Of CoIorfuI Figure
By GEORGE Huber

Bo, Rowland. George Washing
ton University's colorful football
coach, has resigned after four
years with the Colonials.
Rowland is leaving football
after more than Is years in the
game. Is as a head coach, to
accept a job with the Reynolds
Metal Co. of Richmond, Va. His
work. he said, will concern en-
Iploye activities.

Everybody here has been kind
to me and I've made many friends
in Washington"
The job of finding a successor
to Rowland will start tomorrow
with a meeting of the CIV Ath-
letic Committee. harrington said
first consideration will be given to
those on Rowland's staff-Bo
Sherman. Howard Bowers, Dick
johnson and Ray Hanken.
I'm really sorry to see him go. )"
Harrington said. "but Bo told me
his new job is something he
wanted to try with a big company.
Bo and ! are good friends, and
I'm going to miss him. Washing
ton is losing a colorful personality.
I think Bo has added a lot to the
Washington sports scene."
Rowland is something extra as
an after-dinner speaker and was
in great demand here and else
where. A native of Arkadelphia,
Ark, he affects an Arkansas drawl,
pretending to be poor country
boy lost in the big city and a
victim of city slickers.
Presented With Watch.
Bo especially was popular at
the Touchdown Club and an affair
at which he was scheduled to speak
always was well attended. Re-
Gently the club presented him with
a gold watch in recognition of his
activities on behalf of the club.
The watch was one of those ex-
pensive and complicated items
that included a stop watch, and
extra dials to indicate the year,
month and date. This Is a fine
watch and I appreciate it," Bo
said, ''but George Washington is
going to have to hire me another
assistant coach just to work it."
RowlandPs teams at CIV were
plagued by a shortage of good
players and overly strong sched-
ules, and they lost more games
than they won. It was the only
school at which he did not have
a winning record, however.

There were several outstanding

tended fest" at Civic Auditorium
last Saturday night The pro-
gram was of the usual kind:
Cbildren's Pageant, singing by the
Norw. Ladies Chorus, Norw. Male
Chorus, vocal solo, folk dancers
and speeches.
And-as usual-quite a few of
the customers are calling attention
to the fact, that the program
was of the usual kind, forgetting
that the 18th of May offers very
few alternatives in selecting a
program. Everytime 1 happen to
be the recipient of complaints I
usually ask for suggestions as to
what is intended by something
new, and what to leave out of
the standard" program.
You do not want to abolish
the Children's parade? Oh, no!
The singing by the choirs? No.
The folkdancers or the speeches?
No, we like the folkdancers but
the speeches could very well be
cut down considerably.
Here is where I agree. On our
last celebration the speech-makin2
took more than half of the time
consumed by the whole program.
That's too much. In fact l believe
the chairman of the program from
year to year very well could out
line the purpose of our 18th of
May celebration in about min
utes. And let it 60 at that as
far as speeches are concerned UNI
less we happen to have very
prominent visitor.
The fact is that 80 percent of
the public knows all about 18th
of May, and the children and young
people come to our festival for
enc of the two reasons: to take
part in the parade or to dance.
By eliminating the long speeches
we'll be able to have more enter
tainment of the kind everybody
likes. Let's remember that the
continuation of our 18th of May
festivals depends on the younger
generation.

Also, take the case of 22-year-
