Northeast High 1983 Yearbook

Seniors Work Hard/Play Hard

To make sure their senior year was LIKE NOTHING ELSE, the class of 1983 assumed their leadership roles on the athletic field, in musical groups and in the classroom . Many Northeast teams found their way to state finals. The band was able to add more awards to their already large collection. And students worked harder than ever academically. No other class left their mark on Northeast High as did this graduating class

The senior year holds expectations and surprises. For some students it is a year of partying and easy classes. For others, the senior year is filled with college prep courses preparing for the hard work ahead in college.

This last year in high school often becomes the final barrier between youth and the real world . While the twelfth grade year is filled with plenty of fun and crazy times that only high school life can hold, the senior faces more decisions regarding his / her future than ever before. Seniors ask themselves, "Do I want to go to college?" "If so, which college?" "Should I j9in the service, get married, or work full time if I can find a job ?"

The answers to these questions are just a part of the adult responsibilities that have to be faced upon graduation .

On the following fifteen pages take one last look at those special seniors who met their challenges and made their year like nothing else.

Our senior year-we finally made it!

In It For The Money

While many Americans found themselves out of work in 1983, many Northeast students were lucky to find and keep part-time jobs. By the time a student reaches high school, that five dollar allowance from mom and dad just doesn't cover the expenses anymore. Car payments, gas for the car, an activity ticket, yearbook, dating and entertainment are just some of the expenses the high school student faces. Steve Burbank, a senior, works part-time at Wendy's. When asked why he works, Steve replied, "I work for the money. I have to pay for my college education so I am saving now." Senior Rachel Ewert works for the same reason. "I am working to pay for my college education." "But," she added, "I find it hard to save the money I make." Others like Rachel find it hard to save their money, as they want to have as much fun this year as possible.

One of the biggest decisions that seniors face each year is the decision of which college to attend Throughout the school year, representatives came to Northeast from visiting colleges and universities to recruit students. Senior Amy Squire attended a meeting with a representative from Kearney State College and said," There was a small group of students at the meeting I went to. The representative answered most of our questions and spoke with us individually about out college majors I learned a lot about the school. "

In recent years, more Northeast graduates have applied to college. Counselor Marge Billings stated that, " College enrollment is up. Technical schools like Southeast Community College are really up. One of the most popular courses is definitely computer training. If a student applied in the beginning of 1983 for a computer course at SCC, they wouldn't get in until the fall of 1985."

Favorite Things

Rrrring! That's the 8:50 bell. Down the halls, lockers begin to open up as students arrive at school and prepare for class. But wait! Wasn't that Albert Einstein, and Jerry Garcia, and Bo Derek behind those locker doors? The answer is yes Creative Northeast students have taken their otherwise dull, utilitarian lockers and graced the insides with pictures, posters, and drawings of their favorite people. Memo boards, mirrors, clocks and calendars can also be found inside the lockers. Since lockers are a place to meet friends as well as a place to stash books, students naturally want to add a personal touch to a space that is theirs for a year. Wall paper and carpeting cover some walls of students' lockers although the administration requests that no permanent decorations be used. ·

There is only one success-to be able to spend your life in your own way.

There are smiles, laughter, and tears behind us, but we're looking forward to what's ahead. Look out world-here comes the class of_ 1983.

Some juniors will do anything to get out of Algebra 3-4.

Caught in the Middle

Responsibility and participation may be the words that can best be used to describe the past year at Northeast. For many juniors the year was spent showing their school spirit and enthusiasm by taking part in the many clubs, sports and other activities offered to them this year.

Preparing for the future kept them busy in and out of school. Many found it necessary to get jobs, which along with homework, left them with little spare time. Since jobs are hard to come by, most students found themselves working in fast food restaurants, busing tables, or sacking groceries in supermarkets.

During their junior year most students try to get most of their required classes out of the way so that they will have more free time their senior year to take electives. "I think this year has been, and will be, my hardest year in high school," stated junior Rene Bomberger.

Looking back on their sophomore year, juniors began to realize how much they had changed. They had slowly begun to mature, and started to appreciate the importance of academic achievement, sportsmanship, and future goals.

What is it to be a junior? Being a junior is like nothing else It is finally being able to play varsity football. Steve Chick commented, "Football was a lot of fun. Unexpectingly we made it to the State Championship and we deserved it. Maybe next year we can win it all." Being a junior is proving to the seniors that they can feel secure turning over the school after graduation to young adults ready to accept the challenge of setting an example for the underclassmen. Being a junior is feeling the school pride when the Northeast basketball team beats their biggest rival. Being a junior is finally being able to drive and going out to lunch every day to consume thousands of tacos and gallons of pepsi. Being a junior is realizing that in only one year they will be graduating as the class of 1984.

The Magical Year

Whatever way you want to look at it, the first year in high school can certainly be termed as "Like Nothing Else." There is much more freedom as opposed to junior high, but also some added responsibility, too. For instance, there is more freedom in selecting your courses and more variety to choose from, but those choices must be based upon the serious question of what you want to do for the rest of your life . It is a very lucky person who knows exactly what he wants his future to be as a sophomore. But these shadowy doubts are buried for the time being by a wave of excitement and discovery. After all, graduation is two whole years away, isn't it? Let's have fun! And what better place than Northeast?

These next few pages are designed to capture the spirit of the sophomore and some elements that make this year so magical. Although there are not casual pictures of everyone, there are some. Although the stories do not reflect your individual experiences, we hope they create a general mood or feeling that will allow you to add your own details. These pages cannot even pretend to cover everything in your sophomore year. They are not meant to. Rather, they are a key to your mind. We hope that as you look at the pictures, read the quotations and stories, they will unlock thousands of other memories of your first year at Northe~st. Memories that are too precious to be observed in a mere picture or stated in a few crude words. Memories that can only be felt by you. Memories that are "Like Nothing Else."

The sophomore hall buzzes with excitement as the clock strikes three.

That Magic Number

When a kid turns six teen, the whole world changes. For some unexplainable reason, sixteen has been chosen as that magical age when childhood is lost and adulthood begins. Awkward clumsiness has been replaced by agility and beauty, and the young people look at the adult world with shining eyes, lots of smiles, and new ideas to share with the older generation.

Here in Nebraska, this magic number takes on an even more important aspect because sixteen is the age when a person may obtain a driver's license.

A car can open up new avenues loaded with opportunities just waiting to be taken, but the young driver had also better pay close attention to the avenue he's on, or else he might have an awfully short trip. There are a lot of new responsibilities that come along for the ride with a license, such as the car, himself /herself, the passengers, and other automobilists on the road. Because car accidents cause so many untimely teenage deaths, driver education courses have become a primary means for teaching young people to drive safely.

That Magic Date

"Oh, if only I had the guts to ask her out!"

"Every time he smiles at me I just melt!"

Have you ever had these kind of feelings? Many sophomores did as they started their first year at Northeast and started dating. They can now drive, and there are a lot of new people to get to know and places to see.

Although a few students do go steady, the majority choose to date around or not to date at all. There are advantages and disadvantages to each viewpoint If a person chooses to date around, he/she can get to know a lot of different people, although it's hard sometimes to be honest and control those feelings of jealousy when those special people date others too. However, controlling those feelings of jealousy and learning to be honest can really help a person to grow and mature

Dating-it's exciting, fun, and one of the most rewarding experiences that high school students participate in. It takes a mature person· to be able to date wisely and conscientiously-not dating for what that person is, but for who that person is.

Stepping in time

Marching Band members outdid themselves this year as 21 students made it to All-State. Director Jeff Klintberg said this was the largest number ever for Northeast.

The ability of the band was endless . Members competed in Grand Island at the Harvest of Harmony Parade Field Competition, The Plattsmouth Marching Contest, and the L.P.S. Contest. All of the efforts were rewarded by

superior ratings.

At the Lincoln Public School Marching Contest, Northeast received the highest score of all AA bands.

When the band went to Grand Island to the Harvest of Harmony Parade, it placed fourth out of 104 bands.

Klintberg felt his band worked extremely well together while putting forth an excellent effort in all they did.

Group involvement

To be a member of Northeast's Stage Band, students had to audition for a part, then face the question of whether or not they were good enough to be selected .

Stage Band met every day during sixth period where Director Jeff Klintberg introduced new styles and music. "Being a member of Stage Band is like

being on a team. Every one has to put a lot of hard work and effort into everything they do to make it a success," stated band member Ross Olsbo

One of the year's highlights was the Swing Choir-Stage Band show which was held in the spring. The band performed at other places, including the concerts at school, junior highs, conventions, and many contests.

Playing in tune

What does being a member of Orchestra mean? It means being a part of a group that works hard and devotes a lot of time and effort in to being good. This year's orchestra class accomplished this and much more.

The orchestra class practiced every day during 5th period under the direction ofJeff Klint berg. There, they would keep going over and over the music until they would get it right. They strived for perfection.

A lot of the members of the orchestra were involved in another group called Youth Symphony. This group was compiled of students from all of the high schools in Lincoln. This gave them a chance to be able to learn things faster. This, in turn, benefited the Orchestra class.

Two of the more outstanding members of the Orchestra this year were, seniors Connie Bishop and Bonnie Hansen. These girls have been in Orchestra since their sophomore year and have made an outstanding contribution

The director of the Orchestra is Jeff ' Klintberg. Klintberg works individually with members when it is necessary to make sure they know their music down to the last note.

"Orchestra is a lot of fun, because it is something that you work very hard at, but in the end you can see the results, and that makes it all worthwhile," said junior cello player Julie Lee.

The Orchestra played at many times through out the year. They played at school concerts, contests, and they attended a workshop at Wesleyan.

Orchestra class allows Lorne Kassebaum the opportunity to practice his string bass. Practice, practice, practice, is what made Connie Bishop an excellent clarinet player.

An upcoming concert means hard practice during class.

New uniforms Bring appeal

In November, the Northeast band department held auditions for concert band In the fall, the Rocket marching band performs at Seacrest Field. During the basketball season, the concert band is back again for performances at Pershing. What is the difference between the two groups, you ask?

The differences are numerous. First of all, concert band is a stationary band while the marching band thrives on what its name implies, marching.

The marching band is one very large group, while the concert band splits into two groups. These two separate groups, called the black band and the white band, take turns performing at Pershing.

What necessitates splitting the band into two groups? For one thing, Northeast had the largest marching band in Lincoln, so it becomes almost a necessity to split the concert band into two divisions to alleviate confusion. Also, having two groups means that members have more freedom. If there is a conflict ~ith performances, members can switch with someone from the other division

New uniforms were a highlight of the 1982-83 school year. The uniforms arrived in March, and were worn for the first time at a March 7 concert. One student called unpacking the uniforms the "starting of a brand new era."

In addition to football and basketball games, the band performed at a number of concerts and contests throughout the year. "I had a great bunch of kids involved in band this year," Director Jeff Klintberg said. "Band takes a lot of work, and the kids weren't afraid of work "

Concert Choir is a group composed of juniors and seniors who combine all of their singing talents to produce a group that can sing well together, and be proud to go out in the public and say that they go to Northeast.

This year's Concert Choir was directed by Duane Nichols, and accompanied by Jim Koudelka

The group practiced during 6th period every day With the help of Mr. Nichols , they turned out to be a fine choir.

One of the big shows was the Spring Musical, "Babes in Arms " The musical was about a group of apprentices all tryin g to become stars and at the same time save a theatre house The choir spent many strenuous hours on this but their time was well spent.

Thi s year the choir got to go on a special trip. The y traveled to Kansas City to participate in a contest at Worlds of Fun After they sang, they got to spend the day in the park. It was a mem o rable event for all who participated

Other events that the choir sang for were school concerts, a contest at Wesleyan, the annual Choral Festival, and they a lso sang at the State Capital.

Shelly Bartzatt, who is an alto in concert choir, said, " In Concert Choir, you learn to work with a lot of people as a group, and you also ge t a chance to make a lot of new friends ."

Another year of success

For the second year in a row, the recently added Meistersingers was a success

The gro up is under the direction of Duane Nichols . They met during 5th period every day throughout the year to practice for upcoming concerts.

One unique thing about this group is that the y sing all of their music a cappella None of the other groups at Northeast do this . In order for them to be able to do this, they have to have good, strong, powerful singers.

This group's main performance this year was the Madrigal Dinner. This is an event the whole group enjoys The Meistersingers did a fine job, and provided joy ful entertainment for all those who attended the dinner.

The group also sang at school concerts.

This year was a good year for the Meistersingers, and it ended up that their second year turned out to be as much of a success as their first year.

Northeast's Swing Choir entered its seventh year in 1982-83, and continued .its tradition of excellence.

Out of town concerts, three contests , (including one jazz contest), several community performances and many long hours of practice created a busy singing schedule for the members.

The 18-member group, plus two pianists and one drummer, met every day fifth period. They also had several extra practices, which included coming in after school, 7:00 a.m. practices, evening choreography sessions and meeting on vacation days. One vacation day the group practiced six hours to learn a set for the jazz contest, and they were rewarded by placing third in the prestigous event. "It was hard to practice on a school night for two hours and then get up in the morning and be to school by 7:00 the next day," said soprano Dawn Zoller.

The group performed mainly to soft rock, jazz, and other upbeat styles of music. They topped off the year by putting together a special show with the stage band, which combined many different styles of music and gave them a chance to show off their talent on the Northeast stage.

Th is year's music department was once again headed by Duane Nichols, and Mary Oestmann The chorus classes were divided into two main sections, a girl's chorus, and a mixed chorus.

The two singing groups performed a number of times for parents, the public, a nd fellow students The music they chose to perform ranged from classical to popular.

Several choral concerts were hosted during the year, and weeks of preparation went into the 1983 Choral Festival held in February.

" I think chorus classes give students the incentive to try out for the other musical possibilities that exist at Lincoln Northeast , " commented music director Duane Nichols . " Music is a way of expression, and I feel more students should become

Chorus is by far a favorite at Northeast. Sophomore Tony Ray stated, " Chorus at Northeast has been a good experience for me. Along with helping to prepare me for the other groups I intend to try out for, it gave me the chance to enjoy myself and have a good time singing."

Three of a kind

Triple Trio had many performances, including East Park Plaza, school performances and activities not dealing with school.

Triple Trio is not only a singing group but can also be a great learning process for the girls They have the chance to be involved together as a group, while also learning to help each other and build lasting friendships.

There are 9 members of Triple Trio this year. Sherry Bartzatt, Karrie Buresh, Chris Curtis, Sherry Krause, Julie Lee, Jenda Radford, Geri Reeves,

Laurie Whitehead, and Kris Kubes made up the group. Accompanying them on the piano was Kris Lobb.

Sherry Bartzatt felt being in Triple · Trio was a lot of fun and she also built many new friendships during the year. Sherry also said she would like to continue on in music when she goes to college

"The most important part in the success of this year ' s Triple Trio was that all of the girls got along and our voices blended well together," said Julie.

Being a member of Chamber Singers means having to devote time and effort into making something that has a good end result. The members this year worked hard to achieve that end result.

This ye a r's Chamber Singers group was directed by Mary Oestmann, and was accompanied by Barb Johnson.

The group practiced every day during 4th period Mrs Oestmann made sure that the group understood what it was doing, and she would also listen to their ideas so that the end result was a group effort.

This group's big performance was the Rock Show. There were a lot of solos by members of the group. The group worked long and hard on this show, and it turned out to be all worthwhile.

Other performances that the group had this year were school concerts, an appearance at the State Capital, the annual soup supper, and other various sites in Lincoln

The end result from this group was a good one which can hopefully be carried into the next year.

Practice Makes perfect

Horizons is a select group of 32 girls, who sing and perform at musical events throughout the year. The group is headed by Mary Oestmann, and accompanist Jim Koudelka. The 1982-83 school year was spent busily learning new forms, and various styles of music, as well as improving voice, and performing outside of school.

"There is always something new to learn about music," commented junior Traci Huss.

This year's activities included a number of concerts performed on the Lincoln Northeast stage, as well as concerts performed at Gateway, the University of Nebraska, and a concert for the residents at the Bethany Center. A Jazz and Pop Concert was also given, and was followed by a covered dish dinner. The Choral Festival was also attended by the 32 girls, and they participated with the other musical groups from Lincoln and surrounding areas. "This year's Horizons was an exceptional group," exclaimed Oestmann. "The cooperation was good. They listened, and you c'ouldn't ask for better voices." Horizons-Bl

Practice is an important part of making a group like Horizons work.

Performing style

The 1982-83 school year was a busy one for the Lincoln Northeast twirling squad The squad consisted of four returning seniors, and two new juniors.

This year the twirlers not only marched with the band, but also performed as an auxiliary squad. Performances at Pershing were scheduled so both Star Strutters and twirlers could perform on the same nights. "It was really nice to have both squads performing at the games," commented squad member Pam Parde . "I n the past a lot of conflicts came up about who was going to perform at what games. This year that problem was solved."

A new policy on solo twirlers was initiated by this year's sponsor Jeff Klintberg. This year no one single solo twirler was elected. If a twirler wished to perform a solo routine, approval from Mr. Klintberg was necessary.

Captains for this year were Jaci Carr for the summer and football season, and Pam Parde for the basketball season. "This year we were much more organized, a lot busier and added more tricks with higher difficulties to our routines," said Jaci Carr.

As for competition events, this year ' s twirlers attended a state -wide contest and took first place as a senior twirling team

Pressur e Builds

As the school starts reaching an end, pressure builds on the yearbook staff. Deadline s roll around much quicker than expected

Club Editor Cindy Lesoing felt that the club section was very hard to complete as the clubs weren't as active as past years, so pictures were hard to get and it was also difficult to provide adequate coverage

Jacki Wilke, sports staff, felt deadlines kept coming up and everyone left their work until the last minute "It was a new experience and I felt very proud when the yearbook was completed," commented Jacki.

Many juniors on the staff said - they feel the Yearbook will be much easier to complete next year as they now realize some of the problems they will face

Keeping the School informed

The Northeastern staff made the newspaper more interesting than ever by improving with every issue and always getting to the root of the story .

Reporter Lora Jones said being on the staff has been a great experience. One major learnin g experience for the staff was a convention in Chicago. They attended many seminars and cl a sses to improve their writing skills.

"Chicago was a lot of fun and I think I came back with a lot of ideas, " said reporter Marti Gallagher.

Creating ideas

Art Club kept busy this year by having bake sales, car washes and many other activities that allowed them to earn lots of money for the club.

The members of Art Club were Marion Boide, Cathy Coyne, Marti Gallagher, Shannon Gillan, Todd Greuter, Lori Griepenstroh, Randy Hanssen, Kathy Keller, Margarita Perez, RoseMary Scanlon, Laurie Whitehead, and Bob Wiese.

" Being in Art Club is a real fun experience," said Marti Gallagher. "I've been able to put my talent to work and make friends at the same time."

"The kids this year have been great. They have a lot of enthusiasm and they put a great deal of effort into everything they did," said Art Club sponsor Sharon Cech.

The main purpose of this group is to make people understand the beauty of the Arts

Margarita Perez said she was very impressed with the ability of all the members of the club and how much effort they put forth in each project they endured. She said this is an experience that she will always remember.

Taking time to care

"It's time we stand up and be accounted for." Those were the words of this year ' s Red Cross sponsor Betty Erickson. "We have a really good thing going, and it's time we let everyone know it," Erickson said of the group.

The Red Cross is making its debut in the Northeast Rocket this year. This is the first year since 1975 that the club has decided to fund a page. " The biggest problem Red Cross has is the lack of publicity we get," commented president Lou Siefker. "No one wants to join Red Cross if they don't know what it's all about. So, we've decided it's time they find out."

The main purpose of Red Cross is to get students to realize the importance of good health and how it affects them and their community

This year's Red Cross activities consisted of a range of different opportunities for its members. The first took place November 1, during the Great American Smokeout. The day was designed to help the average American smoker quit for a day. Red Cross members were given stickers with the slogans "Kiss Me I Don't Smo~e", and "Do it for Yourself", written on them. Members were encouraged to dispense the stickers and provide support to those sticking to their promise not to smoke According to a poll taken by the American Red Cross 80,000 Americans quit smoking on that day, and 14 percent continued not to smoke after that .

The blood mobile was another activity sponsored by the Red Cross. In this activity, the Northeast Student Council also became involved The mobile was designed to get students (over 17), their relatives, parents and friends to donate blood. The mobile was a big success and Red Cross plans to include it in next year's schedule

Being a smaller group, Red Cross often helped other groups with deas and projects, as well as asking for volunteers to help with activities like selling valentines.

"All in all it has been a good year for the Red Cross," commented Erickson "My only hope for next year is to see greater student involvement "

Youth in action

Providing a link between the faculty and students, this year's Student Council created an atmosphere "like nothing else" at LNE

Having a group of young adults to serve the school and the community gave students at Northeast a better perspective of ways to improve the school and the surrounding environment.

President of this year's council , Clay Buell, provided a creative mind and much energy to the council. Assisting the president , the other officers provided dynamic leadership and assistance to the council and the student body.

Other officers consisted of Lisa Jordal, vice president; Ruth Cooke , secretary; and Jichelle Rystrom, treasurer This year ' s sponsor was Dave Strange

Along with weekly meetings, the Student Council was kept busy with numerous activities this year. The biggest consisted of raising money to erect a Lincoln Northeast marquee on the corner of 63rd and Adams. Money was raised in many different ways Stu-Co sponsored dances, held a bake sale, sold candy canes and added a new twist by introducing a computer dating service as a Valentines treat. "It's amazing how well people can cooperate and accomplish something when they set a goal and work for it," commented senior Brad Buckner.

The council was not only involved with the marquee. The council also once again sponsored the annual student exchange. Council members were chosen to spend an entire day at one of the other high schools in Lincoln, while students from other schools were asked to spend the day at Northeast . " I think that the student exchange is a really good way to expand your social perspective," exclaimed junior Jim Mahoney. " I mean how many times have you heard someone say ' I wonder what it would be like to go to school there?' The exchange gives students a chance to find out "

Once again, Pep Club and N-Club combined to make Northeast's Homecoming a huge successl

The festivities began with an enthusiastic pep rally on the morning of September 30. Those chosen to be honored as the 1982 Homecoming royalty were announced at the rally

The royalty, as in past years, consisted of first and second attendants, and the King and Queen Second attendants were Scott Deines and Laura Hitz. Lindy Lebsack and Matt Holt were named first attendants, while Clay Buell and Karen Moore received the honor of King and Queen.

The evening's activities started with a 20-6 football victory over Papillion. The game was played under rainy skies and on a muddy field, and that caused some problems with the halftime ceremonies The soggy field prevented the band and the Pep Club from participating in the program.

For just $6, the top 40 tunes, punkrock, the bunny hop, and th~ theme song, "The One You Love," could be heard at the annual Homecoming dance.

"I thought Homecoming was neat and exciting, and it is something I will always remember." - Laura Hitz

Love lift us up

Once again this year, as in past years, the Candlelight Ball was a success. The girls who were on this years committee were Shelly Bartzatt, Sherry Bartzatt, Becky Carver, Tina Dill, Shelley Dughman, Stacey Floyd, Traci Huss, Lora Jones, Julie Lee, Tari Lyon, Chris McAdams, Didi Merriman, Renee Poell, Sharon Riggert, Diane Smejdir, and Head Hostess Sherry Kahler.

The theme for this year's dance was "Love Lift Us Up" which was taken from the movie, "An Officer and a Gentleman."

The dance was held in the Great Plains Room at the UNL East Campus Union.

There were approximately 150 couples from Northeast who attended the dance. All of them seemed to enjoy themselves and have a real good time.

Head Hostess Sherry Kahler said," I think that everything went well, and it seemed like everyone was having a real good time." She said that if she -could do one thing differently, it would be to get started earlier with the organization.

The girls who were on the committee this year picked sophomore girls who will have the responsibility for making the Candlelight Ball a success again next year.

Connot inspires FFA

"If the opportunity would ever arise, I would enjoy being a farmer ," said FFA President Doug Garrison.

Future Farmers of America teaches students about agriculture, and gives them a better knowledge of farming for possible future use

This year's group was composed of about 18 students. There were even a couple of girls who got involved in the club this year. There was also a ne w sponsor for the group, Randy Connot.

Some of the things the group did this year included land surveys, bake sales , and national FFA week. A few of the members went to a national convention in Kansas City .

Hopefully, there will always be an interest in FF A, and maybe the club can expand its membership next year.

The teams for debate this year were Brezenski-Souliere, Dale-Dominy and Jashi-Svoboda . Jashi-Svoboda finished undefeated this year and qualified for the quarterfinals at a Southeast tournament.

Coach Jack Mueller was very happy about the debate team this year and feels it's one of the best teams he has had in a few years. " They have a lot of enthusiasm and always gave 100 % ," said Mueller

The members of the 1982-83 debate team include Mike Brezenski, Christine Collins, Mark Dale, Lisa Dominy, Greg Grosshans, Brian Harrison, Kristine Hoffer, Nikhi Joshi, Joe Lutes, James Phillips, Ronald Souliere, James Sundeen, Brian Svoboda, and John Wrasse.

"The Diary of Anne Frank"---

On November 18 and 19, Northeast's drama department presented this year's annual all-school play. The choice for this year's play was "The Diary of Anne Frank," dramatized by Frances Goodrich and Albert Hackett.

The story, which is based on a true life tragedy of a young Jewish girl and her Jewish family, takes place in Amsterdam during World War II and the time immediately thereafter.

The lead role of Anne Frank was played by senior Ruth Cooke. "It was a real experience playing the lead in the play. I was kind of scared at first, but once the play got underway I got really involved with my character," Cooke said

"He has the most beautiful whiskers," mimic k s Anne (Ruth Cooke) as she pokes fun at Pe ter.

"Plays aren't all fun and games," seems to be the message from director Jay Chipman to his assistants, Brian and Mark Frantz.

This year's fall play was the first at Lincoln Northeast to be directed by the new drama teacher Jay Scott Chipman. " The kids at Northeast are really great," commented Chipman. " I must admit there were times when I was ready to throw in the towel and times when I was pulling my hair out But when that curtain went up opening night , I knew all the trouble and confusion had been worth it "

The play, presented in the round, attracted an audience of a pproximately 250 on both nights, and w a s v er y well received ·

Lu Ann Hampton Laverty Oberlander. What a name, right? Yes And what a show.

This year, the drama department presented a special double feature for the All-School spring production. Lu Ann Hampton Laverty Oberlander and Patio were the two plays performed.

Both plays are set deep in the heart of Texas, and are fast-paced modern comedies. Along with the learning of lines and blocking, the cast also had to worry about the strong southern drawl they used to make their characterizations more believable.

Lu Ann Hampton Laverty Oberlander is the story of a young girl growing up in a small Texas town The audience meets Lu Ann in 1953 as the head cheerleader and follows her careers as a beauty operator and a Welcome Wagon Hostess. Lu Ann, played by Senior Denise Bailey, charmed the audience and also made them l<:!,ugh out loud.

The second feature, Patio, concerns a patio farewell party being given by a young woman for her sister. The sisters, portrayed by Wendy Derowitsch and Ruth Cooke, are eccentric , and kept the audience laughing.

This year's varsity cheerleading squad was sponsored by Maryann Spahni. Mrs Spahni met with the cheerleaders 7th period to share ideas with them, and to teach them sportsmanship and pride for Lincoln Northeast High School.

The squad practiced every morning during the summer to become the best that they could, and to prepare themselves for the upcoming year.

The girls attended a cheerleading camp in the summer also. This camp taught them skills for being a better cheerleader, and it also taught them a lot of new cheers

The biggest responsiblity of the squad was to attend all majo r and minor sporting events

Another job they were responsi b le for was planning the pep rallies Doing this

can be a lot of fun, but it is also one big pain. The cheerleaders put their minds together and came up with good, fun rallies throughout the year.

"I had a lot of fun being a Varsity Cheerleader, but I am sorry to see it coming to an end, " said Chris Nehe

The cheerleaders also had a couple of selling projects to raise money for the squad. They used part of the money to sponsor the Kick-Off Dance during football season

The squad is also responsible for teaching the juniors and the sophomores the cheers so that they have a chance of becoming a varsity cheerleader.

The girls spent a lot of time after school making door signs, hall signs, and locker signs which would promote school spirit.

A time out at East High allows the cheerleaders a chance to get the crowd fired up.

Hours of practice doing mounts paid off during this moment at

Doing what We do best

This year ' s reserve squad was made up of six girls who put all of their time and effort into making the y ea r a success

These 6 girls were Sh e ll y Bartzatt, Shelley Dughman, Diane Kloke, Lynn Maul, Didi Merriman, and Diane Smejdir.

The reserve squad was sponsored by Maryann Spahni. The squad learned from experience, and Mrs Spahni was there to help them every step of the way

The squad attended a cheerleading clinic in Sioux City, Iowa during the summer. This, plus all of their summer morning sessions, helped them to grow as a group and to establish long lasting friendships.

The squad performed at the sophomore tea early this fall, where they introduced pride and spirit to the girls who would start attending Northeast.

The girls sold candy bars, soap, hot plates, and mugs in order to raise money to help pay for their uniforms.

One of the more exciting things that the squad did this year was to sponsor a pep-rally with the pep-club officers. The theme of the rally was "the Valley Girls visit Northeast." The rally turned out to be a big success

Striving for perfection

The LNE Star Strutters this year were "Like Nothing Else " They competed in The Harvest of Harmony Parade, the LPS Tournament and at many other events.

Only three juniors were selected for drill team this year. They were Tina Dill, Geri Reeves , and Stacy Floyd Stacy said her most memorable moment in Star Strutters was receiving a superior rating at their first competition in Grand Island.

This year's drill team put a lot of work into their routines They practiced after schoo l from 3:15-4:30 and many times practiced in the morning. Practice wasn't the only key to the success.of this

group Their sponsor Sandi Genrich and co-sponsor Jeff Klintberg were a very important part in developing the potential of such a talented group of girls.

Drill team chose a captain, secretary, treasurer, and junior representative for football and basketball. During the football season those selected were: Captains Lynne Damke and Julie Aspergren; Secretary Deb Myers; Treasurer Wendi Wagner; and Junior Representative Stacy Floyd.

Tina Dill said, "A lot of hard work is put into being a Star Strutter but the friendships you make and the reward at the end of a performance is well worth the effort."

Spirit is our destiny

The 1982-83 Pep Club started its season out right, with brand-new sweaters. The old sweater had been around for 10 years , and they thought it was about time for a change.

The big money raising project was a new one, also. Instead of selling candy, the club sold key rings, tags and calendars They raised over $3,000 for the club Part of the money was used to pay for bus trips and parties The other part was put in a fund, which will probably be put to use somewhere around the school.

Pep Club was responsible for the royalty part of Homecoming, and they were completely in charge of the TurnAbout Dance. One idea was reintroduced at the Turn-A b out Dance th is year and that was to have a King of Hearts This year's King was senior D oug Kapeller. There were also two a tt endants , junior Jim Mahoney , and

sophomore Richard Hitz

Perhaps the biggest projec t in which the club took part in this year was Spirit Week. Each girl was responsible for picking a member of a sport, and doing nice things for them all week The week was then finished up with a Pep Club Officers / Reserve Cheerleaders rally. The rally proved to be a success.

Besides the new sweaters, there was also another change to the Pep Club this year. They had a new sponsor. This year ' s sponsor was Mrs Jan Strange, who learned the ropes of being a sponsor pretty fast.

One major problem that the Pep Club faced this year was an enrollmen t drop. The club started t he year out with about 125 members and ended up with only 50 The reason for the enrollment drop was just plain lack of interest. There were talks of turning the Pep Club into a Yell Club, but this idea never materialized .

Varsity Football Rockets answer gridiron challenge

After a 1-2 start, Northeast's football squad faced a monumental task of trying to salvage a respectable season out of a disastrous beginning Coach Bob Els' squad answered the challenge. Oh, how they answered the challenge

"We were in a situation where we needed a win , " Els said following backto-back losses to Fremont and Grand Island . The Rockets got that win with an impressive 32-7 triumph over Lincoln High.

The win over the Links started an awesome string of superb defensive performances by Northeast Defensive coach Bruce Reed's charges followed the one-touchdown effort from Lincoln High by limiting Papillion to six points, and shutting out Omaha Benson in 20-6 and 28-0 victories.

But the defense still had some cards up its sleeve, and they dealt a joker to city rival East High . Displaying some of the hardest hitting seen on Seacrest Field , Northe a st limited East to minus yardage for the game while posting a 190 win. "It was a fantastic effort. I have never seen anything like it," Els said of the team ' s defense.

Another fine defensive performance followed with a 7-3 win over Southeast, followed by a 21-9 verdict over Millard North.

The late season surge brought Northeast a spot in the state play-offs, and a familiar face, Grand Island, was first in line. While the defense again dominated in a 7 - 0 Northeast win, running back Dave Lowe grabbed some of the limelight with a 151-yard rushing effort on 18 carries. Although the Rockets mounted impressive yardage stats, the only s core of the game came when Matt Holt bulled over from the two-yard line in the second period.

The win over the Islanders meant that Northeast would be returning to Seacrest for the semi-final game against

Omah a N o rthwest.

F a ns who filled Seacrest got more than their money's worth as Northeast used a late rally to down Northwest, 139 Trailing 9-0 at halftime, Northeast needed a big play to get back into the game. They got it when Tony Burt blocked a Northwest punt in the third quarter, setting up a two-yard touchdown run by Holt. Jeff Vergith ' s extra point kick brought the Rockets to within two points with one quarter to play

A battle of defenses prevailed during most of the final period, but quarterback Ross Els engineered a gamewinning drive in the closing moments for the win Els completed a 28-yard pass to Doug Johnson on a fourth-and-eight situation to keep the drive alive, and two plays later the junior quarterback hit Doug Hohbein with a 30-yard strike to the Northwest three-yard line. That set the stage for Holt, who carried over from the one-yard line for the winning points

Just making it to the state finals was a fine feather in Northeast ' s cap after losing two of its first three games. In the finals , Northeast faced what many consider the best Nebraska high school football team in history, Omaha Westside The Warriors did little to prove people wrong, as they demolished Northeast's proud defense in a 34-0 win .

The loss didn't dampen Rocket feelings about the successful season "I thought we had an excellent season," Holt said "We played together as a team for something we really wanted " Holt , a leading defensive performer in the state, had nothing but praise for Westside. "They are an all-around excellent football team , " Holt said. "They are big and quick and they know how to put it together."

Northeast finished the season with a 9-3 record, and one win short of a state title

Gridders rebound for 3-3 mark

After opening the season with two losses, the Rocket reserves came back to win three straight games. The momentum carried Coach Bill Story's gridders into the city title game against Southeast, but the Knights were too much for the Rockets.

After an overtime loss to Fremont in the first game of the season, the Rockets dropped their second game also. However, the two losses were followed by two wins over Lincoln High and a vie-

tory over East. The win over the Spartan reserves extended Northeast's winning string over the East reserves to three years. Perhaps the most impressive win in the string came when the reserves blanked Lincoln High, 28-0. While the loss to Southeast for the city title was disappointing, Mark Craig kept the setback in perspective. "Southeast was just a good team. They knew what they were supposed to do all the time," Craig said.

Win over Links only soph highlight

The sophomore football team encountered a disappointing season that was highlighted by a 6-0 win over intercity rival Lincoln High. Cornerback Robbie Britton attributed the losing season to the lack of players on the team. "The sophomore team didn't have much depth because some members went up to reserves. That meant that some players had to play both offense and defense," said Britton.

The strength of the team was defense. "The reason for our good defense was that everyone liked playing defense and everything seemed to fall into place," said Mike Anania The defense was es-

sential in getting the win over Lincoln High

The main goal of the sophomore football program is to prepare and adjust the players to the high school level of competition The changes that seemed most evident to the players were that the practices were longer, being able to play at night instead of mornings, and traveling to out of town games.

Under the coaching staff of Kent Swanson, Mark Hickson and Tracy Stauffer the sophomore team gained leadership, skill, and became great competitors. The won-loss record may have been a little disappointing, but the experience will never be forgotten.

Varsity Volleyball

Spikers fall one win short of title

The Rocket volleyball team once again had an excellent season. Many goals were met, records were broken and team unity was achieved.

The Rockets started the season off by winning 14 consecutive matches to break a school record. By the time the team was getting ready for districts it was 16-2, a very impressive record " Districts was the most exciting," senior setter Laura Hitz said, "We won by beating East and it was a hard game physically."

The spikers played many tough games all season and were faced with many challenges. To obtain their winning season and meet these challenges the team had to work together as a team, making use of everyones strengths. "We had good balance and played good as a team," senior All-Stater Karen Moore said." And we had the most team unity you'll ever find in a team "

As the season was coming to an end it was again time for the Rockets to make a trip to State.

Coach Sandi Genrich's spikers easily defeated Omaha South in the quarterfinals 15-11, 15-7 and went on to beat Kearney 15-13, 15-9 in the semi-finals.

"I'll remember this game because we really played as a team, and we had fun," said Hitz.

Then came the State finals where the Rockets and The East High Spartans were to meet for the fifth time during the season with the Rockets winning two of the previous four games. In the first set East jumped to a 13-0 lead, but the Rockets bounced back outscoring East 8-2. The momentum of the first game carried over to the second game. The Rockets blew East away in the second set 15-2. But in the third game East was able to get the upper hand and give the Rockets their third loss of the season .

"I thought we had the best coach in the state because we were in the finals four years in a row," commented Moore. "And I'm disappointed because we beat East twice and it just came down to that one night at State."

"I think this is the closest team I've ever played with and that's probably why it hurt as much as it did when we lost because we deserved more," Hitz said, Moore added, "I'm going to really miss it because it was a fun three years."

Rockets overcome inexperience

With only one returning player, the reserve volleyball team started the year inexperienced, but overcame the disadvantage to finish the season with a respectable 8-7 record.

First year coach Cindy Reeves really didn't know what to expect from her team early in the season, but her reserves won four of their first five matches, beating Norfolk, St. Anthony's of Minnesot a , Bellevue East , and crosstown rival Lincoln High. "I heard Northeast had a very good volleyball program, but it was really better than I heard , " Reeves said .

The spikers hit a three-game losing

skid around mid-season, but fought back to win four straight matches before narrowly losing to East in the finals of the Reserve Invitational.

Team unity and dedication were the goals for this year's team, which impressed Coach Reeves. "The team had a very positive attitude, was always willing to improve, and was receptive to ideas and coaching," Reeves said

Coach Reeves used ten different starters throughout the season and everyone got a chance to play, so by the end of the season the reserves were no longer inexperienced, and were probably trained for a possible spot on varsity next year.

New coach, moon ball key season

The boys varsity tennis team started its season on shaky grounds by losing the first few dual meets. The netters fought back though, and won five of their last seven meets to finish with a respectable 5-6 record.

Assistant Coach Bruce Poe felt his team lacked experience early in the season. " Early in the year, we dropped some matches we shouldn't have, but as the season progressed, we learned to handle the pressure better and win some matches "

The netters finished tenth at the state meet held in Omaha on October 14 and 15 The number one doubles team of Scott R . Johnson and Joel Walton advanced to the quarterfinals, the farthest of any of the Rockets. " The state meet was a little disappointing, but I guess us

winning state was a little unrealistic," said number two singles player Mike Cochran.

The Rockets experimented throughout the season with a different type of strategy called moonball. The object of moonball is to lay back on the baseline and keep the ball in play as long as possible It also relaxes the player using it and keeps him from hitting bad shots. "I had been trying to teach the team patience and not to hit the ball hard, but to keep it in play," said Poe

This season was Poe's first with Northeast, and it was an enjoyable one for him and the players. "Coach Poe treated everybody fairly, and since he was young, we could relate to him well," said Cochran.

With 12 returning letter winners and depth added by incoming sophomores, the girls and boys gymnastics teams had an impressive season.

The girls were led by Senior Renee Gould and Sophomore Cheri Crosby, while the boys counted on Mike Brezenski, Tom Heiser, and Todd Kirk for leadership Brezenski represented NE boys gymnastics at state by placing fifth in the all-around at districts

In addition to competing in many dual meets, the gymnastics teams also participated in various tournaments. At the

Millard North Invitational the girls placed third and the boys 14 out of 18 teams. In October, the gymnasts participated in the Trans Nebraska meet. The boys recorded a fifth place finish while the girls placed third.

To finish the season on a high note the girls team competed at the state meet. Gould took first place in vaulting and floor ex and ended up with second place in all-around Teammate Cheri Crosby placed sixth in all-around "The season was pretty good because we made it to state," Crosby said

Cross Country

Rogge' s rabbits run to third place

For those who think cross country is a lot like the craze of jogging, one look at the cross country runner ' s schedule would show a vast difference between the casual jogging expert and the distance runner.

Coach Bill Rogge' s harriers started practice two weeks before school started to prepare for the demanding fall schedule The average run per day reached a staggering 15 miles. Some of the team members also participated in a three week summer clinic.

After the school year started, the runners had an optional morning practice and a mandatory practice after school. In addition to running, the team members lifted weigh ts three times each week

All the work paid off rich dividends for Rogge's squad.

"At the beginning of the season, everyone was saying 'Northeast cross country, forget it'," Rogge said . " But, the team worked hard and they felt that

they could become a good team I/

The Rocket boys team proved many observers wrong when they placed second in the district meet, and finished with a strong third place showing at State. The girls State showing was highlighted by a tenth place finish from Gina Smith.

Inexperience was a major factor to overcome for the girls, as they had just three returning letterwinners when the season started and that dropped to two because of an injury. The boys counted on five returning lettermen which provided the needed leadership.

Rogge was also pleased with the way the team banded together to become a closely-knitted team. "The team becomes close because when you ' re watching the others run, you have a lot 1 of sympathy and understanding for them because you know what they're going through," Rogge said. "And, you also know that it's going to be your turn next."

Unity, dedication goals of season

Nobody promised the 1983-84 Northeast basketball team a rose garden following a 1982-83 state title. The Rockets lost all five starters plus the sixth man from that 23-1 team, the best record in Northeast's history.

Veteran Coach Ed Johnson, in his 33rd year at the Northeast helm, said the loss of players would be difficult to overcome, but he also expressed optimism before this season started. "We are short on experience, but I have a feeling that this team will play pretty good basketball," Johnson said.

These words were repeated following the season's first game against highlyregarded East High. Outmanned, but never outhustled, the Rockets used a disciplined offense to record the season's first major upset, a 54-53 win over the Spartans

There were other highlights in an 11-9 season, but the Rockets could go no farther than the first round of the district tourney, losing 78-53 to East.

The inside play of 6-4 Kurt McClanahan (the Rockets' tallest starter) and the outside shooting of Rick Bridger and Dave Lowe provided fans with exciting play. Bridger scored 277 points for the season while McClanahan chipped in 213 and was the leading rebounder. Bridger's 27-point outburst against Omaha Benson was the best single game point total for one game by any Rocket.

Northeast finished 3-4 against city teams, and played an unbelievable four overtime games in a row midway through the season. Records were unclear, but it could be the first time in state basketball history that a team has played four consecutive overtime contests

While the Rockets couldn't match the state title hoopla of the previous year, the final record shows two wins over .500, and that's an accomplishment some thought might be difficult for a team with so much inexperience.

Reserve rally nets 10-5 record

The boys reserve hoopsters rallied behind a six-game winning streak at the end of the season to finish with a 10-5 record.

A victory over the previously unbeaten East High reserves was the climax of the boys' season. " It was our last game of the season and Coach Seng had 99 losses in his career. We knew if we played up to our full potential we were capable of beating any team," said junior Ron Nelson The win was also important to the reserves because East defeated the Rockets in the first g ame of the year

The sea s on had its low points as well as its high points " Our low point of the season w as when we lost to Hastings because we weren't mentally prepared, " said Nelson . The Hastings game was the reserves' first road trip of the season

After a slow 4-5 start, the JV's put together a six-game winning streak,

posting wins over Beatrice , Bellevue Ea s t , Southeast , Fremont, Ralston, and East. " We got a lot better as the season went on. Once we got a few wins and believed we could win, we did," said sophomore Tre Brashear. "Once we learned Mr. Seng's style and what he · wanted us to do, it was a lot easier. "

Sen g' s cagers had to overcome a height disadvantage and a habit of turning the ball o v er. They made up for these weaknesses with quickness and a lot of team spirit " In practice, we did a lot of scrimmaging and drills, " said Nelson Brashear commented, "The practices weren ' t bad if we won, but they were if we lost. "

This ye a r provided the reserves with the vital experience and confidence to help build a strong varsity team next season. " We have enough potential for next year to win state," predicted sophomore Mike Longe.

Sophs prepare for 83-84 season

The purpose of the sophomore basketball program is to prepare players for reserve and varsity next year. This year's team seemed to prepare itself well by posting a 7-5 record.

" We started working as a team the first game, but then we had a let-down for the next couple of games, " said Tim Kennet. " But after we got through those games we started to play like a team again and improved with each game "

The Rockets' strengths this year were the team ' s quickness, their ability to hustle, and height But, they had a tendency to foul a lot which got them in

trouble in many games.

The hardest game of the season was also the cagers' best game. The sophomores played East for a second time on East's home court The team was out for revenge because they lost to East earlier.

" This was one of our best games because we played as a team and we really wanted this game bad," said Kennet They got their revenge by beating East 51-45.

The Rockets ended their season with a 75-49 win over the Waverly reserves.

Moore named to Super State team

For the second consecutive year, Northeast's girls basketball team faced Kearney in the State Tournament Unfortunately, the result was the same, a Kearney win that knocked Coach Hank Willemsen's Rockets out of the field.

In 1982, Kearney ' s win came in the final game as Karen Moore's infamous 75-foot shot at the buzzer brought Northeast to within a field goal of the state title. In 1983, Moore again figured into the picture, as expected, but in a different manner .

Moore was whistled for her first foul on the opening tip of the game, and that set the tone of the game as Northeast fell in the first round, 52-35 .

Although Willemsen was pleased with the way his squad came back, he admitted the early foul problems on Moore were a key to the outcome. Moore picked up her fifth foul midway through the third quarter and was forced to sit

on the bench for a large part of the first half with four fouls.

" We lose a lot of our offense when Karen isn't in the game," Willemsen said. The veteran coach tried to be diplomatic when he discussed the fouls called on Moore, but he was outspoken about the opening tip call.

"In all of my years of coaching, I have never seen a call like that," Willemsen said "If the official had thrown the ball straight up, there wouldn't have been a foul called."

The loss left a somewhat tainted image on an otherwise successful 13-6 year. "We worked hard and wanted to keep going at state," Perri Tomlinson said "Some of us had never been to state before, and at times the pressure was nerve-wracking."

Karen Moore stamped herself as one of the premiere girls players in Nebraska and was named to the Lincoln and Omaha newspapers' Super-State teams.

Inexperience costly to reserves

This year ' s reserve squad had to go through a building process with only one returning junior, and a host of sophomores.

Although the team was inexperienced, the players thought they had the ability to do better than they did. "I thought we would win more games because I felt we had the ability. We just didn ' t execute," commented Linda Dolezal.

Jodi Olson had the same view on the team. "We had the ability, but didn't reach our potential," Olson said.

The Rockets ended the season with a

3-13 record The three wins came against Papillion , Columbus, and Southeast

The best game of the season was the second meeting against Southeast, because the Rockets played together as a team and won. The first time the two teams met , Southeast won Southeast was the only Lincoln school the cagers defeated.

The girls felt they learned a lot and gained the needed experience they ' ll need for next year.

Olson commented that, " Coach Shields prepared us for next year. I think everyone improved in some areas ."

The goal for this year's swimming teams was to qualify as many people for state as possible, and to better their individual times at each meet "This season started out really well.

The road to state was not an easy one, according to Holt "It's a long season and it takes a lot of self-motivation to get through it and it takes a lot of time," Holt said. Junior Ann Willet said, "The uphill road to state was even harder when we couldn't swim in our pool for a few weeks at the beginning of the season because of the acid balance problem."

Hester ends 34 year LNE career

Max Hester, who has served as teacher, coach, assistant coach, and administrator at Northeast for 34 years, and has been the school's athletic director since 197 4, will be retiring at the end of the 1982-83 school year.

Born and raised in Beaver City, Nebraska, Hester lived and worked on a farm with his parents. Hester went through the hard depression years during the l 930's on that farm. However, he refers to it as a "golden era", because people worked hard and pulled together. They were all alike, and no one was any better than anyone else. He can remember that on his high school football team, only one boy owned a car.

Hester then attended Kearney State College where he majored in physical education and social studies. He then attended the University of Wyoming where he obtained his masters degree. In 1940, he got his first teaching job in Ord, Nebraska. Hester came to Northeast in 1949, and became the head track coach in 1954.

Hester has had many memorable m o m e n ts d u r i n g h i s y ea r s a t Northeast, including three undefeated football teams, attending seven state basketball tournaments, and a train trip in the early 60's when the entire

school hopped aboard for a trip to Omaha for a state tourney basketball game.

Hester served in the infantry in Germany, which he believes to have been a very significant time in his life. He remembers arriving back in Newport, Virginia after WWII was over, and walking down the gangplank of the ship to once again feel American soil beneath his feet. Some of his comrades even kissed the ground, and Hester recalls that not very many eyes were dry.

In the future, Hester plans to spend a lot of time fishing, possibly even going up to Canadian waters to test his skills. He and his wife also plan to travel quite a bit, visiting his four children and seven grandchildren. Plans include going to Seattle and New Hampshire for a vacation.

Friendship and competition are two things that Hester values a great deal. He has a devoted heart for the athletic program here at Northeast, and his concern for the students is very evident. His humble and gentle spirit will be missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him, but we all wish for him "the best" as he steps out into a new horizon. Thanks, Max.

Through the years, Hester is pictured in 1983 with his former secretary, Naomi Robison; and with former Northeast head football coach Art Bauer. The bottom photo shows Bauer and Hester hoisting the state flag gift from the championship team of 1961

Close-up: Memories

As Northeast social studies teacher Don Sweem recollects his days of youth, he recalls his most embarrassing moment. His face turns red as he remembers He was out on the basketball court for the first game of the season and to the surprise of all the spectators (not to mention himself) the old uniform he was wearing ripped and fell to his ankles.

I still get embarrassed about that moment," laughs Sween.

Sweem, who graduated from Ashland High S c hool, also remembers when his school's track team won a conference meet with only four men But his most memorable moment in high school was his junior-senior banquet. He thought it was "just great" because he was surrounded by friends.

While Sweem was reaching adulthood he learned many things that only experience can teach. He feels that a teacher ' s number job is not to expand the student ' s minds, but to "give the students an opportunity to expand their own minds " Sweem feels that televisions, stereos, cars

and things of that sort sometimes are h ar mful to students because with them students don't study as much. But, "high school students are probably as good as they ever were," Sw e em said.

If y ou haven't started looking over career opportunities you are probably three to six years too late, according to Mr. Sweem. He thinks that when you first step through the doors of junior high you should be looking over the opportunities that are facing you. He does not mean that you need to pick one occupation but you should have a few ideas in mind.

Even though Sweem teaches, he does not feel that the three R ' s (or social studies), are the most important part of high school. He feels that high school is the time to" overcome the social problems of growing up." And he also believes that before someone graduates from high school, (if not before) " they should have a definite view on right and wrong."

Sweem says that, "Northeast students are great young people "

Close-up: Soaring Dreams

For some people, dreams don't ever seem to get off the ground, but that's not true for LNE's Don Mach. Ever since he started working with toy models as a little boy he has been interested in planes and flying them . His real interest in planes began while some of his relatives were in the Air Force and one of his uncles worked for NASA.

After a hard day ' s work in LNE ' s trade metals shoppe Mach heads for a couple of hours of free flying. For Mach, flying is his way of relaxation and his time to think, but he adds warning to that. "Flying is like a good physical workout, but I don't advise anyone to do it if their mind is too preoccupied. That's when flying becomes dangerous," Mach says.

Mach began flying in 1965 while working for the Tri-County schools.

Since then he has joined the UNL's flying club and has soared in that group for the last eight years.

Mach's next goal is to own his very own airplane. Mach, who is looking for a used, complicated plane, says that a reasonable price is $10,000. "I have a champagne taste but a beer budget," chuckles Mach

Mach, who would have liked to have gone into piloting professionally says, "from the standpoint of money, I would have liked to become a professional pilot but unless you're a commercial pilot it ' s not inviting. "Charter pilots hurry up to get somewhere and then once you get there you just sit and wait until it's time to come back."

Mach is on cloud 9 and on the runway of making his dreams come true.

Close-up: Warm Welcomes

When Mrs. Linda Clabaugh, a firstyear English teacher, walked through the doors of Northeast on the first scheduled class day for students, she knew how it felt to be a sophomore. "I thought that I was going to get lost in the building with the sophomores. I only knew where my classroom was," says Clabaugh, who now is more acquainted with the school and feels more comfortable every day (just like the sophomores)

Clabaugh, who graduated from Kearney High School. says that high school students now are different than when she graduated from high school. One way they are different is that students now are much more informed about the world through the mass media where she had to learn about the world through reading books.

Another new face in the faculty section this year is Jay Chipman. Chipman, who teaches drama, was "excited" to meet the challenge of teaching in a new school. As the year progressed his excitement increased. Chipman commented that one of his

outstanding moments this past year was when the cast of "The Diary of Anne Frank," Chipman 's first play at N.E ., received two standing ovations. This year the German students also wer e fortunate to have the talented Mrs. Isaacson as a teacher. Isaacson who is originally from Germany, graduated from UNL and did her graduate work at the University of Kentucky Isaacson thinks that the students at N.E. are hard working and, "for the most part wellbehaved."

This past year the Rockets were not only lucky to receive the talents of Clabaugh, Chipman, and Isaacson but also the talents of Randy Connot, (Industrial Arts), Mrs. Constance Kingston (Developmental Learning), Bruce Reed (Business), Mrs . Maryann Spahni (Career Orientation), and Mrs. Gast (Foods).

Clabaugh summed up her feelings about Northeast. "I like it here very much. The people are warm, comfortable, and fun, plus the faculty is very professional. It's' nice to be here," she said .

Close-up: Foreign Country

During the summer of 1982, Ms. Jan Ristow and Ms. Carolyn Bantam traveled together to Great Britain for thre e weeks . While in Great Britain, the two Northeast English teachers did many things. One of Ristow's favorite memories is going to Stratford-on-Avon, Shakespeare's birthplace. While there, she saw Shakespeare's work in " King Lear" performed by the Royal Shakespear Company. "It just came alive, " says Ristow

Bantam (unlike Ristow who traveled the theaters, art galleries, and other traditional sight-seeing places ) enjoyed just walking and ·finding places of interest by accident "I went to a lot of art galleries but I also enjoyed the times when I just walked and walked," remembers Bantam. She also treasures the day she spent on the Isle of Skye " I could see across the bay to the mountains of Scotland Also I like the name "Isle of Skye. It

sounds so romantic to me," says Bantam with a smile on her face.

During the time of their stay in Gre a t Britain, Ristow and Bantam car r ied all of their belongings in back packs and stayed in different homes c alled "Bed and Breakfast" for about $14 a night Ristow and Bantam never made reservations They just started knocking on doors, seeing if there were any vacancies.

One day while Ristow was in a restaurant, news came that former Secretary of State Haig had resigned and everyone was interested. "Some of the people knew more about the U . S . than many American people do," Ristow said.

Bantam was very surprised at the fluency of the English language used in Great Britain "They love the language and use it well," Bantam said.

When asked if Bantam would like to return to Great Britain someday, she replied, "Absolutely!"

Close-up: Embarassment

When Mrs. Vietta Short, Northeast P E. teacher, received her high school diploma on graduation night she most likely was thinking about different things than this year's senior. She was remembering all the good times she had in high school.

For example, her Senior Sneak Day, or perhaps when she and the rest of the decorating committee for her junior prom were locked outside at the top of the capitol building in formal clothes.

As a sophomore, Mrs. Short remembers the Halloween hayrack ride as being very spooky. After the ride there was a dance and refreshments to help end the night right.

While in high school, Mrs. Short was a cheerleader and enjoyed going to games. The only difference between cheerleading then and now is their transportation. She remembers having to wear bib overalls over her uniform so she could ride her horse 2 ½ miles to the game. Cheerleaders have it a lot easier now.

Instead of riding a "mustang," they just hop into one.

Mrs . Short, who took Latin while in high school, feels that students spend too much time on frill classes or nonacademic classes. She says that they are important, but should not take up three-fourths of a student's schedule.

One of Mrs . Short's most memorable times while at Northeast was when she was teaching a swimming class how to do the tuck surface dive and she lost her balance and fell into the pool with her clothes on! No one was as flabbergasted as Mrs. Short Mrs. Short is not a teacher who will beg a student to stay in school if they don't want to. "Kids should stay in school only if they are interested," says Mrs Short

When Mrs. Short was in high school, dating wasn't much different than it is now Couples went to movies and dances. They even had a local hangout, but it wasn't McDonald's or Arby's, it was the local tavern. But, only soft drinks were served.

Close -u p: Unusual Hobby

P eop le start hobbies for different r easons. Some do their avocation for fun, while others do it for relaxation R e laxation is why Northeast Math in s t ructor Bob Wohlers started his ho bb y of making wooden birds.

Wohlers started making his flock of birds about a year ago, after being told that he had some heart blockage. His doctor told him that he needed to fi n d something to do that would get his mind off his troubles and school. S o a friend of Wohlers, who works for t h e Game Commission, helped him get going on his new hobby. "It does h elp me to relax, but I don't get carried away with it," remarks W o h lers.

How do you go about making

wooden birds? Well, Wohlers first decides on what kind of bird he wants to make and then he finds pictures to study. "They're just like people, there are no two birds alike," chuckles Wohlers. Next, he draws a side and top view of the bird on a piece of wood which he cuts out in a block shape He then rounds it out and uses a wood burner for the detail. The next step is the hardest for Wohlers and that is painting the bird. After that is com- · plete, Wohlers has a new-born bird for his collection.

Wohlers' next goal is to buy a new wood burner. "Everyone should have some kind of hobby. I don't know if it's this one or not, but everyone should have one."
