Students explore their dreams for meaning

By Laura Ryan

Whether at night or in class, when students closed their eyes and fell into unconsciousness they usually dreamed. Dreams explored people's imaginations, memories, and their ambitions. They were their inner thoughts; hopes and fears. Some students had dreams . they will remember for the rest of their lives.

Junior Melissa Steinkraus said, "When I was little, I had a dream that my house was on an ocean. And this ship came to save us, but they didn't have enough room for us so they cut us up and put us in boxes, so we would fit on the ship. And as if that wasn't weird enough, the dream was in navy blue." Another junior, Mark Merboth remembered one, "I was standing on top of an pyramid in sun god robes and hundreds of women were throwing pickles at

me." So what could these dreams possibly mean? They could be nothing more than a wild imagination, or they could be true expressions of a person's inner thoughts. According to Sigmund Freud, "The fulfillment of a wish is its only purpose the dream therefore is the fulfillment of a wish." Sometimes people haven't realized what they have wanted until they have dreamed of it. Dreams come true because people have wanted them to come true. Junior Ryan Perry said, "I've had dreams before about girls I've been interested in, like us dating, and then we really end up dating." Some pe~ple wake up after a real intense dream and think about what they can • do to make the dream happen. And then it does. Who can say where the line was drawn between reality and the imagination.

A NIGHT TO REMEMBER

Fun and football made Homecoming fantastic

By Laura .Ryan

The excitement began on September 14 as the 1994 practiced hard," senior varsity player Aaron Wilkason, said. Homecoming court was announced. The nominees were Fantastic Voyage was this year's Homecoming theme. Most • Heather Akin, Eddie Brown, Ryan Douglas, Angie King, students said they had come to dance, meet new people, be with Richard King, Michael Lee, Eric Maly, Jennica Peterson, Carrie Pierce, Shannon Rock, Molly Taylor, and Jeremy Woerner. The tension grew in anticipation of the big Homecoming game and the dance to follow, where the royalty would be announced. The football team was pumped and ready to meet their opponents, the Northeast Rockets. As the cool evening air set in, our football team became hotter. Although the crowd was tired from the days activities, the spirit was alive and well. It was a victorious Homecoming night for the Links. They beat the Northeast Rockets 21-7. "We earned our victory, we played and

their freinds and stay warm. "I came to be social and I like to dance," Junior Trisha Solomas said with a smile. Sophomore Eric Wolford said, "I came because it was my first year." The votes were counted for king and queen as students crowded around the court. Principal Piller took the mike and began to announce the winnners. "And this years homecoming king and queen are ," she said as the tension began to build and there was a long pause, " Molly Taylor and Eddie Brown." After the music died down and the crowd drifted out, the Pomalinks began the clean up. Another successful Lincoln High Homecoming had come to an end.

FACING IT & MAKING IT In the real world

By Amber Nelson & Laura Ryan

Lincoln High students faced many issues in their everyday lives. Issues .such as geuing good grades, sex, drug abuse, racism, and family life were confronted by teens everyday.

Senior Carissa Nevels said her future was a constant worry, "College is coming up real fast, and it has a major effect on your life."

Junior Paulo Vandenberg said he was concerned about college and career choices as w~ll. "I want to succeed," he said. Student s were also concerned about recreational drinking and drug use. "I don't think partying is bad but lots of teens don't know how to handle it and they go overboard," said sophomore Sarah Austin. Becau se they impair your judgement, often drinking and drug use could turn !nto drinking and drug abuse. Junior Shandra Olson said, "When someon~ abuses drugs they start doing them all the time, they start coming to school high and they can't concentrate and learn." Drugs and alcohol for some high school kids became a gateway to other problems including sex,

trouble with the law and problems at home. Sophomore Lyon Avila said, "When a person is messed up they don't realize what they are doing and they do things that they normally

ant andenberg

wouldn't do." Teen s having sex in the 90's was not an unusual thing. Junior Jackey Bratt said "I see too many girls having sex in relationships because they feel like it will make the relationship stronger, even though they aren't ready yet." She also added that "Sometimes it all comes down to self respect." Another • issue that concerned students was racism. Junior Shonna Brown said, "One concern I have is racial problems that students may try to hide and never deal with." There was always support for students in the school in the form of the mediation program where students help other students confidentially . Senior Matt Garren said, "When students have problems and they don't want to fight it out, as mediators we ask what the problem is, how they feel about it and what caused the problem, then we work to solve it."

.STAND OUT STYLE

Students show off individual flair

By Elizabeth Barajas

Hula hoops, break dancing, Michael Jackson, Milli Vanilli; what do these things have in common? They were all things students used to love, they were what they couldn't live without, they defined an era, they were trends. FromBurtandErnie to Beavis andButthead, students remembered the way trends went by as fast as they could change the channels on the television. "lnjr. high I wore Vision Street Wear, which had lots of big prints. Now the styles have little drawings, itis way different," said senior Adam Winsenburg. "I remember when people used to roll their pants up so tight around their ankles, that they cut their circulation off to their toes. Now everyone has got the sag going on; their pants hang off their butts," said sophomore Brandy Satchell. "I wear anything baggy. Brands 1ike Dufff, Etnies, Girl are good," said sophomore Andy Pedersen. Though some students were nostalgic enough to break out the bell bottoms and platform shoes, some said they would never

go retro. "I hate that. They just want to draw attention; when it's carried to the extreme, it's an eye sore ," said senior Spencer Owen. Most students agreed that "Earth tone" was more than an environmental thing; going natural was going in style. " It used to take me up to 15 min. to curl my bangs in the morning. I wear my hair more natural now," said senior Jerini Hames. "Some skater styles are starting to look more preppy jock sweaters and stripped sweatshirts and stuff," said Winsenburg. As people's wardrobe changed, so did the movies and television shows they liked to watch. Hames said that Who's the Boss and Growing Pains used to be her favorite T.V. shows. "I watch Beverly Hills 90210 and Melrose Place now," she said. "I used to watch You Can't Do That on Television, and Danger Mouse. Now I'm more into hard hitting Japanese animation ," said Winsenburg. Whether it was baggy or bell bottoms , long hair or short, rap or country, each LHS student found a style of their own. •

MO' MONEY... Students need it

By Brittany Leigh

Money, money, money; from clothes to music, shoelaces to pizza, students seemed to spend their money faster than they earned it. Jay Applebee spent most of his money on his collection of over 200 shoelaces. "People don't think you can spend a lot of money on shoelaces, but when you're an avid collector it ' s very easy to watch an entire paycheck be spent on what you collect." Clarke Wilson liked to live on a higher plane, which led to her collection of 12 platform shoes. "I don't have

Nebraska it is pretty hard to find them." Most students were surprised with how much money they spent on everyday things. "At school I like to eat at least two pieces of pizza , pop , and M&M's Then , after school I usually hang out r with my friends and we'll be hungry so we go out to eat." said junior Bennett Schmid. "I spend all of my money on records." said Ben Armstrong. Erica DeFrain says she "Spends every penny I earn on concert tickets, and shows." Basically, whether students spent many pairs of platforms so I end up spending their money on c.d. ' s, clothes or shoelaces they most of my money on them. Especially since in Lincoln, all agreed on one thing: there ' s never enough.

A DRIVE FOR THE FUTURE And a good parking stall

By Kate Muchisky

There was a liberating feeling in getting behind the wheel and taking your life in your hands. There was a feeling of freedom in getting in a car and driving away from parents or to activities. Junior Elizabeth Schuller said "I don't have to depend on my parents to pick me up and take me home, even though I know they secretly enjoyed it." But there was more to dri v ing than just freedom. It's a responsibility , right? Yep. It's doing Chinese Firedrills or driving reverse down a highway. Senior Miranda France said, " I've changed my clothes while driving." However , it wasn't all fun times; accidents do happen. Sophomore Emily Madison told about her car's mishaps, "Out of.twenty days of having the car] parked at school, twelve of those days it had an accident. Not as a result

of my actions." What about those other people on the road, you know , the ones who can ' t drive. Junior Aaron Dupree said , "I don ' t abuse [my license] a lot , I just speed and run red lights and I've only gotten one ticket." Some have mastered the technique. Junior Sarah Thompson said " I drive sitting on a phone book, it keeps my eyes on the road." Others are still trying. Senior Carrie Pierce said, "Well , I speed a lot, and I 've hit a few curbs, and I almost got in a couple accidents. I'm just not a very good driver." There were always friends begging for rides and never offering gas money. Schuller wanted to know, "Who puts the price on gas anyway? But even with gas and insurance to pay, most people agree, a driver's license is a pretty handy thing.

What Goes Up ....

Fall Play was U The Down Staircase

--By Erin Hansbrough-----------------

Photos by Taura Hom

The all-school play was the first for director John Heineman who took over for Joe Kreizenger. Kreizinger is now living in Norfolk, teaching high school drama and performing in community plays there.

Although Heineman had directed one act plays in the past , this was his first full length feature. The play was also the first for many sophomores who earned roles in the play. These sophomores were being guided by the talent of experienced LHS actors: Laura Reznicek, Sarah Peters, Susan Lott and Eddie Brown.

This being Heineman' s first year as drama teacher made it fitting that the play was about another first year teacher, Sylvia Barrett, played by senior Laura Reznicek.

Ms. Barrett is a new teacher at a large

inner city New York high school. Having just graduated from college she is ready to begin making an positive impact on her student ' s Ii ves until she is met by the cold reality of life in the classroom. She immediately runs into students who are having trouble adjusting socially, economically and otherwise to a school dominated by white Christian men. The majority of the opposition she meets is in the form of one Joe Ferone, a juvenile delinquent played by senior Eddie Brown.

Although the setting of the play seemed a lot like Lincoln High, Reznicek said that it is important to note that it was indeed not LHS , but only a similar scenario.

"We are trying to avoid making it look like Lincoln High, but there are a lot of similariti es, " she said.

VFB off to a rough start

By Renae Rottinghaus

According to varsity football coach, Eric Knoll, this year's Lincoln High School varsity football team looked good. After a disappointing start at 1-1, coach Knoll hoped to get the team back on its feet.

"We had a really tough schedule; it looked like we're going to be playing a lot of teams and we hope to be more competitive," Knoll said.

"The first game we looked pretty good, at the Southeast game we looked pretty bad," he added.

Knoll expressed his feelings towards the seniors on the team, "They're hard working athletes and . good students in the school. We're proud of them, not only in the school, but in the community

as well."

Senior defensive tackle Jevon Payne has another perspecti ve,"lt' s an excellent team. I really don't know why. All the players are showing a lot of heart. It's different from last year. Everyone's showing a lot more spunk," he said.

The team has been off to a healthy start with only a few scattered injuries. Sandifer injured his back keeping him out of the Southeast game, Robert Burton was rushed to the hospital during the Sioux City Heena game, and Bobby Case suffered a sprained ankle that was healed in time for the Southeast game, but then reinjured.

The team worked very hard even though they had a record of 3-6.

.. SPIKE GLORY Varsity volleyball strikes the season

By Renae Rottinghaus

The varsity yolleyball team was "On the Road Again" because of the damage done to our gym floor. Even though they didn't have the home field advantage like all the other schools, they managed to play just fine. They say that if you have a home court to play on you will always win, but that wasn't the case. "Our 14-14 record doesn't reflect how much of a successful season it was. Almost all losses came to the top five teams in the state because we had to play them again and again. We were the team that challenged East the most (Number one in the country)," said Coach Nelson-Hitz.

"We weren't expected to be a very good team but when we all got together

and played as a team we proved everyone wrong. We almost beat East and that was the highlight of our season , " said Sophomore Kendra Schuerman.

Sherri Lang had 231 kills , Erin Brestel had 71 ace blocks. The team had 211 ace blocks in one season , 87 .3 % attack percentage for one season.

Sherri Lang said , "The season went really well. We started off slow but we improved , obviously because we almost beat East. We grew a lot as a team , and we had to overcome some obstacles but, that helped us out in the long run."

We will have a lot of experience coming back for next year ," said Coach Nelson-Hitz.

By Kate Muchisky

Photos by Alicia Cariotta

There were many new faces on the Lincoln High tennis team this year. Both the Varsity and the Junior Varsity teams were comprised of juniors, sophomores and freshmen.

Varsity player sophomore David Hansbrough said, "For not knowing each other I think we really grew together."

Through the season both teams practiced hard and improved. J.V. player junior Thanh Nguyen said, "We're more consistent, really ... we've been practicing really hard."

Practice wasn't always easy through, J. V. player sophomore Phong Nguyen said, "We just kept running until he said stop."

The coach for the varsity tennis team was Dennis Hershberger. The J. V. coach was Brad Berka. "The coaches were really good, they know what they were talking about.," said J.V. player Charlie Pierce.

•

Varsity player sophomore Chad Parker said, "They talk to you every couple of games or so and tell you what you're doing wrong and right. they watch your games." Coach Hershberger was pleased with the improvments the team made. He said "The highlight was seeing the improvments from the begining to the end of the short, ten week season."

The team mates also looked to each other for support. Phong Nguy en said,

"The team is a great bunch of guys, all different and all bring a different aspect...!' ve never seen guys like this in my life, I think it's a major experience." Hershberger said "The unity on the team was solid. They enjoyed each others company."

Tennis was hard work but Parker said,"It's a lot of fun, especially the team mates and road trips ... All the team mates are crazy."

The boys played for a number of different reasons. Varsity player junior Josh Barber said "I love to compete, I get a really good feeling when I'm out there playing." Pierce, on the other hand said "I just want to have fun."

~irl's golf is all good

By Brittany Leigh Photos By Sarah Peters

The girl's golf team was very successful this year, and made it to state. The team's best score was 238. They broke last years record.

• The coach of the team, John Brady, helped the team a lot. "He gave us advice on our swings, and on different techniques" said senior Amy Bouwens. "He always encouraged me, and ifl felt down about the game, he always reassured me and I felt fine?' said junior Susan !Gene

The girls practiced everyday about two or three hours a day. Itwasn'tall workthough, "The night before ( a game) we would have a golf party where we'd rent movies and have pizza," said Kiene.

"The team got along with each other well, and encouraged each other" said sophomore Melissa Eskra. They've played courses at Mahoney , Highlands, and Pioneers to name a few. State was played at Norfolk Country Club.

The team had many positive thoughts looking back at their season. "It was a lot of fun and the biggest reason was the team" said Kiene. "I'm going to look back and think it was a very successful year" said Bouwens. "It was really fun, we accomplished a lot and we were the first team for Lincoln High to go to state." said sophomore Amy Henderson.

TALENT PUTS TEAM IN LEAD

Strong numbers help~ cross country team

Stories and Photos By Joe Tidball

Youth and inexperience were compensated with talent and strong numbers as the boys' and girls' cross country teams completed successful seasons.

According to head coach Bob White, the team's lack of experience was less of a factor as the season progressed.

"Inexperience on both sides, a lack of self confidence, and know ledge of the sport hurt them at first," he said. Although young, both teams proved throughout the season that they could run with the· best teams in the state, as top times were turned in by sop ho-

more Mike Bickley and junior Monica Kepler.

Another important factor in the Link's success was the team's depth; 25 boys and 18 girls checked out for this year's team; a big increase from last year. Numbers had been down but White sees the larger team as a continuing trend.

"The senior class last year didn't have a lot of participation in athletics. But now there is more competition, they're going to have more competition as time goes on too, you can't sluff anymore," White replied.

Monica Kepler said that the

addition of Carol Nunally as assistant coach helped the girls' team mature and come together as a more cohesive group. "She is real encouraging and gives us a lot of good advice," Kepler said. Former Link, TJ Hubbard, also returned to help coach the boys' team. One of the most decorated runners to come out of Lincoln High, Hubbard proved to be a vital asset to this year's team, according to sophomore Ron Dulas.

"He always ran with us, while Coach White stayed on his bike," Dulas said.

DOWN N' DIRTY

Softball teatn goes in the dirt to deliver

This was the first year to have a Junior Varsity team which made things for players much different than before. Many aspects of softball stayed the same throughout the years but the character of the team always changed.

Junior Heidi Bartlett said, "This year our team got along better and we didn't get down on ·each other for making mistakes as much."

Senior Stephanie Aden said, "We didn'tdependonjustone person, instead we depended on the whole team,"

There are different reasons why students choose softball as their favorite sport.

Junior Cindy Turman said, . "In softball you can slide and get down and dirty without

By Amber Nelson

getting fouls called on you like basketball."

Sophomore Amy Cariotto said, "I think the team played well. We got to know each other well and had good teamwork."

To be a good softball player you need some basic qualities besides just skill.

Heidi Bartlett said, "You need good team focus. You can't get down on other teammates or else you won't have good teamwork."

There are ten different positions or the field and Stephenie Aden likes pitching as well as catching because, "you can strike out people and you have control over the game."

Nerves and excitement go through your head before you make a play agreed Turman and Erin Lathrop.

Senior Melanie Tramp said, "My coach taught me to think you can't compete with me because I'm the best."

Tramp thought LHS had a very strong year and would have only changed one thing. "I would of had us had our downfall earlier in the year, instead of at state. If we would of lost once before than we could of come back strong like southeast, she said."

Lathrop thought it was a successful year. She tried to help the varsity team by cheering them up, so their spirit was high and the team would do well.

Junior Heidi Bartlett waits patiently for action at Shortstop.

GYMNASTS CHALK UP ANOTHER

-Ry Amber Nelso ,

Lincoln Hig);i gymnastics team, despite their modest size was trying hard to vault with the best of them. Though opposing teams were sometimes intimidating, LHS gymnasts were turning into , through increased experience and maturity, a competitive equal. Sophomore Tricia Rutledge said, "It's good to have a small team because the coaches can help you more individually, but sometimes it hurts our score because we don't have as many people to get high scores from."

Gymnastics had many different events to compete in.

Sophomore Nicole Swanson said she likes "the vault best because it goes fast and your not as nervous." Swanson also added, "Right before I take off I think through the steps: run fast, throw hands up and push off "

Sophomore D.J. Brooks said, "To be a good gymnast you need to have flexibility, strength, confidence and bravery. with thosa things then you can focus your mind.'"

Senior Mindy Griggs said, "J'he only thing I would have changed about the se.ason would have been to start practicing earlier."

LHS gymnast competitors had a lot of fun, met new friends and had some unforgettable experiences.

Brooks said, "One thing I regret about the season is when my pants fell down at my first meet when I was doing the vault. The judges asked me if I wanted to try again or take a zero. I took the zero because I was so embarrassed."

Sophomore Mark V anAndel said he was satisfied with his individual season but added, "My season could have been better with more difficult routines."

Rutledge added, "The most fulfilling aspect of gymnastics would be the fun of meeting new friends and going to meets to watch other people perform."

When Griggs took a look back at the season she said, "Overall the season was good. It improved from last year because of a bigger team and stronger ability. Because of the young competitors, the team should be even stronger next year."

An older and more experienced wrestling team this year caused the Links to go far. Not only did the team's record go up but so did the team's spirit and ability to win against tougher competition. "I feel the team did better this year than we did last year, some of us wrestled over the summer, also we are an older team," said junior Toby Schroder.

The team took first at the Creighton Prep Tournament, which was an improvement from their not placing last year. Many of the wrestlers were also rated in the top six in the state.

' ' The learn did well this year be-

cause the coaches pushed us to our highest potential arid put us up against some of the best competition in the state," said senior wrestler Jeremy Cummings.

The coaching staff did a very commendable job this year. "I think the coaches were very good, you can talk to them about anything," junior Erick Warner said.

This year's wrestling season was successful and perhaps the wrestlers will be just as successful in the future, as well as the Link's future teams.

HAVIN' A BALL While Shootin' Hoops

By Brittany Leigh

The 1995 reserves boys basketball team had a season of new beginnings. The coach, Mr. Zabawa ,was a rookie, and many of the boys on the team.had never played before. "It was an experience, the team took a lot of guys who hadn't played a lot of basketball, and a rookie coach, and basically put a team together'' said Korey Knecht, a sophomore and guard on the team. Sophomore reserve Rhett Zuspin agreed 'Toe coach was like 24[years old] and we'd joke with him about the weight he'd gained in the season."

The team.had some memorable wins and close -games. Said Knecht, "Our first win was kind of memorable, at the last second we made the shot. It kind of stood for our whole season, sometimes we looked good, sometimes bad, we had a lot of ups and downs."

"We had a good season, even if our record didn't reflect it, we came close to beating a whole lot of really good teams." said Zuspan.

The junior varsity team also had their first game be the one known as the most memorable one."Yeah, Imad[freshman Imad Abdul] on the first play of the first game dunked the basketball in the wrong basket." said junior guard Jason Froschhieser. Junior varsity boys had a good season and got along well together, "The junior varsity team worked really good together, we really worked as a team." said Froschieser.

BASKETBALL DREAMS

Girl's Varsity Basketball doesn't give up

By Elizabeth Barajas

Everyone had a dream. For the Girls Varsity basketball team, the dream was to take State like an April storm. Not all dreams, however, come true.

"It was really disappointing, we had too many ups and downs," said junior Erin Brestel.

The team had a roller coaster season with a record of 12-8.

In addition, the team did not have a real home court because of the repairing of Johnson gym.

Teammates agree however, that there were other factors that contributed to the season's record.

"We just needed to be consistent; we needed to do it," said Brestel.

The season wasn't what most of the members expected, but they knew how to go out with style.

Their last game was played on the new floor of the Johnson gym. The Girl's Varsity team crushed Omaha Benson, a sweet victory for the team.

Thought the varsity team did not win districts and take the title at State , their dreams were not completely lost.

"There were a lot of people that stepped up this year. Next year we will do a lot better," said Stephanie Aden.

LADY LINKS GET UP AN D GET D O WN.

By Am b er Ne lson------------------

The J. V and Reserve links slammed the door on an impressive season and proved what teamwork can do. Along with team huddles and cheering each other on, some players like junior Tracy Brown did things like listening to Warren G to pump for the game. Every year has its main highlights for both the team and the individuals. "My best moment was when I made four three pointers at the game against Hastings, said Brown."

J.V. player Laura Kepler said one memorable game would have to be the one against Southeast. "They were a really good team and we worked really hard the whole game. Everything just cliqued. We ended up losing by three points but we gave them a good fight." Imagine this, your at the free throw line one

minute left of the game and your three points down. In every sport there is pressure but in basketball sometimes standing at the free throw line with every one depending on you, the pressure can be really tough. LHS players just try to block the crowd and all of the pressure out. Reserve player Jennifer Watson said, "I have a routine that I usually ,do. First two dribbles, then I spin the ball around and just try to keep my head in the game." Every season is unique and leaves a mark for the players in the following year. Angela Witte said, "It seams like this team was equal in abilities compared to teams in the past. Everyone got along and we all worked really well together. Sometimes that can make the difference between the team winning or not," said Witte.

ANYWHERE BUT HOME-WARD BOUND LHS students head for College

-- By Jessica Intermill----------------

Take seven letters and mix in a handful of parties and a smidgeon of studies. Now top that with a big dollop of responsibility and drizzle on a big decision. And a sprinkle of independence and what do you have? College. But some have it faster than others.

"I originally wanted a more challenging curriculum," stated senior Jessie Cherry who took an honors English Lit/Composition class in addition to an advanced French course at UNL, "But when I got there, I found that it was probably easier than the Lincoln High classes."

However, the general decision of those interviewed was summed up by junior Brian O'Neil when he said, "I do like college better." Senior Erin Hansborough added that, "I liked the college better, but it's hard to take all the different schedules."

Reasons for taking the courses differed among students though. O'Neil who took a math class over the summer did so be-

cause he, "wanted to be in calculus this year. I'd like to take advantage of what the school (LHS) has to offer, and once I've exhausted their curriculum, they have to pay for whatever classes I want to take. "

Senior Guang Zhu took a computer programming course because, "It wasn't offered at Lincoln High, and since they pay, why not?" Han borough, though said, "Basically I was frustrated with the classes I had had because it was all fill-inthe-blank learning." Hansborough attempted a fifth year Spanish course at the University, but dropped the class because of schedule conflicts. She added that, "Spanish five (at LHS) is really good." She attributes this to the fact that many uninterested students drop languages after the fourth year since their requirements have then been filled.

Cherry assured that, "The same people wear those 'Big Johnson T-shirts, and the only difference is that they've gotten bigger."

THE COLOR: PEOPLE

Second Language students speak of their experiences

- By Jessica Intermill

"People were dying. There were no conditions for life orfor living," said sophomore Salko Deumic of his native Bosnia. Deumic moved to Lincoln with his mother, father, and sister in September of 1993, and is enrolled in English as a Second Language classes at LHS.

Deumic and others were looking from their native lands to the United States, and on the whole, they were well recieved.

Junior Tan Pham prefers the United States to his former country, Vietnam, noting that in Vietnam, "We couldn't go to church. We had to ask the police before they would let us go."

Junior Patricia Renteria recalled that, "The first time I came to Lincoln, I didn't know English very well, but people were nice, and they helped me."

Junior Ngoc Thai had similar recollections. "The first time I came to Lincoln High, I got lost, and it was so big, but I asked for help and people helped me learn where to go," she said.

Pham said that even though his English isn't perfect, he still wants to be involved in campus life. "I want," he said, "to be in a club. I think that since I can't speak well, I don't speak often, and then people think I don't want to talk, even though I do. I need to practice, and a good way to do that is to talk to people , especially with my American friends."

Senior Andrey Koutun who moved from the Ukraine two years ago said that the most important thing to know is that, "People are about the same all over the world."

IT'S ALL IN THE TONGUE Sprechst du Deutch?

By Melissa McCan and Amber Nelson

The foreign language classes used games and fun activities to help the students understand the language better. Activities like playing bingo, acting out scenes and soap operas or giving oral reports to the class allowed students to learn and have fun at the same time.

Freshman Amanda Ford was one who transferred for a period to take chinese. Ford said she, "Enjoys the class and speaking the language. Senior Bich Tang and junior Frances Bowley were also taking chinese. Tang said, "My favorite activity is just learning new words, writing them and saying them."

Bowley said she enjoyed learning the traditional chinese dancing. "I went to Taiwan with my father when I was younger and loved the culture, shs said."

In German Senior Chris Wulf and sophomore Mary Mccaslin like to play Speil or bingo in German. Both of them took German because someone influenced them to. "My ancestors were German," said Wulf. McCasin said , "A friend of

mine was taking it."

Sophomore Anna Gei er took Latin hoping she woulolearn some terms that would help them in there planned careers. Geisler said, "I thought that it would help in chemical engineering because a lot of things in chemical engineering are named after Latin terms."

Spanish seems to have been the most popular at LHS. Juniors Katy Kuhn and Jason Stoltz enjoy the games and the fiestas that they have had in Spanish. They also agreed that the games helped them learn the language and the culture of different Spanish speaking countries. "You get to try different foods from different cultures," said Stoltz.

In all of the classes the games made the students have fun and learn at the same time. Chris Wulf said the class helped him with some of his memorization and concentration skills. Each class helped them to stand out in many ways and culturally influenced them which is what LHS is all about. *

LIGHTS, CAMERA, ACTION Practice Makes Success

By Amber Nelson-----------------

Drama, band and music members put in many hours of hard work that equaled success.

There were many diverse music groups this year, each with their own style. Junior Sarah Thompson said, "Madrigals is different because we sing Acapella and perform music from the Renaissance period. Some students make their own costume and each of us have a different style from that time period."

Despite time limitations, Varsity Swing Choir always managed to give good performances.

Senior Megan Galusha said, "Swing Choir is fun because I've always liked dancing. We get to move around a lot."

Soundsations member, junior Jenny Schenkel said, "I like to sing because its a different way to express myself. Singing comes from within you."

Stacy Porter added, "Soundsations is fun because its all girls and we're really close so it helps us blend together better as a group."

Sophomore Rachel Eskridge said, "In Sophomore Select we learn the fundamentals of singing. It also helps me improve skills, like being able to work with people ~ven if you don't like them."

Students had a variety of instrument classes to choose from at LHS.

Junior Sarah Shaw said, "I chose the viola because it has a deep rich sound that I love. I like the classical orchestra because the sounds are more beautiful than other bands."

Sophomore Andy Garbacz said, "With the trombone you can do a lot of things that other instruments can't because it has a slide instead of keys. I think Jazz band is more fun because of the style and the feeling I get from the rhythm. It's almost indescribable."

Drama members also put in many hours of performing and practicing. The cast of Illusion Theater also met during a double period class. Illusion Theater is a cast of eight members who travel to different Elementary schools performing about touch and sexual abuse.

Junior Mary Rapkin likes Illusion Theater because, "It's great knowing that you 're making a difference and having fun while your doing it."

Sophomore Sharia Battle said, "Once we performed for a high school audience and we got a totally different response. There was more understanding and less giggles. I think all age levels need to find out about sexual and other kinds of abuse "

SOCIAL STUDIES STAND OUT A wide range of classes .

-By Angela Kyuregyan ---------------

When students thought of Social Studies class they thought of reading, memorizing dates and taking tests over them. Well not at Lincoln High. In fact group discussions and fun ruled in Social Studies classes.

"We're like one big happy family. We like to know each other real good and we just like to have fun." Junior Jessica Bickert about her Global Perspectives class said.

Lincoln High students could choose from classes ranging from Global Perspectives, a one semester, applied current world events class to Western Experience, a year long double block, Western Civilization and Western Literature. Junior Susanne Evans said she liked the Wes tern Experience because they had a lot of discussions in it.

Sophomore Katie Skean said about The American Experience class "It' the first time I've ever been challenged, because ... the text book doesn't have bold face words and it's hard to find the terms if they're not bold faced." Skean thought the class was open and discussion ba ed. Criminal Justice student, junior Cory Lyons said "On field trips we actually get to see things." Students enjoyed seeing actual examples instead of reading it out of a book.

Psychology class had a higher expectation. Junior Corissa Stewart said it wa "really flexible, not like a regular class." Some thought Psychology required a lot concentration.

Senior Travis Amen said his philosophy class has "actual learning experience, not just memorizing. This is so you can write it in on a test and fill in the quote ." This year students threw away past misconceptions of social studies, and clas room environments, because Lincoln High is standing apart.

The class taught skills as well as knowledge and many students felt it would help them in the future. Senior Michael Bauer said "I'm rounding myself out as a person."

Academic Decathlon was a class that Junior Hal Hanson said "I think the imporfeatured subjects from economics and genetics to art and music. Senior Jennifer Davis explained "Basically what we do is we research, we get together, we try and answer questions together in a group, we give presentations, we listen to presentations." Sophomore Marshall Currin agreed "It's a collective, everybody helps everybody .. .! love the way the ·class is structured because you can learn at your own pace."

Academic Decathlon is a national organization, each year they hold a competition where students from around the country can take a test, for which awards are given. Most students in the class said the test was not the reason they took the class.

Academic Decathlon helped students in a number of ways. Davis said " I think the class is helping me in that it's giving a wider view of the world , it gives a little more depth."

The students in Academic Decathlon agreed that much of learning was left up to them, and they got out of it what they put into it. Currin said " It's a class where I'm constantly being challenged about something." ...

Sparks Fly with Vocational Technology

Some classes were a lot more than worksheets and required reading. Take for instance vocational/technical classes. In vocational technology students actually did the things that they'd been learning about. As department head , Gary Corneer said "Vocational tech is an active appliction of knowledge. Math english, science, and history can all be applied."

Also students could make and learn things that were useful in their daily lives . Senior Robert Park liked his machine tool and manufacturing class because he could, "make things ·I need like a trailer and tractor parts."

Students are increasingly taking vocational tech. classes at Lincoln high. LHS students took these classes to prepare for many situations they will encounter in life. Students also had the option of taking a double period class,

which can sometimes even earn college credits due to a deal worked out between LHS and Southeast Community College.

Trade and auto schools are frequently recommended by the counselors to many students because the technical fields have a high growth rate. those who go to trade and automotive schools such as Southeast Community College and ITT Tech u ually graduate in a shorter amoun t of time than students attending a college or univer ity because they require less written work and skill is accentuated. Nguyen Vu who plans to study welding at SCC gave some reasons for wanting to attend a trade school, "I want to study welding for only two years , not four years like a regular university. I want to get a job as soon as possible, what I won ' t learn in SCC I will learn by working. "

AHEALTHY WAY TO TRAVEL Driving for Fitness

- By Renae Rottinghaus---------------

Not all classes at . Lincoln High are based on tests and books. Classes like health and drivers ed are based on how well you know your abilities.

Health is based on how well you know how healthy you are, what health condition you should be in, how your body works, rape, sexual education, and sexual harrassment.

"Mr. Mueller was a very nice and fair teacher. We learned a lot without doing hard work. It was an easy A," commented Sophomore Tara McGhee.

Some teachers make you do a lot of hard work from the textbook and give you hard tests, but most teachers here don't.

"I learned heart disease is the number one killer," said Sophomore Scott Wills. Sophomores Jennifer Watson and D.J. Brooks said, "I liked the speakers, especially the speakers talking about rape."

Lots of students take drivers ed because it is a fun and easy class to pass. Even though it is an easy class you learn a lot about how to drive, what to do in emergency situations, and what not to do. In simulation you learn how to park , what to do if a car pulls out in front of you, if you get a flat tire, if your brakes go out, and other problems you might face while driving.

Sophomore Kelly Simpson said, "Mr. Czeranko's nickname is blinky because he talks with his eyes closed, opens them and blinks a lot, and then closes them again. Mr. Simpson sings with the radio while you are driving and while learning in class."

Many students warned people who have drivers ed not to sit .in the front of class because Mr. Czeranko spits while he is talking. Most people have already had a shower by then.

Weird Science

LHS Science Classes

-By Brit Leigh------------------

White lab coats, odd chemical concoctions, animal experimentation. Sounds like an old horror movie, right? Well all of this and more was going on right here in the many different science classes at LHS.

"I really like the freedom we have in choosing projects in our class," said senior Pat Patton. In double period Enviromental Studies class students were able to choose their own projects, everything from making a movie about biology for fifth graders to see to helping Elliot elementary students with their Earth Day play. Junior Judd Griffith chose to "work at the children's zoo on the tree growing program."

Students in Zoology got to experience hands-on fun with dissection. Most students thought that the shark was their favorite thing to dissect~ but others didn't find it quite as neat. "It was messy and it

stunk." said Scott Stava.

Fetal Alcohol Syndrome was the focu of an experiment done by the Zoology class. They used mice to show the effects of alcohol on the babies of a mother who drinks while pregnant.

Richard King disliked the experiment because he, " didn't like how the testing was on mice, because they had to kill them, and I miss those mice."

Labs featuring measurement, volume, mass, density, electron probability, atoms, temperature, and solutions were done in a number of classes.

Many students agreed that they liked the do-it-yourself way more than being told about something in a book and ju t having to accept it. Senior Tim Anderson said, "I like the hands-on experience that the labs and activities give us, that and I also like the Trials Of Life videos that we get to see."

Not Just For Nerds LHS Mathmatics

By Robin Stricklin

Most students think of math class as a required class that no one likes to take. Let's face it, not everyone gets excited crunching numbers or working logic problems. However, many students considered math their favorite class and realized its necessity in the job market. The highest math class offered at Lincoln High was calculus. LHS calculus is similar to the University of Nebraska calculus class, only it worked at a pace more realistic to high school students. There were other alternative math classes for those who were not interested in the regular classes such as geometry or algebra. These students can chose from classes like transitional math , statistics, or discreet math.

The math club was very active at Lincoln High, competing with other school by taking tests at math competitions Lincoln High School did very well on the AJME test. LHS junior Dan Nickerson came in first in the state , and junior Rachel Yung, and senior Eric Maly tied for second. They qualified to compete in a regional test. Having skills in mathematic is a necessity for a society entering the faste t growing technological era in the history of The United States. With the many math classes offered , LHS students should be well prepared for the twenty- first century.

LHS HAS A PLACE FOR ALL

'~Look at that nerd." ''What a freak." As the fall term began at junior high schools, the halls were doubtlessly filled with such comm~nts . . During my junior high years I received a few of these insults, and a few times I insulted others in similar ways. I did this to fit in.

As I entered the halls of Lincoln High, I was surprised to find that this was not the atmosphere. In fact, I said "Hello," to people who I h.ad not talked to for years, for fear that I would be labeled. Lincoln High did not have less cliques as I had been told, rather, the cliques that were here were less exclusive and more accepting of new members. Lincoln High was definitely lacking the disgusting snobbery of junior high.

ALL IN THE FAMILY

By Kate Muchisky

There were friendly faces everywhere in the halls of Lincoln High but nothing took the place of hav... ing a sibling in the same school. Senior Jud Griffith said, "There's always someone there to talk to and hang out with and go to lunch with We're best friends, pretty much."

For Lincoln Highsiblings there were always rides hpme and private tutors. Sopliomore Eva Barajas said, "I think it's cool • when we're in the same classes because then we can study together."

, Most siblings agreed it was handy to have their brother or sister around. Griffith said, "It's convenient an it helps keep us close."

. The information super• highway, once only a concept of the proposed future, is now a reality not only for bands and businesses but for the general public, students included.

While using modem service is not cheap, with process ranging from 50 cents to $4 an hour, in addition to a monthly user fee, it is still very attractive to many people. "Mod m services allow access to a wealth of info~mation, they are fairly quick, and are much faster method of research, : says senior Mike Bauer~ Junior William Crabb agrees that are useful, but says, "It's not pro-

gressing as fast as people think it is."

Crabb prefers to use Cyberspace, a local BBS which has nine user spaces. Time to use these Spaces is bought in credits which cost fifty cents apiece. Crabb likes "meeting new people and learning things you otherwise wouldn't learn" on Cyberspace. Bauer enjoys "being able to go anywhere and get information from all over. " Currently Bauer logs OJ:} at the University Computer Resource Center because there are no student accessible modem services available to studentsatLincolnHigh, although

OCKER: MYTH OR MAGIC ents find home away from home

By Taura Horn

Your Locker: Bermuda Triangle or cozy corner?

Lockers were homes for books, food, gym clothes and a surface to plaster as many pictures and momentos of the school year that people could find. Students depended on their lockers to store all their things this school year.

Some students used their lockers as trash pits, throwing ~nything and everything in

their personal holes in the w~ll. It was the center from which their day rotated around between classes. Lockers were a placeforpeople to meet their friends after school and hanged out headquarters for some students.

"Me and my friends decided not to get our lockers by each other so we could meet new people. When we went to get our lockers, at the last

minute we got them right nextJo each other. Then we pretended that it was an accident that it happened that way. It was kinda funny how it worked out," Robin Stricklin. Junior Caleb Pew was more pragmatic about his locker. He said that he thought decorating lockers was dumb. "I just have my books, and materials."

Country

dancing new trend among students

~Y Erin Hansbrough

County dancing may bring to mind old cowboys in big hats .and women in petticoats. B i.lt country dancing has started to find popularity an1ong younger people, including Lincoln High students.

Every Sunday night, the Pla-Mor ballroom, located at 6600 West "0" street, host country dancing for people of •all ages.

Guitars and Cadillacs, located at 5400 "O" street, also offers all-ages dancing, but according to senior Jessica Mefford, "Guitars is more junior high kids."

Lots of high school students show up at the Pla-Mor to two step with bands like Sandy Creek arid Bordertown, who play a mix of country and western hits. In fact, the music is •part of what draws people in to the dancing in the first place. When asked what got her interested in country dancing, senior Jessica Mefford replied, "The country music basically."

When asked whether ·she though~ that country dancing was getting more popular among high school, Senior Melanie Tramp was unsure. She said that while she had noticed a few high school students in the country crowd, it was not an overwhelming number.

GIFT OF GRATITUDE

Senior class gift is a tradition of appreciation

By Kate Muchisky

Through the years Lincoln High' s graduating classes have left their mark on the school. The clock above the front stairway, the Links sculpture and the marquee are just a few.

In the early years the senior class gift was a project that the class officers worked on. When the classes no longer elected officers the counseling center took over the project. In recent years the Student Council has been in charge of it. Ideas could be given

to the Student Council and when an idea was agreed upon an extra dollar was tacked on to the cost of the graduation hats.

. ;Lincoln High teacher Randy Ernst said, "The senior class gift is something that needs to be revitalized." This year the administration hoped to turn the project back over to the senior class by holding meetings open to all seniors. It woul<l; be headed by the Student Council and held after school.

SCHOOL A BUMPY ROAD

Seniors ready to merge into the main stream

By Eric Maly

To say the least, these past few years of high-school have been interesting. I've had bad times, and a few· good times. Overall, my experience at this high-school can be compared with that of a ride on a country road.

The path was narrow. Having only two lanes, passing became dangerous~ The ride was bumpy; graceful moments occured in short intervals. The scenery around the road was aesthetic, but rarely noticed by the driver. The speed limit was fifty-five.The car ate gas as it progressed through the ever-changing conditions of the road. The eo le we drove by

seemed as lonely and lost as we were. But at times, the people nodded as we passed. It was difficult to see an end to it on the horizon. •Road seemed only to lead to more road. But we stuck it out in hopes of reaching a different way; an exit.

Although this road never seems to end, we will eventually find the exit. It's a dispiriting adventure that I am presently havi~g to face. I have yet to find an exit for the interstate that will let me cruise smoothly into my future at sixtyfive miles per hour. ButI'mready for it. Just point me to the exit arid let me on m wa .

TEACHER MEMORIES

- By Amber Nelson --------------

Two different age groups, two different views, well maybe not all of the time. Although teachers and students don't always agree, students do look up to and remember their favorite teachers. Senior Justin Chrisp said, "Mr. Ernst is cool because he makes everything fun when he teaches it. Ithinkit's the easiest way to learn."

Students wer~ about ready to move on to a more grown up life style and before they go they have to say good-bye to everyone that has been a part of their career here at LHS. So many seniors look back to their favorite teachers. Teachers did a number of things to push

their students along and make them strive for success. Senior Staci Angus said, "I like a teacher that challenges you like Miss Roderick. In 10th grade American History she pushed me to enter a speech contest and I won and was sent to United Nations contest as a delegate. She made me realize that if you dream hard enough you can do anything."

Senior Andrea Bethune said, "I like Mr. Ewing b·ecause he's concerned about his students. He shows that he cares by taking the time to talk to you."

Most students agreed that it's nice when your on a friendship level with the teacher.

TOUGH GIRL .

- By Brittany Leigh

Have you ever loved something so much that you didn't care what others thought, that you would do anything to acheive or obtain it?

Senior Lisette Magorian was never encouraged to try out for the football team, but because she loved the game so much, she didn't let it stop her from becoming team manager. "When I decide to try out my parents didn't want me to, but I did any ways. I practiced with everyone else for a while and I got to suit up and then we tried out but I was cut, so I became a.manager." "I love playing football and the

team was neat too, at first I didn't think they'd accept a girl, but they were really good about it." she said. Lisette loved playing so much, she would even play before and after school. "When the weather was nice ,sometimes I would even throw the ball around in the parking lot right outside of Lincoln High".

Lisette liked playing defense the most, and her ideal position to play would be secondary safety. This • fall she also tried out for wrestling team manager, said Lisette,"! just love the sports and wish that niore girl would try out."

LHS one of best in nation

"I just know I'm going to get my foot stuck in a pot hole , and trip causing a huge dominio effect, in front of me, while still being trampled over like a worm caught in a buffalo stampeed. Then Lincoln High' s marching band will be the laughing stock of the Orange Bowl."

The truth is LHS marching band has done quite well. ''We recivied several superior ratings around the state" said Lincoln High marching band teac};ler, Mr.

Rush.

LHS marchers also lead the Magic Kingdom Parade, in Florida. Not to mention that Lincoln High was one of only eight Marching bands from the nation to play in the Orange Bowl Parade. Both privileges were earned by audition tapes sent in by Rush. It would be a large mistake on behalf of the students to take them for granted.

COPY AND CAPTIONS

By Jessica Intermill

Imagine if you will , that you have walked into a room where a one -handed mannequin stood draped in holiday lights, wearing sunglasses and holding a broom. You looked out the window , and saw fish walk across the marquee Where were you? In room 312 , the publications room. "It's fun!" said junior Laura Ryan of the Links yearbook. "The atmosphere is homey, and you can really learn not to procrastinate.''

Junior Hal Hansen enjoyed the Advocate because , "It improves my writing skills, but involvement in journalism also has civic implications. Establishing facts and expressing an informed opinion is a cornerstone of America~ society , but kids are often excluded."

Junior Kari Oppegard said , " The yearbook ha s always been a great way to preserve memories, and it's really rewarding to see a final product that you've worked on all year."

Senior Robin Stricklin, a veteran of both staffs sees the two as very different. "The new paper is relaxed, whereas on yearbook · you have to handle stress a

lot."

Ryan agreed that stress is a factor of yearbook production , though not the only factor. " You need to have dedication , be outgoing , nosey , and able to just go up to anyone and ask a question, along with handling the pressure," said Ryan.

Advocate editor , senior Ellie Erickson said that a newspaper writer can ' t , " Fall for the usual crap that students try to pull , you have to be analytical , and know how to fit in with people. The Advocate is a very leftist staff, so it may be hard for a conservative writer to find a place."

On the other hand , yearbook editor , senior Elizabeth Barajas said that the yearbook was "A place for everyone , though it does help not to be too introverted , and fairly social. Both staffs are great , but they have different feels. The yearbook is a lasting product , but the newspaper is usually just looked at for a day or two and then you throw it away. Well , you could save your newspapers , but I doubt it would be the same as having your yearbook around."

STATE OF STUCO

tuCo provided stand-out leadership

What was unmistakably there , yet barely seen, slightly mentioned, unspeakably useful, and represents Lincoln High? Not the Links sculpture, but the LHS Student Council.

Not only were the Student Council members around, but they also did many things for LHS. Like organizing participating, and providing leadership for the 43 Student Council Convention, hosted by LHS. Over 1,300 students from other schools spent the night at

Lincoln High. To ensure a great convention, the Student Council invited speakers , participating schools, organized the activities, provided supervision for all activities , and last but not least , remained awake through it all!

"It was a really neat thing for us to host, it was a lot of work, but it really paid off," said senior Bekka Meyer, the head organizer of convention.

Cheerleaders and Pomalinks lead LHS to victory

PUSHING POM-POMS

By Jessica Intermill ---------------

Bananas unite! Bananas split! Bananas have no lips! Peel bananas, peel, peel bananas. Go Links! Well, it made sense when the spirit squads screamed it at the games.

Cheerleaders and Pomalinks made a spirited addition to Lincoln High this year, even though re-construction of the Johnson Gym left Cheerleaders and Pomalinks essencially homeless.

"It's really hard, because we have no where to practice," said Pomalink, sophomore Rachel Meyer. "There are a lot of distractions because people ke~p walking through your lines while you are trying to concentrate on learning steps."

Varsity cheerleader, senior Ericka Jones agreed, and said that, "Space is very limited with only one gym. We'll start trying to practice, and a P .E. class will need to use the gym, and we will have to move."

Even with this hardship though, Pomalinks traveled to Florida. "The Or-

ange Bowl was great!" said Meyer. "It was kind of strange because some of the band members were saying that we shouldn't have been there because we didn'tworkhardenough, but I know a lot of Pomalinks that would say that they probably worl a lot harder than some of the band members."

Both Jones and Reserve cheerleader, Alicia Marks first became interested in cheerleading when they were young. "I would see cheerleaders on T. V., and it just looked like they were having a lot of fun," said Marks.

Junior Varsity cheerleader,junior Kelly Davis first became interested, "When I saw my sister. I just saw the fun she was having, and it also seemed like a great way to get involved."

Being in a spirit squad, though, isn't always as fun as it seems. "Sometimes," said Marks, "I get really tired of being happy."

We also appreciate all the staff members who took on an extra responsibility to help out. Kari Oppegard and Robin Stricklin for their blood sweat and tears in the people section; Laura Ryan for her advertising (and boy -crazy) techniques; Kate Muchisky for her "funny stories;" Britt Leigh for being rad; Elizabeth Barajas for being crazy; Amber Nelson for being happy (even on deadlines); Jessica Intermill for her hard work and dedication; Renae Rottinghaus for hanging in there; Alicia Cariotta, Taura Horn, Riley Peterson, Sarah Peters and all the photographers, we couldn't have done this without them. We would like to thank our advisor, Pat Engelhard for her caring, sensitivity, understanding and dedication; and also for not throwing the couch out and buying pizza when we had to stay late.

Most importantly, we would like to thank our families who we mi sed dearly as room 312 became our second home. For understanding when we came home at 10pm, and putting up with our moods when deadlines came around.
