The trustees felt that in view of an elaborate exmin- i sion program, calling for the expenditure over a period of . jyears ot many millions of dollars, the university needed not - only n scholar, but a successful administrator whose com parative youth , would insure continued direction of the ; school s affairs over a considerable length of time.

Lu OllAMlK U'IIUl.KbA..C MAitHtrra j Youth is not so much a matter of years as il is u point of .view. Hoover is young in viewpoint and the country is Jortunatc that he is alno young enough in years to permit tight years of service before the hand of time slows down Tiis energies. When he was thirty he was a mining engineer 'ot international reputation. Other big men had recognized Jhis bigness, as have the trustees of the University of Chicago recognized Dr. llutchins, and both saw the opportunity to profit by utilization of youth. For the youth of today in his teens or early twenties the appointment of Dr. llutchins to a high place in the education al world Bhould BO' ve as an inspiration. Youth is no longer 'jhanclicrp if a hn- ability and ambition., Competence is Uhti vidl 'thing! IlteVe are innumerable bfg jobs waiting for Uhe your manjvho can qualify. Springs lU 2la lb.
