Committee formed to select new coach The University formed another committee this weekend, but this one might be one of the most unique college committees in the country. The committee will be an administration-student committee formed to participate in the selection of a new head football coach. It holds its first meeting this morning. ASIJO President Iain More proposed the idea of such a committee to Athletic Department head, Norv Ritchey, as an attempt to get the ASUO involved in the coach-selection process. Ritchey said that the membership of the committee had not been finalized, but that Dean Robert Bowlin, head of the intercollegiate athletic committee, would be chairman. "I think Bowlin has invited a number of people to the meeting. I think, that at the meeting, the composition of the committee wil be desided,” Ritchey said. More admitted the committee, which will be composed of ad ministration figures, members of the football team and students, is an unusual method of selecting a coach. More indicated that he and Ritchey had agreed to aim for next Monday as final date to make a selection. Here are some additional fashion flashes from Fredrick's on Campus and Downtown on the Mall.

Speech student voted best all around Sometimes it’s the little things which mean the most. And one small award will probably be one of Jim DeWitt’s best memories of his college career, because it reflects the esteem of his classmates. Jim, a University senior speech major, was voted the best all around student in one of his speech classes. Criterion for the selection was the person who not only did the best technically, but who the students felt they had learned the most from, and who had contributed most to the class. The subject of the course, taught by Bower Aly, was History and Criticism of American Speeches. So as a memento of his achievement, DeWitt was presented with a copy of a book on speechmaking along the Missouri frontier, “Stump, Bar and Pulpit” by Frances McCurdy. The book, donated by Barre Toelken, professor of English at the University, was presented in a small ceremony on Jan. 14. Another member of the class, Herb Cawthorne made the presentation.
