Southeast High 1987 Yearbook

CONTENTS

Student Life 6-25

People 26-81

Academics 82-11 S

Even though their daily school routine was basically the same, students added variety - and surprises - to their ·lives outside of school.

Those who provided the Knight Surprises were the students and faculty, a diverse group which created an out-of-the ordinary year.

Clubs 114-125

Sports 126-161

Students were given a surprise by Lincol 1 Public Schools when six class period became required, rather than five. Th wide variety of classes gave student many options in filling their new require ment

Business 162-212

Many students took the opportunity to join one or more different clubs. These groups of students with common interests sometimes took part in some uncommon activities. This section is a survey of some of those activities.

The conditioning and psyching up that athletes went through to prepare for their events were as expected, but their efforts sometimes produced some unexpected results.

Hoping to influence the spending high school students, many l9cal bus nesses bought advertising space. StL dents, however, added little surprises b buying space of their own.

TOW COUNTRY

"This is tow country!" Larry Eaton's frequent warnings weren't heeded by senior Kurt Westberg, whose car is being towed while Vice-principal Eaton and hall monitor Shahid Salahuddin supervise the first towing of the year.

PSAT KING

St-if( tki c.5amt ...

The physical changes that have been so predominant over the years are gone -there was no new building or new parking lot this year. There was no obvious change that affected our lives this year, but changes did take place.

Maybe it was the simple change for sophomores to go from junior high to a much larger high school.

Although some sophomores were overwhelmed by being lost in the crowd, others enjoyed it.

"I like Southeast because I don't know anybody, so I don't have to say, 'Hi' in the halls," admitted sophomore Kipper Hesse.

For juniors and seniors though, Southeast was "old hat". The biggest physical surprise they received was the two new sidewalks in the south courtyard.

"The new sidewalks are great," said

junior Anita Sawyer, "Your moccasins don't get soaked."

But Southeast had other surprises~ Some changed the lives of many, in ways we didn't expect.

We were shocked and saddened by the death of Mike Hansen a week before school started. Through the help of senior Scott Wright and teacher Mike Ware, however, we have all been made aware of the value of life. Many of us who were at one time "inconvenienced" by the mandatory seatbelt law, now are surprised to find ourselves buckling up, as if our life depended on it, which is truly the case.

A surprise and honor came to Southeast when the PSA T test scores came back. As a school, we had the most students in the state to place highly. There were nine students who received a honorable mention of commendation,

12 students who were National Merit Semi-Finalists, and, most impressive of all, we had senior fvlatt Wigdall, who placed highest in the state.

The surprise that really shocked many and made us once again believe miracles did happen - the semester break Ski trip was not cancelle~!!!

Southeast was not the only place surprises took place this year. Many surprising things happened throughout Lincoln and Nebraska.

One day early fall, two trains collided in south Lincoln while both were on the same track.

Two women were chosen to run for governor, which is a first for the state of Nebraska and the nation.

A freak hailstorm bombarded Omaha

during mid-September leaving them with one foot of hail.

President Ronald Reagan appeared in Omaha on behalf of gubernatorial candidate Kay Orr, and the Lincoln High band was chosen to play before him. Then they were told they couldn't. Then they were told they could. It ended up they didn't play because of a school policy prohibiting groups from performing for political purposes

This year we've come to appreciate the fact that we don't always need some sort of surprising change to make life entertaining. We can take each day as a surprise and joy simply for what we've learned and accomplished for that day.

For the Knights are full of surprises.

Variety spices life

Summer and fun go hand-inhand. Since there were no more tests to study for or papers to write, students were able to break loose and have fun.

Many students traveled as a way to enjoy the summer life. Senior Shelley Smith went to Mexico City with her church youth group to help the people recover from the tremendous earthquake they had encountered. "It was good for me to see what the Mexicans went through and what they are experiencing now as a result," Smith said.

Younglife, a youth group that is not school-affiliated, held a camp called "Frontier" near Buena Vista, Colo. Senior Shannon Toalson attended Frontier along with about 80 other Lincoln kids. The camp lasted a week, and Toalson said they kept busy "four-wheelin' ", horse-back riding, and mountain climbing. "It's definitely something I'll neverforget," soid Toalson.

Some students really broke loose and went overseas to the Far East. Senior Bart Sidles and junior Jamie McCle.UQ[)d were two of 26 students chosen as ambassadors by

People to People, a national organization. "ltwasso incrediblestanding on the Great Wall and realizing that I was halfway around the world," said Sidles.

Here in the United States, the Statue of Liberty's restoration and 100th birthdaywere celebrated with a multi-million dollar extravaganza. The "new lady" was greeted by the world's largest armada and with a spectacular array of fireworks. The Fourth of July weekend revealed America's true spirit of freedom.

Those who stayed here in Lincoln experienced many days of cool, wet weather. Despite this minor setback, students still made the most Of summer.

Moons and stars of gold and silver foil paper shone as students post and present entered the North Gym for "One Shining Knight" of tradition.

"Since the theme was 'night' we decided to decorate the gym in metallics," said junior Mindy 13eny, Pep Club vice-president.

Early in the evening, the Homecoming festivities began on the sideline of Seacrest Field as Court Choir song the notional anthem ~ The crowd turned to the flog pole as they song along, but there was no flog. One Northeast fan in the stands quipped, "It must be due to budget cuts."

Usually stored in the pressbox, the flog could not be found when bond director Bob Krueger asked some bond members to raise it.

About 60 bond alumni joined the marching bond in ploying the fight song at the end of the pregame show, and they performed on the field with the bond at half time.

As the clock was running out on

half time, the Homecoming royalty candidates were quickly presented on the field.

"It was really scary to me," Homecoming Queen Ginny Wood said, "It was something that I'd only wont to do once."

In the second half of the game, the football team scored more than in the first half, giving the wildly cheering crowd a victory of 28-7 over the Northeast Rockets.

Around 10:00, students and alumni began filtering into the goldand silver-decorated North Gym as recorded music blared from Complete Music's sound system.

Halfway through the dance, a red carpet was rolled out as the Homecoming royalty were announced from fourth runners-up to the king and queen.

"When they said my name, I thought they said someone else's name," Nun said, "I just thought '9h well, at least I was elected a candidate.'"

Issues draw interest

Whether it was by working, volunteering, or attending a Nebraska football game, community involvement ployed on important role in students' lives.

Citizenship Issues, a senior requirement, was a key factor in getting students working in the community. In order to graduate, seniors hod to put in 20 hours of volunteer time in some organization.

"When you volunteer, you learn more about your community and you realize how many programs ore available to you as a citizen," said senior Heather Horocek, who volunteered as a Red Cross swim teacher.

The November elections offered a good chance for students to vol unteer during campaigning. Some chose to volunteer to fill their Cit Issues requirement, while others did it just for the learning experience.

Senior Rochelle Becker began volunteering for the Helen Boosalis campaign lost summer. As campaign time got closer, she was promoted to Student Coordiotor for Southeast, which mode her in charge of getting volunteers to put up yard signs and hand out stickers during football games.

A campaign of another kind was started by senior Scott Wright and Cit Issues teacher Mike Wore ofter a car occident killed Wright's best friend, Mike Hansen, lost summer.

Hansen, who would hove been a senior this year, was thrown from the car when it rolled over, because he was not wearing a seatbelt. As a result of this, Wright and Wore started campaigning the importance of seatbelts.

The two hove been involved in such activities as talking to classes, toking polls to see hON many people wear seatbelts and working against the repeal of the safety belt low. Wright is also on Mayor Roland Luedtke' s Teenoge Safety Belt Task Force.

" The most effective way of getting people to wear their seatbelts is probably the saddest, and that is to experience the death of someone close to you," said Wore.

One of the more entertaining ways of getting involved in the community was to attend the NU football games. On football Saturdays, the third most populated "city" in Nebraska is Memorial Stadium.

Theme dances prevail

"We've come a long way, baby " (from a sock-hop to the Pajama Jam, from the Charleston to slam-dancing) " and my, how we've changed!"

Many dances were held at Southeast and each of them had a certain theme. The Hawaiian Dance, Pajama Jam and Toga Dance were just a few.

"I think the themes are getting boring," senior Brian Hoffman said, "they're the same every year."

But, Hoffman and junior Carol Muller said they would not want to have a dance without a theme.

'Themes are good they're the purpose for the dance," Muller said.

Hoffman and Muller agreed they liked the dances because of all the people, but they said they did not go to a lot of them because "there [ was] something more exciting going on," Hoffman said.

"I don't like the music that's played," Muller said.

According to sophomore Pat Piper, one of the reasons the dances were not that much fun was because "people are afraid to dress up [in

theme costume]."

At the dances, Hoffman, Muller, and Piper said they talked and got into groups and danced.

"I talk and slam a little bit and get into groups and jump up and down," Hoffman said.

A Student Council dance was planned two weeks before Prom.

"Eaton didn'twant[us] to have that date .it really doesn't matter that much to us," said junior Susan Brown, Student Council member.

Brown said the only reason the date was not the best was because Student Council was busy in the spring.

Most of the Southeast dances were informal, but there were a few that were otherwise. Homecoming and Prom required more formal dressing, rather than pajamas or a lei.

Another place Southeast students went dancing was at Celebration, which had Teen Night on Sundays. Stooges was also a popular place for the Knights on Wednesday, Friday and Sunday nights.

Search for arms answer

When students found out the foll ploy was about nuclear war , many felt the ploy was going to be a very serious drama

This wasn't the case with " End of the World " The tone of the ploywos a comedy/drama

The ploy revolved around a playwright, Mike Trent, who was ployed by senior [3en Zink Trent, who sow himself as a " Mike Hommer" type of detective and wore a trenchcoot throughout most of the ploy, investigated the arms issue.

The ploy could hove been considered autobiographical because playwright Arthur Kopit was commissioned to write this ploy about nuclear war.

" I decided to do this ploy because I thought it hod on important script," said Carol Svoboda , supervisor and director of the ploy. " It mode people think about nuclear war, but it wasn't depressing I I iked how i t approached the issue with humor."

Junior Kristin Linder ployed Stone, the woman who wonted Trent to write a ploy about nuclear war . " My character was hard to relate to because she hod this · fascination with nuclear war "

" I don't think we will hove a nuclear war in my lifetime ," said sophomore Lisa Keith, " but the ploy kind of mode me think about nuclear war and what it would be like ."

" I thought the most important port of the ploy was in the third secene where Trent mode the two discoveries,'' Svoboda said Trent discovered the reasoning behind the nuclear arms race , and why he was commissioned to write the ploy. _

"I also liked the port when Stone was describing the weapons and the nuclear tests she hod seen," Svoboda added.

" I liked being in the ploy." said Steinauer ' 'I'm kind of shy, so I wonted to see if I could see if I could do it It was a new experience and I met a lot of really nice people ."

Knight and Lady Traditional honor continues

Knight and Lady was an annual award given to five senior boys and five senior girls based on their achievement in and out of school.

This traditional award began in 195 7 with only one senior boy and girl chosen by the yearbook staff. Eventually, the number of recipients changed to ten, and Student Council was given the duty of handling the elections.

The process for choosing the finalists began with Student Council making

a list of guidelines for this award and distributing these guidelines to the faculty. Thefacultythen nominated people who they felt met these criteria best. A ballot was drawn up based on these nominations, and the faculty voted on the final ten.

The guidelines for this award were as follows: involvement in school, involvement in the community, scholastic achievement, respect of faculty and staff, and respect of fellow students.

The president of Student Council, Knight Jim Neid was a varsity swimmer for three years, as well as president of Water Polo Club and a National Honor Society member.

With the top PSAT score in the state, Knight Matt Wlgdahl became a National Merit Finalist In the top of his class, he was president of Science Club and Math Club, as well as being in National Honor Society.

Playing varsity volleyball and basketball being a drum major didn't keep Lady Dana Meinke from being in National Honor Society. Also a talented bassoon player, she performed with groups in and out of school.

A three-year varsity gymnast and diver, Lady Shannon Toalson also used her athletic abilities to be a cheerleader and Shirette In the top of her class, she was a National Honor Society member

A varsity swimmer and president of his class every year, Knight Ed Pallesen also found time to be the yearbook editor. He was a member of National Honor Society and a National Merit Finalist

Staying on her toes academically and physically, Lady Jennifer Sartori was vice-president of National Honor Society and French Club , and she danced ballet, tap, and jazz in her time outside of school.

Strong swimming ski IIs were KnlgtJt J.B. Ban's claim to fame ; he broke two state records and was co-captain of the varsity team Also strong academically, he was a member of National Honor Society

Being co-captain of the varsity wrestling team, didn't stop Knight Marcus Batters from earning National Honor Society status In addition, he was elected Prom King and vice-president of his class

The queen of Prom and Homecoming, Lady Ginny Wood was also elected a Student Council me~ber and class officer, and she was a National Honor Society member, cheerleader, and three-year varsity tennis player.

While achieveing membership in National Honor Society, Lady Heidi Schwendlman was singing with Countesses and Noblemen and dancing with the Shirettes as their captain

SlfflRLY ADVICE

Since senior Rachelle Becker has taken many of the same courses junior Melissa Becker is taking, she helps her do the

assignments.

Seniors share school with siblings••J,cboo

Some seniors shared school with their sophomore siblings.

"It's easy to take things out on her because she's always here at school," said senior Jessica Simon about her sophomore sister Claire.

Along with that disadvantage, Simon said that their arguments were always "overexaggerated" because everyone knew about the disagreements and made a big deal about them.

Katie Dimon, senior, also found a disadvantage in having a sister with her at school. "I hear gossip about her all the time," said Dimon of her sister Sarah, a sophomore.

When it came to homework, though, the Dimons found their relationship to be an advantage. Katie and Sarah took the same French class and could help each other with their assignments.

Senior Brad Vasa said that an advantage to having

his brother Troy, junior, at school with him is that he cou Id borrow money when necessary.

Brad said he thought that the younger sibling had the advantage, because they could use the experiences of the older. He said he helped Troy with homework and advised him about which teachers to get.

The Haefles found their mutual interests in sports and common friendships to be an advantage in their schoo l relationship.

Sue Haefle, senior, said that she and Lynn, her sophomore sister, were both involved on the vol leyba 11 and basketbal I teams. Since they had the same friends, they spent a lot of time together after games and on weekends.

" I think she's a great sister," said Sue Haefle.

Death of student fuels seat belt issue

Mike Hansen died in a one-car accident on August 26, a week before he was to begin his senior year at Southeast.

Hansen, senior Scott Wright, and two others not from Southeast, Denise Badders and Sydney Brown, were thrown from the car when Hansen lost control of it on South Coddington Drive, a gravel road. Wright, Badders, and Brown were injured, but survived.

Seat belts were not worn by Hansen or his passengers. "If Mike would have worn his seat belt," Wright said in a letter to the Clarion, "he would be alive today."

As a result of Hansen's death, Wright and teacher

Mike Ware waged a campaign promoting the use of seat belts and asking voters to support the seat belt law.

'We want to have something good come from Mike's death," Ware wrote in a Clarion editorial. "Help us prevent another tragedy."

As a part of their campaign, Ware and Wright conducted a seat belt pol I and an observation of student drivers

The seat belt poll was taken by approximately equal numbers of sophomores, juniors , and seniors. Out of 173 students, 50 percent said they "always" wore their seat belts; 15 percent said "never''.

To observe student drivers, Ware, Wright, and eight volunteers positioned themselves at the exits of the school parking lots. Out of 219 cars and 505 people, 44 percent of the drivers, 41 percent of the front passengers, and 16 percent of the the rear passengers were wearing their seat belts.

In memory of Mike Hansen, a memorial fund was formed which was to be used for scholarships for Southeast students.

Dateless weekend nights lack tragedy

When it was a Friday or Saturday night, and the plans for the evening did not revolve around a date, it wasn't a tragedy for many.

"If you don 't have a date, it's not such a big deal anymore ," said Heidi Schwendiman, senior.

Schwendiman said she enjoyed finding "stupid things" to do with her friends when she didn't have a date. Those "things" included playing practical jokes on people or just hanging around at people's homes and talking.

"I just stay at home and watch T.V. if I don't have a date," said sophomore Kari SWanson.

SWanson said that when she was faced with a dateless weekend, she opted for bowling and hanging out with friends at at Valentino's offer basketball games.

Exercising was chosen by some when they didn't have a date. Todd Bowman, junior, said he went to the

Raquet Club and lined weights. Either that, or he would get a bunch of friends together and play Ping-Pong.

Trevin Seng, junior, found that sleeping was one way to kill a weekend, and found "partying" to be an alternative to dating

"I move with the parties," said Seng.

A dateless Friday or Saturday night didn't have to be a letdown , as junior Jona Turner found out.

"Just because you don't have a date, it doesn't mean you're undateable because different people have different chemistry," said Turner.

Turner said that on some nights she rented movies and invited friends over Other times she said she kept busy by watching Falcon Crest and Dallas.

"I like doing stuff with my friends, but a date would be great once in a while," said Turner.

That's a{I it takes for ''full tobacco pleasure", and a mouthdecaying bad habit , as this student is about to find out

Breaking bad habits seems impossible

"I tell myself to stop, and I try and stop for a week or so, but then I start up again, but it's not as -bad as before," said senior Mark Olson.

What Olson was talking about was his habit of chewing tobacco. Bad habits were something everybody had. They ranged anywhere from smoking and chewing to procrastination and speeding.

"I'm always about five minutes late to everything , so that makes me drive too fast," said senior Scott Hatfield. "My other bad habit is fidgeting too much, which irritates everyone around me Otherwise, I'm perfect."

Hatfield went on to say he thought one reason people started bad habits was because "they are bored, or because they get a thrill off it, like me and my drMng too fast "

Being around people who had the same habits wa s the biggest reason for starting bad habits.

Senior Jenny Wehnes said she loses her temper to o much. "I got my bad temper from my dad," said Wehnes "If I get mad , I try and blow it off or I think about th e situation and discuss it calmly instead of yelling about it. "

Most people agreed that stopping their bad habits was a lot harder than starting them. Senior Mimi Lambe rt found it impossible to stop her habit of procrastinating. " I will think of any hairbrained excuse not to do something " she said.

Hatfield said he 's never tried to stop his bad habits because "they don't bother me at all."

SENIORS

EARLY BIRDS

Having planned far enough ahead to meet the requirements for mid-term graduation, these seniors are meeting to go over the final details before the semester ends

Early graduation allows head stciff""°'

For most seniors, the end of first semester meant a longer weekend and only one more semester to go. For others, the mid-term graduates, it marked the end of their high school years.

Mid-term graduates had a variety of reasons for leaving high school early.

"I had enough credits," explained senior John Reifschneider, "and I'd rather get out of school and earn some money." Reifschneider had already lined up a fulltime job as a meat cutter at a grocery store, Hinky Dinky.

Mid-term graduate Alex Okray explained his early graduation . "I already put in enough class hours in my sophomore and junior years that I shouldn't take it anymore except with university classes."

Jerry Fynbu, senior, said that he graduated at midterm because he didn't like high school and thought that Southeast was "a hole". To Fynbu, graduation meant moving out and saving money for college.

Others, like senior Roberta Kleman, graduated to begin college earlier. She started regular classes a t Southeast Community College in March.

To mid-term graduates like Kleman, a graduation ceremony did not mean much. "I don't think it's a bi g deal. I don't think a big gradution ceremony makes tha t big of a difference."

Reifschneider thought otherwise. "Graduating at midterm isn't half as exciting as graduating at the end of a year." He added that he would have liked to have had a mid-term graduation ceremony.

But, with or without a big graduation ceremony, midterm graduates left Southeast at the end of the first semester.

"I wanted that 'extra push'," further explained Okray, "and I feel that graduating mid-term gives me it."

TEACHER'S PET?

As senior Dave Howe and photer graphyteacher Gerald Christensen mug for the camera, they demonstrate a teacher-student friendship

Seniors offer teacher-pleasing tips

Many students have taken one of those classes where grades seemed to be based on how wel I the teacher liked each student rather than on how well the subject matter was understood.

For some, it also seemed like there were rules to the game of winning a teacher's favor.

Good behavior in class was an important strategy, and senior Judy Peeks offered some tips. "Always smile and act like you are listening, and enjoying, and understanding everything the teacher is saying. Laugh at all of their jokes - stupid or not."

She also advised communicating with friends in sign language rather than speaking, and sleeping with your eyes open.

Another senior with advice about classroom behavi o was Tony Loth. He recommended not being a troubl e maker, being friendly rather than obnoxious, and o p · pearing attentive.

Another basic strategy was doing homework on e other assignments well. "Always write neatly," said Loth "Ask for specifications like whether or not to double spac e and what the margins are supposed to be, and alway write more than you're required to."

Loth added that asking to do favors for the teacher , "brown-nosing", didn't really accomplish much. "It give ~ you a better teacher-student relationship, but it doesn 't always help your grade."

Senior Brett Eby types out a college application , though he 's not quite sure about his plans for after high school.

Post high school years bring anxiety

When the topic of graduation came up, it brought to mind caps and gowns, diplomas , and parties. However, graduation also meant the end of high school , which was a frightening prospect for many seniors.

One of the biggest fears for seniors was going away to school and leaving that to which they were accustomed.

"People say 'Yeah, I'm going away to college and it's going to be great, ' but you don't feel the complete impact of leaving until you are there, " said senior Jim Neid. "It can completely change your built-up friendships in just one year "

Senior Cherise Grimit said she felt her biggest fear was leaving her friends and " not having Mom and Dad there

to give me money all the time."

Senior Ann Kozak said she already knew that sh e wanted to work in the music business , but was afraid of not succeedinQ.

Most everyone agreed that one way to overcome this fear was to talk to people who have already graduated. "I've known many, many people who have gone away to school, so it's not like it can't be done," said Neid. "On the whole it will be an entirely new experience. Once you get accustomed to the change, it won't be a fear like it is right now "

Choice of idols changes with taste

Idols could have been anyone: sports heroes, musicians, actors, relatives or even a best friend.

Senior Jil Briggs said, "One of the musicians I admire is Vanity, just because she's gorgeous and open and she doesn't care what other people think."

Idols, however, did change. "When I was little , I idolized Farrah Fawcett," said Briggs

"I think your idols change over the years because you grow up and change," said senior Jay Greathouse. He'd changed the focus of his admiration from his father to Steve Cram, a runner.

"He came from the bottom and suddenly overnight he was a household name," Greathouse said.

"I think my idols have changed because before I thought, 'Oh, they're so cute!' but now I look at their Qualities and their personality," said senior Juli Johnson.

When Johnson was younger she idolized Shawn Cassidy and Donny Osmond, but she switched to Pres i• dent Kennedy. "I think he was neat because he was so open and relaxed with people "

Senior Steve Smith said he admired Clint Eastwood " 1 think he's pretty cool, I like his lifestyle."

"People need idols as someone to look up to ," sai d Briggs. "I think my idols have changed because I have grown up and changed ."

"I think people idolize other people because they have qualities that they admire for themselves," said Johnson

"I think people have idols to fashion themselve s after," said Greathouse. "But I wouldn't be surprised if my idols changed again ."

LOTS OF L1GOS

Wanting to be an architect was one of senior Carrie lmig's childhood dreams. This urge to design began when Imig played with Legos.

Facing the real world alters dreams

Some students' childhood dreams of their future goals changed as they began to face reality.

Senior Andy Bretz said he had always dreamed of becoming a fireman. He got the idea from the television show, "Emergency''. Mer becoming "older and wiser", however, he decided to be an accountant.

"I'm good with numbers and there is lots of opportunity for it," said Bretz.

Bretz's aspirations were not all career-oriented, though. When it came to girls, he never had just one in mind. Bretz said that in elementary school he had "hundreds of girlfriends." Now he said there are only "distinct possibilities."

Senior Dawn Parks said, "When I was little, I used to like Matt Renicer. I thought we would get married."

When Parks was younger, college · was not in her future plans, but the pursuit of a career changed that.

"I thought I would never go to college. I thought I would just be a housewife. Then I decided that I wanted to

be a teacher, so I have to go to college."

Parks said she had originally wanted to be a teache r because she liked to boss little kids around. But, her interests changed, and she aimed for a fashion caree r instead.

"I love clothes and I love to shop and I also like to design things," she said.

Money was a primary factor in senior Stephani e Gray's childhood dreams. "I wanted to marry a princ e and be rich," said Gray, "and I used to pretend I wa s married to John Schnieder."

Even when she was a child, Gray picked a highpaying occupation, "I used to want to go to Harvard and be a lawyer because I thought it would be neat to go to court and help people."

Gray said she wanted to go to the dental college a t the University of Nebraska, though, because she thought it ''would be difficult to get into the law profession."

Underclassmen are full of talent

It has been said that, as you progress through · life, whether or not you succeed depends on how much effort you put forth.

There was an array of successful students with surprising talents and gifts, but onen times other students never discovered these gifts.

Sophomore Lee Kiechel's talent with horses won her an award; the 1986 National Dressage Association's "Horse of the Year'' award. Kiechel received the award on December 12.

She had ridden her German warmblood, Wienergraf, for five years and said she considered this accomplishment very fulfilling and deserved.

"After five years of hard work, it is nice to get something to show for your endurance," claimed Kiechel.

In addition, there were those students who were able not only to keep their academics at a high level, but also to excel at some form of extracurricular activity.

Junior Kathy Titsworth was a good example of a student with the ability to

juggle practicing with studying. Cross country and track filled her anemoons, and her desire to receive good grades in A.P. History and Band required many hours of studying history and practicing flute.

"It seems I never have enough time to myself, but the feeling of accomplishment when I finish a race, ace a test, or help spirit our team to a victory is well worth my time," said Titsworth.

Another student who excelled both academically and athletically was junior Marcus Rowe. Besides playing varsity footbal I during his junior year, Rowe managed to maintain a straight one average.

'Tve always kept the theory that if you want to do good at something you need to work at it, or practice, as in football," explained Rowe. "Otherwise, you're not gMng your full effort forth, so you won't receive the full benefit of your work."

Hobbies of all sorts were practiced by many students. Sophomore Chelsea Chelsen had a hobby that

St<"'! tted at childhood. She had started playing violin following the Suzuki method at ag~ three.

In the begi •ming, it was her parents' idea for her to take lessons. Yet, Chelsen admitted, "You just kind of get caught up in it and can't quit, it becomes part of your life."

Although Chelsen was taking lessons at UNL from the conductor of the Lincoln Youth Symphony, she said she did not want to make a career of playing the violin.

"I do it for fun, not for a IMng," claimed Chelsen. "I see a lot of musicians that are totally starving."

Surely, these were not the only sophomores or juniors who accomplished something or who deserved credit for their attempts at self-improvement. Each student in his or her own mind should have been able to list many feats of which they were proud, or about which they could have said they did their best.

-Andrea Alit

Student participates in Florida pageant

Nov. 10 - Nov 21, Stacy Kruse and her mother Janice Kruse were in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, to compete in a mother-daughter beauty pageant.

"We were among the 28 semi-finalists picked from 550 to be in the pageant," said Mrs. Kruse.

Stacy said, "We had one day where we fun-taped. They taped me and my mom lifting weights and doing aerobics."

"Ev~ntually," said Mrs. Kruse, "They made those tapings into commercials for the pageant show."

But, it wasn't all fun in the sun. They worked long and hard for the night when they would shine as stars.

On the preliminary night, Mrs. Kruse said, "We had to model swim wear in front of all the judges, go into a room of seven judges and again they shot questions at us, and then model evening gowns."

Being on stage wasn't as frightening as most people would think, they said.

Stacy said, "We practiced so much on it that when it

came down to it, it was so routine."

The night of the "real" pageant had arrived. After 1O days of rehearsals, rehearsals, and still more rehearsals, the lights, cameras, and action was greatly appreciated by the audience.

Within 40 minutes into the pageant, the top eight semi-finalists were announced.

Mrs. Kruse said, "We didn't make it, and I was terribly disappointed." On the other hand, Stacy said she wasn't disappointed because she didn't want to be seen in a swim suit on T.V.

After the swim wear, evening gown, and dancing competitions, and another question, the winners were announced. They were the mother-daughter couple from Miami.

Then came the "real" disappointment of the whole trip. Nov. 21 had arrived and it was time to depart for home.

Big-name bands come to Uncoln

Screaming guitars, pounding drums and flashing lights were popular sights and sounds in the past year in the Lincoln area. Many big-name bands played in the area including R.E.M., UB40, David Lee Roth, The Romantics, and others.

Also, a variety of styles, such as new wave, heavy metal, country, rock, and pop could be heard on the radio.

With this much variety, many students were lured to concerts to hear their favorite stars perform live and to get the feeling only a concert atmosphere could provide.

Junior Jill Haskell went to the R.E.M. concert and said, "It was so fun because so many of my friends were there."

Before the concert, Haskell and her friends listened to R.E.M. in their car to get readyfortheconcert. They arrived at Pershing Auditorium about 1 ½ hours before the concert started to get a good place in front of the stage.

"We danced through the whole thing," Haskell said.

Amanda Pursell, senior, also attended the R.E.M. concert and came home with a cracked rib from being crushed against a barricade in front of the stage.

'We got there super-early and we got pushed through the doors, then Michael Stipe (the lead singer) came on and everyone lunged forward and pushed me onto the barricade." Pursell cried with pain as her friend hyperventilated and got sick.

"Before the concert, we listened to R.E.M. tapes and during the concert we just danced and had a great time," she said.

Pursell had also been to see The Psychedelic Furs, Rick Springfield, and The Beach Boys concerts.

Most concerts were held at Pershing Auditorium, Bob Devaney Sports Center, The Royal Grove, The Drumstick, and the CMc Auditorium in Omaha.

Class overload causes "junior blues"

Was there any evidence to support the rumor that the junior year was the most stressful?

The junior year was, for many, the hardest year in high school.

Some juniors said they felt that the junior year was the time to get hard classes out of the way. The importance of attaining high grades, which colleges would see, also gave the juniors something to worry about

"I think the junior year is harder because decisions are made on what classes we need to take to get ready for college," said junior Dan Hadley.

A student who was getting the hard classes over with ahead of time was junior Dennis Rieke. His class load for his first semester included: Chemistry, Physics, Pre-calculus, German 3-4 and English Literature.

On top of that, Rieke also had a job.

Another student who had a heavy class load was junior Jason Agee.

Agee's classes included two AP. Classes, Philosophy, German 3-4, Algebra 3-4 and Chemistry.

How did students get through the "junior blues"? And why did many juniors take such hard classes?

Junior Jason Brasch, who had an AP. class said, "I took the hard class because everyone else does it." He also said that his junior year was a little easier for him than was his sophomore year.

Many others agreed that getting through the junio r year was tough. Some just "take it as it comes, and do their best," as Agee noted.

Curriculum, friends allract transfers

"I came to Southeast for more selection of classes," said junior Chad Bailey, "and there are more girls."

In addition to getting a new crop of sophomores each year, Southeast got students who had transferred from other schools for a variety of reasons, such as class selection and friends.

One major difference for transfer students was the size of Southeast. Bailey attended Lincoln Christian from kindergarten to tenth grade. The size of the school was 350 people, from kindergarten to twelfth grade.

"I like Southeast because there are a lot more people and the teachers are nicer," said Bailey, "and there are a lot more parties."

"I went my sophomore year because my dad wanted me to, but all my friends from Pound and Zeman are here, so I transferred," said Nelson.

Except for leaving their friends at their old school , neither student cou Id find anything wrong with transferring

"I like the people here because they are more individualized," said Nelson. "ThestudentsatCVAaretoo trendy and are always trying to be like everyone else ."

Bailey summed up his feelings on his change of schools by saying, "I'm having a lot of fun here. I'm glad I transferred."

Getting to school can be confusing

''What time are you leaving?"

"What comer shou Id I meet you at?"

"I thought you were driving today!"

These are examples of what some students had to go through every morning just to find out how they were getting to school. Some students wa lked, others drove, and some rode their bikes.

Although most students arrived on time, there were people who got to school early and sat in their cars until just before the bell rang, and those who showed up atthe last minute.

Junior John Roper was one of the people who genera Ily arrived with no time to spa re. "The reason I get to school late is because I like to get that last minute of sleep," said Roper.

Also, there were the students who got rides from their parents, usually sophomores without licenses. "I get a ride from my dad because I leave for school the same time he leaves for work," said junior Aaron Dietrich. "That way I can save gas and I won't have to worry about finding a parking place."

Juniors Mark Bunde and Geoff Rownd, who lived a block apart, said they took turns driving to school. "Some days we pick up other people on the way to school," said Bunde. "It's easier having to find just one parking place instead of two or three."

Junior Dan Gauchat got himself to school with his motorcycle, even when it was cold outside. "I ride my motorcycle because it takes less gas, and I never have to worry about finding a place to park," said Gauchat.

PSAT prepares juniors for college

As early as their junior year in high school, many students began preparing for college.

One form of planning was by taking classes which gave them an idea about what a certain career was like. Another form of planning was through the PSAT.

The PSATwas a test that was given only once a year in the fall. Although mainly juniors took the test, sophomores could also take it.

Through the PSAT, there was a scholarship awarded t? the finalists who scored the highest. One of the semifinalists was senior Todd Burger.

Burger, who prepared well for the test by attending the workshop and reading the booklet, said, "The honor of placing as a semi-finalist was something meaningful."

The efforts put out by Burger with his everyday school work paid for themselves with good grades. As for as the extra effort he put into the PSAT, Burger said, it would payoff by "getting into a good college."

Jessica Simon, who didn't prepare at all for the PSAT , was also a semi-finalist. "I really didn't even know what it was for," she said.

Nerves affect tryout performance

In order to be in certain activities or events, it was necessary to try out for them.

Senior Brian Gordon tried outforthevarsity basketball team and made it. He said tryouts narrowed down the best people possible for an activity.

"It creates a challenge like competition," said Gordon.

Senior Sandy Winkler tried out for Synkra-Knights. She said that tryouts gave her a chance to compete and to find out how she compared to others:

how I compared to others," said Winkler.

Trying out could also be a self-confidence booster like it was for junior Kerri Nazarenus.

"I felt I succeeded in doing what I set out to do," said Nazarenus.

Nazarenus also said that she could see how not being successful at tryouts could destroy someone's self-image.

"It's important to keep a positive attitude while trying out," said Nazarenus.

Chores vary from horses to houses ·

Chores. No one liked to do them, but they had to be done. Some people got rewarded for doing them, others didn't.

Chores could have been different for every person . " _,_ 1 Some chores included taking care of pets.

Senior Alice Bunge had her own horse, so her chores included its care and feeding. "I clean the stalls, feed them grain and hay, and ride them," Bunge said "I feed it before school, and after school I clean the stalls."

"It's my horse, so I like to do the chores. If I didn't do them, I'd feel guilty, but I th~nk my mom would do them for me," said Bunge.

Junior Matt Dorsey said he did his chores because, if he didn't, he'd "get yelled at".

"I take out the garbage, vaccuum and dust," Dorsey said. ''I'm supposed to do my chores every day after school."

"I think my parents have me do them so I get some kind of an idea of work. I get an allowance of $50 a month for my chores," said Dorsey.

Senior Jeff Carstens says his parents had him do chores to help them out.

"I make my bed, do my laundry and wash the dishes. I get an allowance of $15 a week," said Carstens. "I do my chores whenever I have time, but if I don't do them, nothing much happens "

Senior Heather Horacek cleaned the house and got paid $10 a week. "I do my chores after school when I have time. But, if I don't do them, I get docked."

Horacek said she thought her mother had her do chores to teach her some responsibility. "Also , it helps me out," she said. "It gives me some money, so I'm not broke!"

School causes stress for students

Stress. Everybody has felt it at some time, some more often than others.

The school year was often associated with large amounts of stress, and this past year was no exception. For sophomores , there were increased graduation requirements , a different atmosphere than in their junior highs, and increased responsibilities.

Seniors like Mark Olson said they worried about graduation in the spring. Olson, like many seniors, worked, and that cut down on the time needed to live up to the school's expectations.

Olson said the most stressful class for him was Algebra, which was a common response that others gave

Juniors and seniors also worried about college applications and where they would be in the next few years. Competition on tests such as the SAT and ACTwas a major source of anxiety, especially for those who got nervous taking even minor quizzes at school.

Grade competition was tough. But, for most people, stress came from a co·mbination of several factors.

Sophomore Tom Meyer said that stress was " an accumulation of problems that you can't handle." ·

Olson described it as "being worried about how you're going to do, or if you will be successful."

Whatever stress was, the common opinion of those asked was that we certainly had enough this year.

High school brings expectations, fears

Many people, when they entered high school, had many first-year expectations. Some gotfulfilled and some did not.

In response to the question, "Were your first year expectations fulfilled?" senior Bill Dennis replied, ''Yeah, pretty much," and he went on to say, "Nobody beat me up."

Juniors Shannon Moncure and Wesley Crabb were posed with this question. Moncure's response was, ''Yeah, I guess."

Crabb's response was a simple "yes", but went on to state that "I didn't have any problems with the people here "

Sophomores were typically thought of as the ones with the big expectations, so two sophomores, Kanise Rupert and Hal le Beverage, were asked.

Rupert said, "I expected to make a lot more friends and to have a lot more challenges put in front of me."

Beverage simply said, "Better than I expected."

Many newcomers to high school had their expectations. As stated before, some were fulfilled and some were not.

Begging for rides gets .old

Can I have a ride? That was a typical question you may have heard coming out of a sophomore's mouth. Many sophomores were burdened by the condition of not being able to drive.

"It's not convenient," said sophomore Halle Beverage. • "My parents have to take me everywhere."

" My parents are beginning to think they're a taxi service, " said sophomore Darci Davis.

Sophomore Julie McIntyre said " not being able to drive has its many disadvantages, like not being able to go where you want to, when you want to."

"Having a boyfriend that can drive is very profitable," she added.

Many sophomores relied on friends for their transportation. "Being without a license is a pain because you can't go anywhere without your parents or a friend giving you a ride," said sophomore Laura Hanway.

Sophomores that asked for rides could also be annoying "When you ask people for a ride they look at you liketheydon'twanttogiveyou one," said sophomore Carla Schlautman.

Sophomores that turned 16 before summer · were typically swarmed by all their friends asking for a ride to lunch "I like to take people out to lunch," said sophomore Laura Vrtiska, "but it gets old day after day."

It may have gotten old to the driver, but to many of those sophomores without licenses or cars, begging was a way of life.

Music tastes vary among students

Is it possible to live in a ''Yellow Submarine", drive a "Little Red Corvette", reign as the "King of Pain", and do the 'Wang Chung" a II in 20 minutes?

For those who had followed the music trends, it was as easy as putting in a tape and letting the music begin.

According to Rob Conway, employee at Pickles record shop, and Kevin Heidtbrink, employee at Dirt Cheap record shop, the most popular music to highschool students was rock-and-roll, pop, and soul.

A few of the popular artists were Boston, Run DMC, Bruce Springsteen, Billy Joel, and Bon Jovi, Conway said. Then there were the "golden oldies" which were the everpopular Monkees and the Beatles.

But what type of music did students at Southeast prefer? Sophomore Lee Kiethel said, "Music that's fun." She said she prefered this type of music because "it doesn't drag."

"It's just kind of noise in a way," said senior Jeff Classen, describing the kind of music he listened to.

There were many trends in the world of music. Although, Conway and Heidtbribk shared the idea that music has pretty much stayed the same and "it just goes through phases," as Heidtbrink said.

Classen had his views on the latest music trends.

" 'Top 40' music is now the most popular," he said, adding that "the teeny-bop sound is gross ."

Junior Lori Goin said, "Remakes are the latest trend in music."

Nobody likes curfews but parents

Curfews. It seemed everyone complained about them, but did everyone have them?

What were some curfew times for sophomores? Janelle Cox and Alex Hunter both had no curfew because their parents trusted them to be home at a reasonable time.

Laura Porter had a curfew time of 2 a.m., unless it was a special occasion, in which case it was 3 a.m .

"My watch stoppec;i," or, "He drove too slowly," were typical excuses that Porter used when she was late. Since Cox had no curfew, she couldn't be late.

Cox said, "My parents make me wake them up when I get home."

Porter said that parents set curfews "because they don't trust us and they always think you are causing trouble."

Carol Swanson, mother of sophomore Kari Swanson, said that she did not set curfews. "Each event calls for its own time," she said, "so you should be home at a reasonable time after the event."

What was good about curfews? Porter said curfews "make you responsible for your actions."

Looking good takes up morning time

Make-up, nice clothes, and cologne were all a part of the sophomores' daily preparations for school. Sophomore Silke Peterson said she thinks looking good is important

"I like to look good mainly so I can be confident about myself and my appearance," she said.

Peterson said she takes 45 minutes to get dressed and to do her make-up and hair before going to school.

Another sophomore, Kalli Kanter, said she takes an hour to take a shower and to do her make-up and hair. "It's not very importantto me to look good because there is nobody to impress," Kanter said.

What about the guys? It only takes sophomore

Charlie Calhoun a half hour to get ready. "It's important to look good so you don't look like a slob," he said

Another sophomore, Pat Piper, said, "It's important to look good so you can give off a good image."

Teachers' rooms reflect personalities

Much could be discovered aboutteachers' personalities and teaching styles simply by entering their rooms.

The room of Kerstin VanDervoort , an English teacher, was a good example. The wa Ils of the room were covered with words. VanDervoort described her room as "an antidote to the temptation to despair and to feel nervous about evil."

Posters of where Patrick Hunter-Pirtle has been were a personal touch in his English room.

After he returned from a year-long tour of Europe with his wife, he collected the posters which hung in his room.

Hunter-Pirtle's room was also organized. "Everything's in a place," he said, adding that he "sometimes worries that it might seem uncreative."

In a way, it reflected his teaching style which he described as "structured and organized."

Another room filled with personality was Gerald Saunders' Biology room. Among the things kept in his room were skeletons, aquariums, and bottled body parts of animals.

During first semester, his room resembled a zoo as much as anything else because of students' "Alive and Satisfied" projects, in which students brought in living things to study.

Saunders said his room was "spontaneous and not highly structured."

''You get two responses (from people coming into the room)," Saunders said. "Some people can't see past the mess, and some people see the creative mayhem. Make out of it what you will."

Students utilize variety of excuses

Excuses were used for a variety of school-related occasions, ranging from why one was late to class to why one needed to be let out of class early, and especially why last night's homework wasn't finished, or even started.

Teacher's policies on excuses varied. Jane Williams, English and Resource teacher, did not accept them, as a general rule.

But, she said that despite her policy some students did try to use them.

Out of those who did, she said, "You can usually tell when someone is having a problem and has earnestly tried to do (the assignment) and when someone is trying to get out of it."

Social studies teacher Mike Troester explained that, in his class, whether or not he accepted excuses depended a lot on the student.

"After you get to know a student," he said, "you find out what they're like."

Juniors and seniors tended to use more excuses than sophomores, said Troester. Sophomores were usually initially conscientous, while juniors and seniors had a lot more extra-curricular actMties and responsibilities. He added that time conflicts seemed to be the biggest problem of the juniors and seniors.

Some of the typica I excuses given were: "I left the assignment on my desk at home," and "I didn't have the time because of work/personal problems/other homework/etc," according to Troester.

Some people even tried the old cliche, "The dog ate it."

By common consent, one o east's major strengths was in academics. In almost every competition, or by almost any standard, Southeast placed at or near the top of the state and nation educationally. In addition to typically high test scores and many teaching awards, 19a6-87 also found Southeast with some surprising and impressive honors, including the most National Merit Semi-Finalists in Nebraska.

One of the primary reasons for this success was the faculty. "There are a lot of excellent teachers here who can make dull subject matter interesting," said senior Jon Bruning.

Knowledge, accessibility, and friendliness - these were some common characteristics of the good teachers. Beyond these general traits, however, some students found different teachers' teaching styles to be especially wellsuited to their learning styles.

Bruning had praise for English teacher Kerstin Van Dervoort. "She is a wonderful writing teacher. She is a very

a ' in her teaching. Sometimes that means you aren't sure what you are supposed to be doing, but that can also be exciting. My writing skills improved in her class, and I had fun, too," Bruning said.

Junior Lisa Hansen said, "One of my favorite classes I've ever had is Spanish 9-10 with Mrs Prendes." The class, which combined seniors and accelerated juniors, was conducive to learning, Hansen said. "There are virtually no tests or quizzes. We have to speak in Spanish the whole time and do other activities which help us learn the language. It ' s a real challenge, but exciting."

Biology teacher Tim Golden was one of sophomore Steve Di Salvo's favorite teachers. "I like biology mostly because of the way Mr. Golden teaches it. He jokes around and explains things thoroughly. His style makes it fun and interesting," he said.

While everyone enjoyed a fun class, Hansen said some classes inherently

Prendes' class is great for learning [but] in some classes, more structure i: important. For instance, in math an c science it helps if the teacher is more repetitive, so you can see if you under • stand what you ~re doing. Some thing i may be more difficult, and it hel pt sometimes if the class is structured," sh t said.

Bruning advocated a radical idea t t remedy a certain aspect of educatio n "I'm a freewheelin' kind of guy, and realize it may not be too practical, but think grades should be abolished. It ' : silly how everyone works for a gooc grade instead of learning the subjec;: matter," he said

In the midst of all of the academi c pressure, and the pleasant and un • pleasant surprises that came with it, , sense of perspective was important, Bruning said. "I work hard, but whe n l'rr, not in class, I enjoy myself "

The way it is and was Events both current and past are taught

In order to graduate, students needed five credit hours from each of the three social studies categories: Global Learning, Modern U.S., and Citizenship Issues.

The classes that fell under those categories were: World Studies ( two semesters), Global Perspectives ( one semester), Modern U.S. History ( one semester) and Citizenship Issues ( one semester). "Cit. Issues is required, so you have to take it," said senior Melissa Borman. "I learned a lot about how the government and elections are run. I think the class is very informative."

"I think it will help me to understand politics in the future. You need to know what's going on in the world. Cit. Issues helped a lot, especially when we talked about current events."

"I took World Studies because it was a two semester class and it was required," said senior Kari Drda. "I think the class made history as exciting as it could be."

"We learned a lot about European history and current events," said Drda. ·

"I took Global Perspectives because it was only a semester class and I don't like social studies," said senior Teresa Schlake.

''When we talked about current events and they took place in little countries, I had some idea of where they were."

"I liked the class because it dealt a lot with maps. I learned where the little countries were and the different time zones," said Schlake.

Mike Troester's Economics classes played the Stock Market Game. The game was computer operated, and the students picked their stocks and watched their progress. Then, they sent the results to the University of Nebraska, as other schools did. The results were compared, and a winner was chosen.

"It helps students understand the stock market, which can be confusing to some. It may have spawned some interest in stocks and bonds and could help students invest their money later in life."

Along with games, social studies teachers used newspapers and guest speakers as teaching aids. Field trips were also taken; Tom Douglas' Psychology classes visited Nebraska Wesleyan.

Students visited the Dream/Sleep laboratory to learn about dreams, intetpretations, and what happens to your body while you are asleep.

Mike Ware, a social studies teacher , used some creative techniques. In Ware ' s Citizenship Issues classes , students participated in a mock trial The subjects and outcomes varied from year to year

Students played the roles of defending and prosecuting attorneys , jury members , the bailiff, and the court reporter.

" I think it helps the students, because it helps them think on their feet and generate questions quickly, " said Ware. "They also have to organize their thoughts. "

Stu Kerns' English 10 class acted out this scene from Julius Caesar. Kerns said he took this death scene of Julius Caesar and assigned some of his students to become various characters in the play.

The group spent a few days practicing and then performed it for the rest of the class. They used a dagger for the main prop in their skit, and Kerns said he hoped to add costumes next year.

Kerns used this activity as a way to help students to gain a better understanding of Shakespeare and the theater, along with adding a little variety to his class.

Getting the point across

Effective communication builds confidence

Communication is one of the most important important aspects of our society Several classes offered students the chance to improve their communication skills, such as listening, speaking, and writing, as well as bring them more in touch with their school and community.

"75 to 80 percent of all of a person's waking time is spent in acts where you are speaking and listening," said speech teacher Louise Alfrey. "Obviously, we should be training people how to be effective listeners and speakers."

One class which taught students how to speak effectively and think on their feet was Debate. The class itself was primarily geared towards preparing for debate tournaments in which the students competed. Students learned how to speak effectively, develop arguments, and research topics.

Speech and Drama also improved speaking skills. By giving different types of speeches, students in Speech I learned how to speak in front of a large group of people and also how to communicate with one, a few, or many people. Radio broadcasting was a new unit introduced to help voice training. Students wrote up newscasts and radio dramas and then broadcast

them as if they were on the radio.

Acting skills were refined in Drama through various scenework and characterization studies and the use of voice and movement.

"Any drama class should make you more aware of yourself and confident as a person because you perform in front of an audience," said teacher Carol Svoboda.

Making students aware of community issues, policy changes, and school events was the job of the Clarion newspaper, which came out every two to three weeks.

The addition of two MacIntosh computers and a . laser printer made meeting tight deadlines easier for both Clarion and Shield. The new computers enabled the staffs to set copy right on the computer, rather than having it done at PSAB.

Meeting deadlines turned Shield staffers into human computers, producing themes, stories, pages, and pictures. However, the effort was worth it because as editor Ed Pallesen said, "The neat thing about yearbook is people will keep it all their lives, and when they look through it, it will help them remember their high school days."

Near dead from the endles.s hours she spends editing copy, senior Carrie Richardson sets up Microsoft Word on a Macintosn Plus so senior Amy Gaines can type her club story.

WAR OF THE WORDS

Journalism 1 Clarion

"Extra! Extra! Read all about it!" In this case, extra stood for the additional activity of producing a school paper in the Journalism I class. The JI Clarion, which was published once a semester, gave the JI classes a chance to experience what it was like to work on a newspaper, meet deadlines, and work with a large group of people. It also helped the students decide whether they wanted to apply for a position on the Clarion or Shield In order to work on the yearbook or newspaper, a student was required to take Journalism I and then apply for a position on one of the two publications.

All the copy, layout, and the selling of advertising space was done by the JI students. "It gives you a feeling of what it is like to publish something," said junior Kari Semmen, "and it's nice to have people read what you have produced." Semmen was the content editor for the JI paper the first semester

Science helps students in everyday living

Whether students took them simply to fill a requirement or to use them for a building block for future careers , science classes were an important staple to students' educations.

Due to a new UNL policy which required high school students to have two years of science , chemistry cl~s doubled in size , said chemistry teacher Joe Dappen. Along with increased enrollment , two new classes were added to the science department , Consumer Chemistry and Biology 2-A, both of which had high enrollment.

Consumer Chemistry, a year-long class , was intended for students who wouldn ' t go on to take college chemistry, but still wanted to take a chemistry class. It involved learning about chemical processes and using practical chemistry for around a kitchen or household.

Biology 2-A was a new class that started second semester "It's intended for people who are especially interested in biology, " said Dappen. The same topics were covered as in regular biology, only more in depth.

The purpose of regular biology, according to

teacher Gerry Saunders , was " to help students become aware of the intricasies and diversities of life. " First semester dealt with general topics such as genetics and cells. Second semester broadened into the diversity of life.

" I try to teach an enthusiasm for sciences in general ," said chemistry and physics teacher Jon Pederson. " I hope that chemistry can be fun at times ." Pederson said that to make chemistry more fun and easier to understand , he placed more emphasis on demonstrations and class participations.

Physics was often taken if a person had a deep interest in a career in science or medicine "I took physics because it pertains to what I'm going to go into in college , which is pre-med ," said senior Melissa Borman

The class dealt with mechanics , light , sound , heat , and electricity

" Physics broadens your understanding of the world around you by applying to everyday life ," said Pederson.

Madagascar hissing cockroaches and hermit crabs probably weren't the first choices if one wanted to raise a living organism. However, these creatures, along with salamanders, ants, fish, night crawlers, and good old houseplants thrived in several biology classes thanks to "tender loving care" dished out by biology students.

The reason for raising these small-scale zoos was called "Alive and Satisfied". Taught by teachers Gerry Saunders and Tim Golden, Alive and Satisfied was a semester unit within Biology 1.

The project was the focal point for many general topics covered first semester. Observations were made of the organisms' growth, behavior, and actions and were then applied to the different biology units, such as general self-structure and chemistrv · Ogl b

Not just playing around

Groups and individuals receive honors

''We're aiming to make good music, not to win contests," said director Bob Krueger. Despite this, many awards and honors were earned by groups as well as individuals in the instrumental music program.

Under Krueger's leadership, the marching band received superior ratings at both the Harvest of Harmony and the Nebraska State Bandmasters Association marching contests. They also performed in the second annual Star-City Parade, which was held in downtown Lincoln in December.

The symphonic band, a second-semester concert band that was more select than the marching band, had previously received a superior rating at the 1986 Worlds of Fun Festival of Bands, and planned to go again in 1987.

In addition, the 75-piece symphonic band "received a superior rating, the sight-reading trophy, and the sweepstakes trophy as best band at the 1986 Lincoln All-City contest," said Krueger, "a sweep of all the awards."

Symphonic Band was planning to perform again at

the All-City contest. Even before second semester began, Krueger was having the band sight-read several pieces to find ones with potential.

Preparations were also being made to perform at the 1987 NSBA convention - Southeast was one of two high schools in the state invited.

Symphonic Band was also invited to perform at the International Youth and Music Festival in Vienna, Austria in the summer of 1987, but they didn't have the funds to go.

Also honored were several Symphonic Band and Orchestra members. Just of few of these individuals included: junior Chris Ellenwood, who was first chair clarinet in All-State Orchestra; senior Scott Rademacher, who played his tenor sax in both the McDonald's All-American Band and Jazz Band; senior Kayl Soukup, who was the state Music Teachers' National Association music contest winner in the strings division; and senior Dana Meinke, who was principal bassoon of World Youth Symphony and winner of Lincoln Youth Symphony's concerto competition.

Marching Band Camp

Practicing intensely during the last few weeks of summer was not only done by several athletic teams, but also by Marching Band.

Band members met two weeks before school started, working eight hours a day the first week, three hours a day the second.

Director Bob Krueger said the purpose of Band Camp was "basically to try to learn all the fundamentals [of marching], get the chops back in shape after the summer, learn all the contest music, and begin to learn the choreography."

To get a head start, both the flag corps, which was new this year, and the drumline met an additional week before the rest of the band met.

"Band Camp is a lot more fun than people think it ould be," said junior Mitch Parker, drum major, "but I'm glad it doesn't last any longer than it does."

VOCAL MUSIC Studying Singing

Vocal groups have different music styles

There were seven vocal music groups at Southeast. Five of the groups were selective When students auditioned for a vocal music group, they sight-read, were tested on note memory, and did scales. Also, the teacher played a chord for them, and they had to pick out the notes. Sometimes students needed a prepared piece to sing.

Ars Nova Coro consisted of 18 boys and girls who were juniors and seniors. Ars Nova Coro sang jazz and swing. "We do a few variations of where we stand and a few hand movements," said junior Lisa Hansen.

Countesses and Noblemen were made up of 14 juniors and seniors. "We sing jazz, swing, pop and ballads. We also use a lot of choreography," said senior Brent Kuenning.

"I decided to try out for Countesses and Noblemen because I heard it was the best group. However, the group is very hard to get into," Kuenning said. By February, Countesses and Noblemen had been to one contest, which they won. It was the Peru State Swing Choir Contest.

Court Choir consisted of 78 juniors and seniors. "I wanted to be in Court Choir because it looked like a

fun group to be in," said junior Mindy Berry.

Court Choir sang madrigal, spiritual, and jazz music. "We sang at the Capitol with Dawes Elementary School for Martin Luther King's birthday," said Berry.

Mixed Chorus had 35 people in it. They sang a wide variety of music, including foreign pieces. "I took Mixed Chorus because it was the only singing group besides Countesses and Noblemen that would fit in my schedule ," said junior Mike Works.

Queen ' s Court was an all-girls singing group of 16 seniors and juniors. 'We sang madrigal, pop, and jazz ," said junior Lisa Schwendiman

Knight Sounds was another select vocal group. They sang pop, jazz, and showtunes Knight Sounds was made up of 18 sophomore boys and girls. When they performed, they added choreography to their singing "I tried out for Knight Sounds and I made it," said sophomoreJaneenJorgensen. "I like music and I think Knight Sounds is fun."

Knightengales consisted of 20 sophomore girls. They sang show tunes and pop music They also used choreography.

Putting the finishing touches on their dance moves, junior Matt Morrison takes junior Alisa Miller for a clip.

Many students at Southeast didn't know it, but singing lessons were offered to anyone who was interested. The lessons were private and the only requirement was that the person must have been committed to working. Tim Sharer, vocal music instuctor, said , "The individual is contracted to work through the process of becoming a better singer."

Sharer said he felt they could help a person by bettering their musical techniques and developing an understanding of musical expression. The lessons also helped strengthen ear training because "music is more than just opening your mouth with the right sound. You have to hear the sound the right way," Sharer said.

Voice lessons also gave students self-confidence. ''You need self-confidence to perform," Sharer said. Sharer said, ''You shouldn't be afraid to sing, because I can help you get better. If you think you would like to sing, get involved!"

New college requirements raise enrollment

"We are doing a lot more activities where students have to talk to each other ," said Kathie Uhrmacher, head of the foreign language department.

Uhrmacher said that the foreign language department spent more time emphasizing the importance of speaking the language , rather than just writing it or listening to it .

Junior Audrey Hansen took German. Hansen said that their class did a lot of oral activities. One time, they set up simulated shops and were each given a specific amount of money Then , they had to go to the different shops and ask for things in German.

Hansen added that they emphasized the grammar aspect of the German language as well.

"It's like taking a grammar class, but it's in German," said Hansen.

The foreign language department also experienced a large increase in its enrollment

"A lot more kids are starting to take foreign language ," said Pat Brown , Spanish teacher.

Brown said the reason for this was because of the change in college requirements: Most colleges wanted students to have four years of a foreign language, and it was much " easier and cheaper" on a high school level , said Brown

Brown said she was glad there was an increased enrollment , but she wanted students to take the classes because they "enjoy and appreciate the language" and not just to fulfill college requirements.

Besides filling some college requirements , foreign language classes helped students in other schoolrelated areas.

Brown stated that it was important to her that ner students "see the language as a useful tool" in developing thinking skills for all classes.

Uhrmacher said that taking a foreign language class helped students do better in memorization , with their study skills, and in English courses.

Along with improving these skills in her students , Uhrmacher said she planned to bring in the art, music and architect!Jre of the countries being studied.

Uhrmacher said that it was important to learn a foreign language , but it was just as important to be exposed to the cultural contributions the foreign countries have made to the world.

A new addition to the foreign language department was AFS teacher Cecilia Cortes , from Monroy, Chile. She assisted Olga Prendes during second semestt>r

New language labs

An "approach towards oral proficiency'' was how Kathie Uhrmacher described the new addition to the foreign language department.

Three lab systems were installed. One was given to each respective language class ( German, French, and Spanish) , but the language classrooms without systems could set up times to use one whenever it was necessary.

Uhrmacher said that this new addition helped enforce the concept of making students capable of communicating in a foreign language.

She added that, in past years, learning to read and write a foreign language were stressed. She planned to start moving away from that, and teach students to speak more.

The labs lowered from the ceiling, providing each student with a headset for listening. Recordings of native speakers, music, and news were some of the materials used.

New algebra course gives students option

"Whether people realize it or not, math is something they will use for the rest of their lives, whether it's just to balance their checkbooks or something else," said geometry teacher Diane Davis. The students "may as well take advantage of the opportunity to learn it now."

Southeast offered opportunities to learn math at a variety of levels, from basic to advanced classes.

Algebra 1-2 was an introduction to algeb_ra , which included working with variables, solving simple equations and inequalities , and graphing and solving linear equations with more than one variable.

The next level after Algebra 1-2 was Geometry 1-2. Davis described Geometry as a class designed to "teach people to use a logical thought process." One of Davis ' goals in teaching the class was to get people to be able to "think through a problem logically and to be able to apply it to everyday life. "

After Geometry was Algebra 3-4. This class picked up where Algebra 1-2 left off. It went into more depth and discussed algebraic concepts. ·

A new class offered was Algebra 3-4T. This class, explained counselor Art Hillman, was designed for students who had considerable difficulty in math. It

also was a way for college-bound students who didn't plan to take Pre-calculus to earn enough math credits.

The class was, as Hillman described it, "the brainchild of George Eisele. " He thought up the class, planned it, and taught it. The class was over a year in the works.

Pre-calculus was the next step after Algebra 3-4. Pre-calculus teacher Harold Baker capsulized the class as "an integrated course of trigonometry and analytical geometry. "

For the students who wanted to continue their educations in the mathematics field , Advanced Placement Calculus was offered. It was the most advanced math class offered ~net was taught at a college level.

Another new addition to the math department was teacher Shiela Kellenbarger Kellenbarger, who transferred from Pound Junior High, taught Algebra 1-2 She said that at the high school level "some of the subject matter is more fun to teach. The level is a little bit higher and the kids are a bit more sophisticated .! think it was really enjoyable to come over and see some of my former students and see them grow up."

Students in Dan Dougherty's seventh period class follow along with the notes on the board

It has been said that all a math teacher needed was a blackboard and chalk to teach. Whether or not that was true , geometry teacher Diane Davis said the blackboard was very important to a math teacher. "In fact, we just had a longer one put in my room " The other blackboard was not long enough for all of Davis' notes and explanations.

Some teachers, such as algebra teacher Judy Bogle, required student boardwork. Students were required to work through problems on the board at least twice a quarter.

Students reacted differently to math teachers' frequent use of their blackboards. Junior Brad Nilson said that all the boardwork didn't bother him; it helped him see how the problems should be worked.

Home Economics offers more than cooking

The classes offered in the Home Economics department covered such topics as rearing children, human behavior, nutrition, and living independently

"I took Exploring Childhood because I love kids," said senior Sandy Slagle. ''We learned how to care for kids and to treat them equally."

''We go to different nursery and elementary schools and teach the .kids. Sometimes we color with them or fingerpaint," Slagle said Slagle said she felt this class was an important one. "I think this class is important because it can help me later on in life with my own kids."

During second and third period, the Exploring Childhood classes held a nursery school. They also took field trips to different nursery and elementary schools.

The Independent Living classes visited apartments and had guest speakers.

The Human Behavior classes had guest speakers, discussing such family crises as rape and child abuse. They also had a "baby day'' where students brought their younger brothers and sisters to school.

The Relationships classes visited hospital birthing

rooms and invited speakers to class. They also participated in a simulated marriage project, went to grocery stores to price foods , and visited funeral homes.

The Foods 1 and 2 classes prepared food and studied nutrition. Around Thanksgiving and Christmas, they prepared a full holiday dinner

Also , the Home Economics department added a new class , Teenage Pregnancy. This was an independent study class for pregnant girls Bryan Memorial Hospital designed the class , and the school district gave Southeast a grant for it.

Herbster said she tought that Teenage Pregnancy was very important to adolescent girls.

"This class is like a moral support group for the girls," Herbster said. "They can help each other by discussing their problems and sharing new ideas."

The class also helped the girls by providing someone who would listen to them.

"I know the girls have made good friends from this class," Herbster added. "I hope they can all stay friends. It helps them later on after their baby is born."

Nolo contendre, ipso facto, corpus delecti, habeas corpus. To many students, these words were incomprehensible. But, to lawyers, witnesses, judges, and juries, each of these I.atin roots held significant meaning in a court of law.

Ann Woita's two Business Law classes got a taste of the law world when they held a mock trial concerning a man's possession of drugs. The Business Law students acted as attorneys and witnesses, and an actual attorney presided as judge.

The trial took about two to two and a half weeks to prepare, and it was videotaped during the actual presentation. Both classes reached a verdict of guilty.

"A trial is like a sporting event. You have an offense and a defense, and you want to come out the winning side," said Woita.

--ART--------------------, Creativity for a grade

Art department one of Nebraska's best

"Southeast has the best [art department] in the city and probably in the state," said jewelry instructor Gerald Christiansen. "We have the biggest department, and we get a lot of student support. We also have a larger number of classes, and the offerings are more advanced."

No new classes were added to the department. As in the previous year, sixteen different art classes were offered.

Design 1-2 was a class in which students studied art fundamentals in painting and drawing. Later, students studied fundamentals in pottery, sculpture, jewelry, and other related areas.

Two pottery courses were offered, Pottery 1-2 and Pottery 3-4. In Pottery 1-2, basic hand-building and glazing techniques were taught. Students also worked on improving their skills using a potter's wheel, and they learned about 3-D design. Pottery 3-4 was a continuation of Pottery 1-2.

If someone wanted to learn about fabrics and what could be done with them, he or she could have taken a fibers class. Fibers 1-2 explored stitchery and hand-weaving. One could also have learned about dyeing and batik techniques.

Fibers 3-4 was a continuation of Fibers 1-2, which went into more depth and eventually taught weaving on a loom for any interested students.

Two classes on jewelry were offered. Jewelry 1-2 taught the basics, and Jewelry 3-4 went into more depth about the processes used.

Sculpture 1-2 was a way for a student to learn about how to make molds molds and how to carve in a variety of media. Advanced Sculpture 3-4 emphasized individual skills and design development.

Drawing techniques and materials were explained in Drawing 1-2 and were further explored in Drawing 3-4.

Painting 1-2 explored acrylic, watercolor, and tempera paints. For students who wanted to study another year, Painting 3-4 was available.

For students interested in graphic design and related areas, there was Commercial Art 1-2.

And, for those interested in cameras and picturetaking, Beginning Photography and Advanced Photography were available. Topics ranged from operating a camera and developing film to more sophisticated concepts and applications.

PICI'URE PERFECT

One of the ways jewelry students could have made a piece of jewelry was to use the "lost wax" method. A student would first make a wax model of the desired piece of jewelry. Then, he would add a tube of wax to this mold by attaching one end of it to the wax model and the other end to a pour-cup ( a funnel-like instrument).

This contraption would then be placed in a solution similar to plaster It would then be put in a burn-out kiln and heated to over 1000 degrees At this temperature, the wax would melt and leave a mold of the jewelry. Through the pour-cup, the metal of which the jewelry was to be made would be poured into the mold.

Next, the mold would be put in a vacuum-cast machine which would "suck the air out and suck the metal into it," said jewelry instructor Chuck Schanou. , -Christine

Industrial Arts, Driver's Ed. make changes

"Change" was the word used to describe the Industrial Arts and Driver' s Education departments.

The Industrial Arts department added a new class to its curriculm. It was the cabinet-making class, and teacher Jim Kinney said it was "a really good success." The main project of the class was making ice boxes, which they sold to the public

There were more girls interested in industrial arts, and Kinney said he thought the reason was that they wanted to "feel more self-sufficient."

Roxy Janikowski, a senior who took Basic Car Care, said that there were only four boys in her class. She reasoned that there were more girls than boys "because guys know more about basic car care and thay don't need the basics."

Janikowski said she took the class because she wanted "to learn about cars."

This year, Driver's Education "went to individual classes instead of large groups," said teacher Gail Baum. He said the change was made so that the students could get more credit hours.

Driver's Education used to be a double-period

class; there was one period for the classroom portion and another period for the driving and simulator part of the class. With the new system, the student could get both classroom and driving/ simulator all in one period. That way, the student could take another class and could earn more credit honr'-

There were many reasons students took Driver's Education. Sophomore Chris Thompson said he took it so he could get lower insurance rates.

The state cut down the lab section of the class, lowered the number of student hours in the class, and cut the driving time in half, Baum said. For driving, instead of having eight times behing the wheel, the student only got four. Baum said he was disappointed with this because "students could use more practice ."

Despite all the cuts in funding for the class, Baum said, ''We did a better job with the cut-down hours then we thouclit we would."

Even with half the driving time of other years, Thompson said he would remember one important thing about driving. "I'll remember how to stop."

Lincoln High exchange

The Industrial Arts department offered students a wider variety of classes by using a ''vocational delivery system".

The system was a chance for students to be bussed to Lincoln High for classes that the Southeast Industrial Arts department did not offer.

Southeast students were given access to classes such as Advanced Electronics, Advanced Machine Drafting, and Residential Construction. Lincoln High students could come to Southeast for the new, doubleperiod cabinet making class.

Jim Kinney, who taught the cabinet-making class, said the only problem with the vocational delivery system was with the bussing, because it was not convenient for the students. "[They] don't like to leave at 7:30 [to go to Lincoln High].''

Keeping in ship-shape

Students work to be healthy inside and out

Whether you preferred Body Toning, Weight Training, Triathletics, Water Games or Team Sports, you could have taken these courses, and more, in the wonderful world of physical education at Southeast.

Although only two quarters of physical education taken in two separate years were required, "most of the students take many more [gym classes] than they have to .it's a stress releaser and it's a social outlet," said Mimi Kuebler, gym teacher.

An additional reason to take extra gym classes may have been the active instruction. "All of our instructors are energetic, and they participate in the activities instead of just throwing a ball in and telling students what to do," Kuebler said.

She added that, in order to be enthusiastic, she had to be "kind of corny sometimes."

Kuebler also said that since the track in the John Prasch Activity Center was available, the body toning classes used it once a week to enhance cardiovascular endurance The pool was also used more often; the toning classes used it several times during the quarter.

"I'd like to have the pool be used every period if we could," said JR Connell, physical education instructor.

This year was unusual, Kuebler said, because there were more males in Body Toning.

Mark Rippe, a senior in Body Toning, said he liked being in the class because "it's different and a lot of fun. You are constantly moving for 40 minutes, which builds endurance."

Unlike Heather Loske, sophomore in Weight Training who said, "It's embarrassing to be [one out of two girls] in weightlifting [because] everyone makes fun of you," Rippe said it did not really bother him that there were many more girls in his class.

The options for students wanting to participate in intramural sports included basketball, bowling and coed softball. Kuebler said the intramural program for girls died down because they were more involved in athletics.

Gym classes were quarter classes for 2.5 credits. Along the same line, students who hadn't passed the Health Waiver Examination were required to take one quarter of health for 2.5 credits. During the quarter, students learned how to perform CPR, and studied units about nutrition and first-aid.

"And one, and two all right, keep it moving!"

This was the atmosphere of Mimi Kuebler's body toning classes when her students were presenting their routines.

One of Kuebler's teaching techniques was to have the students put a tape together and organize a lesson which was presented in class. Kuebler said one of the reasons she did that was so the students had more empathy for the instructor, and so they would remember correct exercise routines.

"Before presenting in front of the class, I was pretty nervous," sophomore Jenny Ortiz said.

"Afterwards, I was relieved," she said, "but ifl had to do it again, it would be no problem."

' 'We view as the most important thing serving our students. It ' s what we ' re here for ," said counselor Janet Millnitz

The administration served and counseled students in many ways through various programs.

Counselors worked with students the most as compared to other administration positions . Don Darnell , Assistant Principal of Student Services, described a counselor as " someone who wore many, many hats ."

Some of these hats were that of friend , suggester of alternatives , post-high school planner , and academic assister , said Millnitz.

But counselors weren't just there for the kids. Millnitz said she recalled occasions that she spoke to the parents and to teachers who had concerns regarding a student

"

Mrs. Millnitz is a great counselor ," said senior Brent Kuenning . " In the last three years , she 's inspired me She helped me pick quality college-prep classes. "

The assistant principals played major roles in the services offered to students

students assistance

Darnell was one such assistant principal. His job was to supervise the counseling and guidance programs. He was responsible for duties such as keeping student records , publishing the "Knightlife Banner", and setting up the schedule for visits from college representatives.

Assistant Principal of Instruction , Rex Mercer , did not deal with students directly very often , but he worked behind the scenes. He did such things as scheduling classes , administering department budgets , and organizing the distribution of student schedules. He also ordered instructional supplies , materials , and equipment.

Vice Principal Larry Eaton handled all the discipline of students , the maintenance and upkeep of the building , and the use of the building through the master calendar. He said that his hope was to motivate students in a positive way.

" I want people to say, ' Mr Eaton 's a fair man', " he said.

Principal Wesley Lauterbach was the ringleader of all this activity. He was responsible for the overall operations of the school.

program

One of the counseling programs offered to students was the School/Community Intervention Program ( SCIP)

SCIP coordinator John Larsen described SCIP as a "referral program to identify students that might have some type of drug or alcohol problem."

Larsen said that occasionally a student would come to see him and describe the problem of a "friend" when the problem was actually that of the student himself.

When comparing the entire student body to the number of students in SCIP, the percentage was small, but, Larsen said, "ifyou can help one .it's worthwhile."

"A lot of students at Southeast think the purpose of the SCIP program is to catch people," Larsen added, "but the purpose is to help people. ·

In terms of sheer numbers of people involved, club activit.es o f ' ene kind or another probably ranked as the biggest extracurricular commitment at Southeast. New groups of people, changing organizations, and new ideas all contributed to the exciting and often surprising atmosphere surrounding club activities.

Senior Stephanie Feistner, president of French Club, said clubs involved a great deal of time, especially if one was very active.

"I'm also in Pep Club and Speech / Debate, so there is always something going on that you can attend, if you have the time , " she said

Junior Brenda Jirovsky, who belonged to Shirettes, Ski Club, French Club, and Court Choir, echoed Feistner's sentiments

"Before every performance we have to go to school early for Shirettes. Plus, we have to actually do the performance," she said. "Sometimes people don't re-

alize it, but th involved." shes Student Cou member Charlie said, "It's true th you have to be cogniz demands and balance the commitments, like scho6 you're behind before you

you. It can be a very insidious process." -pursuant to Ar , of the StuCo constitution."

"Nevertheless," he said, "it's a blast. I feel like we get things accomplished and have fun at the same time."

"It's very important to be involved in some way," Feistner said. "Clubs are an excellent way to learn something about an area, meet new people, be creative, and eventually help organize other people and events."

To be an officially school-sponsored club, a group must have received Student Council and Administration approval. New groups were added routinely.

Uozen of clubs existed with different aims. Whether it was an academic club, sports club, service club, entertaining club, or something else , in general, the club experience was similar in many ways.

"Every group has objectives, leadership, activities, and members. And, ideally, all clubs have fun in one way or another," Jirovsky said. "If you're not involved, I think you miss out."

This year, involvement and interes t were the rule. Our year was the more ~xciting and fun for it.

Spirit Clubs

Music, dance, cheer precision enhance spirit success

Southeast's spirit and support of its athletes and school was shown throughout the year by a variety of clubs and groups .

Pep Club was one of those spirit groups It consisted of cheerleaders, Shirettes, and any interested sophomores and juniors

Junior Jane Peters, president of Pep Club , performed several behindthe-scenes jobs to get Pep Club organized and spirited.

Peters made presentations at v arious junior highs to get them interested in Pep Club She was also in charge of Homecoming , enforcing Pep Club rules , and representing Pep Club in student elections.

"The purpose of Pep Club is to encourage school spirit, promote good sportsmanship , and serve Southeast at all times ," said junior Mindy Berry, Pep Club vice president.

Along with promoting school spirit , Pep Club members had the opportunity to try out for positions as a Pep Club officers , cheerleaders , or Shirettes.

Peters said that members had to earn a certain number of points to try out. Points were earned by attending sport events and rallies and by participating in Spirit Week. Members also had to decorate for Homecoming and make signs for the sporting events.

"Pep Club officers , cheerleaders , and Shirettes must also earn as many

po ints as the other members of the Pep Club ," said Peters.

Another group that supported the school and its athletes was the cheerleaders.

"The cheerleaders have made up a lot of new cheers, chants, and a new dance in hopes that people will cheer with us or will get into the game," said senior Steph Feistner, varsity captain Spirit events , such as pep rallies, were organized and planned by the cheerleaders. Feistner said they started planning two or three weeks in advance by brainstorming.

"In order to raise money for the pep rallies and their uniforms, the cheerleaders held a Pajama Jam, sold mugs, Homecoming flowers , raffle tickets , and lollipops ," said junior Mary McGreer, JV captain.

The cheerleading squad had a major setback this year. The School Board passed an order that high school cheerleaders could not perform mounts.

"We worked very hard, had fun, and best of all , we were all good friends ," said Feistner

The Shirettes provided entertainment during half time at home football and basketball games

Cherise Grimmit, senior and cocaptain of the Shirettes , said they prepared for their routines during first period every day . (continued on next spread. .)

The Shirettes also attended a summer clinic to get new ideas for the year.

"Rules were set up and enforced in order to get people to practice on time," said senior Heidi Schwendiman, captain of the Shirettes.

The drill team added a new group to a few of its practices during Februarythe Lincoln High Pomalinks.

"We are performing with the Lincoln High drill team for the Lincoln High vs. Southeast games," said Schwendiman.

Another very important group in spreading school spirit was the pep band

"Pep band keeps the spirit and intensity up after the team starts playing," said junior Mitch Parker, drum · major.

"The pep band is made up of Marching Band people from the beginning of the year. There is no set practice time. They just show up and play," said Parker.

Besides playing at .football and basketball games, the pep band performed at pep rallies

A new group was added to the marching band this year - the flag corps.

The flag corps consisted of 14 girls who tried out at the end of last year. They performed along with the marching band during half time at home football games.

"I enjoyed Flag Corps because it gave me a chance to support my school and to get more involved in school activities," said senior Julie Doner.

Another highlight to the marching band performances was feature twirler Deb Javorsky, senior.

"I really enjoyed working with the band because they were an understanding group of people," said Javorsky. "They were really supportive during performances and competitions."

And last, but not least, a group called the · "Buddahs" (sic) graced Southeast's games with their own peculiar chants and cheers.

Senior Jeff Fitchett, founder of the Buddahs, said it all started when he received a package containing a Buddha doll. Fitchett was from then after called "Buddah".

His nickname eventually became his intramural basketball team's name. This Buddah group started attending various athletic events to show their support and school spirt.

"We - meaning senior guys - made up new chants, yelled as loud as possible, wore bandannas, and stood in front of the crowd yelling cheers," said Fitchett.

Fitchett said . he felt as if "Buddahism" had reached its peak and was dying out. He said he would like it if the "Buddah" trend left Southeast when he and his friends graduate.

StuCo/ Officers

Teenage reps bridge gap between students, faculty

Being a Student Council member or a class officer required more work than one might have thought.

StuCo represented the student body and narrowed the communication gap in a variety of ways. In order to get input from students, StuCo members visited different classes to gather opinions, criticism, and ideas.

A popular opinion was that lunch should have been five minutes longer. StuCo members visited with school officials, other student councils, and Superintendent Philip Schoo in their attempts to get a longer lunch, but the proposal was turned down.

StuCo provided many services for school. "Every year, Student Council gives a gift to the school, such as free phones in the office, or the floor mats," said senior Katie Dimon.

Acting as a kind of "ratification board" was another duty of the members. "If a new club wants to get started, they must submit a constitution to Student Council for advice and approval, and then it goes to Mr. Eaton," said sophomore Chelsea Chelsen.

Along the same lines, if a requirement for Honor Roll or National Honor Society was changed, Student Council was informed so they could offer students' opinions about the change.

"It's a good chance to get your ideas across," said Dimon.

Other school services included

holding fundraisers, such as providing a computer dating service in February and holding a dance.

StuCo also had an exchange program with other Lincoln high schools' student council members.

Community involvement included ringing bells for the Salvation Army during the holidays and collecting cans for the Malone Center.

Another representative body was the class officers. Each class had separate duties.

The senior class organized graduation and the senior barbeque. The officers were also responsible for planning future class reunions.

"Most of our activities revolve around the end of the year," said senior Marcus Salters, vice-president.

The junior officers' biggest job was planning Prom. "We want to make Prom a special event of the whole school, because it is our main project," said junior Lisa Endacott.

"We serve as a representative for the sophomore class, and when there is a problem, I'm the voice," said sophomore Ted Wright about the sophomore class officers. "We are planning to go to the junior highs and answer questions about high school and warn the ninth graders to watch out for people like Tim Herman," Wright added jokingly.

Service/fun Clubs 1

Whether for service or fun, clubs offer students variety

Clubs were a fun and popular way of getting to know people who had common interests Some clubs were for fun, and some performed services, but all clubs got students involved in their community or school.

One of the just-for-fun clubs was Ski Club. "The purpose of the club was to allow kids to learn a new athletic experience that was supervised ," said Ski Club sponsor Jim Kinney.

One club at Southeast that helped many people was Red Cross Probably their biggest activity was sponsoring the Blood Drive. The members prepared food and helped operate the donating of blood .

One club that was considered a fun club was SynkraKnights. SynkraKnights was designed to teach advanced synchronized swimming skills to girls who were interested.

A club at Southeast that provided a big service to the democratic party was Young Democrats.

"The purpose of the club is to stimulate interest in politics and get people involved in carrying out that interest," said sponsor Tom Douglas.

One fun club that provided a service to your body was the Triathletics Club "Triathletics provides students the opportunity to train and condition in a non-pressured atmosphere ," said J R. Connell, club sponsor.

S Club was an athletic club for any

boy in an athletic sport.

"The purpose of the club is to promote school spirit and provide a service organization for the athletes." said club sponsor Doug Miller.

S Club sold programs at girls' basketball and volleyball games, helped with the state tournaments at Southeast, and sold t-shirts.

One club at Southeast that was a fun club was Students Staying Straight.

"The purpose of the club is for students to have a place to go on the weekends where they don't have to make the decision to drink of take drugs," said Mick Pierce , club sponsor

The club made anti-drinking and drug posters to hang around school.

Outdoor Encounter was another fun club at Southeast.

"The purpose of Outdoor Encounter is to help kids grow and experience things they might not have the chance to experience," said Gary Saunders. "Our motto is to learn more about nature and ourselves."

Another service club was Student Republicans.

"I think the purpose of the club is to help get students involved in politics. You learn what politics can do for you," said senior DavidSchaaf.

Academic Clubs

Curriculum interests spark organizational involvement

There is no doubt that Southeast offered a variety of clubs which were suited to the students' individual tastes. Of these clubs, some appealed to the academic nature of the student.

Foreign language clubs were among the academic clubs offered. There were three such clubs offered: the French, Spanish, and German Clubs These clubs provided students an opportunity to experience part of the culture they studied through parties such as the Boullaibaisse Party (a French Club party featuring fish soup) and the Fasching Party (a German Club costume party).

Junior Rob McClary said that what he liked most about the French Club was "the opportunity to meet so many people who take French." "Except the sophomores," he jokingly added .

Another facet of the academic clubs was the science and math oriented clubs NOVA was a science club that met to discuss current news and developments in the science world. It also sponsored an annual field trip, this year going to the Fort Calhoun nuclear power plant outside of Omaha. Another such club was the Science Club. It was open to any student interested in the science field and attempted to carry out the aims of the program of the Science· Clubs of America. ·

Math Club did more than discuss ; they competed in contests. Students had the opportunity to compete in

contests which demanded the use of their skills in mathematics. These contests were held throughout Nebraska.

Business clubs were also an extension of in-class interests. DECA (Distributive Education Clubs of America) and FBLA (Future Business Leaders of America) provided an outlet for these interests. FBLA was open to all students and encouraged students to take a greater interest in the business world through speakers and field trips. DECA was more geared toward the serious-minded business student and required a member to be enrolled in at least one business class. Both clubs enabled a member to enter competitions at the local, state, and national level.

Along a more artistic vein, Art Masters and Round Table allowed for the more creative stirrings in students Art Masters "increases the awareness of art in our society ," said junior Chris Ellenwood. Art Masters also held an exhibit at Haymarket Square in the spring.

Round Table was Southeast's creative writing club. It met to read and critque the writing of its members. McClary, secretary of Round Table, said that one of their major accomplishments for the year was the drafting of a club constitution.

ennis, ho s ournaments bring victories

"I think it's great having a lot of juniors , " said junior T J Tipton, "We will be more exper i enced next year."

The varsity team was undefeated and they were city champs

The number one singles player was senior Todd Garcia, the number two singles player was sophomore Frank Hoppe Senior Scott Neumiester and Tipton were the number one doubles team. The number two doubles team were sophomore Jack Cole and junior Chris Wanamaker.

Seeding was important in long tournaments . If a team member got a first or second seeding then he wouldn't have to meet his main competition until the semifinals or finals. This was an advantage because there is less chance of an upset occuring These seedings were based entirely on season records, so schedules played an integral part.

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

Challenge matches are important in team practice

To gain positions on the team, players competed against each other, and the winning person or doubles team moved ahead of the other. That also determined who got to participate in the upcoming meets "Our team is really together this year, we all support everybody. Last year's team has had a few rivalries between members," said senior Pat Morrow.

oing fort e gusto at State

Expectations and spirits were high for the girls' golf team "We wanted to win everything," said junior Kristine Hubka. "We thought we could if we worked hard enough."

The team came close to fulfilling their goal by placing first in every tournament except at a Crete match and at State, where they placed second.

"Even though State was a disappointment, we had a very good year," said Coach Dan Wolf

Sophomore Angie Wi Ison had a personally good year Wilson's score of 77 at State earned her the individual title for the second year in a row.

"At the time I didn ' t think about it. I was more concerned with the team's performance," said Wilson , "but it was an honor to win it two years in a row .

Preparation for the golf season started early. Practices began in mid-August and continued every day for about four hours once school started.

The extensive workouts paid off. The LSE Invite was highlighted as the tournament where everyone did their best. "The overall score of 359 was lowest in the four years I've coached," said Wolf Wilson also shot her best personal score of 75.

An important factor which helped performance was the closeness of the team. "We had a lot of fun together and we all became extremely close," said Hubka.

"If one of us were having a bad day everyone would help them through it," said senior Shelley Donovan. "We were like sisters."

"It doesn't get any better than this" is the cross country team's logo for the year. This statement sums up the feelings about their team's "family", hard work, and good running, Coach Ted Larson said

As usual, hard work and intense training were a big part of the boys' cross country team this year, said Larson, adding that many of the runners trained in the offseason

Nate Nielsen, junior, was one of them. 'Tm twice as good this year as I was last year because ·I trained in the summer," said Nielsen

As well as intense training, the team had solid coaching One unique thing that Coach Larson did for his team, as he did every year, is that he ran every workout with the team.

Assistant Coach John McCracken also ran with the team McCracken was an unpaid volunteer who gave advice and encouraged the team, said Larson.

"I think the coaches are great," Nielsen said, "McCracken really pushed and motivated me . He always • told me how good I could be if I really pushed myself "

To help the two coaches, the team elected two captains, seniors Jay Greathouse and Mike Johnson. ·

Johnson said he showed leadership as a captain by having a positive attitude and by encouraging others.

"State is what I train for," said Nielsen.

Nielsen's training paid off when he took first place individually at State The whole boys' team also won first place at State and had four individuals finish in the top 20: Greathouse, Fleischli, Johnson, and senior Cory Hawk.

"Winning is important, but there's a lot more to sports and athletics than winning," saidTedLarson,crosscountry ..,, · ...., coach.

Our cross country team was noted for its successful seasons and for having the largest team in the state each year, said Larson

This winning reputation, however, was not the only reason why Larson had so many runners each year, he said. Many went out for the team to be a part of a group, others wanted to lose weight, and still others may just have liked the sport itself.

"Running keeps me in good shape and helps me have a better attitude about life," said senior Lori Greathouse, team captain. She also said that running helped her stay more alert in school, which resulted in better grades.

Junior Yvette LaDuke also said she enjoyed running because it helped her stay in shape.

"I enjoy the team spirit and knowing that you're out there working as one unit," said junior Kathy Titsworth.

"I work, as a coach, very hard in trying to make everyone feel welcome and that they are part of the team," said Larson.

This encouragement may have attributed to the girls' success, but the team also had many "newcomers" who did well and gave the team depth, said Larson.

One ofthe "newcomers", Lori Fotch, said she found that the team's unity and encouragement helped her do well in cross country.

The girls' team took second at State, and Jodi Stineman, Micaela O'Meara, and Nancy Devoogd finished in the top twenty.

For the second year in a row, the girls' gymnastics team took a second place finish at State. The second place team consisted of Kelly Hoppe, Sheryl Kunza, Vicki Thimgan, Shannon Toalson, and Tammi Wolfe.

Thimgan took second in all-around and State champion in the floor and vault, and Tammi Wolfe took third in floor exercise

The team got off to a good start by defeating Millard North in their first meet They also did very well against the defending state champions, East, where they lost by only one point, 140-141

In the Millard South Invite the girls team took first place. Some of the teams that participated were Northeast, Lincoln High, Omaha Westside, Papillion and Thomas Jefferson High fromm Council Bluffs, IA.

Getting psyched up for a meet is important in order to do a good job.

Practices are also important "This is the first year we got to use our new foam pit," said Coach Ron Paulsen. "It has most definitely helped our practices It's nice because now I don't have to spot a gymnast. They can work on the bars themselves and not worry about getting hurt "

However the team has had a few injuries. "I messed up my ankle, so I had to be careful," said Simon

But luckily the injuries haven't hurt the team's record. At the Greater Nebraska Conference, Thimigan defeated East's Kristin Gutz for the all around title with a score of 37.35.

"I really like being on gymnastics and going to the meets. It gives you a chance to see other talent and meet new people," said Toalson

Whether on the floor, pommel horse, or the parallel bars, the boys' gymnastics team showed their stuff

The team ended the season with a mixed record "We haven't been hitting tricks as well as we should be," explained junior Dennis Rieke "We haven't really gotten it together."

Another contributing factor to the mixed record was the fact that the team scored about the same as last year, but the opponents' scores had improved greatly .

As the season progressed, the team scores improved for the most part.

"We're a lot better than when we started As you spend time with people you get used to them," said senior Jared Nun

The team had the opportunity to "get used to each other" in daily practices which lasted for approximately two and a half hours.

Practices gave the gymnasts the chance to work on exactly what they would be doing in competition That included working on old and new tricks (a gymnastic movement - anything from a kick to a flyaway) and routines. In addition, they worked on individual strength for about 30 minutes at each practice.

Even though the gymnastics meets were based on individual participation, teamwork was important to help individuals excel, said Coach Ron Paulsen

But more than good coaching is required to be a good gymnast, according to Nun. It takes "complete dedication and the guts to be able to have half a social life," he said.

Rieke added that it takes "determination, the willingness to put oneself out, the time, and the

"Volleyball has taught me many things - one is how to give. If you aren't willing to give to people, to get along with others, you'll never make it on a team," said senior Nicky White.

The varsity volleyball team learned a lot more than just the sport of volleyball. Sophomore Tracy List said that she learned how to get along and work with different people. She also said that the team was very close, and it helped them work together as a team

"You have to work together to win, and you ' ve got to have fun," said Kari Kussatz, senior.

Besides learning how ·to get along with their teammates, they learned strategies to use against their opponents.

They met one of their opponents, East High, five different times. "Every time we played East, we played our best and looked good," said senior Jennifer Rogers .

Hard work and lots of effort went into the making of this team White said they worked quite a bit on passing · and hitting drills, which were their weak spots.

The coach who led the team during all those practices and games was Randy Schlueter.

"He is a good coach, even though our record didn't show it. He did a lot of switching around to find the best possible rotation for our team," said Rogers.

The team also received leadership from the team captain, Kussatz. She said that she would help the team out on the court, and psych them up before each game.

"Our record wasn't that great, but I think we really improved over the season," said Kussatz.

"Our main goal is to work together as a team and play asa team," said junior Monica Maguire. For the sophomore and reserve volleyball players and coaches, playing as a team was high on the list of priorities for the season

"Communication and being consistent are important," said junior Melissa Becker, "we have to work together if we want to do well during the season and in the tournaments "

These qualities paid off in the city tournaments where the sophomores placed first and the reserves placed second at their level.

The theme for the sophomore team was "WOW 'em", which stands for "Working

On Winning"

"The 'Winning· stood for a personal goal of each girl, such as passing or serving," said Jane Edwards, sophomore coach

Doing well meant putting in a lot of practice time The team had a two-hour practice twice a day from August 18 until school started. During their season, practice was every day after school until around 6 p m

Basic skills, such as passing, setting, hitting, serving, and blocking were worked on during practice time

"A couple of our strong points are our blocking team and our hustling team," said Marsha Beauchamp, assistant coach.

"Team cohesiveness is vital. We get along very well and I have a lot of fun," said Beauchamp, "we are a little family."

"I think the highlight of the season is seeing 12 individuals come together as a team," said Edwards. "Sophomore volleyball gives girls a chance to be exposed to volleyball at a high school level."

A district championship gave the vars ity football team a berth in the State playoffs for the third year in a row after a slow start at the beginning of the season

The Knights, starting out 1-2 with iosses to East and Grand Island, met their goals to become district champs, city co-champs, and conference runners-up with their final 7-3 record.

"We were in a hole at the start of the season but we pulled out of that," said junior Cory Catterson

According to the head coach, Chuck M izerski, consistency was an important factor. Working together and being consistent helped the Knights defeat Fremont 107 The Tigers had previously been undefeated and ranked number one

" That was definitely our best game," said senior Mike Renn "They were the number one team and they hadn't been beaten yet. Nobody gave us a chance to win, we had to prove ourselves "

Unfortunately, the Tigers avenged their loss by defeating Southeast 20-0 in the opening round of playoffs

At seasons ' s end, Southeast had sever a I players that won honors. Scott Hatfield, Allen Dodge, Neil Volker, Dean Sanford, Price Rivers, Tim Herman, Jon Mills, and Troy Bloebaum were named to the all-city team, with Cory Catterson and Marcus Rowe receiving honorable mention.

Mills was named to the Omaha World-Herald AllState second team, while Rivers and Catterson received honorable mention.

Herman made the SuperState team and was named Outstanding Defensive Player of the Year by both the WorldHera Id and the Lincoln Journal-Star

requent motivation spurs teams

"If you aren't a team , you aren't going to get anything accomplished," said sophomore Brad Blumenstock. " Everybody's got to be pulling for each other It's a team effort."

Teamwork was important to both the sophomore and reserve football teams

The reserves ended the season with a record of seven victories and one loss. Their one loss was to Grand Island

They did so wel I "because of team talent. The players played very well together , " said Gene Thompson, assistant coach. " We didn't have any outstanding players -they were all good players "

Another aspect that added to the team's success was the coaching The coaches motivated the the players before games. After the games, they would show players their mistakes and help them learn from them ,

The tea ms practiced for an average of about two hours every day, six days a week. They worked on group offense and defense, scrimmaged, built up individual skills. The reserves usually practiced longer than the other football teams.

According to Blumenstock, practice was tough because the team had to work on a play over and over again until it was perfect.

Another tough thing about practice, said sophomore Eric Altgilbers, was the fact that there were so many practices to go to before the games.

The sophomores had a mixed season and finished with three wins and four losses

Teamwork was a factor which didn't always seem to work out. "This year we have a lot of individuals,' said coach Dan Hohensee "Sometimes they're a team, but mostly, they're individuals."

Revenge! Southeast boys' swim team took revenge over Omaha Westside at this year's state meet.

According to their coach, Bill Flory, the last time Southeast took state was 10 years ago in 1977

Although not all swimmers made it to the state meet, it took everybody to get there Senior Ed Pallesen said the team was a lot more than just one person, and Flory said that his best swimmers were "basically the whole team"

Going into the state meet, senior J.B. Barr said he felt a little nervous and anxious because he thought the team had a good chance at winning the title. Pallesen said he was "extremely nervous" because it was a big deal to him persona I ly, and if the team couldn't take state this year they probably never could do it.

A reason for this was because they "had a lot of really good swimmers in all four classes," Pallesen said.

Pallesen said his most memorable meet was the state meet. "I've been working for my senior year state meet for 11 years and it meant a lot to me personally," he said.

But it wasn't easy getting to State. It was important to win other meets. Flory said some important victories that Southeast had, before State, were against Westside, Omaha Burke, and Lincoln East. Winning those games boosted the team's confidence, Flory said.

Flory said he thought the season was great. He said he had a really good group of kids who were hard-working Barr and Flory agreed that the most memorable meet was the Westside dual. Barr's reasoning was that Southeast had a strong win over Westside, who had always , been the top team. ~reg Nelson

Since beginning practice in November, the girls' swimming and diving teams showed consistent improvement and moved toward their goal of swimming fast at the conference and state meets.

"One of our goals was to make State," said senior diver Shannon Toalson

In addition to team scoring, team members also had personal goals. "I wanted to improve on my time, set a school record, and qualify for the junior nationals," said senior swimmer Gail Nelson.

The common sacrifice and team spirit that came from working together was an important part of team unity, according to Toalson. This team spirit helped individuals excel in meets, she said.

Despite taking a small contingent of swimmers, the girls team exceeded their goals at the state championship at the Bob Devaney Sports Center, taking fourth place. ·

"I was surprised," said Nelson, "because I didn't even think about us placing We only had two relays, three divers and three swimmers that placed."

On the diving team, Toalson placed fourth, senior Stephanie Flanders placed eighth, sophomore Tina Pierson placed twelfth, and Laurie Hanwell, a freshman, placed fifteenth.

Other top winners were Steph Neid, who had two second places, the medley relay had sixth place, the free relay had fourth place, Nelson had seventh and eighth place and freshman Chandy Barr had second in the 500 and fourth in the 400.

"I was pleased with how I did," said Toalson.

"I was really pleased with how things went," said Coach Bill Flory, "placewise I was shooting for the top five."

The wrestling team's goal of winning at least one dual match was easily met as the grapplers ended their season with an impressive 6-2 dual record in addition to sending seven wrestlers to State.

Seniors Mike Siemer, Jeff Fushia, Chad Lunders, Marcus Salters and Monte Nitchie, junior Frank Emsick, sophomore Brent Rardon, and freshman Kyle Emsick all qualified for the state meet Frank Emsick got the farthest by placing fifth in his weight class.

"I wasn't surprised I made it to State, I've been there before," said Em sick, adding that "you can't just dwell on making it there, beca use you still have to wrestle."

Head coach Dick Caster said, "We were competitive, and we had a few close matches I think we did a good job at State given where we were in our program.

Another high point of the season was the Lincoln High dual where the Knights won 33-27. Junior Steve Bussen broke a tie by pinning his opponent with only seconds left on the clock.

Caster attributed the successful season to "a good team concept and a pretty good dual team that had a lot of spirit and enthusiasm."

Part of this spirit came as a result of Caster moving into his first year as head coach

"We had more confidence that· we would go into our match and win, as opposed to wondering how close ' we would come to winning," senior Mike Siemer said.

Caster said he hoped the season was a transition from not being a top contender to becoming a stronger team. "Before, we didn't get any recognition, but this year we surprised a lot of people," said Nitchie.

"W-e were puppies last year, but now we're dogs."

That is the statement Coach Dennie Puelz used to describe his varsity boys' basketball team. "We've had a successful season. Experience - that's why we've been more successful, " he says.

The team finished the regular season with a record of 13 wins and six losses and finished in second place in the district.

The district tournament was "pretty exciting," said junior Mike Works "We all felt that we should have go farther but we were happy with beating East," he added

The regular season started off with a loss to Beatrice. Puelz commented that he thought that game was the highlight of the season because he thought the team knew they were better than last year, but the mental aspect wasn't there for them. "Talk is good," he said, "but you've got to be a doer "

After that game the team settled in to do some winning. "Teamwise," said senior Matt List, "we never really got consistent. We were really erratic."

Works said the victory over Norfolk was probably their biggest regular season win "They were ranked second in the state at that time and we played them at home "

It was through practice that strong points were developed List said that these strong points were rebounding and defense.

Physical strength and aggressiveness were top on the list of strong points made by Puelz. "I think we're physica I ly stronger than other teams Our weightlifting program made a big difference," he said.

Experience was also a listed strength "Our puppies," Puelz stated, "have come of age."

This was part of the atmosphere for the boys' junior varsity and the boys ' sophomore basketball games.

This year, the JV team, consisting of 13 members, four of which were sophomores, accomplished something that no other JV team has accomplished before, sophomore Greg Leuenberger said. They won all their games before Christmas break.

One of the many highlights of the sophomore season was a basket made by Matt Lloyd who shot it from the Knights' free-throw line.

Without a doubt, the first game against East was the best game of the season for the sophomore team

Sophomore Neil Volker said the team played the best together because they were the most excited about that game, since it was against East High

The JV team members had separate views about which game was their best.

Junior Geoff Rownd said Beatrice was the best game because it was the first; the JV team started the season well.

Overall, the JV team, whose record was 7-9, "had its highs and lows," sophomore Scott Ash said

The coach ' s comment about the JV season was that the success of the team should be evaluated on more than the win-loss record.

"I hope the players learned what it takes to be on a successful team," coach J.R. Connell said.

"[The sophomore team] could've gone 12-0, but Coach Thompson got married," senior Brian Gordon said at a pep rally.

The girls' varsity basketball team had to start from scratch. Not only did they lose last year's senior starters, but they lost their crucial height as well.

"Last year everyone expected us to have a good team, but this year people's expectations were different. They questioned our ability," said coach John Larsen

Senior Angie Onouha said that in the pre-ratings their team was not only unrated, but they were not even listed as contenders.

"We wanted to prove we were good We knew it and wanted othersto know it too," said Onouha

Larsen said that what their team lacked in height, they made up for in speed. He said they took advantage of their speed by pressing and using fast breaks against their opponents. This helped them against teams which did not run as much, said Larsen.

As the season went on, the ratings showed that their ability and extra effort paid off.

Onouha said that this ratings increase was a result of their defeating rated teams such as number-two Omaha Marion. She also gave Larsen the credit for their team's unexoected success.

"I think he's a great coach, probably the best in the state. He knows what he is doing," said Onouha.

The team had a couple of younger members added to their group - Sarah Carlson and Amy · Fordham, both freshmen at Irving. Fordham was a starter consistently · throughout the season.

In district play, the girls beat Northeast in the semifinals, but the defending state champs couldn't hold out against East High. It was a close battle, but in the end, top-ranked East pulled through and won the district finals.

19 wins improve overa

Capturing the city title for the fourth straight year, the reserve girls' basketball team finished their successful season with a record of 14 wins and two losses.

Their two losses were both to Grand Island. In those games, "our refs sucked," explained junior Susan Brown. "We played good and stuff, but we kind of got the raw end of the deal both times."

Brown said she considered their biggest win to be the one over Omaha Marian. "We were just so psyched to beat them. They were undefeated. It was awesome. It was a major victory."

But the reserve girls had to do more than show up for the games to win. They practiced from two to two and a half hours every day. Junior Kim Thilges described them as "fun and short goof-off sessions".

"Sometimes it was discouraging that we had to have the South gym, especially when another team who didn't have a game got the Prasch," added junior Monica Maguire.

The sophomores also had an "excellent season", said sophomore Kathy Lewis.

The sophomores finished with a record of five wins and seven losses. Lewis emphasized that their record didn't show the individual and team improvement.

"In the middle of the season, everyone was working together. We had beaten Lincoln High, Northeast, Murdock Varsity, and we were psyching for East," said Lewis.

Sophomore Tina Hike explained their winning streak by saying, "We, in practice, learned a lot of things. Then, in the last four out of six games, we used them."

The 1275 copies of the 1987 Shield yearbook were printed on 80-pound grade A enamel paper by Walsworth Publishing Company of Marceline, Missouri. Mike Diffenderfer was the Walsworth sales representative.

The book price ranged from 15 to 20 dollars each. The price included the 212-page book with an eight-page gatefold, a 24-page supplement, and the Clarion Classic, a creative arts magazine.

The 150 pt board laminated cover with four-color pictures was designed by Ed Pallesen and Andrea Alit to portray the theme "Full of Knight Surprises." The original theme idea came from Carrie Richardson

staff using Rosewriter, an Apple program designed by Terry Rose, a former East High student. The computer disc was played out in the graphics department of the Lincoln Public Schools Building. Shield staffers set the copy for the Clubs section, the senior summaries and the spring supplement using a Macintosh Plus computer with Microsoft Word; the copy was printed, camera-ready, on an Apple LaserWriter.

Copy for the theme, divider, and closing pages was set in Chelmsford type, with headlines in Chelmsford and le Griffe types. Copy in the Student Life section was set in Serif Gothic type, the People section in Avant Garde, Academics in Garamond, Sports in Univers, and the Mini-Mag in Fredricka and American Type Medium . The copy prin-

ted with the LaserWriter was set primarily in Helvetica and Times, with a few items set in novelty types.

Layouts for the Student Life section were done in three-plus-column, Sports in four-column, People in two-column, Clubs in three-column, Academics in five-column, and the Mini-Mag in a freestyle layout.

Using a fresh approach to portray the lives of Southeast students, the MiniMag was printed on an eight-page gatefold.

The book was completed in six segments, the first of which included all of the color pages and the cover. All events after the final March 16 deadline were covered in the spring supplement. Four-color processing was used on the first 16 pages of the book and the

cover. "Autumn Gold" was used on the endsheets.

The Shield is a member with a firstclass rating in both the National Scholastic Press Assocation and the Columbia Scholastic Press Association, and is also a member of the Nebraska High School Press Association. The Shield received its sixth consecutive Cornhusker award with its 1986 book

National/International Issues 1986-87

Though oftentimes Southeast students' most pressing concerns were beating East in basketball or studying for upcoming tests, other events of a broader scope were also of general interest to students. Undeniably, national and international news events were important and impacted the lives of high school students everywhere.

On the domestic front, one of the most significant events politically involved the Iran-Contra arms scandal. In November, a Syrian magazine revealed that the U.S. had, in direct contradiction of its stated policy, shipped arms to Iran, apparently in the hope of winning the release of American hostages in the Mid-East. Subsequent investigations revealed that, through the efforts of National Security Council aide Lt. Col. 01 iver North and others, profits from the sale were diverted to the U.S.-backed "Contras" fighting to overthrow the Nicaraguan government. The affair's political significance lay in the threat it posed to Ronald Reagan's popularity, which suffered a blow when the Democrats wrested control of the U.S. Senate from the Republicans.

Close to the pocketbooks of Lincoln families was the historic tax reform act passed by Congress. The act simplified the tax structure and eliminated many of the deductions which characterized the previous tax system.

Also on the financial end of the spectrum was the insider-trading scandal, which rocked Wall Street. Among those implicated was stockbroker Ivan "The Terrible" Boesky. New York was also the scene of the biggest mafia trial in the history of organized crime. Leaders from all five families of the New York mob were convicted as part of a national crackdown on organized crime.

The national emphasis on public health reached Lincoln in two forms: the crusade against drug abuse and the concer r:1:> over Acquired Immune Defi-

ciency Syndrome (AIDS). In school, the SCIP program was implemented to wean drug users of their habit. Health classes and other groups brought the idea of AIDS-education and prevention into Southeast's consciousness.

Internationally, U.S.-Soviet relations continued to dominate news. As Soviet General Secretary Mikhail Gorbachev instituted reform measures in his own country, he and Ronald Reagan met in Reykjavik, Iceland and almost reached a historic arms reduction pact. The sole stumbling block was apparently the inability to agree upon Reagan's proposal for SDI, a space-based nuclear defense.

The U.S.S.R. was the scene for one of the worst nuclear tragedies in 50 years, when a nuclear reactor at Chernobyl exploded spewing radiation into the air endangering the health of countless Europeans.

Amid continued terrorism and regional fighting, there were also happy moments in the world. One of the most festive revolved around the wedding of Britains Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson. Americans gave a giant salute to Dennis Conner and the crew of the yacht "Stars and Stripes" for recapturing the America's Cup.

Inevitably, there were deaths. The most stirring death from Nebraska's perspective came in March when U.S. Senator Edward Zorinsky suffered a fatal heart attack. Others who died included actors James Cagney, Danny Kaye and Cary Grant, and artists Andy Warhol and Georgia O'Keefe.

Whether we recognized their importance or not, news events had a way of shaping our lives. Be it obvious or subtle, our lives were different due to the consequences of actions in Moscow, Tripoli, and Washington, D.C. Under- · standing them became a challenge of worldly proportions.

School pride was one reason Southeast enjoyed an exceptional year. A concrete example of school pride came when the student council restored the vandalized knight in the front hall by cleaning it. In addition, Assistant Principal Don Darnell also purchased a new sword for the mascot at "Swappers' Paradise".

During the happy times or during the sad ones, Southeast students always strived to meet their potential. That much has been true year-in and yearout. What set this year apart was the sheer quantity and quality of the awards we received and the presence of many less tangible accomplishments. In those respects~ this year wa~_; full of Knight surprises.

Just as many students were getting used to the warm weather, Mother Nature had the temerity to unlease a snowstorm in late March. Here the snow piles up in front of the school.

Spring season brings fun

As the year progressed from winter to spring, the types of activities and the atmosphere at Southeast changed as well as the weather. A new group of sports and club activities became available, warm weather came, and thoughts turned to finishing the year and to summer. For seniors, the end of the school year meant a major transition from public school to work or college.

One of the most noticeable changes came with the weather. For the most part, the winter of 1986-87 was a mild one, with few snows and unseasonably warm temperatures. In addition, summer-type temperatures came early and shorts and T-shirts were standard dress as early as March. There was one noticeable exception, however. Just as Lincolni tes were becoming accustomed to the warm weather, one , last, major snowstorm hit in April. Though it soon melted, the snow gave students a final opportunity for snowball fights, cross-country skiing, and shoveling.

Staff changes played a part in changing L.S.E. At the conclusion ·

of first semester, veteran biology teacher Les Ekdahl retired, and was replaced by former Dawes Junior High teacher Steve Nelsen. At the end of the year, the Assistant Principal for Instruction Rex Mercer retired. Taking a leave of absence was English teacher Stu Kerns. All of the departing staff was saluted for their work and -dedication to Southeast.

This year was unfortunately notable for the number of illnesses of Southeast staff. Several members of faculty families were hospitalized or passed away, and some Southeast teachers fell ill, most seriously Principal Wesley Lauterbach and Math teacher Leonard Nickerson, both with heart problems. Athletic Director Wally Mc Naught was hospitalized in the spring for back problems.

As the year drew to a close, students and faculty alike became restless for the advent of summer vacation and relaxation. At the same time, however, people reflected upon the year's accomplishments and looked forward to the challenges of the future.

Show captures 1940's

The sounds of the "Chattanooga Choo-Choo" and the "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy From Company B". along with the sights of slicked-back hair and an antique Coca-Cola machine set the stage for the "1940's Radio Hour".

This musical took place in the seedy studios of WOV , a 5,000-watt local New York City radio station , about an hour before a Monday night broadcast of a weekly variety show. "The Mutual Manhattan Variety Calvacade," December 21, 1942.

The musical was shown March 19, 20, 21. It was directed by Carol Svoboda and Tim Sharer.

"Carol is a very , very talented person. Unfortunately, not many people know that. Her ability to portray any character is unbelievable. Without Carol, this musical would have been a complete failure," said senior Rachelle Becker, who played Ginger Brooks.

Plenty of dedication, time, and · effort went into the making of the musical. ·For six weeks, the cast had rehearsals for three hours every night, except Sundays. When it came close to ~howtime, practice time went up to five hours a night.

"It definitely took up all of your time, but it was worth it! During rehearsals -we learned our blocking, practiced songs, ran parts of the show. and became a family," said senior Nancy Christensen, who played jazz singer Geneva Lee Brown.

"For my role in the play. I had to learn how to walk 'real cool' and act sophisticatedly drunk," said senior Brent Kuenning who played Johnny Cantene, the featured vocalist of the Cavalcade.

The musical's 1940's setting of a radio station was a big hit with the audience because it successfully involved them in the musical.

"I loved the set because i t got you into the 1940's, and it got t he audience involved by using the applause sign, " said j unior Anne Rickers.

Senior Bart Sidles, who played Wally Fergeson, said, "I thought the musical went really well. There were small things that went wrong in every , performance, but only the actors

knew. It was really fun to be involved."

Knights display talents

Various talents were displayed at "Late Knight '87'', the annual ''Nite of Knights" talent show. Students performed singing, dancing and comedy acts to entertain parents, peers and other people on the nights of April 2, 3, and 4.

The curtain opened at 7:30 each night in the audtorium. The masters of ceremony started off the show with "The Lo_ve Link", a spoof of "The Love Connection" television show . The show lasted for approximately two hours, with a 10:-minute intermission after the tenth act

"I think that this was one of the best shows that has been here in a lo1-1g time," said director Stu Kerns. "The length was cut and the quality was concentrated on." The show was cut from 20 ~cts to 18 to provide for the average person's attention span.

A central committee, made up of 1 various club representatives, picked the acts. "We wanted to get a larger variety of acts than in previous years, but quality is - the first and utmost concern," said senior Laura McKee, a central committee member.

"Late Knight '87" included various instrumental and vocal acts, three dance acts and two comedy skits.

The two skits were written and performed by students who auditioned for masters of ceremony. "We thought that the groups that tried out for master! of ceremony were all entertaining and should be shared with the students for their enjoyment," said Kerns.

The "best act" was chosen by the central committee. The award was presented to the Ars Nova Coro select jazz choir for "Hawk". Using ultraviolet lights for special effect, the singers dressed in black with white masks and gloves.

"I thought the performance went better than expected," said senior Cindi Pasco. "The special effects ideas of Mr. Sharer added a lot of creativity. n

Finding costumes and arranging the song took a lot of extra time, but proved to be worthwhile for "Hawk."

The preparation for all the acts took lots of time and effort for those involved. The members of the central committee helped the performers and stage crew to have the show proceed more efficiently. The coordinators, Mr. Kerns and Mr. Krueger found that being directors for the show helped the show run smoothly.

School provides party

For the first time in Southeast's history, Prom-goers had something school-sponsored to do after the dance. The Parent Teacher Student Organization and Student Council organized a Post-Prom Party. It started at midnight and ended at 5 :30 a.m.

The purpose for sponsoring the party was to discourage students from attending post-Prom parties where drugs or alcohol were used.

The party had music, a Las Vegas style casino room with parents as dealers, door prizes, and free food such as nachos, pizza, and small Runzas.

Before Prom, many students went out to eat. Some popular places to go were The Cornhusker, Tony and Luigi's, and The Nebraska Club.

Most guys rented tuxes, which ran from about $40 to $70. Girls wore many different styles of dresses, which ran from about $60 to $120. Often the guys wore cumberbunds and ties that matched the color of their dates ' dr~

Prom once again took place at the UNL Stur!ent Union in the ~entennial Room.

One Whisper was the band that played. "I thought the band was all right, but the last song they played wasn't a slow song," said junior Laura Shorney. "I think they should play a slow song for the last dance."

Towards the end of the evening, the Prom Royalty was announced. Mary McGreer and Dan Fordham were fourth runners up, Christy Rohn and Marco Spinar were third, Lori Goin and Mike Works were second, and Tausha Gilbertson and Mark Bunde were first Prom Queen was Susan Brown, and King was John Roper.

"It was a neat feeling," said Brown. "I hadn't at all expected to be royalty; there was a lot of d~serving people. But, it really made Prom special."

After Prom, students went to breakfasts, parties, hotel rooms, or the Post-Prom Party.

"We went to the Villager for breakfast after Prom," said senior Amy Henrichson.

Discussing the plot of a possible mystery are Jessica Olive, played by sophomore Andrea Portes, Whit Olive, played by junior Chad Wright, Brad Benedict, played by soph·omore Paul Ambrosius, and Rodney Duckton, played by senior Brett Eby.

WHATTODO

In a perplexing situation, junior Wright holds the dead. bodies of his two beauties, junior Linda Barger and sophomore Andrea Portes.

Mystery provides thrills

If murder, mystery, comedy and suspense were what you wanted, the spring play offered all of this and more.

"Done to Death," a play by Fred Carmichael, was presented May 7 and 8 in the auditorium. The 17-member

cast was chosen before Easter break and practices began on April 7, said director Carol Svoboda. The average length of practices were from three to four hours long on weeknights, and between five and six hours long on Saturdays, said sophomore Andrea Portes.

The story was a mystery/comedy that was a parody on every mystery plot, hero, and villain written in the past 50 years. Five once-famous mystery writers used their investigative techniques to solve a series of bizarre murders, Svoboda said.

After reading through the script, sophomore Andrea Portes said she thought it would be a good play because it was funny.

Rodney Duckton, played by senior Brett Eby, said he enjoyed the play because it was funny and he thought the audience would laugh and

have a good time. Eby said the practices were long and hard, but were worth it because the play was fun.

This being his first and only appearence on stage, Eby said he regretted not trying out for more plays.

Portes, who played author Jessica Olive, said she was very pleased with the play. She said she thought the set and costumes were done well, but the cast was only given about a month for rehearsals.

Portes said she was surprised to be chosen as a cast member, let alone a lead.

"To be with people for a month, · then it is over, and you never see them is sad," said Portes. "It's like Christmas, when it's gone it leaves you spellbound."

Svoboda said,"'Done to Death,' is a fun play for the actors to act and for the audience to watch. The exaggerated characterizations are wonderful for the actors and I was looking for something that would give the audience an evening that was pure entertainment"

"Splish, splash I was takin' a bath " That song was just one out of 15 performed in the annual SynkraKnights show.

This year's theme, "A Knight Below the H20", consisted mostly of ;ongs having to do with water. In each act, two people were selected to pic k the music and make up tlre routines, with the whole group deciding on their costumes.

synkraKnights had 35 members, all of whom performed in at least one act. Senior Kat Searcy perfonned the only solo act to the tune of "Sailing".

"The good thing about a solo is that if I mess up, no one knows," Searcy said, "but I think I got it down."

The officers~ seniors Nicky White, Shelley Donovan, Kara McGinn, and Alice Bunge, also had their own act, performing to the song , "Singing in the Rain "

"Being an officer is frustrating because we have to get people to show up for their groups, but in the end, we hope that the members don't hate us and we are rewarded with a good show," said Bunge.

Adding senior men to one of their routines added spice to the show.

Seniors Ed Pallesen, John Dawson , J.B. Barr, Scott Hatfield , Jim Neid, Ben Harris, Steve Strong, Marcus Balters, Gary Watson, Gary Hanna, and Matt McNair all got involved by performing with the SynkraKnights to "In the Navy "

"It's a lot harder than it looks," said senior Jim Neid.

Tryouts for SynkraKnights were held in November, with about 45 girls trying ou t. The selected girls found out that they 'd been chosen by being kidnapped.

Practices started after first quarter with everyone practicing twice a week

"You get a lot of exercise, but it's fun," said senior Stephanie Gray. ·

The members go t to know each other better through dinners and pizza parties, as well as at practice.

"It's a lot of work , but it's really great to see everyone pull together at the end," Searcy said. "Mrs. Kuebler was a big help. Without her, we would have been lost."

One of the most popular booths at the Spring Day event is the pie in the face booth, here Larry Eaton gets his 25 cents worth by throwing a pie at Mike Ware.

Some junior guys show their muscle at the tug of war game.

Food, games spell fun

Spring Day was an annual event that was for a good cause. Students who participated paid 50 cents to get out of their sixth and seventh period classes. All proceeds went to the Make-A-Wish foundation, which granted wishes to terminally ill people.

Student Council was the group in charge of getting Spring Day off the ground.

Many of the traditional booths were set up, along with some new ones. Included in the festivities were an obstacle course, a water-balloon throw, an egg toss, a kissing booth, a pie-throw in teachers ' faces and a shaving cream fight. Sophomore Jannelle McDowell and senior Matt McNair manned the kissing bo0th.

"I really liked the pie-throw!" said senior Monte Olsen. "I didn ' t participate, I just watched, but I thought it was funny when people started throwing pies at each other instead of the teachers "

"We got creamed in th e shaving cream fight!" said seniors Nelle Woods and Laura Rasmussen. "Garj

Watson and Jeff Fitchett (also seniors) got shaving cream in our ears,and we couldn't hear! Then they threw us in the mud!"

DECA club hired the Runza truck to park in the drive beside the courtyard to sell mini-Runzas and Pepsi.

"We chose three bands out of the five that auditioned to perform at Spring Day, however, one band dropped out, so two bands performed They were 'Our Carousel' and 'Mike Vapor'," said StuCo President Jim Neid.

One of the bands, Our Carousel, consisted of juniors Joel Rosenhaur and Tony Hillhouse, East High student Pat Egan, and junior Jason Wall. Senior Steve Strong, juniors M i tch Parker, Brent Johnson, and Tony Hillhouse made up Mike Vapor, the other band _ at Spring Day.

"I think it would ' ve helped if peop le would've danced, " said Strong. "People never dance at Spring Day, so they probably never will. " -Amy

ennis, girls earn unity crucial in matches

"The most important thing in playing tennis is your attitude. If you have determination and confidence, you will do well," said sophomore C laire Simon. "Being consistent is also important, and if y ou are not having fun, you 're not going to play very well."

Along with possessing these attributes, the girls' varsity tennis team also had the goals of recapturing the city title and finishing in the top five at State. Coach Janet McNiell said she believed her team could meet these goals.

McNiell also said that the team had a slow start due to the injuries of three of her top players - Ginny Wood, Jennifer Brown, and Laura Arth.

Practice s consisted of "hardcore beat at the ball," said senior Liz Wright.

"We used the ball machine to build endurance, and we had many challenge matches for on-thecourt experience," she said.

Practices proved to also be a time of maturity for the girls. McNiell said that the girls learned to move the ball around the court and to play more aggressively Individual practice was important, but as senior Susie Wilson said she realized - tennis is a team sport.

The reserves had tough time getting started, but junior Kris Walt said that she had faith that her team could pull through in the city championships.

"We're working hard as a group and we're trying our best. We may not have had that good of a start, but I know we're going to do a lot better," said Walt.

· The varsity team said they expected to have a good showing at State. Six girls represented Southeast at State.

McNiell said that their seeding at State basically depended on the luck of the draw.

"We should be able to conceivably finish in the top three at State," she said.

--uys have swing'cessful year

"Going into the '87 golf season as returning state champions, we were sometimes frowned upon by other schools," said junior Dan Fordham

Along with negative feelings from other teams, rain and plenty of bad weather put a damper on practices. It even caused some meets to be cancelled. But, after a while, the weather cooperated and daily practices were held.

With only three returning letterwinners from the champion team, a crew of young new faces sparked enthusiasm, one of which was freshman Brian Bock.

Returning were juniors Dan Fordham, John Roper, and Jason Wall.

"It's like we have an image to live up to, we need to fill their shoes," said Fordham, referring to the '86 team.

Everyone worked hard in practice, aiming for their personal and team goals.

Fordnam explained the team's goals. "We worked as a team, but golf is more personal. One person can blow it for everyone. We all wanted to do our best and qualify for State!"

The team practiced daily at various parks from 3:00 until 6 or 6:30 p .m. Varsity and reserve team members practiced together. "There was not much difference between the two levels, Rusty Ford said.

"Our reserve players had easier competition, but that didn't mean anything," said Ford. "Any of them could have played at the varsity level. We have a lot of depth."

The team members had good feelings toward their coach. Dan Wolf was a golfer himself, so his game knowledge was very good.

"He did a really good job," said Ford. "He encouraged us and wanted us to be serious yet still have fun."

"We feel we had a successful year. We practiced hard, concentrated, and did a pretty good job of hitting that little white ball!" said Ford.

alent leads team to success

"The whole team did well because Southeast's talent is great in each area of track," said junior Michelle Geistlinger

This talen t was shown when the team placed either first 0r second in nearly al l of the meets . According to Geistlinger, Lincoln High and Omaha Burke provided rough compet i t i on for the distance team , but Southeast had an advantage many of the girls on the team also ran crosscountry.

Behind the team 's talent were many hard-working girls, which were needed in order to succeed, said Coach Mick Johnson :

Another key element of the team 's success, and a difference between this team and · other teams, was the friendship between the girls.

"We are all good friends, and I think that makes a lot of difference on the track," said senior Lori Greathouse. "We work together as a team, and not just individuals."

Along with the personal goals each athlete had, they all had one goal in common The team's ultimate goal was to get as many people to State as possible, Greathouse said.

Greathouse said that the greatest improvement that could be made in the track program would be to get an all-weather track. The one that was being used at the time had a crushed brick surface, which caused inconsistancy.

Another improvement in

track would be for people to realize what it actually is, and show more support

"It'd be nice if it was recognized as something you work hard in and compete to do well in, " said sophomore Julie McKenzie

Similarly, commenting on the limited fans at the meets, Greathouse said, "We have a tradition of having a very good track team every year, so we must be doing something right, and I wish people would realize this."

earn surpasses expectations

"The team is really opt1m1st1c, working hard, and :., , e building toward State," said distance coach Ted Larson.

The team, otherwise known as "Roy's Boys" in honor of head coach Roy Churchill, consisted of 50 to 60 boys. These boys competed in 17 different track and field events.

These 17 events were divided into four squads: throws, jumps (including pole-vaulting), sprints and hurdles, and distance. Each of these squads had an event coach.

According to junior Jeff Scherer, one of the strengths of the team was the distance squad, led by Nate Nielsen.

Nielsen, a cross-country AllAmerican, was described by his coach as "probably the best distance runner the · state of Nebraska has ever seen."

But Nielsen wasn't the only Knight that stood out. Others were Vince McKinney in the 400, Jeff Scherer in the 200, and Doug Cowling in the long jump, according to Larson

There was more to the track team than running events. Junior pole vaulter Dennis Rieke saia that the field team was "starting to live up to its potential. The season is getting better as it goes along."

"Field events are difficult because you don't learn the stuff when you're a kid," said Rieke. "Running events are so natural. Field events like pole-vaulting aren't."

To learn and develop skills, like pole~vaulting, practices were held after school. They lasted approximately two hours. The athletes first stretched out, then broke into squads to work with event coaches.

port makes its varsity debut

Southeast and the other Lincoln public schools received a new addition to their spring sports family as soccer made its debut as a varsity sport.

For the past three years, soccer was only a club sport. The club played other Lincoln schools, as well as schools in Omaha and Kansas. The enthusiasm for the game intensified, and, eventually, soccer became established as a varsity sport at all of Lincoln's public high schools, but not without the help of Capital City Soccer Association and funding from PSAB.

"Soccer became really popular in the past few years," said sophomore Paul Carver. "The district finally had no choice but to make it a varsity sport."

Based on their records of the previous year, Class A schools were divided into Divisions A and B; Southeast was placed in Division B. According to Head Coach Dan Hohensee, the team hoped to finish in the upper half of their division and win the city championship.

"I think we have a lot of talent," said junior Christian Wanamaker.

Because soccer was not sanctioned as a state sport, there was no official state tournament. However, there were division playoff rounds between the top eight teams.

The players agreed unanimously that teamwork greatly improved their performance.

"When we work as a team, we are really good," said sophomore Pat Colleran. "At the start of the season, we played more as individuals, but the last few games, we've really come together."

"Everyone had a good attitude," Carver added. "The coach raised the morale of the players. We were real confident even when we lost. Everyone just shakes it off :>:,d is ready to play again."

rolhorst stresses team play

"[You] have to play as a team," said Randy Brolhorst, varsity baseball coach. "[You have to] stick together." There were no individuals on the team that stood out, but the team as a whole should get credit because one person doesn't make a team, he said.

At the beginning of the season, Brolhorst said he thought that pitching would be a weakness of the team , but the pitching staff surprised him. The pitchers threw a lot more strikes than he thought they would, he said.

A disappointment to the team happened at the Papillion Invite where they faced Northeast. According to Brolhorst, they were a better/ team than Northeast. They had them beat, but in the last io/fing, they couldn't pull off any qefensive plays, he said.

Right after the Papillion In te, the team faced Lincoln ij gh. "[We] hammered them 19 to two," Brolhorst said, "because we played aggressively."

~

Junior Dan Routh said his most memorable game was the victory against Lincoln High; it was the biggest win so far at that point in the season. The whole team played well, he said.

The weather was a problem at the beginning of the year , b!1t later on in the season, the weather was "super," Brolhorst said. "It's been fun for the kids and the coaches."

At the beginning of the season, Brolhorst said, "the weather was a problem, but in the last two weeks, the weather has been super. It's been fun for the kids and the coaches."

Routh said that the season "has been a lot of fun", but it started out slow because there were a lot of indoor practices. That was because of the rain that fell at the beginning of the season.

Routh saw one improvement that could be made in the area of baseball. He would "like to see more student support," he said.

_... a lance proves key for teams

"We've been playing together as a good team," said junior Scott Oehm. "We do the job for each other."

The reserves finished with a winning season and high hopes for the city tournament. "We'll win it," said sophomore Todd Helgren. "Definitely."

Coach Gene Thompson attributed the team's success in the regular season to having a lot of talented, young players (10 sophomores and seven juniors) and not having any great players.

"We've got a balanced team," said Thompson, referring to the team 's ability to field, hit, and pitch.

Thompson said the team 's weakness was inconsistency in hitting and fielding, commenting on the need to handie fly balls better. He attributed this weakness to the fact that the team was young.

Helgren said a weakness was a lack of leadership and experience.

A weakness Oehm noted was the team's attitude. "Our attitude going into games isn't as hot as it should be. It's like we're just show ing up."

Besides showing up for games, the reserves, along with the sophomores, had practice to attend. The typical practice lasted approximately two hours, and included playing catch to warm up, stretching, batting, taking infield and outfield, and running.

Dougherty listed the sophomore team's strengths: good hitting, pitching, the abi lity to score runs, and good hitting. "We could be the best sophomore team in Lincoln if we live up to our potential. n

Sophomore Dion Dragoo said a weakness of the team was being a little too cocky because of such a successful season. He added that there was a lack of motivation Dougherty said the team could improve its spe.ed.

Despite some weaknesses , Dougherty said. "Ies been a good season. I'm proud of what they've done."

Seniors earn freedom

Seniors no longer got out earlier, due to a new L.P.S. policy. Further, seniors were no lo nger exempt from taking final exams.

This was the final test of many a senior's endurance.

Those who endured this test received their diplomas during commencement at Pershing Auditorium on June 7 - provided that they' d paid their fines and obligations.

"Speaking from an ower - they could probably build a new wing on the school from my fines - I don't t hi n k it's fair," said senior Katie Dimo n. "I t's so cruel."

B ut , whether a senior received a diploma o r an empty folder with an li brar y fi ne no t ic e , there were c omm enc ement tr adi ti ons to be kept.

O ne suc h tradi tio n was choo si ng partn ers fo r walking down the aisle.

"It may be your boyfriend or g ir lfr ien d or someon e th at you ' ve kno wn sm ce junior high ," sh e said. Com mence ment tradit ion was broken, tho ugh, with the addition of three insp irational speakers.

The t wo trad itio nal commence-

ment speakers were se mors S tep ha nie Feistner and Ed Pallesen, and the three additional inspirati onal speakers were seniors Laura McKee, Steven Pearso n , and Scott Wright.

Commencement was later in the year than usual, an d seniors remained in school to the very end This was due, in part, to a new finals schedule.

To ensure that no student would have more than two finals on the same day, the usual one hour class periods were rescheduled the last few days of school to an hour and a half long, evenly distributing exam times and allowing teachers to g ive exams that were more compre hensive.

Balancing the longer schedu le, though, were the events celebrating graduation.

After the Spring Day festivities on May 8, teachers c ooked up hamburgers at the senior barbeque.

And, for those seniors who chose to attend a religious service, a joint baccalaureate was hel d for all four Lincoln public high schools on May 31 at Pershing, a week before graduation.

Events honor students

Support and encouragement was heartily given by parents, teachers, and peers to the students being recognized at the 32nd Annual Awards and Scholarships Program.

The program, held on May 11 in the auditorium, honored students for a wide variety of achievements.

"The most interesting thing was seeing how many awards and scholarships people won," said senior Sandra Rezac Much of the program was devoted to recognizing those receiving academic awards and scholarship, but it didn ' t neglect those who had excelled in other disciplines, such a s art and music.

Many of the awards had already been presented at club banquets and other awards programs, so not all the awards listed in the program were presented on stage. All awards were listed in the program

"It was nice that the program acknowledged everyone," said senior Brent Kuenning.

The listing of awards was extensive - enough to fill 21 pagesbut Rezac said that she "appreciated

being able to see all the different awards being received by Southeast students."

A new award was presented in memory of Michael Hansen, a seniorto-be who had died in a car crash just before the start of the school year. Senior Scott Wright and junior Jane Peters received this award from Judy Hansen, Mike's mother, for their devotion to promoting safety, especially seat belt safety.

Another program honoring academic achievement was the Honors Convocation held on March 18 in the Prasch gym. The program recognized honor ro ll students and National Honor Society members and officers. Those students who received straight ones for two consecutive semesters were pre sen ted wi th an academic letter, an d those with four consecutive semes ters of ones received an academ ic pin.
