Staff Tails - Wins Race fem Seated: Pat Sprodlin, managing editor, Joyce Smith, assistant copy editor. Standing: Pat Serrault, copy editor, Doug Miller, Business manager, John Pinkall, assistant editor, Kay Scholten, lnot in picture, assistant editor. The staff for the i957-58 Trail, after hours and hours of planning and struggling with various aspects of the book, finally succeeded in getting all copy and pictures to the publisher. The staff wasn't chosen until late, but each department was delegated to different groups who selected the type of work each wanted to do during the entire first semester and part of the second. First on the program was the solici- tation of advertising which is a vital necessity to publishing the book. Following this three weeks of down town toil , the group settled down to assigning pictures, making layouts, making up ods, and writing copy. Each person had o chance to choose the type of work he wished to do and the rush for completion began. Again the Trail was under the direction of Mr. Aubrey Bilger who counseled with the staff and assisted in every phase of the book. So the staff offers the product of their labors as an addition to the historical library for Salina High. Seated: Kay Smith, copy, Winona Jenne, business. Standing: Ronald Swenson, photograuherg Linda Bennett, pictures, Duane Johnson, advertising, Penny Belleville, pictures, David Jones, copy, and Ju y allis, art and layout.

Sczlirm eaclaes enturjf Mark Wagons to Wings' was an accurate selection for the' slogan for the Centennial in Salina. Certainly the first settlers found the going easier by the use of wagons for their transportation. ln these days Salina, in particular, finds its guests and future home makers arriving almost daily through the use of wings. ln place of the characteristic buffalo wallows scattered about the countryside, now there are runways for the modern plane. Salina, with its natural location for the air- borne craft, is no exception for the landing strips for modern aircraft. Salina first came into notice as a part of the territory, which later became the great state of Kansas, when the area was visited by the Spaniard, Coronado, in the search for the seven cities of gold. Zebulon Pike was the first American to be sent to Kansas officially early in the 19th century and was also the first person to fly the United States flag over the territory now known as Kansas. Pike was officially sent to the Kansas territory in 1806. During the years from 1806 to 1856 Kansas was a territory in- habited mostly by lndians and buffalo and other wild game. ln l856 Preston B. Plumb decided the confluence of the Salina and Smoky Hill rivers was the ideal spot to found a settle- ment. With this idea in mind, a company was organized in Xenia, Ohio, but the idea didn't come to pass because some of the instigators of the settlement felt that the proposed Salina site was too far removed from other centers of population. ln the spring of 1857 publisher Horace Greeley sent Colonel William Phillips to Kansas on a special assignment for the New York Tribune. Phillips was impressed with the location as a potential townsite. But because of the warlike attitude of the ln- dians, a settlement was not attempted that year. The name Salina is an lndian name for the place where two rivers meet. At first the name was referred to as Saleena. ln the spring of 'l858 Phillips returned with three other men, James Muir, A. M. Campbell and L. O. Jaderborg, to the site at the iunction of the two rivers where they found an abandoned cabin. Here they began to establish the location of the present city of Salina. As in the founding of any new settle-
