Northeast High 1973 Yearbook

Interaction between students

and teachers , open campus , individualized study and updated courses were some of the primary concerns of the academic staff this year.

The reactions to open campus were , on the most part , favorable . Jacque Knoell summed up her views by saying , " Going out to lunch makes the day seem so much shorter It also r eleases some innerschool tensions. ''

Sen i or Karen Berka proved to be another open campus advocate as she remarked , " On the whole , it ' s a good i dea and most of the kids are mature enough to accept the responsibilities. "

However , along with the good came the bad as litter and inconsistent lunchroom crowds plagued Northeast.

" The adjustments are not too hard The real size determining factor for the crowds in the lunchroom is the weather ," commented Mrs. Blanche Schafer , lunch administrator.

Concern from the administration accompanied the accumulation of litter . " I want the kids to keep litter under control so we can keep this privilege ," said Principal Harold Dietrich To solve the problem , Student Council collected old barrels and secured them around the campus.

More than ever , the lack of space was focused upon as a pressing i ssue of our time. Most academic classes were cramped and overcrowded Consequently , a committee of teachers compr i sed a list of educational specifics for a new building project. It was turned over to the Board of Education pending final approval.

Independent study gave new opportunities for the students at Northeast this year. The purpose of the program was to give the students a chance to study subjects which were not offered in the school curr i culum. " It is an extra responsibility of the student where he can map out his own progress and work in areas which interest him ," stated Assistant Principal Barry Moore. Each individual student working within the program had a sponsoring committee It consisted of one faculty member , a counselor and the assistant principal in the area of i nstruction.

These individual projects and new courses created a need for an expansion in resource materials. As Mrs. Edyth Cascini, library administrator noted, " Any Media Center is really an extension of the classroom. The collection of materials should supplement, or in some cases, take the place of a basic text in the curriculum. "

Also benefiting the students were five guidance counselors. Because of the retirement of teacher-counselor Frank Simon, one-sixth of the student body had to adjust to new counselors.

Adjustments influenced

the curriculum as a total of seven new classes and a revision of others were introduced in the English department.

" These new courses are offered in order to give everyone a wider selection of choice," stated Mrs. Ula Maher, department chairman. "Everyone has their own particular area of interest. This is one reason why these classes are so great."

Creative Writing and Contemporary Literature were both popular in their first year at Northeast. They provided an opportunity for class members to express their own reactions, emotions , ideas and to study modern novels , essays and short stories.

"There is finally a class that's relevant to me , a victim of mandatory courses and useless requirements," remarked one senior in regard to the newly established courses.

Relevancy also play a key role in the creation of Public Relations Media. Under the direction of Daryl Blue, publications advisor, the class concentrated on two major areas of media; broadcasting and news writing.

The interpretation of this same mass media and its influences on everyday life was discussed in another new offering -Communication: the Total Expression.

Exchanging ideas and thoughts were the goals of Senior Comp students This class divided its curriculum in two sections. Composition I emphasized writing, in contrast to the reading of literary classics in Composition II.

Perhaps the most popular and wel I received class offered was Human Gire us Dealing with humanities, this class promised to have a long and bright future. While students joined with the anticipation of learning more about man, indepth study and research kept their interest alive.

Interest was also generated in traditional classes as subject emphasis shifted. In response to a charge that student's attitudes and interest spans were deteriorating, John Hiza, Business teacher, remarked, "I do believe their areas of interest are on the decline only when viewing from the old accepted ways." However , Lawrence Mason, English teacher, found the real problem to be "an indifference to challenging work. They used to be afraid not to work hard, today they are not. "

Contrary to his belief, foreign language students strove for excellence as they were offered optional continuous progress. This came as the result of a need for language students to read and translate foreign literature. Some did this through independent study.

"Someday I hope to be a French teacher," commented Senior Jan

Mrs. Lori Evans, French teacher, continued along the same lines. "We are readapting some of the material in the textbooks to enable students to work on individual projects. I think students like to choose their own rate of speed and it usually works out for the best. "

rr Why can't kids open their minds and attitudes to a point that they at least want to try?" -a teacher

"Something for everyone,"

was how Robert Woh l ers , Algebra instructor , descr i bed the Mathematics program at Northeast. From the developmental learner to the future computer programmer , an opportunity was provided for all.

Within the developmental l earning classes , the practical aspect of math was stressed much more than the theoretical aspect. Students were taught the basic ideas necessary to their everyday living.

For the average student , a program was used simi l ar to those found in the other Lincoln h i gh schools. Geometry , A l gebra and Pre-Calculus were offered preparing students for college Calculus.

The accelerated student was also considered by condensing the normal three years of study i nto two This allowed him to take Calculus as a sen i or for wh i ch he would receive nine hours credit i n college.

Programmed Math was one of the new features of the math curriculum at Northeast. Each student followed an individualized program , worked at his own rate , finished and was then no longer required to attend class.

Other new courses included a series of mini-classes which were combined under the title , " Math Topics. " These included Slide Rule , Logic and Probability and Statistics. In addition , Computer Programming was offered as a semester course to those who felt that this was the field they would like to go into

As the field of mathematic careers increased , so did the vocations offered by Science.

" Science is important to every student because it helps him understand the mechanics of his surroundings ," stated David Hunter , Aero-Space instructor. " This is especially so in this fast changing world of today Everyone needs some scientific background ."

However , the Science department at Northeast faced a grave problem of old facilities and limited space " The facilities we have to work with limit our course offerings and prevent us from adding new classes ," commented Richard Temme , department chairman.

Inst i lled within the perspective building complex were the hopes of many Science teachers. 11 Perhaps with the new facilities we can have a more flexible program and try new teaching methods ," noted Robert James , Biology teacher Other teachers felt more ind i vidualized activity and lab work could be used Concluding , Mr. James summed up the feelings of all the Science teachers by saying, " I hope with the new facilities we can even change our direction. "

Relevancy played

an important part in the History department this year.

When asked how the curriculum was readapted to the changing times, Melvin Berka stated, "I always strive to make the curriculum content of my classes more meani ngfu I and exciting for my students.''

John McCormick viewed another aspect of the situation. "The schools are losing a common frame of reference. It is getting difficult to help students learn by showing them how the subjects being taught are related to each other.''

Teachers showed initiative and developed ideas in the hope of making history curriculum more interesting. One such idea was the addition of Greco-Roman History. " In this course, the responsibility for learning was shifted from the teacher to the students," explained Jerry Taucretti, history instructor.

rr Some students have been pushed down so many times, they've lost their desire to care." - a teacher

The attitudes of the students changed also. Some teachers be1ieved that common interests declined while the diversity of interests increased. Most agreed that the student's interests were not declining. Rather, the students were expecting teachers to make learning more tolerable. Mr. McCormick observed, ''There are fewer students who are interested in being students of human behavior."

Not only can man be studied through his history, but also by how he has expressed himself through the arts.

Art allowed students to show their love of the world and its physical beauty. The word "art" is just an expression for that love. This expression develops with each individual.

A little bit of acting, dramatic theory, oral interpretation and technical theater was what drama was all about.

This course brought students closer together by teaching them how to care about others in a way most classes couldn't show. It also gave them the freedom to try new ways of expressing themselves and their ideas.

James Putman, Drama instructor, noted, "One of the reasons I enjoy teaching drama so much is because I can work individually with students. This make drama not only an art but a pleasure as well."

"Debate is a class where one must use his wits and be on the alert at all times," stated President Eric Asboe.

This year, the main issue was concerned with governmental financial support for public education.

Vice-president Mike Munden commented, "Debate was a rewarding experience that no other offering provided. It helped students research and analyze problems instead of making first minute decisions."

"The Voice of the Young Citizen" was again brought to the public mind through the use of radio. Each year Mrs. Elizabeth Reeder'sSpeech class sends a group of Northeast students to KFOR to present three different topics. This year's busy agenda consisted of "Abortion", "Are the Media Abusing Freedom of the Press?" and "All Volunteer Army''.

ult's surprising the way they come up with all of these new names for all of the same old classes!" - a student

Ecology and pollution

were two major concerns of Northeast students this year. Consequently, a new course was offered geared to the ecological aspect of Agriculture. "In this class we try to paint both sides to the story on pollution," stated LloydSchmadeke , Agriculture instructor.

Mr. Schmadeke also taught Agriculture I and II and was the only Agriculture teacher in Lincoln. As he observed, "There is a need for more agriculture in the other Lincoln schools since it is the largest industry in the United States today."

Public interest in industrial and vocational education brought an increase in student enrollment in the Industrial Art classes. This interest influenced many boys who admitted to taking industrial art classes because they wanted to and not just for the credits.

This attitude prevailed also, as the Business Education classes greeted new equipment, revised courses and an emphasis on academic relevancy.

"The new wireless multiple listening centers are a major breakthrough," ,quoted Miss Audria Shumard, department chairman, "and has thus far been extremely successful." These centers enabled students to listen to a channel while others were simultaneously listening to different frequencies. They also eliminated space-consuming cords and wires.

Typing classes were offered two days a week for a_general review of those who had typing in junior high. This class, like all the business

courses carried too large of an enrollment. "Room is the single greatest need here at Northeast," complained Miss Shumard, "and I believe the students are handicapped because of the shortage of space.''

In this time of student demand for meaningful courses, Miss Shumard felt her classes did a fine job. "There's an urgent need for qualified personnel in the business world and we usually place about 80% of our girls."

Not content to sit and listen, the members of the business classes were doers and class involvement was the key work to success. As Mable Jacoby, Shorthand instructor , repeated time and time again, " You get what you take out of class.'' .... ...

Physical Educa tion a dvanced to help students de vel op their minds as well as the ir bodies. It taught them how to function-as a team and how to accept both victory and defeat.

As Physical Education developed the body , the Home Economic department attempted to develop a skill within each individual.

" With more working parents in the Northeast area than any other district of Lincoln , we feel that a home training program is very important ," commented Mrs . Ida Kleckner , Foods instructor.

With this philosophy in mind , the Northeast Home Ecomics teachers tried to meet the needs of individual students when planning the curr i culum of their classes.

One result of this philosophy was the Bachelor Living course which was offered for the first time anywhere in Lincoln. The goal of this class was to teach boys to be selfsufficient.

" The class has been well rece ived with a total enrollment of over 250 boys. They are all very enthusiastic about the class and take it seriously ," exclaimed Mrs. Wanda Brown

Junior Kirk Squires tried to further explain the class by saying , " Teachers try to make the boys independent upon themselves so that when they want their own apartment they don ' t have to rely on someone to keep an eye on them. "

The positive proof that the course is working well is shown through the statement made by one student who said , " Someday , if I get married , I will make some lucky girl a good wife! "

This year Northeast has one " Home Economics Related Occupations " (HERO) class. In HERO the students train to go out into the occupational field The Home Ee teachers eventually see more HERO courses coming into the Northeast curriculm.

The chance for more advanced training was shown through Mrs Jean Gast ' s Clothing Ill class , the only one of its kind in Lincoln. In this loosely structured class , each girl has a chance to design her own clothes and make patterns This class also in the past has put on a style show in the Spring.

rrTeachers don't let you think for yourself" - a student

"Being a senior is one of

the most traumatic experiences any student can have during his thirteen years of school. It's a time in your life when the walls of security crumble and you are no longer a student. Instead , you are looked upon and judged as a contributing member of society ," commented senior Debbie Kalcik.

Appreciating authority came with the years. Holding the position of leaders at Lincoln Northeast belonged to the Class of '73. For the first time in their high school career , they were looked up to as prospective leaders of the school. Their attitudes contained concern for their future , the places in society they would hold and their right to decide what they wanted out of life.

Within the Class of ' 73 , many felt the knowledge accumulated in three years of high school could easily have been acquired in one year.

However, three years enabled the class to challenge themselves to the discovery of whether they could face the world on their own

" What I have learned in three years of school cou Id easily have been taught to me in one. But education involves more than just the constant memorization of facts. It involves learning about people also. This is something you can ' t learn in one year, " noted Kery Zimmerman.

" Senioritis" struck hard this year as in the past. Most seniors felt it was a time to be free. The short life of a senior presented excitement and adventure Many memories and recollections of the heated agitations of every student , teacher and athlete came into focus as the year progressed. Open campus and the emotional anticipations of senior day brought a touch of the ' total'

freedom that would come upon graduating.

" This year to me is just a home stretch to a twelve year race. Now it seems that it has gone by so fast , and we think that we have broken and set a new world record ," explained Terri Cook .

" The thing that really scares me is my future. I won ' t accomplish anything without the constant pushing from all the authority I have had. It just won ' t be the same accomplishing something on your own without someone getting on your back and nagging at you to get it done. I ' m really going to miss it. That ' s close! " explained Cindy Scheer.

The word " future " brought on a different feeling to every member of the Class of '73. To many it meant four more years of education. To others, it meant a full time job. However , the majority of seniors felt that the work they had done for twelve years would not end upon ·

their graduation.

" Everyone talks about the ' total' freedom you receive upon graduating. Sometimes I wonder if people forget that what ever they do after they graduate is going to involve just as much time and effort as their twelve years of education did, " remarked Melodee Owens.

As the year drew to a close, seniors could hold their memories forever , stored away in their minds. The hardest part would be leaving their friends and carefree days. The halls would be filled with new faces to take the place of theirs. Once more the cycle would begin for some young senior just like them.

As one senior put it, "It's really sad when everyone leaves, because you may never again see some of the friends you went to high school with. Yet, it is really exciting because we are gaining a whole new future opening its doors to us. Look out world, here we come! "

"Climbing one more step towards

the top of the ladder is the feeling that you have as a junior, " expressed Junior Rhonda Cerny . " You start at the bottom when you ' re in grade school , and now you ' re near enough to the top to recognize a resemblance of the world outside. ' '

As the class of '74 moved one year closer to their final year, a change in attitudes was experienced.

Junior Lisa Jeffers remarked that she felt more " secure " this past year. " As a sophomore you go through a year of discovery and sometimes confusion. Juniors, generally , are more at ease and a little more grown up. "

Progressing onward to the status of seniors was the biggest goal of most juniors. " Next year will be a mixture of the same 'discovery ' of the sophomore year and maturity that comes with the years.

Robyn Krcmark thought the junior class came " alive " this year. " As a sophomore I really didn ' t care too much about others that didn ' t concern me. Now , as a junior, I find that I reach out more for other people , and they are reaching back. "

Another Junior noted , " I can get involved more in some of the extracurricular activities which are a part of school life ."

This involvement came in the form of participation in the organization

of the annual Candlelight Ball and Junior-Senior Prom. It gave the girls a chance to work together as a class, to make decisions and solve problems.

" No longer were we bystanders , but participators in the active , exciting world of Northeast, " observed Junior Beth Wendt.

The differences between sophomore and junior years seemed to be as individual as the students themselves Junior Donn Schmidt commented, " The biggest difference was that this year , I can find my classes and I even know what day it is. " However , Jim Tomasek felt sure the only difference between his first and second years was the size of his biceps.

The juniors set high goals to enhance their middle year . " I want to do something outstanding for the junior class ," stated Maria Mar. But as another junior member expressed, " I'll be lucky if I make it to the twelfth grade .''

The juniors caught a glimpse of their senior year by participating in the PSAT and national merit tests. Some students expressed a difficulty in trying to make a decision on their careers after graduation. Joyce Breckenridge summed up these feelings in one word , pressure.

" From the moment you step inside high school , parents, teachers and classmates are all applying the pressure. Where are the carefree days when the hardest thing to decide was what color dress to wear ," questioned one junior.

Another point brought up by some students was the loss of oneness or unity. " Everyone is more concerned with individual activities and accomplishments rather than participating as a whole," viewed one class member.

All in all, however, juniors were happy to be another year older. Glen Sullivan summed up his beliefs by remarking, " Now I don ' t catch the blunt end of all the bad jokes "

rr'Jt's been one more year of playing the education game and co-operating with the system," - a jun-

As a junior there are more things to get involved with but now I don't have the time," -a junior

"When you're a sophomore you feel

like a square surrounded by circles

The harder you try to be round , the squarer you get. It's a never ending battle ," commented sophomore Diane Duganitz , as she summed up her feelings of the sophomore class

Beginning in September , the Class of '75 fought to become a pa rt of the tradition of their new school.

" We controlled the school as ninth graders. Now look at us We have to start all over again ," explained Mike Schmidt.

Involvement played a key role in the lives of many sophomores

Many boys actively part i cipated in the sport and intramural programs during their first year. Girls became involved in various clubs and activities.

" I think it really helps to become involved with school activ i ties in your first year. You become a part of the school and naturally you feel closer to it ," noted Nancy Bonneau.

However , there was still the feeling among many sophomores that " we don ' t feel a part of the school ".

" I really don ' t have a major goal this year . If I had to name one it would be to blend in with everything around , so when I walk down the hall , I won ' t be pointed out by some unknown person who yells ' Hey Sophomore' ," remarked one boy

Many sophomores felt a unity within their class. This became more visible as the year progressed. Coming from Junior High , each sophomore suddenly felt the pres-

sures of a new situation and environment.

" It all hit us at once. The neat thing about it is that everybody tries to be nice t o each other , and we know the adjustments that have to be made by each other ," explained Linda Horner.

Cindy Landstrom echoed the idea by stating , " As sophomores , no one is really competing for friends. Instead , everybody is nice to everyone. "

Sophomore Tammy Renken summed up the feelings of the majority of the class by noting , " We are all sophomores and we are all in the same situation We all have many of the same goals. However , we are all i nd i viduals trying to find a place to fit in. This is really the only difference between us and juniors or seniors They have found a place to fit in and we haven ' t yet. But just wait! "

"The desire to get involved

and participate in school activities has declined in the past few years," stated Cindy Scheer, Rockette merit chairman. "An increasing number of students are spending their free time after school outside of Northeast."

Senior Debbie Hanneman expressed her ideas concerning this decline. "The interest in school activities has decreased, and kids are more interested in their friends and personal happenings than in school offices."

Another reason came with the increased emphasis on student income. More and more students spent their evenings working. "I have a job and work almost every night after school. That doesn't leave too much time for school activities," commented Senior Gary Buntemeyer.

Due to the lack of active participation, many clubs felt a sharp drop-off in membership. Others, such as the art and photo clubs were discontinued from previous years.

Facing this decline of active members, many clubs redesigned their structures and strove toward more interesting projects. Rockettes was one such club. "We completely overhauled the out-dated constitution. Also, we emphasized that members participate in the activities rather than just wear the uniform," remarked Nancy Bishop, Rockette sponsor.

Other clubs expanded their rigid membership rules. "FFA has increased its number of members this year because of the change from farmers to agri-businessman. This allows anyone interested in agriculture related job opportunities to

join. Another reason for our increase is due to the decision of the National Convention last year permitting girls to become members," explained Dave Deterding, FFA president. GAA also embarked upon this method. Any girl who earned her letter in a varsity sport automatically became a member.

Another method was advocated by some clubs. They emphasized that members learn by doing. In Radio Club, members discovered how to operate and control different types of radios. Their goal from the beginning was to obtain their ham operator's license. Penguins also centered around aquiring new skills. "We spend long hours learning new stunts. Often it takes days of practice before they can be done well," noted Sheree Sharp, Penguin president.

While traditional organizations strove toward improvement in structure and activities, new clubs were created When a group of students took a deep interest in a certain current problem they organized themse l ves to deal with it. SAVE, Northeast ' s ecology club , attempted to " understand our environment and the mess it is in. " NOW (Northeast's Organization for Women) was also formed this year. " Our purpose was to evaluate woman ' s role in our school and country and then to see what we could accomplish, " stated one member.

Although Northeast suffered a decline in the number of students willing or able to get involved in various clubs , those who did , worked hard toward the accomplishment of their goals. Their sincere interest and desire to participate in different activities overcame their lack of numbers.

'""It's easy to criticize Stu.dent Council's ineffectiveness, but stop and think, who else is doing anything?" -a student

foresight and initiative

were two qualities of this years Student Council as first semester President Larry Arnold referred to the group as having " more potential than any council I've worked with ."

Hindering this year's council was the lack of student support and failure to pass meaningful policies.

Early in the year, questions of abolishing the board were discussed because of its lack of power. The name was changed to the Student Advisory Council which was thought to be more appropriate. This council took the initiative to make improvements ·and remained intact throughout the year.

The council began with remodeling the student lounge. The committee was headed by Jack Irons and drawings were made by Patty Clark. " We decided to decorate the lounge in bright colors, fix the chairs and sofas and put the candy and drink machines to use," informed one council member. They also attempted to solve the problem of stolen purses.

The council, as in previous years , sponsored assemblies and Hub Club dances, but unique to this year's was the attempt to form a " student union. "

" The purpose of this union was to inform the students of the injustices being dorie to them," stated one member. " But when you say " union " in a conservative school like Northeast , thoughts automatically turn to " radical. " It's far from that. "

The union was an attempt to counter the power of the administration and called only for co-operation from the student body.

Senior Cynthia Bowsman thought the idea had potential but " only as a liaison between the different schools. "

" It would serve to bring the kids together ," Larry admitted, " and hopefully solve significant problems relating to school policies. "

One of the many problems concerning Northeast's Student Advisory Council was the hostility between the board and the administration. " Almost everything we do is either vetoed or jumped on by the faculty members." Nancy Wright, council member, continued, " It ' s the most defeating thing in the world to get all excited about an issue and be shot down by a single ' NO'. "

,.,. To listen to the Student Body, you'd think the only purpose of a school newspaper is to satisfy their egos." -Reg Berka

"Just because we're

a school newspaper doesn't mean that we have to limit ourselves to the happenings at Northeast. We write stories about subjects the students might not know about otherwise. " This is the decision made by the NORTHEASTERN editorial staff when discussing the major goals of the paper according to Editor Linda Lionberger

Some articles that portrayed this objective dealt with the issues of hitchhiking and ecology.

At the same time , the NORTHEASTERN staff kept in mind the respons i bilities of a school newspaper to report the school news. There were articles about the allschool plays and musicals, dances , local games and student happenings.

There was also a combination of these objectives as the paper printed articles on subjects as the feelings of Northeast students toward the elections in November and the participation of Northeast in state-wide school activities.

The NORTHEASTERN got off to a slow start this year as the first several issues arrived late to the reader.

"The main problem has been inexperience. The newspaper staff , advisor and printers were all new this year, and like all newcomers,

the breaking-in period is tough, " explained News Editor Cynthia Bowsman.

•

Publication Advisor Daryl Blue commented , " What I try to get the staff most concerned with is to get along with other staff members and to get as much variety in the stories as possible It ' s important for a group such as this dealing with communications to get along and be a close-knit group. I think that the staff realized th is because it has worked out well. I've seen a great improvement since the first couple issues, " Mr. Blue continued.

After the first few papers, the enti re staff made some major decisions regarding future issues.

They decided to have a more diversified sports page and more than one editorial on the editorial page. This change coming from the fact that there are more than one opinion on subjects between the staff members themselves.

They also decided to box in stories, give more art assignments and use more impressionistic writing.

" We ' re trying to get the coverage spread out by putting the emphasis on getting more people involved, " Linda explained. " The school also has to remember that we have to write for the majority," · she continued

Linda voiced the attitude change of the NORTHEASTERN staff as she stated, "We're the staff and we have to take the professional point of view. We're putting out this paper for our experience and not just for the · student's enrichment. "

The one goal that the NORTHEASTERN staff set from the very first issue of the paper was improvement.

"A yearbook is

a conglomeration of what the staff members consider the lasting memories for the rest of the student body ," explained Daryl BltJe , publicat i on advisor Although this was Mr Blue ' s first year at Northeast , he realized what must be accomp l ished.

" A very important goal for each yearbook is that it touch every student This is somet i mes difficult because often you must sacrifice personal taste in consideration of what wi II best please the majority of students. "

In an effort to represent all of Northeast , the theme " Our World and Welcome to It " was chosen. " This applies to everyone ," commented Photo Editor Peggy Hielen " It automatically implies our school , and since being a student is part of our world- it fits. "

As Editor of the ROCKET , Cindy Scheer worked closely with the theme. She was in charge of mood copy which creates the atmosphere of the book by introducing the theme and tying the different sections together.

Cindy also supervised the rest of the staff and made sure everything was finished promptly. " It really gets hect i c when the deadlines draw close , but in the end , you can look at the finished copy and know you played a key role in its creation. "

Although Cindy worked on the staff last year , she commented , " I'm even more excited about it this year

Sports Editor Ron Sinclair acquaints his assistant Mark Harris with the tricks of the trade.

It's more personal, and like all seniors, I want my last yearbook to be the best."

Another returnee to the ROCKET staff was Peggy Hielen. It was her responsibility to see that all pictures were taken and cropped. "It's not easy to do this because you must be aware of the many happenings at Northeast," remarked Peggy.

Further complicating Peggy's job were the color pictures for the mood section this year. These took long hours of working with photographers to get the desired effects.

Also striving for special effects was Managing Editor Margaret Mar. She was in charge of layouts for every page along with the cover and division pages.

Her goals were simplicity and uniqueness as illustrated in her cover design. It was created to greet each reader and welcome them into the book and the world of Northeast.

Describing this world and its many activities were the main responsibilities of Copy Editors Pat McNeil and Sandi Huber. In order to better tell what Northeast was like, the entire copy staff strove for depth in their copy. "We are trying to get away from the surface things that are usually found in a yearbook. It was our hope to show some of the problems and wonders of our school," noted Sandi.

Because of the extended sports coverage, Sports Editor Ron Sinclair and his co-worker Mark Harris spent many hours writing copy. This extension was the result of the addition of the two new varsity girls' sports and the Reserve Baseball team.

Ron, as well as the other staff members struggled toward perfection in their work. This was, as Pat observed, "like a part of you going out on printed pages."

"Synchronized swimming is an

individual art and a team act mixed with school spirit and a desire to. be exceptional ," explained Penguin sponsor Mrs. Vietta Short.

This year ' s group was combined from a cross section of track members , volleyball members , gymnasts,, bowlers, golfers and members of the swim team. Graceful swimming and being within the recommended weight according to height were the only qualifications given in order to be a member of the Penguin club.

According to Mrs. Short, " The purpose of the Penguin club is to be of service to our community and school by life guarding , teaching others to sw i m , learning to swim in an artful manner and participating

in public performances ."

Sheree Sharp , Pengu i n club President , viewed the club ' s purpose as " for the enjoyment of the students involved and for the enjoyment of our audiences ."

The performance this year was the 25th anniversary review and celebration . " Twenty-Five Splashes of Silver " began with the Parade of Penguins. Patti Whitefoot, Jean Wenzel and Janet McBride each soloed in " Holidays ," " Floating Gardens " and " Wizard of Oz. " A brightly painted mural was displayed to convey the different acts .

"Friendship among people

everywhere is the most important goal of AFS , stated foreign exchange student Olivia Rogeria Rodrigues Gomes from Brazil. " It also provides an opportunity to see that all the people in the world are alike in thinking , loving and living. "

Nazool Dilanchian , another exchange student from Iran , offered another view as to the purpose of this exchange program . " It allows us to meet different people with various ideas and to learn more about the world and each other. ''

Nazool , a senior , lived with the Melvin King family. She stated , " It is fun travelling in other countries and meeting different people.

Olivia , who is also a senior , lived with Mr. and Mrs. Jerry Fletcher. Commenting about our life style, she explained , " It ' s a very active life with lots of things to do , and for this reason , I like it. Also , when I was a child I wanted to know this country. And , now , for me , it's a dream come true."

Adjustments to our way of living were made quickly by the exchange students. Nazool observed , " You have very nice schools and universities which are the basics of a good society and an enlightened people ." Olivia continued, " I ' m keeping my eyes and ears open to learning. "

Upon arriving at Northeast , Olivia saw little difference between students here and her Brazilian friends. In contrast , Nazool stated , " The kids here are more warm-hearted and friendly. They don ' t pretend to be someone else. They show themselves as they are .''

Both girls were members of Student council, Pep Club and International Club. Olivia took part in GAA, volleyball and drama Nazool remarked that she was happy to be involved in Northeast activities because '' they make me too busy to think about home. "

International

club retained the goals and functions of previous years despite a slow start and low club membership this year.

" Our main goal is to help promote international understanding in our own way, " stated Judy Wilcox, club sponsor.

The organization plays an important part in helping the AFS program at Northeast. Through many projects , the club aids in the finances involved in bringing foreign students to Northeast and in sending LN students abroad.

The group started off activities with a foreign food dinner. International club once again planned for the sale of King's tickets to help finance the AFS program.

Another language club specializing in learning French culture, participated in many interesting activities during the year. Members of French Club enjoyed bicycling to a park for a French picnic, Christmas parties with caroling in French and a trip to an Omaha French restaurant.

"Our club is organized to build interest and enjoyment in the French language," commented club sponsor Lori Evans.

As member Debbie Terhine explained, "People don't know how much fun it is until they get involved in a club like this."

"Developing working skills is

The letters D.E.C.A. stand for " Distributive Education Clubs of America. " The club covers local , state and nation-wide levels

" DECA, like most clubs , aids in the development of leadership and membership simply through the business operation itself," commented sponsor Tim Nilsson.

Activities throughout the year aided in providing these leadership qualities to many members. One of these many activities was contained

in the operation of a Christmas shop on the LN campus. The merchandise held by " Limited " varied from incense to the most recent styles in clothes. Each student in DECA took a part in either supplying the store or operating it.

DECA is basically a professional business group and is intended to provide entertainment and at the same time show students the nature of the business world. Many local and civic activities were held to provide this experience for the students

With a second place state championship

left over from the 1971 season , this year ' s varsity debaters were termed as an " inexperienced squad with a lot of potent i al. "

" At the beginning of the year , the chances were slim as to whet~r or not we ' d even take one trophy ," commented NFL Vice-President Mike Munden. " But as the season progressed , I was pleased with our showing. "

The National Forensic League seemed to be the center of activities for many of its members. Summer vacations , before and after-school sessions and many hours of leisure time were all devoted to case for-

mations and presentations

The debaters were disappo i nted with this year ' s topic concerning the sole federal support to the public school systems.

" It's not the most stimulating subject, b-t debate itself gives you valuable experience in formulat i ng and communicating your ideas ," stated Mike.

Eric Asboe , NFL President felt that the informal atmosphere of the debate class helped to inspire members to work harder. "That , along with the best coach in the state, promised to make our season successful. "

"The goal of our

club this year is to form a mature relationship and respect for competitive attitudes,'' commented GAA sponsor Vietta Short.

The letters G.A.A. stand for Girls' Athletic Association. Unlike many clubs, GAA limits its membership to girls only. The only qualification to join is that a girl be interested in sport activities.

"GAA provides a break from the everyday club because within the club, you are recognized as an individual," stated one member.

The club started off the year with their annual watermelon feed. This gave new sophomores the chance to meet new friends and get deeper involved in their school. Candy sales, Halloween parties, Christmas parties and mother-daughter playdays were also held as a part of the club's scheduled activities. One of the most important functions of GAA is awarding letters to girls who have lettered in various sport activities. All girls that had previously lettered in sports were made members in GAA.

As one member explained, "To receive a letter in a sport is like receiving a rewarding experience and this is what GAA provides for me."

What did three

clubs , Radio , Chess and Ecology have in common this year? Each claimed sparse membersh i p and little activity but a strong purpose behind its organization

" We haven ' t embarked on too many projects as yet because right now we ' re just trying to gain awareness , stated SAVE (Students for the Attainment of a Viable Environment) member Cynthia Bowsman. As another SAVE advocate remarked , " The important thing is to understand our environment and the mess that it is in. After that , something can effectively be done to help solve the problems. "

Along with their sponsor , Albert Stewart, SAVE hiked in Wilderness Park in the fall , accepted an invitation to dinner at the Isaac Walton League in January and planned other activities to stimulate their awareness of our environment.

Acknowledging the fact that most people have little awareness of chess , one club member sites the club ' s purpose as " a chance to get together with other chess enthusiasts ."

An additional boost was provided in the appearance of Loren Schmidt , a 1972 graduate , to help coach the teams.

" We meet weekly and attend bimonthly matches with the other schools ," stated one member. " But a good showing at the state tournament in the spring is our long term goal. "

" The chief goal of our Radio Club , as it has been for the past 17 years , is to prepare students for their Federal Communications Commission radio exam, " remarked sponsor Evan Boiler.

"The membership may be

low but the enthusiasm is higher than ever ," exclaimed Red Cross President Christi Esquivel.

With only 16 members , the roster remained primarily upperclassmen. However, efforts were put forth to recruit juniors and sophomores by class visits and a series of projects

" I ' m really worried about the future of Red Cross here at LN ," complained Secretary-Treasurer Pat Swanson , referring to the fact that all but two members were graduating

Money-making projects began with a bake sale. It was followed by car washes , Halloween and Christmas parties.

The creation and sale of small fuzzy " furples " provided the incentive for many of these moneymakers As Polly Wimberly stated, " People think that Red Cross is doing so much good and we ' d like to think that too. What they don ' t know is how much fun it is. "

Sponsor Nesha Schumann sat in on the meetings and provided the mature insight necessary to all organized clubs.

" This is one dedicated group of girls ," confessed Mrs. Schumann, " and something told me we were going to get a lot done this year. "

"The informal atmosphere

found at Masque and Gavel meetings makes it one of the best clubs at Northeast ," remarked Senior Larry Bratt. " You can be yourself without worrying about others looking down on you. "

Another opin i on was expressed by Vice-President Nancy Collins. She described Masque and Gavel as " a club that does something. "

This description held true throughout the year. The various activities of the club kept the members constantly occupied

As in past years , Masque and Gavel sponsored both all school plays. It supplied the majority of actors as well as crew members Also , the traditional ticket selling parties gave additional support.

Other standard activities included the showing of Old Time Movies and the spring and fall banquets.

As the new officers and club members were recognized at the banquets , the true purpose of Masque and Gavel was reemphasized The constitution states it as " the furtherence of speech and drama in the school and the community ."

In an attempt toward community service , club members decided to go caroling at Christmas time. " Although this is not really connected with the theater, it brings the school closer to the community ," noted James Putman, club sponsor. Masque and Gavel experimented in another new area this year. For

the first time , Don Renaud and Nancy Collins represented Northeast at the Nebraska State Speech and Drama Contest sponsored by Wesleyan University. They performed a scene from " The Time of Your Life " and received second place. " It gave us a chance to compete with people from all over the state ," Don commented.

With all the activities that the club undertook this year , it still maintained its sense of humor. As Larry Bratt summed it up , " in Masque and Gavel , we accomplish serious things in a fun way. "

Stressing leadership

and acquiring a knowledge of such skills as mechanics, gardening, soil analysis, crop planting and surveying are only two of the principals Future Farmers of America is based on.

" We learn these basic skills and meet important people concerned with agriculture," commented FFA President Dave Deterding. " We also have contests where you can compete nationally and prepare for future employment. It's a fast changing field where you can apply our motto, "Learn by Doing."

New developments were continually taking place in FFA.

"We have two new Ag-related classes," said Tim Woodcock. "Horticulture and Ecology were

both offered this year, and you could apply for membership by taking either one of these."

Meanwhile, membership increased as the result of allowing girls into the club and an emphasis shift.

"No longer do the words farmer and farming have the same connotation," replied club sponsor Lloyd Schmadeke. "Agrabusiness is the field and new job opportunities are being constantly provided."

The Northeast chapter of FFA, the only one in Lincoln, performed such community services such as ringing bells for the Salvation Army and building benches for the Lancaster County Department of Mental Retardation.

With a shine on their horns and

soft rubber shoes , the Rocket Band marched, played and participated in many school activities.

Besides entertaining at the home football games and all inter-city basketball games, the Rocket Band participated in the All-City Band contest, the Mid-east Band Festival and the Instrumental Spring Concert. The band marched in two city parades this year; the Veteran's Day parade and the Havelock Christmas Parade. They also joined the vocal department in giving vesper concerts throughout the school year.

The Rocket orchestra accompanied the Choir and Girl ' s Glee in vesper concerts. They also played for the school operetta and the Christmas program. The Rocket orchestra entertained in the All-City Orchestra Festival and Spring Concert. They completed the year with music at the Honor Assembly.

The new lunch schedule this year presented a problem for the Rocket Band. First semester they were given the first lunch period, but it proved to be unsatisfactory. Second semester they were changed

to the second lunch period. " We had to have more flexibility of rehearsals during fifth period, especially with the solo and ensemble contest second semester," commented Duane Schulz , instrumental music instructor.

Another change th is year in the department was obvious at the in town football games. Different sections of the Rocket Band were featured in special musical numbers.

Mr. Schulz stated that during second semester the Stage Band lost several of its members. He attributed this to driver training courses, work release schedules , dissatisfaction or lack of desire to be involved in music. " This hampered the group from any public performance because of the shortage of full instrumentation," according to Mr. Schulz. Yet the Stage Band participated in the Rocket Revue, Kiwanis Pancake Feed, Vespers and Spring Concerts. A highlight of the year was the participation in the Melzer Stage Band Festival at Wesleyan University.

In keeping with tradition, the choir caroled through the halls of Northeast.

"Northeast's vocal

department certainly has variety for all," stated vocal instructor Duane Nichols. "That's why we have the largest enrollment percentage-wise of all the Lincoln high schools."

The small groups at Lincoln Northeast this year included Triple Trio, Boys' Octet and Mini Choir. Directing these groups were Mrs. Velma Snook and Mr. Nichols. The small groups performed for various organizations and civic-related activities. There were no special qualifications needed to try out other than showing an interest in music.

Choir, Sophomore Mixed Chorus, Sophomore Girls' Chorus, Boys' Glee and Girls' Glee are the other group classes in the vocal department. These groups participated in school oriented programs and the annual Lincoln Public School ' s Spring Choral Festival.

Continued from last year ' s curriculum was a voice class. In this course, students learned to sing solos and studied music of all styles and several different languages.

They also learned some tips about performing in front of an audience. The use of a microphone and video-tape player techniques were introduced. In this class, each student progressed individually. According to Mr. Nichols , " Most students are coming back for an additional year or two of training."

Still another facet of music offered to students was music theory. In this class, students studied the history of music from the middle ages to present times. They were taught the style and composition of music and how to eventually write their own compositions.

A wide variety of vocal events accompanied the large selection of classes. Lincoln Northeast proudly sent eleven representatives to the State Music Clinic in Kearney in November. The groups participated in the all-city Choir night as well as the annual Spring Choral Festival in April.

An abundance of talent, both musically and

dramatically , dominated the stage at the annual presentation of Northeast ' s 1972 Rocket Revue

The theme chosen this year was " Rocket Ordinance Center of Keyed Entertainment Therapy " and was carried out in setting and atmosphere

The transformation of a plain stage into a busy hospital ward was aided by Dr. Markus Welfare and his fellow masters and mistresses of ceremonies. Rich Dolezal , Mark Cromer , Larry Bratt , Lynn Boyte and Susan Milburn all discussed each " patient " before the act was presented.

The show began with a musical prelude by Cindy Byrne followed by case study number one , " Scarborough Fair " and " Feelin ' Groovy " presented by Girl ' s Glee. Other group performances included Boys ' Octet , G i rls ' Triple Trio and Min i Choir , all executed with a professional air. Musical tunes " Close to You, " " On Top of the World " and " I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing " were highlighted by these groups.

Soloist Jan Hallet re-enacted " Second Hand Rose ," and for a taste of originality , Barb Bender and Robbin Ragland performed a piano duet. They · combined the· compositions of " Mozart Sonata " and " Summer of ' 42. "

An outstanding vocal medley was sung by Bob Vance , Eric Asboe , Russ Zierke , Karen Berka and Jenni Cockrell. Russ displayed talent more than once by joining Jenni in singing " It's too Late " and by playing guitar and piano accompani-

ments throughout the medley. A combination of the Mini Choir , Boys ' Octet and Triple Tr i o rounded out the singing presentations with " If " and " Just An Old Fashioned Love Song. "

The Rocket Stage Band played selections " Get It On" and backed up Julie Bouma as she sang " The First Time Ever that I Saw Your Face ."

Several comedy skits were presented this year to balance the entire production. A take-off on Dick

Tracy , Mark Time , won wholehearted approval of the audience while " A Day at Camp " conveyed the simple pleasures of chewing a piece of gum

Following the musical and comedy acts was " A Perfect Day. " This was a pantomimed driving skit set to background music. Olivia Rogeria R. Gomes , AFS student from Brazil , danced to music from her homeland while Ki m Kidd displayed acrobatic talent to the tune of " Romeo and Juliet. "

After last year's heavily criticized

program , the continuance of Northeast ' s annual talent show was questioned. Should the system of selecting the theme and acts be changed? If the program was to remain in existence , who would be the director in coming years? After taking most of the criticism and complaints over last year's program, director Duane Schultz was not as willing to plan the show as in previous years.

Students were anxious to see if any improvements were made in the 1972 Rocket Revue. The Northeast audience viewed the program with split opinions. Most agreed there was an over abundance of musical performance.

" I didn ' t like it. It was loaded with too many musical acts, " commented one student.

However, most of the student body was unaware of the entire

situation.

"Of course there was an excess of musical acts, but when that is al I that tries out how can there be anything else in the show? " questioned vocal teacher Velma Snook.

Mr. Schultz echoed this response by explaining, "Any and all types of skits were readily accepted due to the shortage of acts."

Senior Karen Berka, who participated in the program, showed more thoughtfulness to the school's efforts. "I thought the acts were original and contained a lot of variety , but of course I was so nervous I couldn't really appreciate the acts before I went on stage."

While some criticism was expressed towards the 1972 Rocket Revue, one fact remained intact. There was a numerous amount of talent exhibited and a great deal of fun to be had by all who were involved.

"Guys and Dolls" was presented

this year by the Northeast Choir The operetta , subtitled " A Musical Fable of Broadway ," was based on characters by Damon Runyon The music and lyrics were by Frank Laesser.

The scene opens in New York City with Miss Sarah Brown , a Salvation Army lass , in charge of the Save-ASou I Mission near Times Square. She holds street corner meetings in the same vicinity where Nathan Detroit and his gambling cronies (Nicely-Nicely Johnson , Benny Southstreet , Big Jule , Rusty Charlie , and Harry the House) hangout. The action concerns them , their girls and their troubles

The chief problem is deciding between the rolling of the dice and the beating of the heart. Nathan is the operator of a floating crap game that at the moment is temporarily nameless because Officer Brannigan is waging a campaign on crap games in this neighborhood. Miss Adelaide , a singer at the Hot Box is tired of her fourteen year engagement to Nathan and wants him to go legit and marry her. But the nuptials are continually postpon ed because of Nathan ' s sudden need to dash off to the Saratoga Race Track , a feverish crap game , or disappear in other

mysterous ways If Nathan can raise $1 ,000 be can get a place to hold his game and the town is full of anxious crap shooters looking for action He hits upon an idea. Sky Masterson is passing through town on his way to Havana and Nathan knows Sky will bet on almost anything. Nathan tricks Sky into a bet where-by Nathan says that he can name a " doll " that will not go to Havana with Sky. Sky is sure of himself not only in gambling but particularly with women and takes the bet. Nathan names Miss Sarah , and from here the plot thickens

One of the problems with " Guys and Dolls " was the costumes. " The Mission Band uniforms are from the Salvation Army and they won ' t lend them to anyone. The situation has become touchy ," reported Mrs. Snook, choir director.

Kery Zimmerman , who plays Adelaide, said whe was typical of all other students who received a leading role as she stated, " It ' s by far the most exciting thing that ' s happened to me ." She then summed up the feelings of the crew expressing , " It ' s a lot of hard work , but all the fun we have working with the other kids and getting to know each other, makes it well worth the efforts ."

"The Spiral Staircase"

created a suspensefu I atmosphere in the opening minutes as Northeas t' s first semester all - school play was presented This two-act murder mystery kept the audience in suspense until the shocking climax when the murderer was finally revealed.

The story centered around Helen, a mute gir l whose l i fe was endangered. There had been a series of murders in the surrounding area, all of which had been young girls with a noticeable defect. As the play progressed , it seemed as though any of the characters were possible suspects in the murders Helen ' s life became more and more endangered. Not until the final moments of the play did Professor Warren emerge as the murderer by attempting to strangle Helen

A variety of problems were encountered while working on the play.

" One of the major difficulties was

keeping the identi t y of the murderer a secret. There were many peop l e who had seen the play as a movie. Also , there were those who read the script for try-outs or had worked on the product i on crews They all knew who it was ," commented Roger Bolan , who played the part of Professor Warren . Other obstacles came as each actor developed their character For Dixie Payne , who portrayed Helen , facial expression and gestures were her only means of communication to the audience.

However , the obstacles were overcome and those who had worked on the play felt that the hard work had been worthwhile.

As Senior Larry Bratt expressed , " It gives you a sense of personal satisfaction. It ' s something you can do for your school just like playing footbal I or basketbal I. "

"Sabrina Fair," the second

semester all-school play , was chosen by Director James Putman for several reasons. "It has a large cast which allows more students to become involved. Also it is a comedy , and I felt it appealed to Northeast audiences. But the main reason I chose it was because of the interesting characters in the play ," he stated.

The most peculiar characters in the play are Larabee and Fairchild Larabee , the master of the househo Id , has a hobby of attending funerals. He treats each as if it is a majo r social event in his life. Fairchild , the other intriguing person , works for Larabee as a chauffeur , though he owns over a million dollars in stocks. His reason for staying is that it gives him time to read.

The story revolves around the ch i ldren of these two men Sabrina , Fairchild ' s young daughter , returns home from Paris. She is running from a wealthy Frenchman who wants to marry her , but she has to go home first to find out if she still truly loves David , the son of Larabee. Soon after she returns , he comes in direct conflict with Linus , Larabee ' s other son, because of the great difference in their philosophies of life. However , Sabrina

eventually realizes that Linus is the man she loves. In the end , he asks her to marry him and she accepts

The theme of the play lies i n the contrasting ph i losophies of Linus and Sabrina. " If I want to take the world with power , and you want to take it with love, which of us will conquer the world , you or I? " questions Linus. Sabrina replied , " Neither of us ... alone. ''

Wh i le working on the play , both the cast and the crews encountered problems. A major difficulty was that the play got a late start due to Mr. Putman ' s hospitalization. Once started , the property crew had trouble locating a cockatoo , an important prop. The co-chairman found that these birds were outlawed in the United States and a cockateel had to be substituted. Costumes presented additional problems. There were many costume changes and some of them had to be made very quickly.

" Although we were short on time and ran into several problems, everyone worked diligently and cooperatively. The success of the play meant very much to everyone involved That ' s why I feel the play went so wel I ," expressed Stage Manager Larry Adams.

"N-Club just

isn ' t as important as i t used to be ," commented one member. " Maybe it ' s the declining spirit or the stress on extra-curr i cular activities , I just don ' t know ."

President Bruce Maske agreed. " Some meetings have an attendance of only 13 , and that ' s one of the bigger ones. ''

As in the past , N-Club members sold programs at home games and planned the All Sports Banquet.

" The banquet i s our big project for the year ," remarked N-Club cosponsor Barry Alvarez. " It takes the most planning , the most organizing and the most money ."

Money came to the club ' s treasury through a variety of projects

lettermen were taken to the University for l ectures , f il ms and presentations After a h~lf day of this , the program was evaluated and each participant received $1 O for his services.

" All this money came back to the club to take care of expenses ," emphasized Treasurer John Lee

Co-sponsor Robert El-s worked hard with Mr. Alvarez to bring about interes t and involvement within the group. " For too long we ' ve had the reputation of a do-nothing organization, " said Secretary Terry Dopp.

An added attraction came in the form of chartering a city bus to attend the Northeast migration. Both North Platte and Grand Island saw the i nvasion of 33 sen i ors.

" It wasn ' t club sponsored , but it was a time when our strength and unity was really show n," stated Rob Lehr.

Their school generated enthusiasm was also demonstrated by the inter-c i ty game chants and participation in school rallies.

A disillusioned member saw the club ' s unity drifting apart. " We don ' t even sit together anymore ," he remarked.

Letterman Ken Palensky continued along these lines. " There's · enough dividing factors among kids as it is. N-Club is just one more , and personally I don't believe in it. I don ' t want anyone to think I ' m better than they are just because I ' ve got a letter ."

"The thought of

not joining Rockettes never entered my mind ," noted Rockette member Sandi Huber. "I guess that I just considered it a part of my senior year."

In spite of many changes in the club's format and constitution, membership was low this year. Only ninety girls showed an interest in the club's activities.

"I don't really feel that the low membership is anything to be alarmed about. As seniors, girls find other interests and many just feel that pep club is not the type of organization they want to spend their extra time in, " commented member Pat McNeil.

The club's activities began early as Rockettes were the sponsors of the 1972 Homecoming activities. Many committees were formed to take care of the labeling of over 200 invitations, the planning of half• time ceremonies, the crowning of royalty and the decorating of the gym for the annual dance following the game. All committees were under the direction of co-hostesses Becky and Mona Hahn.

Besides planning Homecoming activities, members of Rockettes planned the Turnabout Dance, planned migrations to Hastings and North Platte, and actively took part in Spirit Week. A group of members got together and put on a skit in the form of an " amateur hour " during the rally at the end of the week. The 1973 ' spirit girl,' Denise Scharton, was also honored at the rally.

"In spite of all o.f the negative attitudes, I'm still gald that I joined Rockettes this year. It's one of the few times that you see all of your friends and it ' s a great way to get a lot of spirit going and to get involved in your school and its activities,'' explained one member.

rrThe merit system has really helped. No longer can you get away with writing notes to stay in. You've got to participate to be a member."

,.,.Why join Rockettes? You can have just as much spirit out of pep club as you can in-sometimes even morel" - a former member of Rockettes

"The reason we changed the

constitution and policies of our club was that the club was taking a negative direction with the demerit system. We felt we could transform it into a positive direction with merits only," explained Merit Chairman Cindy Scheer. "I feel that this was a needed and long-awaited change. You can ' t deny the fact that there is an apathetic attitude among most members. I know there is because I have one. But I really think this has helped boost spirit because now when you cheer, you cheer because you want to and not because you have to."

Many changes were seen in this year's club policies. Besides the change in the system of receiving merits, it was decided that officers would serve for the entire year.

"I don't think it is fair the way the officers got shot down because of this change. It was the pep club that had the final vote on it anyway. If they didn ' t want it then they should have voted it out," commented one member.

Secretary Denise Wendt voiced her opinion on the change, commenting, "After looking at the other Lincoln High School's pep club constitutions and then getting together with the sponsors on it, we finally decided to put it in the new constitution. The pep club had the final voice in it and if th~y didn't like it, they should have voiced opposition then instead of making an issue of it later on in the year."

With all of the changes, it still didn ' t keep all members from quitting after football season.

"I really don't know why I quit. I've regretted it sometimes, but it just didn't seem right for me," noted one girl.

In spite of the mixed emotions and feelings of those who quit and those who stayed in pep club, there was the prevailing attitude shown by Jenni Cockrell, stating, "Of course Rockettes wasn't a waste of time. When you think of all the fun you had, all of the bad aspects we didn't like about the club disappear."

Reserve Pep club because everybody else did. After I got involved , I found that all the spirit that is present within the club makes you feel closer to the school , " commented Reserve Pep Club member Marge Maresh. " Being in an organized pep club increases the amount of spirit you have and being around other girls prompts you to show it. "

This sentiment was shared by a large number of club members in spite of some significant changes within the club structure. Some of the new changes brought about disagreement and divided feelings among many members.

The first area where an alteration in the format of the club was seen was in the wearing of pep club uniforms. In recent years , the club had chosen to wear their uniforms on Varsity game days only. At the beginning of the year , a meeting was held and at this meeting it was decided that the girls would be required to wear their uniforms on Reserve game days as well as Varsity game days .

" I really don ' t go along with this idea at all. I feel that I am being forced into a position where I am being dictated as to how I should show my spirit. It just doesn ' t seem fair ," noted one member

Along with this feeling was the at-

"At first I joined

titude shown by member Beth Wendt. " I get so sick of girls telling me that they sent their uniforms to the cleaners. When the girls joined this club , they knew that this was one of the requirements. Maybe they should have thought about this before they joined. "

Also new to this year ' s Reserve Pep Club was the rule that girls would no longer receive merits for attendance at Reserve games. It was decided that attendance would be mandatory.

" I really th i nk that this is a good idea because after all , we are the

Reserve Pep Club and we should support the Reserves first ," explained one member.

Another move was seen when it was decided that members were required to attend five hours of fall sports and five hours of winter sports. This seemed to cause the most difficulty and confusion This change-over left the support of teams up to the individual. Girls were no longer forced to attend certain events assigned to squads as in previous years.

Mary Hertzel reflected the majority of the club ' s feelings when she stated , " I think that you should only have to attend as many events as you want. Support for the teams

shouldn ' t have to be forced ."

In spite of the opposition caused by these new rulings , the Reserve Pep Club enjoyed a successful year and rendered spirit to the teams through various ways. A pizza party was held during spirit week so that girls could get together and make signs. Pre-game dinners were held and a migration to the NortheastGrand Island basketball game was planned.

Member Rhonda Cerny summed up the year by explaining , " We ' ve had a lot of controversy in this year ' s club , but we ' ve also had a club that produced more spirit and enthusiasm than in previous years. We also had more fun doing it! "

"It's not easy being a cheerleader.

There's much more to it than many students realize. It takes a lot of time and effort. Our work begins as soon as summer vacation starts and ends when the school year is over," commented a varsity cheerleader.

Shortly after school was released for the summer, a meeting was held to inform the girls and their mothers of the policies that cheerleaders were expected to observe. Mrs. Nancy O'Brien, cheerleader sponsor, pointed out two important requirements as she stated, "Each girl must attend all in-town football and basketball games. The girls also must maintain a 4.0 grade average without any sevens.'' At the meeting, squads were assigned and plans for the Nebraska State Cheerleading Clinic were discussed.

This planning was only the beginning of a long summer of lengthy practices. Three nights each week were set aside to learn the numerous cheers, chants, and porn-porn routines.

As the new school year approached, the cheerleaders began prepar-

ing for the sophomore tea. Each girl chose a cheer to introduce and lead. This not only helped the incoming sophomores but also gave the new cheerleaders their first opportunity to perform together before a group.

With the beginning of school the anticipation among the cheerleaders for the first pep rally grew to a climax. Each detail was carefully planned and rehearsed many times. Long hours were spent in preparation.

One cheerleader commented, "The rally took much more work than I ever thought possible. At firstit was really scary but as soon as the band started playing and students began coming in it gave me the neatest feeling inside. "

However , the cheerleaders soon learned that there was more to cheerleading than planning rallies

and cheering at games. They were faced with the age-old stereotyped cheerleader image. '' People expect certain things out of cheerleaders that they wouldn ' t out of other girls , and it ' s just not fair ," expressed a varsity cheerleader

Criticism was another problem they encountered. As one cheerleader commented , " You might as well face it. As a cheerleader you are going to be talked about by other students no matter what you do. They just won ' t let you be yourself."

But cheerleading did have its rewards. The girls got the chance to meet cheerleaders from other schools at their pre-game dinners. They experienced what the office was really like , and most rewarding of all was as one cheerleader expressed , " This will be something we can remember for the rest of our lives."

"What greater climax for Spirit

Week could you get? " questioned Senior Denise Wendt, referring to a one-point Rocket victory over first rated Lincoln East.

The enthusiasm at the Saturday night game reflected the great amount of Rocket spirit present during the week-long activities.

After each class was assigned to a floor, preparations began for wall signs and door signs. Both Rockettes and the Reserve Pep Club held combination sign-making and pizza -eating parties to decorate their floors. Not to be outdone, the sophomores worked long hard hours to keep up with the upper classmen.

At the annual Spirit Week rally Rockette members displayed their talents with their participation in the skit , " Bubbly Bun ' s Amateur · Hour. "

The cast in the amateur hour included a magic act from Lincoln High , gymnasts from Southeast and animal imitations from East High.

From Northeast came a satirical presentation of country western music set to the tune of " Your Cheating Heart. "

As the judges decision resulted in a tie, audience applause was called upon to determine a winner.

"Reed, Wright and the ' Rithmetics " received the majority of the unbiased applause and were declared victorious.

The annual presentation to the winners of the door and hall sign contests were made. The announcement of Denise Scharton as the 1973 "Spirit Girl" followed. A new recognition was made this year as Senior Mike Runyan overwhelmingly received the title of " Spirit Boy. "

The aim and effectiveness of Spirit Week was questioned once again this year as Junior Dona Clapper asked, "Is spirit something materialistic to be worn one week out of the whole year, or is it something to come from within?"

"Those were the Days"

was the theme chosen for the 1972 Homecoming activities. This was easily developed as the Class of ' 62 and the Class of ' 63 were honored.

"The recognition of both classes was due to a mix-up . Somehow , the Class of ' 62 was almost overlooked . In order to see that it was not forgotten , we decided to honor both classes," explained Becky Hahn , Homecoming co-chairman with Mona Hahn.

This decision put an extra burden on the invitation committee as approximately 600 invitations were sent. This caused each member to spend several hours individually writing and addressing each invitation.

To entertain the alumni at halftime, a series of skits were presented to recreate their high school days. A group of pony-tailed girls and guys in baggy pants demonstrated the then popular twist to " Shout, Shout, Knock Yourself • Out." Also brought to mind was the jug band. Another nostalgic skit was the car caravan. This commemorated the fact that these were the first years that cars were used to boost Rocket spirit.

Concluding the half-time show was the recognition of the Hosts and Hostesses from the classes of '62 and '63. In addition, the 1972 Homecoming royalty was honored.

Highlighting the evening was the

dance which followed the game. This was a break from the usual tradition of having the dance on the following evening. However , this was not whole-heartedly accepted as Senior Laura Logan remarked , " This year the dance didn ' t seem quite as special. It was almost like another Hub Club ."

In an attempt to minimize this problem and create a more relaxed atmosphere , the decoration committee decided to convert the gym into a footbal l field. A goal post and yard line markers aided in this transformation The concession area also underwent a change and turned into a locker room.

The unfolding of the Homecoming activities was due to a number of energetic Rockettes.

The traditional Northeast enthusiasm is demonstrated by the R ockettes as they form a spirit line to greet the team, l ef t. A 7 - 2 victory against the I slanders brought a ray of sunshine to the dampened field, b e lo w .

""Homecoming is the biggest farce this school participates in." - a student

In previous years, competition

between the high schools of Nebraska has shown good sportsmanship and outstanding competitive spirit by the young athletes who dominate their respective sports. However , do the fans who watch and admire these athletes know what it ' s really like to be a young man or woman participating in sports? Do the fans realize the dedication , the determination , the sweat , the pain and the mental strain the athletes have and go through?

The fans who watch the Rockets on the field , the court or the mat have no idea of a player ' s life just before an athletic contest. Many athletes have little superstitions that guide their life in sports. The night before a game an athlete tries to keep his mind off the game.

" There ' s nothing worse than lying in bed and not being able to sleep because you are nervously thinking

of how you are going to do the next day, " commented one Rocket gridder.

In the world of sports, pain is something you have to live with. Many times in professional athletics a star player will continue to play with a serious injury He will continue to play to his fullest capability because there is a certain pride and determination in a professional athlete that keeps him competing even in pain. There is no difference in a high school athlete. Because of a love for his sport and a respect for his coach, he continues to put forth effort.

Religion goes deeply into sports.

Various athletes depend on God to guide them through difficult situations. In some sports a prayer will precede the game It will be done individually or the team will all get together and look to God. They will pray for their well-being and look for help in victory. These prayers often follow the game in thankfulness.

Any thoughts other than what an athlete is doing during a game are usually blanked out of his mind. If he has a serious problem in another situation besides sports, it is usually shown in his performance on the field of play. Even the best of athletes can't perform under enormous mental strain. The precision he

needs is usually gone and the mental part of the game will have disappeared quickly.

Crowd cheering and band playing isn ' t heard at all because athletes have to keep fu II attention to the game and their coach. An occasional pat on the back or note of appreciation by a spectator is received approvingly by an athlete because of his determination to excel.

People engage in sport activities because of many reasons. Many young athletes are forced to participate because of their parents. However, most boys are playing because they want to. This increases their want for appreciation from fans when they achieve a certain goal. No true athlete shuns the support of fans because he is too good for them.

Athletes have to reach an emotional high for a game because a victory in sports is not only attained by athletic ability, but also by how "emotionally up" the player is. When a player reaches this high emotional pitch he can usually play to his full ability and help his team to victory. This is what the world of athletics is all about.

"Tying for the state championship,

tying for the city championship and winning the Trans-Nebraska conference championship were some of the many awards claimed by this year ' s Rocket footbal I team.

A 7-7 tie with Lincoln East was the only blemish on their record this season as they completed their first undefeated season since 1963. Coming off a losing season in '71, the Rockets , who were again coached by Bob Els and assistant Barry Alvarez, landed two players on the Lincoln Journal-Star All-State team and seven on the All-City team.

With only eleven lettermen returning from last years' team, no one expected the Rockets to cha I lenge the top ten, but according to Coach Els, "The fact that we had quite a number of players with about the same ability contributed to the amazing strength of the team. "

After the disappointing tie with the Spartans, the Rockets advanced to second in the polls, but after a close call with Class B Pius X, LN dropped to fourth in the rankings behind Bellevue, Omaha Ryan and East. An ineligible player knocked out Ryan, a loss to Omaha Rummel in the Metro conference championships dropped Bellevue and an equally close call for East with Pius enabled the Rockets to tie for state honors with the Spartans. Both the

Lincoln Journal-Star and the Omaha World-Herald ended up the season with ties between the Rockets and the Spartans while the AP and UPI issued out the state championship to East.

No doubt was left in the minds of Rocket fol lowers as the season ended. They all knew who was really number one

Team spirit was the key to victory in the season opener with Fremont. Northeast started right out with an electrifying punt return by Mel Knopp after one series of plays by Fremont. After that, the Tigers could only muster up one touchdown as the Rockets rolled to a 21-6 victory.

The Rockets displayed an amazing ground attact against Southeast in winning their second straight game of the young season , 20-7 Knopp and Pat Ewoldt ran for 135 and 134 yards respectively to lead the squad to victory. More or less the win was a mental lift for the upcoming contest with East.

Defense was the forte for the Rockets and the Spartans , as the two rough teams battled to a 7-7 tie , in a contest that was billed as the game of the year by some sportswriters. The Rockets who were rated second in the state by the Omaha World-Herald , scored first on a one yard sneak by Rob Ketterer , but couldn ' t hold the Spartans scoreless as they tossed a ten yard touchdown pass and added the point after to complete the tie.

Overconfident , the Rockets went into the Pius X Thunderbolt game the next week and came out victorious in a scare , 8-7. The thought th r ough Northeast the week before the game was that the game wouldn ' t be worth going to. Everybody was surprised when the Bolts scored first to take a 7-0 lead in the first quarter , but the poised Rockets came through in the third quarter with a touchdown pass and a two point conversion by Ketterer to prove the decisive margin.

Any thoughts of the Rockets losing their steam were ended when the Lincoln High Links held their homecoming against LN. The angry Rockets, helped by six Link turnovers , trampled the stunned team, 48-7. The most spectacular touchdown by the Rockets was a 40 yard aerial from Quarterback Rob Ketterer to Chuck Biggs.

The hard charging Rockets travelled to Hastings to play the undermanned Tigers. When all the smoke had cleared, LN had come up with a 34-3 victory. Bruce Maske held the spotlight by catching a 29 yard pass for one touchdown and a 61 yard toss to set up another touchdown.

Heading into the Grand Island game with an undefeated record, the Rockets experienced great dif-

ficulty in finally putting the Islanders away. A blocked punt resulting in a safety put the Rockets behind 2-:-0 in the first quarter. A three yard blast by Senior Pat Ewoldt in the second quarter put the Rockets ahead. Continual Rocket defensive stands kept the game exciting as the final count ended up LN 7GI 2.

The Omaha Bryan Bears were no trouble for the Rockets. Travelling to Omaha to play the Bears, LN came out a victor by trampling them, 45-0. Terry Dopp had an outstanding game, scoring the first two Rocket touchdowns. Knopp and Paul Bergman also played well as they both returned Bryan punts for a number of yards.

The last game of the season ended up almost fatal as the North Platte Bulldogs scared the Rockets by scoring two touchdowns before LN even thought about playing footbal I. State championship poise pulled out the game in the last minute when Ketterer hit Knopp with a 27 yard touchdown pass with 53 seconds to go in the contest. Rocket touchdowns were scored by Ketterer and Biggs along with Knopp's game saving catch to provide the 21-13 margin.

All-State first team honors were taken by Bruce Maske and Ric Dale. Ketterer, Ewoldt, Knopp and Ron Larson received honorable mention for their performance. Seven members of the squad were selected to the All-City first team. They were lineman Glen Sullivan, Larson, Maske, Dale and backs Biggs, Ketterer and Ewoldt. Lonnie Ray and Dave Weist were named to the honorable mention list.

The team's real ability

was not shown by the Reserve's disappointing record this season. Coaches Clayton Luther and Bill Fagler felt that underneath the surface lay an abundance of potential.

" We were in every game right to the end and our record could have easily been reversed," stated Fagler.

The statistics the two coaches were speaking of were the 1-6 record of the Rocket reserves this year. The Rockets pulled a victory in the first game of the season against Southeast. Despite the repeated loss of games in the final minutes of play, Coach Fagler felt , " The overall attitude of the team remained good."

The constant shuffling of players from Reserve to Varsity and back again presented a problem for the

coaches Most of the team ' s accomplished individuals would never see a Reserve practice, yet be brought down for the game. This posed difficulties in execution and also in team unity.

Praised for fine performance were Jim Miller, Todd Gettman, Rob Michaud, Randy Swenson, Don Kahler, Jim Toamsek, Jim Hageman and Stan Schmidt.

The primary idea of having a reserve team in high school is to help the underclassmen prepare for future varsity play. " They received some valuable game experience and learned to play before a larger crowd then they had in the past,'' remarked Fagler.

" I think we have individuals on the team who can step in and help the varsity next year.''

Sophomore athletics

is usually not a focal point for conversation around Northeast, but this years' edition of the Sophomore Rocket football squad proved to be different.

Heading into the last contest of the season with East High, there was an unusual buildup of the game. The Spartan sophs had never been scored upon all season and boasted an undefeated and untied record, and theyweren'tabout to be stopped by the Rockets.

However , a well disciplined LN squad, coached by Hank Willemsen

and assisted by Gail Cook , trampled the boastful Spartans 40-0 and captured a tie for the sophomore city championship.

The Rockets sported a 4-2 record with wips over Lincoln High, Beatrice, Pius X and the Spartans. The losses were to Seward and traditional sophomore rival, Southeast.

Individuals cited for better than average play were quarterback Kevin Kirby, split end Gordon Stodgell, fullback Tim Norwood and tackle Gary Reid.

Squad balance

proved to be the influencing factor as the 1972 Northeast cross country team compiled impressive wins over tough opposition.

Although not able to meet their team goal of qualifying for the state meet due to poor district results , head coach Max Hester voiced optimism and commendation when speaking of his fine group of runners.

" I think this team accomplished as much , if not more , than any other Northeast cross country team, " Hester commented. " They ran to win. Winning isn ' t everything but it sure beats coming in second. "

Bringing home impressive victories from the Fremont , Kearney, Lincoln High and Nebraska Wesleyan Invitationals highlighted an outstanding season record of 5-3-1 . The " flu-bug " was blamed for the three consecutive losses at the end of the season.

Honorary team captains , Seniors Rod Luft and Paul Luke , headed the list of nine lettermen. They were backed up by fellow seniors Dale Finke , Doug Hicks and Dave Smith. Juniors Mark Bullock , Gary Gustafson, Steve Harrison and Larry Welander rounded out the experienced squad.

Other than the " flu-bug ," Rocket injuries were quite small. Welander had surgery on an Achilles tendon early in the season but came back to be the highest placed Rocket harrier in the district with a ninth place performance.

When speaking of the attitudes of runners , Hester said, " They gave everything they had and a little bit more. They did a great job. "

A tremendous will to win helped one of the

smallest gymnastics teams in Northeast history gain a third place ranking in the state meet.

" Those who were on the team last year have all improved their routines both in difficulty and form," stated Coach Pat McGill. "The team scores have improved throughout the season also."

" I think we did better than anyone had expected," commented Senior letterman Toni Bonelli. " We were only supposed to win two or three meets, but we came out with a 6-2 dual meet record and our third place in the state meet. "

After a disappointing loss to the Southeast Knights, the team got together and vowed •not to lose another meet throughout the rest of

the season. After the last meet with Lincoln High, that vow became a reality. The Rockets downed the Links in a decisive victory, 117 to 112.

Leading the '72 squad through a tough season was senior letterman and tea m captain, Duane West. West captured state championship honors on the trampoline and took second place in Floor Exercise, High Bar, and All Around events. For all practical purposes, West was responsible for the six wins this season because of his high point scores and team leadership. The only event that West failed to qualify in for the state meet was the side horse.

Backing up West was senior let-

terman Dale Strough. Strough was a major threat on the rings and the para I lei bars and added strength to the trampoline and high bar events.

Senior Chuck Olsen and junior Bob Baty rounded out the list of Rocket gymnasts with previous varsity experience. Olsen captured a fourth place finish on the side horse and Baty landed a third place finish on the high bar in the district meet. This qualified them for the state meet.

"Disappointing"

seems to describe the Rocket ' s tennis teams through the last few years, and no different were the accomplishments this season as the netters suffered through another bad year.

All Northeast could muster up at the State Tennis meet were two points on a preliminary singles victory by Senior Dave Dlouhy. Those two points were enough to give the Rockets a tie for _7th place in the state.

Full effort was put forth by team members throughout the season. But, as Coach Keith Watt explained, "We got hurt in the amount of practice the boys gave out." Boosting the boys this year were more support and the inclusion of the team into more pep rallies.

With only one letterman returning from last year's squad, the team suffered through a 1-7 dual meet season. The only victory was a 6-3 decision against York. Tournaments and Invitationals proved to be downfalls also, as the Rockets placed no higher than fourth.

Dave Dlouhy was termed by Coach Watt as " the most improved player this season." Along with teammate Dlouhy, praise was also in store for sophomore Mike Schmidt. " He is a bright spot," added Watt, "and I look forward to seeing him develop into a fine competitive player next year. ''

A banner year for Northeast

emerged in 1973 as the Sophomore team went undefeated , the Reserves produced a winning season and the Rocket Varsity won the State C l ass A championship.

The Varsity roundballers climbed their way up the l adder to the pinnacle of success by defeating Omaha Westside in the state finals by a slim margin of 54 to 50.

Led by their five season long starters , Tom Westover , Marty Shields , Terry Novak , Bruce Maske and Rob Ketterer , the Rockets moved down opponents on their way to the Trans-Nebraska Conference championship , the city championship , the district championship and by far the most important , the state championship.

The Rockets headed into the state tournament with a 16-2 record and came out 19-2 on the year. Each game in the tourney proved similar as the LN cagers took a big lead in the first quarter and held on the rest of the way to give Northeast their seventh state tournament championship The Rockets drew Fremont in the first round and stopped the Tigers 55-43 with four of the starting five scoring in double figures led by Westover with 18 points while Junior Terry Novak snared an amazing 23 rebounds Maske led the Rockets to victory in the second round against the Kearney Bearcats , a team that LN had previously beaten in the regular season. Bruce scored 21 points in the game consisting mostly of key baskets in the third quarter. That set the stage for the finals where the Rockets took on Omaha Westside , the " cinderella " team of the tourney . The Warriors knocked off highly regarded Boystown and Omaha Central in the first two rounds and were cq.nfident they could knock off the king of high school basketball , but a 27 point scoring performance by Tom Westover in his last Rocket game proved to be the downfall of the Warriors.

In an unusual year , Coach Ed Johnson carried 15 boys throughout the season. The Rockets started off the season by winning their first four games , only to fall to the Lincoln High Links in a three overtime thriller by the score of 50-48. LN went the rest of the way ti 11 the second to last game of the season where they were knocked off by revenge-minded Lincoln East. The most exciting game of the season proved to be the first Spartan game, which ended the annual spirit week on a happy note The Rockets nipped East 61-60 in a see-saw battle with an attendance of approximately 7 ,700 people.

Northeast started District play with revenge in mind for East and Lincoln High and revenge it was as the Rockets swamped both. In playing the Spartans and Links , Coach Johnson was able to substitute freely at the end of each game.

Two midseason injuries

to floor leader Marty Shields and defensive mainstay Rob Ketterer hampered the Rockets ability and forced their ratings downfall, but various substitutes helped keep Northeast from faltering too far. Any doubts of Shields and Ketterer ' s ability to come back from their ankle injuries were vanished when both guards showed consistency the remainder of the year.

Bruce Maske and Terry Novak carried the rebounding load during the season with additional help from Westover and Shields. Novak compiled 45 rebounds during the three games in the state tournament with 23 of them coming in one game.

Defense, being the forte of Northeast basketbal I for many years proved to be of value this year as Shields, Ketterer and Maske showed great consistency during the year stopping their man. Whenever a man would get through the Rockets heralded defense, there was always an imposing figure in Novak waiting

for him. Novak would block as many as 10 shots a game. Not only would he block the shot down but would retrieve the ball and start a fast break himself, sometimes taking the ball all the way himself for two points.

Carrying the tradition through another year, Westover continued his barrage of the basket from long range, connecting on 46% of his shots, mostly from outside of 20 feet. When Tom wasn't hitting the basket, Shields would take up the slack where he left off.

Turning out to be the most consistent player of the season was Maske. He was always scoring points when they were needed and pulling down key rebounds. Maske was awarded a place on the AllCity second team.

Honors filed in after the year came to an end. Westover and Novak both gained First Team All-City honors with Rick Samuelson of East, Rick Reynolds of Southeast and Steve Harris of Lincoln High. Showing

their state wide supremacy , the Rockets also placed Westover and Novak on the All-State Tourney Team and Maske was placed on Honorable Mention.

First Team Class A All-State honors were bestowed upon Westover and Novak in the Sunday Lincoln Journal and Star with Novak being named to the super All-State team which includes players from all four classes in the state.

The Omaha World Herald named Novak to its Class A All-State team and placed Westover on its second team.

It truly was a year of honors and championship games for the players , but many people look past the spir i t that was shown by the pep club, the student body and the parents. Throughout the year ending tournaments, Rocket fans had to battle crowds for seats , sometimes having to go as early as five hours before game time to reserve a good seat. At many games, not only tournament games , attendance exceeded 7 , 000 people This is a tremendous tribute to the players , coaches and fans of Lincoln Northeast.

Extending a

string of 13 wins to 21 wins was the highlight of the 1972-73 Reserve Basketball season. After winning their first eight games of the season, the junior Rockets slumped to a four game losing streak. Although experiencing a bad mid-season , Coach Leroy Seng commented, " As far as I could tel l, they never gave up in any game. "

Ending up with a 10-5 record , the Rocket reserves turned up some fine varsity prospects for next year. Among them are Sophomore forward Gary Reid , who was the leading scorer and leading rebounder for the club, and Junior guard Jim Tomasek , who quarterbacked the team and was a fine defensive performer. Other individuals likely to move up and help the varsity next year are Juniors Gary Gustafson , Doug Russell , and Sophomore Jack Swanda Jeff Weideman , who came up for two reserve games , might also prove to be a vital varsity asset.

With a fine fast breaking and rebounding team , Coach Seng was pleased with the boys and noted that they were trying to improve themselves all the time In describing the season, Seng used the word " good. " He was satisfied with the team ' s performance during the first half of the season , but showed displeasure in the latter part for various reasons.

Contrary to tradition, none of the Reserve team moved up to varsity status. The reason for this was attributed to the fact that Coach Ed Johnson was carrying a full load of 15 players throughout the season.

Ending the

season with an undefeated record is always the goal for a high school team. The sophomore basketball team, coached by Hank Willemsen , achieved that goal this season by recording an 11-0 record.

" This is the best season I have experienced at Northeast, " expressed Coach Willemsen . " The players always felt that no team could defeat them ."

Having an extreme advantage in height and speed attributed to the constant beating the young Rockets gave their opponents. Willemsen had everything a coach would want: strong rebounding , good outside shooters , good ball handlers and a strong defense.

Guiding the team through their successfu I season were Jeff Weidem an , who averaged 14 points a game, Doug Neill averaging 11 points, Mick Vercellino averaging nine points and Mark Goldsberry averaging nine points . Goldsberry was also noted as be i ng the strongest defensive performer

" Many of these players will be an asset to the varsity and reserve teams next year ," commented Willemsen . " They have great spirit and a strong desire to win ." Continuing to comment on the successful season Willemsen noted that " the boys put forth full effort during the year, and I ' m happy I was able to coach them. "

The sophomores proved to be great he-Ip to the varsity this year as night after night, the boys attended varsity pract i ce They ran opposing teams plays , sometimes running them to perfection which indeed was a great asset to the Rockets fantastic year.

Lack of depth

proved to be a key factor as the 1973 Boy ' s Swimming Team compiled a 3-7 dual record. With only two lettermen returning from last year ' s 5-7 season , Coach Ken Wall and assistant Coach David Strange were faced with the task of rebuilding.

" I wish we had more boys at Northeast who had the guts to go out and stay out for competitive swimming ," stated Wall. " I am proud of our kids , their spirit and desire. Those who stayed with us are real Rockets! "

Senior letterman and team captain Dan Pickerel led the team through the season with impressive finishes. Pi ckerel was the only LN individual member to qualify for state . " Pickerel scored in every meet during his three years on the team and owns the second best time for the butterfly event in Rocket history," stated Wall.

Pickerel , the only senior on the team, headed the l i st of six lettermen which included juniors Mike Olsen , Mike Bevins and Doug Brannin with sophomore teammates Wally Demers and Kevin Seevers also earning letters for their fine performances.

" Our pool has to be a contributing factor to our consistent losing I hope we have a new pool in two years, '' remarked Strange.

The season was summed up as one girl explained , " I hope to have a lot of fun this year. I ' ve always enjoyed playing tennis and I think it will be especially fun to play on the first Girls ' Tennis team at Northeast. ' '

"It's an individual sport.

If you make a mistake , you can ' t blame it on someone else ," stated wrestling co-captain Bob Hamel. If you ' re not feeling 100% effective , you won ' t be able to do your best. "

Wrestling , with its individual oneon-one competition factor is increasing in popularity among Rocket fans. " It ' s a fantastic sport ," cited one wrestling backer. " It takes two boys and puts them together in a fast , action-packed battle of muscle , brawn and brain . The winner takes all because there is no one to fall back on and no one there to take your place. If it wasn ' t for the great basketbal I tradition at Northeast , wrestling would soon be the number one winter sport. "

Although qualifying only five grapplers for the state meet because of poor district tournament results , the 1973 season could be described as successful for both player and team.

Bob Hamel , one of four all-city

selections , failed to qualify for state. However , one of his accomplishments was winning the " outstanding wrestler " award at the Omaha North Invitational meet. Hamel , with his smooth , quick style was the overwhelming favorite of Rocket wrestling fans during the '73 season. " I used to go to all the meets just to watch him (Hamel) wrestle, " commented one pep club member. " I might get there just in time to see his match and then leave! "

Appearing with Hamel on the allcity list were juniors Dan Longoria, Richard Montgomery and senior teammate Dave King For Longoria, this was his second year on the list , and he will provide the leadership needed to make a succesful season next year

Qualifying for state were seniors King , Chuck Waldron and Ben Cahoon. Juniors Longoria and Montgomery also won berths in the tournament.

Longoria, after drawing a bye in the first round went on to defeat his opponent in the quarterfinals. He then lost the semifinals and the consolation semifinals by the score of 7-0.

Waldron was the highest placed Rocket at the end of the meet with a fourth place finish by making it to the consolation finals.

One of the highlights of the '73 season was the impressive victory over the Mexican Wrestling team. This squad composed completely of Mexican all-stars and included four international champions. Freestyle moves and holds executed by the Mexicans proved to be quite a challenge to the NE grapplers who were used to the strict style and rules of high school wrestling. That's where muscle took over as six Rockets won their individual matches to defeat the Mexicans by a score of 20-17. •

" The pressure in this type of a meet wasn ' t as great " commented head Coach John McIntyre, " and I think the boys had a good time wrestling and associating with the Mexicans."

The success or failure

of a baseball team , like any organized activity , depends to a large degree on attitude, potential and leadership. Northeast was fortunate to possess all three qualities to bring a well-rounded , experienced squad to the diamond this year.

With possibly the best return i ng lineup of any baseball team in the city, Coach Leroy Seng viewed the season optimistically. "Of course we always hope for a good season, " he replied , " but this year we have the material for a real outstanding ball club. "

Seng cited the strength of pitcher Bob Sampson as a key tool in winning games. " He is a top line player ," commented the head coach , " and I wish we had two or three more like him. "

Another Rocket standout was third baseman Scott Votava. The Rocket fielders looked to Scott for leadership, hard hitting and speed in the infield A fellow teammate best summed up his views on Scott when he said, " Votava is probably the best all-around player in the city. "

Shortstop Doug Pillard also lived up to Seng ' s pre-season expectations when he was singled out as a " top notch infielder ."

Other notable returnees on the team included catcher Jeff Obrecht , relief pitcher and first baseman Marty Shields and outfielders Chuck Biggs and Ken Palensky.

Seng summed up his opinions of his team and the season by commenting , " Most of these boys have been playing together long enough to get some good hitting , pitching, catching and quickness on the field to win ballgames , and that ' s what we intend to do. "

"I fully expect to go undefeated and

gain

another

city championship," commented an excited Reserve Baseball Coach, Ken Wall. "We had the city Reserve championship last year. We could do it again!"

The whole idea behind Reserve Baseball is to work on the fundamentals, to teach the boys to play as a team, and to help the varsity.

Wall thinks there are other factors in Reserve Baseball in addition to winning. "None of the players are ready to display any outstanding abilities yet. We are just helping the boys grow and mature and back up the varsity squad," Wall said.

The players produced attentiveness and adaptability in their practices and games and so they lived up to a quality expected and found in former Rocket squads. "The overall attitude of the team is excellent! This typifies Northeast teams. Being at Northeast and being coach-able was the main strength of the team," continued Wall. "The kids at Northeast expect to do wel I."

Although a good share of Rocket supporters turned out for their games, Wall thought the Reserve Pep Club's presence would be greatly appreciated.

"The 1973 Track Team

will represent Northeast High school to the best of their ability, " commented Track coach Max Hester as he cited prospects for the spring season. " We have a very young team ," continued Hester , " but by the end of the season, they will be very competitive. "

With nine lettermen returning from last year ' s squad , and an experienced coaching staff, the '73 season could be one of the most memorable years for both trackmen and coach.

Usually, the distance runners carry the largest share of the load, but with only two runners returning in the mile and one in the two mile, the spotlight has turned to the short distances where five have returned and a new crop of sprinters await the cinder schedule.

The middle distances also have their share of stars which includes the only Rocket to compete in the state meet last year, Terry Novak. The 6' 3" junior placed fourth in the 880 yard run.

One of the early accomplishments by the team was a well balanced win in the Millard Invitational Relay meet. The Rocket Thinclads gained only two first places. The mile relay (composed of juniors Craig Mundt, Gary Gustofson, and Chuck Sales, and sophomore standout Paul Letcher, and the 480 yard low hurdle shuttle relay team (seniors Scott Packett and Bruce Maske and junior teammates Mike Kubes and Jim Miller) broke a meet record in the time of 56.7.

Cold, rainy weather and a touch of the flu seemed to be the only factors that might keep the squad from being one of the top track teams in the state.

"('Inexperienced? Our first and second place finishes will show how inexperienced we are," - a Rocket Thinclad.

"I feel we are

more organized this year , plus there are more faculty members helping in terms of officiating and supervising, " stated lntramurals sponsor Terry Monk, when discussing the 1972-1973 Boy's Intramural program.

The age old problem of insufficient facilities faced the lntramurals sponsor. "We have approximately 200 boys who have participated and we definitely need more facilities for the amount of teams that have been entered," Monk stated .

Members of the program found it a good way to participate in their favorite sport without going through the hassle of everyday varsity practice.

"The participants are the individuals who enjoy competition and aren't good enough or don't want to play in the usual program which is more publicized," said Reg Berka, touchdown passing leader in the Junior-Senior division.

lntramurals offer all boys a chance to participate even though they may be lacking in ability. Interest was concentrated mostly in the major

sports, football and basketball, but the program also included Volleyball, body conditioning, slow-pitch softball, and golf. These sports were open to anyone who took the opportunity to form a team or was lucky enough to be chosen by someone who had taken the leadership upon himself.

This was not always the case as there were too many Basketbal I teams entered in the Junior-Senior division for the facilities that were available. In November, the officials got together and drew names of the twelve teams that they cou Id ac-

commodate and placed them in either the American or National League. Pat Johnston's team ended up with the championship over the football jocks in their division and Doug Rotthaus' team was victorious over Tom Hanna's sophomore team in the basketball match in late February.

Warmer temperatures brought "spring fever" to the Rocket competitive spirit and softbal I jocks and golf freaks got their chance to go outside and pursue a favorite spring sport through the intramural program.

crop of golfers was led into the 1973 · season this spring bytwo-year letter. man Tom Westover . With only one other returning varsity golfer , Coach Jack Mueller hoped that Westover and Junior letterman Vic Carder would l ead the Rockets to a f i ne showing in the state tournamen t. Junior Scott F l etche r was the only other member of th i s year ' s team , that saw action in a varsity mee t last year.

The fourth spot on the team was filled by Junior Glen Sullivan , who didn ' t participate in any varsity meets last year , adding to the inexperience of the squad

I"The willingness

to help each other was the main strength of the 1972 Girls' Varsity swim team," explained Miss Ann Struthers, head swim coach.

Even though the girls swam to a disappointing 1-6 season, they all seemed to improve over last year. With only two girls returning, Miss Struthers described the team as having a "good season."

Some of the outstanding individuals on the team were Linda Toohey, Sharon Tracy, Lori Rosenberry and Kim Kidd specializing in the 200 yard free-style relay. Pam Powers excel led in the 50 yard breaststroke as did Shannon Burley in the 200 yard freestyle.

"The team members are beginning to realize what it means to be a competitive athlete and understand how hard you have to work," commented Miss Struthers. "There were great personal accomplishments during the season. The girls, at first, did not put forth full effort because they did not fully understand the role of a 'competitive athlete'. However, I think we have begun to master this and we hope to have a better season next year."

"The first year

of Girls' Varsity volleyball brought a team with a lot of potential," commented Coach Nancy Bishop.

During its first year in existence, the team claimed a 5-5 record. The girls took second place in the AllCity meet and third place in the Trans-Nebraska and District meets.

"The girl's came from sloppy, 'just anyway playing' to a definite organization of playing their offense and defense," noted Mrs. Bishop

"Our main strength in the season was our serving. Senior Olivia Gomez helped us out in this area. In one game she served 13 out of 15 points."

The girls described their season as "encouraging."

"We all enjoy the game. We try to help each other and I think we work well together," remarked team member Denise Scharton.

Commenting on the support that the team received, Mrs. Bishop summarized her feelings for the season. "The girls played well, and they have a lot of good talent. But, as a lot of minor sports' coaches claim, we do not get the support the team deserves. Girls' sports are coming more and more into focus; The supportof these teams need to be emphasized a little bit more."

"Girls don't

realize what they are missing when they don't participate in Girl's Intramurals," commented Sherry Landenberger. "All the equipment and facilities needed to participate are here and by not participating, a girl just cheats herself of a great opportµnity to have fun."

This year's girls' intramural program, as in other years, began with the start of school. Many different types of activities were slated on tt,js y~ar's calendar. New activities ~ere planned in bowling, tennis and golf along with activities in basketball, swimming and volleyball.

The Lincoln Northeast Girl's Intramural basketball team, coached by Mrs. Vietta Short, took first place in the city tournament. This team was formed from a group of girls from all three classes. They played other teams from Northeast and then went on to take the city title.

"It really is kind • of maddening when girls put down this program," noted one participating member. "They don't realize it, but this is where the majority of the girls' competitive sport programs start."

Af, in recent years, girls could receive credit hours for participating in this program. There were no qualifications stated for participation other than a signature from the girls' parents and doctor.

As one girl stated, "The only thing that is different about this program is that you are competing on a team basis, but not for a school title. It's more of a personal thing. You can get whatever you want out of the program."

•"Track is one of my

This sentiment was shared by ap-: proximately forty other girls as the Girls' Varsity Track program ggt off to the start of \ts seconq year at Linc9ln Northeast. This year's tean,, coached by Mrs. Nancy aishop, was not inexperienced a~ tt,ey saw all but three returning members.

11 1'think we will have a pretty good team this year," noted one member. "We took first place in the city meet

last year. We lost our girls that Wt3re on the discus and shot put. It's going tp be kinq of hard repl~cing them because they µs.µal!y gave ~s twef}ty-f!ve p~irtts El meet. I still feel we will have a great team because we have got som.e -SQR·h.~mpres a~d juniors corning up that are ·showing al9t of pote,nti'a!." - •

The girls proved to b~ exp~ri• enoed with returning member Jenr,i Cockrell. Jennj placed fourth in the 50 yard dash in the state meet in Grand Island last spring. Also leading the team were the returning members of the 440 yard relay.

"The season really looks exciting," stated Marilyn Engelage. ''We lost some good members but so did the other schools. I'm sure it will all even out. It's going to take a lot of hard work, but in the end, it's always worth it."

"Being on the Girls'

Gymnastics team has given me a chance to learn about the role you play as a participant in competitive sports. It also has given me a chance to get experience on the different types of gymnastic equipment," explained Peggy Liddick, member of the Girls' Varsity Gymnastics team.

For the first time this year, Girls' Gymnastics was added to the Lincoln Public Schools. At the beginning of the year, it was decided that Girls' Gymnastics would be on a trial basis in Lincoln and Omaha. Because of this, there were no state-wide meets. The girls competed only within the Lincoln Public Schools.

During its first year at Northeast, the Girls' Gymnastics program showed that there was a great deal of talent and interest backing it. Sophomore Peggy Liddick was named the top all-around gymnast in the city of Lincoln, Sharon Tracy placed several times in dual meets and placed third on the beams in the city meet. Ronnell Kitchen also • placed in the city meet, coming in second on the unevens.

"The team this year was compiled mostly of sophomores and juniors," commented one member. "How-

ever, thts is good because next year we should have the experience and the know-how on the things we lacked in this year."

Mrs. Joy Callahan, Girls' Varsity Gymnastics coach was sited as one of the main strengths of the team. "She's new to coaching but so are we to the sport. She gave each one of us a sense of belonging," noted one member.

"People may not

want to admit it , but advertising effects everyone. We are constantly surrounded with the popular slogans released by the media and there is always that pressure to buy a certain product because it is better than another , " commented ROCKET Business Manager Wendy Hanna.

There was a stronger push on this year ' s advertising staff to sell more ads than in previous years. Along with this , the advertising staff had an unusually hard time selling ads to the members of the Northeast community.

" I really don ' t know why it was so much harder to sell ads ," stated Karen Berka , a member of the ad staff. " We had an inexperienced staff, and it took a while to train the new members. However , the returning staff members had a difficult time also. It seems as though people are getting tired of the push towards advertising. "

Besides the actual selling of ads , the staff kept busy laying out their pages, writing captions , and billing the customers.

" It gets kind of hectic when everyone is going somewhere different. However, I learned a great deal working under deadlines and getting out and meeting the public ," explained staff member Deonne Fuehring.
