great common sense has urged the queen to end the unsettled state of affairs by making some kind of official announcement. The queen mother is known to feel that the gossip is casting a cloud over Margaret's person al prestige and reflecting gener ally on the national regard for the monarchy. No Speculation While there is much agree ment that a royal statement is in the offing, no one will hazard a guess as to whether the state ment will say the princess is go ing to marry Townsend or whe ther it will say she isn't. - Princess Margaret herself has a busy public schedule ahead of her when she returns from Scot land, a solid week of visits to hospitals, receptions, and the like., Townsend plans to ride In a horse show at Munich, Germany, on Sunday and then will go to England to spend a mid-Octob er leave.
