Seneca Salutes Once again the members of the ARROW staff pause to give a special note of recognition and appreciation to those individuals who have done an out- standing job of reflecting the true Redskin spirit of greatness. Seneca is fortu- nate to have Carol Cisney to call its own. She must hold meetings with Lone- some himself to find ways in which she can serve her school. A certain part of Seneca's greatness must be attributed to Carol. She is Editor-in-Chief of the SENTINEL, a position which requires a great deal of work, imagination, en- thusiasm, and patience. The SENTINEL has improved very much under her capable leadership. Along this same line she Writes a Seneca news column for a community paper and is a member of the Quill and Scroll, Seneca's honorary literary association. She is secretary of the JCL, a job which requires an added amount of duties this year for planning of the National Convention held in Louisville. Carol is an active member of the French Club, and enjoys working on any club project. She does all of this and still maintains good grades in her studies. Carol has a great deal of school spirit and whole-heartedly attends all of the activities here at Seneca. Heaven only knows how she can handle all of this and still keep her charming smile and friendly manner which she extends future of happiness and success Carol Crsney Versatile is the word for Mrs. Peggy Davis. Although she has been at Seneca for only three years, she has readily put her bands into many activities here. She is sponsor of the Varsity Cheerleaders, the Public Relations Club, and the Junior Class. She has been partly responsible for the successful variety shows presented each year by the Juniors. From teaching and controlling 173 Ameri- can History TV students to organizing a She-Male contest, Mrs. Davis can be depended upon. Although small in size, she has a 'tbig heartv, enabling every- one she meets to easily like her. The time and effort she has devoted to many Redskin projects, her energy, enthusiasm, and her willingness to lend a hand are all reasons why Seneca gives thanks and salutes our own heap little Red- skinn, Mrs. Peggy. Davis. We wish to give recognition to a man who has had a vital role in the his- tory of Seneca. William 0. Wilson is serving his fifth year as Assistant Prin- cipal, and prior to this he was the Dean of Boys. Many students have benefited from his counseling and advice. He has devoted much time to the Junior Class, helping to make successful all their endeavors. He is a man of many talents and abilities. As the toastmaster of numerous banquets at Seneca, he is cheerful and entertaining, as well as an eloquent speaker. As an administrator he handles the task of scheduling students and teachers. ln addition Mr. Wilson takes care of the disciplinary problems, thus contributing to the betterment of our school's reputation. His guidance and understanding, diligence and hard work have been and continue to be an inspiration to those Redskins striving for success. Our hats go off to a wonderful person and loyal Redskin, wishing him every happiness in life. to all she meets. Seneca salutes Carol as an individual who is bound for a ' Mrs Peggy Davis' 1 A .asp-v 'ff HT? YW Don Graf Where would you go to find Don Graf? The job would not be an easy one, for Don is one of the busiest persons at Seneca. Several mornings a week you would find him in the band room, directing the Pep Band, his pride and joy. Don is very devoted to his group which is the best in the history of Seneca, and it would be impossible to draw him away from them. In the fall you would have found him writing shows for the Marching Band to use during halftime of the football games. You might find Don collecting food for the Christmas Basket Drive, or energetically working on any new Student Council project. In the evening you Mr. William O. Wilson would find him playing intramural basketball, or sharing the responsibilities of mak- ing successful the activities of the German Club and the Key Club. During Senior Play time you saw him playing his trombone in the orchestra. With all of this, Don still finds time to do school work, witnessed by the fact that he is a member of the Beta Club and the National Honor Society. He could be found tutoring some student who was having trouble in a particular subject. Probably the majority of Seneca students have seen Don putting up posters announcing coming events at school. He has a great love for Lonesome which is reflected in his enthusiasm and school spirit. Yes, Don Graf might be hard to find, but when you do find him you will meet a friendly, considerate person who will do anything you ask, from planning a skit for a pep rally to collecting for a Leukemia Drive. While doing all of this, his warm smile reflects a jolly personality. The minute you see him you realize that you have found a true Redskin. We salute Don and wish him all the best in the coming years.

Larry Trunnell Marcia Lipetz-Chuck MeClendon James Landau Reclskm The headline attraction of Seneca Sensations of 1965-66 was the Redskin AAA State Champion football team, which triumphantly brought this honor to both Seneca and Jefferson County for the first time, Never did so few do so much for the gridiron sport. The 'Skins drew capacity' crowds to every game in which they partici- pated and engendered a contagious enthusiasm that seemed to weld the student body together into almost as determined a force as the team itself. We have always been proud of Seneca's school spirit and sportsmanship, but, YOU, the members of our team under the expert guidance of coaches Cain, Eisamann, Gabhart, and Zampino, lifted Seneca to its zenith on November 19, 1965. To quote Mr. Eisamann on Victory Sunday, mln this case it isn,t appropriate to say the usual 'It doesn't matter if you win or lose, it's how you play the game', but rather it must be said that this team went out to win-worked to win-and did winf' Winners, we are proud to enter you in the Redskins Hall of Fame. Larry Trunnell is probably the only possessor of a triple state high school championship record earned in the Commonwealth of Kentucky during the past three years for proficiency in two de- manding athletic areas. Larry was a member of the two Seneca basketball squads that won the back-to-back state titles in 1962-63 and 1963-64 as well as the football team that won the Triple A football crown of 1965. It takes skill, a willingness to sacrifice hours of ones extra-curricular time, and demonstrates a loyalty and de- votion to your school that is far above and beyond the ordinary, to attain such a goal. You have set a fine example of physical fitness that other young men might emulate. Congratulations, Larry, and welcome to Senecais Hall of Fame. Scholarship winners are of prime interest to all Redskins because we take pride in intellectual achievements. Two ARROW scholar- ships were awarded for the first time in June 1965. Marcia Lipetz and Chuck McClendon were the worthy recipients of these honors given for outstanding service and leadership in all phases of school activity, while maintaining excellent academic records throughout their four years in Seneca High School. Marcia attends Douglass University and Chuck is a Fine Arts and biology major at lndiana University. James Landau was Senecais first Merit Scholarship Award winner. Always an outstanding student, Jim continues to do well at Michigan State where he is a mathematics major. It is fitting that these three names be added to the roster of our schoolss hall of fame. The Senior staff members of ARROW ,65 earned a new honor for Seneca High School when the yearbook they gave hours of extra- curricular time to producing won a first place award in.the annual Columbia Press High School Publications competition. Little Joe, who was always proud of the leadership abilities of this group, flings wide the door of the Redskinis Hall of Fame to admit them.
