Ellsworth American. [volume] (Ellsworth, Me.) 1855-current, 1922-07-19


Monday The first term was indeed
successful from a scholastic stand
point, many of the students attain
ing position upon the honor roll for
high standing.
The director of the summer school,
Prof. Charles E. Bellatty is pleased
with the results shown by the
student body as whole, and is look
ing forward to even better results in
the closing session. This is the first
time that thirteen-weeks' session
has been tried, and the experiment
will be watched with interest by the
faculty. The previous sessions have
been for six weeks. Last year Frof.
Bellatty presented the idea Of the
thirteen-weeks' session to Dean
Lord, who gave his hearty approval
Judging from the excellent results,
future summer schools at Ellsworth
will doubtless be along this plan.
Instructors Oscar Smith ard
Honeywell arrived in Ellsworth last
Sunday and assumed their duties as
instructors in their respective
courses the following day. Both
teachers recently completed six
weeks term at the summer school in
Boston, and will give their subjects
during the concluding term here.
The Ellsworth branch is fortunate in
having Messrs. Honeywell and Smith
numbered on the teaching staff. Mr..
Smith will instruct class in sales
management, while Mr.. Honeywell
will give courses in municipal gov
eminent and American government.
Last Thursday evening, the
student were rendered a reception by
the local Knights of Columbus in
their hall on State street. Father
German, of st. Joseph's church,
gave a hearty address of welcome.
The affair was we'll attended by the
students and townspeople. Vocal
selections, introducing the song hits
of the B. U. show, were sung by J.
C. Mckenzie and John Mckay, as
sisted by Dave Goldberg at the piano
Prizes for dancing were awarded to
the following couples J. G. McKen-
zie and Mrs. James Connolly; Mr..
and Mrs. Lester Roche. Refreshments
were served, and souvenirs were CIV
en- the men.
The Rezoob ball nine scored its
first victory of the season, after
many unsuccessful attempts to break
into the winning column. The vic
tins were the Gumps, team COM
posed of the married men of the
summer school. The score, IA to 0,
indicates that the Rezoob team has
at last become an aggregation which
will bear watching in the coming
games. Dan Coffin, on the mound
for the Rezoobs, was invincible, his
fast shoots and hooks worrying the
Gumps more than a little. The
Gumps used three twirlers, among
them being George "Apostrophe"
Smith, the Beau Brummel with
apologies to Mr.. Lindquist). Smith,
after pitching two innings, decided
to place the responsibility upon the
shoulders of Carl Henderson, who
finished the game for the married
men, and, incidentally, did a fairly
good job of it, too, allowing the
Rezoobs few hits during his stay in
the box
Manager John McKay's Hot
Sketches. after being in seclusion
for more than three weeks. will pre-
sent well-balanced fighting aggre-
cation of ball tossers on the Wyman
park grounds this afternoon, in an
effort to lower the colors of the
Holmes Estate team, captained by
one Frank ONeil. Since their re-
cent victory over the Rezoobs, the
Hot Sketches have been in the same
position as most championship teams,
that of being unable to secure games
with teams within the school because
of their marked ability in the ma
tional pastime. The Holmes Estate
will have such well-known artists as
Jack Murray, O'Neil, McHale, Scan
Ion, A'Hearn, Goldberg, Healy and
Stan Hobbs in the lineup in to-
days battle. The Hot Sketches will
have about all they can handle to do
away with this aggregation and main
tain their title as champions. Soth
are smart ball clubs, and an inter-
esting game is in prospect.
