Mishnayos Sukkah Perek 2 Mishnah 7
סוכה פרק ב׳ משנה ז׳
Bartenura
ב"ש פוסלין – And the Halakha is according to the School of Shammai, whether in a large Sukkah and he is sitting at the opening of the Sukkah and his table is within the house, whether in a small Sukkah which does not support/squeeze together his head, the majority of his body and his table, everything is prohibited, as a decree lest he is drawn after his table.
ב״ש פוסלין. והלכה כב״ש. בין בסוכה גדולה והוא יושב על פתח הסוכה ושולחנו בתוך הבית, בין בסוכה קטנה שאינה מחזקת ראשו ורובו ושולחנו, הכל אסור, גזירה שמא ימשך אחר שולחנו:

After World War II, in 1947, Rav Yonah Sztencl, a disciple of Rav Frommer, expanded the program, advocating for a comprehensive study of Shishah Sidrei Mishnah.
