From Mrs. r. N. L.. Alexandria. ]
Mrs. w. L. c., Arlington. You
asked about having q pony or

|gine that II you contact the Alex
andria YWCA, pupils Of Mrs.
Marion Lovejoy's textile painting
class might be glad to do this work
for you. They meet on Wednes-
day mornings. SO time your call
accordingly. Glasses win last only

you do not wish to have them

such motifs from the needlework
Catalogues In pattern departments.
II have seen these In varying sizes.
I am most anxious to get copies
|of the following books: "The Tails
Book" by Carey and "The City
Boy" by Herman Wouk. Both of
them are out Of print.
Let's have a discussion on low
cost decorating hints. Here are a
few suggestions to start the ball
rolling. Since draperies represent
a major investment, one way to
introduce pattern around windows
is by the use Of q papered window
wall with glass curtains the only
window covering. Plastic dra-
peries come in most attractive pat
terms the better ones look like
glazed chintz and are so easy to
keep clean. Unbleached muslin
used lavishly and possibly dyed
and trimmed is most effective.
Floor coverings are also O major
investment. A sensible solution
suggested before is to tape, tie
baste or gripper together small
shag rugs. These are easily taken
apart for home laundering, there
by effecting another major saw
ling.
I would also like to know of
ways to spice up vegetables. You
know, add fresh mint to the peas

The desperate submitted to ar
rest without a struggle Sunday
when Tijuana Police Chief Fran
cisco Kraus Morales and posse
confronted him in a cafe at Santa
Rosalia. a small mining town 600
miles below the border on the
Lower California peninsula.
With Cook were two pros
pectors, James Burke, 33. and
Forrest Damron, 80. both of El

had stopped their maroon sedan

Cook kept the gun in his lap with

Chief Morales was led to Santa
Rosalia by reports from two min

en- route to Santa Rosalia in a
maroon sedan.
After Cook was reported seen in
Winthrop, Ark, with the Mossers
on New Years Day, the desperate
dropped from sight until January
6, when Sheriff's Deputy Homer
Waldrip ran into him at Blythe,
Calf.
Mr.. Waldrip said Cook forced

him to the desert. robbed him and
left him, after boasting that ne
had killed seven persons.
Cook apparently drove to Yuma,
Ariz., where he encountered Mr..

propped the body in Mr.. Waldrip's
car and fled in Mr.. Dewey's auto.
This car was found 40 miles below
the border in Lower California.
Beside it were tire treads left by
the prospector's machine.
This was the last tangible clue
as to Cooks whereabouts until the
mining men reported seeing three
men in the maroon sedan. While
FBI agents and other law enforce
ment officers traced down hum
dreds of false reports that Cook
had been seen in the Midwest.
