Little, who was ousted as presi- dent of the University of Michigan because of his attempted enumerated some of his ideas in an interview with the United Press. He finds fault with the present methods of co-education, the exis ence of college fraternities, the use of liquor on the campuses and with college athletics, which he said needed a complete revolution. Dr. Little said college drinking has increased to an amazing degrec | under prohibition. *The extent to which college girls| use liquor,” he said, ** is such that it completely overwhelms one.
