open for promising football talent |
among the students of the summer
school. Already 100 letters have
been sent out to prospective candi-
dates instructing them as to the form |
of light training that each man
should do in order to keep himself in
condition. Lack of proper condi-
tioning lost the Harvard and Boston
College games last year. Tonry is
mindful of this fact, and is taking
the necessary steps to have the men
in shape when the season opens.
The B. u captain expects to do a
great deal of road work, and has al
ready requested Coach Whalen to
send on a football in order that he
may get accustomed to the feel of
the pigskin.
Lester Roche left Ellsworth for
Washington last Tuesday to enter
the Federal Income Tax school.
Roche is the third B. U. student to
enter this school from the Ellis
worth branch Jack Glynn of Mala-
ira Mala fame and James McIver
are the other two students. Mrs.
Roche and her two children will re-
main in Ellsworth for the remainder
of the summer session.

The weekly Plunge" made
great splash when it went into circu-
lation for the first time last Satur.
day The copies went like pro-
verbal "hot cakes" indicating that
the journal is certain to be fixture
among the students of the summer
school. When it is considered that
the Plunge" was edited in less than
a week, and hurried through the
press at the Office of the Ellsworth
American in order that the students
might receive the paper on Saturday,
the feat is more remarkable. Prof.
Bellatty is quite pleased with the
plunge" and has sent twenty copies
to Prof. Center of the news writing

the students are making in this
course in the Ellsworth branch.
