How do I split multiple events into seperate columns, and form one single row?

Hi,

I'm wanting to split multiple event types into separate columns, and form one single row for a Linux system. Currently, my output looks similar to:
_time acct Type Result
12:49 smith User_Start Success
13:05 smith User_End Success

I would like to have it look more like this (if possible):
_time acct Type _time Type Result
12:49 smith User_Start 13:05 User_End Success
