Narrative:

On takeoff roll; we rejected the takeoff around 90 KTS due to no airspeed indication on the first officer's side. The 80 KTS crosscheck was missed by the first officer due to him still trying to set the power. The second officer was new and had less than two months in the airplane and had never really been taught to bring airspeed into his crosscheck during takeoff roll. During the abort I initiated the reject around 90 KTS; deployed the spoilers and reversers; and tested the brakes. Due to our heavy weight; 165;000 pounds; I elected to roll to almost the end of the runway to save the brakes. We cleared the runway; ran the appropriate checklists; and contacted maintenance control and the company for parking. Taxi in was uneventful.
