. -. . SYLLABUS 1923 j ,. v fi J 'f1' Wmtflmi Summer School Tennis The B. U. summer school at Ellsworth certainly went over big, with everyone there. Fun? Ask Pep CDemosthenesD, or the songf ?D bird, or the man who spoke of jack-rabbit jurisdictions! The tennis tournament was one of the big events of the summer. The matches were played on the estate of judge Peters, of Ellsworth, who proved himself a friend to the school on more than one occasion. There was a surprising bit of clever racquet work shown, which added to the keenness of the contest, and gave the winners a lot of hard work. The tournament finished as follows: Plfinner -- rl!!-IOMAS LoN ERGAN Runner-up - EDWARD Loan DOUBLES JONES AND Joi-INsoN CMaltra Malasj ' vs. SULLIVAN AND ADAMS CCorrejasD 6-3, 4-6, 6-2 OTNEII.

SUMMER SCHOOL f ... . . .1 Christmas Reunion, 1921 just before the Christmas vacation a reunion of the Ellsworthites was held at the B.U. Union-about 100 men got together and what gayety there was! Chairman Jack Glynn opened the celebration with a poem which he stated had been deciphered by Mzttty Boyle of the lVlalatras-it was carved in hieroglyphics on a precipice near the Yang-tsi-Chiang River. The title of the poem was Rum, Chairman Glynn then introduced Prof. Charles E. Bellatty, who read several letters from Ellsworth citizens wishing the Federal Board a Merry Christmas and expressing their desire to have them all return to Ellsworth next summer. Royal Hayes gave a humorous sketch which was greatly enjoyed. Unfortunately, however, he ran over his time limit, whereupon Educator Bellatty blew his whistle and Joe McCorry and Steve Toland, official bouncers, carried the protesting Hayes from the platform. Art Tileston, the Dennerls'l star soloist, then favored the members with two excellent selections. He was followed by Jacob Gittelman, who failed to gauge his time correctly and a blast from the whistle caused him to make a forced exit assisted by McCorry and Toland. A spelling contest between two teams captained by Barney Kelley and Joe French continued for a half hour. Kelley's team, which numbered Dean Lord and Prof. Babb among its members, finally carried off the honors. Joe French, however, by the use of strategy, kept his team in the running until the very end, a coach hidden behind the CU pulled his side out of many a tight hole. ' Dean Lord spoke on the plans for next summerls school at Ellsworth and said that if present plans went through, a three months, session would be held instead of two months as formerly. He hopes to be able to spend a month at Ellsworth. The feature of the programme was a dialogue between Francis Cook and Prof. Hugh W. Babb of the Law Department. Cook carried his part through to perfection in Italian dialect. Then followed the reading of the parlor edition of the Devil's Den Herald. The former service men then answered mess call in true doughboy style and an excellent supper was served. Gifts from the Christmas treeended the programme, Prof. Babb presiding as Santa Claus, with Gum Boyle as his first assistant. After the presents were distributed all adjourned to the Colonial Theatre, where Fred Stone's Tip Top was seen. The tickets were procured by a very dear friend of Fred's, Arthur C. Tileston. 285
