There are many parts to Lincoln High and the 1,641 students who attend. The "bridge" in Antelope Park has been a part of LHS for many years
How many students can remember getting up early in the morning or staying up late the night before just to beat that inter-city rival to get our colors on the bridge? How many cans of paint have been spent by L.HS enthusiasts just to show their spirit and that they belonged to Lincoln High?
To be a part of something a person must sometimes struggle, as a runner on the track team looking for the last lap, or he can be the spectator cheering the runner on. A person can be a part of anything if he truly wants to be. It may mean learning to get along with others, giving up some things, learning new things and forgetting old, but the end result should always be what you chose it to be.
Being a part of Lincoln High is having your picture taken for the yearbook, carrying a load of books to help that favorite teacher, losing your voice at a football game, trying to get by the hall guard with a bag of popcorn, or it may just be sitting under a tree thinking about yourself and the world around you But most of all , it's doing what you want to do and being what you want to be.
I am a part-4
Everybody daydreams now and then , and we all have our rainbows. So don't give up those dreams at the end of your rainbow
Dave Kapke
Lincoln High is a place for learning but even more than that , it's a .Place to grow and meet new people Learning about: World War I and II , how to figure taxes, what the inside of a crayfish looks like , how to march while playing a t uba, what Hamlet meant by "To be or not to be " , how to bar-b-que spare ribs , and the meaning of "postulates" in geometry
Growing: preparing for the future maturing , accepting others, and understand i ng yourseif People : meeting new people, older and younger, people to look up to and people to look up to you, making friends to last a lifetime.
It takes two to start a friendship and two to continue it. Each person is an essential part. Laughing, posing for a photographer , opening a present, cleaning up the lunchroom or watching the girls go by, all are no fun unless shared with a friend. Sometimes that friend is lost in the crowd and then we must find them to find ourselves Friends become a part of us and us a part of thern. Friendship is the difference between what things are and what they could be.
Belonging means seeing new changes, starting with the cut of a ribbon. An addition to Lincoln this past year, was the Lincoln Center, it became a part of Lincoln when Mayor Boosalis cut the ribbon. Changes occur in each of us and the area around us and we either accept them or try to lose them by moving our thoughts on, like the tracks of a train
Everybody is different and wants to be an individual·make yourself a "part" of that something that is important to you.

Candidates for king and queen were nominated by Student Council and the Boys L-Club. Student Council chose the male candidates, while the L-Club chose the female candidates. The senior class then voted and narrowed the field of candidates down to ten. There was another vote taken, and then the king and queen were chosen The winners were then revealed during a traditional half - time ceremony , with Lori Maxfield and Dave Walker as Mistress and Master of Ceremonies

Student Council, Plenty of Involvement
Student Council was taking part in most everything this year. They usually had two to three activities going on at once. Most of their activities were to make money for dances and things related to L.H.S.
Council started the year off with the annual Home Coming dance. Followed by a Film Festival; the crowd for both events was overwhelming. With such a large crowd from the first Festival, Council decided to have one every month. Films featured were: The Butcher, Tommy, and many others.
The most exciting news Council had, is in the planning stage. Plans are, for Lincoln High to have a Garden Mall, which would be in the front of the building. "It will benefit the students," said Lori Maxfield.
Sophs: Greg Lemon, Joel Luethje, Mark Fitzgibbons , Brad Jameson, Patty Allgai.er, Sue Kuwamoto.

Great Participation by the Senior Class
This year's Senior Steering Committee was made up of some 60 students. Those 60 broke up into six smaller committees; each committee was then assigned a task. Some of those tasks were, Publicity, End of the year activities, and money raising for the Senior Gift. One of their famous money raisers was the Links Legs Colltest.
Why 60 some students? Well When Senior Steering elections were held, 60 students applied. So they just decided to keep all 60 students for the Committee. Senior Committee then worked together with the idea that they would get more done.
Committee members were: Karl Scholz, President; Lori Maxfield, Vice-President; Lori Burke, Secretary; Uduak Udofia, Treasurer, Debbie Fry, Belinda Cobb, Mary Irons, Adrienne Robinson, Krisanne Ricketts, Alison Leonard, John Yoakum, Kevin Albers, Doug Anderson, Julie Hiatt, Vicky Arrigo, Ruth Fen, Lars Olson, Bonnie Jones, Lisa Roth, Lynn Beideck, Cathy Buckley, Terri Enyeart, Arny Dutton , Ted Miller, Denise Jones, Kim Knoche, Pam Schroeder, Cindy Schwartz, Deb Sothan, Terry Buttke, Vicky Tucker, Joette Larsen, Marilyn Grosse, Renne Spale, Belinda Acosta, Teresa Hogan, Jenny Schizas, Nancy Clore, Annette Contreras, Sue Spahn, Deanna Murngaard, Boo Houlihan, Sue Hobbs, Kim Hoffmaster, Krista Maaske, Vicki Wachter.

Junior Steering, Had One Tough Job
Prom was the biggest event of the year for the Junior Steering Committee. During the year they were very busy with fund raisers and preparations for Prom. President Shelly Morrow said, "Committee was hard work but worth it." Those words went for the whole Committee.
To raise tunds for Prom Junior Committee wo~ked at basketball games and swim meets during the season. They sold concessions to boost the funds.
Sophomore Committee was assembled late in the year Thinking up fund raisers was their goal, to boost their finances for next year.
Both Junior and Sophomore Committees had a tough job this year . With dedicated students on both Committees the year passed by successfully. Dedication is what made the Junior and Sophomore Steering Committees work and succeed in all that both Committees attempted.

"Dinny and the Witches" concerns the search of a young musician for the perfect life. Being human, and therefore imperfect, Dinny's search leads him in circles as he follows a shooting star; and a girl - Amy (Sue Colborn).
When Dinny (Jeff Charrion) refuses to accept the imperfect, the three witches (Tammy Shaw, Belinda Acosta, and Linda Bertrand) who control the world, grant him the only perfection in this world, Death.
Only when given a second, and finally a third chance by the friendly witch, does Dinny realize that happiness can be found through love; and even though it may be flawed, it's the best thing that life can offer.

Mummers started last summer by having a meeting to change their constitution They felt there was a need for a stricter policy to become a Mummer
In previous years, students had to read a part out of a book to join, but due to students with lack of interest a new constitution was drawn-up. In the new constitution students rece i ved activity points to become members Points were awarded to students who participated in drama oriented activities. Students had to earn eight points to join which represents about 80 hours of work. To keep their membership up-to-date , members had to earn eight points per semester. Mummers were awarded letters after 60 points were earned.
A one act play "The Last Gasp" was performed by members The group received a high mark in state competition held at Kearney.
Officers for this year were: Marcia Sprague, President ; Larry Chapp , Vice-President ; Alan Oree, Secretary ; Gwen Hurst, Treasurer; V i cki Stacy, Publicity Manager ; Fran Mutchie, Historian.

Mummers Present 11 A Thurber Carnival' '
The Mummers play this year was "A Thurber Carnival," written by James Thurber The play was divided up into skits with three fables and a monologue.
The cast was comprised of ten people chosen from the Mummers Club. Each person played up to four roles in the skits
Thurber's style of writing was mainly male-oriented. The women in his plays were always stereotyped as inferior. The men were the dominant characters.
The set for the play this year was designed by Don Yanek Don designed a set for each of the high schools this year and was chosen to do the set for the Mummers.
Some of the different skits which made up the play were: "Mr Preble Gets Rid of H i s Wife, " "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty , " "File and Fo r get , " "The Macbeth Murder Mystery , " and "The Pet Department." Ms Molly Lange directed the play.

Cheerleaders' Enthusiasm Leads Links
If you've ever attended a LHS football game you probably noticed 11 girls on the field leading cheers. Not only do they lead cheers, but they also plan and lead every pep ra I ly.
In order to lead cheers at the beginning of the year, the cheerleaders attended a special cheerleading camp last summer. These girls also devoted many hours after school learning new cheers and perfecting old ones.
In the spring the chee·rleaders led a special cheerleader's clinic to teach cheers to younger girls This gave the younger girls an opportunity to learn cheers required to try out to be a cheerleader.
Whether the Links won or lost, the cheerleaders were always out there yelling until their hearts were content!

Good Impression
Co-Ed Counselors started their work this year during the summer to make sure the in-coming sophomores would have a good impression of Lincoln High.
The Counselors start each year with a tour of Lincoln High, but President Jackie Stebbins and the other officers decided to have a Coke Party before the tour, this was held on Aug. 26th The party and the tour went over big with the sophomores.
One of the many questio ns asked by the sophomores was, "What kind of clubs and activities are there that we can get into?" The Counselors explained the schools clubs and activities in small detail. Upon explaining, they themselves learned more
The main reason counselors have a party is to get to know the sophomores better and to give them a chance to know the Counselors Being friendly and courteous helps in projecting a warm welcome.
This year's sponsors are: Mrs. Fisher, Mrs. Furr, and Mrs Grant. These sponsors help the girls in getting started with new and different ideas for the tour.
Officers are: Jackie Stebbins, President; Carol Turek, 1st Vice-President; Jolene Capps, 2nd VicePresident; Patty Geisler, Secretary; Adrianne Robinson, Treasurer; Laura Williams , Historian; Cathy Nun, Parliamentarian.

Comedy 11 How To Succeed" '77 Musical
The title of this year's musical was "How To Succeed in Business Without Really Trying." The story centered around a young man J. Pierrepont Finch, who was trying to make it to the top at the World Wide Wicket Company.
The one main obstacle that stood in his way was the pres i dent's nephew, Bud Frump. Frump always called his mother if things didn't go right, she in turn would call Mrs. Biggley , the president's wife, who then would call her husband Biggley and complain. Frump thought that since he was the president's nephew, he should get promoted before anybody else.
A stenographer, Rosemary Pilkington, fell madly in love with Finch. She tried everything to get him to recognize her. As the story progressed, Finch asked Rosemary to be his wife.
Finch made it out of the mail room all the way to President of the Board at World Wide Wicket Company.
The story ended with Finch accepting the president's job, and WallyWomper , the past president, marrying the flirt, Hedy LaRue

EPIC Participation Involves Volunteers
Providing valuable learning experience to students who are willing to volunteer their services in the community, is the purpose of EPIC.
Students who were involved in EPIC (Educati<;>nal Participation in the Community), chose the area in which they wanted to work. After their area was chosen, they then went for an interview to be placed. After that, they began their volunteer work.
Students sp~nt two periods a day meeting and helping others in their different areas in the city. Many hours of their own time V-:,ere also spent working with these people.
A few of the places EPIC students donated their services were: The Red Cross, Lancaster Manor, Antelope Zoo, and Bryan Hospital.
Mr. Alden Johnson advised the students in their services.

Advocate Helps Keep Students Informed
Advocate, a paper of and by the students of Lincoln High The Advocate served as a source of information to the students at Lincoln High.
Staff members worked hard through-out the year gathering information for stories to put out a perfect paper. Stories in the paper ranged from sports, to features, to news around the community. Many stories were written from information gathered in the community. The "Norden Dam Project" was just one of the many articles that took many hours of research.
Staff members for the Advocate were: Lori Maxfield , Dana Pratt, Belinda Acosta, Gena Lysko, Robin Hruby, Andy Ozaki, and Ruth Fen. Students who reported for the Advocate were: Debbie Baum, Debi Goodwin, Tim Howard, and Gwen Hurst. Mark DoRan , Lisa Jones, Lisa Workman , Mark Hammer, and Brad Nelson were the Advocate Photographers. Julie Beezley, Diane Nerud, and Sheila Vanek worked as Business Managers for the paper.

Links Staff Produces Quality Yearbook
Meeting deadlines, writing copy, cropping pictures, and selling ads are just a few of the many tasks the Links Staff completed.
Starting early in the summer the members of the staff began making decisions on what they wanted the theme to be and what the cover should look like. They also gained insight on what the school year would involve.
When school began in the fall the staff started the process of putting together each page. Rough drafts had to be drawn up of every page, and pictures had to be scheduled.
With a new company selected this year to print the yearbook, the staff gained the opportunity of putting together each page and getting a better idea of the finished product.
Pictures had to be glued down, along with copy and headlines. After all of this was done, there was a chance of changing things that didn't look right.
After all the pages were done and sent to the company to be printed, the staff along with the student body anxiously awaited the delivery date.

Debate Returns to Lincoln High School
After a much too long absence of nine years, Lincoln High fielded a Debate Team.
Students interested in Debate had the chance this year of taking Debate as a class. This class which was taught and sponsored by Mrs. Jaudzemis, learned the techniques for effective argumentation. They also learned that it took alot of research to support an opinion.
The topic this year was, "Penal Reform." Debators researched the topic by using periodicals and interviewing people They used their i nformation to argue either affirmative or negative. The affirmative argued that there needed to be a change, and provided information to support a new plan. The negative supported the issue by bringing out the positive points through research.
Since this was the first year for Debate , the Links entered novice meets which were for beginners. They competed against Northeast and Omaha High Schools, gaining valuable experience from them.
Team members this past year were: Marcia Filbert, Rick Hindman, Kim Knoche, Leslee Kopines , Margaret Matteson, Jim Pieper, Krisanne Ricketts, Adrienne Robinson. Cris Salinas, Heidi Schlitt, Bruce Underwood, Pat Underwood and Mark Yoakum.

New Links'' Compile Winning Record
The 1976 Varsity football team had a very successful season, compiling an impressive 5-3-1 record under new head coach Larry Frost. The first-year coach started off his Lincoln High football career by administering the veer offense. This type of offense made the Links ground and aerial attack strong and they had the potential to score from anywhere on the -field at any time.
The season started off great with the Links winning three out of the first four games. Grand Island, the gridders first cha I lenge and state playoff qualifier, found out the new Links were for real. The Lincoln High gridders, led by their defense, dominated the game. The Islanders never came close to scoring The offense was plagued by penalties and didn't manage to score and the game ended in a scoreless tie. The mighty Black and Red then went on to defeat the next three challengers, Papillion, Hastings, and Northeast before losing to state champion Southeast in a heartbreaker, 7-0.
After the loss to Southeast the Links traveled to Millard and played an excellent game, dominating both offensively and defensively the Black and Red came out on top 25-7 The next games ruined the Links hopes of a state play-off spot as they came up on the short end of the score against Ralston and North Platte. In the final game the LHS gridders came out on top against crosstown rival East, 7-6, in a defensive battle.
Offensively, senior back Udauk Udofia led the Links in rushing with 535 yards. Another senior back, lborah Umoren, was right behind Udofia with 533 yards. Senior quarterback Dean Carstens led the Black and Red in total offense with 861 yards. Carstens was also the punter, who averaged 35. 1 yards per kick. Th -is was good enough to make him the all-city kicker.
On defense the two linbackers, Mike Fallstead and Randy Hitz led the team in tackles with 99 each. Fallstead also picked off three passes and grabbed two fumbles. In the backfield Darrel Temple, an all-state pick, had five interceptions, Alvin Moore had three, Ralph McWilliams had two, and Warren Nettleton picked off one. Defensive coach Marv Mueller said this was the best defensive backfield he had ever coached.
Six players off the Links 10th ranked team were chosen for the all-city team. They were Carstens, kicker; Udofia, halfback; Temple, defensive halfback; Hitz, offensive tackle; McWilliams, monster, and Dan Lococo defensive end. Temple was chosen as an allstate player and Udofia and McWilliams were honorable mentions ,
Head Coach Larry Frost cited that teamwork, togetherness, and discipline were the main reasons for the successful winning season. Mr. Frost also looks forward to next year with a strong reserve team coming up along with a respectable sophomore team. There will also be 13 returning lettermen. Reserve coaches, Story and Zuspan, and sophomore coaches, Folsom and Tapp, feel that they have many players that will help out the varsity next year.

Reserves Tie For City Ch a
Basic fundamental football with a ve.ry stiff defense to complement the versatile offense !ed the 1976 • Reserve football squad to a 6-1-1 season. This was the best season the JV team has had since 1968. It was good enough to give the Links a tie for the city championship.
Coaches Story and Zuspan both agreed that the strong defense was the main part of the successful season. Coach Story cited that without the driving offense, the defense would not have been as good The offense and defense worked together with perfection.
Sophomore back Doug Moore led the offense with 614 yards. Averaging 5.6 yards per carry, Moore was cited as being a strong , powerful runner as showed in the East game when he picked up 200 yards rush i ng. Others who performed well for the JV's were sophomores Bryan Grell at quarterback, Nkere Udofia at halfback, and junior Gary Kinney at halfback. Tom Fuller did the punting for the reserves and compiled an impressive 38.5 yards per kick.
The mighty defense was led by junior Doug Smith at noseguard who collected 115 tackles throughout the season Both coaches pointed out that Smith was a great asset to the stiff defense. The next closest defender was monster Dave Rapp with 52 tackles. The tough defense held their opponents to just eight points per game.
Th e strong defense of the reserve football team made it possible for them to t ie
for the c i ty championship and end up with a season record of 6-1-1 The coach e~also c i ted that the team used basic fundamental football to win the i r games

Soph Gridders Record Winning Mark
For the third straight season the sophomore football team , under the coaching of Joe Folsom and Lonnie Tapp, posted a 4-2 season. Coach Folsom pointed out that this team had the potential to win all of the i r games.
The Links sophomores opened their 1976 campaign by demolishing the Papillion Monarchs 40-8. -lntra-city competition proved to be too much for the young gridders as they came out on the losing end of the score to both Northeast and Southeast . Coach Folsom cited that the offense fumbled 11 times in the losing cause to the Knights The Sophs then came back to defeat their last three opponents, Millard, Ralston, and city rival East High to finish out their season.
The offense was led by Dave Harnersky, Doug Baer, and Mike Larsen. Hamersky and Baer were the workhorses of the offense Together they carried the ball 142 times and made 492 yards. Larsen, the more shifty of tl:,e three backs, picked up 275 yards on 50 carries in only five games Another asset to the team was split-end Jeff Barron. Barron caught four passes for touchdowns and kicked five extra points for a total of 29 points to lead the team in scor i ng.
The strong defense allowed only 5.8 points per game. The defenders were led by defensive lineman Tony Kreifeis w ith 30 unassisted tackles Mark Murray, a linebacker, had the most overall tackles with 56. Close behind h i m were · Kreifels and linebacker Randy Burianek.

Experience Gained m Harrier Season
The Lincoln High cross country team gathered some valuable experience as the team was led by only two seniors, Jon Salinas and Ken Greer. Coach Harold Scott pointed out that the team had many injuries which hurt the harriers season.
Salinas, the Links' top runner, placed the highest of all the Links runners in seven out of eleven meets. Salinas also won one dual meet, placed second in two duals, and finished well in all of the invitationals Alan Loos, another senior, broke his leg at the beginning of the season and was out most of the year. He tried to come back at the end of the season but had missed too much action .
Junior Theresa Schoonover, the first girl to letter in boys · cross country, found the going tough but did surprise many people during the year. The experience she gained in cross country should help her in girls track this coming season and next year.
As a team , the harriers did do quite well, winning two duals, placing second in the Millard Invitational, and third in the Nebraska Wesleyan Invitational.
Coach Scott looks forward to next year and so do the underclassmen on the team. Mr. Scott hopes that injuries are not a major hazard next year and that all of the runners can perform at their peaks.

Young Netters Gain Much Experience
The young Lincoln High tennis team, as it seems, had an off year But coach Doug Haave cited that much was learned by this season. He also added that the attitude of the players was great and he hopes it will continue next year. Coach Haave also added that if all the players work hard during the off season they will surprise some people.
Dennis Scott, a junior, was the top player for the Links this season. His dual meet record was 3-8 Scott usually played in the No. 1 doubles too. Throughout the year Scott was accompanied by Clark Porter, a junior also, in the No 1 doubles slot. Porter's dual meet record was 4-7. Junior Stuart Schaefer played some doubles with Scott and so did junior Rick Webb Rick Luginbill, the only senior, played No. 1 singles towards the end of the year in the tournaments when Scott was playing No. 1 doubles
In the city tournament play, Scott and Webb were third in No. 1 doubles. In the 1-80 tournament they were sixth in the No. 1 doubles slot. Scott and Porter were fourth in the Trans-Nebraska tourney in the No. 1 doubles position. Sophomore Nick Harms did a respectable job of gathering fifth in the 1-80 tourney and tied for third in the Trans-Nebraska tournament in No. 2 singles.
The team ' s best overall performance was probably in the Trans Nebraska tournament where they picked up fifth place, beating Hastings, who they beat during the season in a dual meet 6-3. In that dual victory Scott won his No. 1 singles match 6-1 and 6-4, Schaefer won the No. 2 singles match 6-3 and 6 - 0 , Porter won the No. 3 singles match 6 - 2, 5-7, and 6-1, and Webb won the No. 4 singles match 7-5 and 6-4. Sophomore Nick Harms gave the Links their fifth team point by winning the No 6 singles match 7-5, 4-6, and 6-3.
Coach Haave cited that due to graduation of the seniors from the other schools, the young netters could be very respectable next year. He hopes that the players keep the good attitude they have had and work hard over the summer and get ready for next season

The season started off good as the gal's won the Ralston Relays easily They did, however, find the city competition to be the toughest except that of Omaha Westside who were state champs once again. During the season many school records were broken by the young girls' team.
Other consistent swimmers for the Links were Cocaptain Joette Larsen , a senior, who did well in the butterfly event , senior Joy Stephens, and juniors Carla McCord , Carol Nun, and Carol Stephens , all performed welt for Coach Cotter.

Young Gymnasts Educe Many Talents
The 1976 boys gymnastics team had a year of rebuilding. Although they won only one dual meet the young gymnasts gained much experience. After losing three seniors to graduation and having only three juniors back, the team looked to the incoming sophomores for help. The team did find relief as eight sophomores reported for action.
Leading the sophomores and performing in the allaround event was Bryan Horacek Horacek was consistent all year in this event as he placed fifth in the TransNebraska •meet, won two duals, and was second in the Grand Island - North Platte triangular. Vaulting was probably the strongest event for Horacek and the Links. He placed fast in four duals, finished well in all the tournaments, including second in the District meet, which enabled him to go to state where he placed ninth. Teammate Scott Fiedler, also a sophomore, was the only other Link to qualify for the State meet. He also qualified in the vaulting event. One of the best performances by Fiedler was in the dual meet against Beatrke where he placed first The two other vaulters for the Links were junior Don Ginger and sophomore John Krebsbach. Both performed well to give the gymnasts a strong vaulting event. Krebsbach also did a fine job on the pommel horse as he showed by finishing sixth in the opening invitational against some fine Omaha schools including state champion Omaha South. Ginger helped out in the trampoline event as well as in vaulting. The other two juniors, Alien Read and Mark Beebout, did very fine jobs in their own events. Read, on horizon tal bar and floor exercise, did a fine job this year and coach Fallstead thinks he will be even better next year. Beebout did a superior job on the pommel horse as he showed by placing fourth in the Trans-Nebraska meet and winning four dual meets. Coach Fallstead feels Beebout has the potential to be one of the best in the city next season.

8-Ball Team Blessed With Great Finish
In the pre-season ratings the Links were in the fifth place spot In the post-season ratings the Links were in the second place spot. Were the sportswriters correct with their predictions at the beginning of the season? It might not have looked so promising all during the season but when the D i strict Tournament rolled a round the Links brought smiles to the faces of many people.
The season started off with two close losses in the first four games. The Links lost their opening game to Hastings by two points then defeated Omaha Westside 66-55 Just before Christmas vacation the Links lost to McCook i n an overtime game by two points and then came back to demolish Beatrice 89-52.
When the District Tournament started the Links had a record of 8-10. When it was all over the Links were 1110 and d i strict champs. In the first game the Links smashed the Beatrice Orangemen by 15 points then beat Southeast in a close battle by two points. In the finals the Links defeated East High and for the first time in 14 years the Links were on their way to the State Tournament.
In the State Tournament the amazing Links were not quite finished wlth their season. in the first round the Links faced top-seeded Grand Island, with a record of 20-1, because of their unimpressive but highly deceiving 11-10 record. Many predicted an opening round loss by the Links but they surprised the field by trouncing the top-rated Islanders by 20 points. In the. second round the Links again came out on top by thumping the Benson Bunnies 68-57. In the championship game the Links faced Omaha Burke, another surprising team in the tournament. The Links bid for the State championship fell five points short 1 66-61.
Leading the Links all season was senior Jerry Heckman For his fine play all season and ' in t~e State Tournament Heckman was named to the all*city, allstate, and all-tournament teams. Heckman was the teams leading scorer with 44 7 points, the top rebounder with 235 rebounds. Heckman was a big asset from the charity stripe $hoot i ng a torrid 74 percent. In the State Tournament Heckman was the second leading scorer in Class A w ith 83 points, an average of 27 7 per game. Other seniors who did great jobs fo r Coach Aldie Johnson this past season were Dean Carstens , Karl Scholz, Robbie Robinson, and Kevin /°'lbers. Carstens was the thi"rd leading scorer with 193 points and was cited for his f ine play and hustle by being chosen player of the game three times and being selected to the second team allcity
Scholz was second in both scoring and rebounds. Robinson was fourth in scoring and shot a good 60 percent from the free throw line Albers d i dn ' t see much action until the later part of the season. He was a big part of the team just from the emotional stand point. Albers was a ·spark plug during the State Tournament.
The juniors were led by Ralph McWilliams and Nate Woods. McWilliams was a fine ball handler for the Links. Woods will return as the teams best free throw shooter which he proved by shooting a blazing 77 percent from the charity stripe.

First-Year Coach Leads Gals To Third
The 1976-77 girls basketball season was a little different especially at Lincoln High. First, they started off the season with a new coach, Mr. B:11 Myers. Second, the state of Nebraska decided to have a state tournament with a wild card system for qualification. The wild card system works in such a way that two teams with good records could get to the state without winning their districts
After finishing their regular season with only two losses in 15 starts the Links lost to East High in the district finals. Since the Links had such a good record they qualified for the state tournament. The team , mostly sen i ors, ended up third in the state.
Leading the team were seniors Robin Hruby and Deb Van Dusen Robin shot a team leading 47 percent from the field and also led the team in rebounds with 167. Robin was named to the all-city team Deb led the team with an amazing 75 percent free throw shooting, 41 assists, and 53 steals. For her fine play she was named to the Class A tournament team. Other seniors who were a b ig part of the Links team were Tedy Bowling, Babe Harre, Lori Hinkle, and Rachel Hillman Tedy was second on the team in steals with 51 Babe was second with a great 74 percent free throw shooting.
Along with these graduating seniors were sophomore Liz Mannix and junior Robin Ginger. Liz was the second leading rebounder for the Links with 104. Robin was a great ball handler for the gals this past season
Coach Myers pointed out that due to the loss of the graduating seniors his team for next season would be a little inexperienced Mr. Myers cited that with the returning girls next year from varsity and reserves , he will have some p r etty good ball handlers and shooters He added that the attitude and desire of the g i rls will always play an important role in the season.

Reserve Girls Gain Needed Experience
With only two juniors on the team, Coach Pat Winblade and her reserve basketball team gained valuabl~ experience in the 1976-1977 season. The young team did win five games out of 13 starts.
The two juniors on the team were Carol Nun and Liz Whyrick. Carol was the team's leading scorer with 99 points and also the top rebounder with 86. Liz was fifth in scoring on the team and was third in rebounds.
The sophomores were led by Jean Matzke, Jill Rump, and Deb Cirksena . Jean was second in scoring with 93 points and she pulled down 73 rebounds which was second best on the team. Jill was the team's third leading scorer with 58 points. Deb was a fine ball handler for the Links this past season.

Tankers Show Improvement All Season
From looking at their record it would appear the Lincoln High swim team had a long season. The dual record for the LHS tankers was 1 - 8-1. They defeated Papillion and tied Hastings. Coach Gene Cotter pointed out that his swimmers gained valuable experience all season long. He also pointed out that the times for all of his swimmers improved a g r eat deal.
The team consisted of only three seniors out of the 17 man squad. John Arenas , Mike Herr, and Alan Loos were the three seniors on the team. Arenas was a strong contender in the shorter races such as the 50 and 100 yard freestyle. He was also part of the 400 yard freestyle relay team which consistently placed in the top three finishers in dual competition . Herr and Loos competed i n the long distance races and did very well all season long for the Links
The diving event was a strong part of the LHS swim team. Junior Allen Read and sophomores Randy Strickler and Bryan Horacek were the divers for the squad most of the season Strickler was probably the best of the three divers. In 10 dual meets Strickler finished first in six of them Strickler ended his season good by finishing ninth in the State meet in the diving event Read and Horacek were consistently placing in the top four in dual competiton.
Sophomore Mark Hammer was the most cons i stent of the swimmers for Coach Cotter.

In all 10 of the dual meets Stacey was second to none in the all-around event. She also placed first in the Trans-Nebraska, 1-80, and District meets in this event.

Grapplers Win City; Show Great Desire
The 1976-1977 wrestling team under first-year head coach, Harold Simpson, compiled a 4-5-1 dual record. This might not look impressive but three of the wins were over the three Lincoln teams which made the Links city champs.
Coach Simpson cited that the seniors on the team were a great asset for the underclassmen The seniors were led by Bob Bousek who ended the season with a record of 21-6 and third in the state. Four of Bousek's losses were to Dick Longoria from Northeast who was the state champ in the 112 pound weight class. Randy Hitz was also one of the top wrestlers for the Links. Hitz finished sixth in the state with a record of 16-10-1 in the heavyweight division. Other seniors who did fine jobs for the LHS grapplers were Doug Simpson, Tom Maxwell, and Mike Scanlon. Maxwell was challenged by sophomore Russ Hitz all season for the 145 pound spot.
Two juniors, Bill Buettgenbach and Bob Warta, battled all year in the 185 pound class for a varsity spot. Almost all of their tryout matches went into overtime.
The Links should be strong next year after a fine reserve team season. Coach Simpson pointed out that the team had great desire and a fine attitude.
Three wrestlers on the LHS team were named as allcity selections They were seniors Mike Scanlon in the 167 pound class and Randy Hitz in the heavyweight class along with sophomore Skip Madsen in the 119 pound class.

Hopeful Season Confronted By Thinclads
The 1977 boys' track team , under the coaching of Harold Scott , based their hopes on some returning seniors and fine underclassmen as they entered the season
Leading the team were seniors Mike Fallst~ad and Steve Shaw in the field ·events, John Salinas, Dan Lococo and Clarence Walker in the distan~e races , and lborah Umoren, who was one of the top sprinters on the team this past season. The top juniors on the squad-this season were Jeff Johnson and Bill Buettgenbach in the weight events, Larry Jones and Tyler Sprouse running the distance races, Greg Quarrels i n the sprints, and Denn i s Scott in the middle distance events Two sophomores, Jeff Barron and Mike Larson, were big parts of this year ' s squad. Barron ran the hurdles and Larson entered the middle distance races.
The season didn ' t start off with a great deal of team success as the team finished last i n both the M i llard Invitational and the Lincoln Public Schools Re l ays Although the team didn 't have great success , there were " some fine ind ividual performances. Salinas , i n the twomile run , Scott in the middle distances, Fallstead in the triple jump, and Johnson i n the shot put were some of the better performers early in the season .
Helping out Coach Scott th i s past year were Mr Jerry Holmberg , ass i stant coach , and Mr B i ll Sto r y, who coaches the weightmen on the squad.

Weights, Distance Tracks t ers Lead Gals
The 1977 season for Coach George Ayoub and his girls' track team was a good one after coming off a second place finish in the State meet in 1976. The team only lost two gal tracksters from that runner-up squad a year ago. Coach Ayoub had confidence in his team as the season opened. He figured they would have great success all season.
The girls' team this past season was led by a strong weight crew and great depth in the distance events. In the weights, the discus was probably stronger than the shot put. Returning in those events was senior Robin Hruby who was a gold medal winner in the discus in last year's State meet as she threw an all-time high in that event with a toss of 144 feet. Robin was also a big asset in the shot put event. Others who performed well on the weight crew this past season were underclassmen Karen Wilson and Julie McEwen. In the distance races, the 880 yard run, mile run, mile relay and the two m il e relay, junior Theresa Schoonover was a big part of the squad. After coming off a brilliant sophomore season Theresa looked even stronger this season. Other fine distance runners were senior Diane Nerud and underclassmen Carol Stephens and Deb Cirksena.
The Links did start the season off on the right foot by winning the Lincoln Public Schools Relays held on April 2nd at Stuart Stadium. The Links were first with 53 points followed by East High with 47, then came Southeast with 36 and Northeast rounded out the field with 32 _points

Newcomers Hope to Fill Varsity Roster
With only three returning lettermen from last year's squad the Lincoln High baseball team entered the 1977 season quite hopeful that the newcoming players could fill in for last year's graduating seniors. The three lettermen returning this past season were pitcher Myron Drent, infielder-pitcher Dean Carstens, and third baseman. Doug Diehm. Joining these lettermen was outfielder Warren Nettleton, a transfer from California just this past year. Carstens , who was named to the allcity team at first base last season , was moved to shortstop for this season.
The team had a tough 14-game regular season schedule along with the Ralston and District tournaments. The tougher opponents for the diamondmen were Omaha Westside, Omaha South, Millard and Papillion , The Lincoln teams were also tough opponents for the Links this past season. Coach Bill Zuspan, starting his fourth year, pointed out that the city championship could have been won by any one of the four schools
Fine performances were turned out by Scott Carlson, first base-pitcher; Mike Schrader, catcher; and Bryan Clark in the outfield. All three of these young men were seniors and will be missed next season along with the three returning lettermen, Drent, Carstens , and Diehm, as well as transfer Nettleton. Of the 17 players on the varsity this past season, only two were underclassmen, Dan Gerlach, junior, who played second base most of the season and Bryan Grell, sophomore, who played left field for the varsity.

JV's, Sophomores Prepare for Varsity
Under the direction of first year coach Larry Frost , the reserve baseball team gained much needed and • valuable experience during their 1977 season. The squad had a tough 17 game schedule in which they played many of the stronger Omaha schools such as Omaha Westside , Omaha South , Millard , and Papillion Out of the 17 game schedule nine of them were against Lincoln schools.
The team was scheduled to play three games in the first w~ek of April but due to some l ate snow these games were set back to a later date The team did get to pract i ce outdoors approximately 12 times before the bad weather hit. Some of the stronger players for the reserves this season were Bob Down , Rod Vlcek , Tom Fuller, and Ron Wise, and sophomores Doug Moore and
Jeff Solomons
The 1977 sophomore baseball team also had a new coach , Jerry LaVelle. Coach LaVelle and his sophomore squad faced a tough city-team schedule with nine games all against Lincoln high school teams. They played each team twice during the season and then played each team once in the city tournament at the end of the season
The sophomore team is a pleasing part of the baseball program in Lincoln. This is the fourth year for the program It gives many young men a chance to play baseball because most would have to be cut if there was j ust varsity and reserve programs. The young men gain a great deal of experience which is needed for future play on the reserve and varsity squads

New Coach And Team Gain Experience
With a new head coach and the loss of only two members from last year's squad, the 1977 golf team headed into their season with anticipation of a turn around from the dismal 1976 campaign.
Coach Bi!I Myers said that he was pleased with the turnout of approximately 20 golfers. Before the · first meet the team held many rou nds of tryouts to determine the top five players on the squad
In the first meet, the Beatrice Invitational, the Links placed ni nth i n the fifteen team meet. The starting five for the first meet were Linus Smith who shot an 85, Nick Harms with an 86, John Hammersky had an 89, Mike Mueller with a 90, and Mark Beebout used 92 strokes in the meet. Hammersky was the on ly senior of the top five players .
The Lincoln High squad was faced with a challenge as two of the toughest teams came from Lincoln. East High and Southeast were two of the State's top teams and the Links faced them many times in their schedule.

LHS Gals Led By Experienced Netters
The 1977 girls' tennis team based their hopes on some fine players who returned from the 1976 team, which finished third in the State Tournament. Along with the returning players the team gained a new coach, Mrs Cheryl Henry. Mrs Henry also coached the reserve volleyball team and girls' gymnastics Both teams had great success and Coach Henry hoped this success would carry i nto the tennis season.
The team had 22 girls report for practice, this included ten sophomores, four juniors and eight seniors. Probably the strongest player on the squad was junior Claudia Anderson who saw action in both singles and doubles play Two other fine players from last year's squad were senior Ruth Fen and junior Andrea Rugg These two saw a great deal of action in the No. 1 doubles spot. Others on the team this year were seniors Marlene Brandt, Babe Harre, Gena Lysko, and Lori Maxfield, and junior Dee Weixelman.
Next year's squad should be fairly strong because of the experience ga i ned by the youn{Jer players on this year's team Claudia Anderson, Andrea Rugg, and Dee Weixelman will be among those returning along with some f i ne sophomores coming back, such as Stacey Porter and Andra Purkalitis.
Bad weather at the end of March and the beginning of April caused some set backs in the schedule but they did practice hard before the bad weathei· struck and were ready to go when they had their first meets.

lntramurals Offer Opportunity For Links
At Lincoln High there is an opportunity for students and off-season athletes in the intramural programs. The two main intramural programs this past school year were weightlifting and basketball.
In the weightlifting program Mr. Bill Story was in charge. Mr. Story said he had a fine turnout with between 35 and 45 students reporting for each afterschool session during the winter months because many were preparing for the spring sports season.
Mr. Jerry Holmberg was in charge of the basketball program this past year. In the sophomore division the LHS team, the Trojans, were the city champs. In the first game they defeated East High and then in the finals they beat the Northeast ball club. Mr. Holmberg pointed out that basketball had the biggest turnout of all the intramural programs Mr. Holmberg also said that the basketball program always has had the largest turnout of all the programs.
Other intramural programs at Lincoln High this past season were volleyball, football, softball, and bowling. There were also days for open-gym sessions on weekends and during holiday breaks.
The action is hot and heavy during this intramural basketball game. Basketba l' had the biggest attendance of all the intramural programs.
This Lincoln High student utilized the new weightroom this past school year. The new weightroom and locker rooms were opened for use this past w i nter sports season.
Volleyball was another favorite intramural program offered at Lincoln High this past year. This student returns a tough shot during a game. •

Former Student Extends LH S T ra diti on
After 26 years under the leadership of William Bogar, Lincoln High turned to a new era-When Sanford Nelson was named principal.
Mr. Nelson cited, as his major goal in his first year as a high school principal, the desire to continue the work of his predecessor in bringing to Lincoln High the "threads" of academic excellence and pride which enable students to achieve self-fulfillment. He stressed the importance of an open and effective sense of communication among students , parents, staff, and community
The new principal observed that, while there has been an absence of any drastic changes in the education system, recent technological advances have led to a new emphasis on equipping students to become responsible decision-makers
"One of the strengths of Lincoln High is the diversity of the student body which is characteristic of the makeup of our society." - Sanford Nelson.

Counselors Help Students Fulfill Potentia
Guidance counselors, because of their close contact w i th the student body , are able to play an influent i al role in any educational system . In high school , the importance of the counselor is magnified by the needs of the students for help in making personal and often complex decisions which may set the course of a person ' s future.
The role of the counselor may range from the distribution of computerized information such as test scores to advice which will make the difference between failure and success The counselor has the awesome responsibility of keeping the student interested in high school and his own destiny. A counselor must have the reasoning ability and compassion to display a personal touch in a process which is , by necessity , a system of mass production.

Arts Offer Students Cultural Fulfillment
Students learn how to express themselves through the fine arts courses. The fine arts include both the visual and musical arts
The visual arts section provides students with an alternative method of expression The classes promote visual awareness on the patt of the student. Students are prepared for hobbies in later life, while a· few of the more talented individuals seek career opportunities.
Mr. Joseph Skutchan, head of the music department, says the music department attempts to, "intro-
• duce a variety of music literature to vocal and instrumental students in order to supply them with the necessary criteria to become effective and intelligent performers, interpreters, and consumers of musical art and to provide them with the means of using music as a recreational part of leisure time."

Better Communication Through English
In order to be understood and to understand others, particularly in this era of mass communication, a person must have the ability to communicate through the English language, both orally and written.
The purpose o-f the English Department is to provide the students with an adequate background in language arts skills These skiils including reading, writing, speech, listening, research, and vocabulary development. Through exposure to the language arts , it is hoped that the student will develop an appreciation for a variety of means of communication. Students are able to explore a wide variety of interests through the elective courses
This year, a special emphasis has been placed on writing ability. This shift from reading to writing based programs was prompted by deficiencies in writing which were spotted.
In order for a person to develop his talents and unique interests fully, it seems imperative that he attain a knowledge of the English language that will allow him to communicate with his fellow citizens. Knowledge of literatu r e will enable anyone to find an area of interest which will be useful as a form of cultural fulfillment if he wishes.

Exploration Through Science Department
Because of the irnmediancy of science to life in the increasingly technical society of today, a person should gain knowledge in this field in order to understand himself and the world around him.
The Science Department attempts to reach the curiousity of the students so that they can gain insight into general knowledge areas , such as biology The elective courses, such as chemistry and physics, prepare students for post-high school study. Lincoln High is one of only a few schools which subscribes to • Harvard Project Physics, which utilizes a multi-media approach to physics

Courses Provide Basic, Intensive Math
The mathematical needs of students currently enrolled in high school vary with the individual from the ability to make simple business transactions to career goals which call for an education in more sophisticated math. •
The Lincoln High Math Department· attempts to confront these demands by providing a solid background in the basics of math
For students interested in a more intensive program , the Math Department offers career-oriented courses, such as computer programming Courses which a student may study independently include: Math Analysis, Logic. Limits, as well as Probability and Statistics
Unfortunately, because no calculus course is currently offered at Lincoln High, students who wish to study this field take a course at the University of Nebraska (at their own expense); calculus will, however, be offered at LHS within the next several years.

Students Learn To Confront Problems
In an interdependent world, tomorrow's leaders need to gain knowledge on current events and past history in order to understand potential problems and their solutions . Responsible members of society must understand how society works ~nd why people do what they do.
The Social Studies Department provides this background .- The courses help students prepare to meet fu -ture social, political, and economic problems
In recent years, the short, topic courses have appeared in a great variety These elective courses give students the opportunity to study their many interests in more depth than is possible in the broad general-knowledge courses. By concentrating on a chosen topic, a course may cover an area of interest in a more humanistic manner, since more time is available for the little things which constitute the human experience.
A unique social studies course offering at LHS is the Educational Participation in the Community (EPIC} program, which offers career exploration and social and psychological development. Students volunteer their services mostly to community agencies.

Some P.E. Courses Not For Jocks Only
Courses in physical education give students the opportunity to learn about recreation, physical fitness, and activities for later life. The courses blend into the regular school curriculum and also involve competitive athletics.
For eight years, co-educational class -a concept which Marvin Mueller, Department Head, described as excellent - have been offered at LHS. According to Title 9 regulations, all sports - with the exception of wrestling - must be offered to both interested males and females
Some courses are not the traditional, more strenuous, physical education classes. Student may gain knowledge related to a career by learning to work with kids. An adaptive physical education course is offered to special education and physically handicapped students Another class concentrates on dance rhythms.
The most popular courses are body conditioning and recreation and games. The department is open to suggestions for additional courses if student interest is shown.

Course Goal· Citizenship Behind Wheel
The automobile plays a major role in modern society. A car, when used in the proper way, can bring satisfaction to the driver; when abused , the privilege of driving can prove fatal to the careless driver as well as other, more responsible, drivers.
Through use of a textbook and a simulator, as well as actual driving experience, the student learns the proper driving techniques He also learns the respon- • sibility which each driver owes to society as a whole ; By taking such a course as driver education , students become potentially good drivers in the inter-dependent world of the highway.
In recent years, the driver education courses have drawn increased interest from the student body - particularly among the girls
No course of any kind is a panacea or should be regarded as such. The quarter classes in the Driver Education Department cannot be regarded as the ultimate safeguard on the highways. The courses in driver education do enable young drivers to improve their driving skills if they wish
Mr Donav on Luedke, driver education, Department Head, ft.leis students should become "good cit:zens behind the wheel."

Courses Promote Scientific Expression
Industrial education applies to an edllcation program of instruction in industrial arts and trade and industrial-technical education.
The purpose of the Industrial Arts Department is to prepare students for employment in a trade, industrial, technical, or service occupation
Industrial education courses attempt to help students in the establishment of a habit of an orderly method of performing a spec ific operation or task. The department wishes to strengthen constructive imagination of a student while helping him form a more precise nature of thought
A student in these classes learns to express his ideas in a scientific fashion and to develop the ability to visualize and see something correctly but from a multiple number of perspectives.
As well as preparing a student for his particular vocation and helping him to decide about a potential career , the Industrial Arts Department attempts to expand his selection of activities or hobbies for his leisure time. The i ndustrial arts classes work to bolster each student's consumer i ntelligence and his appreciation of the work done by industry.
One of the chief objectives of the Industrial Arts Department is the coordination of physical and mental skills. The proper correlation of these sk i lls may be vital to a student who wishes to continue in the industrial arts.

Department Provides Special Emphasis
The Developmental Learning Program (OLP) helps students become self-sufficient in order that they may lead more enjoyable lives.
OLP provides several opportunities which are unique to the high school curriculum because of the special emphasis which is placed on the human factor. The small size of the classes and continuous counseling offer a greater degree of individual help for the student. The use of work-study helps to provide a complete program.
In recent years, OLP has expanded through additional course offerings and expansion of staff to meet the needs of the young. The department also has made use of main-streaming, which is evaluation and integration into other departments.
When a student enters the program as a sophomore, his goals are developed. Each succeeding year, these objectives are re-evaluated and programs are designed around these goals
Marvin Rader, Department Head, has emphasized the importance of the "strong support from the entire faculty" in allowing the program to progress.

Ho me Ee Courses Help Students Adjust
When one sees Rosie Greer and friends placidly rocking their way into the Lite Beer hall of fame for needlepoint, or Alex Karras training for his 1980 challenge of Nadia Cornanici , it becomes clear that the inhibitions which have led to stereotypes of th~ real place of members of each sex have lost some of their influence Home economics, particularly barbecuing and baking classes, are becoming increasingly -popular among members of the more masculine sect.
One of the major goals of the Home Economics Department is responsible management of resource's for an individual and/or family. Home ec courses aid students in adjustment to daily living. Students learn about future employment opportunities. Other objectives of the Home Economics Department include improved communication and responsible decisionmaking.
The Exploring Childhood class allows students to gain practical experience by working in a nursury school. Students explore the methods and philosophies of childgrowth

Language Study Requires Self-discipline
When a student chooses to study a foreign language, he learns the importance of the communication which is often blurred by uncommon languages.
The reasons for student participation in any class or activity are often as varied as the students themselves. Some students take advantage of foreign language courses because they wish to travel. Some use a high school _language class to satisfy college graduation requirements which may be met prior to entrance.
Foreign language classes enable students to develop self-discipline because of the amount of study required to learn a language Some students, learning the intricacies of grammar when studying a language, develop a better understanding of the English language.
The foreign language courses give students the opportunity to attain a level of competency which can satisfy their goals or put them on the road to such knowledge. Courses in French, German, and Spanish through the fourth-year level give students this opportunity through hard work.

B usiness Education Prepares Students
Business plays an important role in any economic system. Competent executives as well as secretaries are needed to help the economy function properly.
The Business Education Department prepares students for entry into a business or vocation and eventual promotion to more responsible positions . The major purpose i s preparation for a career as a business teacher or entry into secretarial school.
The business courses train students to be tomorrow's consumers and business leaders. The feeling is that an individual should obtain an accurate understanding of the business system in order to function intelligently.
The Business Education Department operates a cooperative work program of office education. Those students involved work between 15 and 20 hours per week in offices and receive school credit. Students in this program take a two-hour class related to their jobs

Personnel Provide Necessary Services
Probably the least conspicuous of all segments of the school environment is the group of unheralded members of the faculty who perform services for the students.
It seems that the only t i me one notices the workers in student services is when the heater isn ' t functioning properly or when a person discovers that he has been charged for a book which is totally offensive to his nature.
The service personnel perform the essential tasks which keep the school running smoothly Office personnel work at the heart of the school. Teacher aides act to take some of the pressure off the teachers The library staff keeps the library orderly and are available for assistance so that a student can find t,elp when he suddenly realizes that his semester paper is due tomorrow. The custodians clean up the mess left by the darling students The cafeteria provides cheap meals The JET staff can be helpful when one needs employment
