All Around the Tovn
Happiest kid in town this weekend is Mikt Holman,
son of Mr. and Mrs. Nick Holman, who live in Gwelo,
Rhodesia. That's about 12,000 miles beyond the end
of KU's longest school bus route.
The reason Mike's so enthused is because they
held a big pep assembly at the high school Friday
and presented him with an athletic awards jacket.
The "K" Club thought he'd more than earned it by
banging heads on the Jayvee football team and giv
ing it all he had. A few months ago he didn't know
a football from a load of hay. In Rhodesia, Africa,
soccer and cricket are big. Football no.
"I'm turning out for basketball now," Mike an
nounced in his rich and cultured British accent. He'll
have a good go at "bawsketball," with Coach Bill Mans
field and the Sophomore Wildcats, that's for certain.

Mike's making the very best of everything here be
cause that's the whole idea of his presence in Klam
ath Falls, U.S.A. He's the community's fourth Ameri
can Field Service exchange student. The prime pur
pose of the program is to bring young people from
foreign countries here for a period of time to learn
how we live, think, go to school and yell at the um
pires. When they go home we hope they will say some
thing good about us. Our youngsters do the same thing.
Through application and selection they are picked
and carefully Incidentally to represent America
abroad. It's a great experience all 'round.
'
j If you'U kindly check your maps you will find
that Rhodesia is in the interior part of southern
Africa. Gwelo is a town of about 10,000, according to
Mike. If the sun shines bright there 365 days a year
It hasn't affected the complexion of the youthful am
bassador to Oregon. He's blond and the picture of a
healthy Scandinavian just in off a downhill schuss.
Master Holman lives with the Lyl Kellstroms
down on Conger by the river. They became interested
in the AFS program as a result of being good friends
, of the Theodore Llndlayt, who made a home for tho
only other AFS male exchange student, a lad from
Italy. Two girls were here prior to Mike's arrival
last August.
Wo can report, without reservation, there is a
warm feeling between the Kellstroms and Mike.
"The Kellstroms are big" chuckles Mike. This
is true. Lyle, head of the house, is a good 6', 6", one
time basketball center for the Washington State Cou
gars. The other Kellstroms run to tall. Betty, who is
Mike's "mom" here, can't say enough good things
about the boy. The feeling is mutual.
Lon It Mlke'i buddy because they're nearly the
same age. But Mike has a great time with the other
Kellstrom boys, Scott and Todd. The kids have all kinds
of athletic gear and stuff around the house and when
you walk through their area you're somewhat re
minded of the old days at the Y.M.C.A.
Speaking of his associates at high school, Mike
says this:
"They're wonderful. They're so tremendously
friendly. 1 realize my being an exchange student makes
a difference but they're great!"
"Do they kid you about your broad British accent?"
we asked. "Yes!" he laughed. So apparently he doesn't
mind.
His dad teaches in one of Gwelo's four hle,h
schools. In fact he's the principal at Thornhill. But
here's one for the books: One of Thornhill's chief rivals
1 in Gwelo Is a school named Gulnae Fowl.
What a project for the cheer leaders!
We didn't get into the geography of Rhode
Ma a great deal but we gather it is a farming country
.nd not exactly run rampant with lions, tigers and
'hose big jumbos.
Mike really likes his teachers, a list that includes
rrl Rickabaugh, Luit Corrlgan, Ruby Alloway, Tom
Vabtree and Darrell Boone. He was surprised when lie
discovered the kids here greeted their instructors with
a casual "hi!" as they arrived at class. "We always
sav, 'Good morning, Sir!' " He seemed to think our way
14 best. But then sometimes you wonder.
Young Holman would like to go to Camhridce or
Oxford and take literature. "You have to be clever to
pet In, you know." This would be in '65. In the mean
time ho'll go back home next summer after a three
week bus tour of the U.S.A. with other AFS students.
Going back to the letterman's jacket presented
him bv club president Steve Cimobell in front of a cheer
in? full house In the KU auditorium, Mike said. "I'm
really grateful. Please tell them how much I appre
ciated it. It was a tremendous gesture."
: Right-o and cheerio! Great kid.
