Lincoln High School 1997 Yearbook

This 'new' dance, called the twist, was all over the community. These two Lincoln High students dance in the student lounge

The Links outplayed and outfought this game to score 6-0 against their crosstown rivals, Northeast, in 1945.

The 1920 Links yearbook boasted that the Lincoln High School debating team pro- vided 'knockdown arguments.' Tnere were twenty members on the team.

This senior girl models the fashion of 1937. This was one year before girls were allowed to win athletic letters.

Students at Lincoln High certainly have been a work in progress. A few students socialize in the hallway before classes start.

125Years of Excellence

The 125th year of LHS was one celebrated with many changes. The . south and main buildings were connected. A new pool and gym were also built. The building was changed to keep up with the needs of the ever changing students. But more important than the building, which we inhabited, were the personalities which it inspired. With all of the different thoughts, dreams, ideas and cultures, we were somehow united. Who knows what the future entails for us all, because right now we are ... A Work in Progress.

With different trends came different price ranges. "I spent $210 on a Norwegian sweater, hand made, 100% wool," said sophomore Ingrid Naumann. On the other end of the price scale, the least spent was $4 by Patrice McShane , on a shirt. Accessories were a big part in trends this last year. From belly rings to belly chains, eye color to hair color, multiple earrings to nose rings, finger and toe rings to nail rings. Senior Kevin Hunt said, "accessories accents the plain clothes look."

With the ever-changing fashion industry clothing never really went out of style. Last year, there were bell-bottom pants , the polyester suits, the thick soled shoes high-healed shoes, oh and lets not forget the ever famous platforms and the butter fly collars that some of our parents may have worn ( or maybe still do).

Spirit week arrived with a bang at Lincoln High during the week of September 30tb through October 4th. Preparing for the football game and the dance, students liftecf up their spirits by dressing up in their most wild and outrageous clothes, that some admitted they would never usually wear out in public.

Thursday was slipper day. Bunny slippers, monster slippers, gorilfa slippers, teddy bear slippers, slippers of all kinds were spotted throughout the halls. Many students enjoyed being comfy and not having to wear shoes.

Some of the music was Rap, Al-

Now that's Art!

By Nicole Nevels

Whether you loved art or just wanted to take a different kind of class, the Lincoln High Art

Department had plenty to offer. Junior Tim Bogatz has taken five art classes here at

Lincoln High so far. Painting was his favorite because, "it was very relaxing, going in during the middle of the day and painting for an hour."

Others took the class to prepare for their desired careers in the field of art. Junior Ross Peterson thought he would like a job in

the field beca us "there is a lot of free dom in an art caree and think its what would be best at."

A lot of student keep their projects once they are don with them and han them up. Others keep them only if they hav a use for them.

ith all the different Physical Education Classes at Lincoln High, it's hard to tell which

one to take. Many students opt to take Raquet Sports or Toning and Fitness because it's spmething different

from the 'normal' Physical Education classes.

Although swimming has been a sport at Lincoln High since the 1920s, it has seen many changes. Lincoln High has had three pools, the third one added just this year. The pool is used for lifeguard training another variation in

available classes for Physical Education credits. Although a lot of students would not like to take Physical Education classes if they were required to swim, junior Malissa Watso n said that she woukf take it because "it would be cool to dunk people."

On the other end of these required courses are health classes. They are a graduation requirement, although many students may waive that by taking and passing ·a health waiver test. Junior Scott Breckner thought health class could .. pe made more interesting by "taking some field trips".

meals to learn about proper eating habits and to learn about the safety precautions that comes with preparing a meal. In domestic, which was an expansion to cooking, the students went grocery shopping, they learned laundry skills , and their behavior affects them in the community.

With Lincoln Higb being a~ accepting school,special education studentsfeel comfortable intermixing with their peers. "I think its good that Lincoln High is an accepting school. Since I've b~en here in 1981 t I've seen a gradual attitude change," said teacher Jim Lafollette.

Time and Dedication Paid Off for Team

The girls volleyball teams had a great season. The varsity team finished with 9 -16, the junior varsity finished with a score of 6-16. One of the varsity's biggest accomplishments were that they defeated Grand Island, a very hard team to play against.

Dedication was a

huge factor for the teams. Many of the girls said that they needed the will power and love to play. Time and commitment was another big factor. The time, commitment , dedication, and the love for the sport all paid off in the end. Varsity placed 5th at the Greater Nebraska Con£erence Finish.

Through frustration and disappointment players gave it 100%

Unity and commitment dominated the varsity season. Altthough most of the players thought the season was frustrating and disappointing, personal accomplishments and dedication were great. Senior Nathan Gieck felt, "I did the best job I could, and I felt I had a good season. I always gave the team 100%." He also

thought, "The team did everything it could, but we as a team, needed to be more mentally and physically stronger." One game t ha t stood out was the homecoming game in which we held East scoreless, 3-0 after a field goal from Senior Joseph Hoffman. Senior Aaron Gomez felt this was the highpoint of the season for the team.

Not only did they practice there but they hosted many meets including the Heartland Conference Meet. (The last time Lincoln High

hosted a meet was over ten years ago.)

Ryan Luedtke, the only senior on the boys team, said, "My biggest accomplishment was making state in an individual event." Whether it was making state or just getting the best time, all the hard work paid off in the end.

Coach Richard Conradt and Coach Aulbreg try to figure out the workout for the swimmers.

our Day To Shine

ByPiaMcWilliams

You finally had the feeling of being on top. It was your final year of high school. You made it through your sophomore year, worrying about finding your classes and meeting your teachers. You made it through your junior year, hoping that you didn't get the teachers you already had.

Then you reached your senior year and the only things you had to worry about were your ACT' sand SAT' s, prom, graduation announcements, cap and gown, senior pictures and senior bio' s. Your time had come, the day was here and this is what you had been waiting for since you first walked through the doors of Lincoln High.

"The day I finally realized it's not good to lock your keys in your car'' -Melinda Payne

"Finding a legal parking spot in senior lot."

... Moving On, and Moving Up

ByNicoleNevels

With numbers around 700, these works in progress enjoyed their step up from being so lovingly called 'scruffmores' by their older classmates. One new found freedom juniors experienced was being able to eat at the local food joints, without having to dodge the 'redcoats' or campus supervisors.

Juniors traditionally had more responsibility as they moved up in the high school chain. Many had to

take more challenging classes than before in order to stay on track for graduation.

In a class so full of diversity, it is iJ?1possible to categorize them all. There were students of all races, religious backgrounds, economic and academic status. But when they came together they were able to set their differences aside, and seemed stronger because of it.

LHS Staff

Changes for teachers:

Funds were scarce for teacher ' s salaries in 1875; the salary was reduced to $75 for the year. State retirement was established in 1945; social security membership was made available in 1955 The tradition of the Lincoln High School staff certainly is a work in progress.

Chad,

It seems as though you were just born yesterday, but all at once you have turned into a wonderful young man. We are all so proud of you and love you very much! This poem is yet another piece of advice that we have for you.

It's Beyond That You Must See

The football game is very close. The score is tied at three. The final pass is in the air. What will the outcome be?

Whether on the field or on the bench, Or sitting in the stands. Whether as a coach or water boy, Or marching with the bands.

It is you, dear Chad, and only you Who determines what shall be . For this game is but one score in life. It's beyond that you must see.

Lots of Love, Dad, Mom & Stephanie
