The Kennebec Journal reporter
made a pilgrimage to Orono recently
to get first hand information on the
affairs of that institution bearing
upon the University of Maine Re-
solve which is expected 10 be report
cd by the committee this week. He
interviewed President Little and sew
clal Maine students on matters af-
fccted by the appropriation of $780,
600. which the University has asked
for for the years 1928 and 1924.
AT thirty -four years Of age, DR..
ClarcnNa c. Little finds himself the
youngest college president in the
United States. Although he has been
active as head of the University of
Maine less than six months. he has.
in this short time demonstrated his
fitness for this important position
and won his way into the hearts of
the students and faculty.
DR.. Little is not afraid Of new
idea and takes lot of the old fash =
toned teaching notions with several
grains of salt. He thinks most Of us
do not learn too much III school and
not a great deal afterWard for the
simple reason that the schools do not
teach us to think things ont for our
selves. In fact, he thinks the present
day schools really teach us to mold
our minds to the beliefs and rules of
oar elders instead Of teaching US to
become ori"inal thinkers.
We Like Him
GLOW do You like d.. Little?" ask =
cd The journal man of two students
he encountered on the campus. "Oh.
we Xix" him. He seems to be back Of
us and Just like one OF Us. He is sin
cerc and we believe in him. DIR. Lit
tie is doing great things for the
University and we feel he is going to
bring the educational and physical
standards of this University up TO a
pla"o where they belong"
''D''. Little is all right" declared a
student from another group. Take
* from mo. DR.. Little has breathed
4 new life into this college. Every
one notices it and remarks on the
fact.
"Thcre is more optimism abroad
and better cheering spirit. We feel
that pr. Little is telling great truth.
both 10 MS and to the people Of this
state. Va believe he will be able to
arouse citizens Of Maine into doing
the right thing by it's State Jniver-
sity. How much we have suffered
from inadequate state appropriations
