MOUSE HIGH
VS. CONY HIGH
TONIGHT IN CITY
A bis event of the season in bas
ketball bids fair to exceed anything
.witnessed on the polished surface at
the Assembly hall on Cony High
school so far this year. Morse High
of Bath will come to Augusta tonight
augmented by a large delegation oi
supporters who have already askec
for reservations on the floor of the
hall. There are to be two games to
night, one between the Cony Girls
and the Mors* . Girls, and the othei
between the boys’ aggregations. This
game will, in many ways, decide the
possibility of the State champion
ship, as wfll as the probability ol
Cony s competing in the tournament
at Tufts, the last of the present
month. v
The first game will be between the
girls at 7:45 sharp. Cony’s lineup will
be composed of: Misses Wyman avid
Purinton, guards; Sturtevant and
Hopkins, forwards, and- Giddings at
center. Miss Florence ?fichols of the
Sargent school, will act as referee.
Both squads are nearly equal, each
one having lost one game each so far
this year. )
The main game is expected to be
hotly contested. Cony will have her
usual lineup, with the possibility of
the loss of Brennan, who has been
placed under partia quarantine be
cause of a case of scarlet fever in the
family. Whitney Thomas, a very re
liable man, will take his place. Rules
governing the 1921 games will be
strictly adhered to, under the person
al supervision of Coach William E.
O’Connell of Portland, who will re
feree the match. It is anticipated
that a big crowd will be on hand to
witness this attraction which should
be of a stellar nature.

Mary Stewart to
Speak at State House
on “Women and Gov’t.”
"Woman's Place in Government" is
to be explained and discussed by Miss
Mary Stewart of New York who is
to speak Wednesday evening, March
9 in the Senate chamber at the State
House. The meeting is to be held
under the auspices of the Augusta
Republican club and every woman
and every man in the city is cordially
invited to attend and hear what this
charming yo.jjn woman of much talent
and wide experience has to say. She
will talk about what women should
do and can do for and through their
government, and how they may best
go about it
Her talk will not be confined to
woman’s side of politics, hpwever, for
she believes men have a definite in
terest and duty toward their newly
enfranchised sisters in meeting them
even more than half way and giving
them the benefit of the long years of
men’s experience in making and man
aging government.
Miss Stewart has made a host of
friends in Maine who know her as
am ost convirtUng speakerof unusual
ability and-delightful personality. At
her appearance as the only woman
speaker at 'the Republican State con
vention in Bangor a year ago, she
completely won every man and
woman who heard her, and in the
State and National campaign during
the summer she was kept on the go
literally day and night to fill the de
mands that were made upon her for
addresses throughout the State.
The Augusta Republican club had
arranged to have Miss Stewart speak
in this city last month, but owing to
a sudden change in the dates of the
Augusta Entertainment course, yield
ed its date and postponed the meet
ing. All who had planned to hear her
then are cordially invited to hear her
next AVednesday evening at 7.30 in
tho Senate chamber.
