Senecan'tMy apologies for missing this one, but a passing of particular interest to the Philly crowd: Traynor Ora Halftown, better known simply as Chief Halftown, headed for the happy hunting grounds July 8 at the age of 86. From 1951 until 1999, Chief Halftown hosted a children's Saturday morning program on the local ABC affiliate, starting each show with the "tribal chant" "Ees-da-sussa-saway," which was Seneca for "Let's get started."
