Public Relations Club Exchange Program The beginning of the 1965-1966 school year found the Public Relations Club rack- ing their brains for ideas to raise money to sponsor the first Seneca High School student exchange. The club needed money fdesperatelyl, and all seemed lost until club president Nancy Brucchieri suggested a She-Male contest to raise the needed funds. Work began immediately on this project, the show took place and was a tremendous success. With the needed money, Sharon Moeerf, chairman of this new project, began writing to various schools who might be interested in the exchange program. After much correspondence, it was decided that the project could be carried out with University City High School in St. Louis, Missouri. Their Student Council would sponsor their part of the exchange and would send six UC students to Louisville during their spring va students would stay in arrangement would be eight hour bus trip to Nancy Hewitt, Sharon cation, the week preceeding the Seneca holidays. The UC the homes of Seneca scholars for their visit, and the same true for the Seneca exchangers after they had made the St. Louis. Nine Redskins, Bob Wooldridge, Sandy Baron, Mocerf, Susan Strohmeier, Pam Seigle, Elaine Wesley, Alicia Williams, and Joe Parrott, made the journey during spring vacation, April 11-17,'l966. They were cations, academic stan exchange, one of many between the students an The University City selected by a board of teachers who considered their appli- ding, and citizenship records. The first Seneca student for UC, was very successful, creating a better understanding d the schools. visitors arrived on Sunday, April 3, 1966, and that evening a get-acquainted party was held at the home of Alicia Williams. The UC guests included seniors Gail Goldman, Secretary of the Girls' Athletic Association, and Key to city. kj' . H' Mr. George Walsh .lay Schucart, Sergeant-at-Arms of tlie House of Representativesg juniors Joe Goodman and Linda Brown, editors of the Tom Tom,', the UC High newspaper, and Val Feldman, Student Coun- cil representativeg and sophomore Sheila Krawl, member of 'the A Capella choir. A look at the city lights from Iroquois hill ended the UC exchangers first night in Louisville. The week passed quickly. The St. Louis visitors went to school each day and observed various classes to learn about Seneca's educational system. On their first day at Seneca, a welcoming reception was held and the University City students were intro- duced to a few faculty members and to many Seneca students. The events of the week included prom decoration committee meetings, a snack a Big Abner's, dinner at Kunz's and a show, a visit to the Jefferson County Board of Education, and trips to see the Belle of Louisville, Standiford Field, and neighboring high schools. On the Wednesday night of their visit, a Public Relations Club meeting was held. At this meeting the UC I24 students were given keys to the City of Louisville by city official Mr. John Young, and they were made honorary pages of the House of Representatives. Mr. George Walsh spoke at this meeting. There were several small parties at private homes during the week to become more familiar with the guests and to let them see how the teenagers of Louisville live. The week ended with an open house held at the, home of Sandy Schneiter. Many people attended this open party, and the UC exchangers saw all their new friends before departing. The visitors from University City High School boarded a bus Saturday morning to retum home. The day was a sad one, but only one-half of the student exchange was over. On the following Monday, April 11, 1966, the nine stu- dents from Seneca boarded the Greyhound bus on their way to St. Louis, Missouri. Upon their arrival, they were greeted by students carrying welcoming signs and by the UC band., Some people who attended meeting
