two cardboard circles little apart and

It is bad form to have the back Of a

If a room Is small push the daven-
port back against the wall between two
windows or before one Is excellent, with
an occasional table before 1t, or end
tables standing where their name
suggests. The reading lamp would
have to be at one end unless one Of the
end tables was high enough for it to
hold a reading lamp.

ROBINS, INDIANS, CUBS SPURT PUTS
 PEP IN BASEBALL
Chicago and Cleveland Pre- sent Class of Their Cir- cults Just Now - Hard Drives Ahead
By DIXON STEWART Limited Press Staff COrrcSIOndent.


 New York, June 1.-(UP)-Wor- ries regarding the plight of the. Chi cago Cubs, Brooklyn Robins and Cleveland Indians to-day appeared to have been slightly premature.
 The three clubs, early season dis appointments, have been hitting 8 fast pace during the past week and now give promise of living up to preseason expectations.
 Going On High
 Chicago's Cubs have made the most impressive record of any Ma tional League club during the past week. with eight victories in nine starts and now are only three games behind the league leading St Louis Cardinals. The Cubs hre in third place-the ideal spot for this stage oe the race-with 21 victories and 15 defeats, and have regained joint ranking with St Louis and New York as pennant favorites.
 Rogers Hornsby has set the pace for his team during the drive of the last week and the Cubs have re- sponded impressively despite injuries to Charley Grimm, Les Bell and Hagen Cuyler and the hitting slump of Hack Wilson, 1880 home run champion. With Is consecutive
 
 the Cubs-always a strong home field club-are expected to improve their standing during the next fort night.
 On the Hop
 Brooklyn, outstanding early sea- son disappointment of the major leagues, snapped out of it's slump during the last week and took three straight from the New York Giants. following this feat with victory and tie against Boston in Sundays doubleheader.
 The winning streak against New York enabled the Robins to climb to fifth place-the highest notch they have reached this season-and the Brooklyn club now is only 6 1-2 games behind the league leading Cardinals.
 Brooklyn no longer expects run away pennant victory, but with the pitching staff beginning to click and the hitters starting to hit their ex- pected gait the Robins are certain to provide plenty of trouble and single protracted winning streak would put them within striking dis tance of the lead.
 On Comeback Trail
 Cleveland after leading the league TOT Inc nrSC lew weeks, dropped en- tiresy out of the race for the Ameri- can League pennant during the first intersectional competition, losing 12 straight games, but the Indians re- cent rally has strengthened their hopes for a first division berth.
 During the last week the Indians have won seven consecutive games from western rivals and advanced to tourth place, nine games behind the Philadelphia Athletics. With Willie kamm rounding out the in- field the Indians now look stronger thau at any time during the last two years and promise to make a strong bid for a first division berth.

SHERIFF GOES
TO ARIZONA FOR
LOCAL FUGITIVE

H. w. Haskell, wanted here to
face a charge of grand theft, has
been arrested in Prescott, Ariz., 1t
was learned today.
Sheriff George L. Campbell left
FL Centro today for Prescott to re-
turn the fugitive TO the county
Jail here. While in Arizona the
sheriff will attend to other invest
igations in Phoenix and Mesa.
A fugitive warrant for Haskell
will be sought in Prescott, SO he may
be held pending eXtradition.
Haskell was arrested on COM
plant of Mrs. Floss Seigel, who told
officers he fraudulently obtained
$40 from her last summer. Haskell,
she said agreed to care for her
two children while she worked,
telling her he was going to buy a
house in Beaumont or Banning. He
needed $540 to make payment on
the house, Haskell told her, and
she gave him a check for that
amount with the understanding he
was to care for the children, ac-
cording to the woman.
Later she discovered he was keep
ing the children on a desert ranch,
and had taken no steps to buy a
house, she said.
