they fight each other for water,
food, r and - light, according to
John Schoenemann, vegetable

along the row. ' '
Proper thinning is also very
Important to other small seeded
vegetables such as beets, celery,
head lettuce, seed onions, par

space celery plants six inches

Dentist May Face
Accuser in Murder
Of Pretty Patient
Minneapolis (U.R) A dramat
ic face-to-face showdown loomed
today between Dr. A. Arnold
Axilrod and. the man who first
linked him to the murder of one
of his pretty young patients. . .
County Atty. George - Scott
said he would call as a witness
Dr. Glen Petersen,. personal phy
sician of the slain Mrs. Elizabeth
Mary Moonen, 21.
Axilrod, a 50-year-old married
dentist, is on trial on charges of
strangling her after she threat
ened to "tell the world" he made
her pregnant. i:.
It was Petersen who tipped po
lice to the fact that Mrs. Moonen
was pregnant last April, al
though her soldier husband had
been in Korea for nearly a year
Dentist Denies Responsibility
. He called police April 23 aft
er hearing over the radio that
Mrs. Moonen's body was found
in the fashionable Lake of Isles
district and told them Axilrod
had denied responsibility for her
pregnancy.
Detectives then went to Axil
rod's office above a nightclub,
where he denied romancing the
slain woman but admitted she
had accused him of causing her
condition.
Today's expected showdown
followed the failure of a defense
bid to collapse the stat'es entire
case with one fell swoop.
Defense attorney Sidney Goff
had filed a motiqn to strike from
the record the testimony of Dr.
Erling Brauti, 29-year-old assist
ant autopsy surgeon. Dr. John I.
Coe, senior ' pathologist at the
autopsy is ill and unable to tes
tify. , .
Goff, who had subjected Br-au-ti
to stinging cross-examination,
said the young surgeon admitted
he studied pathology1 for only
four months and that, in effect,
he didn't know what he was talk
ing about when he testified Mrs.
Moonen was killed by manual
strangulation.
If the defense motion had suc
ceeded, the state's case would
have been hopeless because of a
lack of testimony on the cause
of death. .
But Judge Leslie L. Anderson
denied the motion, saying "I
think Dr. Brauti has indicated
sufficient background to regard
him as an expert witness."
Earlier, Pfc. Mathia Moonen,
25, the slain woman's husband,
took the witness stand for the
first time and glared with hatred
at Axilrod. .
Axilrod stared back with calm
curiosity, the same expression he
has maintained throughout the
trial.
, Moonen's look changed to
tears when he looked at two
pictures of his wife's body and
testified in a low voice, "That
was my wife."
Moonen said his wife visited
him at Fort Riley, Kan., in April,
1954, before he left for Korea.
She moved to Minneapolis that
year.
The next time he saw her, he
said, was at her funeral.
