MANY STUDENTS AND TEACHERS AGREED that the longer day had many advantages. For example, an extra five minutes added to each period left more time for tests and to finish up last minute details. Physics teacher John Kastl makes the most of every minute during his lecture.

2/Longer Days

NOT ONLY WAS the day longer, but the study hall rules became strict and strongly enforced. These students decided to get the most out of study hall by actually studying as long as they had to be there.

It was the year that:

-class periods went from 50 to 55 minutes, thereby extending the school day from 3: 15 to 3:35 p.m.

-students had to sign up for five classes minimum, not the three or four seniors could often get by with in the past

-we returned to study halls with attendance taken and students seated in the cafeteria

-seniors got out only two school days earlier, not the four days they used to get

-we had no more early release days due to heat, thanks to a new superintendent who believed going to school is like going to a regular job.

It was the year of longer days

MUCH TIME EACH SUMMER is spent preparing for the upcoming school year. A perennial favorite is lining up to get a locker.

SOME STUDENTS HELD many different jobs this year. Teaching swimming lessons was one of them. Junior Gail Nelson was a swimming teacher at Woods Pool.

WHILE MOST STUDENTS were sound asleep at 6:30 a.m., the Shirettes were out practicing for the first games of the season.

8/Summer Work

SUMMER SCHOOL WAS a good way to get a few credits out of the way. Seniors Chris Smith and Craig Sosin attend summer school at East High.

Education during July

Far from Southeast students learn

School and hard work was not forgotten for all students on the last day of school. Summer school, clinics, camps, and contests were a part of many summer calendars.

While some students chose to attend summer school at East High to get requirements out of the way, others went because of low grades during the regular school year.

"It gave me a reason to get up and fix my Cheerios," was junior Carrie Richardson's reason for going. Mike Dahm, also a junior, said he went to school to break the tedium of summer life.

Various clinics and camps were held for cheerleading, drill team, student council, sports, drum majors, journalism, · and photography Some clinics, like cheerleading and drill team, for instance, were mandatory while others like journalism were not required.

Working was also part of the everyday schedule for some students.

Senior Doug Thompson chose to work at Wyuka Cemetary for his summer job. He worked 8-5 Mondays through Fridays

DURING THE SUMMER, many students have extra time for their jobs Senior Kris Petch earns some extra spending money working in the drive-thru at Runza Drive Inn.

and also on weekends doing maintenance work "I liked it because I like working with lots of dead people around. It was nice and quiet," he said.

National contests and meetings were a part of summer for a few students. Seniors Rob McEn tarffer and Jim Hanna went to the National Speech and Debate Tournament in Eau Claire, Wisconsin. Hanna placed fourth in the nation for his humorous interpertation, and said the thing he will remember most was making it to the final seven and competing before a large audience.

"I had a blast!" was the way senior Bob Holbert described his week at the National Association for Student Councils in Pittsburg. Many ideas, speakers, and inspirational films were enjoyed by both Holbert, the Nebraska State Student Council President, and Selina Shultz, the State's Council secretary, who was also chosen to go

Whether a student went across town to East High or across the country to Wisconsin, many new things were learned. Students came back to school with new ideas and knowledge gained from their summer educational experiences.

Lazy, summertime fun Students welcome stress free days

As the month of June came around, the word summer was on most students minds. Fun, sun, and travel was the major goal.

The - hectic schedule would be ended for another year, and students were ready for the relaxation and the pure enjoyment summer holds.

Along with summer came the usual activities such as sleeping late, watching T.V. (especially the soap operas that were missed during the school year), working, or just having fun.

"I slept as late as as I could, then sat around the house all day and watched T.V., and usually went out at night," said senior Danielle Mohr when describing a typical summer day.

Students could be found in many places on hot summer days though these kinds of days were seldom experienced because of the m ostly cool weather last summer. Swimming pools and trips to the lake were popular places to meet people and get the perfect tan. When avoiding the heat, or beating rainy day blues, many people could be found in shopping malls and movie theaters.

On the other hand, some students had the opportunity to travel abroad through Lincoln Public School trips, family vacations, and various types of exchange programs.

Junior Ed Palleson vacationed in Europe with his family. Among the countries visited, they stopped in Russia for one week. "I found the USSR most interesting of the places we visited," he said.

Ilse Wendorff, a senior, also had an opportunity to travel to a foreign country and experience their culture. Through the cultural exchange program American Field Service (AFS), Wendorff spent about three months living with a family in Brazil. After going through a long process involving filling out of forms and interviews, she was chosen to be an ambassador in Brazil though France was the country she originally requested. "It was hard at first because I didn't know the language (Portuguese)," she said. "I had a sister who spoke English, but it was still scary and ~onfusing at first."

As summer progressed, students grew restless with the monotonous vacation days. A longing grew for the routine and stability that school days provided. As the school year continued though, the longing for lazy summer days developed once again.

Individual looks prevail Students dress match personalities

In past years it seemed that fashion followed a certain set of rules. There were certain periods where everyone wore the same type of clothes. But this year especially, tradition seemed to change. Students were wearing many different styles, and the biggest trend of all seemed to be individualism and originality

The individualist look seemed to be the goal of most students, especially those who dressed in "New Wave" and " Goodwill look " clothing These looks included vintage clothing from the 1950's and ' 60's, wild patterns , and anything that seemed out of the ordinary.

Ideas for a certain style of dressing came from varied sources Magazines, retail stores, music groups, and past fashions all influenced styles.

Senior Todd Schroer said he got ideas for dressing from the characters in the " Archies" comic strip. " If it (clothing) looks like something they would wear, then I buy it, " he said.

Some people chose to wear the newest fashion looks instead of vintage styles.

Patterns such as plaid , stripes, floral, and paisley prints could be seen on everything from shirts to skirts and jeans .

"I like to be original when I pick my clothes I like them to be a little different but still be trendy," said sophomore Jill Haskell who likes to wear the current fashions.

Classic, more dressier styles, sometimes known as the Preppy look, was yet another popular fashion.

To top off these individual looks, accessories and the right · hair styles were a necessity. Older antique looking costume jewelry was seen everywhere. Scott Wright prefers this style to the more trendier ones. "I dress in the classic style because trends don ' t last long," he stated.

Hairstyles were important to perfect that certain image. Some popular styles were the one length hair cut called a bob for girls, and a style called a flop where one section of hair is left longer than the rest of the hair. This style was popular for both girls and guys alike. Whatever the style worn, expressing yourself was a major goal. "I like to stand out and make a statement with the clothes I wear," said sophomore Paul Gossin.

Changing relationships Teens value lovers, parents, friends

The word relationship has many different meanings and these meanings constantly change throughout one's life A teenager's total existence depended upon his/her parents. They supplied food, shelter, transportation, money, and entertainment. Now, however, a teen's life involves many different people to fulfill needs-needs which cannot be satisfied by parents alone.

Teenagers develop a need for affection and esteem which is usually satisfied by a peer, commonly known as a friend. "I admire the way Kris can find something positive about anything," said senior Susie Carlson about her best friend, senior Kris Jones. These two have been seen together roaming the halls of both Irving and Southeast since eighth grade when they became close friends. Sometimes the start of a friendship can be an awkward but memorable experience as was the case for Carlson and Jones. The first time they met was in seventh grade at Irving around Christmas time. Jones was giving her Christmas cards out to the class and neglected to give one to Carlson. Carlson's feelings

SOUTHEAST IS FILLED with many long lasting friendships Seniors Susie Carlson and Kris Jones have been friends since seventh grade

were hurt and she expressed this to Jones. Jones has since made it up to her by being a close and supportive friend at all times. Both agreed that an ideal friendship must consist of honesty, the reassurance of knowing that the other is always there, and trust.

"If everybody had a friend like the one I have in Susie, I sincerely think that the world would be a better and happier place to live in. "

Some people were able to find friends within their own family. Such was the case for junior twins Sam and Steve Clarence. The Clarences agreed that they are " alike in all ways. We share the same friends and the same classes, but we have different girlfriends." Though the Clarences are alike in many ways, they find that the qualities they look for in a relationship of the opposite sex vary greatly

FAMILY VACATIONS are a popular way of getting the whole family together. Here, junior Ed Pallesen , with his mother and brother, are touring Red Square in Moscow

The importance of a relationship between members of the opposite sex became evident during the high-school years "You need a relationship with the opposite sex because you need someone you can be honest with and also enjoy spending time with," said junior Kim Johnson about her relationship with senior Robert Hesse which in October had lasted for one year.

BOY /GIRL RELATIONSHIPS are very common and important among teenagers. Senior Robert Hesse and junior K i m Johnson have been going out for over a year.

Changing relationships Student affection needs changing

When spending time together, couples enjoy taking walks, going out for dinner, and to the movies When asked for a memorable moment with Johnson, Hesse replied " every minute I'm alone with her is memorable to me."

Seniors Bob Holbert and Nina Neubert have found that their long-term relationship thrived upon honesty and open-mindedness with each other, along with having good times.

Meeting a member of the opposite sex can prove to be both a rewarding yet difficult experience. A coincidental meeting took place for Hesse and Johnson. "One day I was downtown and I got a flat tire," Hesse said. "I was going to call for a ride and I ran into Kim and a friend. They gave me a ride home and from that moment on I knew she was the girl of my dreams. She's absolutely incredible."

In a relationship involving a member of the opposite sex, not only personality but looks are considered important. Holbert feels that what is important in a relationship is "to be able to talk about anything" or everything else will go

"Kaput." "She's a godess . Her eyes, her hair, her cute knees, her long slender feet, I wouldn't change anything about her. If she was perfect, she wouldn't want anything to do with me." Most people admire enough qualities in the other person that they choose not to change anything about them.

Some people still found that one of their parents can be their closest friend and also a frequent companion. Such is the case for senior Robin Neal and her mother Marsha Smith. "We've always been really close because we mutually respect and · understand each other," Smith said concerning her relationship with Neal. Neal thinks that their relationship is strong because " my mom thinks on my level, and she makes me feel like an equal. She doesn't overpower me."

Many students were envious of either their friends relationships with their parents, or of their boy/girl friends No matter how they felt about their friends, relationships were necessary in everyone's life, though the emphasis placed on them varied from person to person. As stated by Holbert, "Everyone needs a relationship, be it animal, mineral, or vegetable."

A NEW li;:>EA in stereo equipment is the compact disk player. Though more expensive than other equipment, the improved sound quality was well worth the cost.

Styles, choices differ widely

Music popular escape:

Music occupied a part of a person's everyday life. Whether it be while driving to school, watching TV, singing Happy Birthday to a friend in the halls, or at halftime of a football game, music became a basic part of a day.

Though music was common in almost all teenagers' lives, personal tastes in music varied from classical to jazz to more modern music like new wave or hard rock.

Senior Rob Walker said he enjoyed most types of music, among them older rock and roll, classial, and jazz. "Music gives me satisfaction," Walker said. "What music I play depends on what mood I'm in. I put on what will satisfy me at the time."

While some students prefered just to listen to music for personal enjoyment, others chose to take their musical interest further by participating in musi- · cal activities

Classes such a band, orchestra, Court Choir, Ars Nova Cora, and Knight Sounds were offered for students in,...'1 terested in instrumental or vocal music.

"The reason I like being in singing groups is because it's fun being part of a family of friends that have the same interest as I do," said junior Cindi Pasco who participated in both Queen's Court and Court Choir. "It's also an opportunity to really get to know people."

Bands were also a way for people who had common tastes in music to get together and perform.

"I don't care about making money. It's just fun to play at places," said senior Stuart Larson who has been a part of many bands, one of which was called Island of the Misfit Toys. Larson along with four other band members composed and practiced original music.

"There are a lot of places you can go where you can see two or three really good local bands for a couple bucks. There is a big musical movement going on in Lincoln, and a lot of good music is being played," said senior Matt Briggs. Whatever type of music preferred, music was a way to express feelings and to communicate with others.

"Music is emotional and interesting because you can see how the composer feels," said sophomore Chris Ellenwood. "It's a form of universal communication."

Larson felt music -was important because "it's a way you can express your views an d opinions."

Themes opposite in one act plays

One of the many cultural events that took place at Southeast during the past year was the annual presentation of the fall play. The plays took place on Nov. 7th and 8th.

"At the beginning of 'Juvie' the characters' crimes have just happened, so they were still in shock. Then each character had a re-enactment of their own crimes, which was really trying," said senior Martha Lauber

The cast features R. James Baylor, Evelyn Becker, Angie Cartwright, Mike Dahm, Kyle Dyas, Jim Hanna, Christine Hemmer, Kim Hoppe, Sharilyn Kerns, Martha Lauber, Rob McEntarffer, Cindy Paul, Carrie Richardson, and Jennifer Walker.

This year, unlike the past years, two one-act plays were chosen as opposed

NOT ONLY DO the actors need to know their cues but also the lightmen. So then they ' ll be ready for "Lights, cameras, action!"

to one longer play. The two plays, "Juvie" and "Roomers" both by Jerome McDonough were chosen because of the sharp contrast between the two themes, and the fact that they were by the same author

Director Carol Svoboda said that "it gives the students a chance to look at the style of theatre known as repertory. "Juvie" is a very important work on juvenile crime, so the cast will have a chance to do a very serious piece and then a farce such as '! Roomers".

The play "J uvie" is designed to give the side of the troubled individual, stated cast member senior James Baylor. "'Juvie' is the nickname given to a juvenile detention center, and this story is the happenings of one night there. They are in there for shoplifting, drinking and for all other sorts of crime," said cast member senior Kyle Dyas.

"Neither of the plays have a real main character," said Dyas, "and that's the way that it is in practice, no one acts superior. Everyone accepts each others character, and how they present it." Both plays are "ensemble" plays, which means that the people in the cast all have relatively equal parts. "One character might have more lines, but all parts are still equal," said Baylor.

CONCENTRATION IS a key factor to acting. Here senior Sharilyn Kerns shows her ability to stay in character.

GETTING THE RIGHT theatrical appearance, junior Carrie Richardson puts on stage makeup to perfect her character ' s appearance,

All of the hard work and frustrations of the many weeks of hard practice was pulled together and used in an all-out performance by the cast of "Juvie" and "Roomers" on opening night.

WITH A THEME like " On the Edge of a Dream ", students could feel the real i ty of homecom i ng night.

Homecoming festivities

The dream comes alive for Knights

"ON THE EDGE OF A DREAM" was how Susie Myers and Scott Gamet felt when crowned Homecoming queen and king.

"I was really shocked and I really didn't think I'd get such a honor," said queen Susie Myers

Candidates were chosen from all senior letter winners and pep club members. Students then voted to narrow down the I ist to 10 finalists and then voted again for who they wanted for king and queen. The royalty was then announced at the dance at 11 :30

"At first I was in shock, then after I realized it was really happening, I was ecstatic and it was unreal , " said king Scott Gamet

The festivities started Nov. 1 with an early morning pep rally

"I think the pep rally got everyone enthused about homecom i ng and the game," said Shirette Tiffany Seevers.

The evening began for most people with the football game against Fremont. The Knights were edged by the Tigers 20-17 in the last game of the regular season.

SHOWING TRUE SCHOOL SPIRIT, some football players haved their heads. This brave player shaved the initials S.E. on the back of his head.

Having homecoming so late in the season, was a first for the school. "The dance had to be after a game on a school day, and all the other weekends before Nov. 1 were full," _Pep Club president Amy Castro explained.

After the game, most people then traveled to the north gym for the dance which started at 9 p.m. and lasted until midnight.

Balloons, clouds, hearts, and metallic streamers were used to enhance the theme "On the Edge of a Dream." The pep club sponsored the dance, and were responsible for all the preparations, decorations, and entertainment.

The music was provided by the band Jagg which played mostly modern music.

"I think all the pizazz and effort that is put into homecoming makes it a big event," said senior Stephanie Buck- · waiter. "It's fun to be there, and most people have a great time."

I ntram u rals is ti me for fun, friends

Some students found that going home everyday after school can be a tedious and over-done activity. Even though there were many other fun and exciting things to do in Lincoln, Nebraska, such as cruising through Holmes Lake to check out the action (and members of the opposite sex ), some students found other means -to make their lifestyle more eventful. Their afternoons revolved around a unique combination of being with friends , having fun, and allowing their bodies to experience a physical activity which is known around the school as participating in an intramural sport.

There is an intramural sport to fulfill almost any person's dream of the perfectly most exciting activity to do after school. These sports included the following: baseball, bowling, and basketball. But this year a new concept was added to make the intramural seasons more able to serve a wider variety of interests. This sport is none other than the widely acclaimed activity of weightlifting.

The people that were participating

in intramurals were able to choose their own teams, team titles, and practice whenever it was convenient for them.

"lntramurals enable my friends and me to get together once or twice a week and have a good time doing something that we all enjoy/ said senior Jenny Horne

The team with the best overall season record was awarded by receiving a trophy and recognition from the school. Senior Bob Blumenstock said: "I do intramurals because it gives me a chance to do sports that I wouldn't have been able to do on a varsity level. It's nice to be able to get school recognition for doing good and having fun, especially geting gym credits for doing it."

Besides enjoying the sports, the participants in intramurals were also able to earn 1 to 2.5 credit points, depending on the sport.

"It's a great way to have fun plus get the bonus of getting ;:i few credit points for something that I like to do," said Horne.

Junior Katie Dimon summed up her feelingg on intramurals: "I really enjoy getting the exercise, and being in a different atmosphere with my friends. I also enjoy having fun wirhout the pressure of a big deal if you lose-or by some far chance, you win!" -Perky Perry

Photo B oopers

When you first p;ck up a magazine, what is the first thing you do... look at the pictures, right? If a group of photos look interesting, then maybe you will read the ort~cle; maybe not.

O.K. Now let'sju~t pretend that you opened up this month's National Geographic Magazine. As you look through it, you see one picture of a group of natives huddled together embarrassed to get their picture taken. On th0next page there is a beautiful picture of a rain forest, but it is interrupted by a huge hand in the center of focus. Th~ next page shows on old English fisherman on his little ,tugboat looking very humble, but in looking closer at his right hand, a very long middle finger is extended towards the -camera.

Thank goodness this is only pretend for National Geographic photographers, but as Shield photoghraphers, we must face this very unprofessional atmosphere everyday.

Our subjects are students who like to think they are capable and mature individuals. We believe that we have evidence to show otherwise Just imagine a whol~ yearbook of blurry hands and the backs of heads the next time you are approached by a photographer. You will appreciate it later.

We have a,1 gone through this at one time or another. It seemed parents always were trying to embarass their chi~ren. Is the phone really worth it?

For some people, the telephone was their lifeline to the world, their 'raison de 'me.' For others it was nothing but a nuisance item. Parents a lot of the time believed in the latter because they ended up becoming an answering machine, taking messages when their children were out.

The telephone does have some useful purpos,s, like calling your parents from the best party of the year, unable to dial the phone (thank god for technology, i;hey had a pushbuttonD, at 12:01 to tell them that might just happen to t>e a little late because the movia that yo,u went to got out late, and not tq worry.

Depending on a student's schedule, there are between 20-30 minutes a d~y spent during school for passing periods. This time was planned for traveling from Of}• dassroom to another, but what else did resourceful students use this free time for? What did they really do?

5 minute break

The five minute passion-oopsl-passing period wa~ where couples engaged in massive cuddling and performed world record kissing; dinging to each other until the last ppssible moment was a comrru;,n scene.

For some of the other girls who didn't have a member of the opposite sex permanently joined at the hip, passing periods were used to spray toxic substances for the purppse of molding their hair and to asphyxiate lhe people in the lockers next to them.

While others spent the time plast!rin · "1eir hc;air to thear heads or their bodi•s t others, some people found that the passing peroid was a time to find out the latest developments i9 the soap ~ra of their lives.

Student views

"I don't realhJ pay stereotypes a lot of attention. There are a few groups that ore 'astray' from the rest of the school, and if thev are. mavbe it i s because they want to be." (Junior girl)

" Stereotypes are not entirelv the student's fau l t. The parents have a great deal of influence on how the kids act. If a person cannot accept another because of his clothes or looks. then they have serious problems." (Junior bov)

"The masses of high school kids trv to be something thetire not just to fit in with a certain stereotvpical groups such as jocks, freaks, preps, etc. and end up unhappv because they are not trulv being themselves.'' (Senior girl)

PREPS: The typical prep is usually rich, but very conserative. Most ors happy lucky ancl never nesd to~ o job b~auss ~ir parents provide for thsm all the lzods they could aver wonL Polo shirts ( collars up, of course), button down shirts, horn rim glasses, loofsrs, argyle socks, topsictsrs, and duck shoss in pink and gresn colors are k~.

·Stereotypes among other sc~aols

Each high school in Lincoln has a ertain reputation which is assumed to be true by all of the other schools. 'Q\ese stereotypes can be helpful or very hurtful to the students involved. Mosl Southeast students indicated

on the poll that stereotypes are "deceiving ideas" and that "there should be a way to get rid of them". Despite this, they still had their generalized stereotypes about the other schools. Below, we present

these stereotypes as seen through tt,e eyes Qf Southeast studen~. ~e Shield photographers who vts1ted these schools reported a very positive, outgoing and friendly atmosphere at eacn school.

Southeast

"Speaking with on outsider's view and from what I've heard, most Omaha students see Southeast as the 'Hollvwood High"'.

"I think Southeast hos too monv cliques We hove a wide variety of individuals. That port I like."

Northeast

"Don't walk down the halls there or vau'II get knifed or mugged "

"Uncoln High is a school whose students hove total independence and are complete individuals. There are no cliques. therefore, they ore more capable of letting their true personality shine through "

East

"I think the girls don't core much about how they look and the guvs ore either "I guess they're all the rich, snottv tvpes who wont to flaunt their wealth" nerds or georheods.''

"A school with no judgemental ideas. The students ore willing and wonting to be

"Enthusiastic. A tight-knit group of high-spirited people who worii hord to achieve a friend to anyone." their goals athletically, academicallv and socially." ·

STANLEY: Hi, Bertha. You sure are looking intense today. ·

BERTHA(says glamourously ): Thank you. I just got out of Body beating.

STANLEY: I con tell. I was just wondering How you were ploinning to use 111our , ee time this weekend. Why don't you give me 0 call r

BERTH : We I, maybe I mlght if I have time.

An outing that conS'isted of a movie and ice cream at Ted and Wally's, then wasting time until the 12:00 curfew. (T e act of wasting tim~ was usually con idered the high point of the evening i r most).

Though this type of date was common, a girl a~king a guy out wa also acceptable.

"When · girl ask a guy i r a date, the relation ip becomes stronge be ause a ll th pre sure is tmken ff ttfle boy. Besides if they ask you out, they have ~o poiy," said semior Jeff Chadwick.

Another ty~ of date was whe e two or more ~le go out as a 'casual-friendship' date. ffiis was well-liked beca se there are no com ittments or ties.

Last year proves to be best of all

Regardless of popular b e lief, school i s a very important part of a student's life. When asked about sc h oo l, so me students may say that school is dumb or borin g, but when digging a little deeper , different facts ca n be found. Most students even had a favorite year of sc hool and many memorable experiences that involved sc hool.

The experiences that so me se nior s hav e had durin g their final year of school may have swayed their favorite year decision

" My senior year has probably been my favorite year. Being a senior gives you a kind of authority," sa id se nior

Bob Miller

It seemed most seniors would agree with Mill e r o n that one. For other seniors though, the authority is not as important as what they do with it.

" Being a senior means that you don ' t have to dodge people in the hallway You just walk right through the crowds,"

Dawn Sims said.

Almost unaninmously, seniors see med to find 12th grade to be their best year.

" There rs something about being a senior that no other grade-not even ninth grade-has, " said senior Brian Porter.

The senior year has always been and alway s will be special. So, juniors and sophomores will have to anticipate thier own senior year, while seniors enjoyed the freedom and the new experiences that this year held for them.

Expenses add up during final year

The final year of high school is a time of making many lasting memories one being how much money was spent. "Senior year is a very expensive year," senior Betty Douglas said. "I just hope I can afford to go to college after it's all over."

Senior pictures were a big expense for some.

Senior Nancy Nelson said her parents "were shocked by the cost of them, but they also knew it was something worthwhile. Y'know going out in style."

In addition to pictures, the price of being a senior may have included college applications, standardized test fees, graduation announcements, cap and gown rental, and class rings. "Everything adds up," senior Robin Falls said. "It seems like there's always something to pay for."

These senior expenses, however, were not the most costly, according to senior Matt Briggs. His biggest expense was lunch, "because you have to go out to lunch every day when you're a senior." Briggs and senior Steve Zabel both made it clear that when one is a senior, one does not EVER eat in the cafeteria.

Another major expense for some seniors was cars and gasoline. Falls said she "couldn't get along without it" because she had more activities than ever before.

The activities themselves were expensive for some seniors. Nelson said, "Last year was ho-hum, but this year I go out a lot." She got a part-time job to cover the costs of going out frequently, she said, because "my folks are paying for all the school stuff."

College prep classes offer info

'-:,~ "The school can prepare anyone at Southeast if they ' re willing to learn. " That ' s what Scott Lippstreu , a Southeast graduate and Georgetown freshman, said when commenting on how well Southeast prepared him for college

A number of college prep classes are offered at Southeast.

lippstreu said that A.P. grammar helped him most becuase it taught him to " expect to work a lot in college. "

Andy Loth , another Southeast graduate and Washington University (St. Louis ) freshman , said that physics helped him a little bit because the tests were similiar to tests in college

" I don ' t think anything in high school could have prepared me for college, " said Loth. He explained that college is different in the sense that _there is more homework and a lot more studying.

Another Southeast graduate and University of Nebraska Lincoln freshman, Cathy Peters, said that PSSC physi c s and chemistry helped her. She said that it " was like going through it again " because she had already studied some of the subject matter in these classes

"If you've got an idea of what you ' re going to major in, then take the classes that are directed to your field. The tougher your classes in high school, the easier college courses are."

Art Hillman, counselor, said he visits with graduates each year concerning how Southeast helped prepare them for college, and what more the school could have done

" I think overall that students feel pretty good about the program they receive at Southeast, " Hillman reported.

Mid-term grads get a head start

Requirement s for mid-term graduates are no diff e r en t than r e quirem e nt s for st ud e nt s g raduating in Jun e, according to As si stant Prin c ipal for Stud e nt Services , Don Darnell. A student must hav e 150 total c r e dit s and hav e th e ne cessa ry number of credits in selected areas.

One student who m et the requir e m e nt s and g raduat e d early was Paula Dee Bu sac ker. "I've been planning to do this since I was a so phomore ," said Busacker. She added that she knew what she want e d to do in the future, and this will help her to get a head start on it. Busacker lived in th e dorm s and attended UNL during the seco nd se m es ter.

Busacker would fit Counselor Art Hillman 's de sc ription of a mid-term graduate. Hillman said most mid-t e rm g rad s have "a unique characteristic that urg es them to go on."

Mid-term grads u sually plan to start co llege right away, work for a semester and the summer and then start college, or just want to get out of school, according to Hillman He added there are always students with th e ir own reasons for graduating early.

Susan Baird 's decision to graduate early wa s based on the fact that her parents moved out of state in February. Baird said she would be "missing lots of little thing s, but I'll be back for graduation."

There was no formal graduation for January graduates, but they were invited to come back iri the spring for commencement excercises, Darnell said. He added that the graduates received a letter from Dr.Lauterbach, congratulating them on finishing their high school careers.

Adulthood pressures are realized

Turning 18 allowed some special privileges such as the right to vote, but for males, turning 18 also presented a conflict-draft registration.

Males of "sound body and mind " were allowed thirty days on each side of their 18th birthday to put themselves on file with the Selective Service , according to a post office official.

"The government needs some procedure to protect the country" said junior Ben Harris. On the other hand, senior Jeff Chadwick said that registering is " against my principals and a scary thought."

Another problem arose with student aid being withe Id for those who did not register.

One possibility for those opposed to the draft was to register as a conscientious objector. To do this , one registered normally, and then if a draft were to occur, they would go through a series of interviews. One senior who chose this route was senior Doug Thompson

"I would like to defend my country, but in different ways than killing people, such as being a member of noncombat personnal like a cook or a medic," Thompson said.

"If there is a draft, then I'm moving to Canada," said junior Jim Poggemeyer about the draft

"My religious beliefs prevent me from participating in war and killing," said senior Bruce Wrightsman.

"I oppose registering as a whole, but if women registering for the draft would bring about greater equality, then I can not consciously oppose it," said senior Martha Hoppe.

Higher education not free for some

After graduation, most seniors at Southeast go on to some type of post-secondary education, most commonly a college or university. For many students an important concern was how to pay for their schooling.

While some seniors' parents pay for the cost, others, such as Bruce Wendel, are on their own.

"About two or three years ago, my parents told me I was going to have to pay," said Wendel. Since then he has taken a variety of jobs to help save some money-including McDonald's, the Lincoln counrty club, and the YMCA.

A few students, such as Doug Thompson, welcome the chance. "I feel I'll appreciate my educaJion much more if I pay for it. I welcome the challenge and responsibility."

Few seniors have the entire tuition all saved before they enroll as freshmen. Wendel said that he has "about two years worth, depending on where I go." The rest of the money will come from continued employment or special sources such as scholarships, work study programs, and student loans.

"I haven't really looked into that stuff yet. I've got to get on the stick," Thompson said. "I'm a little worried because President Reagan is slashing student loan programs to the bone."

While Wendel said that the University of Nebraska Lincoln was his "second choice, I may end up going there." UNL is one of the least expensive options to Southeast students, averaging about $1200 a year, according to Wendel.

Seniors suffer from common ailment

'-:J"' Senioritis. The word isn't even in the dictionary, but is commonly used by high school seniors. What exactly is the meaning of the word? Is it even real?

"The frustration of being held down by an institution that no longer serves your purpose, meaning school, people, etc.," was senior Mary Lawlor's definition of the • word.

Senior Jamie Green said that for him, senioritis was defined as "being sick of the mundane schedule of high school."

Lower grades, laziness with regards to schoolwork, and an overall "I-don't-care" attitude can all be linked to senioritis at one time or another.

"Extreme apathy and excessive tardiness," were other symptoms, according to Green.

Senioritis has been experienced by almost all seniors in history. Some people saw senioritis as an excuse to act squirrely, while others truly experienced the trauma and reality of senioritis.

For those who did experience the full effect of senioritis, a lot felt that escape was a way to deal with their feelings.

"I get in a car, put on loud tunes, and drive," said Lawlor.

A feeling of the need for change occurs in almost all grades, but seniors especially felt the rieed, and at this time, senioritis usually set in.

"People get fed up with needing passes to go to the bathroom, and having their mom call to confirm that they're really sick," said Green.

"Perfect" people bully sophomores

7 Being a senior it's supposed to be one of the best years of your life, and most seniors tried their darndest to make it so. There were so many things that made the "senior year" stand apart from the rest of their lives.

It was a special time , because many of the seniors' closest friends, people that they had gone to school with for up to 13 years, could have been moving away for college. It was this feeling of alienation and insecurity that will make college students wish for their senior year once again.

Then there were those senior parties. Parties where one could say, "Get the h$*! out of here!!" to all the juniors and sophomores that happen to show up, because you were a senior, and could be as cocky as you wanted to be

An advantage, however, to having turned 18 while in high school, was the ability to merely cross the state border and become an "adult." In the states of Iowa and Kansas, you could purchase 3.2 beer. 3.2 beer has the same taste as any other beer, but the alcoholic content is lowered considerably. In order to have the privilege of purchasing this beverage, a student must have turned 18 by July 31, 1985. Of course, a few seniors had other methods for getting alcoholic beverages and other substances whenever the mood became prevalent.

These are some of the very reasons that some parents didn't trust their senior "children" very much. Curfews may have been reluctantly dropped or lengthened upon the students' behavior shown to their parents. These parents knew that the "senior year" was nothing more than a preparation for the intellectual and party scene at college.

Seniors coach the underclassmen

'-:,(l; To be a senior in high school is a position greatly admired by all.

Many underclassman look upon them for their knowledge in classes taken years before. But one thing juniors and sophomores cherish even more is their advice, especially about school.

Seniors of Southeast were recently asked: "What would you have done differently in high school?". Their answers split into two opposite categories Some wanted to become more involved with school as a sophomore, while others wished they would have slowed down in their commitments.

Laura Deckinger, president of Lincoln's Junior Achievement, now desired "to slow down a little bit." Deckinger, who has been very active most of her high school life wanted to "work a little bit harder on my grades."

"I would have tried to express myself as a person tried to talk to more people," said Stacy Collingham Collingham wishes she would of had more fun and not have worried so much about grades.

But let's not forget the other seniors who wished they could have become more involved with high school.

"I should have taken school more seriously. There are scholarships I would have liked to have, now I can't try for," said Susan Zager.

Monica Mcinturf said she would have liked to have been more supportive of Southeast's athletic teams and more active in clubs. A talented singer, Mcinturf has been involved in numerous musicals and singing groups.

But all these seniors do have something in common. They are willing to give advice to juniors and sophomores. They all encouraged their fellow underclassmen not to be afraid to get involved in high school.

"Don't be afraid of leadership positions, go for it. Be everything you can be in high school," said Deckinger who strongly believes being involved in many high school activities will help when you apply for scholarships and college.

Mcinturf gave advice on not to worry so much about grades, have school spirit and always be a part of the school.

"Get good grades. Be as sociable as you can. Try to plan your future (where you will go to college) in your junior year," said Kalan Kessler.

"Be yourself. Try to express yourself as much as possible. Don't be intimidated by the upper class just because they're a year ahead of you. Don't be afraid to voice your opinions," said Cheri Jackson.

"Don't get burned out, if you don't know your own limits. Don't be afraid to work toward some things," said Jeff Jeter. "Get involved in a club you feel comfortable with don't be afraid to get involved, high school passes fast."

Knight and Lady Senior honor continues

Knight and Lady wa s an honor given to eight seniors who had proved them se lv es at Southeast. Th is year, due to a tie for both Knight and Lady, ten were honored

The procedures for being chosen for thes e title s has taken different routes. In earlier years , (1959 ), the yearbook contained a full page picture of one Knight and one Lady. Gradually, every year the pictures become a little more casual, and more _ people were added. Also in the past, the yearbook staff controlled the method which determined who would be honored. But in 1980 Student Council took over the duties.

The Student Council drew up a ballot which consisted of specific qualifications and distributed them to counselors and staff memebers. They then nominated the seniors they felt met the qualifications. The outcome was five "Knights" and five "Ladies" that met the specifications of : 1) involvement in school; 2) involvement in the community; 3) scholastic achievement; 4) respect of facutly ar:id staff; and 5) respect of fellow students. Presented on these two pages are the honored Knights and Ladies of 1986.

Inv olve ment never cease d for Knight Bob Holbert. He was elected to three years of Student Council, Prom King , Homecoming royalty , Class pr esi dent and pre si dent of th e Nebra ska A ssocia tion of Student Councils. He also wa s a member of Debate, Soccer Club , Ski Club and wrote " Ram Bob" for the Clarion

lady Kris Jones enjoyed showing her horse outside of school, but inside school she was a Student Council vice-president, a two year Shirette, Class Officer, French Club treasurer, Prom Queen, and danced in Knight of Knights.

Accompanying her number one rank in the class, she was a three year Honor Roll member, president of German Club , an officer in Nova Club, and earned a seat on the National Honor Society

Student manager for both varsity football and basketball, Knight Jeff Jeter was also an active participant in French Club, "S" Club, and FCA He also performed in two plays and wa s a member of Drama Club. Along with his many activities, he kept his grades on the Honor Roll level for three years and was a member of National Honor Society

Wresling, "S" Club Symphonic and Marching Band and Ski Club were just a few of Knight Randy Goldenstein's accomplishments. He was elected to a Spanish Club office and played football for three years as well as earning a place on the Natinal Honor Society.

Get up and get going

The break of dawn , the start of a day , a new beginning. Mornings are a great experience for some of us, and for others it was little less than a small disaster. The feeling of being alive and refreshed , or the feeling of being dead and grouchy are descriptions of morningtime

Senior Steven Zabel said: "I like mornings because when you go out into the cold crisp air, it tingles every nerve ending in my body and makes my life worth living."

Zabel usually got up at 6:45, stumbled to the shower, got dressed, and then he ate his chocolate fudge pop-tarts with a large glass of milk He then hopped into his Fiat and zoomed to school at 7:25, in order to get his first-row parking spot.

For others, it was sheer misery getting up at the break of dawn. Junior Doug Curry described his morning " I'm lying there and my dad tells me that it is time to get up, I try to wait until the last possible moment to get up, then I plop into the shower. It makes me feel queasy thinking about it."

Senior Jessica Wright had to wake up every Saturday at 5:00 to open up at Village Inn. She said that it really ruins the night before, but she tried to live through it. "I needed the money."

Junior Tricia Phillips said, "I ' d love to be able to sleep in, but for some reason I always wake up early " She said that she really hates mornings. During the school year she woke up at 6:30 and then showered, got dressed, and ate breakfast. During the summer, weekends, and on vacations Phillips got up about 10:30 am.

No matter how students felt about mornings, they were a part of each day and will continue to be. It was just another thing that we had to learn to cope with, or to thrive by, and we did.

-Michelle Dyer and Michelle Pehrson

Getting up at 5:30, junior Kara McGinn struggles to wake up for early morning swim practice.

Hobby is fun, valuable

Businessmen in three-piece suits come into Trade-ATape/Comic Center to pick up reserved comic books, and they aren't for their kids, senior Scott Sutter, a collector, said.

There aren't any stereotypical comic book collectors, according to Sutter, but the owner of Trade-A-Tape, Larry Lorenz, said buyers are "mostly guys anywhere from 12 to 25 years old. It's probably their major hobby."

Comics as a hobby is nothing new, but Lorenz said sales have been going up recently, and Marvel Comics has had record sales in the last few years. He attributes this to comic shops such a Trade-A-Tape, because "your basic g~ocery and drug store doesn't push comics at all. In the '70's, comics were at a low point," but then shops such as his came along.

The most popular comic book series in his shops is "The Uncanny X-men," which is about "several heroes who try to save the world, even while they are the objects of prejudice because they are mutants, and aren't as wholesome as the "Avengers", said senior Sarah Richardson. "They also always seem to be framed."

"X-men" is popular for several reasons. "The characters have a good chemistry," Lorenz said. "People can relate." It · also has great art and great stories, he added.

Sutter said he liked the series because "unlike most comics, these characters also have some shadow of reality. They aren't 'goody-goody' like Superman."

D.C., the publisher of "Superman", "Batman", and "Wonder Woman", has had very bad sales in recent years, Lorenz said. "Wonder Woman" was cancelled in the summer because it "just wasn't selling." Richardson said she was upset about this because she'd been collecting "Wonder Woman" for about seven years, and had 140 issues.

· Prices for comic books range from 65 cents for a plain Marvel comic to $6.95 for a "graphic novel".

Vandals seek revenge

Vandalism-everyone's done it or knows someone who has. But why? What purpose does it serve?

Some students said it ' s a way to waste time; others found it a way to get revenge but most students interviewed felt that fun was the main basis for their actions.

"I enjoy doing it to my friends as a joke and it ' s a great way to inflict damage to my enemies, " said an anonymous junior boy. "It also is kinda fun just to see how much you can get away with."

One previous vandalizer told a common story of when the person got caught for vandalism and was charged a small amount. The next time the person did a similar vandalism, he was charged a much larger amount and was punished severely.

"I think ifs outrageous that I got in so much trouble for such a simple 'prank'. What makes authority feel they can treat me like a criminal for a childish prank," said an unnamed senior boy.

All these unintentional and intentional incidents must be put in their original state, which can take both money and time. Southeast alone has had $3,552 of vandalism done just in the 1984-85 school year.

Vandalism included both risks and bad after affects, but many students felt the fun was worth taking the risks.

As one senior boy said, "It helps the economy because it makes people buy more which then helps our society as a whole prosper, and I have fun helping ."

The knight in the front hall serves as the school mascot, signifying strength and courage. Receiving a test of courage, vandals smashed the glass case, spray~ him blue, and stole his sword.

Tests bring stress

High school students face many stressful situations. One of those situations is test taking.

"We contribute to our own anxieties," said counselor Chuck Evans. "lack of preparation and organization for tests are part of our reasons for anxieties," continued Evans.

Study habits among students differ. "I pay attention in class and review my notes," said senior laura Deckinger about her study habits

Some students become nervous about tests even when they study. "I'd study a few days before and I would go blank when the test was put in front of me," said senior Benny Green. ·

Being physically relaxed and being prepared help a lot, according to Evans.

Sometimes students cram the night before a test. "I study the night before, then when I see the test my mind goes blank," junior Lisa Sebek said.

For others though, the test doesn't bother them. Sophomore Lisa Doriety fit into this catagory. "I just take a test and get what I get," she said.

However a student chose to study they discovered if their methods worked when they got their tests back with a grade on it.

Transfers adjust well

'The classes here are easier than they were in Carmel," Chris Peters said. Peters formally attended Carmel High School in Indiana.

Peters, a senior, started coming to Southeast in August of the year. She notes the differences between Southeast and Carmel. In Carmel there were more clicks. Here the students are very friendly she said.

Carmel also had a closed campus and a smoking lounge for students, said Peters

"Here they are more liberal with what they wear," said sophomore Scott Petro. Petro attended Perkins County High School in Grant~ Nebraska. If you went to Perkins with a crazy hairstyle "you'd probably get beat up," Petro commented.

Perkins county does have open campus "The only place to go is the pizza place," he said The students would just stay at school, he said The school's population was about 105 students Petro commented that the students here are very friendly.

Southeast seemed more exciting to Todd Long, who perferred Southeast. Long attended Northeast during his sophomore year. "The classes here are a lot tougher; they push harder," the senior said. Long said he had some friends here who attended Southeast before he did.

"Everyone dresses how they want to," Susan Murray said. Murray attended Superior High School in Superior, Nebraska. Murray said she likes Southeast better. "There's a lot more to choose from," she said. She said people here are hard to get to know because the school is so big.

-Rose Plank

Many students grow to become bored with their high schools and transfer to another one. Southeast is blessed with the presence of many of these bored students.

Twins share interest

Double takes, double trouble, and double fun-all spell one thing-twins.

"Sharing clothes and getting help on homework" are some advantages sophomores Jodi and Nikki Stineman have found as twins.

"I liked having our birthday's on the same day," said sophomore Susanne Schmelling. Her brother Paul said that being a twin is "neat because you get extra attention."

Being identical twins have given Sam and Steve Clarence, juniors, an extra advantage. At their ninth grade promotion, they switched places. "Everyone knew except our counselors, teachers, and some of the audience," said Sam.

There are some disadvantages, though. Brad Hunt, senior, said that when one does better than the other it can be real easy to become jealous.

"It was hard for me when Jodi made the Southeast Varsity basketball team as a freshman," said Nikki Stineman. "It seemed like she got more attention and knew more people."

Brad Hunt said it is a "drag" especially with graduation coming up. He said he would like more individual attention.

"It bothers me when people ask stupid questions like, 'which one is older?"' said Paul Schmelling.

Twins have been known to experience "unusual happenings". Sam Clarence said that sometines he and Steve find that they are thinking the same thing or singing the same song.

Jodi Stineman said that when she broke her arm, Nikki felt pains in her arm even though nothing was wrong with it. Nikki said that when Jodi gets sick she usually gets sick right after her.

Having mutual interests seems to be a characteristic of twins.

Sam and Steve Clerence are both involved in football and intramural basketball. They said that the only difference between them is their girlfriends.

The Schmellings' and the Stinemans' mutual interests include sports also. Jodi and Nikki are involved in track, basketball, volleyball, and cross country.

Unlilce siamese twins, Lisa and Lori Greathouse are separate beings.

Slim and trim are in

The fitness craze could have been one of many fads that go through this country each year, but instead of becoming one, it seems to have become a permanent tradition. A few years ago seemingly overnight, people began running, lifting weights, taking aerobics classes, and generally becoming fitness fanatics in mass numbers.

The two major ways to become physically fit are the right way and the wrong way. 'Harder isn't necessarily better," said Jazzercise instructor Nina Halama. 'Working out for more than 20 or 30 minutes at the maximum rate pushes the heart past its physiologically sound limits."

Senior Angie Hunt was a participant in Mimi Kuebler's exercise class, Toning For Fitness. She said that it was a good class, because it got the requirement for gym out of the way, and it was a fun way to get in shape. 'You feel much better about yourself when you do something good for your body," said Hunt.

Many new exercise facilities have opened due to the new exercise interest. Jazzercise, for example, a dancefitness program, created by Judi Sheppard Misset, combines exercise with dance routines. Jazzercise had many studios opened before the aerobic craze really began, but this has aided the company in getting a multi-million dollar industry going from coast-to-coast.

Many places such as Mademoiselle, Prairie Life Center, and the Racquet Club have come into being. These establishments ususally offer exercise classes, Nautilus weight equipment, a whirl pool, a swimming pool, and

sometimes a running track. For a base price, members ge t unlimited use of these facilites for a specified period o f time. At Prairie Life Center, this base price is $250 for the initiation fee, and then $40 per month.

Exercise has caused many new businesses to come into being. Dance shops and stores featuring dancing clothe s are much more popular now.

'People get caught up in looking good," said Mim i Kuebler, physical education teacher at Southeast. She saic that she exercises in plain old sweats because she feels it' ~ unnecessary and impractical to dress up to exercise, not t c mention expensive. Leotards can cost from $12 (for plair old saggy black nylon) to $45 or more for a cotton and lycrc blend. Tights are in a slightly lower price range, though.

Kuebler said she thinks that the exercise craze ha ~ caused a new look in fashion. 'People go from their jobs tc someplace to work-out and therefore dress more casual.' Sweats of all sorts, colors, and styles, are much morf popular today, too. People like clothes that are bright an c expensive because they can show off what they have 0 1 have not accomplished.

For whatever reason, people today are exercising Fitness has been important for years, but now society hear ~ more about it, it's more socially accepted, and appeals to , wider variety of people.

As Kuebler put it, ' over the past ten years, peoplt · have become more aware of the fact that keeping you · body healthy makes a more pleasant life for you."

16 is long awaited age ~o,.~s

From the time most students enter junior high until they are 16, they anticipate the time when they'll get their driver ' s license. The long awaited time that they'll no longer have to be carted around in a family station wagon by parents.

There are also those who don't look forward to driving, such was the case with senior Haley Malcom. She was not allowed to get her driver's license until she turned 18, or got a job, whichever came first. Malcom said she didn't feel the need or the desire to drive.

"I'd rather bike or run than drive," said Malcom.

"It's not so bad being driven around," said sophomore Brent Johnson. "My parents aren't too strict about it (being driven around by other people)." But Johnson still anticipated the time when he could drive himself around.

Those who do look forward to driving have their reasons. Junior Liz Doan received a brand new black Pulsar on the 16th birthday. This gave her an incentive to drive.

"I don't know what I did before I got my car. Now it's the only way me and my friends have to get around," Doan said.

There are advantages and also disadvantages of having a driver's license.

Sophomore Mitch Parker said he thought some advantages were "not having to wait for a ride home, going out for lunch, and being able to go shopping without parents."

Disadvantages included high costs of repair, insurance, tickets, and gas.

"I pay for everything- insurance, gas and maintenance," said junior Leanne Davis. "My parents bought the car for me though."

For most students though, receiving their drivers license was an important part of high school life. With licenses, students obtained more freedom and also an added responsibility.

-Stephanie Watts and Paula Danekas

Preparing himself for the difficuh driver's license test, sophomore Jamie Baker studies a driver's handbook.

Sophs learn to adjust

While high school can be very different for different people, some experiences are universal, such as taking the required English 10 and Cit. Issues classes, turning 16, attending pep rallies, and changing from a junior high to Southeast. Entering high school signals that a student has · entered that last phase of public education.

The junior high years have a major influence on what a person does at Southeast. Jesse Petsch who attended Irving said, "I knew people from other schools and that helped me adjust." He also said that he likes high school because there are extr'a-cirrcular activities that he can participate in, while in junior high he had to pursue his interests outside of school.

Most sophomores agreed that hig h school is a challenge. "I defintely have more homework in high school," said Geoff Balser, a previous student of Irving. "But I think I'm learning more "

Steph Neid who attended Pound said, "High school is a lot more work, but it's a lot more fun."

"The work is a lot harder, but having specialized teachers makes its a lot more fun," said Scott Smith who attended Pound. Basler said that he likes the teachers in specialized subjects like biology because he thinks they know a lot in their field; in junior high teachers were not as specialized.

Almost everyone agreed that extra-cirricular activities help a person adjust to high school.

"Clubs help you meet new people; people that have the same interests as you," said Petsch. Jane Peters, of Irving, agreed that clubs provide the opportunity to do a lot of different activities that people find enjoyable.

"There are a lot more interscholastic sports in high school, that offer more school spirit then there was in junior high," said Susan Brown who attended Pound. Students are able to specify their choices and have a more supported atmosphere in high school sports.

Junior Brian Gordon, a previous student of Lefler said: "Junior high was a prison compared to the options we have at Southeast."

Most student agree that although high school involves more work, they welcomed the challenges and benefitted from the many extra activities.

Open campus is one of the many differences between junior high and high school.Taking advantage of the new freedom is a group of sophomores on their way to lunch.

Honor system changes ~oJ'i ~$

Along with all the other changes that took place this year in the school system, honor roll requirements also were revised, and some students may have found it harder to achieve this goal.

The intent of the new honor roll regulations was to make it harder to get on honor roll, and to make it more meaningful to those who do get on it , said Principal Wesley Lauterbach.

The new requirement stated that honor roll participants will be selected on a semester basis with five classes or 25 credit hours required. Students selected must earn a semester's grade point average of 2.00 or better on the 1-7 scale with one being the best.

Certain classes such as summer school, any course taken pass/fail, work-study, and student assisting do not count toward honor roll.

In previous years, requirements for honor roll was 20 credit hours of ones and/or twos with no failing grades.

"I think it's better (the new requirements) because before it was too easy to get on the honor roll," said senior Betty Douglas.

The requirements, which took effect at the beginning of the school year, are the product of a move two years ago by staff and student groups of the four Lincoln Public High Schools. Lauterbach said he has the general impression that Lincoln High raised the issue.

· The decision to put the new requirements into effect was made by the principals of the four high schools, and by Dr. James Travis. Travis is the assistant superintendant of curriculum.

"The feeling for change came to us from the staff and student groups," said Lauterbach.

The last time honor roll regulations were changed was between 10 and 15 years ago.

"I think in changing the honor roll, they were attempting to make it more uniform through the city," said counselor Chuck Evans. "I think it's going to be easier to be on it. It will be more available to more people, and before some people didn't even try to make it (honor roll)." -Derek

Levenberger and Paula Danekas

Quarter report card time is a time of tension as it can decide if ooe can place on honor roll. Junior Holly Grossbart and her mother examine Holly's report card to determine progr~ towards hooor roll.

Facts found in trash

· What do Coke cans, Reese's peanut butter cup wrappers, old passes, Clarions, book covers, milk cartons, McDonalds cups, and a half-eaten pop tart have in common? A lot of these items find their final resting place in a garbage can. ·

When actually thinking about trash, one may find many psychological meanings. For example, from trash one can tell the likes and dislikes of people .

Garbage has been studied a lot, said psychology teacher Tom Douglas. Socialogists have studied the garbage of people all the way back to the cavemen era. By discovering middens (places where the trash was buried), the levels of their culture could be found.

At Southeast, after studying trash, favorite restaurants, candy, and pop choices could be determined.

McDonald ' s was the overall winner in the restaurant department with more cups and paperbags found than any other kind.

"The reason I go to McDonald's is because of the location and the price of food is reasonable," said junior Andrew Russell.

Taco Inn, Wendy's, Runza, and Rax garbage was also frequently seen . .

Coca-cola products dominated students' cola choices. Diet Coke, Coke Classic, and Cherry Coke cans were the most abundant.

When walking down the school halls, one may have seen paper, cups, chewed gum, and gum wrappers on the floor though the janitors swept the halls twice a day or more often if needed.

After collecting all the trash in six dumpsters "jammed way past full," according to custodian Butch Portche, garbage trucks came four to five times a week to haul it away.

-Paula Danekas ·

Lockers are often used for other thinp besides books. Juniors Chad Moller and Dave Maple sift through the refuse to find the materials they need for their next class.

Laughter fills halls 0 ~ 0

Thursday night at 7 p.m the number one television ~$ show on the air comes on. Bill Cosby, star of the number one "Cosby Show", has a special gift The gift is being able to make others laugh.

"Laughter is excellent medicine, " psychology teacher Tom Douglas said. As a teacher , Douglas says he likes to joke around with students. Laughter is a good tension reliever, it also helps a student's state of mind and their physical body, according to Douglas.

Douglas believes one has to be careful when dealing with humor What may be funny to one person may not be funny to another Douglas said . Humor may be in poor taste if it makes fun of a physical condition or an ethnic background added Douglas.

Laughter can be a source of embarassment to some students if others think their laugh is strange.

Stephanie Simons' laugh is one which some students think is a little out of the ordinary. Simons said of her laugh, "it's not funny (tb me), but it's long."

Simons said she has been teased about her laugh. One person suggested that we, "tape it (her laugh) and sell the tape to make money," said Simons.

When not laughing at a comedian or joking with a teacher, many students are found laughing with their friends. "We laugh about a lot of stuff," sophomore Kim Kluth said.

Whoever or whatever students were laughing at during the year, if it had a memorable quality to it, it would be a looked back on and remembered fondly by those involved.

-Carol Yost

An excellent way of relieving stress is to let loose with a boisterous, bellyachin', knee'slappin' laugh.

Names make identity

Whats in a name? Does it make the person-or does the per.son make the name? These questions are often asked. Many students with unique and individual names felt that the name had made a difference in the responses they get from others.

"Everyone always makes fun of me and no one can ever pronounce it right," said sophomore Staci Zwiebel, whose last name is last in the student listing.

Some students found that the responses they get from their names can both humorous and cutting.

"When I was in grade school everyone used to call me 'Oreo', which was funny at first but got old," said senior Ori Twersky. Zwiebel remembered peers using her name in childish rhymes like: "webble, webble don't fall down."

Unique names can also have advantages in situations. "My last name is first in the student listing It makes me feel special at times and gives me authority," said senior Jill Acker.

All names originate from somewhere for some certain reason, but some names seem to have interesting backgrounds.

"My last name originates from Germany and means "onion", I think it is fun having a name that stands for something, but its kinda embarassing being named after a vegetable," said Zwiebel.

"If I had the choice of a common name or mine, I'd rather have mine because its extremly original. If I was in a room of two million people and someone called Ori, I'd be the only one to look," said Twersky.

Senior Ori Twersky displays his nickname, "The Oreq."

Looks valued by many

"It's not how you feel, it's how you look, and you look marvelous."

-Billy Crystal-

This idea has been around since mirrors have been in lockers. Mirrors were glanced at and/or stared at intensly many times during the school day. Even the restroom mirrors got their share of business during the day

Senior Ane Hasselbalch had a mirror in her locker which she used in the morning and after lunch to "touch up" her look.

It was rumored that sophomore girls spent more time ' trying to get that "special look" than any other group at Southeast. Hasselbalch believed this to be true because, "you try to impress everybody when you're a sophomore."

Some students don't even care how they look during the day such as sophomore Jason Brasch, whose version of dressing up was "wearing socks".

"I just throw on my clothes," said Brasch. He added that he usually spends about 40 minutes getting ready in the morning which included time to take a shower but not to eat breakfast. "If there's a clean shirt in the room, I wear it," Brasch said.

Other students spent more time getting ready for a day of school. Hasselbalch said she spent about 50 minutes getting herself together in the morning. Her definition of looking good was, "feeling good about what you're wearing".

Whether students spent a lot of time getting and keeping their "special look" during the day or not too much time on it, was up to each individual. It was all of the different opinions on what looked right that kept the halls of Southeast colorful.

-Troy Vasa and Carol Yost

Before school is a good time to be sure of one's appearance. Struggling for good views of themselves, students prepare their own loob for the approaching day.

At an early morning celebration, Dr. Lauterbach was given a set of stamps b y the faculty in honor of his award. Dr. Schoo, superintendent, presents these stamps that will become a part of Or. Lauterbach's collection.

Lauterbach honored

What he thought was going to be a " hot parent conference " turned out to be hot coffee and donuts at a special award presentation for Principal Wesley Lauterbach by the Student Council and teachers.

The presentation was planned after Lauterbach was named the Outstanding Educator from Nebraska in the "In honor of Excellence" program Vice-pricipal Larry Eaton set the scene by calling Lauterbach the night before telling him that there was to be "a hot parent conference " the next morning Instead, Lauterbach was suprised by the secret party

The program honoring Lauterbach was sponsored by the National Association of Secondary School Principals and the Burger King Corporation 51 principals and 52 teachers were chosen to paarticipate in the nation's only joint program of recognition of principals and teachers. All involved received a five day all expense paid trip to Florida for a series of meetings concerning education.

"I was surprised and pleased, " said Lauterbach about the honor. "It's nice to be recognized and to be representing a lot of people. "

Lauterbach was selected by the State Secondary Principal Association from a list of nominees based on criteria established by the NASSP.

"Basically to be nominated, you need to be from programs well viewed by outsiders," Lauterbach said

Lauterbach began his career in education after graduating from Friends University in Wichita, Kansas with a bachelor's degree. He taught high school social studies and then became an assistant principal. When an opening became available at Southeast for principal, Lauterbach applied and was chosen to be principal in the 1964-65 school year.

"A principal is seen as a leader and the manager of the school, " said Lauterbach.

He received his masters degree from Wichita State University, and his doctorite degree from the University of Northern Colorado in Greeley.

"Being around people" is what Lauterbach said he liked best about his job. "I enjoy being principal because things are always different and time passes quickly."

In the same way Hitler was free from ridicule in his bunker, teachers find peace and happin~ in the f acuity lounge.

No students allowed!

"Knock, knock!!"

The door slowly creaks open to reveal a dark shadowy conglomoration of human flesh. ·

" What do you want?" the authority figure barked.

"Can I observe what actually goes on in the teacher ' s lounge?" I pleasantly inquired.

" No "

An aura of mystery surrounded the faculty lounge, and many teachers felt that the lounge was their only place of privacy. I tried to take in the atmosphere with a critical eye, and paint a true-to - life picture of what the lounge is actually like.

I encountered an obstacle on my journey An unnamed vice-principal all but became physically violent as he tried to prevent two defenseless reporters from jotting down irrelevent facts concerning the lounge.

I did, however, catch a glimpse of the inner decor

There is, of course, furniture. But the e xtra luxuries are what really set the lounge apart from the rest of the school. Some of the many include: numerous electric coffee pots, a larger than most microwave oven, the normal, everyday pop and candy machines (cheaper, of course), and plush, rust colored wall-to-wall carpeting.

But this glimpse was seen through a cloud of smoke. Though we now know some of the physical features of this mysterious room , we have little insight as to the actual activities that take place there.

This left us with doubt as to whether or not something suspicious happened behind the scenes. Henceforth, we cannot conclude anything based upon concrete evidence as to what REALLY goes on in the faculty lounge.

Keys to the future Means to the real world

Some students tried to get by toking just the required minimal courses required for graduation from high school But students also found that there ore some courses that aren ' t necessarily required to graduate , but fulfill practical purposes for preparing for the " harsh, cold, real world"

· A few of the more popular courses for practical purposes inclJded: Drivers Education, typing , nnd the various computer courses offered. Each one of these classes served different purposes, but all of them offered valuable information for use in the real world.

Drivers Education was a class that was beneficial to not only the student by preparing him to be on experienced driver. There were three ports to the course One was the actual driving. This was when the student actively faced the harsh realities of the real rood, and it's potential cotostrophies. But, the student first hod interaction with these cotostrophies through practice on the simulator.

The simulator provides a practice of " real" situations through a machine where the accidents that happen only result in a " beep" from the practice screen.The student was also able to learn of these situations through the classroom lectures also offered with Drivers Ed. Classes were taught by Gail Daum, but other teachers assisted him with the driving portion of the class.

Sometimes there was on unusual amount of excitement that went along with the driving port of the course. Sophomore Clint Johnson remembered a time when a funny happening took place while he was toking the driving port with Baum. "t,..;.,r. Baum told someone to toke a

U-turn on the highway, but it was illegal. The funny port is that my friend did it anyway."

Typing was another of the essential classes that many students took. Many different classes were offered depending on the level of skill one was in. The beginning course taught students the basic keyboard and wo~ed on speed, typing reports and manuscripts

· Senior Debbie Thompson said "I took typing to help me prepare for the future , and I thought that it would be on easy way to get some credit points ." The typing skills helped students prepare themselves for a computer class , as the keyboards were similar.

The courses offered in the computer science area ranged from computer literacy, to computer programming, and advanced computer programming. Computer Literacy generally dealt with learning · the keyboard and the concepts behind the computer. Very little programming was taught in this course Computer Programming and Advonced Computer Programming dealt with general commands that mode the computer perform certain operations.

Don Hohensee, who taught a course on Computer Programming said " Whereas most courses teach the student how to use the computer, programming teaches the students how to manipulate the computer."

Junior Ben Horris said he took electives such as a computer course " because our society is becoming more and more computer orientated. I feel that it is important to get a good background in these areas."

One big joy of high school is being old enough to drive: Leaming this privileged skill is done with driver's education and Bill Stephenson.

Forgetting the many hours spent in the dossroom acquiring the knowledge for driving. most students ore more than excited when they first get a chance to get behind the wheel.

Even though computers ~re on inaeosingly common sight to most students, many, like senior Bob Blumenstock and junior Bobbie Johnson. still need added assistance from a computer doss. Academics/93

Fine tuning Gearing toward body tuning

Either tuning or toning was the objective of music, physical education, and car core classes. Students were able to use their talents or learn new skills to improve themselves.

Whether just getting in shape or getting requirements out of the way, physical education classes proved to be fun and needed break from "traditional" classes.

A wide variety of classes such as Aerobics, Weight-lifting, Ute-saving, Team Sports, or Recreational games fulfilled student's interests. Each clas.s was worth 2.5 credit hours and a total of 5.0 credits of P.E. were required to qraduate.

A total of 12 different music classes were offered to students. There were four instrumental groups, seven vocal groups, and a music theory class second semester. New to the music department wet, a sophomore ensemble for girls called Knightengoles.

Nost of the groups ore select groups and required auditions. Each group performed many times during \

the year at school functions, out in the community, and competitions.

"I love performing," said sophomore Lori Goin who was involved in Knight Sounds and in Band. "After a performance that goes well, you feel that all your hard work paid off."

Though no actual homework was involved in these classes, students practiced both in and outside of class to perfect their part. For those with mechanical minds or those who were just interested in how their most used and essential possession, their car, runs, automotive classes were available.

"I knew nothing about cars, and I decidea I wonted and needed to know more about them," said junior John Lydick who took Automotive Tune-up.

Classes for both beginners and students experienced in mechanics were offered.

"It saves me money. I con tune my car myself now," said Lydick.

-Paulo Danekas

Adding their well-tuned voices to a group is what these sopranos are doing to make gir1s chorus the high quality music that it is.

Though seemingly out numbered by his opponent. junior Mike Renn exerts much effort to make a point for his team

Keeping their bodies fine-tuned through strenuous exercises to music. these Body Toning students do some leg and thighslendering motions while a fellow bodytoner takes her tum leading the class.

Aided by the help of a student teacher mixed chorus is perfecting their harmonious runes by practicing daily to attain the sound rheywant.

Emphas~ing his point. John Kennedy explains to his class rhe way to care for a car. Basic car care is taken by many to spore them the expense of service stations or small repoirs they could do themselves.

Tuning your body does ,:tot always hove to be a tedious job In recreational games, they join fitness with fun. The class here plays a frien9ly game of base-soccer. I

Building upon basic skills

In order to gain the most from their high school years, some students pursue interests which may or may not lead to a career. For students who knew what their career perference was, some took advantage of the courses that would help them in fhe future These were the courses that specialized in on extremely specific area and allowed students to expand upon their own · interests. Courses like these allowed students to develop their own personality and to mainstream their interests into one specific channel. These courses were similar to college prep classes, as they allowed students more choices for college.

Architecture , Art, Sewing, and Photography were four of the areas in which some students took to enhance their own "the art of living". Each of these areas specifically related to the interests of the person toking them.

Architecture offered three classes, each of which varied depending upon difficulty. Architecture I was the prerequisite for Architecture II, and soon

Senior Jeff Drown stated, "I feel that courses in specialized areas such as architecture ore on invaluable asset to our educational system. Students enjoy them because they ore within their range of interests, and ore college prepatory They ore more likely to put more interest in on area that they enjoy."

Drown, on Architecture I, student enjoyed the freedom associated with the class. "You could work at the rote which you felt comfortable with, there wasn't a whole lot of pressure." Robert Holl, who retired at the end of first semester, hod the ability to teach you what you needed to know, and he prepared his students for the college courses on architecture.

Art was another area where students could be creative. Don Dyorth said that " art classes were a chance for students to individualize and express their feelings in a manner that was not alien to them. Some people found that writing was their way of expressing their innermost thoughts, but art was the some means for other people.

Sewing was not only token by females, but also by moles. This class could either prepare students for a career in the textile area, or provide a skill useful in everyday living. Sewing taught students the basic skills needed to perform the tasks that one was most likely to use Senior Sharon Dobbs said , " I feel that sewing is a very useful thing to learn, but I'm used to buying my clothes, not making them, so I hove never token the class and I never will."

Photography was another way that people hod to express their feel inos. Pictures were a means of expressing what was not said Photographers enjoyed participating in not only something that was recognized as a hobby, but something that was a notional pastime .

Classes included beginning photography; and two advanced courses. Deginning photography taught students the history of photography and the developing and printing of pictures. The advanced courses worked on picture angles, light, and special effects.

These classes weren't classified as college preparory, but they allowed a student to decide if this was the job for them. Students tended to do somewhat better in them, because they took them out of choice and interests, not out of requirements.

'Variety, tha t' s the sp ice of life ," said deportment cha irman Kathie Uhrmacher about how she kept her French classes interesting A variety of language classes from French to sign language were offered , satisfying a variety of interests

Span ish , Germon , French and Latin were available as before , and a new class , combining French 7-8 and French 9-1 0 , was created by Uhrmacher French 7-10 was " more geared to the college-type conversation and composition ," she said It was designed for people who hod already learned language skills and enough French to speak " all French , all the time. "

" It's been real successful, " Uhrmacher said. She noted that she was pleased with the way the just-French conversation hod worked , and how the community projects, such as teaching elementary school students, showed people "what high school kids are really like , not just what the media tells them ." Students learned skills such as " memorization , creativity, and application " in language classes , Uhrmacher said , as well as " neat, esthetic things like art and culture that they m ight not get in other classes ."

The smallest language class , by for , was Latin. Instead of being tutored , Traci Austin , Dick Tenhulzen , and Sarah Richardson were taught Latin as a group. " It's more interesting with more people in it," Austin said. Aside from learning new words in a foreign language , students hod the opportunity to learn new English words in Vocabulary class by studying

the origin and composition of words and Greek and Latin roots and affixes

" It's the best class to toke in the whole school ," junior Gory Hanno said enthusiastically " It's something you ' ll actually use. "

Teacher Kathy Steinke called toking Vocabulary " almost cruc ial " because as the depth and complexity of what a student reads increases, a brooder vocabulary is necessary to understand it

To make better use of the many words in their vocabularies, some students took Grammar. Understanding the basic structure of the language may help in writing , Steinke said.

One class that wasn 't written into the course description book was Sign Language. Some students took it for on entire semester, and some opted for just one quarter.

Teacher Ellen Burton said that some students who were going to toke Sign Language for just one quarter and then a gym class the next quarter hod changed their plans to toke more Sign Language. " They said ,'I've sacrificed my body for Sign Language! "' Burton said

Sign Language students not only learned how to communicate with acoustically handicapped people , but they were also taught "about hearing loss, deaf culture , and the implications of hearing loss," Burton said.

Whether it was in a foreign language, sign language, or English, how you said it was just as important as what was said

Records, events relived

Ancient Egyptian culture, Greek civilization, the Protestant Reformation, the Renaissance, the industrial revolution, and the U.S. decision to drop the atomic bomb ore only a few of the many topics that were covered each day in the various history related classes at Southeast. Possibly because certain social studies classes were required, some students may hove felt hostility toward their class.

"I took American History because my mom mode me," complained junior Stephanie Gray

To the contrary, said teacher Nancy O'Brien, history is a valuable subject. "It's very important for students to understand the history'· of their society and culture. It gives them a better base to deal with the world today," O'Brien said.

There were four regular history classes offered at Southeast: World Studies (two semesters), Global Perspectives (one semester), Modern U.S. History (one semester), and Survey American History (two semesters). There was also another, onesemester class-Citizenship Issues-that incorporated historical ideas into a present-day context.

Five credit points from each of the three social studies categories, Global Learning, Modern U.S., and Citizenship Issues, were required for graduation.

Two courses fulfilled the Global Learning requirement, Global Perspectives and World Studies. Global Perspectives, while not strictly a history class, looked at factors from the post that influence the present-day world. The class studied geography, cultures, stages of notional development, the inter-dependence of notions, and one moiorworld problem.

''It gives the kids some exposure to ideas and criteria that they will be reading about as adults," said teacher Pot Kohl.

World Studies deair with world history from approximately 6(X)() B.C. to the present. Most of the focus of the course was on western cMlizo-

tion, according to teacher Michael Troester.

''Western culture is the most important for us in the United States, so we concentrate on it, though we will occasionally go into other areas," Troester said.

Both Global Perspectives and World Studies tried to incorporate the some concepts and meet the some requirements, but "some colleges still wont on applicant to hove a western history course, which this fulfills," Troester said.

"I really enjoyed World Studies," said Gray. "The teacher con either make a history class interesting or boring and Mrs. O'Brien mode it fun."

To meet the Modern U.S. requirement students could toke either Modern U.S History class or American History. Modern U.S. dealt with the 1930s to the present, while American History started with the colonial period.Ml. RoyChurchill, who taught both classes, said that American History hod "the advantage of bringing a brood perspective to the course,'' while Modern U.S dealt more intensively with current issues.

"I like American History because the teacher goes beyond the book, and lectures about more in depth things," junior John Dowson said.

Citizenship Issues was required for all seniors for graduation. Students studied the factors that make for responsible citizenship , the structure of government, and the process of governmental decision making.

In addition, each student was required to complete at least 20 hours of community service volunteer work.

"It is designed to provide every student with on opportunity to fulfill their citizenship responsibilities," said teacher Michael Wore.

But senior Rob Walker disagreed with the requirement, saying "It isn't volunteer work if it's required, so it defeats the purpose."

The "real" world Business world awaits

Southeast offered a variety of classes for the business minded individual.

Marketing 1-11 deoltwith retailing, wholesaling, and management. To be more specific, a student learned about the economics of the free enterprise system, advertising, career opportunities, getting a job, and other related subjects. One hod to be at least a junior to toke Marketing 1-11, and a senior to toke Marketing Ill-IV.

Marketing Ill-IV worked more with the actual running of a business. Topics discussed were management, merchandising, operations, business communications, and other basics of running a business.

A student could also toke f'.Aarketing Occupations Internship 1-11. That entailed maintaining employment, developing responsibility, and using marketing skills.

Business Low was a senior class that was offered. As the course title revealed, it dealt with the legalities of business-courts, contracts, boilments, wills, insurance, credit, and personal low The course also covered commercial paper, real estate, employment, and credit.

Another class offered was Dusi-

ness Principals. It dealt with free enterprise, salesmanship, personnel relations, purchasing, pricing, and other related topics

Amie Callahan, sophomore, said, "It <Business Principals) should really help me in the future."

Personal Finance seemed to be a popular class. Students toking the doss learned about managing their own money. That entailed studying budgets, banking, taxes, insurance, credit, and investments.

"I liked the doss," said junior Deb O'Connell. "It didn't just talk about something you didn't work · with. It taught you about reality."

A student could also toke Accounting 1-11. Some of the subject matter was the accounting cycle, payrolls, depreciation, and computer accounting. The course helped students "to organize personal records and analyze business records," said Sue Seeman, accounting teacher. An ambitious student could toke College Accounting. This doss covers accounting fundamentals as studied through firms.

Southeast hos a good variety of courses designed to prepare students for the real wortd.

It's all inyour head

Classes become think tank

High school is quoted many times as being the time and place to "find" yourself. It's the time to find out what really makes you be you and why you do the things that you do. Dur many students got so wrapped up in what was going on around them, they didn't really toke the time ro think about themselves .

To give the students a chance to learn about themselves and others, the schoo l offered a choice of social · science classes. The classes were: psychology, philosophy, relationships, and human behavior. Each student hod to toke at least one of these classes to meet graduation requirements. ·

Psychology was a class that dealt with how the mind worked and was the basics of learning about why people do what they do. Some students took the class for the requirement aspect, others for future or present interest in understanding and trying to analyze what really makes them do what they do

"I don't know if the class hos done anything for me except to make me analyze my and my friends' behavior, which may be , good or bod," said junior Marcus &liters.

In philosophy, the students got a chance to learn and discuss the

different philosophers and philosophies. It gave the students a chance to see how others view things and why

"I took the class because I wonted to organize my thoughts in a logical manner and be able to decide from others' thoughts and my own, how to best achieve this," said senoir Ann &ldomi.

"Through Human Dehovior we try to develop the student potential by recognizing each one is a special, unique individual who hos much to contribute," said Corene Herbster. Human behavior was a class that dealt with human emotion and how to hondlee those emotions in a rational way. The class also concentrated on the importance of each individual and how to meet each person's individual needs and feelings.

Junior Alice f3unge said, "I thought it sounded like on interesting class that might make me look at what I do, and others in different perspective.''

Each course dealt with a different port of the human mind, but all related in that they dealt with helping each student try to become in better grasp of their own identity and individuality.

When pursuing a postition on e ither the Clarion or Shield staffs, except for a photgropher position , a student must first toke a course known as Journalism 1. This course gives a brood description of the main thing needed to produce a paper or a yearbook

The students ore required to learn the fundamentals of writing , write the ir own stories and make layouts The class also produced a newspaper, the J-1 Clarion , by themselves.

The Shield staff consisted of 19 people , each serving a different purpose. The co-editors , Shelly Altgilbers and Julio Sellmyer, held the top positions on staff, and were in charge of the overall results and decisions . The copy staff wrote and edited all ·the stories. The pictures were token by the photgrophy staff, and the layout staff produced the pages in the book using the copy and the pictures.

The Clarion is similior in the jobs that ore required to be filled The Clarion staff is broken down into

For each one of the positions, there were 19 selected students to fill them l3oth the Shield and Clarion staffs hod to deal with deadlines (a specific dote for the wo~ to be done) Usually a paper come out every three weeks

" Deadlines ore really important and ore not met often , so this rquires us to do double amount of wo~ at times ," sa id junior writer Madeleine Craig

Students that hove chosen these elective classes all chose them for various reasons Some found on interest in being involved , learning to enchonce skills in certa in areas, and some found that their future pursuit may lie in one of these areas

" It's giving me needed experience in the journolsim field that could be invaluable to a career in journalism or in any other field. It gives me the chance to develop many different areas, " said junior writer Tim SiedelL

Above and beyond A.P. classes test students

Advanced placement and college level courses allowed students to do college level wo~ and possibly earn college credit while still in high school.

" I wonted to try something that sounded harder," said senior Steve Halvorson about why he chose to toke college accounting " I learned o lot from it," he added

" I hope that they' ll fee l that they've been in o challenging and intellectual community, " said Advanced Placement English teacher Kerstin YonDervoortoboutwhotshe hoped students got out of her class.

YonDervoort felt that advanced placement classes should be small because of, " limitations of time on paper grading " She added that she wouldn 't wont more students to toke her class unless she could teach four or five sections of it

" Interested in learning , self-starters , and highly creative ," was the way YonDervoort described most students who took on advanced placement class " I wonted a challenge more or less," said Halvorson.

Many students think there should be more of a chance to toke advanced placement classes as well as o bigger variety of classes to choose from.

" I would like to see more AP classes offered ," said senior Sarah Richardson She said she would like

to see classes in world history and citizenship issues while Halvorson would like to see more classes in the arts , both spoken and written " If would be nice ," said YonDervoort about having more advanced placement classes.

According to which college a student chose to attend , they could receive o certain amount of credit ofter toking on advanced placement test Other colleges , such as the University of Nebraska , Nebraska Wesleyan , and Kearney State College would give o student credit if they took the next higher course on campus and passed it with o 'C or better , according to Advanced Placement Calculus teacher Leonerd Nickerson

Students looking toward the future and co llege credit and wonting a challenge while in high school could be found doing things most other students wouldn 't

In Advanced Placement English , for example , students were required to read classic books and then write papers on them " I wouldn't hove read the books on my own ," said Richardson.

Whether a student took on advanced class in moth , English, or history, the wo~ was meaningful for them.

To graduate a student must hove ten credits in both moth and science , but many students chose to toke more of these classes because of college requirements.

''They soy you should toke three years of science to prepare you for college ," said senior Stephanie Ouckwolter This was her reason for toking physics

Moth teacher Koren Word thought more moth classes should be required '-' because the majority of Southeast students ore college bound ." She said the way things ore set up now, a student does not hove to toke moth during their junior and senior years and they could hove a " real hard time" once they get to college.

Some students who were college bound still didn ' t toke more than the requirements specified.

''I'm going to go into music or art," said sophomore Chris Ellenwood, " so it's doubtful that I'll toke more ." Ellenwood was a student in Judy Oogle' s Algebra 3-4 class.

Moth classes usuol ly consisted of memorizing theorems, the theories behind them, and how to use them. Word sow this as unfortunate. She said one of moth 's main values was that of problem solving skills, and that moth teachers as a whole , were not doing a good of job of teaching this as they could be doing.

Word also said that moth exercises brain matter and teaches frustration.

While moth classes involved teaching theorems and problem solving skills, science classes involved a lot of experiements

Senior Sharilyn Kerns said her chemistry class fol lowed the pattern of toking notes, doing lobs, and then toking tests Ouckwolter said physics was about the some except at times the teacher would do experiments and the students would just watch "Watching experiments and learning about different things" were Ouckwolter' sfovorive part of physics. Whatever level of moth or science a student was toking most agreed that the long assignments and tests were their least favorite part of the class.

Expressing through scripts

Expressing themselves was a common goal for students enrolled in drama , speech, and debate classes. In these closses,,students learned the importance of communication and speaking in front of groups

Performing in front of others took talent and also some kind of training. Deginning and Advanced Drama classes were available to students interested in the theater

" It's fun , and it gives you a chance to perform in front of peers," said senior Angie Cortwright. " It also perpares you to perfrom in front of a real audience. "

Students spent their clos.stime doing improvisations and memorizing scenes from various types of theater from comedy to Shakesphere.

" Drama helps your speaking techniques. It's also easier to talk in front of groups," Cortwright said

Speech and debate classes were also offered to students wishing to learn or to improve their verbal skills The communication requirement could be fulfilled by toking these classes also.

Speech and debate classes involved using communication ski IIs in a competitive way Students learned how to compete using their speaking skills either in presenting speeches or debating with others on a certain subject

" Debate is fun for people who like to think and argue and who would like to learn to argue well, " said speech teacher Melis.so 13eoll.

Clos.stime was spent time preparing research, practicing one's speech for a tournament, or exchanging new ideas on arguments on debate rounds.

" I took the class because it would help me when I go into low," said senior Evelyn Decker.

In speech competition , there were eight different events students could participate in. Anything " from making things up on the spur of the moment(imprompto) to memorizing literature and bring it to life for the audience " was all port of speech competition according to 13eoll

There were two branches in debate- Lincoln-Douglas debate and Policy debate Lincoln-Douglas debate was based upon values, and students took a stand to defend their opinions on various given topics

Policy debate was based on is.sues that were in Congress ( or that could be·in Congress.) One topic is decided on each year, and all policy debaters in the United States use this subject The issue this year dea!twith the quality of water in the U.S.

" The hardest port is probably doing the initial research to get the arguments prepared," said Decker.

Some people put their stomachs on hold and chose their studies over the consumption of food.

For those who are either sophomores , cartess , or moneyless, the cafeteria provides a well balanced nutritional meal from the four food groups for only ~1 05 for a Type A lunch

Many decisions are involved with lunch

Whether to go out or stay at school. where to go if your go out and finally - whet to order.

Foodlorthought

Cook up a good budget

Food is one of the most vital things to each humon's existonce It con be consumed in large or small quantities. It comes in many different colors , shapes, and sizes.

Learning how to prepare this food is the main purpose of the Food and Nutrition I and II classes Doth classes were taught by Corrine Herbster

In the class, students received a basis for planning and cooking their meals, information on safety and sanitation , and budgeting " Nutrition for teenagers" was what Herbster thought was of high value to the students. The students learned the various substitutes for ' Junk-food snacks" as well as the importance of fruits and vegetables. The students also hod a chance to cook a full meal using the four basic food groups After experimenting with different foods through the semester, the students got a chance to feast upon a holiday meal with · all of the trimmings around Thanksgiving time.

"The Thanksgiving meal was my favorite to fix and to eat," said senior Lisa Miller. She also enjoyed learning the techniques of grilling

To be able to make the foods one wonted , a person hod to be able to afford them. Budgeting was another topic stressed in the class.

Herbster said students in the class second semester used grocery stores as a classroom much of the time. Students compared prices, brands, and sizes of the same products to see which was the most economical.

" I would encourage people to toke foods doss, because it teaches you how to use a budget if you move out of the house ," said Miller

Budgeting was also a problem when it come to lunch Options open to students were many. These included the cafeteria, bringing something from home, not eating, going home , or resorting to one of the many fast food places around the school

Fast food was the most expensive of the choices but also the most desirable by students. " It's more fun to go out," said sophomore Neal Perkins.

Money for lunch come from many different sources Two of the most commonly used were parents and jobs "I pay for lunch out of my money that I earn,'' junior Pot Narrow said

Going out for lunch provided students with a break from the monotonous schedule of the school day Senior Mike Miller said, "My friends and I con get away from school and not hove to worry about people listening to everything we say."

Home work to go Studies knock nightly

For some students, school didn 't end with the final bell at 2 :J5 or J :J5 , but went on into the night This was mainly due to homework that was given by most teachers

Some classes didn ' t involve much homework , but the majority of classes were structured , and homework was impe~otive

" I definitely believe in homework, " said moth teacher Leonard Nickerson " The way time is stnJctured , you don't hove time in class to get oil the work done ." Nickerson 's homework pol icy was to check homework everyday, and if someone didn 't do his homework, one percentage grade was subtracted from the student's grade.

Many students found different ways to get this required work out of the way

Study halls were a method used by many to complete homework " I don 't hove any homework to toke home because I do it all in studyholl ,,, said sophomore Keith Richter .

Oecouse of new school pol icy, study halls were mandatory to attend if they appeared on a student's schedule.

Attendence was token everyday, and students were expected to treat it as a normal class. There was a sign-in and sign-out sheet that students hod to use if they went out of the cafeteria. Posses were also needed, but no posses to one's locker were given.

Not al I students took advantage

of the study time though Some could be found writing notes , listening to music , or sitting and wasting time

" I just sit and sleep ," said sophomore Mott 13ouwens who requested a study hall.

Others hod a studyholl given to them not by their own choice 13iel dropped a class , and it was too late to start another . Another way to complete homework was with the help of a tutor. Tutors could be either friends just helping other friends with on assignment or college students looking for extra money.

Junior Jenny Sartori was a tutor in moth She got paid for turoring because her parents thought she would toke it more seriously if she was being paid.

" I thought itwos a good experience ," said Sartori. She said she would do it ·again if somebody asked her to and she hod the time.

Sartori thought tutors were a good idea. She added that a lot of people hove more trouble than they ore willing to admit so there oren 't too many tutors around.

For those who chose to do their homework, a lot of effort and determination was put into it (most of the time). This sometimes resulted in a very late night with the lights going out at 1:JO AM. and students appearing sleepily at school the next morning.

Whether a student excells at a subject or needs a little extra help. tutoring is a good way to help a student get to the proper level.

Seniors Todd Splain and Adam Brady get that special attention.

Earty morning cram sessions is another possible way of getting the day·s assignment done Morning people can do now what they didn 't do the night before.

Getting extra information needed for a class or project is a reason many students frequently use the library. Senior Matt Nielson looks for a specific book to help get his homework done.

Off the wall News in unusual forms

Youwalk into the bathroom stand in front of the mirror, and the writing on the ledge in front of you catches your eye " Susanna loves Trevor. " or " For a good time coll 42J-xxxx " These were familiar phrases thc1t hove been seen around the halls , walls, and bathrooms of Southeast High School , or any school from now until eternity.

Senior Sherry Biel said that " reading the bathroom doors and wol ls gives you some idea as to who hates who , who is in love with who , and certain other unmentionable things ."

Another interesting itE~m that kept life at school from being too dul I, was the appearance of o variety of signs around the schqo1 These signs did include the ones wishing friends a happy birthday, good on a game , or the famous cheerleoding signs wishing every team ever heard of " good luck ".

Some other hallway decorations include the announcements of " lost chance to buy a yearbook, " or " today is the lost day to enter in the Clarion Classic."

Oiel said she thinks that these signs provide color to hallways be-

sides " providing spirit, information , and giving the pep club something to do ." While some students don 't even notice the signs, or wouldn 't know if they dissoppeored , others did To the otheletes, and those others who were recognized , the signs could ploy on important role in their lives The signs placed on the lockers during spirit week recognized the athletes and gave the pep dubbers o chance to dote on their favorite mole or female BEEP BEEP BEEP Mumble moreble blomerskon morbloys enoncjerents .

Ars Nova Coro

A:rs Nova Coro was a selective ensemble on the varshy level. Eighteen juniors and seniors made up the group which sang jazz and madrigal music. Madrigal music are four part imitative songs WTitten in the language of the composer which was usually Italian or English.

"I like singing madrigal music because it's a unique kind of music that you'll never hear anywhere else·· said senior Scott McEwen, a second year member of the group

The group performed at community events. school concerts, and competitions

One of the choir's awards was a first place rating in the Jazz Sweepstakes and a first place rating for a Jazz Choir in the Northwest Missouri State Contest

"Everyone works well together, and I think it's a great accomplishment to have 16 only people and produce the quallty of music we do," McEwen said.

Art Masters

"To provide an outlet for students' creative and artistic talents" iS what semor Bill Griffin said of the purpose for the club Art Masters.

Art Masters sponsored throughout the year many interesting and cultural field trips for their members.

At the end of the year there was an art exhibit in Omaha, which consisted of at least two pieces of art ( any form) entered by each student These materials could not have been something produced for a classroom assignment.

CLUBS

FHA

Future Homemakers of America (FHA) was a service-oriented club that existed to "support those people who don't have the benefit of strong families," according to sponsor Gladys Helm. FHA worked with such organizations as Child Protective Services and the Friendship Horne (which exists for abused spouses).

While being a Home Economics student was a requirement for joining FHA. rela1ionships and human development were areas of focus ra1her than "the traditional areas like food or clothing," Helm said. Dilferent projects were pursued to help develop these areas. Some FHA members were involved with a personal growth program called "Power of One". It emphasized different areas of development; for example, decision making or family rela1ionships.

In January Southeast hosted a district contest for over 200 FHA members. Darla Johnson, who was District President. competed in the state version of the contest. Johnson also attended the na1ional FHA convention.

Southeast officers were: Julie Lechner, president; Nancy Florian, vice-president; Stephanie Titsworth, secretary, Stephanie Simons, treasurer; and Susan Parks, historian.

'We hope it will make better leaders and stronger families," Helm said.

Flag Corps

A new form of halftime entertainment was unveiled on February 18 This entertainment was a 16 member flag corps. The corps had originally planned to perform with the band during football season but due to the fact tha1 the flags did not arrive until mid-December plans had to be changed.

Junior member Lee Witt said she joined because, "It was something difierent and it sounded like fun."

Rehearsals started in January and went from 7:00-8:00 every morning before school. The sponsors were Bob Krueger and flag specialist Joyce Thimgan.

Auditions were held in the spring for next years members.

French Club

"French club was so big it was a good way to meet people because every grade was involved," said junior vice-president Stephanie Feistner.

French club did fit the definition of big by having 21 O members. It was the largest foreign language club.

The reasons for this varied. It could be because of students' interest in the language, or the parties, but the greatest possibility was that of the trip the club took

in March.

The trip was a three day trip to Chicagc The trip ev~nts included a visit to the Al I Institute and shopping. "It was a reall i good time, something I will definitely go on again and will always rememeber," said junior Nelle Woods.

French club earned money for the triJ: and other activities by dues and fund raiser., The other activities that the club wm invloved in were the annual Boulliabaiss :: party, soccer game, and Bananas Post€ 1 party. "The Boulliabaisse party went ove 1 well, with 125 people to serve this Frenc soup! ' said sponsor Ka1hie Uhramacher.

Club officers were: president Mik, Dahm, vice-president Stephanie Feistne; secretary Madeleine Craig, treasurer Bet11 Gaerm, newsletter Shelia Hascalll, an< I social chairmans Erleen Hatfield and Ils : Wendrott.

"French club really has advantages cf being a way to learn about the languag i and traditions outside of a class roor 1 environment," said Feistner.

Future Problem Solving

"The purpose is to take and develo:: creative thinking skills by practicmg c · problems that might occur in the future ' said Mike Ware. Future Problem Solvin ; Club sponsor.

In its first year, Future Problem Solvin Club was organized at Southeast Hig · School to give students in all grades a · opportunity to learn and practice creativ: thin.king skills in an international compet tive program. Students learn proble1 solving strategies which they apply t possible future problem situations. Clu members work in teams of three to five in a after school social atmosphere.

These teams were given practice prol, lems which they work on and solve The11 were three of these practice problems. Th . goal, when solving these problems. was t get to the State Bowl (the state Futu1 Problem Solving tournament) which we held in Kearney, Nebraska.

DISHING UP A BOWLFUL of "fish" stew, French Club sponsor Kathie Urhrnacher continues the Boullabaise tradition.

Key Club

Key Club "has a mission to serve both · the community and the school," said sponsor Ellen Burton. Since Key club was sponsored by the Kiwanis club they participated in some community activities with 1 them. she said.

The club had a vartety of service projects i!lcluding one in cooperation with Quaker Oats Company called Save-the-Children, in which they helped raise money for A1rican drought victims. They also rang bells for the Salvation Army, prepared the Southeast student directory, and held a pancake feed.

Sabrina Felber was president. Angie , Cisney served as vice-president, and Randy Bright was secretary/treasurer. Josette Myers was elected Governor for the Nebraskarowa district.

"For a lot of students, it's the first opportunity for developing leaderhsip skill," · Burton said.

Knightengales

Knightengales was a new all girls' select ensemble added to the music department this year. The group was formed because ot tri.e high number of students interested in the music program. Membership consisted of 27 sophomores who auditioned for the group the sprmg before their sophomore year.

"We decided what kind of music we wanted to sing, and we all thought of suggestions for a name, then voted on them. Mrs. Stinner (first semester music teacher) had to pick Knightengales though, because 1 we couldn't decide," said member Roxanne Kleman.

The group per1ormed at community, civic and school functions. A requirement of being in Knightengales was to be in another music ensemble such as band, orchestra, or mixed chorus.

Knight Sounds

Getting out of classes for per1ormances was a must if a student was a member of a singing group such as Knight Sounds.

"We've given a lot of per1ormances this f year." said teacher Ann Lewis. "We perform 1 mostly at church functions, nursing homes, < and for community organizations."

Knight Sounds was a select swing choir { for sophomores. The 18 member group sang swing, jazz, and show choir music and .( related the music with dance to entertain audiences.

"I think the group is one of the best E! groups I've ever been in," said member David Quade. "Everyone has a special talent

for singing."

German club

"German club is one of the smaller clubs, but we do fun and interesting things,"

satd senior Scott Sutter.

The club started off the fun of the year by having a fall picnic. That then lead into other varities of activities such as a soccer game against the Spanish and French clubs. Other parties and services projects were then held.

The Fashing party was their next party which was a masquerade party. The hanging of the advent wreath in front hall was also a task performed by the German Club. Their funds for these activities were gained by selling of gummy bears and advent calendars.

This money was also raised for the Language Fair and the National German test at UNL.

President Betty Douglas, vice-president Sabine Younger, secretary Bob Campbell, treasurer Olinda Allen, and sports chairman Deb Eastman all met with sponsor Jane Reinkordt when planning activites.

"German club has a relaxed and friendly atmosphere so that anyone can enjoy themselves and the German culture," said senior Betty Douglas.

CLUBS

"We don't ~~e =~~d ta~ about math, really ever," Math Club president Craig Sosin said. "Basically, everybody prepares on their own for contests."

The purpose of the Math Club's meetings was to organize teams for math contests, So5in said. Math Club participated in the OPENHOUSEwasoneofthemany Creighton University Math Contest, the activities groups like Ars Nova Omaha South Math Contest, and the UNL Coro performed at Actuarial Contest.

Math Club not only participated in contests, but sponsored one for Algebra and Geometry students that "didn't work out too well." as Sosin put it. "The Geometry prize was won by an Algebra 1-2 student."

'There are no membershlp dues," Sosin said. All one had to do to become a Math Club member was to come to several meetings or participate in a contest.

Officers were sponsor Cindy Troyer, president Craig Sosin, vice-president Scott Sutter, secretary Matt Wigdahl, treasurer Rob Spence, and "other" Kathy Skoug.

Mixed Chorus

The only general music class offered at Southeast was Mixed Chorus Anyone could belong to the groups and no audition was required. Mostly sophomores participated in the group.

"I took the class because I like to smg, and I'm hoping it will help me get into other groups like Court Choir next year," said sophomore Rachel Penrod.

In class. members obtained further training in smging techniques with the help of teacher Tim Sharer. All styles of music and historical periods were covered during the year. The group gave four concerts throughout the year.

National Honor Society

Not all clubs do activities, some, like National Honor Society, exist to honor its members.

To be in National Honor Society a student had to be a senior, have a 2.00 average or better for four semesters on a 1 to 7 scale with l the best, and had to show evidence of at least two leadership and/ or service activities while in high school.

These "leadership and/or service activities" could be a variety of different activities. For example. they could be student government, music, literary, dramatic, speech, or journalism activities. They could also be club membership, or participation in athletics.

Early in the spring, the officers held an invocation ceremony for the members of National Society.

NOVAClub

"The NOVA club shares science news:· sponsor Frank Dupuis said. Meetings were

NOVA was not a debating club. "It'~ kind of an informal setting where we sit around and talk about the issues of science,· junior Todd Burger said. "Everyone feels comfortable because we don't pass judgement."

NOVA Club got its name from a public education television show. Occasionally NOVA members watched a Videotape ot c NOVA broadcast.

This was the first year NOVA ever hac club shirts made. For several years they'c tried to get organized and agree on c design, but they never did it until the officer~ pushed it through this year_

"I joined Outdoor Encounter because 1 like to spend time with nature, and it's much more fun doing it with other people and making new friends," said junior Craig Morrey.

In addition to having learned more about nature, students also learned more about themselves and the people around them. "I feel as if I know myself much better now, and also the other members of the club. It was a great experience,·· Morrey added.

"It was a lot of work being an officer, but it was worth the time and effort because it was a good way to get involved in the school, " said junior vice president Juli Johnson.

Queen's Court

Change brings insecurity but also improvement as in the case of Queen's Court.

Queen's Court was "remodeled" this year. The all girl ensemble was smaller having only 17 junior and senior members as compared to last year when sophomores were also accepted. More dancing, more variety in the music, and more penormances made this year's group stand out

"I think it's made people think differently of Queen 's Court. We have a better image this year," said senior Katie Rucksdashel.

Queen's Court was considered more of a swing choir since they did a lot o1 choreography They penormed a1 various places including the Govemer's Mansion, the Capital, and other civic and shcool functions.

Round Table

Being revived isn't just tor the Sleeping Beauties of the world. It's also for clubs like the Round Table.

The Round Table, a writing club, was revitalized this past year. It met "because of mutual interest in creative writing," according to Rob McClary, club secretary. He added that it was a small club ( of 8 members) with the purpose of sharing.

The club is planning to sponsor a wrtting contest next year.

SClub

Contrary to what many students thought, the ' S" Club was more than a club where the members sat around deciding who had the largest biceps.

As far as organization goes, there were no officers, but the club met every other week on Wednesdays Senior Roy Tucker, four time letterwinner, said "We didn't elect officers because there really was no need for them, this way everyone had a say in the matter."

The only requirement tor being a member of the chlb was to have a senior letter. A letter was awarded to the players of a varsity level sport, yet there were some restnctions that vary from coach to coach.

One of the "S" Club's most useful projects, accord.mg to Tucker, was selling programs to earn money in order to pay off a Video Cassette Recorder (VCR) for the school. "We felt that it was a useful way to help the school, because it directly will benefit us and our classmates."

Stage Band

The smallest group in the instrumental department was the stage or jazz band. Nineteen members met before school on Tuesdays to work on difficult jazz rhythms and to prepare for concerts and contests.

The jazz band played in many concerts during the year, attended two contests in the spring and had one member play in the All-State Jazz Band.

"We lost a lot of seniors from last year," said junior member Scott Rademacher, "but gaining a new director whose speciality is in jazz really helped."

Eating,planning,votingandorganizing were what the student council members' lunch holll'S consisted of.

Each Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday; the group of 28 students gathered together in a class room to discuss and try to resolve problems.

"We are here to be the voice of the students, we want to express their opinion to the faculty and get what is best t0r both accomplished," said senior Charlie Friedman.

Student Council broke up into smaller groups of committees to try to efficiently resolve problems and benefit the school.

Beneftting the school involved dances, student exchanges, and remembering each important event around the school and the _ community.

Through all these tasks and services the Council was given the award of Outstanding Coucil by the NASC (Nebraska Association of Student Councils).

They both came together and formed a club called "Synkra-Knights." The name referring to syncronize the sport of wate1 ballet.

The girls tryed out for the club ir: January. They then are put into smalle1 groups to create acts for the Synkra-Knightf show per1ormed in March.

The performers then choose a song stunts, and suits to fit the theme of the show This year the theme was "names." Everythinf in the show then revolved around tha theme.

Synkra-Knighters received their income to put on these shows by selling at the concession stands. "Its an easy and fun way for the girls to earn money," said sponsor Mimi Kuebler

Senior Deb Bauers, soloist summed Uili years' club by saying,"It was a lot of work but it was worth it, because it was a fun anc unique sport ."

Hasselbalch said ·that Student Republicans worked on campaigns to help candidates and went to central committee meetings to watch. At meetings they usually talked about how their city-wide plans are going Lincoln High and Northeast didn't have Student Republican sponsors, so Southeast's chapter worked to find some Speakers came and talked to the members occasionally.

Student Republicans also sponsored a canned food drive in the school for the Food Bank. They put a box for the food in the office for about a week.

Sponsor was Jane Williams with officers of presidentAne Hasselbalch, vice-president David Schaaf, treasurer Mark Slama, administrative secretary Stephanie Feistner and press secretary Sabine Younger.

. Symphonic Band

Members of the symphonic band had a busy and successful year. The band earned superior ratings in two marching band contests, gave numerous concerts, and had 14 members participate in the Allstate Band.

The officers were Julia Sellmyer, president; Matt Briggs, vice-president; Paula Danekas, secretary-treasurer; and Gary Hanna, librarian. It was also the first year for new direct01 Bob Krueger

"It was different because we had a new band director," said senior band member Darla Johnson of the band

The year ended with the traditional awards banquet in May

Practices began on February 25th, anc their first meet was on March 22. During th€ first week in May, the state shoot was helc and the top ten people received a trophy o a medal

The team was made up of 1Oto 15 male members. Girls were allowed on the team before, but this year was the first year tor a girl, Nikki Osten, to participate on the team . Trap shooting was shooting blue rock, which cost $1.50 per 25 targets. These targets are about four and one-half inches in diameter and are thrown trom a machine

It not only was a fun sport, but also an expensive one Besides the costs for the meets and practices, there was the additional charge for the shotghun, which the student provided These shotguns were usually twelve gauge, and many students already had one from their many years of shooting. Senior Tom Sanders said, "I've been shooting since I was eight years old, and I don't think it ever gets old. There's always something new and it's fun being with all your friends, and old friends."

Senior Mike McBride said, "It's really exciting. even though I didn't shoot last year, this year was a good year for me and the team."

Varsity Cheerleaders

Water Polo

Led byan experienced group of players, Water Polo club had much talent and potential for success, according to Pat Mc Ginn, club president.

"We had a lot of good guys, but no one should feel like they have to be experienced at polo to play. Many times, we just got together and had a good time," Mc Ginn said.

The club met three times a week after school, during the fall and spring, to scrimmage. About 10-15 people attended an average practice.

Due to the large number of swimmers on the club, during swimming season Water Pol9 did not meet on a regular basis. Nonswim team members were welcome in the club, however, sponsor Gerry Saunders said.

In the fall the club played in a tournament at UN-L. They also went to Raytown, Kansas to play Raytown High School's team.

"It's a physical game, and sometimes people play dirty, but it's really tun," McGinn said.

White Knights

Marching with the band in parades and giving halftime performances were the twirlers, otherwise known as White Knights.

"Basically the White Knights were an auxiliary group that led and accompanied the band," band director Bob Krueger said.

The White Knights appeared in contests with the band and were graded separately at the Lincoln Public Schools Contest

Besides marching in parades and appearing in contests the twirlers did feature routines at halftime of home football games.

Julie Anderson was the captain and Denise Monroe was the feature twirler.

Varsity Tennis

Lettermen ace season

Depth and experience were the key words to a successfu I season for the boys' varsity tennis team.

"We had a lot of depth and a lot of good players," said senior player Chad Toi ly. "We didn't have any extremely good players-we're all pretty much even playwise."

With a state title in mind, the team traveled to Dewey Park in Omaha Oct. 17 and 18, and came six points close to the state title which went to Omaha Central. The team finished second in the competition, and players Scott Gamet and Scott Neumeister won the title in #2 doubles.

The team ended up the season with a 9-0 record losing only three matches in the last dual meet of the season.

"This record was special

because we didn't lose a single match at the first eight duals," said George Eisele, coach of the team. "We've never had that record before."

In addition to their successf u I record, the team came in third in the Papillion Invitational, won the LPS and the Fremont Invitational, and also came in first at the Greater Nebraska Conference tennis meet.

"It was an overall team effort. Everybody played well, and we only lost one match against tougher competition," said Totty about the Nebraska Conference.

The team practiced three or four times a week for about one hour during the good weather. These practices consisted of drills, isolated practice on certain strokes, and match play.

Challenge matches were also an important part of team practices. To gain positions on the team, players competed against each other, and the winning person or doubles team moved ahead of the other. These matches were important because of the six people limit in tournament, only the top players could go.

"We're all friends, but there is a lot of competition between us," senior Don Everett.

"State was dissapointing," stated Eisele, "but we should be pleased with second. The team put forth a lot of effort and worked together as a group, and they should be congratulated."

The reserve team also had a pertect season. The team dual record was 9-1, and they were city champs.

Girls' Golf

Young talent aids team

Youth and consistency were terms often used when discussing the girls' golf team. The team took advantage of being able to have freshmen on the team. Ninth grader Angie Wilson from Irving played a vital role in the success of the team.

Consistency was the goal of the team. "Atthestart of the season we wanted to finish in the top three at every meet," said head coach Dan Wolf. The team met this goal except for the Duschen Invitational which was held in Omaha. The team finished fourth but Wilson won medalist honors.

150/Girls Golf

As the season progressed the goal switched to winning state. Senior Erleen Hatfield said the team didn't feel any pressure to win state but "they really wanted to."

Seven strokes stood between the team and their goal as they placed second to Omaha Marion. Once again Wilson took medalist honors. "It was my goal," said Wilson about medalist honors, "so I really wasn't shocked."

The weather during the season was a factor. "This is the worst weather since l"ve been coaching," Wolf said. The first meet was the only

good one because it was • warm Wilson said.

Oct. 17 was to have been the day of the state meet. Due to rain it was postponed to the following day. The meet was held in Lincoln at Mahoney Golf Course.

Even if the weather was a problem, team spirit wasn't. "Everyone helped each other and gave each other a lot of support," Hatfield said. The team also had a lot of fun during the season, she added.

Although the season was played under gray skys, the season itself was a bright one.

Cross Country Tradition of Excellence

"I

n order to be successful at Cross Country, you must have what I cal I the four Tstalent, training, training, and training," said Cross Country coach Ted Larson, emphasizing the importance that training has upon one's ability to do well on the team.

The cross country team officially started practicing in August but once the school year began they practiced daily except Sunday for two to three hours.

The teams once again started the season with a bang. Win after win was produced by both teams as they once again strived to be the best.

"Everyone's pretty much

unified, we get along well, and everyone teases each other for comical relief. Most teammates have a nickname. They call Greg Rentz "Woodstock", because his hair looks like feathers," said senior Greg Wiley whose nickname on the team was "Ciint".

Many factors are taken into consideration when analyzing the win which a team produces. "The girls' team needed to know that they could win and to feel confident with their own running. The boys needed to pull together as a team and get unified They knew all along that they were going to win state, not out of cock-

iness, out of confidence in their ability," said Larson. The greatest setback that any team can have is injuries and the teams' injuries were kept to a minimum throughout the season.

The assistant coach this year was John McCracken. McCracken felt that another advantage that the S.E. team had was the encouragement given to them. "Their parents, the faculty, and the kids in general. In the social aspect, they are well-adjusted, wellrounded kids that have grown up well They have a real direction in life, with long and short term goals, which I feel directly parallels success."

Cross Country Endurance pays off

Larson said that senior captains Hayley Malcom and Karen Kluth provided · the girls' team with excellent leadership and that the real leader on the boys team was senior John Early. "He's a very positive person. I like to surround myself with positive people to get the ball rolling in the right direction."

"I really don't think that I've had any major personal accomplishments. If one per- · son suffers, the whole team suffers, if one person feels the glory, the whole team feels it.

In cross country, people learn to value the team over themselves," said senior captain Hayley Malcom.

Larson agreed that cross countrywas a "feeling". Running seemed to give those that run a feeling that is undescribable by those that don't. It is often known as a "runner's high".

It's this feeling that made the pains of running into a feeling of euphoria for the cross country teams as the once again they had successful seasons.

McCracken felt that coaching helped him personally. "If I could give them one-half of what they give me, I'd be happy, they give me a boost."

Larson felt that McCracken, being an Olympic class runner, has helped the teams a lot in continuing the winning tradition.

"Southeast has a tradition of Cross Country excellence. Every year we're right there at the top-if not #1 They have faith in themselves, their coaches, and their ability."

Gymnastics Strong spirit is strength

"A good mental feeling. everyone feels good about each other, but we are lacking some on the physical side because we are young and inexperienced," said senior captain of the gymnastics boys' team Brian Wrightsman.

"I feel that the reason for our success was hard work, positive team mates and the coaches pushing you," said Dawn Everett, senior captain of the girls' gymnastics team.

The hard work began Aug. 17 with some practices that consisted of stretching, tumbling and the rest of practice was spent inventing or improving routines .

"I really enjoy being able to make up our own routines. It lets me be creative and makes the routines less

tedious," said junior captain Shannon Toalson.

Positive teammates were also a great asset to the gymnastics team 's success. "The captains this year are good role models and keep the team's spirit going," said coach Ron Paulson.

The captains led the stretches, helped with routines and tried to keep a positive attitude throughout the team. "It was great honor being chosen as captain, and was a good way to get to know others on the team better," said junior captain Jared Nun.

The support from parents and the student body was helpful in keeping the team's moral high. "The school spirit really helped because their support made us keep going

when we were feeling down," · Everett said.

Feeling down wasn't what the girls' team felt when they scored 130 at Millard North Invite . "Our goal for the season was to hit 130, but after we hit it, we made a new goal to score higher," said Toalson. The team was able toachievethisgoal because of their consistent floor routine

The boys' team had a victory over East in a dual meet. "We were really happy to win because it showed that hard work and determination pays off," said Wrightsman.

"The reason we weren't able to have a better record this year is because we lacked in depth and concentration," said Kristen Flanders.

Depth was a problem for both teams this year. "If someone gets sick, there only Isa few to back them up," said Nun.

"Coaches are honest and always have a postive attitude," said Everett. This seemed to help the team a lot when they were down.

"'Kristen (Flanders) has the best postive attitude. She made the atmosphere good," said Everett.

The high spirit, good atmoshpere, and individual talents seemed to be the keys to this year's success.

"'All in all it was a great team with talent and high spirit," said Toalson.

The determination of both teams paid off with the

boys' record of 2-5 and the girls' team ended up 3-4.

"The reasons for our success this year was hard practices, team unity and support from coaches and parents," said sophomre Susan Brown.

The "hard practices" began in mid-August, lasting two to three hours a day. Practices dealt with conditioning, team work, and scrimmaging.

"All other teams wanted to be like us. They want the team unity and fun," said reserve coach Marsha Gotchal I.

Team unity was also the key factor of the sophomore team. The sophomores had a little sister program-which

162/Soph, JV VoHeyball

is where an anonymous member of the team is another teammate's spirit girl for the season. "The little sisters helped a lot in keeping the team's spirits high ," said sophomore coach Cindy Renn.

Another factor in keeping the team's spirits high were the coaches. This year was Gotcahll's first year coaching at Southeast "I really liked coaching because I'm able to retain and pass on one coaching philosophy, which is attitude and not only the importance to win," said Gotcha II.

Gotchall philosophy made a big difference with the team's performances. "She is the best. She makes everyone feel important and feels that having a good

team is what is most important." said Barrett

The parents and student body also made the teams feel immportant . "At our home meets the support was okay, but we really need the student body to take more of a interest," said sophomore Monica Mcguire.

The main reason for this was because there were only three home games. "We hope that in the future the support will be greater. Southeast has a excel lent volleyball program and should be commended," Gotchall said.

"Working together, a -~,_-__....,c;; sense of fun, and beginning to master fundamentals was the basis for our team's all around success," said Brown about the season. Perky Perry

Reserve/Sophomore Footbal I Teams gain confidence

"To become better players" was the main goal of both the sophomore and reserve teams, according to reserve head coach Doug Miller and assistant sophomore coach Dan Hohensee.

The secondary goal of the reserve team was to prepare the players for varsity play next year. Team members cou Id be found working towards this goal at daily after school practices.

A · typical practice, according to Miller, lasted about two and one-half hours, with most of the time being spent on basics. "The progress has been excel lent, but I'm not surprised," said Miller.

"We put in a lot of hard work and have gotten a tot out of it," said reserve player Brad Vasa. Jason Walters felL

the coaches brought out the best in the team. "They get on us if we don 't work hard," Walters said.

A 23-14 victory over Fremont was the hight ight of the season. "Fremont walked over us during the first half and we came back to win the game," said Vasa

The reserves finished out the season retaining the city championship which they had won as sophomores with a victory over East.

Excitement was the key · word on Oct. 17 as the sophomore team beat East in a 6-0 double-overtime win. "That was pretty much the highlight of our season," said team member Alan Pershing. Plenty of team spirit and hard practiced helped the sophomores to finish the season with a winning record .

"Practices weren't long but they were hard," said Pershing Hohensee described a typical practice as lasting about two hours, with the team working in small groups to start with and practicing as a team at the end of practice.

Leadership was an important aspect of the game sophomores had to work on. "Some players lack confidence on the sophomore level," said Hohensee. He added that by the end of the season , some players were starting to take on the responsibility they wit I need as varsity players.

''We had a lot of team unity this year," said junior J.B. Barr. "We all had the same goal."

This goal, to do their best, pushed the swimmers and divers into a successful season. The boys placed third in the state, and the girls placed fifth.

This success, however, could not have been achieved without a lot of hard work. In the main part of the season, swimmmers practiced from 5:30 or 6 to 7 in the

morning and 4 to 6 evenings on school days, and also on Saturday mornings.

Intense practices in late December through January were known as "The Big Push" before state competition. "We worked really hard right before we tapered off and rested up for state," sophomore Steph Neid said.

Then, right before state, "workouts focused on sprinting and speed ...practices were more fun, and we got psyched," Barr said . Divers had different ways

of preparing for competitions. "You have a list of dives you have to work from," junior Laura Arth said. ''You just dive your best and learn new dives."

The divers hit the pool after school and on Saturday mornings, sometimes having to share the pool with the swimmers. According to Arth, "We have great facilities and everything, but we only get to use one board."

Diving "The big push" pays off

Despite the restrictions on board use. the divers had impressive results. Five girls and three boys qualified for state more than the rest of Lincoln's qualifiers put together.

Practice, though the principle cause for a successful season, was not the only cause. Team spirit and getting psyched played important roles as wel I.

"I think we had more team spirit this year than last," Barr said. "We did lots of cheers."

"We all shored the pain

and torture of practices, so we have a lot of respect for each other," Neid said.

To give each other addition a I support, members made signs and gave each other cookies and flowers, Arth said.

But, by far, the most outwardly noticeable sign of psyching up was shaving down. "It really makes you feel faster," Barr said. "Everybody looks forward to it."

"I shaved my arms for the first time because everyone talked me into it," Neid said "I think it's more a of a

big deal for the guys, though they shaved their heads, I only got a haircut."

Shaved and psyched for the 100-yard backstroke, Barr set a state record with a :52. 75 time. "I was really thrilled," he said . "It was my season goal."

'We really put in a lot of hard work this year," Barr said. "Ewn though we didn't place as high as we set our goal, it was still a good season."

The year of learning

While the season record doesn't show a winning season, it also doesn't show the team unity and learning experience developed by this year's wrestling team.

Twenty-five members, the majority unexperienced, made up a teani that worked hard to improve their ability to compete in dual meets.

The highlight of the dual meets this season was when junior Jason Forstorm got a reversal in the last five seconds to win by one point

"Last year the wrestlers weren't as positive as this year. This year they turned the comer to start building a more positive atmosphere for

now and the future teams," said Coach Mick Pierce.

Even in a losing season the team was able to come together and work to improve as the season progressed.

"We had a team that made the best out of the wrestlers we had and never gave up," said junior Chad Lunders.

The spirit dominated the team enabling it to have four wrestlers in the state meet.

Chad Lunders, Jeff Fushia, Tom Gifford and Roy Tucker competed in the state meet February 20-22. Chad Lunders and Tom Gifford made the semi finals on the

second day of the meet.

"The state tournment gave us a chance to compete with some really outstanding wrestlers," said Lunders. "It was a good experience that makes you want to come back again nextyear," he added.

These members of the team that qualified for state gave the rest of the team a more optimistic attitude and that an inexperienced team can come through.

"The team improved as the year progresses. Statisticly we didn't look good but in our own minds we felt we did pretty good," said Lunders.

Varsity Boys' Basketball Team lacks experience

Despite posting a 4-15 regular season record the varsity boys' basketbal I team was "better than our record shows," according to team member Chad Moller.

First year Coach Dennie Puelz said, "our record is disappointing, in terms of winloss, but not really discouraging "

In fact, in districts, Southeast upset Beatrice in the opening game and lost to Northeast in overtime in the second game by only four points. It was the second time thisyeartheteam had lost in overtime to Northeast.

With only three seniors, Rudd, Scott Detlefson, and Cal Leyden on varsity, " we lacked the maturity to deal with the pressures of Class A varsity basketball," Puelz said.

"This year we had no returning players with varsity

experience in a pressure situation," Puelz -said. "Tim Herman and Mark Rudd played some, but not in crucial situations, so we never had enough chemistry to unite the younger kids."

Moller attributed the teams record largely to poor luck. "I don't mean for this to sound like an excuse, but we really didn't get a lot of breaks in the important places," he said.

Grant Kauffman had another reason. "It was politics, man," he said. "Seriously, we always played the other teams hard, but had a tough time pulling the switch."

This was Puelz's first year as varsity head coach, but "I've got 22 years of coaching experience, and varsity coaching is not all that different from junior varsity or sophomores," he said.

The players had nothing

but praise for their new coach. Kauffman said, "He knows what he's doing, and is a real nice guy. He's got a good, positive attitude. He's an honest man and a fair man. Largely because of him, I think, we were a real close team."

''I'm just sorry that we couldn't do a little better for the seniors; they certainty deserved it," Puetz said.

Herman and John Puetz led the Knights in scoring. averaging 14 points a game apiece, according to Coach Puelz. "Nextyearwe're going to have to have some more outside shooters, but I've got confidence that we'll do well."

Sophomore and Reserve Boys' Basketball Teams filled with talent

Basketball talent was tapped to the limits during the season as many junior varsity players moved· up to the varsity level creating spaces which were leff to be filled by sophomores.

Setting goals at the beginning of the season is something most athletic teams do, but the J.V. basket~ ball team had an interesting way of handling this concept.

Head coach J.R. Connell used a goal sheet which was make up of indMdual and team goals that were input by the players. The sheet included not only goals pertaining to basketball but also goals relating to characteristics such as responsibility, respect, and hard work. The last goal on the sheet was to have fun.

"When you win as much as we did you can't help but have fun," said Connell. The team finished the season at 13-3 and won the city championship.

Team spirit went along

with having fun. 'We had a lot of spirit," said sophomore team member Mark Bunde Bunde credited head captain Brian Gordon for getting the team fired up.

Winning the city championship was the most memorable experience for many of the team members. The team won over all three of the other Lincoln schools and beat Lincoln High by one point to clinch the title.

The game over Lincoln High was extra special for junior team member Steve Hill. "Mynextdoorneightoris the J.V. coach at L.H.5.-that madethevictorya lotoffun."

There was a price to pay for the successful season that the team had. The cost of success was met through tough practices.

"Connell really gets on us in practice, he doesn't stand for screwing around," said Bunde

"I was pretty demanding," said Connell, "but you can't be consistent if you

don't have dislpline."

The sophomore basketball team had a successful season, with a final record of 10-2. The team worked toward their goals as a team, and this unity brought them a much deserved good season.

The coach tnis year was Gene Thompson. Thompson teaches at Pound Junior High in the morning and then comes to Southeast for practices. "Coach Thompson was a good coach because he had experience. In practice he would bring the guts out us when we needed it. He's make us work for hours if we didn't understand something until we got it," Jisa said, "He'd use Sesame Street sayings to help us remember what we're supposed to do, he'd make us feeJ stupid so we'd do it right the next time."

Varsity Girls' Basketball

SE girls are "red hot"

The varsity girls' basketball team, consisting of seven seniors, two juniors, and three sophomores, started off an outstanding season with twelve straight victories. Their first loss was to Omaha Marion, the only other undefeated team in their class .

Sophomore Lisa Borchardt said, "It (the loss against Marion) was a great disappointment, but it was betterthatthe loss happened before state. It helped to remove pressure from the players."

After the loss to Omaha Marion, the girls suffered only one other loss in district competition against Lincoln East.

The girls team started off the season rated in the top ten. This sparked an interest among Knight fans and resu lted in a greater attendence at their games by both parents and students, according to Borchardt.

Coach John Larsen pro-

vided not only support but hard and diligent training, according to senior Deb Hoffman. "He was always trying to get us to improve ourselves, not only in the physical aspect of the game, but in the mental aspect also. His knowledge about basketball is incredible," said Hoffman.

The team's assets included excellentteamwork, and lots of talent, according to Borchardt "Everyone knows what to expect of each other, so we get along well and cooperate on the team. It helped that everyone liked each other and was good friends."

Needing to hustle more on defense, by moving up and down the court faster, was what Hoffman said was the only major downfall for the team.

Despite this downfall, the girls' team learned to be an excel lent athletic group, and

practiced their 1985-86 slog an to the maximum; "Knights Are It". And they were.

Their first loss was to Omaha Marion, the only other undefeated team in their class, but the Lady Knights were given a second chance on the evening of March 8, 1986. This was the final round of the 1986 Girls' State Basketbal I Championship and the winner of the game was to be state champions Southeast took state with a 55-4 7 victory over Omaha Marion.

Coach John Larsen said, "I'm very proud and happy for the girls. They worked really hard and did an excellent job accomplishing their goals, to go to state and win. They weren't sure that they were going to take state, but they never doubted that they could to it."

Sophomore and Reserve Girls' Basketball Support found in team

"I t surprised all of us how well we worked with each other," said sophomore reserve player Suzanne Schmeling.

The reserves took the city championship with a 15-1 record. The game against Omaha Marion in particular was "a really good game," according to Schmeling. ·we proved to them that we've got a good team." Games against city rivals East, Lincoln High, and Northeast were always exciting, said reserve Coach Janet MacNeill.

"We didn't have any superstars," said MacNeill. 'We had to work together to achieve the kind of season that we had." But the team did have a lot of quickness, as displayed by

their full-court press. Steals seemed almost commonplace for the reserves.

MacNeill said she thought the season was excellent. Schmeling added "it was a really special season. We all got along good and learned from each other, and our coach Janet (MacNeill) can take the credit for that."

Both teams practiced after school for about 90 minutes and sometimes practiced on Saturdays. A typical practice included going through plays, scrimmaging, working on defense, running, and free throw shooting.

The sophomore team finished with a 3-8 record. Sophomore coach Tim Golden said, "The record's not near as indicative of how well they did because in five of the eight games we lost we shot

under 20 percent at the (freethrow) line and the other teams shot over 80 percent."

"We a II worked together," sophomore player Monica Maguire commented. "If we wanted to do our best, we would. If we didn't, it would show."

Tight games were nothing new to the sophomores. Fi'i8 of the games they played in were decided by five points or less. In the last game against Lincoln High the Links launched a last second shot that made the score 23-22 in favor of Lincoln High. The most resounding win the sophomores had was over Northeast by a score of 27-20.

"I was really proud of the way they hung in there," Golden added. "They really improved and worked hard."

The 1,250 copies of the 1986 Shield yearbook were printed on 80 pound grade A enamel paper by Walsworth Publishing Company of Marceline, Mo Copy was set by the yearbook staff through use of the Rosewriter, a typesetting program developed by Terry Rose, a former Lincoln East High student. The computer disc was played out in the gra phic s department at the Public School Administration Building. Sales representative was Mike Diffenderfer with Walsworth. The book sold for $20 to $22 each. The price included the 220 page book, a 24 page supplement; and the Clarion Classic, a creative arts magazine.

The 150 pt. board cover with embossed metal gloss seal and applied gold sil ksc reen lettering was designed and crea t ed by editors Shelly Altgilbers and Julia Sellmyer to reveal the theme of "Longer Days Make Better Knights".

Copy for the theme, divider, and closing pages was set in Souvenir type, with headlines in Park Avenue type. Copy in the Student Life and People sections was in Chelmsford type, and the Academic Section was set in Serif Gothic type. Copy in the Clubs and Organizations section was in Lubalin Graph type, and the Sports section was set in Avant Garde type.

The Mini-Mag was a different way to portray the lives of high school students. , Results of a poll of about 200 students have determined the content of the Mini-Mag. The copy was set in Bauhaus type.

· Layouts for the Student Life se~tion were 3 column, with sports in 4 column,

Wrightsman , Bruce D 55, 123, 152

Wrestling 172-173

Wykert Kelli 71

people in 2 column, clubs in 2 plus column, and academics in 7 columns. , Mini-Mag consisted of a freestyle layout.

The 220-page book was completed in six segments, the first part of which included all of the color pages, and the cover. Those events which occurred after the March 14 deadline were covered in the spring supplement.

Four color processing was used on the first 16 pages of the book. Process yellow was used on the theme pages, 100 percent black on dividers and 20 percent gray endsheets. Caricatures in the Mini-Mag were created by senior Martha Lauber under the direction of the Shield staff.

The Shield is a member of the National Scholastic Press Association, has a first-class rating with the Columbia Press Association, and is a member of the Nebraska High School Press Association. The 1985 Shield received a Cornhusker award for the fifth consecutive year.

Picture credits go to National School Studio for taking faculty and underclassmen pictures in the People section, to the Picture Man for the homecoming royalty picture, and Clarion photographers Thomas Irvin and Stuart Larson. Additional credit goes to teacher Mike Ware for his patience and help in teaching the staff how to use the computer, and to teacher Jim Schaffer at Lincoln East for his direction in the use of the Rosewriter program. Also thanks to Clarion copy editor, senior Allison Rohla and senior Angie Dunovan for their assistance.

PRINCIPAL WESLEY LAUTERBACH congratulates Harry Hartshorn for his many years of service to Southeast before he ret ire~ Architecture and mechanical Drafting instructor Robert Hdll ,,b u retired mid year and was replaced by Southeast's first woman indw-,1 ric1I arts teacher Jane Edwards

PURE ENJOYMENT for the crowd and a welcome relief from the ten!:>" action at the Girls State semi-final ba sket ball game against Linrnln High made the Shirettes a hit This half-time performance was created in a short time and earned a standing ovation from the fans.

The Best Are ...

We may not leave until we've become the best. After all, the new ruling for longer days includes enough time to become better, and Southeast doesn't seem to produce anything less than the best. Obviously, the time spent in school · wasn't always filled with success, dedication and achievement, but it's those hurdles that we must jump in order to become stronger.

One such hurdle was unexpected. It involved a nation's mourning together when on January 28 the space shuttle Challenger exploded killing all seven astronauts aboard, includingteacher Christa McAlluiff. The tragedy which occurred at about 10:38 CST may have lengthened the day for some as teachers and students awaited the opportunity to leave school in order to receive more information. As one teacher put it, "Sometimes we feel so closed off and confined from the outside world." ·

Still, teachers coped, some by gathering up available televisions, and others by discussing the disaster with their classes.

Besides coping with the unexpected situations, students still had to tackle the perennial ones, like the "litter" problem. Open campus and the availability of junk food machines spread the matter from the hallways and classrooms into the neighborOn the inside, Southeast was constantly filled with people, neighbors who were irritated once again about the trash in their yards. Student Council discussed the problem at building advisory meetings and got more trash cans placed about the school and by "C" lot. With that, the situation did improve .

Parking also continued to be a problem, and places were a sought after commodity earlier in the 9ay as students tried to get those required five classes per semester in and still make it to an after school job at a reasonable time.

"Tow Country" sometimes described Southeast's campus as the weather got cold and students parked illegally to avoid a long walk from "C" lot. Students who parked in the nearby church lot, at the end of a row in the main parking lot, or half on half off a sidewalk found themselves paying $40 to get their car back.

ENGULFED IN THE SHEER emotion of being the best, the Varsity Girls Basketball T earn won Southeast's first state championship basketball game ever against number one ranked Marian. Despite a season with only two losses, hard work and some frustration throughout the season paid off for the Knights on the night of Saturday, March 8.

Closing/219

Dismissed.-------.

A relatively mild winter enabled students to get to school every day with little snow complications. Itwas the first year in a long time that students weren't granted with a snow day, at least up to this deadline anyway. Record setting temperatures, in the S0's and 60's, during winter break and in January lifted spirits and enticed joggers, bikers, children and P.E. classes to put on their shorts and enjoy the warm sun. Not only during the regular school week but on the weekends there were teachers' workshops, debate tournaments, solo and ensemble contests, play practice, athletic practice and games, and many other activities to enrich ambitions and help students achieve goals with a little extra work. This extra effort proved the "will" to be better by everyone.

As a result of the hard work, the Knights seemed to always come out on the top in every area. Jim Hannah won national awards in humorous speaking, eight DECA students qualified for nationals, not one athletic team was rendered a failure, approximately 1/3 of all the students made it on Honor Roll and over a hundred seniors were recognized for their achievements by being selected for membership on the National Honor Society. The fine arts area boasted 1st place wins by the Countesses and Noblemen and the marching band placed 1st in 2 of its 3 competitions.

Of the 360 high schools in Nebrasks, eight of them have the mascot name "Knights." We've successfully made it through the year of longer days which made our Knights better. We started out the year with a goal in mind. Hurdles were jumped, pain was overcome, we lost, won, failed, succeeded, cried, and laughed. And all of this was for a purpose. To be the best that we could be, and then to move on. That goal was reached. Everyone survived the longer days. And the Knights of 1986 were better for it. Now we may be dismissed.

JUNIOR JON MILLS turns around to give one last salute to the Southeast Girls' State Champion Basketball team. But the celebration had only just begun since you can't ever take away the glory of being the best.

Fun arrives with sun

Warm weather causes craziness

Smell the air, what do you smell? It's spring, and with spring comes flowers, green grass, romance, and freedom. Freedom from school was a thought that was on everyone's mind.

This year there was a student initiated "skip day". According to attendance secretary Beverly Lonn, there were quite a few who were absent that day, but it was impossible to verify if they should be excused or not.

Most students had their mothers call in for them. Yet, for those whose mothers wouldn't call in, they just had to take their chances.

Lonn felt that ones who would skip for skip day would skip anytime, so it might not be that much of a big surprise when parents receicved phone calls. "My parents knew I was going to skip, but they wouldn't call in for me," said senior Danielle Mohr, "I'm just sitting around waiting to get a pass from Mr. Eaton."

Of the seniors that skipped, most went out to Pioneers Park. Other alterna-

tives were Wagon Train, Holmes Lake, and other friends' homes. Mohr and her friends went out to Wagon Train. She said they did popular springtime activities, such as laid out, made hamburgers, and played frisbee.

"It was a nice relaxing day away from school. It reminds you of how enjoyable summer can be," claimed Mohr, "I had never skipped before and figured once out of 13 years isn't that awful."

That seemed to be the general con sen us of those that skipped that day. "After 13 years of school, we deserve to have one day to ourselves." The two days at the end of the year should be enough since they are not required to get them, disagreed Lonn.

Juniors and sophomores also have the urge to skip "You start getting antsy for school to get out and it's hard to make yourself attend your classes," admitted junior Shelley Grove. Lonn said sophomores tend to skip more in the fall of the year rather than in the spring .

In the spring of the year, students' goals turn toward amusement. They look forward to the lazy summer days and endless nights. Spring is the practice session for the summer season, and students put a lot of effort into enjoying themselves. -Andrea Alit

as Dolly Levi stepped forward to take her final bow, accepting the applause showered upon her and the rest of the cast and crew. This was the final scene in the Spring Musical 1986, which took place on March 20, 21, and 22. This year's choice was "Hello Dolly".

The name, "Hello Dolly" the highly famed musical, may have had some influence on the extremly good turnouts. Every night, the cast played to a packed auditorium. It was directed by Carol Svoboda and Tim Sharer.

"Carol is the one who makes the show. I hope the other directors I get when I'm in productions outside of SE are as great and as talented as Carol Svoboda She deserves alot of credit," said senior Rob McEntarffer.

Much practice went i nto the preparation for the final product. Five weeks previous to the curtain rising, the entire cast began to practice for three to four hours daily, seven days a week. For the duration of the practices, the cast had to devote themselves entirely to

concentrating primarily on nothing but the musical.

"When people come to the show I'm sure they don't realize how much work was put into it and how many various jobs everyone had to perform in order to get everything under way. I'm very satisfied with how well the show turned out," said McEntarffer.

Senior Monica Mcinturf, who played Mrs. Malloy, said "When working on a musical, you must not only practice the part, you must live the part. It's not something that you think about only at practices, you hav~ little else on your mind until it's over."

"I thought that the acting and the singing was excellent. My favorite parts were the waiters and Bob Krueger's trumpet solo," said Dana Meinke about the musical.

Senior Martha Lauber, who played Dolly, said "There was so much energy put into the show by the whole cast, it impressed me the way people devoted themselves to it."

As the curtain fell, applause was showered amongst all of the cast, for many people agreed with Meinke's views.

Senior Rob McEntarffer, who played Cornellius Hackl, said, "I'm really glad we pulled it off."

Walking back to the holding tanks, one was saturated with the smell of hairspray, and practically trampled by frantic performers, running around, rehearsing their parts, and making a few last minute touch-ups.

"Having the 'holding' tanks (the music rooms) located so close to the back stage entrance was quite an advantage because it gave the noisy performers a place to primp and rehearse their parts without causing distractions from the show," commented 3-year stage crew veteran, senior Chris Cassel.

"What a Knight," the 1986 Night of Knights talent show proved to be a hit, as shown by the enthusiastic response of the audience.

Although there were 20 acts in "What a Knight", most of the acts were musical. Yet, the show was spritzed with the talent of four dancing acts, ranging from a spiritual dance to the annual senior Shirette and Cheerleader dance

"The senior women dance was my favorite because almost all of my friends were in it, and it was neat to see the

Shirettes and the Cheerleaders work all together, " said senior Angie Dunovan.

Trying to raise money for T.M.S. (Tempermental Mood Swings.) was how the EmmCees got the show rolling. Although their telethon only put them in debt, they continued to keep the crowd captivated, and rolling in the aisles with laughter.

The winning act was "Sledge's Boys" which was a small band act, that played the song, "On the Dark Side." Scott Gamet lead the group by singing the solo. Gamet was accompianed by his six man band, consisting of; Brendon Sibley on guitar, Rob McEntarffer on bass, John White on drums, Chris Ellenwood on keyboard and Scott Rademacher on the saxaphone.

The acts were chosen by the Central Committee, (a panel of Judges)who after picking the acts that would get to perform April 3, 4,5, posted a list of 20 acts, and listed them in order of quality.

"What a Knight" meant a lot of different things to a lot of different people. For some it was a way to spend a Thursday evening, for others it was a way to partake of all of the talent that comes out of South east, but for senior Angie Dunovari, "It was a subtle reminder that my last year of school was almost oveL" ·

The Knight Lives On Memories of the weather and fun

"Where were you during the tornado warning?" became the most popular question asked at this year's prom. It made this year most certainly unique from any other prom.

The dance was held downtown at the University Student Union and began at 9:00. Before arriving on the scene, most couples went out for dinner. This was where the majority of people were when the warning was sounded.

"We were on the top floor of the Stuart building for dinner and had to walk down 12 flights of stairs," said junior Laura Arth. When the "all clear" was sounded, the employees still on the top floor were not aware that this had been called and sent everyone back down to the basement again, Arth explained

The theme for this year was "The Knight Lives On" and that it did. By the time the dance began, the storm had died down and by 10:00 the rain had stopped completely. Despite the threatening weather earlier in the evening, it did not stop students from having fun for the rest of the night.

At 11 p.m., royalty was announced. Fourth runners up were Jon Bruning and Angie Onuaha. Third were Grant Kauffman and Cherise Grimit. Second were Mark Nance and Shannon Toalson. First were Jim Neid and Nicci Hughes. The King was Marcus Batters and the Queen was Ginny Wood.

Following the dance, many students did a variety of activities. All prom attendents were invited to a breakfast at Stephanie Flanders house that lasted until 2:30. Others decided to go to smaller gatherings of close friends, and some even rented hotel rooms to party in that eliminated the worry of having to drive home.

The junior class sponsored the dance, with the class officers in charge. They were responsible for planning and organizing the dance and for deciding upon the decorations. "We decided on balloons and streamers for decorations. We also decided to have Jagg play because they were the most neutral band," explained junior class VicePresident Ginny Wood.

Through all the planning and all the time spent preparing for this special occaision, it led to as memorable evening that made it all worthwhile.

Fairy tales portrayed Spring play gives entertainment

Henny Penny, the Golden Goose, and the Breme.ntown Musicians Does this sound a little bit more like an afternoon's entertainment at a preschool than a high school play? Southeast students were treated to a trip down memory lane with this year's spring play "Story Theatre" May 8th and 9th.

"It's based on Grimm's fairy tales and Aesop's fables, and adapted for the stage," said cast member James Baylor. The play, which was adapted by Paul Sills, or, 0 inally appeared on Broadway in the late 1960s, according to Rob McEntarffer, another cast member. It consisted of nine separate scenes, each based upon a fairy tale or fable.

There were also five songs performed with different scenes. They were designed to give the play a more modern aspect, Director Carol Svoboda said. The songs were by 1960s figures such as Bob Dylan and George Harrison. All of the songs appeared in the original Broadway production except one, "Russians" by Sting, which appeared in the place of "I Feel like I'm Fixin' to Die Rag" by Joe McDonald and the Fish. "Russians" was designed to relate the scene with the dangers of the nuclear arms race. Three of the songs were sung by music

teacher Tim Sharer, while the remaining two were sung by Martha Lauber and Robin Falls. The music was played by the band Sledge's Boys.

Each song was intended to emphasize the message of the scene it accompanied. Various themes were conveyed throughout the play. Some included "be satisfied with what you've got", "the elderly aren't useless", "everything will turn out for the best", as well as the folly of war, Svoboda said. "It's important for me to have some reason for what I do," and that influences the thematic content of the plays she selects, Svoboda said.

The cast practiced for three hours a day for six weeks, Svoboda said. "While it was a lot of work, it was also a lot of fun. This was a very gifted group. They made my work much easier," she said. She had special praise for the seniors in the play. "Their class has been phenomenal, and I certainly will miss them."

For their part the cast had nothing but praise for Svoboda. "She's incredible. She strives for excellence," McEntarffer said. "She pounds on you until it's good. She's got a great sense of what makes good entertainment."

Dunking and diving run rampant

The coming of Spring was celebrated May 9, the annual Sprin g Day . Students payed 50 cents to get out of their fifth and sixth period classes to enjoy the day ' s festivities or to go home and relax. Money from the event was donated to the Food Bank.

Student s t hat d id decide to stay, were able to entertain themselves in many ways Activities such as the balloon toss, the dunk ing booth, the tug -of-war; the kissing booth , and the root beer chug kep t people busy and amused Live entertainment was also provided by two bands made up of students. Joe Rockhead and the Mud Bathers played for the first hour, and Sledge ' s Boys played the second hour

" There was a big fight about what band would play in Student Council," said Stuco member Jona Turner about why two bands were chosen to play. "Voting didn't work, so we decided to have them both play."

A special treat was provided for spectators of Sledge's Boys, as history teacher Ted Larsen displayed his talent on the saxophone while accompanying

the band.

Because of the decline in attendence at Spring Day during recent years, a question of future Spring Days arose. "Mr. Eaton told us that the outcome of this Spring D~y would determine whether there will be future Spring Days," said Turner. "I'm hoping that it'll be O.K. because I'd like to have others."

While people were hitting the water in the dunking booth, the next week it was the Synkra Knights who hit the water in their annual program. The theme for this year's show was "What's your name?", and each song that was performed to had a name in the title.

The 35 member group sponsored by Mimi Kuebler was chosen at the beginning of the second semester, and worked all semester on the program. The final product was presented May 15 and 16 in the John Prasch pool. All members were able to swim in the opening and finale, while second and third year members were able to perform in additional routines. Three year member Deb Bauers was the only soloist of the evening and she performed to the song "Beth".

"I practiced everyday for almost two hours," said Bauers. "This year's show was special because it was my last time." -Paula

SENIOR COMMENCEMENT SPEAKERS Sleina Shultz and Rob McEntarffer are caught in rare moment of relaxation. The two found it difficult to find time for their private lives after being chosen to speak at the commencement service.

MANY HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS trod to school each day with just one goal in mind. The climaz of all this is the commencement ceremony. The ceremony involves processions, speeches, music, and other ceremonial activities

Graduation for a change

Pace for seniors quickens in spring

May was the busiest time for seniors. Bes ides the Baccaleaurate which was an ..,all-city high school religious eve nt, and the actual commencement, there were other events. These included the Senior Bar-B-Que and countless awards banquets for musicians, scholars, deba t ers, publication staffs and many others

Martha Lauber, a senior class officer, helped organize the Bar-B-Que. " We Graduation happens to most people only a few times in their lives, and it signifies a triumphant time of change. High school graduation is a turning point in the Iives of students. The past 12 years have been a progression through at least three schools and countless experiences with many of the same friends and encouragement from adults . Despite the feeling of sadness as friends break apart and old habits are broken, students looked forward to the pursuit of their own personal interests.

SENIOR SEAN SCHURR, feeling scholarly as he " I really am looking forward to tries on his commencement cap, reads over postgraduation for a chance to travel , secondary information on th e cou nselor 's bulletin board probably to the Fugi Islands or Taiwan," said senior Kyle Dyas. tried to put together a slide show of seniors from old Shield pictures to present. People wore and bought tsh i:rts, and teachers served chips, hamburgers, and beans. "

The actual commencement featured a procession - of graduates, many speakers, and Court Choir will perform for entertainment. Each year two seniors are chosen from many who read their prepared speeches in front of English teachers who pose as judges. Selina Shultz and Rob Mclntarffer were chosen to express their parting words to the class of '86.

Shultz and McEntarffer speculate that their speeches will be a bit different from past years. "We will talk about where we are going in life rather than the traditional memories and togetherness," said Shultz. McEntarffer's speech is entitled "I just don't remember", and it presents how important the experiences that relate to the future rather than the facts that have been taught.

Senior foreign exchange student Georg Dusel displayed a positive outlook on the experiences he had and the friends he made. "I hope to come back to the U.S. sometime and see my friends again, and I hope at least some of them will visit me if they come to Germany."

Girls' Tennis

Girl netters have depth

Depth and perseverence were th re main qualities of the girls tennis teams this year. 11There are no major superstars on ou r team. We have a great amount of competition among ourselves. " said junior Ginny Wood.

11The team is very balanced This gives us a great deal of depth and allows us to win matches at the lower positions in duals."

Winning matches at the lower positions could be very helpful Offen, meets were decided by who wins the number five and number six singles matches. In a team sport, such as tennis, each match is of equal value. Therefore , the number six singles match counts just as much as the number one match.

The team had a great deal of unity. This unity was exemplified not only in the duals, but in the fact that the team elected not to choose

captains . This was not a normal policy, but the team decided that in order to enhance team unity, itwould be better. The decision allowed the team to work together, rather than having certain members stand out as being better players or more popular.

This year, more girls went out than ever before. The tryouts with 55 people. This list was cut to just 21 in a couple of weeks after close observation and evaluation by the coaches. The 21 consisted of 11 varsity and 1O reserve players.

After narrowing the group from 55 into 21 players, the teams set unofficial goals. The varsity team set a goal of finishing among the top five teams at state. The two teams expected to finish highly at the State Tournament were Omaha Westside and Lincoln East. Both teams had three or more people ranking in the

top ten in the state in their respective aoe dMsions.

The reserve team found itself in a position of having good depth also The reserve team did not have a State tournament to look to Their season climaxed at the city tournament on May 19th and 20th. The team had high hopes for the tournament.

11 1fwe keep working hard and all goes well, I think we will have a good chance of winning the citytournament," said Junior April Davis Davis played number two singles and number one doubles for the reserve team. The team had practice every day at Southeast and did a variety of actMties. The activities included drills , sprints, working with the ball machine, and two or three challenge matches a week.

Boys' Golf Boys swing into action

"We are so good that we really don't need practice. We basically like to get out and get a nice tan. That's why we go to practice," jokingly claims senior Hap Pocras, yet sincerely adds , 'We are the team to beat, a definite favorite for state."

The boy's golf team was not only out for the fierce competition but out to have a good time. "It's fun getting dressed up for the meets in my plaid pants," said senior Brett Harris. "We have fun at practice, but we get pretty serious at the meets." This dedication came through when the golf team came in

first at thier first meet, the Beatrice Invite on March 27.

The returning members of the golf team this year include Brett Harris, Hap Pocras, and Dave Harr. To prepare, however, for this intense sport, practice begins long before high school. Harris has· been playing for the last 8-9years and he also plans to play in tournaments this summer. As for Pocras' future, he plans to, "play golf at the University of Miami and I hope to tum pro in 5-6 years," he said.

Being at the end of the year, boys' golf does not recieve very much school

support. The lack of support did not seem to bother the team yet Pocras said, "the drill team would not be a bad idea at the conclusion of each meet." Harris, however, had "no comment" on school support.

The team had a successful season. As Harris put it, "After taking state last year and returning most of the members, we felt that we had a better than good chance of taking state and we thought we've all but proved ourselves."

The boy's wrapped up the season May 22 at Columbus, at state competition.

Experience aids season

"I ndMduals working together and working hard for our ultimate goal is the key to our success," said sophomore Monica McGuire.

Each individual was essential to adding to the girls' track and field reaching the ultimate goal this year. 'We've got a lot of people rated andwe've got room to breathe in all the events," said coach Nancy Johnson.

The indMduals for the most part, worked separately , concentrating on their event. The team was dMded into specialized areas. Each area had its own work out and different coach to provide the individual with more specialized attention.

"I appreciate my coach for being able to give me extra attention in the hurdles, he's given me the extra confidence to to do good," said sophomore Jona Turner. The hurrdles, discs, distancers and spriters were all given specialized time and work to be most beneficial to their needs.

The sprinter and hurdlers concentrated on the accuarancey of good starts and finishes. The distancers alternated their mileage and speed work. The throwers worked on building upper body strenghth and improving their for

"Ifs an advantage having specific coaches for our events, but it sometimes causes our team unify not to be as strong," said junior Julie Novak.

Team unify as a whole may have been considered the weak point of the team this year, but the unify of specialized events was a definite advantage.

"Our team is sometimes putdown for the way we stay together at meets, but I think its just jealously," said sophomore Amy Elmore. The team has been commented by many different teams for the way that they run their races. The distance and sprinters stay together when running in a meet. "They use each other to pace, they know .

how fast the other runner from their team is, and they use it to their advantage," said caoch Johnson.

"People really encourage us and through this we are able to do good in meets," said Turner. The teams encouragement was beneficial to a successful year in the meets. "We really did awesome this year, we only lost a couple of meets," said senior Kim McKenize.

The only two losses this year were at Millard North and at the Greater Nebraska Conference. The teammates felt that this was caused by an "off day'' and not a very good line up of the events.

"I feel that if we kepp going at that pace we've been at this year, the only results can be successful," said Maguire.

The optamistic attitude, hard work and determination paid off in the final results of the state placing.

,,, his group of kids wants to work; they aren't afraid of working," said head coach Roy Churchill. Butthis willingness to work, in addition to the plentiful good weather, may have been the cause of the team's "abnormally large" number of injuries, according to Churchill. Pulled hamstrings, hip pointers, near stress fractures, a bad back, turned ankles, and shin splints have plagued the team, but they kept "gMng their very level best" during practices and they competed well, Churchill said.

Two weeks after the season ·began, the team hit its low point, placing fourth at the Lincoln Public Schools Relays, but they "just started scoring betterafterthat," said Churchill. Only a week later at the Grand Island Invitational, even though the team again placed fourth, they beat all the Lincoln teams. At the Fremont Invitational the following week, they lost to Lincoln High by only one point.

One meet that stood out from the rest was the Norfolk Invitational on April 26. 'We 242/Boys' Track

had a thrilling night on Prom night," Churchill said. 'We got caught in a tornado warning. It was serious."

Despite the problems the team has had, Churchill said he felt good about the season. "About fifty percent of the kids are sophomores; they did pretty dam good for a sophomore team." One sophomore in particular, Nate Nielsen, who was "blessed with speed and endurance and all those things" was mentioned by Churchill as a main contributor of points to the team.

Having a primarily sophomore team, however, creates a bright outlook for the future, Churchill said. "If they continue to develop and get another strong class behind them, they're going to be GOOD. We're not going to be fourth place, I can tel I you that!"

Aside from consisting of mostly sophomores, the 1985-86 boys' track team was also relatively small. The number of boys who tried out was minimal, so there were "not enough bodies for a real reserve team," said Churchill. The other Lincoln teams didn't have "real"

reserve teams, either. Churchill commented that the number of boys going out for track has dwindled to about half of what it was in the '70's. "What causes this phenomenon, I don't know," he said.

Churchill added that the coaching staff was getting everything they could from the number of boys they had. He said that the new jump coach, Jane Edwards had "a very positive effect on the kids," and that she has adapted her engineering and physics background very wel I to her coaching. Although her reporwith the boys has been different than that of the other coaches, Churchill said it has been equally effetcive. "She's just as demanding as any of the men are, but it comes through in a much different way."

Summing up the season, junior Scott Hatfield said, 'We need to get older...we're a young team." The sophomores and juniors were being trained for the following year, yet the whole team competed well, Churchill said.

"They're a good bunch of young men."

Varsity Baseball Warm spring beneficial

An unusal Nebraska spring, warm and dry instead of cool and wet, produced a seasonwhereonlyonegame was postponed because of bad weather.

Even though the weather cooperated, other teams didn't. The team found itself plagued by inconsistency throughout the season.

'We haven't played consistently," said head coach Randy Brolhorst. He added that he didn't stress the win/loss record but team unity instead. ''You have to care about each other enough to be able to play as a team."

Senior Troy League said, 'We're not one of the better teams in the city, and we haven't been playing well as a team."

'We've got a good team, we have a lot of team unity," said senior Pat McGinn, "when we come together we're unbeatable."

The goals set at the beginning of the season were, "to be the best possible team we could be and to play the type of basesball we are capable of playing," according to Brolhorst.

Loosing twice to Northeast and once to East did not dim the hopes of beating Lincoln High on April 6th. Behind a no-hit pitching performance by League the team crusied to a 13-1 victory.

Lincoln High had help scoring their run which came in the fourth inning as Southeast committed two errors in the inning.

In intra-city games the Knights finished with a record

of 2-3. Northeast took the city title.

Practices started two weeks before the first game and consisted of conditioning, stretching, infield and batting practice. "He makes you work real hard," League said about the way Brolhorst ran the practices. "He wants you to have fun, but you also have to concentrate and hustle. You have to do your job," added McGinn.

Brolhorst had this to say about the season, "We've learned a lot about ourselves and it's been a challenging year for all of us." McGinn added, 'We had a lot of fun."

The season ended for the Knights with a disappointing loss to Lincoln High in the first round of district playoffs on May 12.

Reserve/Sophomore Baseba 11 Teamwork is the key

''We·reimproving each game since the start of the season," said reserve coach, Gene Thompson. 'We're beginning to play better as a team."

The reserves finished the regular season with a winning season. The season was "really good" according to junior Chris Thompson. "At the -beginning, we concentrated on ourselves. At the end, we were trying to make each other better."

Making players better is a. major goal. "One of the things the .N program tries to do is develop varsity players," said Thompson. "Because of the short season we tend to

concentrate more on hitting and pitching because that's what wins the games."

The teams practiced for two hours after school and practiced on some Saturdays. The teams worked on baseball fundamentals including hitting, fielding, pitching, and bunting.

The sophomres finished the regular season as the undefeated city champs with a record of 9-0. "The season was real good because we won," said sophomore Scott Wade. "We have a lot of potential and we're working as a team."

Coming from behind was common for the sopho-

mores who rallied to a win in 7 out of the 9 regular season games. "Our first inning isn't really good, but then we get our bats going," said sophomore Scott Oehm.

'We've been more enthusiastic than other teams we've played," explained sophomore coach Dan Dougherty. "When we get behind the kids get more enthusiastic."

"They've become a closer unit," Dougherty added. "They've worked better as a team because they've started to support each other. We've worked better as a team."

Extra effort pays off Students awarded for acheivement

"We always hear so much of the negative about teenagers and our students," said counselor Jan Millnitz. She said that the Awards Program was good because it brought students recognition to themselves and to the school, and that it was important that these students be recognized.

The Thirty-first Annual Awards Program, held May 12, recognized students for outstanding acheivement in many areas of school activities. The 24 page award booklet which was given out the night of the program listed those students who had received awards in the areas of art, atheletics, business, speech and debate, drama, journalism, foreign languages, music, and mathematics. Service awards form such organizations as the Elks Club and the Seretoma Club were also included. The majority of the program, however, was devoted to those students who were National Merit Scholars or finalists, and to those students who were awarded scholarships to a variety of colleges and universities.

Also included in the awards booklet were those students who were members of the National Honor Society The National Honor Society members, which consisted of 133 seniors who maintained a grade-point average of 2.0 or higher and participated in at least two extra-

curricular activities, were given special rocognition at the Honors Convocation held in the John Prasch gym March 19. Carl Curtis, a former U.S. Senator, was the speaker. Each member was given the privilage of wearing a black and gold sash for the entire day until they had to be returned to the counselors office by 4 p.m.

Students were not the only ones who received honors for their outstanding acheivements. Dr. Melissa Beall, an English teacher and speech/debate · coach, was awarded the Scottish Rite Distinguished Teacher Award. The award was given to her at a sixth period all-school assembly. Dr. Beall has taught at Southeast for 11 years, and in the past three years has coached the speech and debate members to two national awards for excellence, won the district tournament sweepstakes trophy for national wualifying events, and sent seven students to Nationals competition.

· Whether it be academics, atheletics, or community services, the Knights had many honors bestowed upon them. Recognition forthese determined efforts let other students, as well as parents and the faculty, know of the honors that many students and received.
