As Juniors, we suddenly realized how close we were to the year, our senior year. The need for real class organization was shown through our choice of class officers. Our 1971-1972 officers were: Tom McKen- zie. President; David May, Veep; Susie Spurlocl , Sec ' y.; Cindy Stone, Treasurer; and Mike Goldring and Charlie Walls, Sgt. at Arms. In December, our class sponsored the annual Junior Class Talent Show, and managed to make it the most successful one in Seneca ' s history. Also, in February, we sponsored the Basketball Homecoming. Debbie Clements, the Junior Class Representative, along with other Juniors, Sandra Overall and Mary Yates, adorned the JCL Calendar. In May, we received our long-awaited Senior rings. During the Jun- ior Ring Assembly, several of us were honored with well-deserved awards. On May 21, twenty-one of us were inducted into the National Honor So- ciety. As the year drew to a close, a quiet anticipation overcame us, for we were finally on the tjueshold. PATTY COLLINS RICKY AKAM Business Leaders of Tomorrow

I won! I won! The five senior members of the wrestling team. Almost before we knew it, we were Seniors. It was impossible to believe that we had become the oldest and were the leaders of the school. Sev- eral of us accepted positions of respon- sibility for major organizations: Tim Mountz, Senior Class; Tom McKen- zie, Student Council; Eddie Laity, ARROW; Joe Yates, SENTINEL: Joe De- Muth, AURORA; Charlie Walls, N.H.S.; and Leigh Armstrong, Beta Club. The Human Relations Commit- tee, composed of nine seniors and two juniors, was organized to promote un- derstanding. As the new year began, we plung- ed into football season. Several sen- iors were starters on the team, includ- ing: Mark Greene, George Logan, Da- vid Tillett, Melvin Evans, Charlie Walls, David May, Willie Dix, Tom Balmer, and Ross Cameron. Although our record was not a winning one, spirit and enthusiasm were high. At Football Homecoming, Susie Spurlock was crowned queen with Imogene Bank- ston, Patty Collins, and Gale Bryant in her court. The Senior Class continued its dom- ination in the JCL Calendar Contest with seven girls chosen to represent us. They were: Rhonda Anderson, Imo- gene Bankston, Sandy Barr, Gale Bry- ant, Lisa Hacker, Debbie Nethery, and Susie Spurlock. The months of October and Novem- ber found many of us involved in the production of the Senior Play, FUN- NY GIRL. It starred Karen Weinstein as Fanny Brice and Steve John as Nick Arnstein. With rehearsals lasting un- til midnight, we learned that practice makes perfect. By opening night ev- ery member of the cast and crew had become a unified body determined to make FUNN ' GIRL the greatest Play ever. With laughter and tears we re- joiced after the final curtain had clos- ed; for a fantastic experience was end- ing. Back on the sports scene, the Red- skin basketball team was outclassing its opponents with a senior dominated club. Leading 7th Region scoring was Wayne Cosby. He was supported by Eddie Tillett, Melvin Evans, Steve Jones, Jim Doyer, and Doran Duna- way. The wrestling team was off to another fine season led by five senior matmen. In the Falls Cities Invit. , Len Jacobsen became the third divi- sional winner in Seneca history. With new EQP scheduling, several members of our class were able to leave school at the end of February . The rest of us weren ' t far behind. May 18, our last day, arrived all too soon. The Prom with Tommy Walker at the Seelbach Hotel, Awards Night, and Graduation became memories of the past. As we look back and reflect upon our six years, we cross the bridge to new experiences and opportunities, bidding Seneca High School a fond farewell.
