Hagerstown High continued its
victorious drive toward the Cum

Championship with a decisive 81 to

of Winchester. Va.
With three wins and no losses in
the league race, the Maroon and
Gray move over to Cumberland on
Saturday for their final game of
the league season, with the also UNI
beaten Fort Hill High School team.
A win for Coach Semler's boys will
give them the league crown and we
are pulling for them to do just that,
but even if they lose, they will still
be in the race.
While Saturdays game winds up
the season for the Maroon and Gray,
Fort Hill has a league game to play
with Allegany High on Thanksgiv-
ing Day and, if Allegany should
happen to win that tussie, it would
throw the race back into three
way tie. But on past performances
that is not likely to happen, so the
safest thing to do is to take Fort
Hill into camp on Saturday and put
the championship in The bag. You
can do it Hagerstown-let's go.

Allied Unity and Achievement in Var Effort
Diplomatic Corps Younger Set
Among the Busy Workers Here
By MarParef Hart,
Society Editor.

What are daughters of MEM
bers Of the diplomatic corps, who
before the war might have been
facetiously dubbed social butter
flies, doing these days?
The answer-they are doing
their share like all members of
society and are engrossed in war
work. ,r-'
\ Take for instance Senorita
Cristina Michels, the daughter
of the Chilean Ambassador and
Sonora de Michels. She is a
faithful and successful worker
for the Red Gross blood bank.
She had made many inspiring
speeches at schools throughout
the Washington area. Through
her effort the bank has had many
donors. 1t is no surprise that
she has encouraged so much help
for the bank. Blessed with a
smiling personality, she easily
captivates her audiences and yet
impresses all with the seriousness
In her appeal.
But, helping the blood bank
Is not all this energetic and pretty
girl does. She now is taking a
nurses aide course; and, when
she is not devoting her time to
the Red Cross, she is helping out
at the Embassy. She's one of
the favorites of the newspaper
women and there is little that
goes on at the Embassy that
this capable young Chilean is
not we'll informed about.
She always is eager to help any
of her friends with their favorite
activities. Recently she filled
