Lincoln High School 1942 Yearbook

Published by the Students of Lincoln High School, Lincoln, Nebraska.

Volume Twenty-five.

Howdy, stranger, didn't think I'd seen you around before, so thought I'd give you a few pointers on what's comin'. You see, it's part of a trail, a lot of it may seem familiar but I bet there's plenty you've never seen before. That's why we got this book out. So everyone can see what happened this year and even if you almost forget, a long time from now when you've seen a lot more trail than we've even thought of now, you just take a peek and there you are. It's a road with more to it than most people imagine and the funny thing about it is that it changes for each traveler. Still there're some trails that are mostly the same and they're the ones we've got down here. Here and there you may recognize a spot, at least that's what we're hopin' for.

'Nother thing you've got to remember is that you can't just start out, there're some things you've got to have to make the trip without casualties. One is a good leader that won't let you get stuck in the mud and go off and leave you there. Good equipment is another thing that's important and we tried to show some of the equipment you ' ve needed to climb the path. When a friend gives you a lift, why most likely you don't think anything of it but that's another reason you get to the top and it's important, too. So we've got lots of your friends in here and if you don't tread the same path they do in the next few years, you'll still have something to remind you of 'em .

Yes, that's what this book's for. That and one other thing. Last and maybe the most important reason today is that here's a picture of the lives of our future men and women. What they did and how they did it. It's got some of the reasons why America can ' t and won ' t be beat in the years to come. You're that reason, brother. So co :ne on in and have a look at yourself.

Dedicat _ ion

To all Lincoln high's former students and graduates now in the armed forces this book is dedicated . We do this in the hope that they will be reminded of their days as members of this small community. Many of us who are still here will soon join them in the army, navy, marines, and coast guard.

They are scattered not only in all branches of the service but from Ireland to Australia. Wherever there _ is a United Nations front, Lincoln high boys are taking their places in the firing lines. Lincoln high is justly proud of its contributions to the nation's far-flung fighting forces against totalitarianism. But men in the service are not its only contributions to the war effort.

Lincoln high has changed. Students still go to class, take tests, have a few vacations. But they also make model airplanes for the navy, do some of their work outside of school while their teachers help in sugar rationing. They take physics and chemistry to prepare for the service. They don't linger quite so much in the halls, but hurry into class so that they can finish their lessons and go to first aid class or the gymnasium after school. Although no one looks gloomy, everyone is a little bit more serious about learning all he can. There is a sign in every room, "Work Discipline Faith", a reminder of our motto in the crisis.

We wish to tell the men in the service that as our lives change a little because of the war effort, we think of them with their plans completely disrupted. And we wish them good luck.

Progress In

It ' s a big change from the recently obliterated McKinley school to the four story building which houses twenty-five hundred students. Inside the building itself there have been many changes during the years since it was built. The sound system, installed last year, has served the twofold purpose of getting announcements to everyone in the school, wherever he might be, and of providing special programs to individual classes. It has also given all students a chance to hear interesting speakers who cannot speak to more than one assembly group.

New this year is the dark room, set up in the basement by the camera club. It is complete for development and printing of pictures and may be used by any member of the club.

During the winter months it was almost impossible to go outside at noon. To solve this

difficulty and prevent the milling around in the halls which seemed to be the ony amusement of students who had already eaten lunch, the student council established games in the gymnasium to run throughout lunch periods. A large variety of games provides the outlet for much pent up steam before it is necessary to return to classes.

As part of the new system of education, a visual education room has shown many films for different classes, and is much in request by d~1bs as well. Actually showing students the facts has often proved more effective than mere reading as far as memory and comprehension are concerned.

Open house has been one of the times at which new methods and equipment have been demonstrated, for improvement is constantly affecting most methods and equipment.

School Coordinators

The school of today is far removed from the little red school house that graced the community several decades ago. Today, just as in any thriving business, the school has its problems to face, some educational and some economic. .And someone has to be responsible for not merely one school, but for all the pub- lic schools in the community. The average person rarely comes in contact with this group, but the board of education must be a leader in educational policies and see that school funds are equitably directed.

Captains of this great machine that guides the welfare of thousands of Lincoln school children are Millard C. Lefler, superintendent, and 0 H. Bimson, assistant superintendent. They must see that the most good is done with ava ild)le funds.

Within the last year, the board has moved from its old quarters to its new building at Twenty-second and Randolph. Now Lincoln h igh and the board are neighbors, and students can actua}ly see the workings of the group that controls the school system. Just as each department is an integrated part of the school, so is each school an integrated part of the school system. Today the latter is finding new methods and equipment and preparing the school system for war Vocational training in home work, farm work and training for defense work form part of the school system's program to supply skilled workers in an .America that needs them badly. Thus it is continuing to set high standards in the Lincoln -::; chool system.

Our School's ·war Effort

Many defense projects are g oing on at the present time in Lincoln high, m ost of which are concerned with the students . They have done much to help in an all-out war effort. Students participated in tin-foil and victory book campaigns for the men in the armed forces. They _ have built model airplanes for the navy and in outside-of-school activities have learned first aid and conserved in various ways to preserve materials.

Perhaps one of the least known activities in the defense set-up at Lincoln high is the work of the men in the basement. Men who are eligible apply for the work and are on a probationary period of six weeks Both electrical and airplane welding is stressed. If they show an aptitude for the work they continue in it. If not , they are placed in some other position that they are fit for They become adept in skills needed in ship yards, navy yards, defense industries , and airplane factories. They also alleviate the scarcity of man power in

local industries. The national government bears the expense of the project and · ·t is under the supervision of the federal office of education .

In other Lincoln public schools defense work is also a part of school life. Sugar rationing has been effected through the elementary schools ' help in registration and many schools have been hosts to courses in trades training . Because of an expected farm labor shortage a program has been set up that has given Lincoln boys who are interested , definite aid in orientation and training for farm work Classes were also offered in first · aid and fire combating.

It is gratifying to know that the pupils of Lincoln high and the entire school system are aiding materially in an all-out war effort. Where materials are needed students are conserving , and when workers are needed the school system is doing its part to furnish skilled workers for skilled occupations.

H. C. Mardis

Head Trail Blazer

Blazing the trail for some 2,600 students and teachers, Harold C. Mardis has guided the upper and lower classmen along rough and rocky paths. Through all this he has moved quietly and efficiently

Not one to be content with halfway measures, Mr. Mardis has led the way in preparing for an all-out war effort in the school system. Under his direction, the school's air raid alarm program and the building of model airplanes were instigated. Also victory book drives were set up which have given the pupils a chance to help during these difficult days. The school has become a center of the defense program with the role it had in rationing sugar. The efficiency with which this work is handled is due in no small way to Mr. Mardis' direction. He has awakened the school to the seriousness of the times and charted a course to follow for the achievement of the best possible results.

Nor are school duties his only responsibil-

ities, for he is called on to act in many city affairs. National and state educational groups find his aid ready and efficient when it is needed When he hears a particularly interesting speaker or program he immediately attempts to secure it for a student assembly at school. Although he is constantly on the go, he can still remember thousands of students' names and greets them on his rounds about the building. He participates in the teachers' meetings that are held and he also lends aid to the student governmental agencies when called upon to do so.

Although occupied with many weighty prob- lems, he has still found time to act as a skilled adviser to the pupils and has had a part with student activities such as Joy Night, plays, and sports events. Thus, not only as an executive, but also as a fellow worker, he has been a constant force in molding the policies of Lincoln high.

The 1942 Links gives a resume of a busy school year. Our thinking has been interrupted again and again by the incidents of a world at war. It is important that we have made this school year count in every way. We must continue to prepare and equip ourselves not only mentally, but physically and spiritually as well. To the seniors leaving us this year, I would wish God-speed

Though the members of the class of 1942 are starting on a way beset by difficulties and dangers, yet may they find a rainbow at the end of the trail.

Mora le Builders

No one p lays a more important role in the American way of life than teachers. The teachers of Lincoln high come from the length and breadth of America, bringing with them many different and varied interpretations, molding together a framework of teaching

Besides their routine duties, teachers take part in countless outside activities. They serve as club and class sponsors, on guidance committees, governmental agencies, teachers polit ical , civ ic , religious, organizations. The old proverb m i ght be revised to read: "Pupils work from sun to sun , but teachers ' work is never done ." Long hours are spent in keeping abreast of current affairs and the changing of times to meet the latest school needs.

Almost every week they hold forums to discuss new and varied methods of teaching. They d iscuss the latest defense measures that can be adopted at Lincoln high. Within the s c h oo l its elf the teachers have co-operated in sett i ng up their own library of contemporary li terature Membership is voluntary and those

belonging contribute an equal amount to purchase the latest and best books.

In a world at war, teachers are a major factor in building up morale of the nation . They encourage their students to study and appreciate the American heritage History teachers, by pointing out the struggles and victories of this nation in the past, help to show what we are fighting for. Science and mechanical trade teachers prepare students for vital war work and commercial teachers aid in instructing for war-time businesses English and language teachers aid by looking forward to a post-war world peace Also , in keeping with the times, the faculty has mastered first aid for such emergencies as may come.

During this critical time in our history, teachers' work is two-fold For the instructor not only gives a basic, general knowledge to be used all through life, but also the •vital details needed at the present time . Teachers form the basis for education in a democracy, educating students who will make the history of tomorrow.

Miss Davis Retires

" The decision of Miss Davis to give up her career of teaching will leave the social science department minus one of the parts of its mechanism which has helped make that group one happy family ", said Mrs. Grace G . Hyatt , head of the social science department , when Miss Davis ' resignation was announced . "She is a grand friend She can always find time in the hurry of school life to do the pleasant thing."

Student Lawmakers

Subject to call at all times of the day, the twenty members of the student council help to govern the entire student body. Sophomores, juniors, and seniors all have representation on the council and through the petition system the student body has complete responsibility for the choice of students they make members on the council. Each member serves on a specific committee which keeps informed on school needs. These committees take charge of extra-curricular activities, the club schedule, clean-up activities, safety campaigns, and provide for hall guards and doormen

Every Wednesday at 2:30 the council meets to discuss and act on student affairs. One of the most important of its functions is the production of Joy Night. The council is in complete charge of ·this spring event. With faculty

assistance it judges contestants, attends rehearsals, and carries on an extensive advertising campaign. Before any work is started a theme is developed. The theme this year was a night in a U. S. 0. recreational center of an army camp. Result of all this labor is not only an entertaining production but also is a sovrce of finance for the student fund. Several times during the year, the council sponsors Friday matinee parties in the gymnasium .R.t the first of every semester, a sophomore pa::ty introduces the newcomers to each other.

The student council is constantly aiding in reforms that will benefit the entire school. It plays an important role in school _life. During school hours and long afterwards, it W'.)rks to promote a more efficient, better student government.

They Represent Us

One of the leading student governing agencies of the school is the home room representatives In the fall each home room nominates and elects a member to this important group Meeting regularly, it acts as a voice for the entire school , presenting views and ideas of the student body

Being the largest student governing body at Lincoln high , the group is divided into numerous committees to facilitate better organization and planning. .Among these are the stair well guards, the pennant committee, and the club service committee . Others are the efficiency , scrap book, and bulletin board committees They promote the sale of activity tickets and collect class dues

I

During the second semester , the representatives presented as an assembly a forum composed of high school students from Northeast and Beatrice . .At this assembly school problems were discussed and the various participants described the methods their schools used to solve these problems.

In the spring the home room representatives marshall the school into groups to eradicate the ever -present dandelions and beautify the campus in general. In off-assembly and home room periods many students may be seen spading weeds and gathering up waste paper .

Whenever visitors come to the school , it is the duty of the representatives to guide them about the building . The alternates distribute the .Advocate every Wednesday and take the place of the representative if he is absent.

•Trai I Keepers

Playing a vital role in the life of the school building are the many people who see to it that each new day finds a clean building at the right temperature greeting students and teachers. The custodians maintain an everready, watchful eye on the hundreds of school properties.

When students and teachers leave the building after a long day's work, the custodians begin their duties of "blitzing" the dirt. Under the supervision of Edwin Geistlinger they clean each room so that it will be ready for tomorrow's job. Silently and unseen they prepare for a forthcoming day of school work . Each new week finds the building glistening from ·room to room with freshly polished floors and blackboards ready for another five days of continuous work. Rlso they keep all sidewalks to the building open when snowstorms threaten to close them. In the spring they work patiently on the lawn to keep it green and watered. So the job of custodian is a year-round one.

At assemblies and plays they operate the technical lighting system in the auditorium. The custodians are on call at all times to repair minor difficuties that occur throughout the building during a school day. All around the clock they labor to keep an efficient-running school for its occupants.

Another coming into his own is Robert Landegren, the keeper of the book room. He keeps a steady flow of the right books traveling to the various rooms in the school, handles the lost and found, receives fines

Although their work differs markedly, all these guides have one thing in common: aiding and making school life easier and more enjoyable for all who cross their paths.

It's An Asset

Ability to use good English is essential in every line of work Through its various classes , formal and informal, with subjects from creative writing to interpretation of news in periodicals, the English department develops this ability and widens the student's outlook In time of war this department ' s work is doubly important.

Americans become familiar with the ideals and customs of our trans-Atlantic ally. In English literature classes by reading the works of British authors in the early days of the Empire students find it easier, to understand her actions today.

In creative writing classes budding authors flower and fade as they write and criticize their own work . The ones interested in verse study meter and form.

The art of argumentation and debate is the subject of other English classes. Advanced students enter competition with other schools. Questions of public interest are made the subject of series of debates for which students amass a great deal of information.

In times when right of free speech is threatened or curtailed in other countries we find ourselves very grateful for it and for all the classes that help young men and women to understand the best in our literary heritage, to think clearly on diverse subjects, and to discuss matters with their fellows without surveillance.

What Other People s ·peak

Our world today has grown so small that the peoples o f foreign nations seem closer than ever before. Current events tell us that there must be w idespread understanding of all the world to br ing about the assurance of peace. To try to re a ch this goal, in our language department the character istics and the history of our world neighbors are combined with the study o f vocabulary and grammar.

As Latin is the root of several modern languages, the beginner usua ll y ventures into it first. Following Publius in his da ily life, a Latin student often sees himself. More advanced students take up Caesar and his "Gallic Wars. " Students who study Cicero ' s passionate speeches note that after many years we are still wrestling w ith the same problems.

We hear a great deal in these times about the " good neighbor policy ." To the south of us is that important sect ion of the world where Spanish is spoken . For this reason , Spanish is increasingly valuable and students , from the beg inning , are taught to speak it. Short stories are read and later more advanced Spanish literature .

Lively and bright is the French language studied by many students. In addition to conversation tra ining and presentation of short plays, famous stories and accounts of French history are read Correspondence with French boys and girls is an important and interesting phase of the work

Since German terms are often seen in the news, German students have listed and translated these terms to make an interesting bit o f research. In contrast to the harsh war t e rms, fables and fairy tales are translated by t he beginners The more advanced are reading exciting detective stor i es.

Interpreting Today's World

Daily, pages in history are being written in bold words that the world will never forget. The best history lessons of today are made up of discussions about news heard over the air or read in the newspapers. To follow the reports, students must have a knowledge of locations and histories of the powers of the world.

Mankind has followed the same cycle of war and peace for as long as history has been recorded. .After paralleling lives of great conquerors and the conquered, the lives of nations themselves, and the war tactics and history of early Greeks and Romans with incidents of the present, world conflict, students can grasp a broader view of the war. They discover that the lives, thoughts, and reactions of these people were not so different from their own.

Beginning with the first vague clues of written records, Greek and Roman history traces the lives of our ancient ancestors up to the Roman empire. Modern history examines man's struggle in the development of his political, economic, and cultural civilization in Europe.

Following the rapid rise and growth of our own nation, .American history considers the laws and constitution and presents internal and foreign problems of this country

.A greater understanding of all world problems can be reached through analyzing happenings in the past in relation to ourselves and our world affairs today. This understanding is the goal bf the social stU<;:lies department.

Pythagbras and Euclid, with their theorems, axioms, and postulates, are still contributing to modern geometry and to the geometric difficulties of students of geometry 1 and 2. However, a new style of teaching has been suggested for use in these classes and has proved highly successful. After three semesters of research and preparation by the mathematics department the new system, which supplements the usual text with a mimeographed booklet, was presented to geometry classes this semester. Featuring deductive reasoning and its application to situations in everyday life this course has increased student interest and produced better results in comprehensive learning.

Another newcomer to the mathematics department is the surveyor's transit. Through Miss Cook sets up a transit.

it, advanced mathematics classes measure heights and distances and learn how to set the transit up correctly.

Such new ideas as these have kept the mathematics of Lincoln high a living, useful thing, not a technical, easily forgotten subject. A great deal of credit is due the department which has fostered it.

Fitting for Business

Anyone glancing into the various classes which make up the · commercial department sees the office workers of tomorrow learning to type accurately and rapidly or learning the numerous signs and symbols of shorthand.

The salesmen and women of tomorrow ·.s products learn the ground work and important details of selling in salesmanship classes, then practice what they have learned in class by selling Links to their fellow students

Many arts and science or engineering students register in the commercial department • for courses such as bookkeeping, clerical work, typewriting, and shorthand for personal benefits. These students are looking ahead with the idea of saving time the modern way

through usage of shorthand and typing. A dictaphone, purchased last year, is proving its worth by simulating actual office conditions in typing classes. Pupils also receive instructions in the use of the mimeograph and comptometer, and later some students use these machines while working in the office or school bank. Many students obtain a foundation of business law at high school and follow it up at the university. Bookfeeping is another subject which many pupils take for their own benefits and also to gain proficiency in keeping records for use in business and home work. The underlying principle of the commercial department is to educate students for all phases of life, not just the business side.

Men -of the Future

"Chemistry can help win the war" is a statement made by leading war experts. Meanwhile, with some handicaps, the future's chemists, research workers, technicians, and engineers continue to take two semesters of physics and two of chemistry. Because of national defense requirements, a three-weeks delay was caused last fall before the plumbing in the laboratory, eaten away by the acids and the mixtures poured down the drains by students, could be replaced. To date, only a few experiments have had to be dropped because of difficulty in obtaining chemicals needed for the manufacture of war products. In the class rooms, physics students see demonstrations of sound waves, the whys and wherefores of

gravity and pendulums, and the seven colors of the spectrum as produced by a prism. In botany, biology, and zoology classes, arts and science students examine plants, animals, and minute organisms, studying their functions and constructions. The main objective of the physiology classes is to teach students to take better care of their bodies through knowledge of its construction and functions. Proof that_ this is vitally needed is shown in the results of draft and military service examinations. The health committee of a physiology class which conducted a poll to determine what percentage of pupils eat breakfast and what they ate published its conclusive findings in the Advocate.

Learning a Modern T r,ade

Using electric welding and wheel balancing equipment, classes in engine theory are the newest additions to the trades preparatory classes which give pupils a chance to learn a modern trade before leaving school.

Seniors who have completed requirements preceding semesters are eligible for ·cooperative placement with outside employers for both pay and school credit. Some, who have benefited by this are now working for the government and some are in the United States Navy. Students still in school are working for auto parts shops, electrical shops, printing shops, and carpentry shops

Now ready for use are vacuum tube tests and electric welding equipment, designed and constructed by the students of the electricity

shops. The woodworking classes have built scenery for Lincoin high's Joy Night and opera, and furniture for Northeast high. These classes are also headquarters for the five hundred model airplanes being built by students for the United States Navy. Student printers set type and print the programs and style cards for Lincoln high and the Irving junior high news

By adding a class in engine theory open to juniors and seniors for the purpose of studying car, airplane, and diesel engines, wheel balancing equipment, and other smaller articles, the auto shops keep their instruction up to date. Actual ~ork on students' . and teachers' cars gives opportunity for application of principles learned.

First Aid for Emergencies

Today with the threat of bombings, first aid training is especially vital to everyone. Perhaps closer to us here in the Mid-west than bombings are automobile accidents and common home emergencies. Knowledge of methods to help in such emergencies, needed because of the doctor and nurse shortage that may result from war conditions, is the purpose of the required hygiene course. In close connection with the first aid training, care of the sick, handling of children, and care of the home are studied.

Comfort of the patient is the aim of the classes when caring for the sick. Students learn to make beds either with or without an

occupant swiftly and smoothly. Symptoms of various diseases are studied and students practice taking each other's pulses and temperatures.

Students discuss social problems that must be faced by every community. Awareness of these problems is the first step toward combating them. Reports give spec ial background to these studies .

Knitting for Britain and the Red Cross is a special feature of the course this year. Some students work out charts or graphs on disease and care of the home; others study first atd, a demonstration of which was given to the Lincoln high school teachers this year.

What's Cooking in 124

While hungry home economics students, boys and girls alike, get a special delight from eat i ng superlative tid-bits of their own mak i ng , they are learning the importance of food in relat ion to good health today. Recipes to please the budget as well as the palate are carefully studied and mixed. Quality and quant i ties of foods are also objects of interest. Carbohydrates, proteins , minerals , and vitamins all come into their own in the class discussions , for a healthy youth is essential to a country at war.

Boys are especially proud of their cakes, cookies , and extra-fancy eggs Girls may think boys " have no place in the kitchen ," but the able masculine chefs are fast becoming capable of disproving such a statement.

Keeping Us Fit

To give all pupils the benefits and lessons in sportsmanship that can be derived only from active competition in games rather than to form teams for competition against other schools is the purpose of the physical education department of Lincoln high school. Though general physical fitness has just begun to be stressed in nationwide campaigns, Lincoln high school has long planned its physical education program to make every student in the school physically fit . rather than have a few super athletes In this way every student takes courses which give him outside exercise as well as academic subjects. The newly instituted setting up exercises not only strengthen muscles but also perfect coordination of the body and mind.

In classes the boys play basketball, touch football, baseball, have track meets, and swim. The girls enter into all these activities, with the exception of track and football, but also play shuffleboard, volley ball, and deck tennis on portable courts set up in the gymnasium.

The playing fields that surround the school allow outdoor sports for girls and boys alike in favorable weather and some of the hardy even venture out in the snow. Physical education classes are striving to increase the sort of exercise which will help to make better fighting men for America.

Students must develop toughness of body, for strong men and women, such as Lincoln high school's physical education program is endeavoring to produce, are needed in America today.

Earn While You Learn

Among the many curriculums known to the students of Lincoln high, there is a newcomer that is filling a definite need and rapidly becoming popular. This latest addition is known as · distributive trades or part-time cooperative sales, because the students are in school parttime and working in stores part-time. It is especially set up for students who wish to gain preliminary business training early in life, yet who want to finish their high school education and graduate .

Students who have ,made thirty-five hours in their first year may register for this program and those best qualified are selected by interview. In their two junior semesters, these pupils take two five-hour courses in the distributive field and choose the rest from related subjects such as English, history, mathematics, and science. During their senior year, the future floor managers, department heads, buyers, purchasing agents, and other workers in retail stores and wholesale houses take two subjects in the distributive curriculum and one in a related field and then work in the afternoon, thus gaining school credit, pay for work, and a valuable business experience. Among the courses offered in the distributive trades are merchandise information, sales hygiene display, and merchandise mathematics. This course serves to give pupils actual training for a vocation before they leave high school so that they will be able to obtain good full time employment 1when they leave school.

Artists · Paint Murals

Aim of our able guides along the trail of art is to help students give vent to their artist i c ability and to appreciate great art. Realization of special talent is a thrill to all of us . Many find , through study in our comprehensive art courses , that they possess a special gift in some type of art.

Those interested in a general survey of art in its various forms , venture into the art appreciation classes, where they become familiar with the works of the masters and the different types of sculpture, architecture, and art exhibits Several trips have been made to the state capitol building and Morrill Hall.

Among the interesting activities during the year are posters designed and drawn to advertise all the plays , concerts, and Joy Night. First sketches look to the novice like so many hasty pencil lines with no particular meaning . However, this pattern of lines is the basic plan for the finished product. Bright colors are mixed in different combinations to give new

highlights and shadows Each poster, when finished , is an original idea put into paint or • chalk

Art students contribute much to our school. This year murals picturing the mode of life in Spain were designed and painted by a group of diligent painters for a Spanish class. The exceptional murals in the cafeteria were done by members of art classes several years ago Often special pieces are displayed in the main hall.

Drawings and designs from the art classes are exhibited every year in competitive shows in the state. Lincoln high artists bring home many prizes with their fine work.

To many the study of art is the forerunner of an exciting hobby which they may pursue in spare moments. To others the study means preparation for a specialized school and art as an occupation. To all it is a chance to express themselves and study the artistic expressions of others

They Sha M Have Music

To the ears of students all over Lincoln high school come the strains of familiar music . Whether on first floor or third, there is hardly a place in school where music cannot be heard. For music is essentially a part of Lincoln high school. Although there are many specialized groups which perform in public, the majority of music students do not appear before an audience. They take music because they enjoy it and though their ability may not be of concert caliber, there is a certain lift that comes from many voices singing together.

If it is fifth period it may be music from the prep band which does not perform in public but learns the fundamentals of marching and enjoys itself in the process. Prep band and prep orchestra prepare students for advanced work and also give the pupils a chance to try different techniques which advanced classes do not have time for. Music appreciation classes not only learn to recognize great music and appreciate it, but also look into the lives of the people who produced it. There are perhaps, more students taking chorus than taking any other kind of music in the school. Whatever their reasons for entering these classes, all emerge with a better understanding of the music which has influenced the world from time to time. Modern industrial workers increase production when music is carried to their ears, and music classes in Lincoln high are finding that several periods of music every week give relief from the regular school day. Music is assuming a greater part in everyday life and the school plays an important part in educating America for song.

Diversion From Our Studies

A pertinent description of the assemblies of this year might well be the old saying , "Variety is the spice of life . " The students have enjoyed music, discussions, humor, and analysis of the war situation

Dr. William K Pfeiler on September 29, introduced a measure of tolerance to the thinking of everyone , and through contrast, brought home the realization of the privileges Americans enjoy by living in a free land.

A solemn sense of duty permeated the Armistice Day assembly, as the students watched the flag flutter in the breeze and heard Judge

Chappell bring back scenes from the other war.

Typical of the assemblies which have added pepper and ginger to the 'allotment of spices was the athletic assembly on November 14 The football line-up deviated from its usual show of brawny strength with the impersonation of several leading players by a feminine contingent from the Peppers.

Successfu.l Verbal Clashers

Faint echoes of verbal clashes are fading away as another successful year of debating at Lincoln high school comes to an end.

The first opportunity the Lincoln debaters had to match wits with those of other schools came on November 8 at the Benson Invitational tournament in Omaha. Here Lincoln achieved supremacy over the other twenty schools from Iowa, Missouri, and Nebraska.

The debaters suffered reverses at their own tournament December 13, coming in fourth, and again at Midland Lady Luck frowned upon them. On January 23 and 24 the debaters were well out of the woods and on their way to more triumphs at Wesleyan, where they divided top honors with Omaha Central. A sweeping victory and winged trophy rewarded them at Kearney, where the class A teams won first and second place and the Class B team, first.

Bud Hertzler checks through his notes as Bill .Arthaud points out his side of the question.

Dyllis Jo Heitkotter set a new record this year at Doane when she placed first in extemporaneous speaking. At Hastings on February 20, Lincoln again won more than its share of plaudits. While having only 17 % of the teams, they won 50 % of the superiors awarded.

Debate letters this year were awarded by debate coach, Gerald Kvasnicka, to Don Patterson, Harold Luedtke, Jack Wenstrand, Dale Wisser, Roland Luedtke, William Forrey, Harris Barber, Dyllis Jo Heitkotter, and Barbara Griswold.

The intramural tournament was a huge success, having the largest participation in the nine years since it was inaugurated. Enthusiasm abounded while the pro's and con's of international free trade were disputed from all standpoints. The sophomores alone entered 41 teams The grand total was 138 student:::; in active participation

Senior Serenaders

With c: clang clang clang, the hammer started ringing as the choir sang "Music in the Mine " by Dett On the same program were Christiansen's " From Grief to Glory " and a solo by William Orr, " Drink to Me Only with Thine Eyes ." At the close of the program came the "Finale" from Die Meistersinger by Wagner. This spring vesper concert brought the close of the choir ' s concert season as well as a great deal of rejoicing by members of the organization The feeling of a job well done and the removing of those hot black robes and tight collars were the causes of this glee. It is hard to say which reason predominated Their concerts were completed only after singing at

convention of the Nebraska state teachers association, the Kiwanis club , junior high schools, a patriotic assembly, and the Christmas assembly and vespers.

The choir's work was not yet finished, however, as there was the opera to rehearse Having considered the personnel of the group, the reading committee selected Victor Herbert's "Mlle. Modiste," a tuneful satire on women ' s hats. After much friendly rivalry for the singing and speaking parts and after about two months of rehearsal for the chorus and cast, this musical comedy was presented by an appreciative cast to an appreciative audience.

They March ·by Night

Up to date! That's the motto of the band. In proof of this it offers a year-to-year increase of ability in formation marching It marches onto the football field with uniforms glistening in the floodlights A roll on the drums; a fanfare from the trumpets The formation starts. At first, the spectator is confused by this seemingly meaningless spider web which spreads over the field. Suddenly a whistle blows It has the effect of a magician waving his wand over a hat. However , the whistle brings not a rabbit, but a well-planned living picture. It may be a letter, an airplane, or a star. Whatever it is , hours of planning and drilling have made it possible

Funds from a dance and donations provided a trip to the Scottsbluff game . Not only did the band members help other students support the team, though the score indicated that it wasn't necessary, but they became ambassadors of good will Their special train stopped at several towns along the way where the band marched and played. This was enjoyed by both the band and the townspeople, but especially by the band.

Under the direction of Bernard F. Nevin, the band proves its versatility by playing concert marches and classical adaptations as well as novelty numbers for the vesper concerts.

Musicians in the Making

A rustle of music. The final tuning of instruments. The baton is raised and the strains of Beethoven's "First Symphony" fill the auditorium. Later in the program the listener hears a syncopated tune, " Jazz Pizzacato, which is a favorite among student listeners . Following this may come the melodious "On The Steppes of Central Asia" by Borodin After the last chord is played, the instruments are placed in their cases and another concert is finished--a concert that was prepared by hours of hard work and steady practice by an orchestra that plays difficult pieces and plays them well. The orchestra plays not only for the vesper concerts, but also for the secondary schools appreciation concerts . The most antic i pated event of all is the opera In this , the orchestra plays a new role by accompanying the choir. This year's " Mlle Modiste " was especially tuneful.

Two chief factors contribute to the quality of the group: the ability of the members and of their ::::onductor, Bernard F . Nevin, and the type of music played. Their music library, of which they boast, is one of the most complete in the state. Included among the 186 selections are several foreign editions such as Liszt's · "Prelude," Humperdink ' s " Prayer " from " Hansel and Gretel, " and a Franck symphony. These are increasing in value, as they can no longer be obtained because of the war.

Keep Singing, America

With the singing of "Sons of Freedom," composed by their director, Hugh T Rangeler, the boys glee set the patriotic theme for this year's Joy Night. Resplendent in their white uniforms, they marched and sang their way to a fitting prelude for the program

Another phase of this year's activities is that of singing for various civic organizations and for vesper concerts Concerts for junior high schools are also given yearly. Such performances have an intrinsic value , as they not only provide listening pleasure for the audiences, • but also give to the glee club the experience in public so necessary in the training of an organization of this type .

The applause that follows each song and the constant demand from groups throughout the city for the girls glee club prove that the sixty -two girls in the organization, carefully selected and trained by their director, Miss Helen Stowell, are appreciated by the city at large as well as by the school.

The glee club provided an inspiring climax to Joy Night with several patriotic songs. Led by the student director, Peggy Shelley, they paid tribute to the Red Cross nurses with the singing of " Angels of Mercy . " The stage was darkened and the girls sang "You ' re a Grand Old Flag" as a spotlight was turned on the flag which waved in the breeze.

The Octets Go to Town

Music is literally in the air every other fourth period . A visitor on the third floor heard the music one day and navigated by ear to its source , room 326. There he found the girls octet, Miss Helen Stowell, their director, and Paul LeBar, accompanist. The octet was probably rehearsing a program for, according to Miss Stowell, they are invited to sing " almost everywhere. " The group is in such demand that it was necessary to limit their activities to certain types of organizations.

The outstanding numbers on their programs were "Angels' Chorus " from "Faust" by Schubert, and "M edley from the Sunny South " arranged by Victor Harris.

Because the boys have long felt that there were eight male voices equal in ability to eight girls vo i ces, a boys octet was formed this year. Looking back on their first year the organization can enjoy the fact that even though the first year is the hardest they have enjoyed a successful season. In selecting the members, Hugh T. Rangeler, their director, chose only those who in addition to their ability , had voices which blended well with the others

The octet sang on several occasions, foremost of which was a patriotic program Having displayed exceptional ability in their first season , they may certainly look forward to greater activit i es in future years.

"The Meeting Wi II Come to Order"

To furnish a stimulating outlet for students ' interests is the underlying reason for -the varied club schedule at Lincoln high school. Through the school's clubs, each student may find extra-curricular activities which interest him and provide contacts with other people who feel as he does Some clubs are open to everyone and others choose their membership by try-outs alone, but one and all, they have something of value to offer students

Each club turns its accumulation of talent to good advantage , trying to give something of value to outsiders as well as to the club itself. The Mimes assembly, the Mummers play, the home economics style show, the Forum Faulkner cup contest, and the Peppers assemblies are only a few of the club productions which are presented to the student body. The writers club annually publishes a collection of poetry, short stories and essays, the Scribe. Although comparatively new , the camera club has provided a dark room in the school itself which students may use.

Most clubs, when they have an exceptional speaker, open the meeting to the public and in this way the whole school can benefit from whatever that meeting presents.

The Orpheons and Clef club furnish musical entertainment and the Orpheons sponsor the annual opera Dramatists find their outlet either in Mimes or Mummers. Branches of the Y.W C.A. and Y.M.C.A.' are the Girl Reserves and the Hi-Y. Physical prowess is honored in girls athletic association and in the L club , boys sports club; camera club and chemistry club study the miracles brought about by the shutter and test tube At the Round Table or Forum vital questions are debated .

Talented writers and artists have a wide scope in writers club and the art club. Inexpensive trips are to be had for the asking in travel club . Business girls club and home economics club interest themselves in the latest styles and tips on the various fields of business

"Post-war Problems," "Immigrants and Refugees" and "Class-Consciousness" are a few of the weighty subjects tackled as one day ' s diet by the members of Forum , oratorical club. These topics were discussed by Ward Olney, Ruth French , Shirley Grossman, and James McEachen . Topics such as "The Advantage of a Plastic Automobile", "Palmistry", and " College Pranks " , provided variety at other meet-ings . Membership in the Forum is obtained by giving speeches before a group of judges. The outstanding activities of the Forum are the Lee, Angle, Jones , Guinan, Bouwsma, Pickering

Faulkner cup oratorical contest, the Forum banquet, and the spring picnic.

With his original oration, "Commemoration to a Date", Jack Wenstrand won first place in the Faulkner contest and was awarded the honor of having his name engraved on the cup. Runners-up in the contest were James Ryan with his speech "Plea of the Unknown Soldier ", and William Angle with his plea for " Peace ". Judges for the finals were Val Peterson, secretary to Governor Griswold, Miss Vera Harvey, and Miss Virginia Crawford, both from Wesleyan University

Writing

An auspicious beginning is achieved by the 1942 Scribe, annual publication of the writers club, with the opening poem , "America " , and its accompanying frontispiece . Following are essays, poems, and short stories that hold one in suspense until their unusual conclusions. The trend throughout is toward optimistic patriotism. Of special note this year is the distinctive and decorative print employed for titles of various works

Notable moments at the writers club meetings were furnished when Mrs J. Brierton Townsend, state Americanism chairman in the American Legion auxiliary, and Miss Betty Lemon , a former Lincoln high student now broadcasting over KFOR spoke on "American-

Americans

ism" and "Script Writing". An interesting talk on the life of Robert Burns, the great Scotch poet, was given by Dr. Walter Aitken, pastor of St. Paul church at a large open meeting. This club fosters creative writing in Lincoln high students and gives students the chance to read their material before fellow members . They often give brief reviews and biographies of authors at meetings. This year reviews of such books as " Kitty Foyle" , "Wuthering Heights ", and "Demon Daughter", were presented and the lives of authors, John Neihardt, John Bunyon, Adolf Hitler, George- Bernard Shaw, and Rudyard Kipling were given . A short history of the club and a program of Latin American music also proved popular.

Clean Sportsmanship and Living

Everything from soup to nuts! This phrase may be well applied to the varied menu of the Hi-Y club, for entertainment has included everything from speeches on life in warring countries to movies of the famous comedians, Laurel and Hardy. Notables such as Harold Rounds, international secretary .of the Y.M.C.A.., who spoke on his travels in wartorn Poland, Japan, and China, and the Rev. Raymond A.. McConnell of the First Plymouth Congregational church in Lincoln had "Youth at the Helm" as his topic. Lyle Weyand, head basketball coach at Lincoln high school; Henry Grimm, the local Y.M.C.A.. secretary; and W. Judson Woods, who is in charge of KFA.BKFOR broadcasting studios, spoke on basket-

ball, the local Hi-Y club, and success in radio.

The Hi-Y building provides not only recreational facilities and a meeting place for its sophomore, junior and senior members, but also a haven for hungry soldiers, for the students have generously given up their cafeteria to some hundred students from the Lincoln Flying school.

Under the able sponsorship of Ralph Hansen and Joe Toman, the Hi-Y provides interest for every boy in Lincoln high school and is worthy of everyone's attention. This club, nation-wide in its orgadization, believes in upholding Christian ideals and helping its members develop clean sportsmanship and clean living.

Music Hath Power

With the admission of 64 talented upperclassmen to the ranks, Orpheons, junior and senior musical organization, hds presented many especially fine programs this year as well as sponsoring the annual opera.

Everything from comparing Indian and American music to swinging the classics was presented during the year. The scene for the former program was an Indian village where Alene Babich, Betty Fees, Martha Davis, and Phyllis Dworsky ably presented the merits of Indian music. Rosemary Cook, Hedwig Schultz, Barbara Jean Olson, and Helen Collins "answered back" with some American music and the whole club joined in the finale "God Bless America." Jean Frances Thrailkill, Joanne Steinbrecker, Doris Bauer, Mary Helen Alexis,

Marjorie Walters , Marian Coombs, Carol Lea Anderson, and Mildred Engstrom were responsible for setting the classical works to modern tempos for presentation before the club

8n alumni program was also presented with Dorothy Huffman '40, Elaine Lebsack '41, and Johnson Beam '41 who gave an interesting program for the club members.

Besides such club activities the Orpheons helped to advertise, work on, and put over the annual opera. This year the opera was "Mlle. Modiste" by Victor Herbert, and, since many choir members also belong to Orpheons, the two groups coordinated efficiently in the presentation of this highlight of Lincoln's musical year.

Sports for Al I

Twenty years ago a group of teachers and students decided to organize the girls in Linc oln high who were interested in sports into a club. Of course the sports at first were limited because of the cost of equipment and because interest had to be aroused among the girls.

Twice each year letters and emblems are giv e n to those girls who have earned them, and who are members in good standing of the G. A. A. In the winter a banquet is held and in the spring, a picnic

White Collar Girls

From speakers of authority, members of the business girls club learn of various phases of business and professional life. This year requirements for a nurse were related by Miss Harriet Wood , nurse of the Junior League baby clinic.

The club joined with the home economics club so that both might benefit from the talk on hair styles given by Miss Agnes Schmidt of a local beauty shop.

Cheer! Cheer!

An invaluable aid to every athletic combat are the Peppers, Lincoln high's "booster club" which attends each game to cheer the team on in the face of either victory or defeat.

Before games the Peppers present assemblies which sometimes include comical original sketches This year many great dramas were given, including " What's the John Henry?" or " Slip the Handle to Me, Randall," a quiz show; a sketch based on the Sioux Indian theme in which the murder of Beechner was attempted by Indian squaws, and "The Links in a Blackout" or "OH Boy!" featuring Peggy Shelley as Coach Lyle Weyand. The cheer-ometer which registers the cheers of the audience was demonstrated this year.

School Hefties

In Joy Night, the L club's one public showing during the year, the boys let loose all pent up stea;n and brought down the rafters for three nights with a combination of tumbling, gags, and music. Next to Joy Night, came the swim at Capitol Beach, after which the boys enjoyed a picnic supper.

The L club is composed of all the major lettermen of the school. Of this group, those who have a high scholastic average are admitted to the national athletic honor society. The club is sponsored by the coaches and its main objective is to 9reate a sense of sportsmanship and to honor the best athletes.

Dramatists

"On Broadway the ploy's the thing ." .And so it is in Lincoln high, when the Mummers, junior and senior dramatic -group, present their annual play which this year was "You Can ' t Take It With You." Their plays open the Lincoln high dramatic season, and are anticipated by everyone.

The sponsors, Miss .Annetta Sprung and Mrs. Winifred .Ayers, along with the officers, see that variety of entertainment is provided for meetings . .A trip through the Temple theatre and an address by Paul Bogan, director of the University Players, received enthusiastic applause from members.

Unlimited

With their shortened version of "She Stoops to Conquer, " members of Mimes, sophomore dramatic club, made their first performance before a Lincoln high audience.

.An open meeting before the try-outs made new students familiar with the workings of the club and seventy-four members were admitted this year. .At each meeting short plays or poems have been presented by the members , and for the first time in history Mimes presented at the annual sophomore party, a sketch, ".A Matter of Smell," with Bonnie Pierce and Jacqueline Gordon playing the parts.

Reserves Grow

Working with the Y.W.C.A.. to stress good social relationships and vocational guidance , the Girl Reserves is now the largest club in Lincoln high school. With prominent speakers giving talks to the club, the members gained much in education.

The Girl Reserves had many varieties of programs this year, as well as a Valentine party, a "Friday the 13th" party, and bowling lessons. They entered into the spirit of Christmas by dressing twenty-six dolls which were furnished by the club treasury, club members, and the Junior League of the city.

Young Musicians

.Although they give no public performances, members of Clef club , sophomore musical group, gain wide experience from performing before their critical fellow members.

.A.s with other clubs the quiz program proved itself popular with Clef club along with discussion groups. Early .American music was the theme of one meeting when several members played and sang typical music of this era, and Marilyn Davis told of the Puritan music . Each member performs at least once during a semester.

Many who started . here as sophomores progress far on the musical ladder of success both in and out of school.

Shutterbugs

With the addition of a club darkroom, the camera club is fast gaining a conspicuous place in Lincoln high The darkroom , located below room 132, is open only to members of the club , who pay for the equipment used.

Also for the entertainment of the " shutterbugs" many speakers of authority have been presented for meetings . Using about $1 ,000 worth of equipment, W W. Eden displayed the correct lighting for taking p ictures. Fred Arnold, a Journal photographer , displayed press prints The sponsors , Miss Elizabeth Grone and Julius Young , showed the members ways of developing and enlarging pictures A large audience was present when Mrs. Della Fierce demonstrated p icture tinting

Easel Artists

Everything from water color painting to the demonstration of pottery, painting , and needlework crafts was provided for members of the art club this year. J. R. Sorby , instructor in water color at the University of Nebraska , showed some of his paintings and Mrs . J. E Kirshman illustrated her craft with some of her own work in batik , pottery, and painting

Along with visits to Morrill Hall, the future Rembrandts heard a talk by Richard Ernesti at one of the local display rooms Mrs. W . L.

Headliners at Work

Letters form slowly but steadily from the pens of the three page editors. Headlines that wouldn't fit yesterday miraculously compress into the allotted space as the deadline for copy creeps nearer. Hurried but efficient copy editors feed copy to the typewriters and snatch it from them for a final vise'.

The scene, of course, is the Advocate office on Friday night. All is serene the next Wednesday, however, for the sight of satisfied readers enjoying the paper rewards these earnest efforts. The news flashes forth in the Advocate after its bath of printer's ink, and students may read of sports events, contests, elections, and all the other activities necessary to education in a busy high school.

For all aspiring foreign correspondents and editors of national newspapers, a course in newswriting is advisable. Acting on this principle, the students have been publishing the Advocate for forty-seven years. This year, under Miss Farman's direction,

special emphasis has been placed on new trends in streamlined make-up. Students have tried the balanced and unbalanced types of page make-up. Under this policy, a large number of pictures nave been added to vary the news.

When surprised students first greeted the new Roto section, an enthusiastic response guaranteed its continuance. The National Scholastic Press Association is the fairy godmother that has provided this monthly tabloid for the school without charge. In it candid shots appear from schools all over the country. Any candid camera fiend will receive his proper recognition and pecuniary reward of three dollars if his work of art is accepted by the Roto section

Potential scions of the newspaper family are managing editors, Louise Putney, Shirley Grossman, and Burton Folsom; news editors, James May, Peggy Haase, and Barbara Hoevet for the first semester; and for the second semester, managing editors, Barbara Emerson, Gretchen Schroeder and Susan Chambers; news editors, Alene Babich, Mary Claire Phillips and Shirley Hinds.

This Above All

The colorful folds of Old Glory in this year ' s Links are indicative of the spirit revealed throughout the book that the school must and will do its part to help win the war. It is with this thought in mind that the book is dedicated to the boys in uniform. That the Links has a real place in the war effort is proved by the demand for copies for and by those in service The year book for 1942 indicates that the students are learning to do their part to help win the war by the enrollment of boys and girls to build model airplanes, the practice air raids that have been initiated, and the v ictory book drive The classes have impressed upon them the significance of history in the world today, the need for trained first aid, and the usefulness of a general education for war even as for peace For the first time this year there are pictures of boys in uniform among those who graduate.

Throughout the book the students are seen following the trail to p sound education. Inter-

spersed ctmong the scholastic struggles are the many diversions offered to all who are interested. .After the examination hurdles are overcome each year, the pupil toils forward until at last as a senior he gains the summit triumphant. The teachers and faculty are his faithful guides and counselors who help him minimize the difficulties he must encounter. The way is made sunny by the performances staged and the recreation afforded by the clubs.

The Links is the faithful scribe which records these adventures for the students on their way while scenes along the trail are cleverly depicted therein by the deft touch of the staff artist. Seven board members complete the records, aided by numerous interested department editors who write articles, type, serve as librarians, and make themselves useful wherever possible.

Modiste

The greatest source of amusement the world has ever known , women ' s hats, seemed to have amused Victor Herbert sufficiently for him to make a hat shop a center of activity in his musical comedy, "Mlle. Modiste ." Complete with an American millionaire, French soldiers, generals, counts, milliners, and dancers, the choir presented this opera with the assistance of the orchestra.

The proprietress of the hat shop, Mme. Cecile, alternately reprimands her daughters, Fanchette and Nanette, raises the price on '' white elephant " hats of her own creation, and attempts to get Fifi to marry her son. Fifi, who would get all the bonuses for selling the most hats if any were given, will have nothing to do with the son as she is in love with Etienne, the Comte de St. Mar's nephew. The Count

Fanchette and Nanette show their wares

acts as all good counts of fiction and verse should by refusing to let his nephew marry a girl of such low birth . Hiram Bent, from Keokuk, Iowa, supplies comedy for the opera and money for Fifi , who wants to continue her musical training. A year passes and Fifi triumphantly returns to Paris.

Life In The Army

"Halt! Friend or enemy? You ' re going to Joy Night? Pass, Friend."

Friends entering the auditorium at Lincoln high those three nights found that they were seeing the recreation center of an army camp. At least that is what the programs said they were attending and that was the theme carried out by the fifteen acts.

Setting the cadence for the evening, the boys glee marched and sang as they saluted the Sons of Freedom by singing the composition of their director, Hugh T. Rangeler, "Hail to the Sons of Freedom." The last act on the

program was equally impressive as the girls glee provided patriotic songs. As a climax to their act, while the auditorium was darkened, a spotlight was turned on the flag of our country waving in the breeze.

The acts were too numerous to give proper credit, but a few might be mentioned: Peggy Shelley depicted the "hick from the sticks, " Clem, who finally found his girl friend Daisy June , after a clever combination of dancing and piano playing; the L club's recreation period provided a symphony made up entirely of toy instruments, also a drill team and a fast moving tumbling act; Ed Toohey played his

Connie McBride and Peggy Hudson smile as they do a difficult step in their Russian dance

original piano compositions , "Almost Boogie" and "Spanish Dance "; Margaret Munson made her chalk talk as she amazed the audience with her ability to draw a straight line and convert a milk bottle into a healthy letterman; the Flying Aces, Fay Litchenberg and Adelbert Tipton, gave a breathtaking roller skating act; a snappy patriotic tap routine was provided by Marylouise Brodie , Phyllis Patterson, and Fred Langenheim.

A separate paragraph should be devoted to the faculty act. An enormous family album was brought on stage. As a soldier turned the pages, it was explained that he was looking through a family album donated to the Victory Book campaign. The pictues he saw in the album came to life through characterizations by members of the faculty. Coy Miss Pound and husky Mr Young rode on a bicycle built for two while an almost professional sounding quartet accompanied them with appropriate songs. Mr Mardis saved his little Nell, and Mrs. Ayers staggered the audience with a heart-breaking rendition of "The Curfew Shall Not Ring Tonight;" the album was closed

Athletes All

Mermaids of the deep are Latta, Peters, Mardis and Kargo.

The modern athlete is not only a spor tswoman who looks after her physical self a n d sets up marks in a wide range of sporti ng events, but she shows enthusiasm for all oth er types of activities in a cosmopolitan hi g h school. As the range of possible activities becomes wider, more and more students ta k e part.

Lincoln high has a comparatively sm a ll number of girls who limit their field of acti vities to sports alone. They have broaden e d their abilities and tastes, and by participati n g in sports along with their other activities acquire a grace and poise which are very desirable . According to ' a poll taken among the me mbers of G.A.A., it seems that Girl Reserv e s

run hand in hand with the G A.A., as many girls who are in the one club belong to the other. This also holds true with the Peppers. Trying their hand at writing seems to appeal to many of the- sports-minded girls, for the G.A.A. has always had a large share of Advocate staff members.

Of those who try their skill in outside activities the majority choose either music or sports of some kind , and a great many choose both. The G.A.A. has girls in choir, Orpheons, Clef club, girls glee, and octet.

Although horsemanship is a new sport, it has caught the eye of many girls who otherwise had no special interest in G.A.A. These girls have readily taken their place in the club and, through belonging, have become interested in other sports .

Cup Girl '42

Five letters and six emblems adorn the sweater of the 1942 G.A.A. cup girl, Ardyce Kargo . Chosen by her fellow club members for exceptional ability m citizenship, leadership, and scholarship, as well as in athletic achievement Ardyce deserves this honor on all points. Besides lettering twice in swimming and basketball , she was swimming leader during her junior year. Speedball brought her another letter and varied sports furnished the fields for securing her emblems.

A scholarship rating of 1.84 and 22 superior citizenship ratings show that Ardyce has not neglected her class work. She has also participated in many extra-curricular activities such as choir, girls glee, octet, Advocate, and Links.

" Hot stuff," say Finney , Saul , Porter and Blunk.

Ardyce Kargo

Tall 10-B basketball team rests after an almost victorious season. The candy bought at football and basketball games came through these capable hands.

Skiles, Turner, Duckworth and Todd take their golf the easy way Jane Lawrence and _ Carol Lea Anderson practice their strokes. Lincoln high's newest sport brought these four girls into the sporting picture. The victorious senior speedball team poses for its picture. June Skiles demonstrates rhythmic dancing.

Little Amazons

In the fall the junior-senior team took ,,over the speedball tournament and marched right down to victory.

Neither number nor ability was lacking at the tenni.s tourney last fall in which Jane Lawrence came out victorious over Virginia Null in the finals.

The senior swimmers again were predominant but the sophomores were so close on their heels that the upperclassmen nearly got singed. Catherine Hutton won individual honors, with Ardyce Kargo and Barbara Jackson rounding off second and third respectively.

The dark horse team in the basketball tourney was the lOB's. The freshies knocked out the juniors but coudn't quite hold the pace long enough to overcome the seniors, and the upperclassmen captained by Ardyce Kargo and Harriet Turner came out victorious.

Showing excellent form and lasting quality

Marjorie Wagner, Jessie Gentry, and Mildred Johnson won first place honors in the riding contest last fall. It was held in a drizzling rain one Saturday morning and the contestants proved th~ir abilities and love of the sport in coming out.

The annual golf tournament turned out to be a whizz-bang affair this year and the nine holes were covered with remarkably low scores. Donna Todd and Harriet Turner battled away but at the finish Donna won.

William Tell holds nothing over four Lincoln high girls who plunged their arrows straight into the heart of the target, to win the archery honors. They were Lois Wright, Donna Todd, Virginia Seacrest and Billie Steelman.

Links Rate High

Athletics in ihe modern school is one of the most important aspects in giving the school a good name and making the institution well known. In this, Lincoln high school has succeeded in winning more than its share of acclaim and success. The records of state champions for the past years show Lincoln high school listed many a time As well as winning many state championships in tennis, golf, track , baseball, football, basketball, it has also won Missouri Valley championships, where not only many teams from Nebraska but some of the best from Iowa are entered.

Besides the boys on the many teams, every pupil is ' required to take a certain amount of physical education during his stay at Lincoln high in order not only to give every person

c: ~crcise to keep him in good health, but also to arouse interest in various sports, so as to provide good material for Lincoln high athletics. Some of the various sports offered in the physical education classes are touch football , basketball, softball and swimming .

Girls as well as boys, play such sports in t1ieir physical education classes and although they do not have teams to compete with other schools , they form various teams to compete among themselves in the school.

The main purpose of athletics in Lincoln high school is to provide activities for students interested in sports , and to develop clean sportsmanship and good living so that the students of Lincoln high will make better citizens upon leaving this school.

Out on the Gridiron

It was a high-spirited Lincoln high school football squad, using the intricate T formation, that romped over all their opponents by impressive scores during the season. Before the season opened, all reports were pessimistic about their lack of weight and experience, and that there were only five returning lettermen and only four other veterans.

The Red and Black opened against the Curtis Aggies and sent the boys home with a 45-0 shellacking. The .Aggies were dazed by the quick opening plays run from the T formation,

and were never able to threaten the Lincoln goal.

In their second game, the Links varied from the T, to down the Sioux City East eleven 21-13 with sheer power. The game was a bitter fight to the end with East threatening several times. Early in the fourth period, the Raiders scored, bringing the score to 14-13, and for a short time it looked as if they might score again. The Red and Black finally stopped this threat and drove 76 yards for their third score .

In t9eir first game abroad, the Links journeyed to Scottsbluff, where they took things in their own hands and set the Bearcats down 35-0.

The next week the Red and Black captured a 13-6 decision from Lincoln Northeast before a thrilled crowd of about 6,700 people. It was early in the second period when Ray Boehmer pushed over the 1-yard line for the first score after the Red and Black had pushed 45 yards. Ed Hall set the pins up for the second touchdown a short time later, when he cut short

one of Rex Mercer's passes on the Northeast 34-yard line.

In the next two games they engaged Om~ha South and Tech on the Tech field. The field was a mud hole for both encounters and the Links had to resort to aerials. In both games it was the same combination of Gene Kirkendall to Jerry Regelean, which did the trick. The Links emerged from both games with a narrow 7-0 margin.

ground. This time it was the strong Omaha Central eleven who tumbled to a 25-0 defeat at the hands of the Links, who were using speed and deception with the T formation.

Lincoln ended its season by blasting Grand Island all over the field to the tune of 53-0 . In fact, the Links were so much superior to the Islanders that the last two periods of the game were limited to eight minutes instead of the usual twelve.

Thus the Red and Black gridders ended their schedule with both the Missouri Valley crown and the mythical state championship to their credit.

The Lincoln high eleven piled up a total of 206 points in their eight games to their opponents' 19. Boehmer was high scorer with 60 points, while Regelean was second with an aggregate of 36.

Fore!

With only one letterman and one certificate winner returning to the golf team the boys started out by taking the opener from Fremont 11-1.

In this, their only encounter before the Missouri Valley meet, all members had impressive scores. Lee Knopp placed a neat 78 before his opponent to tuck the medal honors and 3 po ints. Harry Meginnis and Burt Folsom also collected 3 points apiece while Hinds was garnering 2 and dropping 1

The Links managed to secure a hold on fourth place in the Missouri Valley meet, as Harry Meginnis swatted out an 82 to be low man of the Lincoln four.

Links Netters

The tennis team, like the golf team, had only one competitive meet before their first big engagement, the Missouri Valley meet. Against Plattsmouth, the Links netters copped a 2-0 decision as McArthur, Kleinert and Flick proved too much for the Plattsmouth boys. After dropping his first set, McArthur came back to whip Lars Larsen, state prep runner-up last year, 4-6, 7-5, 6-3. In the doubles, Kleinert and Flick won in straight sets, 8-6, 6-3

The netters ended up in fourth place in the Missouri Valley as McArthur slapped back all contenders to w in the singles. The doubles team of Kleinert and Rawson dropped by the waysid2 after reaching the semi-finals.

The Cage Sport

Sporting one of the most spectacular records of all time, the Lincoln high hoopsters won 13 of 16 games during the season and plucked off the state championship in the tournament.

The Red and Black swept through their first nine games without a blemish. Then in their tenth encounter , they met Omaha South, which set them down, 18-16 for their first defeat. The Links had previously beaten the Packers by the same scant two-point margin.

The other two defeats which the Links suffered were administered by Lincoln Northeast and Falls City The boys got revenge on both of these teams, however, in the regional tournament at Beatrice. Led by big Don Mc.Arthur, the Lincoln hoopsters set Beatrice , Falls City, and Lincoln Northeast down in impressive fashion. In these three games, the Red and Black averaged 51 points per game

to the opponents ' 27, making them heavy favorites for the state tournament.

The Lincoln quintet hit a scoring spree in their first tournament game against York. They rolled up 55 points to the Dukes ' 39 in this one.

In their second encounter , Weyand 's boys met a strong Creighton Prep quintet and at half time led by the scant margin of one point. The Prepsters gave ground, however, in the second period and the Links went on to win 32-23

Meanwhile, Lincoln Northeast had been squeezing past all opponents in the other bracket to make the finals an all-Lincoln affair. The game was slow and deliberate at first, but as time grew scarce, both teams began to open up and fouls were plentiful. The Red and Blackf outlasted the Rockets in

,the final half and emerged with a 35-27 victory and the trophy.

This was the third meeting of the two Lincoln schools and was the rubber game, as both had won one of the two previous games.

Although Don McArthur and John Dean were chosen on the all-tournament team and Al Bloom, Ed Hall, and Roger O ' Donnell were given honorable mention, it also took the good team work and high spirits of the rest of the boys to pull the team through to glory .

Sporting a team of almost all veterans, the Links opened this season by defeating Walton 29-2. The Links slapped out 21 hits to send their 29 runs across the platter.

Just three days later, the Links met Omaha South and slipped under their power 6-5. The Red and Black had two big innings in the fourth and fifth, as Galter, O'Donnell, Bloom, Rubino, and Jacobsen got timely hits to shove all five of their runs across in the two frames. It was not until the final stanza that the Packers could squeeze across the winning tally.

The Red and Black pounded Northeast pitchers unmercifully in their next game for 19 runs. The Rockets were able to muster up only 1 run off, the efforts of the three Lincoln pitchers, Hall, Hamilton and Hays.

Harold Jacob and Henry Maser amazed Seward with hitless pitching while their mates _were lashing out 18 runs to win handily.

In full stride, in their next encounter, Johnny Dean and Harold Jacob held Plattsmouth to two scant hits for a 3-2 victory. The Links gathered in their tallies on eight timely blows by Hall, Jacobsen, Rubino, and Lantz in the first, fourth, and fifth frames.

Cinder Path

Although this year 's track outfit was minus a few of the high point men of a year ago, the large majority were eturning lettermen. After sifting out the largest field in Lincoln high's history of the sport, Coach Beechner produced one of the strongest teams of the last decade. At Beatrice, the Links romped over the four other teams with 63½ points , while their nearest rival could aggregate only 37. Jake Jacobs led the Red and Black with two victories, while Fred Birkman turned in a time of 52 seconds flat in the 440.

With their easy victory at the M-I-N-K invitational meet at Peru, the Links made them-

selves early favorites for the state meet. They crushed last year's state champions, Omaha Tech, by a 40 point margin in chalking up 64 points . Individual honors at the invitational went to Jacobs, McWilliams, Birkman , Barnes, and Edling, all of whom plucked off blue ribbons.

In the inter-city meet, Coach Beechner relied upon some of his reserves who swept the meet with 761/5 points Running with a stiff south wind, Parkin tied for honors in the century with the good time of 10.2 seconds. Frank Anderson literally flew over the high hurdles and nabbed first place in 16.5 seconds.

Football

The Lincoln high reserves had only two games during the fall, but their record was none the less impressive. They were never scored upon in either of their two engagements, one a 33-0 rout of the Beatrice reserves, and the other a close 6-0 decision from the Omaha Tech seconds.

During the 33-0 trouncing of the Beatrice subs, sparked by Bob Jacobsen ' s 98-yard run, the reserves were in full command . A considerable portion of the second half was spent trying out the intricate T formation which the first team used to great advantage during its impressive season.

In their only other encounter, Joe Toman's

Reserves

boys journeyed to Omaha, where, after a long and hard game, they emerged with a 6-0 victory over the strong Tech reserves. It was a back and forth battle from one end of a muddy field to the other, and it was not until the fourth quarter hat Bob Jacobsen finally romped over the goal for the lone counter.

With the defeat of the Omaha Tech reserves, the Red and Black reserves added yet another year, making five since a reserve team has been defeated.

Many of these boys will be fighting on the first team next fall and their record shows that Lincoln high will have another championship team.

Sons of

After an unimpressive record of wins and losses in the seasonal get-togethers, the Lincoln high tankers pulled a surprise upset in the state tournament by dividing the championship honors with the strong Omaha Tech outfit. The Lincoln mermen won 6 of the 8 events, but they could not supply enough reserve strength to provide a winning margin. Individual first place honors went to Jim Waters, in the 100-yard breaststroke, Bill Fenton, in the 100-yard backstroke, and Perry Branch in the SO- and 100-yard freestyle events. Branch set a new state record in the SO-yard freestyle. The final relay, which had been the jinx all season, provided the tying points.

Neptune

During the season, the Red and Black tankers met the Omaha Tech swimmers twice. Both times Tech slipped by the Links by winning the final relay. Omaha won the first meet 35-31 and the second 37-29.

The Links opened their season against Des Moines Roosevelt high school, which proved to be too much for them, and they dropped the contest 41-25.

In their two meets with Fremont, Coach Francis relied upon his reserves to bring home the victories. This they did to the tune of 30-27 and 32-25.

The tankers also met Beatrice twice and came out on top by dunking t he Orangemen with 43-23 and 37-29 scores.

Tenderfeet

New, eager, and ready to get in there and get going are the sophomores that every semester join the ranks of Lincoln high students.

Incoming sophomores greatly appreciate their principal's thorough discussion of registration, clubs, credit, assemblies, and curriculums in his weekly assemblies. Many a question arises in the mind of any first-semesterer and most of these are answered in these concise talks.

Also extremely helpful to sophomores are the tours of the school conducted by members of the student council and the conferences with members of the national honor society about registration and future plans in both courses of study and extra-curricular activities. Discoveries of many opportunities offered are made by these new students.

.Acquaintances 'are rapidly made and friendships blossom at the sophomore party. Surrounded by so many changes the sophomore is happy to have a chance to meet members of his class and choose new friends. Prospective Joy Nighters appear on the program given for the party. Fallowing the program and games, refreshments are served in the cafeteria.

.Athletics have huge drawing powers it seems from the number of boys and girls that pursue this line of recreation. Sophomo~~s notice immediately the large variety of equipment and the coaching and teaching staff Proof of this was in the large turn-out at olympics .A sizeable number of sophomores were on the reserve teams this year and a few made a good showing at the interclass track meet this spring, and without doubt valuable tracksters will be developed.

Juniors On The March

Full of enthusiasm, Lincoln high juniors give the real spring to school life. While the senior worries over plans after graduation and the sophomore struggles to shake off his daze; the junior goes his merry way taking everything in stride.

Duly proud was the junior class this year of their contribution to the state championship football, basketball, and swimming teams. Important is the fact that these junior champs will be on hand next year to carry on. fl greater part of the reserve teams is made up of juniors. From these the first-stringers will be developed next year.

Under the able guidance of their sponsors, Miss Ethel B. Beattie and Mrs. Gladys H. Temple, the class of '43 chose, advertised, and produced "June Mad . " Thespians of a high calibre trod the traditional boards and displayed acting ability of which to . be proud.

The newsy Advocate staff was composed, for the most part, of juniors. Being in the midst of nearly everything, these diligent reporters snooped and scooped along the news channels.

Juniors are proud of their records in the olympics. All the rivalry of the year between the classes comes out on this day-and the ju!lior class, as always, made a good showing this year. Without a doubt the wild cheers of the feverish crowd helped shove the athletes over the line.

Contributing a good share to the great success of Joy Night, the class proved that the members had entertaining capacity. They opened and closed the show through the two glee clubs and prqvided several other acts.

So the junior class hurries on, juggling regular studies and outside activities dexterously.

Sponsors of the Class of ' 42

Al I-Conquering Seniors

The class of '42 first entered the portals of Lincoln high school September 18, 1939 and fondly said good-bye June 5, 1942. Many events between these dates have added to the fame and fortune of the class . Until the sophomore party when all had a chance to get acquainted, the new-comers felt a little strange. Soon, however, everyone was joining clubs and learning the intricacies of the labyrinth of halls joining the classrooms. They first set a precedent for themselves with the production of scenes from Shakespeare's comedy in the Mimes assembly. With the advent of spring, came elections and the new students

were initiated into the mysteries of primaries and the general election.

As juniors they won acclaim with the production of "One Mad Night," a mystery comedy in which a playwright wandered upon a house full of harmless mental patients The advertising was especially striking because of the dolls representing characters in the play, which were displayed above the auditorium door. In the meantime, as the class grew older, it also grew wiser. The 'versatility of the class was exhibited in athletics, music, and publications where it was well represented.

The memorable day rolled around and at last the class of ' 42 had come of age. They were seniors . As a triumphal entry they produced the play, " Midnight. " A valuable formula was discovered and an inheritance fell into the proper hands during the course c,f the evening. After this successful play the class was justly proud and performed in many fields with great enthusiasm. The very successful• football and basketball teams numbered among their ranks many members of the class of '42 as did the choir and other organizations. In fact there was almost no limit to the activities they turned their hands to.

Color day was a gala event with streamers festooning the auditorium and an almost real monkey playing about the ropes . A circus filled the stage as the talent of the class presented a varied and unique show. Seniors of ' 42 were royalty that day, with crowns to prove it.

As the day of graduation drew near, many activities attracted the attention of departing seniors Contests were attacked, last requirements fulfilled, scholarships won, and pictures circulated. The senior party was a special event with a new angle. A square dance was staged with the participants appearing in "cords and cotton. " A floor show of talented performers from the ranks of the seniors entertained the gathering with special acts. After the picnic came graduation.

The history of the class of '42 is long to be remembered and a real vote of thanks goes to the sponsors, Mrs. Babich and Mrs . Rein, through whose untiring efforts the sojourn of the members of the class of '4 2 was made so enjoyable at Lincoln high. Never to be for -• gotten is their enthusiasm and work devoted to the plays, and class activities, so much appreciated by tongue-tied students.

Practical

Climax of their high school career comes to those few honored seniors when they learn of their membership in the national honor society. It is their reward for what they have tried to do to make the most of life at Lincoln high The students elected to this club are by no means all geniuses; they are just students who have tried to have good records in character , scholarship , service to the school , and leadership . Honor society members, however, do not e:?{perience all glory and no work . They not

Scholars

only help count ballots and manage voting places during student council and class elections, but they also help teachers in registering their sophomores. In this way underclassmen are helped over many rough spots in their curriculums by experienced seniors. Election to the society gives the members merited distinction among their fellow students and inside opportunities in business and in university , for people everywhere have learned to recognize the gold pin and what it stands for .

Acknowledgments

It's only too seldom that there ' s an opportunity to thank the people who grease the wheels and tighten the nuts and bolts that make a thing click. We've set this page aside for that purpose and we really want to give thanks to the people who have made contributions E~ch case in itself may not seem so important but all together they make a pretty big heap.

Mr. Mardis has kept an eye on things and ok'd many necessary changes, without which the Links could never have gone to press. Mr. Hackman and Miss Pound deserve warm thanks for their written contributions without which the Links would not be complete, and our heartfelt thanks go to the whole office force who have taken valuable time to look up names and produce lists which gave us better results than we could possibly have gotten by ourselves

The help Mr. Geistlinger has given deserves special mention in itself for without him much of the Links work would have had to be done on the floor in lieu of desks . The desks were provided although there was a definite shortage of all office furniture and the office itself was cleaned so carefully that hardly a paper was displaced, an important feature of an office that has precious papers everywhere.

An unexpected but welcome aid was that given by the nameless custodian who cheerfully provided names of his colleagues whose pictures were without names.

Hedwig Schultz ' s drawing of the American flag came just when we needed it most and . Hobart Hayes' cover design seemed to be <;:ustom fitted for the book .

The complete selling out of our available Links is due to the good offices of the salesmanship classes and of the Advocate To them also goes a vote of thanks from the whole board. All those printed forms that garnered the necessary information came from the hands of James S. Wallace of the printing department. Clarence H. Martin of the secretary's office, board of education, Stanley Sohl, Bob Luchsinger, Bryce Alberty, and Miss Eli zabeth Grone provided pictures which filled some empty spaces. She also contributed her skill and knowledge of picture lore on a trying occasion when we were struggling to get ' the pictures.

To all these people and many more we of the Links board extend our grateful thanks, for without them the books would be but a poor image of itself

Well, that's about it. There're a lot of things we didn't get to show you, but there's plenty of trail between the covers of this book an' it won't fade away or get dimmer in years to come as your memory may. You'll be goin' on now cause you've got to keep moving. You'll be doing a lot of different things, too. There isn't any blue print for success either but if you keep movin' and do the best you can you'll get there. This is as far as I go.

S'long.
