Today, American schools · have the responsibi I ity of . helping their pupils to discover and develop their talents, to I ive with others, to support themselves and to govern themselves. Self realization, social relationships, economic efficiency and civic responsibility have been designated, in consequence , as the aims of modern education.
Each department in Lincoln high school carefully plans its program to give the pupils the maximum chance to develop in all these ways. Activities and studies, each the outgrowth of some department, blend together forming a balanced program which extends far beyond the classroom, into the life of the community.
The purpose of the 1940 Links is to show how the staff and students of Lincoln high school do their part to carry out these aims of modern education
A mural for the cafeteria rapidly nears completion at the hands of

Each student of Lincoln high school is considered not as one three-thousandth of the student body, but as an individual.
His course in high school is planned to enable him to realize and develop his interests and his own personality. One of the primary concerns of education is therefore self realization, to help the individual expand and enlarge his talents and knowledge.
In Lincoln high school a student's · ambitions may be realized in any number of ways. Painting murals, making a dress, mixing chemicals, taking part in athletics or plays, working our personal problems, or belonging to a club, all tend to develop abilities and round out education.
Learning her lesson through actual practice, Phyllis Robinson reflects in her face her earnest attempt to thread the sewing machine needle.
Beginning in the home and extending through the school, on into later life, social relationships are of the utmost importance.
Anyone who attends a pub Iic school with an enrollment of 3,000 rubs shoulders with a cross section of the fife of the community . Such is a true democracy Since a student's relations • with his family, his teachers, and most important, his classmates, will determine, for the most part, . his success in later life, his school studies, classes and activities all are planned to give him the opportunity of learning to mingle with other people.
Clean portsmanship, fair play and the ability to get along with others are traits developed in athletics.
Friendly contacts during the lunch hour enlarge the student's social sphere.
The use of k n ow I edge go i ned through classwork and experience gathered in actual practice produce an individual who is qualified to take his place in the world.
By supprying occupational information, by teaching courses that will assist the student . in choosing a vocation and, in some cases, by actually obtaining employment for the students, Lincoln high school has attempted to prepare its pupi Is to take part in our economic civilization.
Carefully considering the • future economic security of its students, the high school offers in addition to usual academic subjects such diversified courses as bookkeeping, salesmanship training, home economics, auto mechanics, electricity and carpentry.
Using a combination of technical knowledge and his own ingenuity, William Schildt assembles a motor in auto mechanics class. Don Duncan, Alvin Schneider and Clifford Schaffer gain first hand knowledge of electricity as they put in place a portion of the seven miles of • cable needed for the sound system.
To help the student become an intelligent and trustworthy member of his community-that is one of education's chief goals.
Participating in student government, voting in all school elections, taking an active part in student sponsored committees such as courtesy and safety all help train a student for responsibility in civic affairs.
Alertness to improving conditions within the school, readiness to cooperate with those connected with the actual administration and willingness to accept these duties and observe regulations all indicate the true citizen.
Taking charge of the safety campaigns, the stu, dent coun ~il, here in the person of Robert Schaufel , berge r, dtsplays safety poster s.
Regular high school elections follow the pattern of Lincoln's city elections. Here Gilbert Ryder and Virginia Ford mark their ballots.
Pu re democracy may be the ideal form of rule but it ceases to be practical when applied to large units, as exemplified by the unwieldy political structure of ancient Athens. A representative democracy, or a republic, has proved the most successfu I form of government today, and Lincoln high school has patterned its administration after this model.
The student r e p re s e n ta t i v e bodies, the faculty and executives assume specific responsibilities necessary to have the system f unction at its best . In all ruling bodies a supplementary force to carry out the technical, clerical and routine work in governing is needed; the clerks, custodians and assistants make up Lincoln high school's administrative personnel, cooperating with the principal executives to .produce efficient school management.
Standing between the public and the schoo l system is a group of six selected citizens, the board of education, which interprets the wishes of the people, shapes school policies and handles the problems of education, such as choosing faculty members and purchasing building equipment and classroom supplies. It is their primary function to supply the proper facilities to develop worthy, conscientious new citizens.
The new sound system is indisputable evidence of the alertness to new and improved methods of teaching and equipping Lincoln high school shown by the board of education and the principal. Financed largely through proceeds from Joy Night, this sound system was install ed and ready
fo1 use by the latter part of April, this year.
The equipment- consists of two radio receiving sets with a record attachment and switch panel. The panel contains a switch for each room in the school and provides the necessary facilities to enable the off ice personnel and any designated teacher to communicate with each other. History making speeches and other important events which occur outside of school hours may be recorded and played back to classes during the day. Assemblies can be heard by any room desiring to listen and instructions can be relayed quickly to any group or teacher.
In the superintendent, Millard C. Lef, ler, this board finds a capable official, highly informed and consistently progres, sive, who is instrumental in equipping and operating the city schools. Aided by the members of the school board, the assistant superintendent, supervisors and teachers, he is constantly working toward the goal of a better ed ucational system.

As a mm1ature republic a school is greatly dependent upon the principal, its leader, to keep its government functioning ably and skillfully. Mr Mardis through his extensive reading and study of new and be tter suggestions for school curriculums, succeeds in putting into practice improved ideas for a more modern system of educati on. Th e orientation of students in their school life, unceasing attention to the endless flow of routine affairs and the devotion of a grea t deal of his time to\va rd a better understanding of the pupils and their problems, is Mr. Mardis ' direct obligation, ad equately fulfilled.
Through her extensive conferences with girls, Miss Pound has acquired a remarkable insight into the difficulties and seemingly inadequate adjustments which occur so frequently •in high school life. Because • of her kind advice in all student problems, her generous aid in securing work and as , sistance for needy girls and her fund of information on schools and colleges, high school girl:; find in her a true friend and understanding counselor.
Giving counsel and advice, helping ad , just unsatisfactory curriculums, always keeping in contact with social agencies in order to help students find o:::cupation, giving his max i mum support to boys who find it difficult to carry the burden of school, jobs and other worries, Mr. Hackman manages all student adjustments with the minimum of friction and points out vocational opportunities so capably that he has a reputation as an indispensable adviser to high school boys.

Throu gh fift ee n y e ars of generous and unceasing service, Edna B. Williams, by her sympathy and understanding, made h erself beloved by stud e nts and faculty alike.
Ever willing to interrupt her many duties to help someone, she often worked far beyond her capacity. She was always ready to give advice on registration, to help students find what they like d to do and to counsel them in times of stress.
Of h e r Miss Pound, assistant principal, wrote at th e tim e of her passing, "She was so kindh ea r te d a nd self -effacing that both pupils and faculty un wi ttingly took more of her time and s tr e n gth th an sh e should have given
"Pupils found Miss Williams so kindly and sympathetic that fre quently they would confide in h er w h en no one e lse in the school could find out th eir t ro u bles."
F or h er endl ess patience, for her constant ki n dnes , for her d ee p understanding, for all t h ese qualities, M iss Williams will always be remembered by the fa culty and by the long proce ssion of pupils who owed so much to her.

To Mrs Pierce is due much of the credit for the variety in menus and delicacy of food for which the cafeteria is noted. Under Mrs Pierce's excellent supervision the cafeteria is run cap- ably and attractively.
In the office, bookroom, library and cafeteria the administrative assistants are aided by members of the National Youth Administration and other students. Valuable instruction is thus gained through actual experience in such duties as serving food, clearing tables and acting as cashiers in the cafeteria, stacking and checking books in the bookroom, assisting pupils in the library, and filing absences, taking around call slips and telephoning in the office.

The main governing body of Lincoln high school is the student council, and, mainly through its efforts, many improvements and varied activities are available t o the pupils. The council is e le cted by the school at large and is divided into comm ittees which have such duties as putting up pen na nts each week for promptness, sponsoring matinee dances, serving as hall guides, studying all aspects of safety in the school, and recording points for extra-curricular activities.
T o th e stud ent council also goes much of the credit for J oy N ight, Lincoln high school's an, nual variety sh ow. The Joy Night committee se lects the acts, plans rehearsals, supervises the m aking of scen ery and collecting of properties and, with th e cooperation of the faculty, home ro om r epr ese nt ativ es and student body, sees that the sh ow is ex t ens iv ely advertised.
This gro u p brmgs together the different stu, dent ideas, studies the m, and is directly respon, sible for th eir realiza tion.

With El Rancho Grande as its theme this year, Joy Night was an unqualified success, running for thr ee consecu, tive nights to near capacity crowds. A brilliantly colored tile-roofed adobe ranch house decorated with hanging Mexican gourds and gay flowers served as a background for the acts, nearly all of which carried out the theme.
The new sound system made its first professional appearance for the benefit of th e late-comers who were ushered into 201 to eliminate disturbance. A broadcast of the acts was carried into the room where they waited, and connec, tions were also made with 226 where the actors listened to the program and awaited their cues . After the show the off ice was opened a nd the sound equipment was placed on display for all who wished to see it .
.A fleeting glimpse of Joy Night is caught in these pie, _ tures showing the ushers who lent atmosphere with their colorful western costumes; an L club tumbler in the middle of a back flip; the Rangerettes singing out on a western melody ; the men of the faculty giving us Home on the Range on pop bottles ; and Stan McCune and the boys "getting hot" with In the Mood
Unlike any other performance, Joy Night holds open to every pupil in Lincoln high school a chance to participate as an individual or with a group. The diligent preparation a nd close cooperation of students and faculty help make it one of the high spots of entertainment during the school year.

Because of their intimate touch ~ith the student body, home room representatives are able to interpret the desires of the students and transmit them to the student council and faculty. In this manner the wishes of the students are recognized, a fact that serves to keep Lincoln high school truly democratic and alive to current student problems .
Among the many duties of the home room representatives are supervising elections, collecting class dues and reporting the immediate functions of the governing bodies to the school at large. The pictures on this page show other activities of the home room representatives.
Robert Lindahl is selling Shirley Kushner an activity ticket in home room. Supervising the sale of activity tickets is one of the most important duties of the home room representatives and the number of tickets sold is largely due to the efforts of this body.
Deane Dowell stops to chat with Amy Ladd Colburn, fifth period hall guard. Though hall guarding is not a specific duty of the representatives, many of them serve in this capacity.
Ruth Grant gives an example of what every home room alternate does on Wednesday morning, as she distributes Advocates to her home room. The alternates return the money and extra papers to the Advocate off ice where a weekly report of sales is - kept.
Showing some Falls City basketeers the green house is Joyce Crosby. Every member of the home room representatives who is available is subject to call to act as guide for visitors. This is one of the finest courtesies afforded visitors.
T he efficient and painstaking manner in which ro ut ine affairs of Lincoln high school are performed is d u e in large measure to the excellent custodial force. Aided by members of the National Youth A dministration, t h ese custodians provide for the comfort and convenience of students and faculty.
Quietly and with dispatch, they carry out the more prosaic duties that must be performed, such as polishing marble, sweepmg halls, cleaning windows and rooms, repairing lockers, window shades and desks, and providing for proper heating and light, ing by checking on room temperatures and light fixtures.
T heir responsibility is tremendous for, under Mr. Geistlinger's leadership, they have charge of the preservation and upkeep of one of the state's most beautiful school buildings, full of expensive and intricate equipment. All the scenery and lighting effects used in the plays are in their ch arge, and they must be ready to meet co u ntles u nseen eme rgencies and to guard the safety of 3,000 p u pils .
MR . G EIST L IN G ERRobert Blomenkamp shows Mr Mardis particulars of the new fire drill system which he perfected.
D i vis ion into sop homo res, juniors and seniors is a separation designed merely to make Lincoln high school with its large enrollment a more flexible organization. The old spirit of enmity between the classes is now rarely revived even at olympics which is largely a friendly competition.
Si nee members of a group as , large as the sophomore class composed of some thousand students, have little opportunity to meet one another, activities including their class party and assemblies give them a chance to widen their acquaintanceships. Some of the traditional class functions sti II survive; seniors and juniors each present a class play, and every division is headed by its . own officers and sponsors.
~ine ~undred seniors are graduating, takmg with them memories of countless friendships and activities, of their sopho, more party, of initiating Open House in th eir fi rst year, Laburnum Grove the junior p lay, co lor and class days, You ~nd I, th e seni 0 r p lay, olympics, the senior picnic, the pa~t y, and those crowning activities, th e senior sermo ns delivered by Dr. Walter Aitk en and the Rev. R. A. McConnell and commence ment with the senior speak~ ers, Normajean Brittain and Dorothy Buls , Virginia Barch and Donald M eyer.
But as these seniors look back on their si x seme _tc:rs in high school they realize, p erhaps for the first time, what aspects of th e~r c~n:~r~ have been vitally affected by th eir md1 v1dua l experiences in Lincoln
high. Moments in classes, as emb li es, clubs and sports flash befor e th em as guiding forces in their lives
That second in chemistry when she dis, covered an unknown chemical compound, that day when he caught a glimpse of th~ merchandising course and liked it; when he saw his poem printed in the Scribe, his story in the Advocate; when she, as a stu, dent assistant, caught a glimpse of a class "from the other side of the desk ;" when she found herself in a brisk game in the gymnasium.
Such experiences, developing them in, dividually and socially, in responsibility and efficiency, have an indelible influence on their future careers.

Interpreting the sensitiYe and impelling story of Philip Barry's prize winning comedy, You and I, the seniors provided a welcome interlude from the types of drama usually presented by high school students.
The dilemma of a young man who must choose between marriage and a ~uccessful career furnished the plot. Action revolved around him and his father who, ironically, faced the same problem in his youth. The elder man chose to marry, but after twenty years becomes restless and discouraged. Desiring to pick up the threads of his abandoned ambitions, he r'etires and starts painting. The interference of his wife and his former employer and the failur¢ of his picture make him realize the futility of his new en, deavors. Returning to work, l he makes it possible for his son both to mar;ry the girl and prepare for the profession of his' dreams.
Commendable cas ting, admirable interpreta, tion of characters and excellent coaching made the audience unusually appreciative. But the fact that this performance was a three-ring circus of innovations is probably most responsible for its enthusiastic reception. The atmosphere of the novel setting, a top floor studio with a skylight was extremely effective. Not only were the tree tops, which showed through the window, sur, prisingly realistic but the pe rspective within the room was convincingly true.
Perhaps the most pleasing feature was the first appearance of a dog on the school's stage. Houdini, a veteran trooper, exhibited almost as much talent and poise as his co-actors. Another first was scored by the use of a complete double cast.
Undoubtedly this delightful romance set a new standard for Lincoln high school productions.

Proving that they are not simply understudies to the seniors, the juniors rival their efders in enthusi, astic participation in many activities. Not content with receiving school-wide recognition by presenting their own play, these ambitious second-year students compose for the most part the editorial staff of the Advocate, are well represented in intraschool· athletic competition and hold their own in council deliberations.
An outstanc;ling feather in their collective hat this year is the fact that a junior won the Faulkner cup contest and that all officers of the home room representative body are members of their class.

Maser, True, Brown, EberhardtWith flags and balloons, dogs and cats, checks and inheritanc~.s, the juniors presented The Youngest as their annual drama. The clever dialogue and humorous scenes of Philip Barry's de, lightful comedy provided an excellent vehicle for the versatility and energy of these talented underclassmen.
The plot revolves around the title character, young Richard Winslow who, although his only wish is to be left alone with his dog, cat and manuscripts, faces the strong opposition of his
pin-manufacturing family which exhorts him to enter their business. Debutante Nancy Blake de, termines to save the youngest from his nagging relatives and succeeds in maneuvering him into independence, but in the end surrenders her own freedom to him.
The dog and cat included in the cast added to the charm of the play which more than equalled other productions in sensitive understanding and effective portrayal of characters.
Tbe toss of a coin meant nothing to Jack Kennedy as Richard Hay vainly tries to win the affection of Nelda Oltman. Dorothy Tilton, student director, seems to have as much difficulty over the lines as the members of the cast. Nelda Olt, man, the young debutante, pets the kitten in · Jack Kennedy's arms.

Marsh, Beck, Blumer, Howard Anderson, Leadley, Marx, HallWith a probable three years of high school life lying before them, a new group of sophomores hesitates for a moment on the threshold of Lincoln high. Bewildered with the vastness of their undertaking, they are grateful for the special assemblies which, under the steady and friendly hand of Mr. Mardis, depict student government, extra-curricular activities and opportunities for vocational training.
The first slight touch to relieve the uncer, t inty of these new students is the sophomore party, at which a "gay old time" is provided for
them with entertainment by clubs, games and dancing in the gymnasium and refreshments in the cafeteria.
To compensate, perhaps, for their newness, these sophomores engage in numerous activities, putting energy and intelligence into their cabinet duties, interclass debate, athletics, some even appearing in the Mimes assembly, some fervently singing and playing in music activities and ail, in a general manner, entering into the "spirit of things."
Pondering official duties are Miss Ethel B. Beattie and Mrs. Gladys Temple, sponsors of the class of '43. Very promising are the prospects of the next sophomore event, judging from Mrs. Bernard Smith and Mrs. Frances Rein, class of '42 sponsors.

The "where and when" of club meetings is posted on the bulletin by
Courses of study in Lincoln. high school logically fall into five categories: Languages and soc i a I studies; fine arts; science and mathematics; home, business and industry; physical education.
These five departments form the nucleus of the program of modern education in which students do not labor merely to eorn grades but to develop their abilities and talents.
Al I activities and clubs are, in reality, the offshoot of some department program and their accomplishments are the complement of work done in the departments themselves. Nat u r a 11 y some phases of the four purposes of modern education wi 11 be stressed more than others in a class; the most im.portant function of club activities is to round out the student's educational . experience by further emphasis on the phases not accentuated in class.
Becoming more closely acquainted with our language, through appreciation of its scope learning foreign languages, with which we can enrich our speech studying methods of government and economic organization these are factors which contribute to three chief requi, sites of a socially productive mind, the means of clearly ex.Pressing and easily gr~sping ideas, knowledge of previous social experiments and an understanding of present problems.
Besides teaching the student how to express himself in another language, the foreign language department introduces him to the culture of another people through their speech and enlarges his voc abul a ry by showing the relation of Eng, lish t o ot h er languages. The English department with it s eighteen ourses, helps the student app r eciate hi s language, achieve sufficient skill in the use of English, broaden his literary apprecia, tion a nd f i nd his dormant ability in literary f ields. In social science the student, gathering information from all periods of history, acquires facts which he can apply to the better understanding of his fellows and his own government and of his civic responsibilities.
A large number of the school's clubs are specific developments of English and social science classes and often off er more to the student in the way of self realization than a class itself can. The Forum, composed of debaters, orators and extemporaneous speakers, contributes the Faulkner cup contest in oratory to school activities . The Mummers production each year creates a common ground where seniors and juniors may work together in the same play. T he Mimes, a sophomore organization which gains in importance each year, has become the school's chief interpreter of Shakespeare. The writers club, by sponsoring the Scribe, an annual of original compositions, offers a valuable addition to the • school's publications. Also a newer club, the Round Table, develops the sense ·of appreciation for the latest books and motion pictures.
Social relations are emphasized in the Hi~ Y and Girl Reserves orgam'.zations, and through congenially mingling with others, students fully realize the complexities of society and their duties toward others.
The study of a language foreign to him causes the student to appreciate the culture of another people and the amount of influence their speech has exerted on his own. In the foreign language departments, the student gains the pleasure of speaking a different tongue, enriches his own Yocabulary and c~mes into contact with a cosmopolitan point of view.
The language student usually begins his studies with Latin, since it is the root of some six modern tongues, and this study provides a basis for more extensive language training. In the advanced Latin classes the student who reads from the works of the greatest Roman writers and orators wonders at their discussion of social revolutions, world trade, unstable currency and other seemingly modern problems.
The student may increase his knowledge of language by taking up French, German, or Spanish. The content of these courses is not limited to grammatical principles, and a special effort is made to relate the modern language courses to the rest of the individual's curriculum in such fields as history, cur, rent events and world literature. English derivatives from foreign sources are emphasized consistently, and stress is laid on the relation of foreign langu, ages to English.
The student receives first-hand knowledge of life in a foreign country by means of letters from a student correspondent studying English in his own school. Part of many of these letters is written in English and the rest in the correspondent's tongue so each can see how the other expresses himself in his own language.
Advanced French students receive Le Petit Journal, a newspaper printed especially for French stu, dents in America. This paper increases interest in the course, and is an important mean of enlarging the student's French vocabulary.
The entering sophomore is introduced •to the English department through English 3, which de, velops his appreciation of literature from Bret Harte to Dickens. He continues his course of orientation in the department with English 4 where he samples portions of almost every English course offered. Here he comes in contact with a little newswriting, participates in a debate, studies library cataloging arid arrangement, tries his hand at original compo, sition, becomes better acquainted with the diction, ary and drills on the mechanics of English.
After these courses which help ·the student ap, preciate the strength and beauty of English and the possibilities in its use, understanding instructors aid him in discovering his talents in the fields of acting, speaking or writing. The department offers the Advocate for the budding newswriter, debate in, struction for those interested in argumentation, pub, lie speaking for the future after dinner raconteur and Shak es p eare for future audiences and actors. The histories of English and American literature are devel oped in classes which give new insight into the ch a r acter of the works of authors through knowl, ed ge o f the events of the times in which they wrote. The latest contemporary writings in the changing magazine field are read for pleasure and profit in a class especially designed for that purpose. A de, tailed grammar course is offered for those who wish to pursue the intricacies of English structure, and a course which develops creative ability may be taken by the beginning writer. English 11 is designed to gather the threads of other English courses offered in Lincoln high and weave them into a fitting cli, max for English training
Therefor through its instructors with their deep insight and its extensive courses the English depart, ment develops the student's ability to express his ideas clearly in his own tongue and find himself in the field of literary arts.
Winners of the Midland college invitational, the Hastings invitational, the girls regional, the district and the state tournaments, this year's debate team experienced one of the most triumphant seasons in the last ten years. Lincoln high debaters won 99 out of 12 3 possible decision de, bates on the question, Resolved: that the federal government should own and operate the railroads.
The fourteenth annual Midland invitational tournament was the first championship captured, the Hastings invitational event being the next Luck slipped in the next two tournaments, the team just missing the finals of the Peru and
Doane debates.
But Meyer and Bouwsma came back with new spirit and captured the district championship with fifteen straight decisions, and the next week Mar, jorie Rollins and Phyllis Overman won the girl's regional debate tournament.
Then for the second time in ten years, Lin, coln high became state champions as the greatest debate honor in the state was seized by the team of Bouwsma and Meyer.
Some one hundred students participated in this year's interclass tournament, the largest the English department has sponsored to date.

Dedicated to the arts of public speaking and argumentation, the Forum is one of the busiest clubs in the school. The first meeting of the year is given over to initiating the officers of all the other clubs into the intricacies of parliamentary drill and of conducting meetings.
It is the only club that shows its recognition of the importance of friendships made in school by holding an alumni meeting. In the second semes, ter the Forum celebrates the coming of spring with a festive banquet, and ends its yearly activi ties with a hilarious picnic.
The most important activity sponsored by the Forum is the Faulkner cup contest in oratory. • This year there were more entrants than ever before, since for the first time, the contest was opened to the whole school. Judges chose Ghita Hill, Albert Johnston and Virginia Stuermer as finalists. By his delivery of Children Don ' t Vote, an argument for more school appropriations and fewer old age pensions, Albert Johnston won the coveted honor of having his name inscribed on the cup.

To help the student express himself in a dra, matic way is the purpose of the Mummers, the organized junior-senior drama supporters in the school.
Programs at each meeting usually include a play, and before the semester is over each mem, ber has had an opportunity to demonstrate his talent through club activities. Drama apprecia, tion is encouraged, also, through reports on current theater productions and actors of the pres, ent stage. Experience before an audience is
Townsend, Shirley, Todd, Sorensen, Ware, Smith, Stoddard Weiss, Newman, Stratton, Penner, Stam, Schupbach, Schultz
gained through the Mummers sketch for Joy Night, assembly plays and the annual production.
First in the school's dramatic season, the plays that the Mummers produce often diverge slightly from the usual sketches that high school casts attempt, and for this reason are experiments to see what a high school audience can or cannot appreciate. The success of the more ambitious Mummers production sets a standard for other plays produced in the school.

A mystery drama rep.resented the Mummers' twenty-third annual production. Centering around the contents of the mysterious brown envelope, the intriguing story kept the audience gripping their seats for the full one hundred and twenty minutes.
In the first act the heroine opens the envelope, -and to her surprise discovers it contains a hundred thousand dollars. Crooks, eager to possess the money, enter the plot, stuffed owls give atmosphere to the story, pictures fall to foretell death, and the chauffeur is found dead, stabbed in the back.
The second and third acts take place on board a yacht, where midnight prowlers wake the dead, a Chinese cabin boy lends an air of comedy to the p roceedings, and a bookworm steward adds confu, sio n to the story. All turns out well in the end though, and love in traditional wise conquers.
No little part of the success was due to the unique scenery of the second and third acts; an ex, tremely realistic yacht interior was constructed by the manual arts d epartment.

TheLargely through the efforts of the Mimes, Shakespeare has become an indigenous part of our school activities. Founded for the sophomore actor, the Mimes have taken an increasing inter, est in Elizabethan drama, and for the last two years they have presented scenes from Shake, peare's comedi~s for their annual assembly.
This year's play, Twelfth 'Night, was acclaim, ed by teachers and devotees of Shakespeare alike; both agreed that the production smacked of the art of the bard of Avon. The play was presented
as nearly as possible in the manner which pre, vailed in Shakespeare's time. There were no cur, tains between scenes, the scenery was of the simplest, and the elaborate costumes were in the Elizabethan style.
Viola, the masquerading heroine, was portray, ed by Janice Marx, and her dashing twin, Sebastian,, by Jack Zumwinkel. Jack Blankenship created the Puritan, Malvolio; Dale Wisser played the irresponsible Sir Toby Belch and J ack Wen, strand, the hesitant Sir Andrew Aguecheek.

Li te ra ry expression is zealously encouraged and foste r ed b y the writers club. Each semester new members are chosen by a club committee from the manuscripts submitted for try-outs.
To offer an audience for original manuscripts, a part of each meeting is devoted to reading the members' own creative efforts. The club also gives a part of each meeting to discussing and reading stories and poems by modern writers. In short, development of the talent of its members and their literary appreciation is the theme of the writers club.
To provide an outlet for literary talent the writers club issues its own magazine, the Scribe.
This publication is the school's yearbook of orig , inal pieces and is eagerly awaited by all the writers in the school as the date of •distribution approaches. Contributions are accepted from the school at large and the selection of the best material is indeed a hard task for the editors.
This year's Scribe, edited by Roberta Stam, Frances Dietze, Merriam Mann and Mary Louise Babst, overflowing with subtle humor, refreshing anecdotes, serious narration and bits of fancy, permitted the student to see his writing in print and provided enjoyment for others. Its pleasing poetry and sparkling prose make a fitting tribute to the creative genius of Lincoln high.

By reporting school news and thus publicising school I activities, the Advocate has served the chool for the 46 9 years of its existence. From the first copy, which looked more like a- magazine than a newspaper, it has advanced to the streamlined paper which this year won an all-state rating from the Nebraska high school press association critical service for the fifth consecutive time and an All, American rating from the national organization for the eleventh time.
Advertising student affairs is by far the most impor, tant service the Advocate renders the school. All plays, operas, athletic events, and club activities are given due pub, licity. Not only the sophomores, who do not yet know of the many activities of Lincoln high, but also the upperclass, men learn of the extra-curricular interests in connection with their high school program.
To register the public pulse, the Advocate conducts a poll of student opinion by sending questionnaires on timely subjects to cross sections of the students, carefully selected so that pupils from all types of homes will be represented.

Besides providing the graduating student with memories of the good old days at Lincoln high school, this year's Links tries to present the pur, poses of the modern educational trends.
This twenty-fourth volume of the Links is not intended to dictate educational policies or the, ories to the student, but has striven to help him understand these ideals by illustrations of their use in Lincoln high.
To provide a basis for a clear understanding of these purposes, the 1940 Links has been separated into three divisions, the staff of the school, the classes and the different departments, each of which deals with its own functions, activities and achievements. The last division is subdivided log, ically into five groups: languages and social studies written by Elmer Sprague; science and mathematics compiled by Norman Herdt; fine arts assembled by Leeola Hefti; home, business and industry supervised by Hal Bosserman and

athletics jointly composed by Craig Hubbard and Jean Schleuning. The assemblies which relate to each department, clubs and other intensifications that are its outgrowths, are grouped together. The regular staff of the Links was supplemented by Turney Sharrar who did the sketches on the division sheets and Chester Porter who designed the cover.
The work done by pupils on the Links is in itself an excellent example of modern education's purposes. The contacts with teachers and pupils, and the experiences and knowledge gleaned from creating the year book all broadened the students, scope of appreciation of their life in Lincoln high.
The completed book shows that while the separate departments differ greatly, their composite aim is the same ; to help enlarge the social horizon and to develop each student's talents and personality so that he may become economically efficient and conscious of his civic duties.

Rachael Lock, business manager, and James Town, send, her assistant, try to balance the books.Since they first originated, governments have been both beneficial and trying to people, but it is evident that we must have some organization to carry on the processes of society. A modern education is not complete unless some time has been spent in considering the social o rganiz,ations of the past and present, and possibilities for the future. For this reason social science classes are laboratories in which students study not only the various kinds of governments, and how these governments operate in practice, but also discover the conditions that brought them into existence, and how they met the social problems of their time.
Because the student is not mentally equipped to take his place in society without some knowledge of the work, ings of his government and the significance of his economic system, courses in history and related subjects are necessary parts of every student's curriculum .
The Greeks and Romans are subjected to scrutiny in the ancient history classes and a composite picture of Euro, pean history from its beginning in Mesopotamia to the totali, tarianism on the continent today is given in modern history. Our own governmental organization and the development of our country are examined in American history, and an opportunity is offered to com pare our methods with those used in other parts of the world. All the social studies classes combined to discuss labor problems, governments, eco, nomics, agricultural readjustment, health and other social issues on the Columbia School of the Air broadcast. For the first twenty minutes of the program a dramatization of the current topic came from Columbia University, and in the last ten minutes students from Lincoln high school carried on a round table discussion about the dramatization adding their original observation
The complex economic structure of our society is de, fined and studied in economics, and the various social parties existing today and their methods of reform and governmental administration are dissected in modern problems classes All contribute to that vital quality, civic responsibility, which the socially minded citizen must possess.

An organization designed to further the ideals of good citizenship is the Hi-Y. This club has expanded to include three chapters, senior, junior and sophomore.
The Hi-Y building, besides providing a meeting place for these groups, is utilized as a place of fellowship and a dining room for a majority of the male population of the high school during the lunch hour.
Near the end of every spring semester a "Find yourself" campaign is sponsored which provides invaluable advice to those interested in receiving information from experts in various fields.

Lively signs advertising meetings, picnics, conferences of the Girl Reserves are not overdone. This group of girls really enjoys some of the most zestful affairs scheduled in high school. It actively promotes a program supplementing that of the Y.W.C.A. It places accent upon friendship between girls and their sponsors and a program which stresses social relationships and vocational guidance.
Highlights of the Girl Reserves this year were its vocational hobby program, all girls assembly, city-wide suppers and committee meetings. In their regular club meetings, the girls them.selves participate and outside speakers frequently provide added interest.

As a study of laws and properties of plane and solid figures, numbers and quantities, mathe, matics, besides furnishing the vital foundation for prospective engineers and scientists, proves in, valuable to the tudent of other fields by teach, ing him to reason logically and think accurately.
S~ce the economic welfare of his community is of the greatest importance to business and agri, culture, and is dependent, for the most part, upon science and mathematics, the citizen is in, disputably handicapped without knowledge of these subjects. Appropriate to the industrial age
of today, natural science flourishes in the classes of Lincoln high school in the form of chemistry, physics, botany, biology, physiology and zoology.
The ten,hour science requirement, in addition to giving the student an opportunity to explore the various realm of this wide field in accord, ance with personal inclination and talent, pro, vides a valuable basis for those contemplating additional scientific training in university, and equips those entering other vocations with pos, sible information for future avocations, commun, ity service and good citizenship.
Hardly any industry of importance exists today which does not depend, to a greater or less degree, upon chemistry. Classes give the pupils an idea of the part that chemical science plays in the health, comfort and safety of man, and also its importance in the · industrial and economic projects of everyday life. Not satisfied just to work in the laboratory during class time, many young chemists come in after school , for special work on experiments.
Experiments taught in the physics classes include sound, heat, light and . magnetism and bring new theories forcibly before the students.
Studying not only plants and animals living on the · earth today, the students in the biology classes endeavor to develop a clear picture of prehistoric life by learning the origin, development and structure of animals. Zoology provides a more complete understanding of animal organisms, starting with the one-celled amoeba and evolving to the multicelled human being.
By applying knowledge of the vital functions of human organisms, physiology classes learn the requirements for healthful living through the study of human anatomy.
Botany deals not only with the environment, types, structures and functions of plants, but also with their importance in arts and manufacture and their relationship to human welfare.
The purpose of the secondary mathematics course is to give the average citizen a thorough knowledge of the transfer and use of money, scale drawing, saving, investing, insurance calculations and infor , mal geometry in general.
Each semester the geometry classes make practical use of mathematical facts and theories by determining the height of adjacent objects, such as telepho ne poles and buildings. Using a common yards tick, the students measure the shadows cast by the object and the yardstick and then calculate the height of the object.
For the student wishing to delve _i nto the intricacies of logarithms, learning the construction of hyperbolas and parabolas and studying arithmetic and geometric progressions, the advanced algebra courses point out many short cuts to mathematical calculations.
Furnished primarily for the specialist the classes of solid geometry and senior mathematics provide the elements of trigonometry and calculu necessary to the engineer.

Such things as imploding balls filled with liquid air, testing blood-soaked handkerchiefs for human blood or displaying modern plastics, form topics for chemistry club meetings. These programs ·give chemistry students an idea of the vast fields opened to them by the simple experiments they do in the high school laboratory. The cocoa, made over bunsen burners, served after the meetings along with sandwiches also carries out prac , tical application of chemistry apparatus.

A melodic chorus , a rhythmic design and the clash of cymbals typify the fine arts departments. Students participating in the fine arts activiti es and ventures achieve an interest and sensiti--vity to the cultural developments of modern educa. tion in a democracy.
Self expr ession is gained through group participation i n th e choir, girls and boys glees, the band a nd orc h estr z.. and discussion in music and
art apprec1at1on classes. Appreciation of good design and brilliant color and contrast is achieved through creative work on posters and stage settings which are in turn enjoyed by the entire student body. Murals and portraits develop initiative and ability to record facts accurately .
Cultural development and public service might well be taken as the motto of the fin e arts department.
Ever since the first caveman pounded on a hol, low log to satisfy some primeval urge, some kind of rhythmic expression has been necessary to man. Although many people do not yet consider music an essential part of education, it is neces, sary for true seif expression. In offering chorus and instrumental classes, Lincoln high school realizes this need.
Some music, or music or art appreciation, is required of all students. Over 100 slides of songs, from the Pilgri-ms ' Chorus to Anchor ' s Aweigh, give an adequate library of music for the chorus classes. Besides singing, students get practice in directing and vocalizing. To those who do not have the time nor energy for the ad, vanced music classes, the junior mixed glee, the
other glee clubs and the choir, chorus gives the chance to gratify their inherent singing urge. Students learn to recognize some of the more famous classical compositions in the music ap, preciation classes. Responding to a desire voiced by some of the students, Miss Helen Stowell or, ganized an advanced music appreciation class where great symphonies, operas and the styles of various composers are studied in addition to the shorter compositions. This class is conducted as a seminar.
Preparatory band serves as a proving ground for instrumentalists for the band and orchestra; playing in a group helps one to attain a proficiency that cannot be gained By solitary practice.

The high school orchestra turns forth each year accomplished instrumentalists who become leaders in the music life of Lincoln and often use their high school training as a stepping stone to the Lincoln symphony orchestra. Select groups from the orchestra provide musical atmosphere for all the plays and assist the choir in the production of the opera. The entire organization each year presents formal concerts before the secondary schools and assisted by outside artists performs at several vesper programs.

The most unusual performance the band turned in this season was the drill execu ted with flashlights at the night football game. As the flood lights were turned out, only the perfect star formed by the lights of the band members illuminated the oval. Although this was the first year they had attempted any intricate drill work, they turned in skillful performances at all games.
In addition to furnishing enthusiasm for all athletic contests, the band demonstrated its versatility in its more classical programs at the midyear concert and its vespers. The only drawback
has been the quarter of a century old rags and tatters the members are required to wear as uniforms. In the past few years the band, capably aided by the other musical organizations, has accumulated a substantial fund through the mid, year concert and other projects such as Feather Day. If the student body continues the splendid cooperation shown in the past, the appearance of Lincoln high 's band will soon equal its distinguished musical standards
Responsible for welding this gro up of capable musicians into a.n effective unit is their director, Bernard F Nevin.

Sixty-one boys made up the boys glee club, larger this year than ever before. Voices rang out with enthusiasm . as they opened the annual Joy Night performance; later, giving evidence of their versatility, they prepared an impressive program for the commencement exercises.
Their work gave pleasure to themselves as well as to those who heard it; the enjoyment gained from singing in such a group · more than repays them for the hours spent in rehears al. The boys g lee club is further proof of Mr. Rangeler's rema r kab le ability as a director.
The remarkable precis:on which characterizes the singing of the girls glee club makes this one of the outstanding musical groups in the sta t e. Under Miss Helen Stowell 's direction these eighty junior girls receive fundamental voice training which equips them for the more advanced choral work that comes in their senior year.
Each year they perform before the stu den t body in the annual Christmas assembly and in their act which is always the climax of J oy Night. T hey are in constant demand for public appearances t hroughout the city since the gro u p is as pleasing to the eye as to the ear.

The goal of all voice students in Lincoln high is the a capella choir. Each of this select group of one hundred seniors not only receives sound training in technique but, in addition, experiences the thrill of fitting himself into the pattern created by the whole choir.
At Christmas time the entire student body has the opportunity to hear the choir in the traditional assembly, an hour of spiritual music in the auditorium lighted only by the thirty-three
candles. The choir made other public appearances, before the secondary schools, at the high school vespers, the Nebraska scholastic press association conference, an American association of university women meeting and business men's clubs. Their Christmas program presented for the Kiwanis club was recorded and later rebroadcast. Their presentation of Gilbert and Sullivan's comic opera, The Mi~ado, was the culmina, tion of a year of work and fun

'The Mi~ado, whose gay chatter and bright melo, dies delighted a •full house for two evenings, climaxed an unusually successful theatrical season on the Lincoln high stage. The colorful costumes and the brilliant scenery created the setting for Gilbert and Sullivan ' s infectious gaiety.
A satire on English customs, 'The Mi~ado revolves about the Lord High Executioner of Titipu, a typical "stuffed shirt". By the end of the production, however, the Mi~ado, Nanki-Poo, the Mikado's son, and Yum-Yum, ward of the executioner, have successfully deflated his ego, and he is led into lifelong slavery by Katish a, the Japanese edition of Sadie Hawkins.
Mr. Rangeler produced a splendid interpretation of the opera, aided by an able chorus and talented group of principals.

The most spectacular achievement of the Orpheons was the promotion of Feather Day in connection with the mid-year concert band bene, fit. Some two thousand students contributed nickels and dimes to the band uniform fund and received as recognition red feathers with black L's made by several members of the club With the receipts from this sale plus the mid,year concert profits, the dream of new band uniforms became a reality. Another school undertaking span-
sored by the Orpheons is the opera . Advertising and ticket sales are under their supervision and in addition most of the cast is recruited from their members.
Members chosen from the junior and the senior classes by try-out win a chance to display their ability to a critical but appreciative audience.
Miss Helen Stowell and Bernard Nevin are the sponsors of the club.

Although the Clef ciub hcts no definite annual public appearance scheduled as the dramatic clubs do, it has compiled the unique record of participating in Joy Night every year since the club was organized. Developed from a program staged at a meeting, the act this year was based on Pinocchio.
Since sophomores are not eligible for Orpheons, the junior-senior musical society, the Clef club was organized in 19 3 3 to give underclassmen the opportunity which can mean so much to a young musician, that of performing with his fellows.
Often the inchoate artist may become so interested in one field of art that he never bothers to investigate another. The art club, by presenting speakers from many different phases of this subject, serves · as an awakener to its potential fields from fashion illustration to lithographing.
An unusual opportunity to preview the Nebraska art association exhibition was offered this year when Mr. Dwight Kirsch showed photographs of the notable pictures in the exhibit.
Although the art club is primarily· for the art students of Lincoln high, the two Birger Sandzen lithographs it presented to the school this year are for the delectation of the whole school.

Lincoln high students in the cafeteria riow have aesthetic as well as material surroundings at lunch time. The recently completed murals of student activities gracing the cafeteria wall provide the perfect complement to the gleaming counter of food.
Painted by Chester Porter, Jean Smith and Shirley Spaulding under the direction of Miss Helen Wilson they are done on pressed wood and are removable. This feature will give art classes in the future a chance to do other paintings, provided these are received favorably by the students, and get the experience the present mural class has received.
Sketches were submitted by students and the subject of student activities was decided on by the class. The work took all semester.
Although this was the most important work of the art classes this year, the stage drops for Joy Night and 'The Mi~ado gave another chance for practical application of their talent.
Landscaping, tapestries, and water color work were emphasized in the advanced classes; this work is brought before the students by the drawings displayed in the art bulletin board.
Che ter Porter finds the floor the be t place to work on the murals.Because of a common aim, to fit the students for a definite vocational field, these three phases of education- industrial arts, commercial arts and home economics- have been grouped to , gether.
Future business men and women get their start in such courses as business law, bookkeeping, typewriting and banking.
Prospective nurses , interior decorators or house wi ves a r e trained in one of the divisions, h o m e eco n o m ics
For those boys who wish to help run the · wheels of industry itself, the trades preparatory courses provide the necessary background . Mechanics, printers, electricians and carpenters emerge, well equipped, from the industrial arts courses.
While the theory is vocational, in practice these departments offer invaluable experience to all students, many of whom may never · enter any of the aforement ioned fields, yet all of whom find the training useful.
Setting as its goal the art of right living, the home economics department strives, through various courses- foods, clothing, family life, health, hygiene and home decoration-to make these subjects function in the daily life of its students in such a way that they can better solve their individual problems
The purposes of this training are twofold-to meet the present needs of the students and to give them a foundation for further special training in some vocation- home making, die, tetics, nursing, interior decorat ion, institutional management and home demonstration work. Early training for those interested in becoming laboratory technicians, buyers for department stores and field representatives for companies dealing in household products may also be gamed from these courses.
The present needs are met by helping pupils to use their information now- choosing becom, mg styles and colors, preparing wholesome foods, developing good health habits and acquiring the ability to live happily with others, in school and out.
And another batch of biscuits starts its rise to golden glory. "Quick!-more something." "I can see this one in rough linen " 1"How does it fit?" Three cooking students wonder what they have concocted.
Glimpses into the duties of the home and its possibilities as fields for vocations include the cafeteria which not only provides excellent food and pleasant surroundings for pupils' lunch hour but offers opportunities for practical training to students in that department. As a result of their training in c ulinary and other household arts and instruction in first aid given in the hygiene classes, pupils sometimes receive •part time jobs to help them carry the financial burden of education.
The home economics ch,1b, too, is of great value to students in that it gives them a chance to discuss together and under expert supervision their individual problems in clothing, meal planning and preparation, hair styling, make-up and persona.I health. This year the group sponsored and financed - a style show to which all girls were invited.

The commercial department offers, as its name suggests, a preparatory course in the field of business, its value lying in the fact that all instruction trains pupils toward securing positions. By taking advantage of their training in typewriting, shorthand, bookkeeping and salesmanship, as well as in business law and comme r cial geography, students can, upon recommendation of their instructor, take advantage of the distributive · education program and obtain part time employment. Only a few progressive schools throughout the United States recognize this innovation in education; in Lincoln high, it is proving an extremely successful enterprise, approximately a score of students in the commercial department now taking part in this course. Many others step directly from the department into positions as secretaries, salesmen or clerks.
The sale of the year book and of the advertising for it are notable activities of the commercial department handled almost completely by the salesmanship classes. Another phase of the course is the office training program where senior girls receive instruction in filing, taking dictation and learning to operate comptometers and other intricate machines.
In addition to the regular department curriculum, a new organization, the business girls club, has been formed, composed entirely of girls interested in securing business positions. Various guest speakers give direct information not included in everyday classes, such as desirable character traits and the qualities expected of a secretary by her employer.
In view of all these opportunities, graduates of the commercial department may be expected to enter the business world well prepared to meet any emergencies which may face them.
To train students not to be mere cogs in industry's machine, but to consider themselves as prospective contracters, printers, skilled mechanics and electricians, is the aim of the industrial arts department. Most of them will work with their hands; whether they are to be skilled or unskilled is the question. Many students, to be sure, take some of these courses never contemplating wo:k o f this type but merely wishing to gain a basic knowledge o f these subj ects.
Practical application of education in this department means in general that boys are given actual work and assi g n ed t o definite jobs which will give them valu, _ able exper ience For i nstance, members of the carpentry classes built t h e scout cabin in Camp Minis-Kuya an<l t he electrici t y classes wired it. Later the carpentry shop boys remo d eled the school's athletic supply room.
In the electricity shop much interest centers around th e amateur radio station the call letters of which are W9LRZ. Projects of the printing classes are brought before the student body in the form of call slips, pro, grams, Irving junior high school's newspaper and program cards. The same idea permeates the auto-mechanics classes where actual experience in tuning up cars is - considered of the utmost importance and one boy is even constructing an automobile.
Junior and seniors in the industrial arts cl asses may now participate in the distributive education program. These pupils spend the forenoon in school and are employed down town for the rest of the day.

Continuing a long brilliant line of athletic seasons, the year 1939-40 will go down in Lincoln high school's sporting history as one of the brightest in many years. Night football made its initial appearance in the fall season and was immediately a striking success when added to the school's rapidly advancing athletic program. Football under the lights is, however, only a small part of a broad scheme, intended to de, velop the health and physical qualities of the body as well as the mind of every student enrolled in the school.
In order to accomplish this aim, athletic contests of all types are staged; not only in meets with other schools, but also during class periods where every student has a chance to learn to play something he enjoys. Baseball develops quick thought and coordination; football and
basketball games give strength and stamina; archery, tennis and golf matches, or track and field meets, offer opportunities for varied tal , ents. Swimming instruction enables everyon e in all the gymnasium classes to learn to swim or perfect c:-trokes, while handball develops precision and agility.
Posture defects are corrected through a rigor, ous regime of exercises in the special posture class Certain periods are reserved for students who, recovering from an injury or illness, need extra rest and relaxation during school hours.
For tho e most athletically inclined, inter, school competition is offered. Letters and cer, tificates are awarded to some who excel in their own fields . However, the most important re, sults go to all - acquiring the habits of good sportsmanship and clean, healthful living.
Offering a wide variety of activities, the physi, cal education department of Lincoln high school strives to improYe the physical well being of each pupil that registers in a gymnasium class. This in, cludes, at one time or another, every student en, rolled in the school.
Health ratings are determined by physical exam- jnations giv en at the beginning of each semester. Most do regular gymnasium work-swimming, playing basketball, baseball, volley ball or ring ten- nis; practicing drill and mat work. Others, less robust, take lighter exercises in a modified gym, nasium class.
At th e same time that examinations are made, silouetog raphs are taken of posture. In consulta, tion w ith th e instructor, each pupil who has faulty posture is given a special group of exercises to do, and is registered in one of the new posture classes, a r ecent innovation at Lincoln high school, where he tries to correct any physical defects. Siloueto, g raphs are again taken at the close of the course so that each person may see his own improvement.
For those who have been ill or are unable to take regular gymnasium work, rest classes afford relaxa, tion for one period a day. Their improvement is shown when their weekly weighings and advance, ments are recorded.
Thus, in all these ways, the physical education department is contributing to the growth, mentally and physically, of every student.

A bout the time that the wind began to blow the leaves off the trees last fall, some thirty -one girls were out on the east field, kicking and passing in the annual speedball tournament.
T his year, junior and senior teams were combined in a successful effort to down the sophomores. T hey first defeated them 10-7, then by a count of 5-2. Betty Nye and Emma Schneider were co-captains of the junior-senior team, and Harriet Turner piloted the sophomores.

To earn a letter in archery, as in other girls sports, the aspirant must place among the top three in a tournament two different times.
With speedy forehand and backhand drives and tricky serves, many girls sought a top place in last fall's tennis tournament.
Virginia Null, sophomore, battled hard to steal the title from Merriam Mann, senior, but Merriam, undaunted, was victorious for the third consecutive season. Jean Whedon and Betty Nye, juniors, were defeated in the semifinals.
Undaunted by the cold wind, Lincoln high's feminine golf lovers braved the weather to play off the semi-annual tournament. Jean Hazen, senior, emerged the victor, closely followed by Merriam Mann, senior, and JoAnn Kinsey and Betty Nye, juniors.

Helen Greusel, sophomore, grabbed off three firsts for 15 points and individual scoring hon, ors. Trailin g closely were Marilyn Lawson, Helen Becker and Ardyce Kargo.
Sophomores who participated were Mary M argare t Bumst ead, Alice Burnett, M a rgar e t Capron, Patricia Curry, Betty Coulter, Lucille Friend, Hel en Greusel, Ardyc e Kargo and Marian MacDonald.
The senior team included Norma Cumm ins, Elizabeth Daniels, Marilyn Lawson and Shirl ey Spaulding.
Helen Becker, Rose Marie Franklin , Donna Hall, Patricia Putney, B~tty Schwartz and Jean Whe don came out for the juniors.
The junior colors were floating high after a blistering playoff of the double round robin basketball tournament. Showing no respect for their elders they tumbled the seniors by the score of 15-12.
Basketball took the girls gymnasium by storm this season with some sixty girls competing for team positions. Such interest was aroused that four teams were chosen so more girls could have a chance to participate.
Play was hotly contested with the juniors, led by Betty Nye, proving too tough for the seniors, captained by Jane Johnson, in the playoff for the title while the lOA 's under Ardyce Kargo tripped the lOB ' s, captained by Pauline Harris, 20-14, to gain third place.

Candy, apples, popcorn, peanuts and pop eagerly consumed by hungry spectators attending Lincoln high sporting events are all sold under the auspices of G. A. A. Proceeds are used to buy new gymnasium equipment, pay for the emblems and letters presented to girls who earn them and take care of all other G. A. A. expenses.
Several of the young saleswomen earned l~tters or emblems for their work as confection venders.
Concession managers for the past season were Norma Richards, Fern Freeman and Doris Scott.
After-school tap instruction does not quite qualify one to be a dancing partner of Fred Astaire but nevertheless many good tappers are turned out each season under the expert guidance of Miss Grace Ann Morgan. These girls are taught the fundamental dance steps and before the term is over they are creating new routines. To earn an emblem or letter in tap dancing, each girl must compose an original dance and present it at a G. A. A. meeting.
Expression and interpretation of ideas and emotions through grace and rhythm of movement is taught in the modern dancing classes, a relatively new course in the girls' after-school sports program. Original formations are created by the girls themselves.

LMembership in the L Club is recognition given to the cream of the athletic crop. Any boy who wins a major award is automatically ad, mitted •to its select circle.
The club function which draws the most notice from the student body is their annual Joy Night act which always can be counted on for a good guffaw. This year's act was no except io n, with eight handsome specimens giving their all i n a tantalizing tango and receiving unofficial ac, claim as the smoothest hoofers in Lincoln high.
To provide social relationships, the club officiates at a party each year. The coaches who sponsor the organization also strive to keep the athletes in the upper brackets scholastically and maintain a careful account of their work in the class room as well as in the oval.
M embership in the national athl~tic honor society rewards those first team lettermen who have been above average scholastically for three consecutive semesters.
Boasting a well balanced squad f ea tu ring two returning lettermen Carlyle Hummel and Dick Dubuque, the Links net men made a clean sweep of their early season's games.
Seward was the first victim of the Red and Black's smooth stroking team, losing in straight sets on their own courts, April 24.
In a return engagement the Links netters again whitewashed Seward 6-0 with the visitors failing to win a set.
Stretching their winning streak with a double victory, the Lincoln A and B tennis squads stroked to 6-0 and 4-2 victories over Beatrice and Plattsmouth respectively.
As the Links went to press, the capitol city team had gained a 3, 3 tie with a hard shooting Tech squad when the doubles team of Hummel and Dubuque scored an upset victory over Miller and Moats of Tech.

Starting with an all veteran first squad, Coach Harry Kuklin was able to provide Lincoln with one of its most consistent golf teams in recent years.
The Linksmen opened their season by trouncing Seward on the latter's fairways in a match conceded at the thirteenth hole and crushed Seward's linksmen 12-0 in a return match as Bernie Mortenson fired a 79.
In the first York invitational golf to urn a, ment held, the Links were victorious by a four, stroke margin over Aurora. Yark high offered stiffer competition in a dual meet but succumbed 9½-2½. Don Tucker was medalist with an 82.
Continuing their hard driv'ng tactics, Lin, coln 's future Johnny Goodmans scored a decisive victory over the Omaha Tech golfers by an 11-1 count. Paul Hyland and Bernie Mortenson fired 83 's to tie for low scoring honors.

Omaha Tech dunked the Red and Black mermen 41-25 in the season's opener in the gate city tank.
Traveling to Beatrice February 17, the Links sank their perennial rival 37-29.
The squad dipped the Lincoln Y. M. C. A. February 22, racking up 37 points to their opponents' 29. Bill Snyder unofficially broke the 220 free style record while Dick Marshall tied the state backstroke mark.
Fremont next bowed before the Red and Black paddlers February 2 7 as a victory by the relay team gave the Links a one-point margin.
In the return engagement with Omaha Tech the Links managed to earn a 3 3, 3 3 draw. Again Snyder and Marshall unofficially broke the existing state records in the backstroke and 100,
yard free style.
March 8 saw the return engagement with the Beatrice paddlers who were defeated 3 5, 31 in the Red and Black's pool.
The following day saw the Lincoln Y. M. C. A. again failing in their attempt as Lincoln took a close 3 5 -31 decision. Dick McMahon and Dick Marshall succeeded in setting new pool records in their pet events.
Another victory was chalked up by Kuklin 's boys March 11 as Fremont bowed 29-27 in their own pool.
Entering the state tournament March 16 as the underdogs, the Red and Black mermen came into their own with a hard earned victory over their arch rival, Tech, with a total of 68 points. Tech finished a close second with 5 5 while Fre, mont collected 6 and Fairbury, 1. Lincoln's Bill Snyder broke the state record in the 100-yard free style with a 5 6. 5 performance, while Dick Marshall cracked the existing state mark in the backstroke, covering the distance in 1 : 06.8.
Dick Marshall sets off to break another back, stroke record. John Safford goes off the deep end for Lincoln at the state meet.Boasting one of the best pitching staffs in the state, Coach Mueller's Red and Black nine offered a serious obstacle to all opponents.
Opening day saw a high powered Omaha South nine nip the Links 2-1 in the last innings after trailing throughout the game. "Lefty" Glass allowed onlv three scratch hits but numerous errors contributed to his downfall.
Red and Black hitters next enjoyed a field day as Cathedral high school was massacred 27-0 in five innings. Ray Wilkinson, proving ex, tremely stingy, refused to allow a hit or run in the abbreviated contest.
. Teachers high school offered hardly more competition as they failed to score, going down 16-0. The game proved costly, however, as Floyd Wilkinson, lanky hurler, was lost for the season with a knee injury.
Mueller's diamond crew next traveled to Omaha April 20, where Creighton Prep's blue, jays rapped out an 8-2 victory. Glass again
failed to get any support and seven errors wer~ registered against the Red and Black.
In a free scoring slugfest, April 24, that went eleven innings, the Links managed to sal, vage a 14-10 decision over Seward high on the Seward diamond.
Battering a hapless Seward pitcher for twelve hits in a return game, the Red and Black bombers' row pushed across twelve tallies in the first three innings to emerge victorious by a 13, 1 count.
With Bob Gropp holding Utica's nine to four hits and also banging out two hits in three attempts, to lead the hitters, Mueller's outfit turned back the invaders 6- 3 on 1'fony field.
May 3 witnessed "Lefty" Glass and com, pany shellacking Plattsmouth 7-2 as two Links errors let in the visitors' runs.
Rallying late in the game failed to pull th e Red and Black out of the hole into which they had put themselves by means of their six bobbles, and Omaha Tech annexed a 6-5 victory.
Put it here , Ray!!!

With only the field performers participating in the Kearney invitati onal, the Lincoln squad rolled up 30 points to finish second only to North Platte.
H eaving the platter 174 feet 2 inches Debus broke his own national intersch olastic record in the discus event as his te~mmates rolled up 79 points, sweeping the York invitatio nal for the third straight year. Debus' 18 points were of no avail at the Omaha University invitational meet as the Red and Black dropped to second place.

Debus whirled the discus 163 feet 2 inches for one new state mark , then soared over the bar in the pole _ vault at 12 feet 8 inches, eclipsing the old mark by 2 inches. His other gold medal efforts were in the javelin and the shot put. Wilbur Lebsack took another state gold award in the broad jump. Other
Red and Black points were gained by A bbott with a tie for second in the high jump, Mur r ay with third in the broad jump, Bob Linders' third and fourth place tie in the pole vault and a fourth p lace by the 880 relay team of Murray, Frantz, L ebsack and W eygint.

Sons of the Blac~ and Red holds the attention of all but a f w of the Peppers.
After a slow start which saw Coach Ralph Beechner's Red and Blc1:ck quintet drop games to Grand Island, Omaha South, Hastings, Omaha Tech and Sioux City Central, v.,1inning only from Omaha Central, the Lincoln cagers hit the comeback trail to end a mediocre season as finalists in the state basketball tournament.
Sioux City East was measured 40- 37 in a fast game. Omaha Central was again defeated 3 5 -2 5. Crete was the next victim, falling by c1. one-poin t margin, 3 6, 3 5. The L inks dipped their colors to South 's P acke rs by a 34-23 margin.
At Beatrice February 9, the Red and Black • eked out a 32 - 31 decision, returning home the following evening to massacre York 54 -29.
The annual tussle with Jackwn at the coliseum found the Links unable to cope with Cy Yordy 's cagers, falling 31-2 5. Journeying to Kearney on February 2 3 the Beechner boys trounced the Antelopes 45, 18. Falls City's Tigers
ambled on to a 42-29 triumph in the last game of the Red and Black's regular season.
Lincoln drew Teachers high in the first game of the regional tournament and dished out a 40 - 12 licking, then nipped Crete's Cardinals 22-20. In the finals Jackson still held too many tricks, winning -31-18 .
Drawing Schuyler in the first round of the state tourney the Red and Black took a fast 3 5-28 decision. Only a last half rally gave the Links the lead over McCook, 31-29. Meeting Grand Island in tl1e semi-finals the baskete-ers made up for an early season defeat by dishing out a 28-18 upset.
Entering the finals on the short end of the money against mighty Creighton Prep's Bluejays, the Links, led by injured Floyd Wilkinson and Captain Harvey Lauer, battled heroically to leave the floor at the half with the scoreboard reading 7-7. In the final period Prep turned on the steam, however, to win the championship 31-16.

Compiling one of the most decisive records of recent reserve teams, the Links reserves for the third straight season were undefeated and untied, as well as unscored upon this year.
