Thursday, November 9, 1967, marked a major break-through in the space program of the United States and the world. On that date, from Cape Kennedy, Florida, America's majestic Saturn V super-rocket hurled an unmanned Apollo moon ship into space to prepare for U.S. astronauts landing on the moon.

Its maiden journey and its safe return to a robot-manned Apollo capsule at lunar mission speed, surpassed all previous scientific achievements and accomplishments.

With this flight came the realization that man could now reach out from the earth toward goals heretofore believed unobtainable.

Planets so distant they could not even be seen with the most powerful telescope now became a reality and a challenge to the learned of the world. A knowledge beyond anything yet conceived began to unfold before the eyes of an awed audience.

The students of Lincoln Northeast also expanded their horizons during the year. Ideas and goals they had never dreamed of now came within the range of their comprehension and their imagination. They realized that vast untapped areas of knowledge wait to be discovered. The arts, the sciences, the vocations, became their outer space target, and as the year unfolded, each Northeast Rocket developed his own individual flight plan-A Flight Plan of Launching, Exploring, Discovering.

Northeast Rockets spread their sphere of influence Students at Lincoln Northeast were not content to confine their interest and activities to the classroom. Instead, they explored the challenges presented by their community and their nation. In doing so, they found innumerable opportunities to serve as capable and responsible citizens.

With the approach of a presidential election, students took a renewed interest in government and politics; County Government Day enabled Juniors to observe local government and officials in action.

to their community, to their state, and to their nation Several Rockets served as correspondents to community newspapers and kept readers informed about happenings at LNHS, while others participated in radio programs including the Voice of the Young Citizen.

Countless students donated innumerable hours to various community drives and projects. Candy Stripers served as aides at local hospitals, volunteer helpers gave of their time and talents at nurseries, children's homes, and care homes. Red Cross, Easter Seals, "Y" programs were areas of service.

reflected the fabulous fads and fine fashions of '68 Northeast students, ever fashion conscious, were in the swing of things this year, rockin' out in the fads and fancies of '68.

Eyes were looking from head to toes.

Many girls purchased falls and some had whole wigs, thus coming to school one day with a short bob, the next with shoulder .. long locks.

Hardware and psychedelic stripes were new on dresses. · Hopsacking was big. with girls' dresses and boys' trousers, plain or plaid. As colder weather came girls stuck with the ever faithful co-ordinates and kilts, but adding to the look of '68 were culottes, pant skirts, and fisherman knit sweaters. Travelling outside, warmth was found in fur hats, which came in a variety of colors and styles.

In the line of boys clothes, short sleeved sweaters and cable knits were worn. For dressier occasions, many boys wore the new plaid sports coats. Instead of exciting new cars, some boys looked back in the past, consequently the parking lot hosted a variety of old timers along with the newer cars. For both back-to-school and social hours, square toes were a must in shoes. Girls also chose pilgrim shoes, and boys desert boots and wing tips, with the standard loafers.

Whether standing in line to see "To Sir With Love" or "Bonnie and Clyde," dancing such favorites as the bugaloo, skate, or the philly, or just attending classes, LN students kept up with the fashions of '68 and proclaimed the year one that would be longremembered.

Students learned that loyal Rocket parents stood by,

12

ready to offer assistance in their numerous activities Throughout the years of high school, LN students realized that parents were many times the best friends a teenager could have.

Whether bringing a forgotten article from home, or looking proud at honors convocation, or cheering throughout countless games, parents were always to be counted on.

A party couldn't be successfully organized without parents' help, and before drivers licenses, parents were ever faithful in providing rides. License.s were followed by arguments about "who gets the car?" Amazingly, students nearly always won, but then there was always the familiar warning, "Now remember, be careful."

Having an active son or daughter meant extra duties for parents. It might be delivering gear-everything from pompons to sweat socks-or heating up dinner for their late arriver. All this teamwork added up to a year that, though sometimes hectic, proved. both rewarding and memorable for everyone.

Family worship remains a vital part of American life

Lincoln Northeast students, like millions of Americans, increasingly realized the value of moral and spiritual growth. Nurtured in an atmosphere of regular family worship, our religious heritage gained greater importance as we worshipped and took an active part in the churches of our choice.

American families , like the John Hiza family, included church attendance as an integral part of family life. Through the church and family, we accepted new responsibilities and met new challenges in anticipation of the time when, as adults, we would accept even greater responsibilities in society.

15

Success of a flight begins with thorough and comprehensive study and research. Diligent scientists, persistent program directors, and skilled specialists draw their blueprints with care. They construct their capsule with precision and they train their crew with exactness.

Northeast administrators and faculty perform a similar function. Tirelessly they alert students to new areas of · knowledge and to vast expanses waiting to be charted.

Northeast High School became a testing station for programmed math, climatariums, project English, music by Angelini - each of these opened new frontiers and widened the horizons of Northeast Rockets. Gradually these students developed into conscientious crew members - some to build, some to perfect, some to man the craft. This is the major portion of a Rocket's Flight Plan ... Launch .. ing, Exploring, Discovering.

ACADEMICS

Mr. Prosch, two Board Members new to City schools Mr. John Frasch accepted the position as the seventeenth superintendent of the Lincoln Public Schools, replacing Dr. Steven N. Watkins, who resigned effective December, 1967, after having served for seventeen years.

Mr. Taylor, assistants keep LNHS operating smoothly Keeping Northeast running smoothly is a 24-hour job. Northeast's administrative staff does this with efficiency. Even during a surprise fire , Friday, November 17, Mr. Taylor kept things running at an even pace, erasing any noticeable confusion.

Mr. Dietrich, vice-principal, helps Mr. Taylor out by handling student problems concerning conduct and discipline, and school policies in the administrative area. He is also in charge of organizing school assemblies.

Mr. Moore, the assistant principal in the area of instruction, takes care of teaching assignments and works with class schedules.

Mr. Dietrich, vice principal keeps his office door open to everyone and often is seen conversing with students about their classes.

Mr. Colerick returned this year to Northeast, joining the administration staff as assistant principal in the area of student service.

He is also director of guidance and is involved with student counselling and accounting.

Mr. Colerick, back to Northeast this year, is busy at his desk, glad to be in the swing of things again.

Principal, Mr. Taylor proudly opens the door of his school, ready to commence a new day.

Assistant Principal Mr. Moore confers with substitute teacher, Mrs. Woodward, concerning her mathematics schedule at Northeast.

Office help perform necessary day-by-day activities Efficiency of the office personnel creates a business-like atmosphere at Northeast and keeps the school running smoothly throughout the year. Typical of this professionalism are Mrs. Hubka, secretary to Mr. Taylor, and Mrs. Rutherford, the school receptionist.

Mrs. Collister and Mrs. Scheffert work with daily attendance and registration in the area of student services and Mrs. Limbeck is in charge of student records and all the office machines. Mrs. Witt, the school nurse, also keeps health records on all students during their three years attendance at Northeast.

Mrs. Kahm is new to Northeast this year.

She is in charge of the Neighborhood Youth Corps. Keeping financial records and supplying materials are the duties of Mrs. Pavey.

The position of secretary to Mr. Taylor would keep anyone busy, hut Mrs. Hubka discharges her duties with efficiency.

Counting receipts at the end of the school day is one of the tasks assigned to Mrs. Pavey, the bookroom clerk.

Mrs. Witt, the school nurse, is ready for a day of updating students' health records and meeting all their health needs.

Mrs. Kahm, NYC director at LN checks her records.

Mrs. Limbeck, Mrs. Scheffert, Mrs. Collister, and Mrs. Rutherford take time from work to admire a painting which was displayed in the office.

New staff updated and expanded Northeast's library The Northeast library had an all new look this year with the addition of Mrs. Edythe Cascini as librarian, Mr. Richard Larson as director of the Instructional Media Center, and Mrs. Ruth Stacey, I.M.C. clerk.

In addition to the regular daily services of circulating books, providing research materials, and supplying audio-visual aids, the staff became .involved in several " updating" projects. Mrs. Sturgeon spent many hours revising and enlarging the vertical file. Magazines were supplied to enlarge the collection, which now includes most of the issues published in the past five years. Complete inventory was taken and many of the volumes that had disappeared over the years were replaced.

The book collection was enlarged and the card catalogue brought up to date.

All this was accomplished in preparation for the proposed new Instrudional Media Center while its beginnings took shape in the form of recordings, film strips, and "personal" film projectors already in the library.

Mr. Larson and Larry Lorenson set up the video-tape machine to tape a TV program for classroom viewing.

Keeping back issues of magazines in order is a big job for library clerk Ruth Stacey and Kathy Sipp.

New material introduced in Nebraska Curriculum, Teachers in the English department began this year to inject much of the materials of new English curricula into their classes.

As the Lincoln Public Schools began to adopt the Nebraska Curriculum, Northeast teachers introduced more and more of this new material. The Nebraska Curriculum is an integrated program based on literature and composition.

Jan Adams B.S ., Nebras ka: English ; R ocke ttes

Lucy Comstock B .S ., Nebras ka; English

Penny Haws B .S. , N ebraska ; E nglish ; R ese rve P ep Club

Terms such as multilevel sentences, sentence patterns, noun markers and determiners became part of students' vocabulary. Like-

Marlys Hughes B .S ., K earney State; N ebras ka · Iowa· Colorado· E nglis h ; Publi~a tions '

Jean Kent B.S ., Nebras ka; University of Northe rn Iowa ; E nglish ; Reserve Pep Club

English and literature classes are made easier and more interesting through the use of bulletin-board displays and group discussions. Mr. Lacher and Mrs. Haws show this in their sophomore and junior classes throughout the day.

22

students find wider study challenging and enlightening wise, such expressions as genre, syntax, rhetoric, analogy and phonology found their way into students' thinking and writing.

Oral and written composition moved closer to the literature units and much creative writing and speaking was based on concepts students had gained. Literary selections were analyzed in depth in an attempt to understand the central concept of the work. Paperbacks often replaced the standard text.

Speech - Drama groups welcomed new colleague "Practice makes perfect" became the motto of the speech and drama department this year as students spent long hours preparing for the many activities offered.

Speech students again "took to the air" with their Voice of the Young Citizen radio program. Two of the topics discussed were, "Are Teachers' Strikes Justified?" and "How Does Air and Water Pollution Affect U. S.?"

Mr. Putman joined the department this year and directed both all-school plays.

Gary Carper and Bonnie Irick rehearse their cutting from "The Glass Menagerie" for the Creighton meet.

Foreign language methods altered; new club formed Northeast offers French, German, Latin, and Spanish in the foreign language department. Students learn these languages by the ALM system. Records are taken home to listen to dialogues in foreign language.

Another important item that contributed to the study of a foreign language was the language lab. With individual booths and earphones, students could speak and hear themselves, and the teacher could speak to each student privately.

Through the Latin classes this year a new club was formed. The new club was spomored

by Mrs. Krause. Any student could join: Latin was not a prerequisite. The purpose of the club was to study the life of the Romans.

Mrs. Sturgeon looks over the language lab to make sure students are speaking French into their mikes.

Students who have artistic talent found many different classes of art offered at Northeast representing various art fields.

Drawing and painting class is just what it implies, and students have their choice.

Commercial art teaches students art in connection with the commercial art profession.

Art appreciation class talks about the beginning of art and the standards of today. General art is the introduction to many art media.

Elementary design is the study of line, color, form and texture of art and many different materials are used. Home planning and design applies to housing, furniture, house plans and accessories for a home.

Mr. Rush likes what he sees of Harold Hill's painting.

Also using his artistic talent is LaVerne Griepenstroh.

Northeast's ever-expanding program emphasized the enjoyment of art as well as its vocational or pastime possibilities.

Artistic students discover a wide variety of classes

Mr. Angelini, composer in residence, directs Northeast music students in their individual interpretations of one of his original numbers.

Traditional music symbols such as notes, clefs, and staffs are replaced by these characters in Mr. Angelini's original compositions.

New teacher, composer help develop musical skills LN's music department felt the influence of two new additions this year. Mrs. Singler joined Mrs. Snook in the vocal music department while Mr. Schultz continued with the instrumental department.

Triple Trio, Boys Octet, orchestra, choir, band and the other musical groups were kept busy this year with Vespers, the Christmas program, and the operetta, in addition to various other programs.

All music classes in the Lincoln Public Schools had the advantage of a composer in residence this year. Mr. Louis Angelini, sponsored by the Ford Foundation, spent the year

Duane Schulz B. A., M.A. , Nebraska ; Wayne State; Northeas tern Univer s ity ; Stage band; Rocket Revue ; Instrumental music

in Lincoln composing especially for the public schools and working directly with students.

Playing or singing Mr. Angelini's contemporary music was a unique experience.

The traditional staffs, key and time signatures, notes, and clefs were disposed with in favor of a graph. Graphs are broken into segments containing the symbols to be sounded. Each symbol has meaning but time and pitch are dependent upon spacing and the musician's interpretation. The resulting sound depends upon the various interpretations and the conductor's directions. From this random playing may develop very beautiful and certainly creative music, which is one of the purposes of Mr. Angelini's compositions.

Large social studies department added new classes Two new classes were offered in the social studies field t his year, making this Northeast's largest department. These were philosophy and United States government.

Economic classes proved exciting for seniors who learned how to read stock markets.

Mr. Leatherman's class bought $10,000 worth of stock, although imaginary, and kept a watchful eye on it. Mr. Hiza's classes, however, were more realistic. They bought four shares of Walter Kidde Company at $59.75 When it reached a peak of $81.25 near the close of first semester, they sold and each received a small profit.

Philosophy class, led by Mr. Leatherman, was an experience. Students studied and discussed philosophies from the time of Plato.

Mr. Willemsen shows student teacher Mr. Klippert discussion plans for the day in modern problems.

New climatarium sparked added interest in research Science classes are prerequisites for graduation a t LN, and Northeast offers an interesting choice. Some of the classes are biology, chemistry, physiology, and advanced physics.

Biology students take part in labs, observing organisms under the microscope. The students in chemistry experimented with substance, physiology students studied the human body, and physics students probed the nature of matter and energy and laws governing them.

There was excitement in biology classes this year caused by the new climatarium. This is a glass-enclosed structure which duplicates weather conditions of all climatic zones.

Making sure all parts are in the proper places, Mike Thiellen looks over the human torso model in physiology class.

Northeast students prepared for the business world Students who plan business careers at Northeast take business education courses.

Students may choose between the clerical and the stenographic curricula.

The clerical curriculum includes typing, bookkeeping, clerical training, and salesmanship. Shorthand, office practice training, typing and bookkeeping are courses in the stenographic curriculum.

Modern equipment in the business education department added to the training.

Programmed math marks modern math department In the mathematics department this year a new class called Programmed Ma th was offered to students during the 8:00 o'clock period. The class covered all levels of math. Students were given books with the answers, but the student had to discover how to solve the problems. In this way they were able to work at their own rate and could finish a semester of math in fewer weeks. Mr. Wohlers proved most helpful when solving the problems became really t ough and troublesome.

From general math to advanced trigonometry, Lincoln Northeast's math department has understanding and capable teachers, always willing to help students comprehend the ever-changing and complicated processes.

Each year new methods are used to enrich the student's knowledge. This year a series of films were viewed by senior math classes as one of these projects.

Carol Anderson contemplates a solution for a problem in her programmed math book with the help of Mr. Wohlers.

Vocational classes prepa~e LN boys for occupations Industrial arts or vocational classes, called such because they prepare students for these occupations, include drafting, engine mechanics and electronics. Although known more as a boy's field, girls may also enroll in the courses. Typical of the projects undertaken was the building of television and radio sets in Mr. Boiler's electronics class.

This year classes experienced a bit of added excitement when a fire broke out in the auto mechanics shop early Friday morning, November 17. Firemen had it under control quickly, and classes resumed as scheduled in spite of charred and scorched equipment.

Courses include home planning and design, sewing, cooking, and family living. Girls learn about married life, from the engagement to planning a budget and learning household hints. They become "Miss Fix-it" by refinishing an old piece of furniture. or learn to be thrifty by making items such as curtains for the home.

In cooking classes girls learn to prepare good and nutritious meals while staying within a budget. Sewing classes received new sewing machines early this year.

New cafeteria at LN in planning stages for '68-'69 When it's lunchtime at Northeast students dash to the cafeteria in hopes of getting there before "the line." If a student does have the bad luck of reaching the lunchroom too late, he may find he doesn't have much time to eat. This is due to the large population of Northeast, which results in an overpopulated cafeteria.

Plans for a cafeteria addition were discussed early this year and approved by the Lincoln Board of Education. Completion of the new cafeteria may not be until 1969-70.

"Chicken today!" Mrs. Schafer and her helpers replenish the serving area for starving Rockets.

"That way, Steve!" Mr. Nagele directs Steve Schwaninger in the busy traffic.

Hungry students eat in the cafeteria. "Oops, 'scuse my elbow."

The cafeteria ladies are always kept busy from 11 :30 to 1:15, dishing out good food for hungry students.

SENIORS

Senior year is busy fun, responsibility, serious thoughts, an abundance of memoriesa last fling of high school life.

Seniors had their traditions to uphold and they did it with great enthusiasm. They held their senior parties, Rockettes put on the annual Turnabout dance and skit, spirit week was a big success, and the bridges in town got a good painting during tournaments.

Seniors agreed that taking state was the most exciting moment of the year.

Both semesters were full of college planning for seniors. Taking regents and college board tests, applying for hopeful scholarships, deciding on a college, and making the application were all part of the seniors' plans.

Senior year is that last and special year that brings excitement and sometimes disappointments. Taking part in school-sponsored clubs, Rocket Revue, and plays or operetta, seniors filled their last year with special memories. Graduation came suddenly, name cards were exchanged. There were wistful talks of next year and promises to keep in touch.

The final moment came when seniors walked down the aisle for the last time and realized this was the real thing. They were graduates of Lincoln Northeast, young adults ready to . face the challenges of tomorrow.

The Class of 1968 started their final year with high After two years of waiting, working, and watching those ahead, the class of 1968 suddenly found themselves in the spotlight. For · some their senior year was satisfying; though difficult, and busy. For others it was full of plans and anticipation. Whatever the attitude, the year was a critical point in many lives. The question "Where will I be next year at this time?" was no longer a vague reference to the distant future but a reminder of all the plans to be made, graduation orders to place, job or college applications to be finished before graduation.

First semester senior class officers Phil Hood, Jeff Munford, Brian Heacock, and Brenda Vifquain seek inspiration for a senior gift while admiring the new trophy case given to the school by the class of '67.

Seniors did not allow all their planning for the future to eclipse present plans. Taking active part in school organizations, throwing a senior party, and for some, holding down a part-time job meant more satisfaction and just plain fun than ever. Senior class members discovered that philosophy discussions are stimulating but so is yelling your loudest at a rousing basketball game.

goals and ambitious plans As second semester progressed, LN's Class of '68 again showed themselves to be active leaders in school life. Seniors were largely responsible for starting three active new clubs, Latin Club, Quill and Scroll, and the Fellowship of Christian athletes.

Seniors gave their enthusiastic support to Northeast's athletic teams and helped make Spirit Week a great success. Comments from the faculty that it was the best one Northeast has ever seen made them glow with pride. Going to state in basketball was very special to seniors who realized it was their last year to participate in the always exciting activities of cheering for their team and yelling, "We're from Northeast, couldn't be prouder ... " As the year came to an end, seniors looked eagerly toward graduation night, yet each one shared mixed emotions of joy and regret as the big night approached.

Paul Witherby, Steve Laughlin, Nancy Craft, and Mary James as second semester senior officers took seriously the words "Rocket Spirit of '68."

Seniors found themselves taking a variety of tests Most students, having attended school for years, become used to taking tests. But in high school: especially the senior year, tests become more frequent and more important in planning for all that lies ahead.

Among those tests given this year were the University of Nebraska Regents Examination, the College Entrance Examination Boards, which includes the Scholastic Aptitude Test or SAT, and ACT or American College Testing program.

Juniors were eligible to take the National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test and se:qior girls took the Betty Crocker Homemaker of Tomorrow test. There were also tests given only to boys in relation to military training.

The General Aptitude Test Battery challenged the many students who took it. This test helps the Employment Service to determine one's aptitudes.

Many Northeast students took several of these tests and the results were enlightening and, for the lucky ones, profitable.

Final year is "commencement" - - beginning again In May came graduation for the class of 1968. They were not the largest class in the history of Lincoln Northeast, but they were certainly one of the proudest. Few schools can match the record of championships these seniors helped their school win.

And after graduation-for some there were jobs, for some marriage and starting to raise a family, for some an obligation of military service, for some several more years of education. Seniors experienced their graduation with mixed emotions, looking back on three special years with fondness, looking forward with anticipation.

Steve Laughlin and Janice Bartlett admire the caps and gowns as they look forward to graduation.

Gredon Turner offers some advice about LN to Steve Slusher, a new member of the senior class.

Exchange students learned about the American way The exchange of ideas and beliefs, a basic understanding of other peoples, and relations with other nations are a vital concern of every one today and issue a challenge to the adnlts of tomorrow. Northeast students helped to meet this challenge by hosting three foreign exchange students for the school year.

Oscar Bracamonte of Cordoba, Argentina, and Christine Dabat of Marseilles, France, became Rockets under the sponsorship of the American Field Service. This program, supported at Northeast by the International Club, brings thousands of students to the United States every year to live in American homes, attend American high schools, and learn about the United States through personal experience.

Students from the United States also have the opportunity to go abroad under a division of the American Field Service.

Exchange students, Cornelia Soell, Oscar Bracamonte, and Kris Dabat became active members of International Club as they help decorate with souvenirs from home.

The Sheaff family with John, Mr. and Mrs. Sheaff, Oscar, and Joleen enjoy looking at Oscar's many souvenirs.

of life first hand, as they ioined LN's student body Kris stayed with the D r. J ohn Lux family whose daughter Linda was also a senior at Northeast. Oscar gained "brother" John and a sister, Jolene, during his stay with the Roy Sheaff family. The boys were both seniors.

Students were also privileged to have Cornelia Soell from Bensheim, Germany as a member of the student body in 1968. Cornelia, a junior, stayed with Mr. and Mrs. Walter Erbach by private arrangement so she could attend school in the United States.

Cornelia, Kris, and Oscar were invited to speak to many groups in the city about their native countries. They also presented an AFS program at an all-school assembly and were active members of International Club. French, German, and Spanish language students benefitted by being exposed to native speakers of each of the three languages taught in Northeast's language department.

Handmade Christmas decorations fill the Erbach home, thanks to Cornelia Soell's artistic talent.

Kris and Linda join the rest of the Lux family for a relaxing evening around the television.

Seniors honored for academic, leadership abilities A profusion of honors was earned by the Seniors of 1968. At the close of the Junior year, Brian Heacock made history by becoming the first Northeast representative ever to be elected Governor of Boys State.

Pat Corning was named local Betty Crocker Homemaker of Tomorrow, and was one of ten state finalists in this competition.

Brian added more honors when he and Nancy Armstrong were chosen as recipients of the Lincoln Sertoma Youth Leadership Awards. Bill Slaughter was named winner of the $100 KFOR Sportscaster scholarship, and Mary Maupin won the vocal division scholarship presented annually by the Nebraska Federation of Women's Clubs.

Practically all the Elks awards came to Lincoln Northeast when Brian Heacock won the Youth Leadership Contest on the local and state levels. Susan Streitwiesser and Herb Thomas placed first and second in the Elks Most Valuable Student competition.

Bob Riblett became both the city and the district winner in the Voice of Democracy contest. Bob spoke on the theme for this year -Freedom's Challenge.

Four Northeast seniors chosen by National Merit In September, 1967, four Northeast seniors were notified that they were National Merit Semi-finalists. They were Tim Busing, Terry Deeds, Carol Payne, and Joe Sylvester.

Former Northeast student Steve Kunkee was also named a semi-finalist. The nation-wide competition for scholarships is based on the results of the National Merit Scholarship Qualifying test taken in the junior year and the SAT test taken in the senior year. Approximately one-fifth of those who become semi-finalists receive National Merit Scholarships which are worth up to $1500 a year.

Tim Busing

Terry Deeds

Carol Payne

Dennis Sylvester

Pat Corning, Jack Hinman, Ronnie Sue Looker, Michael McManus, Vicki Schmidt, Herb Thomas, and Ed Woerner all received National Merit Letters of Commendation.

Representative Robert V. Denney named Northeast student Gerry Mitchell for an appointment to the U. S. Military Academy at West Point and Bill Dermann as an alternate.

Nominations were based on Civil Service examinations, academic records, and extra-curricular activities. Stringent physical requirements also had to be met.

University of Nebraska Regents Scholarships were awarded to Tim Busing, Terry Deeds, Gerry Mitchell, and Ed Woerner for their performances on the Regents Examination given to the upper third of the class. Winners received four-year scholarships with alternates having a chance for those not used by the winners. Twenty-six Northeast students were named Regents alternates.

Regents Winners: Tim Busing, Ed Woerner, Terry Deeds, and Gerry Mitchell.

Bill Dermann and Gerry Mitchell look forward to military careers, as Bill was chosen as an alternate to West Point and Gerry received a West Point Academy nomination.

One of the highest honors which can be achieved by seniors at Lincoln Northeast is membership in National Honor Society. Each year students from the top fifteen per cent of their class become eligible for membership.

The Society, which was founded in 1921, is national in scope and is one of the best known honorary high school organizations. Its general purpose is to recognize and encourage scholastic achievement plus service to the school and to the student body. Students selected must demonstrate outstanaing scholarship and must also represent outstanding character, leadership, and service.

•

Students chosen for membership are tapped at the annual spring honors assembly.

Members are entitled to wear the NHS pin which bears the emblem of the flaming torch . of knowledge surrounded by letters signifying the four criteria of membership-character, leadership, service and scholarship.

The aim of the organization is to "bear forward the searching light of truth to lead that others may follow in the light to keep burning in this school a high ambition for enduring values." Students honored by membership are challenged to uphold this standard even after leaving Lincoln Northeast.

More responsibility and taking -part in school leadership and activities marked this year for Northeast's junior class. Students were elected as student council officers. Besides being members of student council, junior class officers were elected each semester, and they took part in planning for special activities such as homecoming.

The year was harder as courses became more advanced. Many juniors started thinking about college and -scholarships. PSAT and National Merit tests were taken by a majority of juniors. There were also national math and foreign language tests given to smaller groups.

Many juniors participated in Centennial Youth day, NASC, the Nebraska Association of Student Councils, and County Government day. These students broadened their outlook considerably on leadership and the workings of our state government.

Two juniors, Sam Knight and Laura Weber were chosen from several hopeful applicants as Northeast's finalists for the American Field Service, better known as AFS.

Classes, sports, studies, and growing Rocket spirit

Juniors had a foreign exchange student this year, though not through the usual AFS program. Cornelia Soell came to Lincoln from Bensheim Schoenberg, Germany, through American friends of her family.

Junior girls demonstrated their enthusiasm and support for Rocket teams by joining junior Pep Club. They had their own constitution and sponsors, and were an independent ~roup. This year they formed an L with white shakers, forming LN with the Rockettes at all home basketball games.

Junior girls also planned and gave the Candlelight Ball. All Northeast girls were invited. These girls then asked dates to it.

Junior boys were well-known on reserve and varsity teams for Northeast sports. They also participated in intramural programs.

Leading the reserve basketball team were eight junior girls, serving as reserve cheerleaders. These girls practiced long hours for this honor. They were selected by the junior class and hope to become varsity cheerleaders.

Another newcomer to Lincoln Northeast was Charles McClure who transferred mid-term from Perth, Australia.

Juniors prepared for their final year in many ways Toward the end of the year, juniors began to think seriously of their next year. They were impressed as the seniors talked about graduation and future plans.

Seriousness of the future seemed to reflect on the juniors as study halls were spent in real study and anxiety over ending semester tests with a total disregard for the traditional epidemic of spring fever.

As the junior year ended, thoughts turned

more and more to the fall. Boys looked forward to varsity sports, girls toward Rockette activities. All looked forward to the responsibility and activities ahead, and all were determined to fill their senior year with work, clubs, sports,-and memories.

Signing yearbooks, attending graduation, and the Junior-Senior Prom highlighted the end of the juniors' year. Each spring activity heightened the anticipation of the senior year.

Juniors anticipate their senior year by classes, clubs, sports and Rocket spirit. Each will he a part of their final year.

Sophomore·s launched into an atmosphere filled The first day of school was an excellent one for Northeast's 542 new sophomores. Alert faces looking for friendly signs of unknown students, anxious faces looking for a familiar face, and, "Who will I sit with at lunch?"

Sophomores have standard traits at Northeast. They sit on the east side of the gym at rallies and don't know the cheers and they're never loudest in "Victory, victory."

Girls notice a big change: taller boys.

More homework, study halls, three flights of stairs, and a freer atmosphere classified the newness "sophs" felt. They learned that there's more work involved in high school, but along with it more pleasurable activities, as sports, Hub Clubs, Keentimes, and Homecoming. They experienced the thrill of rooting Rocket teams toward victories and became loyal LN supporters.

"Once again a woman gives orders," say Jim Smith, secretary; Steve Westover, treasurer; and Russ Severn, vicepresident to Kathy Ketterer, president of the class of '70.

Most sophomores got their swimming, health and science reouirements out of the way their first year. Girls breathed a sigh of relief if they got swimming seventh period and both boys and girls experienced very different thoughts as they did dissections in science.

with new responsibilities; they adapted quickly Sophomores took their place in lead~rship in Student Council and for the first time at Northeast sophomores elected first semester class officers. They also took part in allschool elections, as for Homecoming Royalty.

They chose May Day attendants from their class, and were anxious for May Day assembly.

During the beginning weeks of school sophomores were urged to join the various clubs that Northeast offers. Many joined International, Science, Radio club, and Red Cross. Sports minded girls took part in GAA and were able to join Penguins by passing a test. Boys with athletic ability were members of sophomore football and basketball. These teams did well this year and show promise for the next two years. Some of these boys made reserve teams and a top honor was making the varsity team not only in football and basketball, but in swimming, wrestling and gymnastics as well. These boys now look forward to even bigger and better competition.

In music they tried out for State Music Clinic and at the end of the year tried out for choir and Triple Trio or boys Octet. Those who had dramatic hopes, tried out for plays.

"This is the way it should be," say Seniors Jim Harman and Susan Waldman to their lowly underclassmen.

Sophs' goals soar higher Hartshorn, Terry Hatfield, David

One of the big differences that separate the underclassmen from the upperclassmen is having a driver's license. One by one through the year sophomores faced the drivers test and got their licenses. Traditionally, this marks one of the most important events in a sophomore's exciting life.

A big thrill of having a license was that no longer would one have to sit in Kings, but could drive through! The first time of "bombing through Kings" is an experience to remember and an important day in history.

Getting to the hard life of high school, sophomores learned to plan their time in accordance with work and play. Many found that being on Northeast's honor roll, having semester grades of one's and two's, was a harder job than before.

forward to their second year at Lincoln Northeast Northeast hosts an ever-widening range of activities and courses. Each year sophomores find more classes and clubs to choose from. This year's sophomores quickly became part of the school.

In addition to coping with the new problems which high school brings and becoming loyal Rocket supporters, sophomores also took their places as responsible Lincoln Northeast students. Within a few weeks they had furnished leads for t he all-school play, talented musicians and members on the Honor Roll.

It takes money t o be a high school student, and this t he LN sophomores found out

fast. To be in the swing of things, students found money must be spent for dues, activity tickets and the yearbook which everyone must have, Keentime, Hub Club, Kings, and gas.

Boys felt the pinch in t he dating game, but were paid back when the Turnabout and the Candlelight came around.

As the year came to a close, sophomores looked back on their first high school year as one to be well remembered, but they were anxious for the junior year, ready for any new challenges it might offer. Girls looked forward to being in Junior Pep Club and boys started planning t heir t raining program to uphold Northeast t raditions.

In a space flight program, any crew is elated when the flight is successful due to their labor and responsibility. Northeast students assume this same responsibility when they take part in the many activities offered at Northeast.

Being a member of a vocal group, participating in a social service project, belonging to a local, national, or international organization-these add color and thrill to the flight. They are the diversions that supplement routine schedules.

Students experience satisfaction and elation as they, too, reach new heights: acting a role in a drama presentation, speaking to the world via airwaves, interviewing a person of note, attending a conference or cheering at a game.

Activities contribute elements of satisfaction and pride to the atmosphere surrounding the school. And they are all part of a Rocket's Flight Plan ... Launching, Exploring, Discovering the world outside Lincoln Northeast.

Student Council strives to promote spirit, leadership Lincoln Northeast's Student Council, under the direction of Mr. Taylor, met every Tuesday and Thursday noon, to plan all-school activities and to represent the student body in discussion concerning student problems.

Hub Club dances after football and basketball games, a movie co-sponsored with other Lincoln high schools, a rained-out car bash rally, and the l967 Homecoming, planned by Susan Waldman, were projects on first semester Student Council agenda.

In addition to the regular responsibilities, Student Council became more active in the school and community through their many undertakings. The eighteenth annual State Student Council Convention at McCook, Saturday, November 11, was attended by Mr. Taylor and sixteen members, who returned with many new ideas and goals.

"Now tell me Anna, is this how you do it in Sweden?,, AFS,er Oscar Bracamonte asks his Homecoming date.

as they discover success comes through cooperation Second semester council members had the opportunity of exchanging ideas with students from other Lincoln high schools when they participated in the annual Intra-City Student Council exchange day, held February 13.

Some members spent the day at one of the other high schools and the remaining members hosted representatives from the others.

First semester officers were President, Paul Witherby; Vice-President, Nancy Craft; Secretary, Cindy DeBoer; and Treasurer, Linda Gage. Second semester Janice Bates served as president, assisted by Brian Heacock as vice-president, Linda Gage as secretary and Pat Nielsen as treasurer.

Sweet-toothed Student Council made a hit with the installation of a candy machine. It pleased many of Northeast's candy-cravers after school.

Rockettes iourney to Grand Island and Fremont, and There is nothing like being a Rockette member: pre-game dinners, decorating the car, hurrying to get to a game before demerit time, worrying about demerits, meeting squad assignments, are part of being a Rockette.

Second term officers Peg McKinney-Vice-President, Carolyn Staples-Secretary, Debbie Dana-Treasurer, Suzan Maus-President meet with Miss Holmquist, Rockette sponsor, to plan the migration to Fremont.

Senior girls make up the large group of Rockettes. A constitution test, taken in the spring of their junior year, determines membership. Before school starts hats and emblems are bought. There's nothing like wearing them for the first rally and knowing you're truly a senior! Divided into squads, girls must attend squad assignments, which include making signs or attending sports meets, plus home football and basketball games.

Rockettes open basketball season, helping initiate East High gym, as team whips Kearney 56-26.

sponsor "The Happening" One of the biggest events Rockettes sponsor is the annual Turnabout dance and crowning the King of Hearts and Attendants.

This year the theme of the Turnabout was The Happening. The king was AFS student, Oscar Bracamonte; attendants were Jeff Munford and Tom Miner.

Another activity everyone looks forward to is the migration trip. This year trips were made to Grand Island and Fremont.

A change this year in the constitution was the amendment making saddle shoes an official part of the Rockette uniform.

Pam Hoyt, Kathy Bauer, Karen Schulte, Janelle Dolsky, Barb Payne and Betty Frazier brought lots of food for migration to the Grand Island-Northeast football game.

The result of hard work and creative artistic ability were displayed at the annual Rockette-sponsored Turnabout Dance.

Reserve Pep Club initiated its new constitution an d One of the biggest events of a junior girl is wearing her Reserve P ep Club uniform for the first time at a game or rally and participating in cheers with the Rockettes.

Reserve Pep Club is made up of junior girls who wish to show their spirit and loyalty to the Rocket teams by part icipating as a group. They must earn this, just as Rockettes, by taking a test on the constitution, uniforms, officers and sponsors. They are also required to attend all home basketball games and get demerit s if they don't. If enough demerits accumulate, a girl may find herself dropped from the Reserve Pep Club.

Sponsors chosen this year were Mrs. Kent, head sponsor and Mrs. Haws as her assistant. First semester officers were Margaret Burkhardt, president ; Linda Gage, secretary; Mona Way, treasurer. Second semester officers in that order were Donna Upton, Cindy Fletcher, Nancy Wheatley, Jane Rumpeltes.

Emcees incorporated the imaginary "Stek-cor Studios" The annual Rocket Revue talent show was presented March 29 and 30. The theme was Stek-Cor (Rockets spelled backwards) Studios and was centered around the filming of movie scenes. Serving as the emcees were Vivian Hecht, Barb Moore, and Violeta Leja playing the part of lovable but nosey scrubwomen. Assisting them were producers Herb Thomas and Alan Grigsby.

Variety was the key word of the Revue.

Singing girls and a melodrama topped the senior girls' acts. The skit, "Melvin in Wonderland," composed of forty-five junior girls, a karate demonstration, bamboo pole dance, jazz dance, baton twirling routine, and the folk singers "Yesterday's Children" were all part of the 1968 Revue.

The W acisa Indian Dancers in their colorful feathers and headdresses performed a tribal dance, and Aldie Lewis demonstrated his famous Girl Creating Computer.

Junior girls, as hatters, flowers, and cards, gave an interpretation of "Melvin in Wonderland" in a musical skit.

"The Saga of Little Nell" was the heartbreaking melodrama dramatized by senior girls.

to serve Northeast for the '68 Rocket Revue theme Sophomore Bruce Prochaska "brought down the house" with his humorous monologue, while classmate Paul Mattern impressed the audience with his musical skill and his original piano composition. Also included in this year's program was a piano duet, a boygirl vocal duet, plus numbers by the boys' octet and the girls' Triple Trio.

A most outstanding finale directed by Mrs. Comstock featured unusual lighting and

stage effects. Black light plus fluorescent costumes created a remarkable effect as the girls presented the closing number.

As always, the Revue was a total-school effort. Over 180 students appeared in the acts, while dozens more assisted with staging, lighting, and publicity. The drama department supervised settings and scenery, and the entire production was under the direction and supervision of Mr. Duane Schulz.

"I Enjoy Being a Girl" seems to be the key phrase for these senior girls.

Trio and Octet shared their talent with all Lincoln Northeast hosted a large vocal music department this year, consisting of choir, boys chorus, girls glee, and senior chorus. The groups were instructed by Mrs. Snook and Mrs. Singler, a newcomer to LN this year.

All the music classes participated in the annual Christmas program December 19 as well as the city choral festival. Selected groups also appeared in the traditional vespers. Fourteen musicians repre.sented Northeast in the State Music Clinic held at Sidney.

Due to the large membership of 127 in choir, it was again this year divided into two periods, both directed by Mrs. Snook. Choir was active in all the school programs plus operetta, and this year it was Northeast's turn for senior members to sing at baccalaureate in addition to singing at their graduation and commencement.

Triple Trio this year was composed of eight seniors including the accompanist, and two juniors. These girls sang at meetings, banquets, and other civic groups.

Boys Octet looked sharp in blue blazers and shirts, and wing tips! They also sang at many group gatherings. They were directed by Mrs. Singler; Mrs. Snook led the Triple Trio.

Kris Bennett, Marcia Bell, Cheryle Orr, Barb Payne, Mary Jo Knight, Cindy Sipma, Lynn Gardner, Linda Fuller, Karen Hardt, Cindy DeBoer, Trio members, wore A line dresses.

Doug Emery, Richard Collins, Steve Peter, Steve Cholka, Lloyd Swartz, Jim Larson, Frank Bush, Neal Becker, and pianist Dave Dahl attired in blue hopsack blazers, constituted a strong Octet, under Mrs. Singler's direction.

Choir brings the Highlands of Scotland to life with Northeast choir presented "Brigadoon" as its annual operetta, April 26 and 27, under the direction of Mrs. Snook and student director, Peggy Van Horn.

It is a story of two Americans, Tommy and Jeff, who get lost in the Scottish highlands and find the enchanted village of Brigadoon. A miracle enables the village to appear only once every hundred years. There Tommy meets Fiona MacLaren and falls in love with her. Tommy cannot stay in Brigadoon unless he has no doubts or fears about his love for her. As the day draws to a close, Tommy realizes he must leave Fiona. But after he leaves, Tommy suddenly knows he must return to Brigadoon and Fiona.

Surrounded by hunters, Frank Bush and Paul Brown, from USA, is Scottish lass, Mary Jo Maupin.

Students spent long hours perfecting their Scottish "burr," and highland dancing.

By opening night they had become quite proficient at both. The boys became accustomed to kilts and bare knees and they really looked quite authentic in tams and berets. Choreography was by Mrs. Robert Brehm.

Kilts, plaids, and long dresses with ruffles and aprons were frequently seen as opening night approached.

Effort and cooperation key to successful '68 Rocket This year's Rocket staff, consisting of nine seniors and four juniors, faced many difficulties. Page editors discovered some backgrounds were too dark while others were too light. Copywriters found they had a limited vocabulary. The photographer who had served Northeast for many years became ill. But the staff solved all these problems by coming up with new ideas and helping each other.

The advertising staff played a big part in getting the Rocket published. In spite of snowy or rainy weather, or early morning hours, these seven girls could be seen down town selling ads and supervising ad shots.

They did a tremendous job in a most competitive field by surpassing the $2,000 goal which they had set for themselves.

Editor Brian Heacock consults with Mrs. Hughes about the copy for the division pages which are due the first deadline in December.

Room 110 was hectic during fifth period as the Rocket staff made layout sheets, wrote headlines, captions and copy, and tried to meet all deadlines. Under the calm supervision of Mrs. Marlys Hughes, the staff was able to "keep their cool"; difficulties and ca tastrophies were taken in stride, and when the final deadline had been met, the 1968 Northeast Rocket became a reality.

The Rocket staff examines a multitude of yearbooks from past years and from other schools to gain inspiration.

Being copywriters and faculty editors is no small job, but Carol Lindberg and Pat Corning still find time to smile.

The ad staff, Lois King, Jean Christenson, Denise Conway, Barb Benton, Marcilee Allen, Ann Hiza, and Margaret Mabin top their goal.

Activities editors, Marcia Morrison, Sue Petersen, and Susan Streitwieser prepare layouts and study their picture schedule.

Senior editors, Terry Deeds and Kathy Prell encounter as many problems with senior glossies as do sophomore and junior page editors Jeanne Bucy and Jo Borgens with mug shots.

Looks are deceiving, because the sports editors Gary Foster, Brian Heacock, Phil Hood, and Mike Holtgrewe are really hard workers.

Like true iournalists, Northeastern's ten staff members Putting out the Northeastern twice a month and keeping it accurate and timely was a task for this year's Northeastern staff of ten. This was accomplished by getting their assigned "beat" covered and by writing feature stories.

This year's sports column was Athletes' Feats. Editorials promoted school spirit and loyalty by proposing a school song, an allschool proje~t and a school mascot. New this year was Miller's ad, introducing a board member from a different school in each issue.

Many students found themselves being handed survey sheets and then being quoted in the next edition of the Northeastern. Topics ranged from a current song to political views on Vietnam, to 1968 Presidential preference.

While on the Northeastern staff, the members learned a new language. Beats, gutters, kickers, cropping, and layouts were a few new meanings. Keeping terms straight, getting stories covered and written, and putting the newspaper together became the responsibility of the Northeastern staff.

NORTHEASTERN editor, Marcilee Allen, con• templates cartoons for the next issue of the news.

Dr. Sloper, Catherine's father, sees through Townsend's motives and in his effort to protect her, causes a major conflict. Much pain is caused by Dr. Sloper's insistence- and Catherine's stubbornness before realizing Townsend's character. " The Heiress" was the first all-school play at Northeast to be directed by Mr. Putman.

After eight years, Quill and Scroll reorganized at LN Second semester, students interested in journalism re-activated the Quill and Scroll charter and the group quickly joined the ranks of Northeast's active clubs.

The organization, sponsored by Mrs. Hughes, visited KOLN-TV and toured Lincoln Y e.arbook and Arbor Printing to see the ROCKET and the NORTHEASTERN in the printing process. Among other activities, members heard a panel of speakers from the University of Nebraska School of Journalism.

During Spirit Week, the group sponsored the sale of Rocket booster stickers as a project.

Officers were Mary James, president; Lois King, vice-president; Jean Christenson, secretary; and Marcilee Allen, treasurer.

excellence in speech, drama, and original oratory Hard work, research, and time go into preparation of a debate. Debate is a specialized class where this is studied. Students better themselves in public speaking and study their topic working out arguments.

In debating a subject, there are affirmative and negative teams. Each member of the team must give two speeches presenting his argument and disproving t he opponent.

Northeast debaters did well, competing with other high schools in tournaments, traveling to Grand Island, Fremont, Omaha, Sioux City, Iowa, and overnight to Worthington, Minnesota. They came home with several trophies and medals.

Debaters arP ranked on their speaking ability, thereby earning points. When a debater earns a total of twenty-five points, he is eligible for membership in NFL, the National Forensic League, sponsored by Mr. Mueller.

Spirit--N Club's important ingredient for victories Activity was t he key word for the 1967-68 N Club. This group of va rsity lettermen made up t heir private cheering section at games and rallies to help t he pep clubs boost Rocket spirit. This attitude was appreciat ed by the student body, and st udents felt t hat it was a determining factor in many of the Rockets' successful vent ures t his year.

N Club, sponsored by Mr. Galloway, organized the 1968 All-Sports Banquet and chose the All-Sport s Queen. They also prepared a skit for the Lincoln High game rally.

Any craft, no matter how well constructed, has to be tested before it can be launched successfully. The field of athletics this year was Lincoln Northeast's testing program. It tested not only students' physical skills, but sportsmanlike pride in Rocket teams.

During this year the Rockets learned new techniques and new methods · under the direction of new coaches. From each encounter they brought home new knowledge to meet the next challenge and the next competitor.

"We're from Northeast, couldn't be prouder, can't hear us now so we'll yell a little louder!" Students cheered, expressing the pride they had in all the teams whether they were winning or losing.

Competition in athletics, as in interplanetary races between nations, proved the incentive that sparked greater effort. New knowledge, teamed with this incentive, became the key factor of the Rocket Flight Plan . .. Launching, Exploring, Discovering.

Boroff's Battlers find grid wars rugged in posting

Claire Boroff and Chuck Doepke plan strategy.

The 1967 football season at Lincoln Northeast saw a change in the coaching ranks of the school. Taking over as head coach for the Rockets was Claire Boroff, who had met with great success coaching Kearney High School.

Built around only four returning lettermen, the inexperienced Rockets faced six teams who claimed state ratings. The inexperience and difficulty in adjusting to "Boroff Ball" was evident throughout the tough schedule. The squad improved greatly as the season progressed, and Rocket fans lauded their desire and hustle in the face of a losing season.

Northeast, perennially a state football power, posted its first losing season in years, closing out the season with a 2-7 record. The Rockets averaged 11.3 points per game, but the opponents claimed a 22.6 point average.

Faced with a losing season, Boroff gave many of the younger players a "baptism under fire" - strategy which should return Northeast to state prominence on the gridiron in 1968.

Damkroger heads Rockets receiving All-City honors

Sophomore sparkler Maury Damkroger was the only Rocket to land a spot on the mythical All-City squad. Damkroger, a line-cracking fullback, proved himself a tough competitor and with continued improvement should be one of the all-time Rocket greats. Rating postseason salutes in the form of All-City honorable mention were backs Al Campbell and Dan Cook, guards Chuck Steuben and John Bulin, center Phil Hood, and end Paul Witherby.

With Damkroger, Cook, and Steuben returning, the outlook for the 1968 season should be a bright one as a host of talented underclassmen return to boost Northeast's football fortunes for the 1969 campaign.

The 1967 Reserve team found themselves saddled with a disappointing 3-4 season record. The record doesn't tell the whole story, however, as the squad lost all four games by a close margin, and often exhibited great potential and hustle in the gridiron sport.

Many of the Reserves were promoted to the varsity squad to fill vacant slots as the season progressed. This turnover of personnel was a handicap for the reserves, but the experience gained should pay off next season.

A tough Northeast defense stops a Knight offensive.

The Reserves fared well in city competition, gaining wins over Southeast, Pius X, and East High, while dropping a tough one to Lincoln High by two points. Northeast lost by one touchdown to both Hastings and Fremont~ and a nine point margin spelled the difference in the Grand Island game. The reserves displayed a powerful passing attack headed by signal caller Chuck Sinclair and hard-running backs Mike Holtgrewe and Bob Portsche.

Rocket fans hoped the Reserves could post a much better record, but nevertheless saluted their desire and drive. Many of this year's Reserves will undoubtedly play a big part in the football comeback planned for Northeast.

Sophomores blast 5 opponents, coast to 5-1 season The 1967 football season saw a Northeast tradition upheld for the sixth straight year.

The Sophomore Rockets capped another season with a sparkling 5-1 record, boosting Coach Hank Willemsen's combined record for the past six years to 26-4-1. Winning has become a trademark of the Sophomore squads, and this year's team stretched a glossy victory skein to 24 games before falling to the Beatrice Reserves. Sophomore mentors Hank Willemsen and Robert James rank among the area's most successful coaches, and a great deal of Northeast's gridiron glory can be traced to their efforts to prepare the sophomores for the high geared varsity squad.

The Sophomores' powerful football machine rolled over five opponents in convincing fashion, holding Southeast, Lincoln High, and Pius X scoreless. The Sophomores parlayed a potent offensive attack with a rugged defense to pave the way to a great season. Field general Tom Novak proved himself a capable passer, directing many of his air strikes to glue-fingered end Dave Stewart. Ball-toters Jack Hart and Jim Smith also provided scoring punch for the powerful sophomore squad.

Many of the Sophomores displayed a great

deal of potential and desire, and should be valuable additions to Rocket grid squads in their junior and senior years at Northeast.

state championship: finish season with 15-6 record

Lincoln Northeast again proved that they were the best team in the state by capturing their second consecutive championship.

Coach Johnson discusses strategy with Maury.

The Rockets advanced through district play by defeating East High and Pius X. Both games were close in the first half, but the streaking Rockets exploded in the second half.

Going to the state finals has become a habit with Northeast, the '68 trip marked the Rockets' fourth time in a row. The toumament was moved from Omaha to Lincoln to prevent possible disorders. In the first game, the Rockets faced a powerful Hastings team.

For more than three quarters the Rockets trailed before rallying to victory. The next foe was Omaha Tech, a short but very quick team. The Rockets surprised even the experts by winning handily. For the second year in a row Northeast encountered top seeded Omaha Central for the championship. The game was close with neither team gaining a big advantage. Clutch free-throwing at the end enabled the Rockets to claim the school's fifth basketball championship and the fourth under Coach Johnson.

Heading the list of honorees was Bill Slaughter, named to the all-city team. Bill's consistent play throughout the year was a key to the Rockets success. Lyle Hiatt's deadly shooting earned him a spot on the second team, while Junior Dan Cook and Sophomore Maury Damkroger were listed as honorable mention.

The pending state champions came up with a remarkable tournament performance to retain their title. Named to the all-tournament team for their exceptional play were Bill Slaughter and Maury Damkroger. The Rockets also had the Class A tournament scoring leaG.er in Lyle Hiatt. The young Northeast cagers failed to get anyone on the all-state team, but Seniors Bill Slaughter and Lyle Hiatt received honorable mention for their outstanding seasons in basketball.

Lincoln Northeast Reserves finished their eighth consecutive winning season under colorful Coach Leroy Seng. Despite losing once in overtime and once with no time left on the clock, the team of five sophomores and eight juniors finished the year at nine and seven.

Chuck Sinclair led the team in scoring with a 12.5 average followed by Sophomore Tom Maupin with nine per game.

Well-rounded desire and determination, however, were again the key to a fine season in which the Rockets out-scored their opponents 911 to 794. Coach Seng gave every member of his squad a chance to prove himself.

A surplus of talent among the underclassmen was used to advantage.

ways despite the inexperience of a rebuilding year The Lincoln Northeast gymnasts once again showed great skill in the art of gymnastics. Coach Bob Heffelfinger found his coaching debut to his liking as his youthful team responded with an eight and two regular season slate. Following the leadership of the relatively few returning lettermen, the talented underclassmen reacted well to varsity competition. As a result, many used the rebuilding year to gain experience.

In both the Trans-Nebraska and District meets, the Northeast gymnasts finished third behind Lincoln Southeast and Lincoln High.

Results of the District sent eleven men to state competition for the defending champs.

At the state meet held at Lincoln High, Northeast finished a respectable sixth in a wide field of Class A teams.

capable of meeting the upcoming competition in Rocket style. He met the task head on, however, as he put together the kind of team that would represent Lincoln Northeast well in the 1968 spring season.

Losing all but Bill Slaughter and Alan Campell from last year's varsity squad, Coach Seng went to work early. With over seventy boys out for the colorful sport, the always friendly and well liked Coach Seng picked a team of approximately fourteen men. Only four seniors made the varsity which consisted of seven juniors and three sophomores.

Joining catcher Alan Campbell, and first baseman Bill Slaughter as top prospects, were seniors, Lyle Hiatt, infielder, and Jim Shaw, outfielder. Juniors looking good in preseason were Dan Cook and Rich Hubka, infielders, Craig Tische, outfielder, and Jim Starita and Dick Cades, pitchers. Tom Novak, infielder, versatile Maury Damkroger, and outfielder Jim Smith were sophomores worthy of making the Northeast varsity in 1968.

Occasional cold weather and the lack of uniforms were among the problems encountered by Coach Seng before the season got under way in the spring.

'67 produces best cross country squad in s,x years Lincoln Northeast's cross country squad, led by city champion Ed Woerner, fared better than any Rocket cross country team since the 1961 contingent raced to the city championship, a feat not easily duplicated.

Northeast captured only one first place finish in a tough schedule, but Woerner was the individual winner in five of the eleven meets.

Hester's thin clads placed third in the TransNebraska Conference meet, sixth in the Nebraska Wesleyan Invitational, eighth in both the Kearney High School and Fremont High School Invitationals, and second in the city meet to complete their season.

Hester's harriers set a gruelling practice pace.

Letter winners included Seniors Ed Woerner and Tim Peterson, Junior Doug Emery, and Sophomores Francis Black Elk and Ricky Gochnour. Ed Woerner and Rick Gochnour were named to the All-City cross country team.

Pushing hard for top spots on the team were Juniors Chuck Sinclair and Gene Gould.

The year's first meet for the Rockets was the City Relays. The N orthe.ast Cindermen finished second to Lincoln High. Leading the Rockets was Ed Woerner, who captured the two-mile run. Northeast also took first in the two shuttle relay hurdle races.

Returning lettermen bolstered tennis team's hopes In preseason of his third campaign in coaching tennis at Lincoln Northeast, Coach Chuck Doepke expressed the great confidence and high hopes he held for his 1968 tennis team. With three lettermen returning, and a surplus of new talent, it appeared he had good reason for his expectations.

Returning Lettermen: R ex J ensen , D ave D ahl , a nd Jim Hoyt.

Senior Lettermen Jim Hoyt and Rex Jensen, and Junior Letterman, Dave Dahl, provided the core of a team abundant with depth.

Coach Doepke molded his younger talent around the three for an apparent all-around sound Lincoln Northeast squad. Among those making good showings in early workouts were Senior Dale Blackford and Juniors Conrad Woerner and Chuck Ye.arley. As a result, the future of tennis appeared extremely bright.

With Let termen J ohn Wright, Tom Kroeger, Roger Scharton, Neal Becker, Tim Fellers, Chuck Smith, and Bob Schultz returning, Coach Mueller had some difficulty in picking a top five for match play. Such an abundance of experience made the golf outlook appear very bright in the spring.

Lincoln Northeast opened its season by defeating Norfolk. Top finishers in t he 243244 win were Roger Scharton and Captain T om K roeger. The team hoped to continue such winning ways into state competition.

Rugged intramurals toughened Northeast students Intramurals again proved its value and popularity with the Northeast boys. Almost any student could find a sport to his liking.

The program offered a wide variety of activity ranging from basketball to table tennis.

Organizing, "reffing" and watching the elusive sports equipment kept Mr. Berka and Mr. Maly working hard. Together with their two fine assistants , Mr. Doepke and Mr. Els, they did a first-rate job making t he intramural program a big success.
