Boys' basketball would be none too rough for Hazel. She is number one of Wool- worth's Joy Dispensers. In her spare time she may be found 'hunting for Partridges.

The ailirmative team has hard luck at Lewiston, losing the debate by a vote of two to one. The negative team at home wins unanimously from Biddeford High. March 31-The school makes a good showing in the patriotic parade, boomed up by the great mass meet- ing on the preceding Friday, when the school did honor to the flag. The school is ready at any time to do what it may to aid its country. April 2-We really hope that 1917 will not spoil graduation by allowing it to be held at the Star Theatre. Rumors are circulating that a High School Cadet Corps will be organ- ized. Popular sentiment is against baseball this year, and the money would come in handy for the Cadets. April 17-THE BLUE AND WHITE goes to press. PHILIP HURD, Assistant Editor.
