Links History Begins with 'The Building'

Alone at the edge of town was "The Building." Three stories high, thinly protected by a row of struggling trees, the new high school, a gaunt structure, stood in dign_ified isolation. By modern standards , it lacked architectural beauty; but to the citizens of Lincoln, 1873, it was truly magnificent - the physical manifestation of a dream .

As the community grew in number and size, so, too, did the demands on Lincoln High School. It became apparent that to maintain an acceptable educational level , expansion was imperative.

To overcome the immediate problem , an addition, offering temporary relief , was built to the north. To ease a later space deficiency , a third building was added t o the south. Neither of these measures so l ved the ever-increasing problem of space for the growing youth populatio n .

Finally, in 1915, the community approved a bond issue authorizing construction of the original section of the present Lincoln High School. This structure was soon to become too small.

In 1928, the first of two annexes built to the south , took care of the immediate need . A second addition in 1956 expanded the school to its present size so that today, Lincoln High School has evolved from a mere structure to a sprawling educational complex in the heart of the community.

Throughout the years of physical expansion and development there has also arisen within the schoo l a personality founded i n the significant tradition of scholastic and athletic excelience. It is this feeling of pride , which students hold for their s c hool , that for 100 years has kept succeeding generations of Links true to the Red and the Black.

THE ORIGINAL LINCO L N HIGH SCHOOL , 1873

Students- the Reason for a High School

Happy Students Give It Life, Laughter

STUDENTS ...

Walking together, thinking together, laughi-ng together

With the spirit of co-operation and harmony existing between them-

Students-members of a unique now generation-

Daring to question, for to question is to find truth and knowledge.

Students-dreaming elusive, fleeting, intense dreams Of abounding trust, golden visions of love, peace and understanding.

These are the students of Lincoln High

They are the nucleus around which the school revolves: In tumultuous expression of their hopefulness, their hopelessness, Of their decision, their indecision. The student still seeks a chance for personal involvement, For self-expression to be ·the individual that he is.

Reaching out for accomplishments ending in self-satisfaction,

Striving in the desire for recognition to console the ego,

The concern of this now generation Is fighting for acceptance in the fervor of today ' s society.

Students-exuberance, pride, happiness, security, a kaleidoscope of feelings

Reaching up, reaching out to the unknown.

Students identifying with their school

Student pride, spirit, making an ordinary school, extraordinary.

Early Lincoln Struggles · for Existence

Lincoln was settled partly because of its agricultural promise and partly because it offered the promise of a great industry--the production of salt. Although fortune from the Salt Basin proved to be a wi/1-o-the-wisp, the city survived and went on to become an important agricultural, professional, cultural, and contributing center.

Life in those early days was grim and serious. There was neither time nor money for frivolity. But even in these difficult times the townspeople were concerned about the welfare of the children. In 1866, the Lincoln school directors established the first public school in the "Stone Seminary," located on the site now occupied by the JournalStar Printing Co. In 1870, although three schools were in operation, the facilities were not adequate for the growing number of students - the school's population had grown to 65!

On April 4, 187'/ , an election was held and the question of bonding the district for $50,000 was given a favorable vote. At the time, material and labor were high and money was hard to come· by, but the townspeople were determined that their children would not grow up without an education.

Ground was broken for the building in April, 1872, and on the first of January, 1873 the high school building was ready for use. Arrangements were made to occupy the new school house and abandon the old. The total cost of the building was $45,000; the furniture cost over $5,000.

"The High School building is a beautiful and substantial structure, in the modern, or French style of architecture, and is sit'uated in the center of a block the whole of which is to be devoted to ornamental lawns and play grounds," reported a publication of the day.

When the school opened, the upper floors were given over to the high school and it was here that the first students of Lincoln High school and their teachers - there were two --began the first hundred years of Uncoln High history which today is being celebrated by this Centennial.

Present Schoot a Giant Step Forward

But this again was only a temporary measure. The school population continued to grow until the building , orginally constructed to hold 425, · was bursting at the seams with 1,100 students. While the controversy raged about a new and more suitable school, the old building continued to deteriorate until it was all but uninhabitable.

Finally in 1913 , the school board designated the Davenport Tract at 22nd and J Streets as the site for the new $750 ,000 Lincoln High School. In September , 1915, classes began in the new building, giving assurance of the school ' s continuing service to thP. youth of Lincoln. The future held much in store for the new "palace of learning."

Within the next decade, however, the school enrollment had again grown to the point where additional room was necessary to accommodate the increasing numbers. In 1928, the first of two additions was added to the south. A second,completed in 1956, and known as the Earl Johnson Activities Building, modernized the sports and physical-educational facilities of the school.

was soon to become one of the state's finest schools

Organization of Council Fulfills Dream

One year after the move to the new building, (1916), a provisional Student Council was established. Such an organization had been desired by the students sinc:e 1906, the year the privilege of self-government was lost. After a year of research and work, the charter for the Lincoln High School Student Council was written and the organization began its trial year.

The first Student Council consisted of twenty members: six senior boys and six senior g i rls, three junior boys and three junior girls , one sophomore boy and one sophomore girl, the editor-in-chief of The Advocate and the captains of the different athletic teams, each to serve for twelve weeks. Later , the captains and the editor were dropped : however , meetings were then and always have been open to all members of the student body Today, parallel status is maintained among the twenty-four members through equal representation from the three classes.

"Better English Week" was one of the Council's first projects in 1916. This was a week set aside to encourage the use of "clean and refined" English. In 1918, Student Council members took up the never-ending and perennial battle, its "keep-off-the-grass" campaign.

Today the hard work and planning of the Student Councils from 1920-1924 is reflected in the Lincoln H i gh Oval. The necessity of borrowing and paying for the use of the university's field for practice and play had created problems. It was a Student Council / student body triumph when Lincoln High completed plans fo r the construction of its own field. The playing area was available in 1921 ; the stadium , comp l ete with wall, bleachers , and dressing rooms was ready for use at the beginning of the 1923-1924 season.

The Council in 1952 joined the St ate and National Association of Student Councils . Since then, Lincoln Higl1 ha$ had six state presidents, four vice-presidents, and one treasurer .

Probably the greatest and most honored achievement of the Student Council came in 1957 I wher:i it fought for and won the right for the school to retain its name. Students, alumni, and many in the community were vocal in their support for the undertaking. The question of the name change arose when Lincoln Southeast was completed and Lincoln East was a distinct promise

With four public schools, some ·felt that the first school, Lincoln High, should be renamed Lincoln Central. Petitions were circulated~ Student Council, armed wrth a prepared statement, presented the school's case to the boa'rd of education which returned the verdict that Lincoln High School would remain Lincoln High School.

The school's annual variety show, Joy Night, was started and sponsored by the Student Council in 1925. Council continued to grow and so did Joy Night. Production of the variety show was given to a Central Committee twenty-eight years later.

Putting Lincoln High School in the Christmas spirit is a big job for Council members Shelley Bauer and Pat Weygint.

Spirited Tearn Support--A Links Trodition

Lincoln High School's winning teams drew a loyal following of Links, parents, and fans.

L Club, the first of the spirit organizations in Lincoln High, was established in 1924 "to encourage good sportsmanship." Its slogan: "A sport for every student and every student in a sport." "L" letters have been awarded since 1900. Today, over three thousand L-men have earned varsity letters at Lincoln High School.

The Pep Club, "Peppers," is today the largest organization in the school. When it was first organized in 1936, it was limited to a small and very select group of senior girls. The club became more democratic with the change in 1951 when all senior girls were allowed membership.

For many years cheerleading at Lincoln High was limited to boys only. Since 1953, girls have cheered the athletic contestants on to victory.

100 Years + 10 Sports

Sports have played a large part in the development and growth of spirit, pride, and unity in Lincoln High School in the last 100 years. Recorded sports history began in 1891 with the first football team which was formed by a no-coach, sandlot group of sports-minded boys.

As the only high school in the city, Lincoln High's opponents were few and far between. One of its early games was played with the university squad , now the nation's number one football team and at the time state champions. However, Liricoln High School won the contest.

Over an eighty-year period, the Sons of the Red and Black have earned one hundred and seven state championships. Lincoln High ' s football team earned twenty-five. Track , the next sport, introduced in 1899, won seventeen titles; basketball (1901), fourteen; baseball (1922), six; swimming (1922), eleven; golf (1931), seventeen; tennis (1934), nine; wrestling (1949), one ; gymnastics (1952), seven; and cross-country introduced in 1954, none.

The highest honor a Lincoln High senior athlete can earn is the Harry Sidney Dobbins Award, given in memory of Harry Dobbins, a student at Lincoln High who died the summer before his senior year. His parents made the award available to perpetuate his name in "the school he l oved."

107 State Titles

A girls athletic association at Lincoln High School was formed in 1919 under the name "Olympians." The chief pastime and most popular activity at the time was roller skating. •

Debate? Ecology?

Clubs Reflect Interests

Lincoln High School has always encouraged students to organize clubs that further their careers, or help them to serve the community. Whether it be ecology, astronomy, or business, students' special interests are recognized.

The earliest clubs centered around debate , the first extracurricular activity. Some topics that attracted the debaters in 1886 were "the Annexation of Cuba" and "Women's Suffrage." In 1903, an official Lincoln High Debating Society was formed; it later took several state titles.

In the early years, boys organized secret fraternities which were outlawed in the early 1900's.

The American Field Service (AFS) was introduced to Lincoln High in 1951. Lincoln High School has since sent students overseas in an Americans Abroad program.

Several clubs were formed in the 60's. Future Teachers of America , DECA, Caduceus, Business, and Interact. The most recent organization, which reflects contemporary concern with ecology, is the Committee on Combating Environmental Pollution.

Above the roar of the crowd came voices f r om the press box.

Advocate, Links Give 'Money's Worth'

Fresh off the press in March, 1895, came the first issue of the Lincoln High School newspaper , The Advocate. Published monthly in pamphlet form, it was more a magazine than a newspaper. The present format of The Advocate was adopted by Lincoln High School in 1917.

The first Lincoln High School annuals were $enior issues of The Advocate. In these early editions each class gave a biased account of its achievements, activities, and outstanding successes earned during the year. Every class had a yell , a color, a flower , and a motto.

"Get your money's worth" was the motto of the Class of ' 01, sophomores at the time -the Lincoln High School Annual for 1899 was printed. Of their girl members they wrote, " . .. sophomore girls , there are no others in the school to be compared with them. Of course the Senior girls are fairly good looking but the work in the chemistry laboratory always injures their complexions."

H was not until 1917 that the first yearbook , The Links , was published in the form in which it is recognized today.

Traditional Ceremonies Mark Years End

Seniors look forward to two special year-end events: Color Day and Commencement.

, Color Day, one of Lincoln High school's oldest and most honored traditions, originated · in 1916. Developed by the Student Council, it was a two-day celebration designed to honor graduating seniors. The corridors were decorated with red and black; in the afternoon, school was dismissed and students. led by the band, paraded O Street.

Today at Lincoln High School, Color Day still honors members of the graduating class. During the ceremony, in addition to the distribution of educational scholarships and grants, the most talented seniors are recognized for achievements in special fields.

Annual awards presented at Color Day are the Harry Sidney Dobbins (1913); Scholarship Key (1917); Lincoln Symphony Award (1951); Drama Award (1959); the Ned Prucha Award (1960); Arion Award (1960); .. John Philip Sousa Award (1960); Journalism Key (1963); Art Award (1963); and the Outstanding Sports Award for Girls (1970).

Graduation is the final and most meaningful event: the time when the senior--reluctantly eager -acknowledges that today's sorrow leads to tomorrow's fulfillment.

Individual Excellence Continues To Challenge

During the high school years, the student strives to extend his individual growth in many ways: educationally, socially, and emotionally. He is not unique in his · reach i ng for these goals: they have been the continuing objectives of Lincoln High School students throughout the history of the school.

Lincoln High School has always offered a fine academic program. Although the curriculum of 100 years ago was limited when compared to today ' s, at the time it was the best the community could provide.

At first, only two courses of study were available: an English Course , consisting of arithmetic, history, rheto r ic, and phi l osophy (for those who did not intend to go on to college) , and a classical course (designed to meet the needs of those planning to enter the university ) which centered around study of La.tin, geometry, and philosophy.

Although these courses were restrictive ~ they provided the student of the late 1800's with a basic knowledge that enabled him to function fairly adequately within the existing society. Today, Lincoln Hi gh Schoo l offers a much wider range of

course offerings tor the student of the 1900's who must function in a far more sophisticated world. To meet these needs, new courses are constantly designed to help fulfill the multiplic i ty of demands.

In order to meet the requirements of each new generation, the program at Lincoln High School has undergone many changes and adaptations. Today , course selections are more individualized than they have ever been in the past: the student may choose courses to further develop a special ability or those related to a particular interest.

In addition, ·the student has a voice in developing the curriculum. He is encouraged to present his ideas to school administrators concerning areas of subject matter he feels are relevant to his world and therefore should be included. By allowing such participation, the course offerings are continually being advanced and modernized.

W ith the dawn of a second century of service to youth, Lincoln High School offers a comprehensive course of study that allows any student who really wants to learn , the educational opportunities to achieve self-satisfaction through individual excellence.

Superintendent John Prasch , has the responsibility of general control and direction of the Lincoln Public Schools.

Blessed Are The Links

" A truly dynamic society is future o_riented, and that ' s as it should be. In such a society the danger for youth is that they may fail to see the importance of the past and thus lose the advantages and the important lessons of human experience. A centennial celebration provides the opportunity for a look backward which we all need from time to time.

"A backward look at the hundred-year history of Lincoln High teaches us a lesson in the importance of strong institutions in the development of our society. The contributions of this school in terms of the thousands of people whose educations were advanced, is immeasurable . Moreover, there has never been a time in history when the continuation of the work of this institution has been more important. Blessed are the Links who inherit such a strong tradition on which to build."

Who Inherit Tradition

"On April 4, 1871, the Lincoln Board of Education voted $50,000 to construct the first building to house Lincoln High School. By this act they began a chain of events that has had historic significance in cultural and educational benefits for the more than thirty-two thousand graduates who will. have graduated at the time that the one-hundredth year of service is concluded ,June 4, 1971.

"The Centennial Class which is publishing the Lincoln High School Annual this year continues a record of distinguished accomplishment. Little noticed is the fact that many of these young graduates will spend nearly half their lives in the Twenty-First Century. The accelerating pace o f technology will offer more decisions, more problems, and more benefits than in the eight hundred lifetimes th.at have preceded their adult careers.

"If a group of young people in pioneer days had the adventurous experience of opening new frontiers in a physical sense, certainly the next exciting decades will furnish many more frontiers in science, . art, and many other aspects of life. These students will carry away a bit of Lincoln High School history, tradition, friendship, loyalty, and knowledge. They are probably better equipped to face this future than any precedinn class , but perhaps poorer equipped in the sense that the unknown is so immense and the changes will be so abrupt.

"I know that I express the deep appreciation of the faculty for the opportunity which we all have in serving a growing, vibrant group of young people. They have our best wishes for a productive and enriched life."

Language Mastery: Key to Understanding

To augment the student's skill in the art of communication as well as to acquaint him with the beauty of the language are the prime objectives of the Lincoln High School English Depart~ent. Because familiarity with English is the basis of understanding in all areas it is important that he learn to listen intelligently, to read with perception, and to express himself effectively and correctly, both in written and oral composition.

By making intelligent use of the principles of literature and language included in the Nebraska Curriculum and i n its adaptations, the student is provided with the materials necessary to help him learn to think for himself and to communicate his i9eas through the use of the language.

Elective courses in dramatics and journalism allow the student with special abilities and. aptitudes to develop his interests. Through participation in drama and speech the student recognizes the need for clear vocal expression.

Journalism classes not only provide the opportunity to analyze the news media, but also to accurately report and write the news. These curricular-related act i vities enable the student to extend his educational experiences far beyond the limitations o f the classroom.

History Relates Past, Present, To Future

The main objective of the Social Studies Department is to show the student the relationship between the past and the present and its relevance to the future. Through social-concept courses, the student becomes aware of local, national, and international concerns, and is encouraged to develop an interest in and a willingness to search for solutions of recurring social problems.

Twentieth Century Amer i ca , a modern course concerned with the study of contemporary social and world problems, places emphasis on the present : World and American History classes stress the importance of the past.

Afro-American History was intr6duced as a separate course last year. It emphasizes the historical role played by the American Negro and his contribution to the nation's culture.

New Approach Stirs Interest In Language

The laboratory, films, and dialogue study offered by the Lincoln High School Foreign Language Department provides the student with the opportunity to gain a basic understanding of his choice: French, German, or Spanish.

Through a combination of structure drills, reading, and conversation, the student becomes aquainted with his second tongue, eventually becoming efficient in reading, writing, and speaking this new language. In some advanced classes, he may take advantage of program-type materials which allows him to progress at his own rate.

The language lab provides the student with the opportunity to hear a variety of native voices. He learns to listen, understand, and imitate these new patterns. The lab allows the teacher to assist the student in correcting his pronunciation and sentence structure. In addition, the student may tape, play back, and work on his own skills.

An introduction to foreign customs and cultures is a part of language study. Included in this phase are singing, dancing ~ and native cookery.

Fine Arts Emphasize Expression, Creativity

Through the media of art and music, the Fine Arts Department of Lincoln High School provides an opportunity for the student to express himself ' and to explore the meaning of beauty.

To develop a love of music, a skill in listening, singing or playing an instrument, are the objectives of the Music Department. The vocallyinclined student begins his musical study as a member of sophomore glee. In the following year, he further develops his vocal skills in the junior glee. If he has talent and interest, he may, as a senior, become a member of one of the special organiz.ations: Ennead, Boys Octet, or Madrigals.

Included in the Music Department program is individual and group instrumental instrucUon. Prep and advanced bands, and orchestra are open to the student with talent in these fields. These groups along with Stage Band, perform at school functions and community events.

A major aim of the Art Department is to develop within the student , an aesthetic sensitivity, a sense of personal i nvolvement, increased technical skills, and a knowledge of various art concepts and materials. The student may express himself through painting, carving, drawing, and sculpting.

Number-Happy World Calls for Proficiency

The goals of the Mathematics Department of Lincoln High School are to teach the student to think for himself and to realize that there are many solutions to a given problem. The student is provided with the opportunity to discover these new ideas inductively, although proof is emphasized. It is also important that the student learn to apply the appropriate principles to any problem he may encounter. In this way, the subject matter becomes more practical, interesting, and individu alized.

The mathematics curriculum includes one semester of secondary mathematics for students non college-bound. Here, emphasis is placed on strengthening basic skills and demonstrating the practical value of math.

First-year algebra is offered to those who did not take it in junior high; geometry and secondyear algebra are taken by a majority of collegebound students. Trigonometry, analytical geometry, and pre-cal are offered to provide a solid background for college calculus.

Science Important

In Today's Living

It is the aim of the Science Department at Lincoln High School 'to provide the student with information benef i cial and necessary to his wellbeing. Because science plays a major part in life today, the department tries to instruct the student in the basic principles of investigation and to promote his curiosity in the world about him so he may learn to cope with his future.

Biology deals with the study of life, beginning with the cell and progressing through the plant and animal kingdoms . Physiology centers around the anatomy and the functions of man.

Chemistry involves the study of substance structure , the changes occurring in a reaction , and the application of formulas . Experimentation is a major approach used in chemistry and physics.

In the study of physics, the student becomes aware of and learns to respect the various forces which · are at work in his world. He studies the properties of matter and the influence of energy.

The Business Education Department aims are to give students basic understandings and skills that will be helpful in all areas of life, and to build competence and accuracy for all business education majors to a point where a student has a marketable skill. The department offers three courses: stenographic, clerical, and distributive.

Training in the stenographic field prepares the student to become an efficient, competent office worker. The student in this area needs a wide, well-rounded background in social studies, math and the language arts, each very important to the proficiency which stenography demands.

Students in the clerical field study filing, office machines , typing 1 and mail handling procedure to prepare them for this work.

Distributive education is for those students who plan to enter the sales field. In this department, they have the unique opportunity of integrating classroom study with on-the-job-training and DECA Club activities. Students registering for this class must have outside work for a minimum of five hours per week during the senior year

The student in Industrial Arts gains an understanding of the aspects of industry and the ·principles involved in related occupational fields. Here he is given background information in the subject matter, is instructed in manipulative skills, and prepared to enter the trades program.

The Preparatory Trades course emphasizes the development of skills in the use of tools and machines related to specific practices. It is the objective o'f this course to prepare the student to enter a specific occupational field.

Services Essential to School's Functioning

To keep a school the size of Lincoln High functioning smoothly, the skills of many persons are required. Details must be coordinated if the needs of the school are to be met so that learning may continue through each day. These duties are delegated to special supportive staffs.

Keeping records , dispensing supplies, and accounting for student moneys are the duties of the clerical staff. Checking pupil attendance, providing stenographic services, assisting in the l ibrary, and preparing bulletin boards are but a part of the many responsibilities of teacher aides.

Maintenance of equipment is a major duty of _ the custodial staff Routine-but important-jobs include keeping the campus and building clean · and staffing the school for all after-hour functions.

It is the responsibility of the cafeteria staff to provide adequate, nutritional lunches for the student body and the school's personnel. In order to prepare the food items necessary to satisfy the _ hungry population, their work begins at 7:00 a.m.

Counseling Coordinates Student's Total Plan

A valuable area of education at Lincoln High School is the Counseling Department, which strives to achieve the best possible guidance program for the student, not only academically, but individually and socially as well.

This objective is accomplished in part by having the student work with the same counselor for all three years. In this way, student and counselor attain a closer relationship; the counselor is able to gain a better understanding of a student's problems , his capabilities, his goals, and by this means is able to better evaluate the possibility of his reaching these goals. Knowing the student for this longer period of time also enables the counselor to better aid him with recommendations, college plans, and job opportunities.

To help the student adapt to a new school situation, to endow him with a desire to learn and to motivate him to use his potentiality to the best of his ability, is the prime concern of the sophomore guidance class.

Grade eleven counseling is devoted to studying , individual and group behavior to help the student to better understand himself and the society in which he lives.

The senior year centers around the individual: it attempts to help him formulate a concept of himself that will serve him when he enters the world of work or continuing education.

Still True! Life You Save May Be Own

With more and more drivers on the road, it is essential that safe-driving techniques be taught. The Driver Education Department at Lincoln High School, estab l ished in 1948 to meet a growing need, makes use of the most · modern training equipment and offers instruction in three fields : classroom, simulation , and driving experience .

Classroom discussion centers around learning the rules and laws of the road: it also emphasizes the need for the student to accept the responsibility and the importance of safe driving

Simulation provides a practical method-under controlled conditions-of introducing the would-be-driver to the mechanics of driving.

The final phase is actual driving. Here the student puts into practice his knowledge of road laws and driving techniques he has learned and practiced. To fulfill the requirements of the course, he must have mastered the skills and completed the in-car requirement.

Mr. Lyle Weyand , chairman of the Drivers Education Departmen t, explains the operation of the simulator to a student.

Phys Ed Stresses Physical Well-Being

The development of a student's physical condition is as important as the mental well-being stressed by the many other courses at Lincoln High. The Physical Education Department realizes this and promotes an excellent program, hoping the student will discover the meaning of "fitness" in addition to enjoying the physical activities.

A wide variety of sports is open to the student. He may choose to participate in any one of the several competitive fields or in one of the intramural programs offered by the department. In 1970-71, Lincoln High organized girls competitive swimming, and a track team, which allowed them to compete and letter in interscholastic sports.'

This year, a student, after taking the required two semesters of physical education, could elect a third. Fulfillment of requirements next year will be based on a different system.

Health Education is also included in the fitness program. This class emphasizes the importance of emotional, physical, and mental wellbeing. This is a one semester course for juniors.

Seniors Hold Unique Position Among Grads

• t The senior this year at Lincoln High School has had the unique distinction of being part of the Centennial Class of 1971. Starting with the first graduating class in 1874, which was composed of five members - four girls and one boy - Lincoln High School graduates have compiled an impressive record of service , not only to the school but a/so to the community It is this tradition of excellence which this class has helped to further.

That first Lincoln High School gradu·ating class also introduced the theme: "Go l den Links in the Chain of Progress." How very appropriate this now seems and, when one looks back over these last one hundred years, he recognizes the outstanding contributions that all the past "Links" have made to this continuing "chain of progress."

In his three years at Lincoln High, the senior

has had a chance to participate in mar;,y and varied activities and to choose from a wide selection qt courses designed to increase his knowledge. He has learned that rewards are plentiful for "a job well done" and that means for improvement are equally abundant. He has carried on a tradition of excellence in citizenship and scholarship. Now, at graduation, as he stands on the threshold of adulthood, he will find that opportunities are still unlimited for one who sets a goal for himself and ref uses to accept second best.

We, the Centennial Seniors, have inherited the proud traditions of those al umni who, because they refused to believe that something was impossible, made it possible. It is now up to us to set as fine an example for the second hundred years as has been set for us in the first hundred.

L. H. S. FORMAL OPENING - MARCH 8, 1898

Cherished TraditionS Continue as Eight

Rick Wade Jane Levine

The finest tribute Lincoln High School can accord a graduating senior is to present him one of the school's traditional and cherished awards in recognition of his special achievements. In this, the school's one-hundredth anniversary year, Lincoln High School takes pride in naming to its Centennial Roll of Honor, eight seniors whose works and contributions mark them as outstanding.

The present tradition of recognizing excellence began in 1913, when the Harry Sidney Dobbins Award was established in memory of a Lincoln High School student who died the summer before his senior year. Since then the award has been reserved for the young man who has best combined athletic ability and scholastic competence. This year's recipient is Rick Wade. His grade average of 2.72, together with his athletic record which includes one reserve and two varsity letters in football, basketball, and baseball, has earned him this honor. He was a member of L Club and Interact, a Homeroom Representative, vice-president of his senior class, and treasurer of National Honor Society.

Recognition of the top scholar was initiated in 1917. First awarded as the Fred Gardner Scholarship Medal, it became the Lincoln High School Scholarship Key Award in 1926. Jane Levine, with a perfect 1.00 grade average, is the 1971 Scholarship Key winner. However, Jane, who earned thirty-seven superior ratings, did not limit her school years to scholastic pursuits alone. Her record reveals that she participated in a wide variety of activities, including COCEP , Mummers, Human Relations Council, and Joy Night. She was a reserve and varsity Cheerleader, news editor of The Advocate, was a National Merit semifinalist, and a recipient of a University of Nebraska fouryear Regents Scholarship. She was elected to National Honor Society and ranked in the upper three percent of her class.

The Lincoln Symphony Award, which recognizes superior musicianship, was first given in 1951. The musical versatility of this year's winner, Robert Snider, extends to all percussion instruments and piano. For each of his three years in

high school, he was a member of the Lincoln High School Orchestra, Stage Band, and Advanced Band. For three years he provided the snare drum accompaniment to the Call to Colors, which opens each assembly. He earned a place in both the All-State Band and All-State Orchestra. Other musical organizations with which he was affiliated include the Lincoln Youth Symphony and the Lincoin Symphony. He was a member of Orpheons, Mummers, and Future Teachers clubs, and was an active participant in Joy Night. He was elected to National Honor Society.

The Lincoln Education Association Scholarship, which carries a tuition grant, was established in 1954. This award is given to the graduating senior who is judged to show the greatest potentiality for the field of teaching. Mary O'Boyle, the 1971 winner, was a Homeroom Representative, a member of Student Council, and president of the Senior Class. Her other activities included Mimes, Coed Counselors, Peppers, and Joy Night participation. Mary was elected to membership in National Honor Society.

The Drama Award, first given in 1959, honors the young man or woman who has shown the greatest development in the field of theater arts. David Huffman was named this year's "Oscar" winner. He played a lead in Our Town and was in the cast of Arsenic and Old Lace. His musical ability earned him an alternate singing lead in the double-cast production cf the Centennial Opera, Paint Your Wagon, and a place in the Boys Octet. David played in botli the Lincoln High School Stage Band and Orchestra for three years, and in the Lincoln Youth Symphony for four. For three years, the sound of his trumpet playing the Call to Colors has opened ali assemblies. A Regents Alternate, David was elected to National Honor Society and, scholastically, ranked in the upper three percent of the class.

The Ned Prucha Award was established in 1960 to honor the memory of a 1958 graduate who, in 1959, lost his life in a fire while vacationing in Stalheim r Norway. The recipient of this award is the young person who scores highest in the

Again this year, three seniors won these coveted awards 1 four-year Regents Schola r ships , as a result of their t1igl1 scores on the SAT. They are Rhonda Eno, William Deats, and Jane Levine.

The Lincoln High School Journalism Key , the most recent of the special awards, dates back to 1964 The Key goes to the young person working in the area of publications who not only is talented in this spec i alized field of writing, but who has demonstrated the dedication and "staying power" necessary for success in this demand i ng work. Patti Kontos, the 1971 recipient, has given many extra hours of her time not only for work on The Advocate and The Links , for whi.ch she was the activities ed i tor, but also for ass i stance in the research for the history written tor the ·school on the occasion of its Centenn i a l.

Underclassmen Link Past, Future Centuries

The underclassman of this, the Centennial year, occupies a un i que position experienced by no other student in the history of Lincoln High School. As the first century closes and the second begins, he is the "Link" that ties the two together.

As today ' s sophomore or junior becomes tomorrow's senior, he must assume a new responsibility- the future. The past has shown that the future belongs to those who prepare for it. As an underclassman of Lincoln High School, the student has been mentally oriented to the lessons of the past; he is prepared to help resolve today ' s problems for a better tomorrow i n 'lthich his community, nation, and world may benefit.

But it all starts here in Lincoln High School. Here, the fundamentafs of education are applied in these two very important years. Here, the student is given a chance to study and understand the past. Here, he is motivated and encouraged to take advantage of the many and varied offerings of the school so that his fullest potentiality may be reached and he will be better able to cope with his individual and social adult world.

The underclassman must not neglect the past : he must utilize the best of it , but he must also learn to apply himself with enthusiasm and dedication to the future to insure an equally remarkable second century.

COUNTY GOVERNMENT DAY

The year 1947 saw Lincoln High School participating in the pilot program of County Government Day. Through this activity it is hoped that the student will gain a better understanding of the workings of county government. The late Robert Simmons, Chief Justice of the Nebraska Supreme Court, originated the program.

The Citizenship Committee of the American Legion continues to promote and sponsor this annual event. Juniors only are eligible to run for the county offices; elections are conducted in the same manner as those held in Lancaster County. Miss Wilhelmina Johnson, World Studies teacher, sponsors this event.

COUNTY GOVERNMENT: ROW 1: Highstreet, Place, Torgler, Weimer, Lind, Van Osdol, Nebesniak. ROW 2: Wagner, Weaver, Sayre, Clore , LeBaron, Trahan , David, Kahm, Walter, and Osborn.

On Way to Senior Status and Graduation

The patio offers a moment of quiet relaxation in the sun.

Sophomore Cheryl Neely is bewildered by the first-day-shuffle of the new school year.

Sophomore Charles Baldwin tries to convince senior Kathy Burback that sophomores are coming in taller every year.

Sophomore Year Affords Valuable Insights

The incoming sophomore faces a new situation which will offer him a variety of experiences. Here continues the individual's basic knowledge he will need to accomplish what he wants in his lifetime. It will require hard work but during his three years at Lincoln High School he will gain valuable insight.

A personalized program for each student has always been the school's prime objective ·in preparing him to adjust to the community. In Lincoln High he meets new teachers and students and is challenged by the courses he selects. The courses may become burdensome, but his stay in school is all part of the process of becoming a constructive and a contributing member in today's society.

When the culmination - graduation - is reached, he may look back to his first year and remember his disappointments and accomplishments. If he can truthfully say he is able "to meet the world head on," it all started here when he was "just a soph."

Sophomore Class officers are (standing) Wayne Crarnm, pres- • ident; Mike Meyer, treasurer; (seated) Unda Porter, secretary; and Marsha Mar, vice-president.

Sophomore Pamela Morrow finds the library an ideal place to · catch up on her homework.

Stimulating Associations Enlarge One's World

One-hundred years ago outlets for a student's participation were limited: if he had no aptitude or interest in any of the few non-academic fields available to him, his relationship to his school, other than through academics , was restricted.

Debating societies dominated the club roster. To supplement the schedule, a monthly " rhetorical" was required of the early student: he had to present an essay or declamation. This " activity," about which he had no choice , was dreaded.

Music has always been a popular activity. Vocal music fared better than instrumental, with singing groups being established in the earliest times. Smaller, more specialized groups came later .

Instrumental music did not come into the picture until 1910, when a fifteen-piece , self-moti- · vated , un-un i formed band appeared for the first time. Organization of the orchestra came about in 1911. It was also a self-starter group.

Drama has had an official place at Lincoln High for a long time. The opportunity to express himself on-stage has always been available to the would-be actor with ability and desire.

At times during the school year, different groups present programs such as plays and musical performances. Through this means, the student is able to satisfy not only his own ·inner need to perform but to use his talents to benefit others.

Because of the number of students involved either in choruses or other musical groups, these activities play an important role in the student's life. Today, the Links band, ninety-six strong , marches in professional and uniformed precision. Stage pert ormances provide showcases where the student may display his musical talents.

Today, the lite that the student leads is centered around the school and its diversiform activities. Open to him are special interest and socialawareness clubs that develop him as an individual, and service organizations that increase his value as a concerned member of his community.

Today, the student has a far better opportunity for a rounded education and life because of the functions that the school has integrated into the curriculum. The activities program that it offers to the present-day student as compared to that available at first has brought about a realistic socfal/academic balance in the -student's life.

LHS PRODUCTION, KING LEAR, MARCH 28, 1924

'Putting

It All Together' By, For Students

"To foster the sentiment for law and order in the school, to provide opportunities for student cooperation in the internal government of the school, to provide worthy student activities, and to promote the general welfare of the school" was and continues to be the objective of the Lincoln High School Student Council.

Functioning as an all-year-round organization, before the doors of the school are open to students, the Council gives a tea for the faculty and sponsors a Kick-Oft Dance for all students. Later, the annual Homecoming Dance is its responsibility. The second annual film festival with the oldies (W. C. Fields, Keystone Cops), open forums, and "Cig Week" were other projects.

Working for the student, Honor Passes have been made available to those who are dependable, and can study without supervision. The pass frees the holder to move from one area to another.

This year, each of the three classes is equally represented with eight members. Councils service project was collecting clothes for a needy family in Kentucky. Mrs. Jean Fenner, Mrs. Rae Marie Haws , and Mrs. Monte Thompson guided the actions of the Student Council.

STUDENT COUNCIL: ROW 1: Mar, second-semester treasurer; Raymer, Shanks, Anderson, Bauer , lienhart. ROW 2: Renker, Lehman, Dunbar, Dinges, second-semester secretary; Miller, first-semester treasurer; Shrader, first-semester secretary, second-semester vice-president; Babcock, Weygint. ROW 3: Cariotto, Arrigo, Springer, first-semester president; Magnuson, Johnson, Taylor, and Dutton, first-semester vice-president, sec- ond-semester president.

Peg Keelan, Dale Springer, and Sue Dutton decorate the traditional Christmas tree placed in the student lounge by the Council, adding joy for students during the festive season.

Holding the "Go Irish" cake baked by Jo Shrader, Mark Cabrales was announced the winner of the Mr. lrishistible contest; runners-up were Ralph Henderson (left) and Harry Frye The proceeds of this girl-not-talk-to-boy-day went to charity.

Open forums held in the Little Theater give the student a chance to sound-off on his beefs about the school. Student Council members are on hand to answer and discuss questions; representatives of the administration are often present.

Sue Dutton , Student Council president , displays the plaque presented to Links during halftime of t he Lincoln High-Southeast basketball game. A tribute f rom the three other Lincoln public high schools , it honors Lincoln High School Centennial.

Everyone grabbed a shoe to choose his next dancing partner at the Sock Hop , a dance with the 50's and 60's flavor.

Homeroom Reps Direct Class Action

Theoretically, the link between the individual and Student Council is the Homeroom Representative, who provides a means through which the student expresses his opinions, gives suggestions, and makes constructive criticisms. Today, however , the government of the school is administered by the Council; the affairs of the classes are the responsibility of the Homeroom Reps.

A representative is elected in each of the guidance classes; from these groups, each class elects its officers. Class sponsors help supervise service and money-making projects.

Many tasks are undertaken by the Senior Class during its finale: the selection of the class gift, the preparation for Senior Week , and the organization of the commencement exercise.

Planning and raising funds to support the Junior-Senior Prom is the assignment of the junior Reps. Homeroom Representatives set up all the committees for this special social event.

The Class of 1973 spends its time in various school and community projects.

Working together, Senior Homeroom Reps weigh and discuss the different ideas that have been suggested for a class gi'ft.

Friendly Links Extend Welcome to Students

The organization which welcomes girls new to Lincoln High School, Coed Counselors, came into existence in 1951, when Miss Dorcas Weatherby, girls ' advisor, saw the need for such a club. Twenty-five girls made up the charter membership. Until 1954, only senior girls were eligible to serve in this organization then known as Senior Co-Ed Counselors.

Today, the fifty-four junior and senior girls involved in Coed Counselors act as "Big Sisters." They help sophomores and other girls new to Lincoln High become acquainted with and welladjusted to school life Both counselor and counsellee benefit from the association.

The Annual Fall Tea, first held in 1953, is planned for the Lincoln High School Cafeteria the Sunday before the beginning of school.

Get-acquainted parties and informal neighborhood meetings are held during the summer, giving the girls a chance to familiarize themselves with the traditions of Lincoln High School.

The incurred tea expenses are paid by club members who work at money-making projects. ·

Advising the activities of Coed Counselors were the sponsors Miss Frances Buell, Miss Jamesine Bourke, and Mrs. Helen Flanagan.

The annual tea acquaints new students with Lincoln High.

Coed Counselors officers Sheryl Loos , secretary; Janet Behrens, president ; Pat Petersen , vice-president ; and Linda Schwartzkopf , treasurer; helped prepare for the tea.

Interact: Youthful Vitality in Postive Action

Interact, sponsored jointly by the downtown Rotary Club and Lincoln High School, was organized in the fall of 1969. The initiative for starting this club came from Rotary. Interact, a youth association international in scope, involves some sixty participating countries.

bell-ringing champions.

A committee of Rotary members exercises supervision and control over all activities, programs, and policies of the Interact Club. Neither the club nor its members has rights or privileges with respect to the sponsoring group.

Open to all male students in good standing, Interact provides an organization that benefits the student, the school, and the community .

Throughout the year , the activities and events of the local Interact club, headed by Mr. Gerald Gruber, are many and varied. The major accomplishment of the group this year was the sponsorship of the All-School Carnival on April 30. This is the second year for this event which was termed, "overwhelmingly successful." Booths and displays of clubs and classes, attracted large numbers of carnival goers.

Service projects performed by Interact include assisting the Rotary Club during Youth Appreciation Week, helping the J.C.'s with Honey Sunday, and ringing bells for the Salvation Army.

Career breakfasts held every six weeks are a popular and social activity. Experiences disclosed by guest ~peakers make the club's objectives more relevant.

Student, Faculty Decisions Bring Assemblies

Scheduling educational, promotional , and entertaining programs for the Lincoln High School student body is the responsibility of the Assembly Committee. It is composed of eight students representing the en t ire student body, and faculty members who include Mrs. Kathleen Sayre, chairman; Mr. John Bruce, Mr. Alva Cavett , Mrs. Jean Fenner, Mr. Joe Folsom, Miss Dorthea Gore, and Mrs. Judy Thompson.

Traditional assemblies such as Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter bring in community leaders to speak and make use of the musical talent within the school. Entertaining presentation are offered when well-known groups or individuals are available. Pep assemblies are held for each home football and basketball game. Study areas are provided during these rallies for the student who does not desire to attend.

ASSEMBLY COMMITTEE: SEATED: Brauer, Auers. ROW 1: Lehman, Minard, Magnuson, Taylor, and Lake.

"Up, up with people, you meet them wherever you are." The Assembly Co~mittee brought these " People" to the students.

Library Growth, Objective of Committee

Organized in 1951, the Library Committee was formed to promote student interest in using the facilities of the library. The responsibility of the committee is to help in the selection of reading material in order that the student may have the necessary resources he needs.

The duties of the group have been extended to include setting up timely showcases and displays and informational bulletin boards which may be seen in the library and in the halls.

Under the sponsorship of Mrs. Ruth Siefkes, librarian, the committee tries to recommend materal that will have value to the student.

Discovering that there are many fine books to choose from, Susan Lind and Rita Hansen find one to meet their needs.

Using the references available in the library , Rhonda Eno and Sue McCrown realize it's easy to write research papers.

Library Committee members Irene Pester, Debbie Schnell, and Andra Barnett learn that the globe and slides available in the library can be helpful in locating countries in the news.

DEPS Coordinate All-Inclusive Program

DEPS (Developing, Education, Promotion, and Social) provides a means for its members to take an active interest in planning for meetings and leisure activities as well as learning how to cooperate with others. Since its beginning in 1969 v this organization's membership has grown four times its original number.

Members determine the success of the club; Mrs. Harriet Cross, Mrs. Ruby Grell, and Mr. Marvin Rader act only in an advisory capacity.

Halloween and Thanksgiving parties, Christmas and Valentine Day dances, and a picnic in May honoring the club's graduating seniors are annual events. At Easter, the group mal<es baskets to distribute to nursing homes.

Actively working to help in Lincoln High School's Centennial, DEPS have been busy with the mail. Stuffing envelopes and mailing brochures have been the club's contributions.

DEPS: ROW 1: C. Peek, vice-president; Sweem, president. ROW 2: Orr, Couch, Powers, Rupert, Sanchez , Hill, Barton , O'Connor. ROW 3: Koch, Minshall, Page~ P Peek, and Bodfield.

_ Traffic Safety Awareness Can Save Links

Developing better driving habits through awareness of road hazards and by taking all necessary safety precautions, Traffic Safety Council, formed in 1966, helps any Lincoln High School student who wishes to become a better driver .

In October, five students attended the Governor's Youth Safety Conference. Selling concessions at football and basketball games, the organization earned money to send five representatives to the National Safety Conference in Warrensburg , Missouri. It is the goal of the Council to be represented again this summ·er.

Another project undertaken was active participation in 'Mission 100,' a program organized by a state safety committee through which it was hoped that the Nebraska highway mortality rate could be reduced by one hundred deaths.Pamphlets containing the requirements to pass the state's car-inspection were placed on all cars parked in both the student and faculty lots. Mr. Harold Slaight supervised the group.

TRAFFIC SAFETY COUNCIL: ROW 1: Batten, Moore, vice-presiden t; Behrens , secretary; Poole ROW 2: Workman , president ; Schaffer, treasurer; and Magnuson.

Mimes Keeps Alive Interest in Dramatics

The society known as Mimes was founded at Lincoln High School in 1932. This club, open to sophomores, helps to stimulate an early interest in dramatics to encourage greater participation in all phases of dramatic art at the upperclass level,

Tryouts to determine membership are held at the beginning of the school year when individuals or small groups perform before the sponsors and officers of the preceding year. For those interested

only in the technical aspects of theater, personal interviews are arranged.

Meeting in the Little Theater, groups within the club gain experience by presenting humorous and dramatic skits before the rest of the group; an individual may also display his talent.

Mrs. Jane Cleveland and Mrs. Virginia Safford sponsored the organization this year.

The play portrays the critical moment in a young girl's (Isabel's) life when she moves from girlhood to womanhood. During this trying interval, Isabel ' s belief in a ghost and that the dead lead happy lives is almost enough to jeopardize her · own safety on earth. An inspector, representing the powers of government and science, is powerless to help her.

'Century Showcase' Illuminates Links Talent

Lincoln High School Proudly Presents r?MU~ .!f~

One hundred years in the making! The fortysixth performance of Joy Night was staged April 16 and 17 in the Lincoln High School Auditorium.

Established in 1925 by the Student Council, the annual variety show features talents of school organizations and of individuals, as solos ·or in combination acts. The Council continued to sponsor the show until 1953; however , in that year, it relinquished this duty and turned the production over to a Central Committee. This group, composed of faculty members and students , determines the theme, conducts tryouts, and selects the acts that make up the show.

Throughout the years themes have reflected the trends of the times. The acts have been a conglomeration of youthful ideas. The first production , Joy Breezes, was said to be "imaginative and timely." ·The biggest year for Joy Night was 1950 when a total of seventy-five acts vied for positions in the show; the 1971 production concentrated on vocal and instrumental music. Showcase closed the ,Centennial theater season.

Boys Octet, Ennead:

'Let Us Entertain You'

To be able to sing well is perhaps a dream everyone has had at one ti me or another, but for very few does this dream become a realistic experience. Two groups composed of talented singers are Girls Ennead and Boys Octet.

The older of the two, the Ennead , was organized in 1928 under the name of Girls Octet "to fill a definite need in Lincoln High School for a small'." er group to furnish entertainment for various clubs and organizations of the city, " according to the 1929 Links. Its name was changed to Ennead in 1969 when another member was added.

Although a quartet was harmonizing as early as 1887, it wasn't until 1952 that the present Boys Octet came into existence.

Under the direction of Miss Dorthea Gore and • Mr. Ivan Caldwell , the groups perform for civic clubs, church groups, and oth~~s requesting them.

Alan Ashelford waits impatiently for Cindy Lehman, as she takes "one more look" before they go on to an engagement.

Assortment of Songs

Attracts Listener's Ear

Since 1960, Madrigals has been staging pub- lic appearances at children ~s homes, luncheons, and nursing homes. Although it follows the fifteenth and sixteenth-century English tradition of singing religious selections and short lyric poems, the group modified its presentation and sings pop- ular modern selections as well.

Before the performers can attain the standard of excellence, many hours of practice are required. Madrigals is a class that meets three times a week in the mornings before school. Each member receives a grade and credit is given.

Chosen in the fall of the school year by Mr. Ivan Caldwell, each participant must try out. Striving for a well-balanced sound and a harmonious blending of voices is the goal of Madrigals.

Sweet Harmony Heard from Girls Glee

For fifty years, Girls Glee has given juniors a chance to join an advanced vocal group. Singing for assemblies, Vespers, and Parent Group meetings, the girls, attired in dark skirts and orange blouses, are directed by Miss Dorthea Gore. Singing a medley of songs, the group participated in Joy Night, an established tradition.

The vocalist in glee must have a good singing voice and musical talent , which is determined by individual • tryout. Citizenship and scholastic records are also taken into consideration when the chorus is selected. The result of these factors is participation in an activity in which the girl gains self-satisfaction and pleasure. ,

Precision Drilling, Concert Performances

Echoing sounds of instrumental music wer e first heard throughout the halls of the school in 1910, when a small, but determ i ned group of boys organ i zed what was to become , in 1911 , the school's first official band.

Since then, the Lincoln High School Band has developed into a well-trained, disciplined group of talented musicians who participate not only in school-related events such as football and ba s ketball games, assemblies, pep rallies , and Vespers, but also in community activities. A new formation of interlocking links, introduced in 1970, added interest and precision to the band's presentation. Each year, the school presents the band in concert for students of the junior high schools. The band is under the direction of Mr. Orville Voss.

In a competition established in 1971 to determine the city ' s top group, Lincoln High School Band was awarded the first-place trophy.

Musicians Find Rewarding Opportunities

An orchestra that provided advanced training and concert experience for the student with musical ability was not officially recognized in Lincoln High School until 1912 . However , in 1911 interested students had taken the initiative and formed a provisional orchestra.

The 1920's were the most fruitful years: during this decade , Lincoln High School's orchestra won three consecutive national contests ,

Today, the musically-inclined student finds that the orchestra provides the necessary outlet for him to display his talent. Not only does the musician play for self-satisfaction, but also for that of others at school functions such as , assemblies and Vespers. To reach younger students and encourage them to learn to play , the orchestra performs at the different junior high schools. The community benefits when the spring All-City Orchestra Festival is presented.

Twenty musicians were chosen to attend the State Music Educators Clinic this year. The orchestra is under the direction of Mr. Orville Voss.

DECA-Youth Preparing for Tomorrow

DECA (Distributive Education Clubs of America) is a program of instruction in management, marketing , a.nd merchandising. First started in 1967 , the Lincoln High School DECA chapter is affiliated with the Nebraska State DECA Association and with the National DECA Association with headquarters in Washington, D. C. The local group participates in the State Leadership Conferences and statewide competitive events.

DECA, open to junior and senior students enrolled in marketing and merchandising classes is int ended as an extension of classroom training. Emphasis is placed upon developing the marketing , leadership, and social skills necessary for success in tomorrow ' s business world.

DECA is i mportant to the student because here he concentrates on studying for a specific career objective. The members of this club learn to serve both as leaders and followers.

The school also benefits from the DECA chapter. Because the club interests the student by providing a "sh ow window" for his achievement and progress , the school becomes a place where he may express his individual business talent.

Community business favors employing DECA members because of their course studies: the DECA program has many civic-related activitie s

During the school's Centennial year, DECA was active in promoting this once-in-a-life-time event. The club handled the distribution and sales of Centennial merchandise. Mr. Gerald Gruber sponsors the DE (Distributive Education) program.

Business, Key to Success for Tomorrow

The year 1969 saw Future Secretaries expand into the Business Club to include clerical -as well as stenographic enrollees. Junior and senior business education students are eligible to join this vocation-orientated organization.

Aiming to bring together those who are interested in pursuing a business career, programs featuring this specialized field and related topics are presented by members at the bi-monthly meetings. Observing the holidays with special events is part of the club's social program.

Following up the first mailing of sixteenthousand Centennial brochures, . three Business Club volunteers have been adding to the original list. Carol Dingman, Delores Gladbach , and Anne Gutierrez have been busy conducting the affairs in the Alumni Center. Sponsoring the group and its activities is Miss Dorothy Dumpert.

The student of mathematics gains experience by belonging to this body. Each year, Lincoln High School participates in the National Math Contest: in Math Club, members may prepare for this test if they wish to take it. By showing the practical, theoretical , and enjoyable aspects of mathematics, the club endeavors to interest more students in this field.

For those interested in the game , Chess Club, organized in 1959, provides multi-level opportunities for enthusiasts.

Promising Futures for Those Who Excel

Because there was a need for an organization that would encompass all phases of medicine, Future Nurses became Caduceus Club in 1968.

This club helps all members with a true interest in nursing or medicine become aware of the opportunities that these fields offer. Field trips to various institutions and specific hospital areas expose them to actual situations.

Mrs. Carol Epp and Mrs. Genevieve Huffer sponsored this year's activities, which included the annual tea held in the spring.

Since 1887, the goal of the Science Club has been to promote further interest in this area. The club is the oldest at Lincoln High School. •

Throughout the year , the group hears guest speakers , sees demonstrations by both students and teachers, and goes on field trips. The t,ighlight of the year is the annual visitation to the University of Nebraska Engineering Week.

What Can One Man Do, My Friend?

With society becoming more aware of the pollution hazards threatening the environment, Lincoln High School now has a club that hopes to alleviate some of the problems. The Committee on Combating Environmental Pollution (COCEP) originated in the fall of 1970, when members of Dr. Carl Manthey's physiology class accepted the challenges of doing what they could to clean the area of deb ri s and to conserve natural resources by utilizing materials that would be discarded.

The first project of the newIy-tormea group was gathering branches in the city parks, which fell during the October 9 snow storm. The debris was taken to the Lincoln City Nursery where it was chipped for use on park trails.

The club next turned to beautifying the school campus. Linden trees, purchased from a local nursery to match those on the east side of the building, were planted an will be cared for by COCEP members.

In cooperation with the Federal Government and the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare, COCEP surveyed three hundred Lincoln area homes to test the amount of carbon monoxide leaking into the house.

This was done to see if a survey at the national level is indicated and would be worthwhile.

Mr. Don Routh, a cadet teacher from Nebraska Wesleyan, was given the responsibility of helping write the club's constitution and getting the organization off the ground and functioning.

The organizational meeting of COCEP attracted many seriousminded students who saw the need for group action

Creative Impression: Individual Expression

Bringing together students who use their hands to create what their imaginations dictate, Art Club , organized in 1920, is an outlet for the student with artistic ability. •

Members are introduced to advanced techniques and composition and soon discover that there is more to "simple" drawing and designpainting than meets the eye. At the bi-monthly meetings, field trips are taken to various art galleries and locations where the artists sketch.

Art Club acknowledged Lincoln High School's Centennial year by holding a Centennial Art Show with the theme, "Gallery 100." Displayed were student works which ranged from the earl i est times (1871 ), to the fast-moving present (1971 ), and projected into tomorrow (2071).

Fifteen first-p l aces in the 1971 scholastic art awards were earned by Lincoln High School students: each winner received a gold key.

The Art Club Boutique, a bazaar that spotlights the products of stude nt creativity , affords those interested in various art forms the opportunity to purchase hand-made objects. Mrs. Joann Alfrey and Mrs. Judy Thompson sponsor this very active organization.

Set Designing, Painting

Full-Time Jobs of Club

With more extravagant and professional look- , ing backdrops and scenery required for productions presented on the Lincoln High School stage, a club was needed to devote itself to just set designing and painting of the scenery.

Formed in the fall of 1970, Scenery Club under the direction of Mrs. Louise Bereuter, has done the necessary art work for the All-School Play , the Mummers Play, the Opera, and Joy Night. A full-time job for its members, many hours of hard work are given by these students. As soon as one production is over, the club is told by the dramatics department what the next project is to be and the work begins all over.

Linda Sherman , Cedric Shanks, and Sam Ridge wonder just how they can hang the props made by Scenery Club.

SCENERY CLUB: Taylor, Shepard, Worth, Burnham , Auers, Hild, Bockman, and Neemann.

Exploration of Barriers, Insight info Cultures

INTE RNATIONAL CLUB

The purpose of International Club is to stimulate student interest in other countries through under standing of peoples of various cultures

One responsibility of the club is raising funds for the American Field Service (AFS), a program started in 1947. Lincoln High School · welcomed its first exchange student in "1950; since then, forty-two young persons from twenty-two countries have spent their senior year as Links. Peter Sebulika of Uganda and Elson Credie of Brazil were the Centennial exchange students.

Sponsored by Mrs Pauline Anderson, Mrs. Shirley Kovanda , Mrs. Susan Peters, and Miss Judith Roderick , the organization maintained its established projects: support of a foster child in Brazil and arrangements for an assembry.

HUMAN RELATIONS COUNCIL

Another socially-oriented club established to explore and thus bring about better understanding , between the different ethnic groups, is Human Relations Council. Working within the school , the club which began in 1965, accomplishes its purp:>ses through discussion, by hearing guest speakers, and by personal experiences.

A money-making project this year was a chili feed held in the school cafeteria. A Veterans' Reunion for all Lincoln High School alumni who served their country in times of peace and in all wars is slated for the spring. Miss Judith Roderick and Mr. Paul Adams sponsored the group.

Exchange of Ideas Generates Enthusiasm

"In order to establish an organizatio,n wherein students who show ability in the art of writing may enjoy the benefits of association with one another, to create a desire for writing, to provide facilities for the wise use of leisure time, and to set forth the advantages of writing as a vocation , the Writers Club has been formed." So stated the • constitution of the first Writers Club, established December 20> 1917.

The Club today continues to be an outlet for those students who like to write ; it is a meeting place where they have the opportunity to share writing ideas and evaluate each other's work.

Guest speakers are invited to the bi--monthly meetings. Sharing the common ground by reading prose or poetry they have written, they give inter-ested members additional incentive to continue writing. Mrs. Judy Keller and Miss Wanda Crawmer sponsored the group during the year.

WRITERS CLUB: ROW 1: Bish , Peate , Storey , Steen , Hubba rd , Gia dbach , Noe l, president. ROW 2: Mulder , secretary ; Alverson, Nohave , vicepr es id ent ; Un derhill , Bockman , t reasurer ; Smi t h, and Nitz. •

Literary 'Masterpieces' Published ,n Scribe

The latest of the three official publications at Lincoln High School, Scribe, a literary magazinel produced its first volume in 1930. It has been published every year since, with the exception of the years of World War 11.

Writers Club took the original initiative in publishing the first issue of Scribe; later it be•• came an all-student participation activity. This year, approximately three hundred and fifty entries were submitted to the Scribe Board.

A contest is held each semester to determine the best essay, poetry, and short story pieces to be included in the publication . First semester contest winners were Sally Holtzclaw, essay; Leslie Schaffer, poetry; and Patricia Petersen, short story. Joyce Oberg, essay; Debby Ventura , poetry ; and Peggy Dinges, short story, were named secondsemester winners. Each was given a Scribe.

Applicants for board membership are chosen in the fall from the three classes and screened by the sponsors who this year were Mrs. Ruth Lyness and Mrs. Kathryn Raymer.

SCRIBE BOARD: ROW 1: Auers, typist; Gesch, short story co-editor; Dein, editor; Newhouse , managing editor ; Leach , associate editor ; Ebner, short story co-editor.

·The Advocate Keeps Students Well-Informed

When the boxes- of Advocates arrive at Lincoln High School at 2:30 p.m. Wednesday afternoons, it takes many hands to stuff and deliver the newspapers to the students by the 3:15 bell.

,Jerry Davidson finds the dictionary to be an essential tool for writing his sports copy, while Lori Goodro, Jean Gesch, Annette Sims , and Chan Taylor use old Advocates ·for in-depth research.

By Accurate Reporting Of School Activities

Established in 1895, The Advocate is the old -est continuing publicati on at Lincoln High School. Since its humble beginning , it has weathered many editorial and financial storms. Because of a "complexity of reasons, " publication of the newspaper was suspended in 1910-11.

Today, The Advocate, published bi-monthly , is issued free of charge to all students In the past, it has been distributed both on a. weekly and monthly basis. The paper has been commercially produced by letter press and offset , the present method. At one time students themselves set the paper using a Var i -T yper ma c hine

The editorial policy of the staff has been, and continues to be that of accurately recording the events of the school: the publication is focused on the student and his activities and other events t~at are with i n his experience.

Mrs. Ruth "Busy" Gartner , expertly sponsors The Advocate and The Links and keeps them running. Overseeing the finances of these enterprises is Miss Betty Heckman.

Dennis Reich knows that the telephone and the yellow pages can save his feet in finding advertisers for the newspaper; Linda Wagner, Karen Brumm, Carol Speth , and Marsha Anderson offer some helpful womanly advice in persuasion.

Trying to fit the copy into the limited amount of space available and writing clever headlines seems like an impossible task for Rhonda Preston, Joan Faldtz , Jane Levine, Mary Cariotto, Marcia Benner , and Nancy Luft, but i t must be done.

Serving the youth of Lincoln High School since 1953, the Parents Group, organized by Wil·· liam Bogar, principal, is a local group not affiliated with the Parent-Teacher Association.

The activities of this organization vary _ as much as do the students' interests. Hi-Spot dances are sponsored after many football and basketball games Parents act i n the capacity of chaperones , coat-room attendants, concessions sellers, and arrangers for the musical groups. Although an admission charge of twenty-five cents is collected, this usually does not pay for all expenses: the Parents Group foots the bill.

By the parents' arranging for buses from Lincoln High and other designated points , all interested students are able to attend football games at Seacrest Field. Once during each football and basketball season, an out-of-town game is declared "student migration. " The Parents Group sponsors the popular event with a minimum charge to students. At one time , trains were used for these out-of-town excursions.

Meetings, which all parents are urged to attend, are held periodically throughout the year. These meetings help keep parents abreast of educational trends and opportunities offered to their children. Informal sessions are also scheduled to deal with current problems .

Centennial Committee Rounds Out Century

Although this year marks Lincoln High School's one hundredth anniversary, the Centennial Committee has been working on celebrations plans for a year and a half, in order to achieve coordination and effectiveness in the programming. Forging ahead in this special year, a wide variety of activities have been planned by the alumni, administration 1 teachers , and students, who made up the committee.

On Wednesdays of each week, the Committee held its meeting at eight o'clock in the mornings to discuss proposed concepts that would reflect all the ages. Projects were weighed for their interest values on their individual merits. Despite the extra work of planning such an event, the concensus of the committee members was that the majestic occasion of Lincoln High School's Centennial was well worth the effort.

Athletic Traditions--80 Years In The Making.

Since t he beginning of i n terscholastic athletic competition at Lincoln High School eighty years ago , Links teams have maintained a dominating position in Nebraska high school sports : in seven of the ten interscholastic sports offered under the Nebraska School Activities Association , the school has garnered more state championships than any other Nebraska high school.

Football has always been king : over t he years powerful Links grid teams have earned twenty-five state championships . However, the schoo l' s fame has not been limited to football alone; its · excellence in all competitive sports has helped it to establish its great ath l et i c reputation.

The school has always believed that the student should have the advantage of a well-rounded program of extracurricular activities as well as a • good academic backg_round. That this dual con-

cept has been successful is proven by the number of former Lincoln High School athletes who have gone on to achieve highest honors in all areas of social endeavor: the arts, business, entertainment, Jabor, philanthropy, and politics.

Through participation in a sport, the student learns the much-needed physical and mental discipline necessary for later life. However, a great athletic program can be achieved only with the support of students, administration , and parents. In this respect, Lincoln High School has excelled.

The Links athletic tradition has been and always will be a source of pride to Lincoln High School students and graduates. Because of the continuing positive attitudes of athletes and students, the accomplishments of Links teams of the next 100 years surely will equal or surpass the records compiled during the first century.

Peppers, Cheerleaders Lead School Spirit

The great support given athletic teams at Lincoln High School is the culmination of much hard work done by several spirit groups. The interest shown by the students attending games and meets is very gratifying to Links athletes.

Varsity and Reserve Cheerleaders, chosen by tryout before a student and faculty judging committee, dedicate much time and effort to the support of athletics. They lead the pep club in cheers at games and promote spirit both inside and outside the school.

Peppers sponsor Spirit Week, cheer-on Links athletic teams, and generally are the center of school spirit. One Pepper is chosen Spirit Girl of the Month because of her dedication and work toward promoting spirit. Members of L Club, com- • prised ot Lincoln High School lettermen, strive to increase good sportsmanship.

The pep band, under the direction of Orville Voss, works hard to prepare for the half-time shows . at football games. During the winter, their music can be heard ringing throughout the gymnasium during basketball games.

Linda Shepard works on one of the many signs she made to promote spirit; her efforts earned her a Spirit Girl award.

The pep band leads the school in a pep rally around the halls of Lincoln High Scrool, generating enthusiasm for the next game.

Gridders Finish 7-2; City, Trans Co-Champs

Four fine season-ending victories, which completed a highly successful 7-2 season , gained many honors for the Lincoln High School varsity football team. A final victory over Lincoln Northeast assured the gridders of both Trans-Nebraska Conference and Lincoln Public Schools co-championships. In addition , the team was ranked third, fourth, fifth, and sixth in Class A by UPI , the Lincoln Journal-Star, AP , and the Omaha WorldHerald, respectively.

The season ' s record was marred by losses to Class A champion Lincoln Southeast by a narrow 12-9 margin and to Class B champion Pius X , 13-0. Highlights of the campaign were a 39-12 pasting of prev i ously fifth-rated North Platte, and wins over Big Ten Conference powers, Scottsbluff and Grand Island, along with fine conference and city • showings. Head coach Andy Loehr said he was "especially pleased with the fast finish after the mid-season losses."

The defense held two opponents scoreless : Hastings, 28-0 , in the season opener, and Lincoln East, 6-0, on a pass play late in the final quarter. The Link's offense, which averaged 19.7 points per game during the season, was shut out only once, against Pius X, 13-0.

LOck of Consistency

Is Sophs' Downfall

Although they suffered a winless season, the members of the sophomore football team were able to gain the exper ience needed to susta i n Lincoln High School's f i ne football tradition.

Coach Joe Folsom described his team as one which "lacked cons i stency on offense; penalties and errors hampered many touchdown drives."

Severa l players were recognized by Coach Folsom for the quali ty of their performances. Quarterback MikH Meyer , and halfback Allen Lyons were cited for their all-round abilities; Ron Galusha and Marl< Linke, on offense, and Wayne Cramm and Bill Venhaus, on defense, were also commended for their outstanding contributions.

Inexperience Hampers Varsity Gymnasts

An i nexperienced Lincoln High School varsity gymnastics teams compe1'ing against such powers as Class A champion Lincoln Southeast, runner-up champion Lincoln Northeast, North Platte, and Creighton Prep, complet ed a disappointing 2-6 dual meet season. The gymnasts' t\l\'O wins came over Grand ls!and and Beatrice. However, the Links completed the season with a fine sixth-place showing in the state meet finlshing ahead of many teams who had defeated them earlier.

According to Coach Duane Strough. several i'ndividuals performed especially well tor the Links. The loss of senior co-capta,n Ray Schmidt, highpoint man for the season who suffered a broken ank!e before the district meet, hurt the Links' chances. Senior George Nimic was named district champion in floor exerci~:;e and went on to tie for seventh in the state meet in this event. Three junior all-round men, co-captain Frank O'Connor , Tom Staley, 2nd John rv1eyerhoff, turned in good performances and should be abie to bid for state honors next year. For his performance on the trampoline, junior Doug Dit.toe won a medal at the state meet, the only Link to do so.

Coach Strough admitted he is "very optimistic about next season." The cause for this optimism is that of the thirteen men who qualified in the 1970 state meet, ten will return next year. These, along with a fine reserve team which tied for the city championship, should make the gymnasts serious contenders next season.

Future

Much Brighter

The 1970 cross-country team registered the poorest season in its history , due largely to the youth and inexperience of the participants. Going against some of the finest teams in the state, the Links fai l ed to record a regular season win despite their hard work and improvement.

One of the highlights of the grueling season was finish i ng ahead of York and behind Lincoln Southeast i n a triangular. The Links runners completed the season by winning the Lincoln Public Schools Non-Qualifiers Meet , edging Northeast by five points in a close battle.

Coach Harold Scott cited Dave Hudson , a _junior who won the non-qualifiers meet , as the most consistent runner. :• sophomore Jerry Wolford , who also improved steadily , should be able to make a good showing for the Links next year."

Despite the record, Coach Scott commented that "th~ team's progress was most gratifying ; the future looks much brighter for the harriers."

The 1970 varsity tennis team, with no return- · ing l ettermen , struggled through a dismal season in which it recorded only a single win. The 5-4 v i ctory over Hastings highlighted the otherwise frustrating campaign , conducted against some of the state's finest tennis teams. Despite positive a t titudes and hard work , the Links netters could not ove r come the lack of experience.

Two sophomores , Tom J=uenning and Brian Rugg, mentioned by Coach Leroy Colson for their " improvement ," could ma k e the Links important contenders next season.

" I 'm always an optimist , " commented Coach Colson after the season. "How well we do next season wi l l depend on how hard the boys work to improve the i r play during the coming year. "

'Explosive' Cagers Ranked Ninth in State

Varsity

Competing in what was undoubtedly the strongest schedule of any team in the state, the 1970-71 varsity basketball team came on strong late in the year to win five of its last six regular season's games. Despite playing against nine teams rated in the top-ten in the state , the Links took an 8-8 record into districts , only to be eliminated by the eventual state champion, Lincoln East, by two points. The Links were rated ninth in Class A by The Lincoln Journal Star and the Associated Press, and finished in a tie for second in the Trans-Nebraska Conference and City races.

Coach Alden Johnson described his team as "very explosive." This is proved by the statistics which show that Lincoln High outscored its opponents by 66 field-goals (132 points) and posted an outstanding team shooting performance of 46 percent of all field-goal attempts. The cagers were strong in rebounding, leading the opponents by almost 200 in recoveries. The major weakness of the team was its inability to connect at the freethrow line, being outscored by 105 points and hitting only 57 percent of the free-throw attempts.

The appearance of the Links on the playing floor signals the start of another game and brings cheers from team supporters.

100-Point Production Highlights

100th Year

Lincoln High School's basketball team reached the century mark in scoring for only the second time in its first 100 years during the 1970-71 season. The 100-78 win over Grand Island on January 30, 1911, was certainly one of the highlights ot the year. In addition , in a 72-61 victory , the Links inflicted one of the two losses suffered by Class A champion Lincoln East 1 before losing two other games to the Spartans by a total of six points Five of the nine losses were by three points or less.

Several outstanding one-game performanc es were turned in by the Links as a team: the 100point spree against Grand Island included a total of 44 field goals . The cagers grabbed 56 rebounds in an 84-63 win over Omaha South, for the season's high. The Links made 63 percent of thei r field goal attempts against Lincoln Southeast in a 79-73 victory y and connected on 78.5 oercent of their free-throws in a 55-53 loss to Lincoln Northeast.

Reserves Finish Fast; Post Winning Record

After a slow start> the 1970-71 rnserve basketball team put it together and completed a fine season. The 10-6 record was accomplished through the reserves winning seven of their last eight games. The streak started when the Links ended Columbus' winning string at eight games. After a one-point loss to Boys Town , the club won its last six contests. The team's 4-2 intercity record was second to Lincoln Northeast's.

Coach Joe Folsom said, "The key to winni ng was employing a full-court pressing defense, resulting in many interceptions and baskets

Players mentioned by Coach Folsom for good performances included Jerry Meyers, the leading scorer (135); Bob KE.~aton, who led the team in rebounds (123); Mark Weaver, a good defensive player; Stan Dowd , who set up plays ; and Steve Harris, cited for good passing and ball-handling.

Swimmers Finish

With 6-4 Dual Mark

A young varsity swimming team, which included only five seniors, splashed its way through a season characterized by close, heartbreaking losses. The only severe loss suffered by the Links in the 6-4 dual meet season was at the hands of powerful state--champion Omaha Westside, 63-32. The 58-37 loss to city champion Lincoln East was much closer than the score indicates, as the Links lost both relays. The swimmers ' hopes of defeating Lincoln Southeast and Fremont were dashed as the Links were touched out in one of the two relays in each meet to decide the final outcome Lincoln High's six dual meet wins were all by substantial margins.

In the annual LHS relay meet, the Links were edged by powerful Fremont by one point. The varsity swimmers finished third in the Trans-Nebraska and City Relay meets behind East and Southeast and finished in eighth place in the state meet to end the season.

Five individuals were cited by Coach Melvin Simpson for outstanding performances. Jim Simpson went undefeated for the Links in his senior season, capping it with a state championship at 185 lbs. Mike Kletchka lost only one match and successfully defended the state title he won in 1970 as a junior. In his first season as a wrestler, senior Dave Schwartz finished third in the state for Lincoln High School.

Two juniors who had fine seasons for the Links will be the nucleus for next year's team. Randy Knaub, district and Trans-Nebraska champion, and heavyweight Jerry Bockoven, who took a second place in the district meet, will return for Coach Simpson along with some other promising underclassmen from this year's squad.

'Talented' Thine/ads Among Best in State

A talent-laden varsity track team began the 1971 season in fine fashion, winning its first two meets by substantial margins. The Links earned a lopsided victory over Pius X and York in a triangular to start the year out right. In the Capital City Relays, the thinclads outdistanced their nearest competitor, Lincoln Northeast, by a score of 96 to 57 5/6 points to win the meet for the sixth consecutive year. Lincoln High placed third behind Grand Island and Hastings in the Lincoln Invitational..

Coach Harold Scott cited several team members who performed well early in the year: Ken Adkins, the 1970 Class A low hurdles champion, also specializes in five other events, including the high jump, in which he now ranks as the second best in LHS history.

Ralph Henderson and Steve Moore are among the best in the state in the long jump, triple jump, and hurdles. Ted Eckert, Lincoln Invitational champion in the 440, and Chris McMeen are top middle-distance runners. Mike Freeman, top man for the Links in the weight events, had already earned · several first-places early in the season.

Coach Scott commented that the team had "good talent." As to the season's outlook, he said, (SHopefully, we'll do exceptionally well. We should be among the leading contenders in the state."

Intramural Progam

Boost to Fitness

The extensive intramural program at Lincoln High School offers boys the opportunity to have fun while keeping physically fit. Off-season athletes and those who choose not to participate in varsity athletics find their needs and desires, in respect to competitive physical activity, fulfilled through the intramural program.

The program, sponsored by Dick Terry, includes the team sports, football, basketball, volleyball, and softball: junior-senior teams compete with others of their class and sophomore teams compete with other sophomores. Individual sports -table tennis, badminton, handball , golf, and weightlifting-are also offered.

In most of the intramural sports, school champions go on to compete with other city high schools. This enables participants to experience rough competition in addition to having fun.

The new Gladiator weight machine, a recent addition to the Athletic Department, provides a chance to improve fitness

Rousing games of intramural softball take place in the spring afternoons behind PSAB and in sight of the state capitol.

Two junior- senio r teams compete in a basketball game for the chance to compile the best record and win the championship.

Volleyball starts after the winter spo11s and gives off-season athletes a chance to stay in shape while having fun.

Girls Gymnasts Strive

To Improve Skills

Competing against girls from the other Lincoln public high schoo l s, the members of this year's girls gymnastics team improved their skills while experiencing the thrill of competition.

As in 1970 , the female gymnasts competed in dual meets prior to the city meet. The Links fared well in the duals against Northeast and East, claiming a majority of first places in each The events included floor exercise , balance beam , uneven parallel bars , and trampoline . In the city meet, the number of events was increased to six to include the sidehorse and all-around titles.

Though talented senior Toni Jelinek did not compete in the city meet, Lincoln High School claimed two first places: Lisa Shelledy in the intermediate floor exerctse and Karla Gerbig in the advanced unevens. Four seconds and one thirdplace were also earned by the girl gymnasts.

lnf-erscholastic Sports for Girls Now Official

After s ixty -five yea r s , another Lincoln High Schoo! comeback has been staaed This time it followed. a reappraisal of the glrls activity program: perrnlssl on was granted to form an interscholast i·:~ swi mming team in the fall of 1970.

The first year of girls interscholastic compMition was in 1899. However, 1905-06 saw a /·:alt in Hrn program, which also put restrictions r:v~ U1e boys athletics.

Finding a place to practice has always been a problem In the early 1900's it was the need for a gymnasium to practice basketball. In the spring of 1971, it was a track. Presently , the oval is being shared by both girls - and boys teams.

Although the swimming team compiled a record of 1-1, and the track team promises to show talent, it looks as if girls interscholastic sports are here to stay.

Gradually, more /Jusinesses sprang up; at the s·ame time , the population i ncreased and a real community began to t hrive Progress brought about innovations while individuals provided the determination to carry them through. The foundations of an ec onomic system were firmly estab~ !ishec f and comm erce re-doubled itself with time

Today , that city exists in the midst of a complex society which .sustains an intricate network of businesses. Together with others, it engages in a multitude of transactions and dealings. Busin~ss ' is no longer controlled by a few basic principles, but rather is subject to a variety of economic laws and properties. The consumers now willingly take an active part in the economy both for their own livelihoods and their own personal pleasures.

Businesses are growing in size and number with the rest of the community. Progress continues to make its contribution to the economic system which, together with the people, boasts an increasing efficiency and a growing rate of activity.

MALL DEDICATION ADDRESS

LINCOLN HIGH SCHOOL FOUNDERS'DAY

4 April 1971 by

E. J. Faulkner

We are gathered today to pay tribute to the distinguished century of service of Lincoln High School to the more than 32 ; 000 men and women whom it has graduated and to the manifold contributions of this in~titution to our city , state, and nation. It was exactly one hundred years ago, on April 4, 1871, that the citizens of Lincoln approved a $50,000 bond issue to finance the construction of a central facility that would house the city ' s first high school. It is unnecessary and would indeed be impossible to recite here the history of this school during its first century. That record will soon be printed in book form as " The Lincoln High School Story" by Ruth E. Gartner. I am sure that each of you will wish to procure a copy and through its pages relive the significant developments that have molded this great institution.

Rather than dwelling on past events this afternoon wou Id prefer to talk about the attributes and characteristics of Lincoln High School which impart to it a truly unique character Undoubtedly the single factor that in the past and still today sets Lincoln High apart from other secondary schools is and has been the unusual capabilities and devotion of the fine men and women who have constituted its faculty and administration. They early sensed and have perpetuated the spirit and desire of that little prairie community that decided one hundred years ago that its children should not want for a good education. From the very beginning, these skilled teachers and administrators have fostered a tradition of excellence that has challenged successive generations of students. Despite too often meager pay and inadequate facilities, they have maintained the high teaching standards that make learning a demanding, enriching, and fulfilling experience. Originally the school's curriculum was composed primarily of the classical subjects; but with changing times and our evolving technological society, the curriculum was ex• panded to include instruction in the vocational trades and industrial arts. Particularly today, our highly technical economy needs the skills of those who have been trained in the vocational specialties. The contribution of Lincoln High School to satisfying this demand is as important as is its function in preparing a part of its student body for college or university. Quite as productive as the formal instruction received in the classroom has been Lincoln High School's well-developed program of extracurricular activities. Beginning almost with the founding of the school and flowering as the institution grew, these extracurricular activities have helped mature Lincoln High graduates into well-rounded young people. We think, for instance of the purposes of the Student Council · as outlined in the preamble of its constitution which states that "The purpose of the Student Council is to bring the interest of the students before the faculty, to provide opportunity for student cooperation, to promote a sentiment for law and order and the general welfare of the school." Through such activities as the Council, the student at Lincoln High School early finds an outlet for creative social responsibility and gains an appreciation that accomplishment comes best through organization governed by !aw.

The great tradition of Lincoln High School, of course, includes a long history of expression in the arts and in athletics. Over the years , the school has added significantly not only to the stature of the individuals involved but to the community by reason of the quality of its musical organizations, !ts drama and as other forms of art. Few who have passed through these portals have failed to thrill to the manner in which Lincoln High School has been represented on the gridiron, basketball court, baseball diamond, and the tra~k. The tradition of excellence in academic matters has earned over into the field of athletic competition , where under the tutelage of such greats as Browne, Baller, Beechner, and Pfeiff, the young men of Lincoln High School have lea~n.ed not just the athletic skills but have developed the qualities of character that are essential to success in life. For many years Lincoln High School enjoyed the uniqu_e advantage_ of being the sole public high school in a growing community, the capital of its state. In a very real sense, Lincoln High was a cross section of the entire community. It represented the community and held the interest of the entire community. It profited also from a very close and cordial relationship with the University of Nebraska with a most harmonius interchange carried on between the faculties of the two schools. Lincoln High grew to maturity in an environment that was favorable for the development of a high school that was strong in every respect and yet this opportunity would never have become· reality but for the singular devotion and ability of the men and women who have guided this institution and taught its students. I cannot name all of these great people and in a sense it is unfair to others to mention any of them, but out of my own experience and deep sense of Indebtedness I cannot fail to recall on this occasion names such as those of Olivia Pound, Gertrude Jones, Jesse B. Jury, Mariel Gere, Ethel Beattie, and Frank Kane, among the superb teachers from whom I learned In the same breath we recall the distinguished administration of men like Will French, Otto Hackman, Hal Mardis, and Bill Bogar. Lincoln High School and all who have profited from studying here stand as monuments to the inspiring teaching and stimulus of a consistently superior faculty.

It is pleasant indeed at a centennial celebration such as this to be able to look back on so distinguished a history. It is in stark contrast to the confusion and mediocrity or worse that -seem to have blighted much of America's educational system in the last two decades. There are those who say that the great tragedy of our time has been the failure of the American educational system. They use the term failure advisedly, asserting that the system has not broken down, that it has not ceased to function, that it has not been destroyed, but that it has simply failed in its purpose. It seems to me not too difficult to define what education should do and be. There should be no disagreement whether among - educators or laymen as to what we should expect of a successful educational system. First of all, education should pro-

vide young minds with training in useful skills to enable them to make a living and adjust to social institutions as they find them. Secondly, it should inculcate a responsibility for and an appreciation of the institutional arrangements for gov- ernment , business and the professions which have evolved over the years and which are essential in making society work. This does not mean uncritical acceptance. On the contrary, education should foster debate, criticism, and a healthy skepticism based on hard study and reason. Above all , it should be realistic and tough-minded , exploring all sides of every argument and seeking to present the world as it is as well as to develop visions as to how it can be made better. I believe that according to these criteria Lincoln High School stands out as among the most successful secondary schools in the nation. It has inculcated in its students not only a desire to learn but has trained them in the skills that have enabled them to become productive members of society. It has imbued in them not only a sense of responsi- bility for law and order but a knowledge of how progress can best be achieved through accepted social , economic, and constitutional means.

Last October, when President Nathan Pusey welcomed the Freshman class to Harvard University, among other things he said to them:

"I hope that the new decade now beginning will witness a very large reduction in the amount of uninformed assertive-

ness and malicious allegation which has recently polluted the academic atmosphere here and on other campuses

"I hope the disposition to indulge in rude polemical discourse will have vanished , that it will have become customary for all individuals in this and similar societies to seek first to know; to weigh , ponder and appraise before they exclaim ; and that they will then again be inclined to show modesty in expressing their opinions and exercise charity in their judgments.

" I hope there will be more ready and more honest selfassessment; less instant , self-gratifying condemnation of others."

•

To me these expressions of hope by President Pusey fairly epitomize the objectives to which Lincoln High School has always aspired and which it has largely achieved over the years. Here we have an atmosphere nurtured by a fine faculty that has helped Lincoln High School men and women discover how they can contribute not td disruption but to increased human well-being and social advance.

It seems to me that nothing could be more appropriate than for the administration , faculty , students , and alumni of Lincoln High School as they construct the new Centennial Mall to dedicate it to a perpetuation of the glorious tradition of the l ast one hundred years , a tradition of great teaching, careful learning , and contributions to the public good.
