CH|LDREN'S IDEAS
Of FAME UNUSUAL
Tests of 5000 Show City's
Chief of Police Ties Alex
ander the Great.

DN Un6 Associated fTeSS.
BERKELEY, Calf, March 60
School children apparently have no
conventional ideas for judging great
ness. Prof. L. A. Williams of the
School of Education, University of
California, announced he had reached
this conclusion by a test of more than
5000 school children.
Amusing details of the test were
made public by Prof. Williams. The
pupils gave the following an equal
number of votes for greatness: Sher-
lock Holmes, Andrew Jackson, Charles
Chaplin, Mohammed, Buffalo Bill
Benito Mussolini, Roald Amundsen
and President Coolidge.
Along with them ran Moses, Nicolai
Lenin, Louisa May Alcott, Corot, Cali
leo and few others.
Mr. Williams asked the children to
give their reasons for believing in the
greatness of their heroes. Some of
the answers:
Observation-Disclosures in oil stations.
Woodrow Wilson--Signed the con.
tract for the World War.
Lincoln-Because he was simple.
Coolidge-Sees that the people do
right by prohibition.
Jefferson-Leader of free love.
Galileo-Made his pupils invent the
thermometer.
August Vollmer, Chief of Police
Berkeley and Alexander the Great
received the same number Of votes
as the greatest of the great.
