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.

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.
