Lincoln High School 1980 Yearbook

I

A new outlook for Lincoln High There is a distinct odor of fresh paint in the air. The hand rails by the stairs are thinly coated with dust. Numerous hand imprints show evidence that the building has not been vacated. The various rooms are dirty and disorganized. No, this is not the introduction to a mystery story. Rather it is a description of the conditions at Lincoln High while construction of the school was taking place during the year. The planning for the construction began in 1971. In 1974, work began on the exterior windows and doors and on the present library, which was completed in January 1976. In this same year of completion, the Links Mall was started and finished three years later. In the summer of 1979, construction of an eight lane track began and is still going on until next summer, when it is expected to be completed. There is also to be a stadium on the west side of the field, which will seat around 2,000 people, and the

football field will be equipped with an underground sprinkler system. All of the classrooms, starting with first floor, will be reconstructed. They will each receive a new coat of paint, which is chosen by the teacher occupying the room. They will install new blackboards, cabinets, floors, ceilings, doors, and for those classes which require them, new water facilities will be provided. Lockers will also be painted to replace the somewhat dull gray color. There was a faculty committee organized to plan much of the construction. The committee members were: Merrill Peterson, June Klein, Rose Marie Kastl and Kay Sayre. Some students were also selected to voice their ideas concerning plans ·f or construction. Although there was some inconvenience to students and teachers, having to move from room to room as construction progressed, all seemed to adjust very well. Distractions from learning were not of a major proportion.

Mr. Sanford Nelson, principal, was very grateful to the Board of Education for allowing the construction to take place. He stated that often times it is so easy to ignore the older schools, when we should try to make all schools look equally well. He said it is necessary for all schools to have the same opportunity for a good learning environment. The cost to replace the building at Lincoln High School would be $18 million. This would be a much greater expense than will be required to remodel the present structure, which is basically a well constructed, sturdy building. The construction is expected to be completed in the fall of 1981.

Right: Many hours of hard work were spent during the school year with hope of completing the new Oval in 1981 .

Early in the school year the foundation for the eight-lane all weather track was laid.

Yellow, green and white were the primary colors chosen for the hallways of the school. To break up the monotony of solid green, the name of the subject assigned to a particular section of the school will be designed on the wall.

Money crunch A new 280ZX, that exquisite silk dress, or a complex Hi-Fi stereo system-these are all items many high school students dream of owning. However, what we want and things we can afford are two entirely different matters. During the past few years, there has been a steady increase in the number of high school students holding jobs. According to a poll taken by the LINKS staff this year, more than 80 percent of the students surveyed·had a job. Most students worked in fast food restaurants, either as a waitress, waiter, busboy, or cook The large percentage ·of working students seems to indicate their need for money. Society places· a great emphasis on materialistic values. Generally, our desire to outdo our neighbors requires more spending . money. Therefore, the need for high school students to work is much greater. The most common item that students spend their money on is food. This seems to correspond to the fact that the majority of students work in restaurants. Two other popular spending choices are clothing and entertainment. It does seem to be true.that people are much more clothes conscious than ever before. Students are turning more to nice dress pants and nice shirts, rather than old worn out jeans and t-shirts. And of course, students, as well as everyone, are spending mor~ money on gasoline and their cars. Peer pressure influences many young people to spend their money. The old saying "monkey see, monkey do" enters into this concept. Often times, students must buy a product simply because their friends or everyone else has it. Advertisers also seem to have a way of encouraging students to buy unnecessary items. The student is often led to believe that a certain product will make him or her more popular or better liked by others. There also has been a large number of students opening checking and savings accounts. Many are saving up fo~ college or a new car. Of the students surveyed, the majority said they saved between 10-20 percent of their earning wages. The response from students was · about evenly divided when asked if they felt they must give up some luxuries because of today's inflation. Some of these luxury items included: clothes, shoes, cars, candy and records. Taking into consideration all of the pressures relating to materialistic values, it is inevitable that the student must turn to the job market. However, it is still up to the individual to decide what is important when selecting which products to buy.

Often students place a greater emphasis on the appearance of a particular item, rather than its quality and usefulness.

Working at a fast food restaurant, such as McDonalds, is one of the jobs frequently held by high school students.

The need to open checking and savings accounts increases as with the number of students holding jobs and earnings larger amounts of money increases.

Hit 'em hard This year, one of the most respected, dedicated and hard working teachers will be retiring. As a graduate of Lincoln High in 1936, Mr. William Pfeiff has been associated in some way or another with our school for many years. Mr. Pfeiff started teaching at Lincoln High in January, 1946 and began coaching football that next fall. He had previously taught in Norfolk for five years, before coming to Lincoln High. Mr. Pfeiff said he had no regrets in choosing the best school in Lincoln to teach. As he puts it," Once a Link, always a Link" After twelve years of teaching, he acquired an administrative position under Mr. William Bogar, then LHS principal, and held the position through 1978. Last year, he once more resumed his place in the classroom, teaching World Studies. He said the reason he went back to teaching was because he was tired of working at, what he called, the negative end of things. He said he did not have positive contact with the staff and students ahd this bothered him. Mr. Pfeiff likes the idea of working directly with students and he enjoys seeing them achieve. He stated, "I have high expectations of people and I want them to have high expectations of themselves." It concerns him when he sees students that do not seem to want to do anything. He likes to see students become involved in whatever activities they enjoy. He does feel that there are enough students who want to succeed and who will get the job done. During his high school years, Mr. Pfeiff was involved in various activities. Perhaps this is the reason he likes to see students involved. Mr. Pfeiff made up his mind to become a teacher when he was in junior high school. He said both he and life-time friend Mr. Harold Scott, LHS social studies teacher, decided to go into the teaching profession at this time. "I may not have much money in the bank," he said, "but, you can't measure the experiences I have had in dollars and cents." Mr. Pfeiff said one change he noticed about the administrative system over the years was that it had become a lot more complex. He was not quite sure whether this was a better quality or if this made the situation worse. He did feel though that things were not quite as personal as they used to be. He felt there was a loss of contact between the students and staff members. However, it did make him proud to see people who he had watched grow up, come back to Lincoln High and be a part of the administrative team. Two examples he gave were Mr. Jim Sommers, athletic director, and Mr. Sanford Nelson, principal. He adds, "It just makes you feel really good."

Through the years, Mr. Pteitt has seen no maJor changes in the attitudes of students. He feels their sense of values have more or less stayed the same. However, he does feel young people ask the question "Why?" more often. He said, "If they know why, they will generally accept the reason." Why retire? Mr. Pfeiff said he believes students deserve enthusiastic, fired up leadership and he was not so sure he could offer that anymore. He said he has plans to catch up with some routine jobs around the house. He would also like to travel some. He said he has his old dog Coach, who still needs him. He added, "I might even look forward to that first Sunday night when I do not have to come in the next Monday."

"Hit 'em Hard," as stated by Mr. Pfeiff; signifies his concept of getting the job done each day.

Mr. Pfeiff begins relaxing early with his true friend "Coach."

"Reach out to the world to know to grow to love to say yes to life to risk finding your real self'

Come to know yourself Student Life deals with everyday living. It's composed of some success and some failure. It's the good times and the bad. It consists of things you planned and things that just happened. Goals for tomorrow or memories of yesterday all round up the scene of Student Life. Remember cruising O Street? Going to the Friday Night Horror picture? Eating at Mac's? Decorating the school that you rivaled with the most and getting decorated back? Yes, all a part of our school life. Cheers of victory or cries of defeat ring out with the events of Student Life. School spirit built or torn down; Life doesn't end with our failures and it doesn't stop the first time we succeed. Everyday adds new corners to our lives. We will get around a few of these corners and others , we will have to detour- but all add to our lives. A student is someone trying to learn. Life is what he or she learns from. Every star, person or object adds something to our view of life. Student Life is just living. Views are sometimes bitter in life, blackened by bad experiences. There are also times we look with joy upon the things in life we experience. Many find life hard to

Student Life-14

cope with but few people ever fail to survive. In many ways life is a game we play each day. Battling on a see-saw that takes our emotions up and down. Everyone must reach out to his or her world. In doing this we learn and come to know life. We grow with each day building our knowledge of the world. Learning to love or maybe to hate widens our view of what life is all about. We must challenge life. We must say yes and open ourselves up for experience. In the end of this battle we learn who we really are and what life has molded us to be. Life is an overall scale that we build weight upon with each day. If we feel we have succeeded our scale weighs heavy; if we have failed the scale is light and swaying, waiting for something in life to steady its motion and build its empty shell. Each man, woman, child or thing has its place in life. At times they must be an individual and other times they must work together. Every person is a piece to the puzzle called life. When we lose a piece we must find another to fill in the empty space or just keep building around it. A puzzle isn't considered complete without all the pieces. People are the pieces to life's puzzle. Let's find our place and attach ourselves and help build the puzzle of life.

Story in itself This group tells the story of itself. Its dignification comes in the bold black print of the Links' newspaper. The 1979-80 Advocate staff consisted of about twenty students. The majority of them were juiiiors. . Their purpose was to provide an effective means of communkation between the school and the community. Lee Johnson, Advocate sponsor, says, "Our first goal was to serve the interest of the school." Among other goals were reducing the operation's deficit and becoming a self-supporting newspaper.Hopefully, these changes insured the future of the newspaper in case of an overall budget cut. The staff published 12 issues, approximately one every three weeks. This year they also wrote their news from a feature angle. The staff hopes to gain more respect and recognition for their paper as each year goes by. To succeed in their goals, the staff had to spend hard working hours, much concentration, and combine individual and group efforts.

Bookwriting staff The story of this group is told inside the cover of a hard bound book. Two-hundred and twenty-four pages of copy and pictures show how their time was spent. The 1979-80 Links Staff was broken down into seven sections. , The Staff members were: Nancy Wolff, Editor; Kathy Lewis, Faculty Editor; Bill Buntain and Becky Fry, Student Life Editors; Karen Miller, Content Editor; Marcia Richards, Business Manager; Janet Kendra, Underclassmen Editor; Silvia Paegilitis, Senior Editor; Scott Barron, Sara Gies and Dave Heckman, Sports Editors and Dale Nichols, Dave Bourke and Steve Pieper, Photographers. Lee Johnson was the advisor and Teri Bigelow was the assistant advisor. Over the summer Nancy Wolff and Bill Buntain attended a week-long clinic in Hastings, NE, sponsored by the Nebraska High School Press Association. They learned many new techniques in yearbook design and layout, as well as writing, theme, and photography. They brought back these new ideas to the staff and it was decided to implement some of the new techniques in the 1980 Links. The toughest part of the year was keeping a unified and organized staff. Missing copy deadlines and plant deadlines were a couple of the problems that arose but they were quickly worked out and a successful book was issued in May 1980. About the 1980 Links Staff, Lee Johnson commented, "Everyone did a good job at trying to change the yearbook for the best."

Image isn't made up of one group of students, but two. The Literary Board was under the direction of Mrs. Judy Keller and Mr. Jim Larson, and consisted of students of Beth Broman, Kenney Loos, John Link, Terri Mathews, Katie Narveson, Traci Stoakes, Tersa Stoakes and Tami Stoehr. The Artistic Board was led by Mr. George Sedlacek and members were Jill Peterson, Amy Hansen and Kelli Walin. Miss Carolyn Goodwin helped both groups with writing and layouts. Image's purpose was to put out an ~nnual publication of short stories, poems, essays and drawings or paintings. This purpose was realized with May's distribution. The book was funded partially by PSAB and by student efforts. . Goals are set each year by the board members. This year's goals included making an effort to put out a better publication than in previous years and being sure that all

students who had an interest in writing were involved. Board members were chosen in October by the sponsors. After being chosen, meetings were held every few weeks to work on the book When the publication process hit its peak, the staff met daily. Each member of the board also contribute a written or drawn piece to the collection.

Student Council supported American Education Week by participating in a rally at the Capitol.

Active is one word a person could use to describe the 1979-80 Student Council. They were involved in numerous projects that served both the school and the community. Headed by President Kate Kopischke, the group planned Homecoming, the Distinguished Alumni Recognition, Halloween parties for grade schoolers, the Pickle Dance, the Holiday Dance, Sadie Hawkins, a film festival and other projects. They also retook pictures for use in a slide show about Lincoln High and they marched in the American Education Week Rally at the State Capitol. Some members attended the Nebraska Association of Student Council convention in November in Scottsbluff, where LHS council member Carol Junge was elected State Treasurer. The members who attended the convention learned many new ways to improve school spirit and pride. Kopischke felt that this year was great. "I think we have a super council," she said. "Everyone pitched in and we got a lot done." Representing the senior class on Student Council were Louise Sharp; Joel Thornton, Historian; Mike Fen, Vice President; Bill Szaliwiga; Susan Lococo, Treasurer; and Korinna Jones. The juniors were Nancy Oppegard, Carol Junge, Suzanne Peterson, Kate Kopischke and Lisa Venhaus. The sophomore members were Anne Buntain, Lori Guthrie, Lisa Swing, Jana Turpin, Carleen Draper and Greg Hoag. The upperclassmen and the juniors were elected last spring and the sophomores were elected in mid-September. This year there were three non-voting members on the council. They were Amy Hansen, Jeni Turpin and Nancy Gabelman. Buf~rd Grosscup was the sponsor. Overall Student Council had a very busy and productive year ·doing things for LHS and its students.

LHS in government The Student Advisory Board was a group of students who attended bi-weekly meetings to PSAB to discuss student rules dealing with activities and other issues. Special committees were formed to investigate some topics. Lincoln High was very active on the board. The members were: Carol Junge, Mike Fen, Kate Kopischke, Suzanne Peterson, Susan Lococo, Ann Henning and Lori Guthrie. Basically, the Student Advisory Board served as the voice of Lincoln High students who had something to say to the administration. Another government related activity was County Government Day. Fourteen Lincoln High juniors were elected in the beginning of November to take part in the day-long learning session. On November 14, the elected officials went to the County-City building and saw where their county officials worked and what their jobs were. Mer the tour, the students went to the Legionnaire Club for lunch and listened to guest speaker, State Attorney General Paul Douglas.

Steering LHS underclassmen this year were 25 sophomores and 60 juniors. Working with their faculty sponsors, these two groups of students helped their classes achieve goals. Raising money for their treasury was one of the Sophomore Steering Committee goals this year. The group funded itself by selling M&M's in school and concessions at football and basketball games. Leadership in the committee consisted of Lori Adams, President; Anne Buntain, Vice President; Bobbie Reid, Secretary; and Eric Purkilitis, Treasurer. Louise Baugher and Dick Patterson were the sponsors. Prom was the main topic on the Junior Steering Committee's agenda. Other projects the juniors were involved in were selling spirit buttons and bumperstickers along with assisting in graduation and Baccalaureate. The officers were Jerry Gray, President; Mike Patterson, Vice President; Laurie Cirksena, Secretary; and Jill Wiese, Treasurer. Jerry Neff and Tom Pappas were the sponsors for the junior class. Both groups put forth a lot of effort in order to fulfill their goals. In the words of one committee member the Steering Committees "brought the class together and let students take part in school activities."

Medical Club explores health fields We all know that the average field trip is enjoyable, exciting and all around fun. Well, if you enjoy field trips you should have been a member of the 1979-80 LHS Medical Club. The interest in the club grew this year to fifteen members. Going on a field trip once a month to a medical-related place served as their meetings. The purpose of the group was to make interested students aware of the health,related professions that are available. Sponsor Mrs. Carol Epp said, " It is interesting working with the students involved in this club. It is also interesting to see the different health areas that are changing all the time."

Comrades help students adjust to LHS Comrades is a Lincoln High group that most LHS students have, at one point in their high school life, some contact with. Formerly known as Coed Counselors, their purpose is to introduce new students to the school. They do this in many ways. Early in the year they held a sophomore orientation. Other activities were giving tours of the school, having student get-togethers and during the Alumni Weekend, they were in charge of escorting alumni around the school. Comrade President Ruth Boham reflected on her year saying, "My time was well spent. I wish more people would havE been involved."

Seniors·

Involved Were you one of those students going to a bizarre meeting the second Wednesday of each month? If you were then you were one of the active members of the Senior Steering Committee. Bizarre was a good word to describe this group because of its size. The well-organized group had a blasting membership of approximately 60 students. In the •past years the committee consisted of around 20 members. Members became involved by a voluntary sign-up in the counselor's office. They were warned that the faculty sponsors, Mrs. Alma Howdeshell and Dr. Jean Kleitsch, reserved the right to remove any member who failed to meet his or her obligations. Two of the main goals set for the steering committee were Joy Night and selection of the class gift. Joy Night, entitled 20th Century Live, was held on the evenings of January 17 and 19. Tammy Preston took charge of this LHS event by being student director. Entirely student directed, Joy Night consisted of acts. These acts were selected from a larger group of acts that tried out. In addition, the faculty performed their traditional act.

"Anne Frank" termed a success

Miep trys to comfort Mr. Frank as he reads his daughter :'nne's diary.

Mrs. Frank assures Anne that she has only had a nightmare, as Mr. Dussel looks on with disgust.

During World War II, many Jewish families escaped Nazi invasion in Germany and Holland by taking refuge in hiding places in non-Jewish homes and buildings. Anne Frank, a young Jewish girl, kept a diary of her family's struggle to live in such a hiding place. "The Diary of Anne Frank," Lincoln High School's All School Play, successfully portrayed the joys and heartaches of the Franks. Leslie Forbes played the role of Anne Frank and won the heart of the audience. The play was presented on November 8 and 9. High levels of emotion and tension made it an excellent production. LHS Drama Instructor, ·Joan Lazurus, was the director. Student Director was Mikki Drees. Rounding out the cast were: Amy Thone, -Miep; Audrey Oboyle, Mrs. Van Daan; Brian Everman, Mr. Van Daan; Kent Holbert, Peter Van Daan; Tom Hinshaw, Mr. Frank; Hillary Doerr, Mrs. Frank; Michelle McCann, Margot Frank; Lance Purdy, Mr. Kraler; and Scott Haller, Mr. Dussel. With so many underclassmen in the cast, Lazurus feels LHS will have a fine future of quality dramatic productions like "Anne Frank"

Mummers continue ACTion "Put some drama into your life" was the theme for 65 Lincoln High students involved in Mummers this year. Mummers provided an opportunity for people to meet one another at the beginning of the school year when they held their annual get acquainted "Welcome back to school picnic" at Antelope Park. Besides the picnic, the group held a Halloween Party, a Holiday Gift Exchange, and other social events. Mummers Sponsor Joan Lazurus said, "Mummers is for people who know a lot about drama and those who don't." She added, "Ifs a great group to get involved with."

The main goal for Mummers was to put on the annual Mummers play in the spring. In order to try out for the play, a prospective cast member had to be a Mummers' member. To be in Mummers, a member had to earn one Mummers point for each month he was a member. One point was equal to 10 hours quality work in the drama field. · The officers of Mummers this year were Hillary Doerr, president; Mikki Drees, vjcepresident; Tammi Preston, secretary; Kelly Ellenwood, treasurer; Scott Haller, historian; Lynda Fagerberg, publicity chairperson; Kim Brown and Kim Sandberg, librarians. Mummers worked on several projects this year. They sold buttons with "Put some drama into your life" printed on them, attended a drama convention in Omaha and used their performing skills in Outreach. Outreach was a committee that went to organizations outside of the school and performed puppet shows, creative dramatics work shops and story telling. At times they were performing twice a week Over Christmas, they presented the play "The Grinch Who Stole Christmas" to grade school children. • As to Outreach, Lazurus felt it was wonderful to see LHS kids performing with children. Mummers was one of the largest and most diverse clubs in school. It offered something for anyone who was willing to get invo.lve~ with drama.

It's hot in the shade The Lincoln High School Music Department presented their annual musical March 27~ 28 and 29 in the Lincoln High Auditorium. "110 in the Shade," a musical comedy, was directed by Vocal Music Instructor Joseph Skutchan. . The musical takes place in a drought stricken Western town. A bachelor hunting girl, Lizzie, seeks to find the man just right for her. ·she meets up with the fabulous Starbuck who claims himself as being the Rainmaker, and that's when all her problems, triumphs, and heartbreaks began. Mr. John Ulrich and his orchestra provided the instrumental music while Skutchan' s singers provided the voices for such memorable songs as "Raunchy," "A Man and A Woman," and "Everything Beautiful Happens at Night." Choreography was by Anne Buntain. Most of the cast members also were members of the LHS Concert Choir which also was directed by Skutchan. The Concert Choir allowed students who were interested in si_ nging to practice and per-

form. Membership was by audition only. Most members were selected during the preceding spring, but some were added over the semester break The group performed at several events including All-City Choir Night.

Peppers lend support "Hey Links ... somebody's callin' your name," was a familiar cry heard at many sporting events. Who was that somebody? That someBODY was Pep Club, the larg· est club at Lincoln High. Co-sponsors Sally Roper and the pep club officers Mickie Bechtolt, President; Connie Carlson, Vice President; Lisa Thaller, Secretary; and Sue Rengstorf, Treasurer; met over the summer to set the goals and plan the activities for the 197980 school year.

Improvement was always on the minds of the girls. Peppers were assigned to spirit squads for the fall sports season and were allowed to chose their own squad for winter sports events. Each girl was required to make locker signs, attend sporting events and other contests to earn the minimum 43 points per season. Basically, Peppers received one point for every hour of participation. Many girls put in more than 80 hours throughout the year supporting their teams.

Renee Aupperle, Lisa Thaller and Nancy Vader cheer for their favorite reserve football players.

Ann Henning claps to the beat.

Spirit maintained "Fostering school spirit, guiding people in routines for team spirit and familiarizing people with members of the teams are our goals," says Chee~leading Sponsor Molly Spinar. Fifteen Lincoln High School girls make up the two squads known as Varsity and Reseve Cheerleaders. These girls participate in spirit week, pep rallies and LHS athletic team games and meets. The Varsity squad consisted of 10 seniors. They were Darlene Berks, Sara Gies, Ann Henning, Karen Lococo, Susan Lococo(president), Marcene Metzger, Silvia Paegilitis, Deb Schmalken, Lisa Vetter and Janelle Wiese. This year the varsities went to a clinic held at Lake Ojoboji in Iowa. There, they learned routines and chants to help them perform throughout the school year. The Reserve squad was made up of five junior girls, Leah Shaw, Kate Kopischke, Lisa Scott, Laurie Cirksena and Shelly Searcey. Reserve clinics were held at Junction City, Kansas. These girls perform many of the same things the varsity squad do. They' re smaller but their spirit is mighty. Very little school funding is given to the Cheerleaders. The girls must buy their own uniforms and spend money for many other things throughout the year. This year car washes, selling T-shirts and lucky pennies were all big fund raisers. Energy and time was put out by all the girls in order to build school spirit. Working hard with these 15 girls was Mrs. Spinar. This was actually her first full year working in this field, although a couple of years ago, she replaced a sponsor for about half of a year. Her comment toward the whole activity was "I feel lucky because I work with neat kids." .

Practice makes Pomalinks Performing at pep rallies, marching at the State Fair-and attending summer clinics were only a few of the 1979-80 Pomalink activities. The Drill Team was composed of eight senior and ten junior girls. After tryouts last spring, the squad met to decide on their uniforms, when to meet and which clinics to attend. Half of the girls went to the American Drill T earn Association Clinic at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and the others went to the National Cheerleaders Association workshop at Nebraska Wesleyan. After the clinics were over, the group got together three times a week during the summer to teach and practice new routines. • The drill team started performing early in August when they marched in the Shrine Parade. They als~ marched with the LHS Marching Band at the Nebraska State Fair in September. At the fair, the Pomalinks performed to the song "Rubber Band Man" three times. Their first in-school performance was at the North Platte pep rally. Throughout Football and Basketball season, half time crowds were entertained by the Pomalinks. Beside performing, the drill team was also a part of pep club. Each member had to make locker signs and attend various sporting events to obtain enough pep club points. The officers of this year's team were Carolyn Rexilius , President; Marcia Richards, Vice President; Faith Miller, Secretary /Treasurer. The rest of the squad included Kim Brown, Chris Burbach, Pam Burger, Linda Dickey, Cindy East, Dawn Ginger, Korinna Jones, Cindi Life, Candy Mehan, Karen Miller, Susan Searcey, Barb Sears, Lynn Strange, Debbie Todd and Nancy Wolff. Meeting people and making new friends was one way junior Faith Miller benefitted from her involvement with drill team. "It's a way to get to know a different side of students," said fourth-year Pomalinks Sponsor Cheryl Gadeken. Gadeken was aided by co-sponsor Jane Moody. All and all, drill team had a successful year.

Two days of celebration The 1979-80 Homecoming proved to be a special event for many. Changes were made this year to improve this activity that took place on October 5 and 6. Homecoming started with the invitations sent out to guest alumni. These alumni were LHS graduates. They were people who had succeeded or should we say experienced a job well done. The honored alumni were: Paul Amen '34, Ralph Beechner '26, Edwin Faulkner '28, Ted L. Gunderson '46, Barbara Lautzenheiser '56, Shirley Marsh '46,John Robinson '61, RobertG. Volz'50,Herman Rohrig' 36, Emmanuel Wichnow '27, Dick Cavett' 51, and Mary Jo Hann '36. A special alumni dinner was held on Friday. There also was a morning assembly for all LHS students and staff in which the alumni were honored. Later in the afternoon, a pep rally was held in the auditorium. The cheerleaders cheered and the Pomalinks performed along with the band and flag corps. The hidden school spirit seemed to come out of the woodwork and the whole school became electrified, ready for the big game.

The evening of October 5 was sort of a block for everyone's spirit when LHS lost to Grand Island to a score . of 14 to 0. The Homecoming Court was introduced at the football game, giving parents a chance to view the activities. The court consisted of King Scott Barron and Queen Marcia Richards. The attendants were Craig Mulligan, Janelle Wiese, Dwight Dumpert, Susan Lococo, Anietie Udofia, Nancy Wolff, Bruce Crowther and Karen Lococo. Homecoming came to an end on the evening of October 6. It closed with a dance with music by the group Buckeye. Seniors have left, juniors only a year to go, and sophomores look ahead, but all still know there's always a place tomorrow for their Homecoming. This years Homecoming was planned by a faculty .special committee. Thanks goes to Dr. Charles Jones, Mr. Bill Pfeiff, Mr. Harold Scott, Mr. Lee Johnson, Miss Betty Heckman, and Mrs. Merrel Grant. Student committee members were Marcia Richards, Derrick Hull, Korinna Jones, and Kate Kopischke.

Venture is a group of students and teachers from all four Lincoln high schools. Their purpose is to open peoples' eyes by acting out skits depicting everyday living situations. These skits concern what's happening in the community, in the school and in everyday life. This year, Venture was not as active at LHS at it has been in the past. For those who have seen Venture or been a part of it, they realize the effect that skits can have on people. Venture held a retreat at St Paul Methodist church on Saturday March 8. Tammi Preston, Venture member said, "This meeting was to get new members in Venture. and to get the group organized again." Meetings were held once a week to practice skits and talk about related Venture activities. February was Black History Month at Lincoln High. A committee headed by Dr: Charles Jones was formed in the beginning of the year to decide what activities would be included in observance of the special month. In years before, an assembly was held to recognize blacks who made significant achievements to society. There were also sound announcements. This year there was no assembly and due to the construction in the office, there were no sould announcements, but there were several displays in the media center alcove. Art work and books were just a few of the items made visible by this committee. One of the main purposes of this group was to make the school aware of important events in the history of blacks. Although the committee had several obstructions in its way, they were able to give Lincoln High a view of Black History.

L-Clubs back varsity athletics L-Clubs this year were involved in supporting varsity athletics. To be in L-Club, a member had to earn a varsity letter in any sport. • Boys L-Club was led by Bruce Crowther, President; Bill Szaliwiga, Vice President; Joel Thornton, Secretary; and Nate Udofia, Historian. "Nowadays, L-Club is just another club. It's not the spirited group it used to be," said Crowther. He hopes to get L-Club going again. "If we plan something, I want to get it done," he addeq. One of the main functions of both girls and boys

L-Club is the spring All-Sports Banquet. Boys L-Club sold programs at football games and the Boys State Gymnastic Meet as well as selling concessions at boys basketball games to raise money for the banquet. The Girls L-Club officers were Anne Draper, President; Darlene Berks, Vice President; Sara Gies, Treasurer; Ruth Boham, Secretary; and Jolynn Densberger and Deb Schmalked, Historians. . To raise money, the girls sold candy at the beginning of the year and planned other fund raising activities for their part in the All-Sports Banquet.

It's a new look The 1979-80 Debate T earn had an allaround change this year. Remodeling of this LHS activity began with a change in teachers. New Debate Sponsor Mr. Al Lawrence, a former Lincoln Leaming Center faculty member, began his first year at LHS this past school term. Travelling from state to state and from town to town were Lawrence's successful debate teams. Eight LHS students were divided into four teams. They were Greg Wawryszczuk and Jerry Leever, Kris Miller and Kyle Baker, Cindi Life and Ron Buskirk, and Jennifer Luethje and Emily Wawryszczuk One change for the debate team this year was a cut in their yearly budget. To try to keep this cut from affecting the team substantially, they were invoved in money making projects and they also rode the same bus with East High School when they went to out of town tournaments. The bus pool allowed the team to save money and participate in more tournaments. Growing and becoming a more visible activity, LHS debaters showed their strength on Friday March 7 at the District Debate Tournaments held at Nebraska Wesleyan. Greg Wawryszczuk and Jerry Leever placed eighth in competition with debate teams from all over the area.

LHS Orchestra-the Sound of music

The LHS Orchestra, under the direction of John Ulrich, was one of the best high school orchestras in the state.

Everyday during sixth period, the orchestra played and played.

"This year we had the finest high school orchestra in the state," enthusiastic Orchestra Director John Ulrich said. During State Music Clinics held in November, Lincoln High had the most students (18) participating and the highest percentage of students attending who tried out. Lincoln High Orchestra members who were chosen to attend were: Donna Carnes, Claire Mikkelson, Katie Narveson, Beth Broman, Claudia Herzog, Hillary Doerr, Audrey Oboyle, Brenda Frank, Mike Herzog, Kim Brooks, Mark Tuttle, Mark Benson, Jeff Gaines, John Ellis, Scott .Haller, Jon Paul, Tom Hinshaw and Paul Beum. "Orchestrally, LHS was a dominant force," stated Mr. Ulrich focusing on competition. "The State Clinic was a terrific showcase for the kids." A few orchestra members were selected to be on various honor groups throughout the year and they performed at Hastings and Wesleyan. The string section of the orchestra went out on their own and performed at the • Distinguished Alumni banquet in the fall. At the beginning of the year, Ulrich set a high goal to be the best orchestra in the state and now he feels he has reached it. Ulrich feels, "We are competing against excellence." Many members of the orchestra attended summer music clinics in Colorado, Kansas and Nebraska. The students learned more and perfected their playing skills. But Ulrich pointed out, "More than musically, I want to turn these students into responsible, trustworthy and conscientious nice people."

LHS Band-now that's entertainment Blaring notes, beating drums, flashing brass and the stunning red, black and gold uniforms announced a proud LHS band of 120 students. Many hours of practice were put in by this group to perfect 40 or 50 tunes. Songs such as Championship, Rubberband Man and Bugsy Malone were among the favorites played. To qualify as a member of the marching band, the students had to tryout or be a returning var· sity band member. Attending all extra early morning practices also was a requirement. Mr. John Ulrich, second year band sponsor and instructor commented, "Our goal was not to lose any gerund because of the change in the class schedule. I think we had the potential of being a very good marching band." Mr. Ulrich added, "Our potential, I feel, was not put to full use because of weather conditions and other conflicts such as the usage of the field."

Consistency was the theme for the 1979-80 Jazz Ensemble. Ensemble Director John Ulrich felt the band played better than last year because they didn't have one or two people that dominated the group. More players were concerned about the group as a whole. Playing at many functions, the Jazz Ensemble was a very popular LHS musical group. The ensemble performed at the Sertoma Club pancake feed, school ·concerts, a dinner for Irving teachers and an All:City Jazz contest just to name a few. They also held exchanges with college bands where each group would come to the .other's school and play. Besides performing well, Ulrich has set a goal for all members of Jazz Ensemble, "I want these kids to learn something musically they can enjoy all their lives." The members of the Jazz Ensemble were: Mark Benson, Paul Beum, Aaron Drake, Jack Bottger, Linda Mah, Eileen Nettleton, Jeff Gaines, John Ellis, Phil Nally, Kristi Pfeifer, Mike Wright, Dave Eilers, Bob Lyons, Barry Townsend, Alan Worster, Greg Kats, Renee Johnson, Pam Burger, Tim Yontz, B. J. Hughes, Will Sahs and Brenda Frank Prep Jazz was open to anyone interested in jazz music. They played music ranging from Rock to Blues. This group was the training group for varsity jazz ensemble, the best players in this group would move up. Members of Prep Jazz were: Gina Connett, Sheri Davidson, Ben Mientka, Robert Ingram, Mark Morton, Gary Walker, Willie Boles, Mike Krebsbach, Vicki Gabriel, Robin Jordan and Rick Kubicek

Yuletide feaste, evening of cheer Have you ever been to a performance where the paying audience actually turned out to be part of the performance, by being played the fool? How would you like to pay $5.00 or more to watch a musical performance and during it have beggars walking around begging for money or even food off your plates? Many of you may be turned off but don't be. The 1979· 80 Madrigal Yuletide Feaste was a total success. Tickets to this event numbering 170 a night sold out for both perform· ances. The feaste was held November 30 and December 1 at 7:00 p.m. lt may well have been said to be one of the most enjoyable musical activities put on this year. Singing an arrangement of Christ· mas music were the 16 members of the Lincoln High School Madrigal Singers, they were: Ruth Boham, Kim Brown, Bruce Crowther, Deni Disney, Tim Draper,

The vocal director of these students was Joe Skutchan, LHS staff mem· ber. The Yuletide Feaste, centering around music, comedy and a five course meal was the main performance of the madrigals. Some of the music performed during the feaste was "All Ye Who Music Love," "What Child is This?," "The Holly Carol," "Thinks't Thou Then Be Thy Feigning," "Since First I Saw Your Face," "God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen,"" Coven· try Carol," "Catalonian Carol," "When My Rich Husband ls at Home," and "We Wish You a Merry Christmas.'' They also had a sing along for the audience singing, "Joy to the World," "The First Noel," "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing," and "O Come All Ye Faithful." The Madrigals practiced every day dur· ing first period. They also put in extra hours of practice every night of the week before their Yuletide performance. Be· sides the Yuletide Feaste, performances were held at school and community functions. Mr. Skutchan, their director commented, "I think this has been a fantastic, marvelous, cooperative group for the first one. The Yuletide F easte was one of the best experiences that I've had in my whole teaching career." L.H.S. is proud to have such a grand musical group representing their school!

Glee Shines

These girls strain to hit a high note.

Girls Glee was for girls who loved to sing.

The 1979-80 Advanced Girls Glee was a new group that was addect to the LHS music program this year. The group is made up of 16 LHS girls. Cindy McMahan, Candy Mehan, LeAnn Morgan, Karen.Patocka, Cindi Pfeil, Donna Phillips, Patty Reed, Caren Richards, Julie Scaggs, Katie Schizas, Meg Schultz, Kim Shafer, Connie Sherwood, Leah Siebert, Marquita Malley, and Julie Williams were all vocal members of this singing group. Mrs. Julie Knowles was the vocal director for these girls. They sang in various places this past year. One of their main outings was when the Northeast Girls Choir came here and sang in the fall and in return our Advanced Girls Choir went to Northeast to sing in the spring. Many of the girls also participated in acts for Joy Night. This group does not receive a lot of recognition from the school but hopes to build their popularity as they go along. Julie Knowles said, "They're a very well-balanced group and have a very mature sound. They sing well together."

These students spend many hours of deep-hearted practice to perfect their work If you've ever seen them it shows! Besides in-class practice, these students also go to music clinics and some are even involved with.summer music_camps held out of state. Mr. Joseph Skutchan is the musical director of the sophomore swing choir. Commenting about his group • Skutchan said, "This is the first year that I used four parts and it went very well. They learned their music very quickly." Susan Nichelson, Amy Ellenwood, Mary Morrow, Cheryl Sterling, Kathy Andrews, Kate Szalawiga, Peggy Gaube, Ellie Gies, Gerald Henderson, Mick Dyer, Clay Schonberger, Paul Virus, Todd Hildenbrand, Rick Albertson, Mike Steele and Ken Hammer were the members of this sophomore singing group. Their practice was held each day during sixth period. Performances were held this year at.the governor's mansion, for the master's luncheon and various other places including the school. The varsity swing choir members are Randy Ayres, Anna Baker, Scott Barron, Mickie Bechtolt, Liz Burden, Diane Clark, Kelly Ellenwood, Jim Gaube, Kevin Kaea, Joni Longan, Steve Novak and Paul Smith. This singing group was under the direction of Mrs. Julie Knowles. Knowles said "They're a very talented and organized group. They' re in great demand as a performing group." Practice is held for this group during seventh period of each school day. They practice different types of music and also practice choreography. Performances were held at places like Gateway Mall, Pancake Feed, Governor's Mansion and for civic and community organizations. Some of the students performing with these groups will use the background with the swing choir as a·basis for a musical career. For others music will stay an enjoyable pastime. Music enlightens the hearts of many and leaves very few untouched. Having such popular musical groups adds life to LHS. Varsity Swing Choir sings and swings while entertaining.

International Club explores

International Club was represented at Nebraska Model United Nations .

Learning new cultures, exchanging travel experiences, and broadening cultural awareness in Lincoln High and the community were some main projects of the 1979-80 International Club. According to President Deni Disney, the year got off to a good start as students shared their trips abroad through slides and movies. Club parties were also held to get students better acquainted. International Club was active in the Nebraska Model United Nations held at the University of Nebraska in February. Representing the country Romania in discussion and debate, like the real United Nations, were Deni Disney, Ann Creamer, Kelly Ellenwood, and Ruth Boham. Other planned activities in~luded working with the Education Equity Committee in setting up a display case of translated poems and posters, and talking about different cultures to a Blue Bird troop who was

celebrating an international year. The club met once a month with sponsors Mrs. Molly Spinar and Ms. Kathy Brauer. Club officers other than Disney were Katie Schizas, vice-president; and Ann Creamer, treasurer-secretary.

Aqualinks synchronize their strokes.

Unified talent is seen in the LHS Aqualinks show.

Aqualinks-A touch of class "A Touch of Class" was the theme for the 1980 Aqualinks. AquaUnks is the name for the LHS synchronized swimming club. To be a member, girls must try out in mid-January. Before tryouts, clinics are held after school to teach strokes and dives. Some girls have also taken synchronized swimming class. During the actual audition, the girls perform a variety of stunts in front of a panel of judges composed of the four Aqua link officers and the faculty sponsor. Jolynn Dennsberger and Susan Searcey pertorm some graceful stunts.

This year 19 girls make up the squad. The officers are Barb Sears, President; Sara Gies, Vice President; Karla Gish, Secretary; and Lisa Vetter, Scenery Chairperson. Other members include Denise Varner, Jody Jones, Suzy Marlette, Susan Searcey, Patty Reed, Jolynn Dennsberger, Anne Buntain, Suzanne Peterson, Sue Dempsey, Lori Guthrie, Renee Aupperle, Deb Todd, Leann Morgan, Marcene Metzger and Karen Lococo. Mrs. Opal Stoehr was the sponsor. Tryouts for the senior solo and duet along with junior trio were held in February. Music for this show ranged from classical Gershwin to the theme from the movie "The Wiz." Aqualinks President Barb Sears said, "The girls this year are working as hard or harder than last year." , Although limited on practice time, Sears felt, "This year's show should have been the best we've ever had."

Club for everyone What used to be the Horticulture Club has now become FFA, Future Farmers of America. The dub, made up of LHS students interested in agriculture, met once a week to discuss competition and field trips. Studying plants in the classroom greenhouse and participating in "hands on" farm work, gave members excellent opportunities to learn about possible futures in farming. These Future Farmers of America expanded their learning experiences when they became involved in various FFA tournaments. At district competition held at East Butler High School in Brainard, Nebraska, Bob Pierce received a white ribbon in wildlife speaking. Clover Merkle received a blue ribbon for second place in a speech on Bio-Mass as a future energy source. Art Club was an organization for students who expressed an interest in art. Activities at meetings varied. Many people entered their projects in competition. Some members turned in art work for Image magazine. The dub also gave students a chance to work on projects they were creating in art classes. For seniors interested in art as a career, club sponsors helped them chose schools or institutes to attend for further training. Art Club was sponsored by Mrs. Anne El-Omani.

Art Club members work on various projects.

LHS Dances-Crazy and Enjoyable Remember the times that everyone was crowded together, the music was blaring and people were acting crazy? No it wasn't the local neighborhood party. It was a school dance. Dances were sponsored by such groups as Student Council, L-Clubs, Pep Club, Steering Committee, and also special groups as the sponsors of Turkey Ball. These activities either took place in the school gyms or · some room rented outside the school. Generally records were played and occasionally there was a disc jockey or even a live band. Actually dances made a rather enjoyable and inexpensive evening. Prices generally ran a dollar or maybe a little more. The only expensive dances were the formals which were well worth the approximate $5.00 per couple. Dances were well worth the time and effort that was spent in getting them ready. Next time you're depressed or lonely try going to a Lincoln High dance.

These students think they're on American Bandstand.

LHS hosts variety performers On October 31 , 1979, Lincoln High School had the honor of watching an "Up With People" performance. It was held in Johnson Gym. They performed a variety of country, popular, gospel and rock music. One of the main features of this group was involving the audience in their performance. " Up With People," made up of five hundred students coming from 23 countries around the world, is a song and dance group known throughout the world. The group is made up of people ranging from 18 to 26 years of age and coming from all walks of life. " Up With People" is a non-profit organization. Each cast member had to pay $4,500 in order to participate. These people travel in groups of 100. Being an " Up With People" member is not as easy as just saying " I want.to join." Each member must go through an interview in which he or she is screened. The cast is picked mainly on personality but leadership, maturity and love for others are characteristics that members should have.

Work has just begun after making the •cast. In July, each member reports to Tuscon, Arizona where they stay for five weeks practicing 12 hours a day six days a week. Each member must keep their appearance up at all times. The group is in the public eye and is representative of young people everywhere they go. When they leave Arizona in August, they travel to perform in prisons, nursing homes, auditoriums, parks and many other places. Something next year will be of special interest to Lincoln High. Lincoln High Senior Becky Fry will be touring with the group.

"Up With People" is all people.

Lincoln High received a warm welcome from the cast of 100.

" To me it's an education and that's why I went into it," said " Up With People" Cast Member Randy Hamilton of Tuscon, Arizona.

"Up With People" involves everyday situations with their music.

Fans are devoted The Boys Swimming and Wrestling Auxiliaries spent much of their time making locker signs and attending competition this year. Both groups were organized by students who were interested in promoting school spirit and assisting the coaches. The auxiliaries aren't a part of pep club, they set up and follow their own rules. The Swimming Auxiliary helped coach Gene Cotter out by timing, working the recall ·rope, place judging and makif)g the team various edibles for their swim meets. The Wrestling Auxiliary, also known as the LHS Mat Maids participated in wrestling meets by·helping the coaches and attending the tournaments. Both Boys Swimming and Wrestling teams felt the auxiliaries gave them support and were beneficial.

The most difficult thing in life is to know yourself. -Thales

-----------------------------~ This past year the Lincoln High media center was a main • topic of conversation among students. Librarians, finding references diminishing, instituted strict regulations for checking out books and magazines. Other rules enforced more severely this past year included keeping a quiet atmosphere, no food or drinks allowed, and a new pass check system. Enforcing these I rules with fines, checking in passes, and a new detection system was a big job that required hard-nosed individuals. Many students, however, rebelled against the strict system complaining that the library was no longer "theirs" and they weren't allowed to take advantage of it under the new regulations. Many were enraged by the new "airport terminal" detection sensor, feeling it was an infringement of their rights. When this year's seniors were sophomores, the library was only a year old. Students were very proud of the brand new addition. This respect dwindled as time went on. Many students took advantage of the library for the wrong reasons. References started disappearing and librarians were faced with a real problem of disappearing books. A lot more credit is due to those individuals who made an effort to give Lincoln High's media center the name it used to have, by offering a quiet, complete study area for students.

@mfr fr@ Ilrnrn~Du Did you ever notice how the clock seems to move much slower during fifth period? We wait in anticipation, checking it every five minutes, until 12:30 finally arrives and it's time to once again make the decision of where to go for lunch. You'd better choose fast, for eve·ry second of the thirty minutes allowed is needed to drive to the destination, order, eat, and be back in class. Open campus is very popular at Lincoln High. Some favorite spots include McDonald's, Arby's, Wendy's, Godfather's, Super Sub, Sam's, Dairy Queen, and Burger King. Others choose to eat at the Lincoln High · cafeteria, on the patio, or in the mall on nice days. Although the first floor cafeteria is easier to get to, some complain that it's even hard to wait in line and eat in only half an hour there also. Lincoln High's cafeteria offers government approved type A lunches consisting of three dishes and. a half-pint of milk representing the four basic food groups. Desserts, doughnuts, and ice cream are also offered. Even with a!l this choice, many Links prefer to take to the junk food palaces and hope for a parking place when they return!

Ever hear of the Mime Troupe? Ever hear from the Mime Troupe? No one has ever heard a mime. Mime is acting without saying anything, using only exaggerated motions, "robot movements", dance steps, and lots of facial expression. "Mime can usually be done in one spot, depending on the skit." said captain Justine Johnson . ." Practiced mimes can walk (go through the motions) without going anywhere." Mimes also swim, run, ride a horse, climb lc!dders, walk tightropes, and fall without moving from one spot.

Club member Hillary Doerr said Lincoln High' s mime repetoire ranges form a little girl losing the ice cream from her cone to a person completely shutting himself off in a box. Another popular skit had mimes selling smiley faces to people. Lincoln High's mime troupe is in its second year of revival. Their early performances this past year included presentations for the Retired Teachers Association and at the Alumni Dinner. Above: Justine Johnson and Hillary Doerr inclose themselves in a box.

If you are interested in owning your own store and being your own boss, Lincoln High' s Marketing Club is for you. They try to acquaint future small business owners with some of the operational aspects of owning and running a business. Members discuss different methods of retailing, communication with customers and other business functions. The group had several sales projects during the year. They raised money to buy toys for Cedars Home by selling ice scrappers and balloons. Through the projects, they learned about profits and losses, public relations, and promotion of a project. Another practical business experience the club had this year was a day-long field trip to Gateway Shopping Center. The club members visited several businesses and talked with owners about the procedures of selecting, ordering, and stocking their merchandise.

Everyone's memories and feelings of high school are different, for we've all experienced different events, but some common happenings will be long remembers by the class of 1980. The school building and grounds have changed a lot since we were sophomores. Do you remember the old Oval cement walls and bleachers that surrounded the track and football field? No one will forget the front of the building torn up to build the J Street mall. Students used to have to cross a street to get to the north parking lot. Inside, improvements have been going on since we were sophomores also. Men in little white overalls were a familiar sight in our hallways, gaily decorating our walls with yellow, orange, green, blue,

and red paint. The new additions of the media center, art room, and counselor offices made school work much easier for us. Not only the building has changed in these past three years. Remember sound announcements given by Mr. Pfeiff and the ever puzzling system of Day 1 and Day 2? Do you remember pep rallies your sophomore year? Fridays used to be dominated by students in black and red clothes with flowers from the cheerleaders. When we were juniors, do you remember when Rich Sheridan, Lincoln High' s starting basketball center, fell from a stairwell downtown and we had a district game the next day? Do you remember when the girl's track team won the Nebraska Invitational, boy's gymnastics went to state, and we didn't have a soccer team? Lincoln High has some different memories that only you will remember. Those personal thoughts, known only to you, are the most special.

After graduation, we will remember special times at Lincoln High.

Senior Links receive recognition Each year, Lincoln High School recognizes the accomplishments of its seniors at an all-school awards assembly. This year's Senior Recognition Day took place Tuesday, May 20. Sophomores, juniors and faculty members looked on as the Class of 1980 filed into Johnson Gym to be recognized for outstanding individual efforts in the areas of athletics, scholastics, and fine arts. Many seniors were recognized but through the years, several awards have taken on added significance either because of the tradition placed on the award or the overall area it encompasses. The winner of the school's oldest award, The Hany Sidney Dobbins Award, was Bruce Crowther. The

JJ @LID~ 'W@Illl· IID@rn·@ award, established in 1913, recognizes the most outstanding senior male athlete. Varsity level head coaches, under the supeIVision of •Athletic Director Jim Sommers, determined the winner of the award. Taken into consideration were school activities and academics in addition to athletic achievement. In athletics, Bruce excelled in gymnastics, wrestling and baseball. Academically, he ranked in the upper three per cent of his graduating class. He also served the senior class as president. The counterpart to the Hany Sidney Dobbins Award is the Girls Athletic Award. This year's winner was Anne Draper. Also a member of the upper three per cent, Anne competed on Link volleyball and gymnastic teams. Mr. and Mrs. Norman Prucha established the Ned Prucha Award in 1960 to honor the individual who ranks number one in the National Honor

Backstage workers have been called the "unsung heroes" of the Lincoln High School drama department. While the cast receives applause and recognition, crews tend to hang back in the shadows, or the wings of the stage. This past year, backstage workers began to have new light shed on their efforts and hard work During this year's All School Play, "The Diary of Anne Frank," Drama Director Joan Lazarus along with the school administration expressed their appreciation of the crews. A special display of pictures of all the crew members and crew heads was set up, and an appreciation get-together was held, giving crews the opportunity to explain their work and give backstage tours. Being on an All School Play crew involved a lot of work. Set building crews met every day when construction of a set began. Students stayed as late as 1 a.m. building and finishing sets. Other crews demanding less time worked up to five or eight hours a day as the All School Play production neared. Crews such as costumes, lights, makeup, properties, publicity, set construction, sound, and a newly-added set painting group, made up the backstage workers. Crew members developed close relationships working with each other. Costume cocrew head Louise Krantz said, "The best thing about being on a crew, I think, is getting to know people I've never met before." Perhaps the backstage worker's motto is, as Louise said," A play is not only what's on stage, but what's backstage, too." Caroline Tuttle prepares a prop.

Do you enjoy working with numbers? Do you like competition? Do you like mathematical games and tricks or do you just need help studying for the PSAT or ACT? The Lincoln High Math Club, with advisors Mrs. Patience Fisher and Mr. Charles Frieson were very active in all these and more during their first year at Lincoln High. Meetings were held every other Monday. Sometimes student speakers gave talks on ancient" magic" numbers or tricks to make math easier. Guest speakers from the University of Nebraska and other high schools entertained also. Sample college entrance

exams were worked to prepare students for taking them. But mostly, Math Club practiced techniques for the annual Math Field Day held at Creighton University on February 23. Two teams of five, with at least one sophomore on each, participated on such events as: "Mad Hatter," "Leapfrog", and "Chalk Talk" In the 'Mad Hatter" event, students worked problems flashed on a screen as fast as possible. "Chalk Talk" was a pre-rehearsed speech on a math topic. "Leapfrog" was a team of two people, each given a test to work on ·for an hour.

Oh, no. I have to get up early again so I can put up my locker spirit signs before school. Spirit week is tiring sometimes. I should have gone to bed earlier instead of making those cookies that we''re not supposed to bring anyway. But my big brother hates it when he never gets food. 1 know the guys always get excited when they get something to eat instead of crayon• made locker signs that the janitors tear down after school anyway. I should be like my other pepper friends who make door signs and lucky pennies and buy stuffed animals for their spirit guys that

they all have crushes on. But the guy whose name I drew I don't even know. He's a senior and has a girlfriend already. I always get stuck with the taken ones. Maybe next year there'll be a bigger pep club and spirit week will be more exciting. I was so embarrassed when I was the only fool wearing a toga on toga day. They all knew I was just a dumb sophomore. The best thing about spirit week, though, was when my . spirit guy found out early who I was, he thanked me for my support. I guess most people never realize that little things like that are appreciated.

Under the direction of Mrs. Cheryl Gadeken and co-leaders Kyle Baker and Toby Zinnecker·, leadership class students explored their goals and values in life. Toby explained, "We talk about how to listen and talk with people."

Students ~ho had these qualities and seemed to be potential leaders were interviewed by Mrs. Gadeken during the summer. This past year the class consisted of 11 juniors and 15 sophomores. Leadership is a full-credit course. Part of the curriculum included a personal journal kept by each sophomore on a daily basis. Mrs. Gadeken said the journals were enjoyable to read and helpful in showing where interests lay.

For some, beating the energy crisis meant riding a bike to school every day. Junior Lynda Fagerberg said it's "faster than walking" while sophomore Bennett Haller felt it was "cheaper than a carpool." Whatever the reasons were, most Lincoln High bikers have been biking to classes since junior high. ''Vou can see so much because you're not confined," said junior Anna Baker, "you can look around. It's not complicated or hard, you just steer and go." The main hassle, according to the bikers, was car drivers who didn't respect them.

"Cars hate bikers. They think that if we have bike trails, all bikers should be on them." explained Lynda. Other problems included flat tires, stolen locks, and how to carry books. Most students carried a backpack to school, however, when Lynda had too many books to fit in it, she did her homework at her locker after school. Bike-riding has many advantages. Besides being cheap and fast, junior Ian Lipsky said, "It's a good exercise, and it's good to know you' re not using gas, polluting, or making noise."

One of the quietest clubs at Lincoln High has to be the chess club. Although not much talking goes on at meetings, entertainment is high. If you enjoy chess, or are even mildly interested in learning or watching, this club is for you. Curious people are encouraged to observe. President Kyle Baker announced they met every Thursday at 3 o'clock "wherever they didn't kick us out." Meetings were held in various classrooms, the writing lab, and media center. Inter-school tournaments were played using a ladder system where students competed with others at their same level. The club's best players were Dave Stewart and Ron Buskirk, both juniors. Another form of competition had every member with his own board all challenging sponsor Mr. Lawrence at once. He traveled from board to board, moving once each time until all games were over. Two years ago the club competed with Lincoln Pius X High School. This past year they attempted to play every Lincoln high school. Many members were also active in the Lincoln City Chess Club, where Mr. Lawrence claims he is" champion." Said Kyle whoever is the top player there "really controls the city." The Lincoln High Chess Club offered a range of abilities, from beginners to serious players, involved in such programs as this.

In effort to better prepare students for the future, the Lincoln Board of Education passed new graduation requirements affecting the 1980 sophomore class. With the new requirements, it is hoped students will have a better understanding of government, and meet the district's education • goals better. All four high schools are going through the process of "shifting gears"; offering new classes to sophomores. Among the new classes offered are: health, modern history classes, communication skills, _literature, and human behavior. The main reason for offering these classes is to insure all graduates of Lincoln Public Schools are exposed to current and relevent issues.

New coach brings "new life" The 1979 Varsity Football team ended the season with a 3-5-1 record under the direction of new head coach Bob Starr. Starr, previously at North Platte, combined his new ideas with assistant coach Harold Simpson's knowledge of the Links' football team to apply the Black and Red with the I-formation. This formation gave the Links new offensive life. In the opening game with Columbus, both teams battled back and forth in a resulting 0-0 deadlock LHS' quarterback Bill Szalawiga was injured in the game and was out the rest of the season. The following week the Links took on North Platte. The Platters dominated the first half scoring 12 points. But the Links did not give up. With three secon~s left in the first half Bill Tesch connected with Keith Harrison on a 17-yard scoring pass. The Links took the lead in the second half when Anietie Udofia passed to James Bade for 38 yards. The final score was 14-12. The Links then traveled to Scottsbluff returning home with a 24-7 victory. In the early part of the first quarter the Links scored a touchdown and went on to dominate the remainder of the game. In the next three games the Links took losses to Lincoln Northeast, Grand Island, and Lincoln Southeast. During the LNE game LHS showed their momentum by coming from a deficit ·o f 0-14 to a 14-14 tie in the third quarter. However, mistakes caused a 14-24 loss. The Homecoming game was with Grand Island. Halftime remained scoreless and the Islanders went on to a 0-14 win. The game with Southeast resulted in what Coach Starr said was. the Links' best game. The Knights scored on its opening drive and the Links, with quarterback Dale Nichols, came right back with a scoring drive of their own. Shortly after halftime the Links took a 14-13 lead but the Southeast offense was too much and the final score ended, 20-28. The next game was with Beatrice at Seacrest Field. A rainstorm had drenched the field prior to the game making it difficult to play. Lincoln High' s Keith Harrison ran the only touchdown for seven yards. The Links next traveled to Fremont only to have an unpleasant experience. The Tigers' offense was tough and LHS mistakes contributed to a 7-16 loss. The final game of the season was with eventual state champion Lincoln East. The Links' only touchdown was a 63-yard interception runback by Dan Cary. The Spartans had a good offense and the game ended, 7-29. Coach Starr noted, "Overall, I was disappointed in the season, but there were times tha~ I was proud of the team." Coach Starr pointed out that there were many fine players on the team. He named Rob DeBus, Brian Rettig, Craig Lemka, Todd Fiedler, Craig Mulligan and Anietie Udofia as the team's top players.

Reserves realize potential ·as team The 1979 reserves, under the direction of coaches Dave Gillespie and Tom Christie, encountered three distinct phases before actually realizing their potential as a team. The first phase took place in the opening game against Westside where they felt unconfident as a team and took the loss, 6-14. Their next game with Southeast activated their physical ability to play, but not their mental confidence in them selves and resulted in a 0-6 loss. The reserves finally put everything together against Northeast and blasted them with a 21-0 victory. Coach Gillespie noted, "The highlight of the season consisted of the reserve' s ability to start realizing their potential as a team and the concept of what a team can

The Links then dominated East in their best game, according to Gillespie, winning 15-8. The reserves came back again to beat Fremont, 14-8. The next game was a disappointment in that the team led the whole game against Southeast up until the last two minutes losing 6-14. The Links took another loss against East, playing well the first half before losing 7-24. The final game of the season was against Grand Island, but was cancelled due to weather conditions. The Links had several outstanding competitors including Brent Keller and Terri Roth at- I-back, and Jeff Blackman at quarterback. Gillespie also praised Chuck Bodfield, Dave Ohmberger and Mark Coleman for their efforts. The season ended with a 3-4 mark.

"One of the fundamental lessons of life is team work This group learned this lesson well. We worked well and played well together." This comment from Coach Pappas illustrates the 1979 Sophomore football season well because their season went undefeated with a 6-0-1 mark The other coaches for the sophomores were Coach Ray Henning and Student Coach Randy Kliment. Coach Henning said, "The secret to our success, based on unity, was everyone did their job as a team from the first player to the last" There was no doubt that the sophomores had an outstanding season. The more they played the more team pride existed. In the opening game against Millard, the defense played an important role. They blocked a punt, and ran back an interception ending the game, 12-6. It wasn't until their next game against Ralston that the Links started talking about being undefeated. They won

their confidence and the game, 19-13. The Links first· city game was with Southeast. They played an exceptional game with a 60-yard punt return giving them a score of 12-8. In the Northeast game the defense held and the offense came through for a 7-0 win. The East High game was the last city game. The sophomores drove hard and became city champs, 14-6. A game with Westside resulted in a hard-hitting experience. LHS only scored a touchdown but added a field goal as well to win 10-0. The last game of the season was against the Beatrice reserves. The game resulted in a 0-0 tie. The sophomores had many fine players who performed like a team should-with unity. Monte Mares, Dave Borchers, Mfon Umoren, Pat Broun, Doug Novack, Dave Fiala and Phil Down all were cited for their outstanding play.

Golfers improve over previous season As the second season of girls golf came to an end, the team found it had improved over their first year. Although LHS didn't win any major meets, individual performances helped to enhance the quality of the team. " The girls improved their scores considerably from last year," Coach Sally Roper said, " Each girl had her good moments." she added. Roper felt the highlight of the year was a 243-271 dual meet win against Northeast. The Links also finished fifth out of seven teams in district competition beating Northeast and Omaha Northeast. But, along with the highlights there also were some problems. " It's hard to compete with girls that play all year round," Roper said, referring to other high school golf programs in which the girls practice daily. Roper cited seniors Sara Gies and Ruth Boham as the top players. Juniors Pam Mcneese and Cindy Cassel will return next year. Senior Stephani Cords was the fifth girl to earn a varsity letter.

Pat Morton displays the first of three parts of the whole idea of teamwork in volleyball.

Teamwork holds spikers together The girls varsity volleyball team began the season as the home team against Grand Island. The team consisted of nine seniors and three underclassmen. The opening game ended in a two-set LHS loss and provided an indication of the things to come as the Links suffered through a 1-15 season. The Links managed to win their third game of the season in a 2-1 battle against Westside. But from then on it was a struggle to the bitter end. Head Coach Joyce Johnson said that it was a disappointing season for both the team and herself. But she added that the team never gave up their struggle. "They could have chosen to quit, but they stayed in there and fought, especially at districts," stated Johnson. Although the season proved to be a disappointing one for the team, individuals made great efforts and played excellent in certain games. Suzy Shepard played a strong serving game at districts. Joni Langen had her best game at the Cornhusker Classic in both spiking and serving. Anne Draper also had excellent games. No new techniques were put into use this year. Coach Johnson stuck to the Silvia Paeglitis shows great skill by setting up a perfect bump for her teammates.

fundamentals and tried to strengthen them. Basic skills were used during the season, trying to improve the defense as well as individuals. Most of the players on the team felt that the attitude of their teammates was a positive and friendly one. They all felt disappointed about the season, but everyone gave it their best, and stayed friends through the season. They did other things than simply play volleyball together. They had a pr~game breakfast for the reserve and varsity volleyball players. They griddled pancakes in Mrs. Johnson's office and fried bacon and eggs in the hall. But breakfast came to an . end when fuses were blown . . Another thing they did was meditate before a game. This gave the team time to think about the game and what was ahead. The varsity volleyball ended their season on a positive note. They gave 200 per cent while playing their match against Southeast at districts. They lost their first set by a fraction, but came back to win their second set. In the third set the Links forced the Knights to play extra time in order for them to win. The chant of the final game still rings in everyone's ears: "Varsity to the Max."

Athletics-139

Backing up the varsity, the Lincoln High Reserve Volleyball Team posted a 6-8 season. The highlight of the season, according to Coach Cheryl Henry, was a 2-1 win over highly regarded Northeast. "Their strength was in their defensive playing ability, but their weaknesses were the lack of experience as well as their attack," she said. T earn member, Anna Baker, agreed with Coach Henry on what their strengths and weaknesses were, but added, "our, 'on the net' play was weak, but we did have good control over the ball." Another team member, Sandy Fogerty, stated, "we all wanted to win and everyone had a good attitude about each game, but we just didn't have enough experience." The team was led by two juniors, Mary Splichal and Anna Baker, and two sophomores, Christi Pfeifer and Tami Lutzi. The attitude of the team was positive and good. "Everyone stuck together," said Anna.

LHS harriers lack key ingredients "The kids seemed to lack the confidence and mental toughness that was needed to place in high meets," said Coach Harold Scott, reflecting on the 1979 Cross Country team, which ended the season with an unimpressive record, earning no dual or meet wins. The harriers proved to be tough in some meets though but could not pull out the big victory. The most impressive showing for the Links was a seventh-place finish at the Millard Invitational where 10 teams participated. " T awards the end of the season we began to put more effort into our running which helped us move up on opponents," Coach Scott commented. An inexperienced team also seemed to

be a problem for the harriers. For many years now the Links have been plagued with young teams. This yea_rs team was no exception as it consisted of only three returning letterwinners out of 13 members. " Since we were young," Coach Scott said, "we didn't really work as hard as we should have. At the beginning of the season we had to correct some of the problems that should already have been taken care of during the summer." The harriers finished the season on a sweet note capturing a sixth place showing in districts. Coach Scott cited Bobby Schoonover and Paul Johnson for their performances. " We were very young and hope to be a promising team next year," Coach Scott stated.

Disappointment 'marks tennis season A young inexperienced tennis team struggled through the 1979 season, wining only one dual match against Beatrice,

6-3. The team was young because only two of 1978' s six letter winners were returning lettermen. The team was inexperienced becaus~ they needed more expertise in tournament play, Coach Pat Maloy said. However, the team did place fourth in the . Trans-Nebraska Tournament at Woods Park, making the year a little brighter. Another team problem responsible for the final season results was the lack of the desire to win Maloy said. Although the team was young, it didn't hurt their team .doubles. Coach Maloy said, " The team doubles of Jon Fuenning and Larry Pospisil were the strong point for the year." The doubles helped the team finish 15th at the State Tournament in Omaha. The Reserves saw a more successful year than the Varsity. They started out a good season by beating East and Southeast and posed as an undefeated team for two matches. By the end of the season however, the Reserves had forfeited matches during the second East game and the Lincoln Public Schools Reserve Championship because of a lack of players.

Gymnasts meet hard earned goals

I

" The goal of the year," stated Coach Gary Jeurink, " was going to state." And the Links gymnasts d_ i d just that, placing eighth overall. Coach Jeurink felt that their strengths this year were on the vault and the floor exercise. The pommel horse was the team weakness. " There ar~ a lot of people that could do the pommel horse and do it well if they_ would just go out," stated Jeurink._ The highpoint of the season was placing 3rd at the Grand Island Invitational, October 20. They placed close behind two of the best teams in the state. Plus they beat higher ranked North Platte. Jeurink felt the top competitors were Dave Miller, Gayle Adams, Jeff Horacek and Bruce Crowther. Dave, who worked floor exercise, placed in every meet. Gayle and Jeff both did excellent on vaulting, and Bruce was the team's " all around" competitor. Coach Jeurink felt the team's attitude was a positive and hopeful ·one throughout the year. " Everyone could have worked harder," said Jeurink, " but then I'm never satisfied." Then he added, " they are a much better working team and are stronger than years past." He felt that he had a team of entertainers when it came to the van trips. He commented that they were a good bunch of guys. Accomplishing goals is one thing everyone hopes for and this year's gymnastics team didn't fall one step short of it. They set out to do something, encountered obstacles, but -finally accomplished their goal.

Links record best season since '59 For three weeks during the boys varsity basketball season, the LHS student body was proud to be able to display the symbol "1" in describing their boys basketball team. While the team was knocking off opponent after opponent, the feeling of being the best was apparent throughout Lincoln High School. The Number One ranking was a result of the team's December and early January play, as the Links roared to nine straight wins including victories over eventual state champion Omaha Westside and runner-up Lincoln East "It was a really good feeling to be able to say 'We're Number One,'" said three-year letterman Bill Szalawiga. "The school support and spirit seemed to double and everyone was really excited about being the best" After beating Lincoln Northeast for their ninth straight win on January 18, "the game of the year" loomed the following week as LHS prepared to take on then secondranked Lincoln East at Pershing Auditorium. More than 5,000 basketball fans filled the auditorium to watch the Links and Spartans do battle. LHS had already defeated East, 62-54, in the Kearney Holiday Tournament but this time proved different. With the score tied early in the fourth quarter, the Spartans caught fire and scored a 72-59 win. The following night the Links· regrouped to face defending state champion and then Number Four ranked Omaha Northwest at Johnson Gym. The Links overcame a 47-point scoring spree by Northwest sensation Ron Kellog to claim a 72-68 overtime win. Three straight losses then followed as Omaha South, Papillion and Lincoln Southeast all claimed victories over LHS, before the Links closed the season with wins over Hastings, Omaha Tech and Grand Island. Even though the Links lost to Beatrice, 81-72, in

district play, the season was not over as LHS qualified for the state tournament via the wild card. But the season did end the next week when Southeast handed the Links a disappointing 58-45 loss· in the first round of the state tournament The team's final record of 14-6 was the best record an LHS basketball team has posted since the undefeated and state championship team of 1959. The 198Q team shot a very impressive 48 per cent from the field, another statistic that rated them as one of the top shooting teams in Linq>ln High basketball history. "We had a good balance of scoring between our starters," said 21-year Head Coach Aldie Johnson. "Each of the starters has a high point game, something that is not accomplished very often." "When our offense moved we couldn't be beat," Szalawiga. "But towards the end of the season our defense started to become lazy and whenever the offense did break down the game turned into a one-on-one competition with every man playing for himself." Coach Johnson was pleased the team was able to qualify for the state tournament "Even though it was my eighth visit to the state tournament, I was just as thrilled this time as I was the first time I went to state as a coach," he said. "It's a good feeling to go and I was really happy for the kids since none of them had played in a state tournament before." Several Links gained honors at the conclusion of the year. Senior center Derrick Hull was named to the first team All-City squad. Szalawiga and junior John Martzke were both selected as members of the All-City Second Team. "One of the things I enjoy most about coaching," said Coach Johnson, "is to take young men from different backgrounds and mold them together into a team concept. My greatest pleasure in coaching is to see the kids LINK together to form a chain and not to ever break those bonds."

For the 1979-80 Lincoln High Reserve Basketball T earn to compile a 12-4 record, the second best record recorded by a Links' reserve team in the last 20 years, it took a lot of hard work and dedication. "All 15 members of the team had an excellent attitude in both,games and prac- . tice," first year Reserve Coach Bill Zuspan said. "They placed the importance of the word "WE" above the word · "I", which helped them become a more unified ball club. Even though we lacked the height, we made up for it with our excellent attitude toward each other." While the Links were building on to their impressive 12-4 record, they were also achieving goals set at the beginning of the season. One such goal, and probably the most important, was to prepare themselves for future roles in a varsity basketball position. Some other goals that they achieved were to finish the season with a record above 500 per cent and also to learn good sportsmanship. "I wanted to make basketball fun to the kids and not something you dread to do and I feel the team had a great time this year," said Coach Zuspan. Coach Zuspan felt that the Links' sevengame winning streak in the middle of the season was the high point of the year.

Sophomores The 1979-80 Sophomore Basketball squad finished the year with a 3-9 record. "The sophomore program is not conceived around their record," said Coach Jake Kirkland. Instead, the sixth-year sophomore coach said, "The primary purpose of the program is to prepare players for future basketball competition." The sophomores began the year with two victories, beating the Adams reserves 73-50, and Beatrice 49-44. The Links then lost seven straight games before demolishing Northeast 76-46, a game that Coach Kirkland felt was the high point of the year. Even though the sophomores dropped the last two games of the season to city rivals East and Southeast, Coach Kirkland felt the team played extremely well. "The team played very good against East and Southeast, but we just didn't have enough to win," he said. "We seemed to lack the floor leadership and mental concentration that we needed to win," stated Coack Kirkland. He added, "We didn't play consistently either. It was as if in some games we did everything right while in others we did everything wrong." "The team had a certain desire to try, earning everything they received," Kirkland said. He cited Dave Fiala, Dave Edwards and Jeff Schnieder for being very promising players. Coach Kirkland said, " We may not have won many games but we had fun trying to achieve our goals and we did make considerable improvement, which is what sophomore basketball is all about."

Gymnasts gain valuable experience Experience was probably the Links' most important thing the 1980 girls gymnastics team learned. This young team, consisting of 10 sophomores, five juniors and only one senior, learned a lot through the course of the season. They began to better understand .what competitive gymnastics was like and to be a really good team. Gary Jeurink, head coach, pointed out senior Anne Draper, juniors Faith Miller and Lisa Scott, and sophomores Sara Thomassen and Leslie Hackenberg, as the team's outstanding members. Gary felt team strengths this year were on the vault and the uneven bars. "We've always been a good vaulting team," Coach Jeurink said, "even when we've started with rookies. "Last year our weakness was on the uneven bars," added Jeurink, " strangely enough that was something we were quite strong on this year." The balance beam seemed to be a slight weakness for Lincoln High in terms of consistency. "There was only one meet that we did real well in, and that was our meet against Lincoln Southeast," stated CoachJeurink. "Everyone really got along well, and I think we'll be able to do even better next year," said Faith. "We hope to be a much stronger team in terms of experience and depth and I really believe that we'll be able · to do just that. We hope to be a team to watch out for next year," added Faith.

Wrestlers Look Ahead This year's Varsity Wrestling Team started off the season on a bad foot, but came back in their fourth dual with a 33-21 win against higher ranked East High. "The meet with East High," stated Varsity Wrestling Coach Harold Simpson, "was the highlight of the season." "We did just a little bit better that night and we got by them," he added. Although the team seemed to be improving, the next four duals tried their experience and ability. Kearney, Northe~st, Fremont and Hastings all managed major wins against the LHS wrestlers. They ended their dual meet season with a win against Omaha South. Taking eighth at Districts and qualifying two for State was the conclusion of the season for the Lincoln High Varsity Wrestling Team. Greg Phillips qualified for State in the 98-pound category and Bruce Crowther at 138 pounds. Coach Simpson commended Bill Mille~, 132 pounds, and Jeff Gaines, heavyweight division, for their efforts and competitiveness through the year. Simpson also pointed out that Jeff was only beaten four times during the course of the year. This year's team seemed to be proportioned out fairly well, although the middle and heavyweights seemed to be Lincoln High' s strength. The lower weight division was quite young and inexperienced and had to learn competitive wrestling, according to Simpson. By simply looking at the scores one wouldn't know it, but the team improved as the year went on. They were a very young team and lacked the varsity expe-

rience needed to be top contenders. "l wish we could have won more meets," said varsity wrestler Bruce Crowther, "but l really enjoyed the other wrestlers. I had only hoped the team could have done better as a whole." Bruce felt that everybody was willing to work very hard and that each and every one showed a lot of determination. He said everybody was easy going and really got along well. "The younger kids should be quite good in the near future," stated Simpson, "and there will be six returning letter winners to help out next year's team."

Reserves: A Building Year A good phrase for Lincoln High' s Reserve Wrestling Squad would be hot and cold as the team went back and forth between winning and losing, ending the season with a first-place finish in the LHS Tourney. Coach Thomas Christie sighted the highlight of tfie season as the team's win in the Lincoln Public Schools City Championship. Coach Christie felt that the juniors added much needed experience to the team. He thought juniors Randy Wymore and Randy Perez were a helpful asset to the team and stated that Mike Jeys was a promising sophomore.

The reserves added to their season a new meet, by participating in their first out of town tournament, the Pender Tourney. "The guys really thought that they would have no problems winning the tournament," stated Christie. "They felt that the Class B, C, and D teams wouldn't be very good, but they thought wrong and found out that small towns know how to wrestle and wrestle well." Reserve wrestler, Randy Perez, enjoyed going to more meets. He thought that the upper weights seemed to have a little more experience and were a little stronger. " The best part of the year was when we took first at the city tournament," said Perez. "It really made the season worthwhile." " The more experience the team got the more they found their techniques," said Christie. "They became more competitive . an better wrestlers."

Girls capture spirit, state title for LHS The 1980 girls basketball team accomplished much in their quest to win the girls high school state basketball championship. It was a season to be remembered, bringing confidence back in LHS' sports and lifting school spirit to its maximum. The team was headed by Coach Bill Myers. The coaching and the talent of each and every member of the team made it all happen. Overall, the Links compiled an outstanding record of 20-3. Coach Myers implied that the team acquired three things that helped enable the success. Myers explained, "Our teamwork progressed because of the depth we had. Our speed enabled us to drive quickly with good shooting ability." Lincoln High had the best shooting record in Class A, hitting 46 per cent of its field goals. The Links never really had a bad game. They started the season out well getting mentally ready for each game. When they did lose a game they were always able to pick it up again. Lisa Phipps was one of the most outstanding ball players in the state. She was the Links' leading scorer and rebounder with 15 points and 10 rebounds per game. She also was the leading player with 88 steals all season. Lori Trejo became the team's second leading rebounder and scorer having six rebounds and 11 points per game. Myers credited Robin Danner as the team's offensive motivater. She was the second leader in steals and assists and could really move with the ball. Sabrina Weaver, a sophomore, was the player that made things happen. She led in assists and headed an effective full court press. Mary Splichal injured her knee in the second game of the season. She was a starting guard as a sophomore and will look forward to next year. Rhonda Becker played well in the state games as she gained confidence. She also was the team's third leading rebounder. There were three other seniors that played extremely well: Pam McWilliams, Carla Frauen, and Carol Dockter. All displayed much leadership, according to Myers. Carla Galois, Anna Baker, and Tracy Anderson worked very hard and pushed the team in practice to motivate the team to success. Myers concluded, "There was a lot of support from the student body and faculty that helped arouse Lincoln High spirit. There will be eight returning letterwinners and we look forward in trying to defend the state championship title next year."

Reserves Capture Total Team Effort "This team consisted of unique individuals; each contributing in their own way to make this a well-balanced team," stated Reserve Girls Basketball Coach Kraig Anderson about his team's 11-4 record. The second-year coach also described the 1980 girls reserve basketball team as one of a total team effort. In the.first part of the season the Links progressed productively on offense, hardly giving their opponents a thance to put points on the board. · Competition didn't arrive until the sixth game of the season when North Platte came out on top, 25-22. Frustration hit the Links but not long as they came back to win their next five games against top competitive teams. The last games that were played were rough and rugged. This was proved by losing by very close margins and winning one out of four. The reserves had a well-rounded team. Coach Anderson added, "There wasn't one set player who made it all happen, but each and every member of the team."

Tankers 5th at State; Hope for future The 1980 Boys Swimming Team could be termed as a team that accomplished much through first acquiring individual success. This is illustrated by the tankers supreme effort in obtaining 5th in the state meet. Coach Gene Cotter explains, " We had a very good season. We won the dual meets and at the end of the season felt good as a team as individual success progressed. We also felt we should compete on a higher level." LHS had a well developed diving team consisting of Jim Gilmore, John Cotter, and Jeff Blackman. The divers scored very high at the state meet. There were many fine consistent swimmers. Aaron Drake finished second in the 200 meter individual medley along with other good results at state. Kenny Hammer also did a fine job • finishing 7th in the backstroke at state. The swimming team will remain strong next year since the 1980 tankers were composed mostly of juniors.

Concentration leads to team success In March, head Boys Varsity Baseball Coach Bill Zuspan said the key to success for the 1980 baseball squad would be teamwork and concentration. "There are a lot of different personalities on the team and they must act as a team and not as individuals," Zuspan said. "The players must concentrate on preparing to win. They all have determination to win, but they must prepare to win," added Zuspan. The Links had six returning letterwinners to face what Zuspan said would be a "tough" 16-game schedule. These lettermen included: Eric Bishop, third base; Dale Nichols, catcher; Gerald Bower, third base; Craig Mulligan, outfield; Reggie Peak, pitcher and short stop; and Greg Kohout, outfield. According to Zuspan, team speed, a solid infield, and a good defense would have to compensate for what he feels will be a general lack of playing experience. "Even with six returning lettermen, we lack playing experience," Zuspan said. "You must play a lot to be good at baseball and playing summer ball helps," he stated referring to the American Legion Summer Program.

Zuspan stated that 75 per cent of baseball is pitching and this year Lincoln High had an excellent pitching staff. "You need the depth and good pitchers to help make a good team and we had just that," said Zuspan. A question one may wonder about is with only six returning letterwinners, could the new comers fill in where last years' seniors left oft? To Coach Zuspan, though, this was the least of his worries. He felt that this years' new varsity players filled in the • empty positions just as well if not better

than last years' players. Although the team was strong, Zuspan thought the returning Ietterwinners were the nucleus of the team. He said the lettermen had a little advantage on-the others since they had played more varsity ball. Zuspan said this years' team was potentially very successful, but realistically they had to prepare. ''You have to be a scrappy team and not a dying duck You have to go out there to give it your all," Zuspan said.

Enthusiastic Reserves gain experience Young and enthusiastic would describe this years reserve baseball team. With a tough 13-game schedule, the team had to prepare themselves for a rough season. Scott Little, Dan Bousek and Mickie McGuire led the team. Scott, at short stop, Dan playing second base and Mickie, a pitcher, helped the team through their hard season. " They have a lot of endurance and they loved to steal bases," stated Reserve Coach Tom Pappas. "We weren't hitting the ball as well as we would have liked to, but that comes with a lot more practice," added Pappas. Papillion and Northeast were two teams the squad had to watch out for this year. Coach Pappas said that Northeast always has a good team and this year was no exception. The team progressed through the year, grew stronger and gained valuable experience that will help them to be better players in the near future.

The sophomore team opened their season this year with a game again.st Lincoln East Ted Sheely, in his second year as sophomore coach, faced a 9-game-schedule, playing all the Lincoln schools twice and once again in the city tournament. Jim Smith and Barry Johnson led this years' sophomore baseball team. They seemed to have the .enthusiasm and strength needed to help out the squad. "Without the sophomore baseball program there probably wouldn't be a lot of kids able to participate in baseball," Varsity Coach Zuspan stated. "Sophomore baseball is a good experience for the kids. It helps them to see if they really have an interest in baseball," added Zuspan.

New track benefits LHS cindermen As Coach Harold Scott entered his twenty-seventh year at LHS as head boys' track coach he did so in unfamiliar surroundings. Gone were the concrete walls of the Oval and the old weather beaten six-lane cinder track No longer would Coach Harold Scott have to worry about being able to run on a track that flooded every time it rained more than a trace. Instead, Coach Scott's runners were found practicing on a new eight-lane allweather resolite track " We will be able to use the track more this year than the last few years which should help a little," said Coach Scott. The team also experienced something different in its first meet of the season. The meet was the first indoor meet that the Links had ever participated in. Coach Scott felt that 1980 squad would have good individual performers but that depth was the weaknes of the team. " for a team to be good and competitive it must not only have individual strengths but also depth," said Coach Scott. Out of the forty cindermen that participated, only twelve were returning Ietterwinners. Of these twelve, Coach Scott cited Jim Bade, sprints; Jon Fuenning, hurdles; Gail Adams, long and high jump; Steve Loos, middle distances; and Rob DeBus, shot, for being promising members. "Since there isn't a big number of kids out they don't really have to push themselves to make the team. This means they're not going to be equal to other teams that have larger turn outs," said Coach Scott.

Link girls prove to be competitive For the second straight year, Girls Track Coach Jean Henrichs started the season with a very optimistic outlook about his teams' talent. "We lost a few people at first semester graduation but we had many girls that were capable of filling into those positions and doing equal if not better, than the girls we lost," said Coach Henrichs. The girls' team was blessed with the

construction of the new eight-lane all· weather resolite track this year. This might • have helped some of the 43 members of the team to decide to take the big change and hard work that track brings. The team was led by returning letter· winners Linda Dickey, Jackie McEwen, Deb Schmalken, Lisa Edwards, Darlene Berks, Jerry Kuntz and Lisa Venhaus. Coach Henrichs also felt that juniors Sheri

Davidson, Judie Davidson, and Rhonda Roseburg were great assests to the team. His strong sophomores consisted of Michelle Maxey, Charlette Harrington, Rhonda Claypool, Patty McEwen, Dorethy Brown, Robin Scaggs, Carleen Draper and Joy Bradley. "We had a good sophomore class which gave us what we needed to be competitive," he said.

The 1980 Girls Tennis Team was molded around three returning letterwomen: Marcis Richards, Eileen Nettleton, and Lisa Scott. These performers presented the leadership needed to have a very fine team. Coach Cheryl Henry said, "Early season conditioning and experience led the team to success." The Links did have the opportunity to start outside practices earlier then in the past years allowing more time to condition. She also felt that the members of the team were well experienced due to outside school tennis activities. Because of experience Coach Henry hopes for a successful team next year.

The 1980 Boys GolfTearn achieved much success through individual effort. Dave Wallasky and Tom Stippich, two returning lettermen, led the team to realize the potentials of other team members. In the past years, boys golf met as a sport in the fall. This year it has been changed to exist as one of the spring sports. The weather permitted yearly practices thus giving the team time to practice before major meets. Last year Coach Bill Myers took the team to state. This was the same goal he had in mind this year.Left: A very consistent player, Dave Wallasky, strokes for par.

Girls 'Hit 'em hard'

Senior Carol Dockter realizes a " dream come true" as she cuts down the nets at the state championship game.

Mr. Nelson: "Do you have a minute?" Many students only see Mr. Sanford Nelson, Lincoln High School principal, at assemblies or in the lunch room. This might cause many to wonder "just what does he do?" To answer the question, let's take a look at "A day in the life of a principal." When you enter Mr. Nelson's office you see a desk cluttered just enough to think that he knows where everything is and a shelf filled with books and articles. Mr. Nelson' s secretary, Mrs. LaVern Rhoades, has some difficulty having to come down from the main office but with the new remodeling that will change. She brings in his messages and his mail. When Mr. Nelson gets back from his 7 a.m. meeting at 8: 15 he checks his calendar and plans his day. He makes the necessary phone calls then goes through the mail. He sends out some letters but throws the advertisements away. Some students come in at 8:30 a.m. to speak with Mr. Nelson about a proposition

their club has for a fund raiser. He gets a phone call in the middle, which is not uncommon. He makes arrangements with them to check out the different aspects of the problem and to meet again. A teacher then enters who wants to change the scheduled meeting time for a conference with a student's parents. Mr. Nelson calls to arrange it. Mr. Nelson then makes several calls to finish up the previous day's business. Some students come in at 10 a.m. to explain about a class project of taking an opinion poll. He offers alternatives to the students and agrees to speak to their class at a later time. With the remodeling and renovation going on in the school, Mr. Nelson has to speak with the director in charge of the project every day and this day they had to deal with the selection of paint for some rooms. One thing that a person wouldn't think a principal would have to do would be deal-

ing with business people trying to get an LHS account. But, Mr. Nelson had to speak with the Coca-Cola representative and also those from department stores and towel companies. About noon Mr. Nelson had to write some letters to speakers who will be at the LHS Community Council meeting to inform them of the proceedings. He then wrote a college scholarship recommendation letter for a student. At the same time another student came in to clear up a problem with his counselor. And then comes lunch at 12:30 p.m. All that work was before that time. After lunch he had many other meetings until everything was finished. Many times Mr. Nelson has meetings during the week nights. There are always people looking for him and people who need help with something and he always does his best to do what he can. Mr. Nelson's job is far from just speaking at assemblies and serving lunch duty.

As principal, Mr. Nelson often has to help out with the supervision of the lunch room.

As principal, Mr. Sanford Nelson usually gets to preside over school meetings and assemblies.

Mr. Sam Nelson's office is a very busy place whether school is in session or not

7J @ffi ~ lli@IT ~ TI@rn @l lli@TI lJD nrn ~ lli ffirn @l Many students get involved in a variety of after school activities but none would be possible without teacher sponsors. A club has to have a member of the faculty present for it to be legal. The club sponsors put in a lot of extra time but it also is fun for them. Ms. Kathy Brauer is the sponsor of the Lincoln High International Club. In her second year of sponsoring the club, she finds it going along quite well. She is trying to get more foreign students involved. She feels the primary pur· pose for the club is educational and to bring kids of different cultures together. As a coach, Mrs. Cheryl Henry was a good choice to sponsor the Girls L·club. Two years ago she was asked to sponsor but doesn't find it that hard. She said she has had a very good set of officers that did most of the work organizing candy sales, car washes, dances and many other things. The only other thing Mrs. Henry would change is finding more time for the meetings. Two years ago Mrs. Sally Roper, math teacher, took over the pep club. It was much different from when she was in school because it is made up of a different group. But, she likes it very much and finds the hardest job is getting organized. She became involved because she likes sports and the kids.

While students are out for the summer, getting a job, going on vacation, or just bumming around, teachers a~e out doing their thing which is probably different from teaching school. Mr. Buford Grosscup, social studies teacher is a crop hail adjuster in the summer. He has worked for State Farm Insurance for the past 12 years after quitting as the director for the boys city baseball program. He goes out and assesses the hail damage done to crops. He enjoys his job because of the outdoors work. Another person who enjoys the summer outdoors is Ms. Joan Lazarus, drama instructor. She has spent the last two summers at Camp Newfound in Maine. It's a girls camp and she taught drama where they put on an all-camp production where the emphasis was on participation not skill. Ms. Lazarus loved doing it so near the beautiful Maine scenery. ·Mr. Jean Henrichs was not near the beautiful countryside but he was busy working in his business of selling, installing and servicing swim· ming pools. He and four other teachers plus their children sell 10-12 pools a summer. They have done it for the last six summers and have found the people who buy pools are not just rich but are very nice family types. He says it's not that hard as only common sense is required.

Contrary to popular belief, teachers do not spend all of their time correcting papers and writing tests. Many teachers do very interesting things with their spare time. Miss Lydia Lekai, business department chairperson, has spent a lot of time traveling. Her first trip was when she went to Colorado with her parents. Since then she has visited 65 countries and in one summer she went to 22 countries on a trip around the world. When she is in another country, she makes it a point to see everything she possibly can. She usually visits a school and likes to mingle with the native children. Her favorite places are Switzerland, the South Pacific Islands, and New Zealand. Mr. Melvin Simpson , science teacher, also has been around but his hobby is not traveling. He likes airplanes. When Mr. Simpson was a senior in

high school the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor so he became interested in flight training. In 1944 he graduated from the navigation school and was a navigator on a B-29 until the end of the war. The plane's name was the Snugglebunny #32 and he has a model of it in his school room. . A more nature related hobby is one that Mr. Pat Maloy, English t~acher, shares with many people. He backpacks with two or three other people and they go to Yellowstone or Glacier Park and follow the trails on two to 10-day trips. He first started hiking when he was growing up in North Dakota but didn't really start serious backpacking until about 10 years ago. He uses such equipment as some good strong shoes, a sleeping bag and the pack itself. Mr. Maloy says that he likes to get outside and that one should always get out of the car if you want to see anything worthwhile.

grads rettirn "I can't wait to get out of this school." This phrase has often been heard coming from high school students anxious to graduate from LHS. But, some students later come back to teach at their alma mater. One is Ms. Becky Roux, science teacher. Ms. Roux says there are some differences between when she was a senior in 1962 and today. She said the school is much more structured and there is more freedom for the students to make decisions. "No one ever thought of skipping then and very few students had jobs during the year," she said. According to Ms. Roux, there used to be a student lounge and snack bar in an area of what is now the Media Center. She remembers students would even come to school early to dance to the juke ~box and sit in the booths and have a lot of fun. On the floor of the lounge there was a sacred" L" that no one was allowed to step on. "It was a big thing_ to see if a student from another school would break the rule," she said. Ms. Roux was very active while in high school as were many of the other LHS grad-teachers.

attends. To some this might present a problem but to Mr. Marv Rader and daughter Sue, a senior, there are many advantages. Aside from the obvious idea that they can share

their transportation, it also is much easier to coordinate their activities. Perhaps having a father that is a teacher made her decide that was what she wanted to be but she said she wouldn't want her dad as a teacher. She doesn't feel that it would work and they both iike the security that they have now. One girl that does have a class with her father is Bobbie Fallstead. Her dad is Mr. Ray Fallstead and she took a gymnastics class under him this year. She said that the course was more difficult than a class with a regular teacher because she couldn't get away with as much. Her dad also knows what Bobbie can and can't do. Swim coach Mr. Gene Cotter had his son John, a LHS junior, start swimming when he was very small but he now prefers to dive. Some day he might want to even coach diving. There are several other parent-offspring pairs in this school but it doesn't seem to bother anyone. In school, they're just like any other student except for the fact that .they see their parents a bit more often. Staff-187

From the time that a person is very small they are continually asked what they want to be when they grow up. Their answers vary when they are small from firemen to nurses to mommies and daddies. But then the child grows up, enters high school and begins to think seriously about a career. For many, college is the next step but then such decisions as what school to attend and what to major in have to be decided. People have to think about getting a good job that they like and making a living for themselves. But not everyone stays in the same job that they start out in. Many people decide that they want to do something else and make a whole new start. When Mr. Jerry Neff, counselor, was younger he wanted to be in fish and wildlife or oceanography and he even became a ranger in the Grand Tetons. He changed his mind when

he was in the army working in the mental hygiene clinic. Having aquired a teaching certificate in biology, Mr. Neff decided to become a counselor and has held that position in the five years that he has been at LHS. Journalism teacher Lee Johnson wanted to be a dentist when he was little in addition to wanting to be the president of the United States. After taking a journalism course in high school though, he decided he would rather teach journalism. Mrs. LeEtta Sprackling, science teacher, said that if she had been a boy she would of wanted to be a doctor or an agent in the FBI but since she wasn't she decided to go into biological research. When in school, Mrs. Sprackling decided to take some education classes so that in case she couldn't be a researcher she could fall back on teaching. After that, she changed her mind and chose to teach all the time.

Mrs. LeEtta Sprackling ended up teaching biology and chemestry.

"It has really been fun having you in hunting and advanced safari class. Have a fun summer." "Sorry I didn't get to knowyou better. Hope we can be better friends next year." "Good luck in the future." Do some of these lines look familiar? Well you have probably written something similar to these when signing your classmate's yearbook. It is an automatic reaction to sign or have people sign your yearbook. Of course, only after you have had a chance to look up the pages which your picture appears on. Some people seem to go to ·an extreme when signing yearbooks. They think they must have everyone they ~an possi· bly get sign t~eir annual. Then they can compare with their peers and find out who is the most popular by how many signatures · they have, even if half of the signatures are people they have barely said two words to all year. "Excuse me, would you like to sign my yearbook. Even though the only time I ever talked to you was when you stepped on my foot." It can be very embarrassing if someone asks you to sign their yearbook and you can't remember their name. To make matters worse, you might even be the first one to sign the book.

Have you ever found a map under. your windshield wiper giving you directions to a party? This seemed to be one of the techniques used by students to publicize their social gatherings. Parties were a good way for students to socialize outside of school. Although there were alcoholic beverages available, this was not the only factor which would draw students to attend parties. It gave students a chance to associate with people they would not ordinarily talk with in school. Then the only problem was trying to find the house that was five miles west of "O" street, one block past the second flashing light, left of the cemetery and one quarter mile south of the grain elevators.

§ DI1 lJuil lJuil@ IT IF DI1 ill Sitting cooped up in a classroom on that first sunny day after a long hard winter, students anxiously await the freedom summer provides. Summer offers a variety of activities for just about any type of person. For the money hungry ambitious students, a full-time job occupies much of their time. The athletic students find enjoyment from the many sports and organized leagues during the summer. Then, of course, there are students who wish to further their education by enrolling in summer classes.

For the bathing beauty, summertime is the perfect chance to get that great tan everyone wants. Some prefer to take a dip in the pool, while getting tanned at the same time. Others may decide to lay out in the privacy of their own back yard. Traveling is very popular during the summer. However, those traditional family vacations may be cut short because of the rising gas prices. With the many activities going on during the summer, some people choose to leisurely spend their time laying around the house watching 1V or sleeping.

lli~ Like the saying goes: March comes in like a lion and goes out like a lamb. And March at Lincoln High School was no different. March roared into Lincoln High School in the form of the 1980 Girls State Basketball Tournament and the storm did not abate until the following week with the conclusion of the boys state basketball playoffs. March 6 and 7 found the LHS hallways empty as school was dismissed early both days to allow the student body and faculty to cheer on the girls in state play at Pershing Auditorium. Each morning long lines would form outside the main office areas as students waited patiently to buy a tourney ticket, and ensure their dismissal from classes. The girls' team was so successful that they . earned themselves a ticket into the state finals and an eventual state c~ampionship trophy. The boys' team wasn't as fortunate in their tournament play, losing to Southeast in an early morning game. But nevertheless, the team kept basketball excitement at LHS in high gear for another week, following the girls triumph. Lincoln High School was the only Lincoln school to qualify a team for both the girls' and boys' tournaments.

Students waited patiently to buy their tournament tickets.

A Job Well Done It is the year 1977 and students are sitting in classrooms on a Monday morning after the big game Friday night, which, by the way, was won by Lincoln High. As normal procedure goes, Mr. Pfeiff, then vice-principal, is heard on sound announcements reporting the daily bulletin. He expresses extreme pleasure in announcing that Lincoln High has completed another "Job Well Done." As he speaks of events coming up in the future, he uses the phrase "Let's Go Links," which signifies that ifwe put forth our best effort, we can get the job done. These memories have a very special meaning as an essential asset to Lincoln High. Perhaps to those who knew Mr. Pfeiff and the phrase " A Job Well Done," this takes on an even deeper meaning. Our school displays pride with every event which we participate in. The general feeling is that we will try our hardest in whatever we do in hopes that it will turn out for the best. When the LINKS staff chose our theme, we tried to think about what "A Job Well Done" meant to us and to the school. It seemed unanimous that Mr. Pfeiff was the root of the actual meaning. He introduced the phrase upon entering Lincoln High and it has carried on through the years. It is almost certain that the phrase will go on to have the same special meaning it has had in the past. The trophy cases display the outstanding accomplishments in various sport events.

Drama participants have left their mark signifying " A Job Well Done."

LHS spirit encourages achievement.

Job Well Done-220

The voice of Mr. Pfeiff on the sound announcements each morning will be missed.

The weather-beaten LINKS statue was restored good as new. Putting forth an effort, even when you are defeated, is one aspect of " a job well done." •

Distinguished Alumni Return This year was the beginning of an annual tradition which seemed to have an inspiring effect on many students. In May of i 979 letters were sent out to 12 distinguished alumni, who were recognized for their outstanding acheivements in their careers. The letter requested them to attend a Distinguished Alumni Day which was held on October 5, 1979. Out of the 12 notified, nine were able to attend the day-long celebration and the football game that night. The three alumni not able to come were: Dick Cavett, who had conflicts in his taping schedule; Emmanuel Wishnow, who was on a trip to Europe and Dr. Mary Jo Henn, who was ill. Other than this there were no complications setting up a convenient date to have the awards day. The nine who attended were: Paul Amen, a graduate of 1934, who is the director of the Nebraska Department of Banking and Finance; Ted Gunderson, a 1946 graduate, who retired in March 1979 as Senior Special Agent in Charge, FBI, Los Angeles Field Division; State Senator Shirley Marsh from the class of 1943; Ralph Beechner, 1926, who is a retired educator from the Lincoln Public Schools; Dr. Robert G. Voltz, class of 1960, now a professor of Surgery at the University of Arizona; President of the Lincoln City Council, John Robinson from the class of 1961; Herman Rohrig, 1936, who is the supervisor of the Big Ten Athletic Officials; Edwin Faulkner, 1937, Chairman of the Board of Woodmen Accident and Life Company; and Barbara Lautzenheiser, class of '56, presently vice-president of Bankers Life of Nebraska. The idea of honoring distinguished alumni was formulated by Vice Principal Dr. Charles Jones, in September of 1978. He said he had heard about a masters program at the University of Nebraska and informed Principal Sam Nelson of his idea. Mr. Nelson thought they should go ahead with the plan and see how it worked. As already shown, the idea turned out to be an excellent one. Plans for next year's reunion are already being made. There will also be a special place in the building set aside for photographs of these memorable events.

Herman Rohrig and Mr. Don Dean discuss how times used to be.

Edwin Faulkner pauses to visit with superintendent of Lincoln Public Schools, John Prasch.

The distinguished class of '49 were escorted to the North Platte game in their own private bus.
