day afternoon. when the bill to open
a certain section of Mt. Desert Island
t. hunting was called for hearing.
Rep. Roberts of Bar Harbor explain
ell the bill and the reasons for its
Introduction to the committee.
He said that there was an area Of
about 500 acres extending from Somes
Sound to Hull's Cove. where hunting
was forbidden. Some years ago this
area was stocked with Hungarian
partridge. The close time was put
on to help in propigating these birds.
1t had not proven a success. The
now felt that 1t would be wise to
general restrictions of the game
laws. Especially was this desira BILE.
explained Representative Roberts.
because Of the fact that 1900 acres
Of the national park are closed to all
hunting. Closing both tracts did not
give much chance to those residents
who could not afford to take a trip to
the big woods. much chance to go
hunting.
! Rep. Dwinal OF Camden appeared
before the committee to urge the i'm
portance of granting an appropria-
ton of $500 for repairs and improves
ments at the Lake Megunticook
hatchery. Camden. He told just
what was planned to do there and
+ said that this was one Of the show
places of the region and that outside
Of the Lake Auburn hatchery. prob
ably more persons visited it than any
other hatchery in Maine.

ing Lovewelrs pond to fishing. No

Percy r. Horton of Portland said
he could sec no need of prohibiting
private societies from caring for
children IL they would do 1t for
nothing, and said 1t was not re-

want the desirable children.
Mr.. Cornieh said 1t would be all
right to handle that in a new draft.
He was not opposed. He believed
that the Board could handle the
cases more cheaply than private in

committed. He submitted figures.
but these were not accepted unquali-
fiedly by the committee.
All matters were considered In

is the title of the annual Waterville
High school play which will be pre-
sented In the City Opera House this
evening. A large cast of students has
been hard at work for some time
} and the play this evening is sure to
match up to the high standards that
have been set by the plays that the

The play is comedy into which
are packed laughs galore. Edmund
Sweeney is to play the leading role
as Tom Denker. Alden Sprague is
to take the part Of Tom Wills, a
magazine writer who has innumer-
able difficulties with his pal, Tom.
Irene Woodford was selected for the
part OF Mrs. Reese, an atiquated lady
who IS the landlady Of the boys. A
very comical role is that of Jerry
Smith. just back from "Over There
and 1t is ably handled by Deane
Quinton.
Miss Thelma DeLisle, prominent
for the past few years in all anna
teur theatricals. Is to act the part of
LIZ. Mrs. Feese's stepdaughter. Her
presence in the cast will in itself
draw many to the performance.
Bling" Dickson. hard boiled and
wise. in love with Liz, will be play
ed by John Richardson. Bradford
Hutchins plays the part Of William
Cenker, a finicky old specimen, I'M
Gle OF Tom. Other parts in the play
are Constance Vigue as Alice King,
Laura Simpson as Alice Kings ward
and Nellie McPhee as Angela Scott.
Bob's finance.
Between the acts there will be the
usual specialties which have always
added so much to the High school
plays. Miss DeLisle will sing a num-
Der of solos. Nathan Rosenthal, q
violinist OF considerable ebility. will
give several selections. A brass
quartet made up of Bernard Shaw.
Harold Taylor. Justin Blu ell and
Warred Payson will perform be.
tween two of the acts and there adj
vent is awaited with no little anti
cipation.
Any financial profit that may re-
suit from the play. after all the ex-
penses have been paid will be turn
ed over to the athletic association
OF the school to be used as it sees
tit. The sale of tickets has not been
ss good as 1t has Keen in years past
but It Is expected that 1t will swell
today and that full house : Ill
greet the players when the curtains
rise at $50 o'clock. There still re-
main a number of good seats. both
on the floor and in the balcony, and
these may be acquired by calling
at the High school building in per-
son or by telephoning.
