Narrative:
Clearance received from 10000 ft to 9000 ft. First officer flying. As with the milton arrival, I was changing NAVAID frequency and courses, when the first officer had not slowed to 250 KTS. He leveled at 9000 ft and was still at 320 KTS. I assumed he would slow, and I was distraction by the many navigation changes on that arrival. The first officer was relatively new, but I still should have watched him more closely. ATC said no problem.
