You were prospective members of the seventh grade of Seneca High School. Remember how excited you were at the thought of attending Junior High School? At that time, your vision in the mirror was quite different from now. You were either short and fat, or tall and awkward, with a seeming abundance of arms and legs! Notice the manner in which you dressed. Well, those T-shirts and ankle socks were comfortable anyway! Pony tails were definitely din . How nice it was to be blissfully unaware of the finer things in life! Your entrance as seventh graders in the fall of 1961 marked a distinct change in your attitude toward life in general. Cone were the ankle socks of elementary school days. You were the sophisticated Redskin papoose and you just had to keep up that image. Round collar blouses, A line skirts, button-down collar shirts, pants, and adler socks and weejuns replaced the dress, T-shirt, shorts, and sad- dle shoes of yesteryear. Although you had a hard time maintaining your status in those first few days of fighting gigantic upperclassmen, you soon got into the swing of things . Remember those endless core classes, gym exercises, and songs you sang to the tune of Mr. Dorsey's piano? By the time June, 1962, rolled around you were quite confident of your position as a member of the Redskin tribe. 19 63 Basketball Trophy .lanet Koenig Core Class Presidents I pi In the eighth grade, your self-assurance was boosted immensely with the knowledge that you were no longer the youngest. This self- assurance was manifested in several areas. You joined clubs and junior high activities. You elected a distinguished group of core class presidents. Your participation in sports was also noteworthy. Remember that Gray-Y basketball trophy? You also began to attend Seneca social functions, Your appearance was distinctly' improving. You no longer saw that awkward vision in the mirror. Remember when you elected Janet Koenig to represent you in the calendar contest? What better example of poise and confidence can be found than in her lovely picture?
