PAT RICHARDSON Redskins To Remember LINDA SAWYER '-11 DIANE SAWYER No Seneca basketball fan can forget George Unseld. As center for the first of Seneca,s great teams he was All-State in 1961, his senior year. At the University of Kansas he was second in scoring in the Big Eight and a member of the All-Conference team for two consecutive years. Mr. Unseld majored in Physical Education and Social Studies. After teaching one year at Newburg, this Unseld has now joined the Seneca High School faculty and is as- sistant basketball coach. Look out, opponents! A Redskin coaching Redskins should be dynamite. Westley Unseld graduated in 1964 as the finest basketball player ever produced by a Kentucky high school. He guided the Redskins to two consecutive state championships, in 1963 and 1964, and was named to the High School All American Team. Over eighty different colleges offered Westley scholarships. He chose the University of Louisville, where he led the freshman team to an undefeated season. In his first year of varsity basketball he became the heart of Louisvillefs team and broke Oscar Robertson's conference rebound record. Redskins join those who feel that Westley is a sure fire col- lege All-American of the future-the immediate future! Westley wore number 31 at Seneca-and to the Redskins it's off limits to all others. We want him to take 31 all the way! 232 NANCY C-LEAVES Seneca may-possibly never see two sisters as outstanding as Linda and Diane Sawyer Each served as the Arrowis Editor-in-Chief in her senior year. In America's Junior Mis: Pageant each won the county and state titles. Linda was first national runner-up am Diane was the national winner. Both attended Wellesley College. In her senior year at Wellesley Linda was awarded a Guest Editor Scholarship witl Mademoiselle Magazine. Selected Miss Kentucky of 1964, Linda proceeded to the naticna Miss America Pageant where she was among the ten finals competitors for the title. Diane, who will graduate this year, is majoring in English. She reigned as Queen of the 1965 Senior Bowl football game in Mobile, Alabama. We will never forget the night she was crowned America's Junior Miss of 1963 at the same time Seneca won its first state basketball trophy. GEORGE UNSELD WESTLEY UNSELD Miss Pat Richardson served as president of Seneca's Student Council, which she now sponsors, and was the Arrow's Copy Editor. At Western Kentucky State College she majored in Eng- lish and History and graduated in 1965. Miss Nancy Jean Gleaves attended Centre College and the University of Louisville. She majored in both English and Humani- ties and graduated in 1965. Nancy and Pat were the first two Seneca graduates to return to their alma mater after graduating from college. Both became members of the Seneca faculty in September 1965.
