It’s the theme for the ’87- ’88 yearbook. When we chose Columbus Classic as the theme, we weren’t trying to be trendy or cute. We simply wanted a theme that would give the book mean- ing. This school, after all, is a classic. For three years, the seniors have spent the better part of their lives and creat- ed some of their best memories here. The original formula stamp on the back cover signifies how things were before the changes were made. This building, and everything that goes on in it, will never be the same again. So — catch the wave to the best memories of your life. It’s all in here — Columbus Classic — maroon, white and YOU!! -The 1987-88 Voyage Staff Opening 3 4 Opening Opening 5 6 Academics tudents respond to calculus Schooling consists of reading, writ- ing and arithmetic. Mr. Bernard Nitsch controlled part of the arithmetic with his ruler in geometry and calculus. Mr. Nitsch especially enjoyed teach- ing calculus. “The students respond to calculus knowing it is preparing them for col- lege,” he said. Mr. Nitsch used demonstrations at the board, physical objects to demon- strate and had students go to the board to fulfill his goals of having students learn. While Mr. Nitsch was preparing stu- dents to move on to harder math classes and for college, he was teaching from a new calculus book. The book’s chapters were arranged differently than previous texts which caused Mr. Nitsch to have a different schedule for plans and goals. Preparing for the addition of fresh- men courses next year did not directly affect him, so he continued to be pre- pared for sophomores. Although the math department did not have to change its curriculum much, a few new things will be added when the freshmen make their appearance. Stacie Rickert uses her study time to finish up her homework. Beth Klein reads over her math assignment before class. After a quiz, Eric Nielsen takes a stretch. Greg Hutcheson attempts to sneak in a nap dur- ing his math class. Brad Wagoner works on a difficult algebraic equation. 8 Academics omputer mental tool-Griffith Students in computer classes learned special programming and problem- solving skills by using commercial and text editing programs. They also got a chance to find out exactly what the computer can do. According to Mr. Alan Griffith, teacher, the purposes of the computers classes were to teach students how to write programs and to help them on a personal and business lev- el. Griffith said he liked teaching comput- ers because it was an interesting subject. He added that “the computer is a men- tal tool which can be applied to a variety of things. It can be used in any course.” The class enrollment was down from last year. Two computers were replaced. Griffith said students should take com- puter classes because “it is something they will be using the rest of their lives”. Eric Meissner reads over a program before keying it into the computer. Jennifer Marti watches carefully to be sure “return” does not become “delete.” Sam Richards places high value on accuracy of key- boarding. Mitch Slusarski reads over his program to make sure there ar no mistakes. Mr.Ron Veal helps Janet Ernst as Mitch Slusarski and Jennifer Hartl work. Computers 9 anguage, life, science topics In order for a student to graduate, he must have passed at least one year of science classes. Classes offered included biology, physical or environmental science, chemistry, physics and physiology. Biology was a two-period class pri- marily concerned with the basic skills of science and understanding the proper- ties of the living world. Students enrolled in this class learned about types of scien- tific procedures, concepts and the lan- guage used in biology. Chemistry classes studied atomic structures, the periodic table, chemical bonding, electronegativity, basic chemi- cal formulas and equation writing. Physics students gained knowledge in the understanding of what was going on around them, how and why things work the way they do and why things happen in a particular manner. Teachers of the science classes were Mr. Ron Callan, Mr. Chris Dixon, Mr. Alan Griffith, Mr. Jack Young and Mrs. Jean Dykes. A biology class hunts for bugs while only a few find exactly what they were looking for. Jay Modlin concentrates on mixing his chemicals correctly. Chris Kratochvil demonstrates how to position a test tube in its holder. Cory Schlesinger picks the perfect leaf on this bi- ology field trip. Tammy Dush. holding the pole, and Brent Krohn, preparing to throw, participate in an ex- periment for physics with J. Uhlmann. Susan Vorderstrasse and Mike Muhsman watching. 10 Academics A group of biology students collects pine needles to study in a unit about plants. “I refuse to touch it” Pam Stoakes thinks as her partner starts to dissect a fetal pig. Alisa Leslie, right, seems to be amazed at the reaction of chemicals as Lisa Nelson writes the results. Craig Kohtz grins as he discovers the item he's been look- ing for while Matt Walden, left, and Bryce Heese ap- prove. Greg Hutcheson tries to decide which chemicals to use for his chemistry lab. “Are you sure we don't already have one like this? Beth Kline asks Jay Kroeker. Science 11 L ife skills taught in business! Life skills along with career bene- fits are main reasons to take a business class, according to Mr. Gordon Essink, business teacher. Miss Mona Schoenrock, also a busi- ness teacher, feels that students who are pursuing business careers in business ad- ministration, accounting, marketing or the secretarial field should take a busi- ness class. Students enrolled in office occupa- tions internship who have shown an in- terest in the office area and have neces- sary skills to be employed are allowed to work at their jobs off campus during school hours. The businesses seem to be very co- operative and willing to work with stu- dents, Mr. Essink said. Tracy Skalak, an office internship student in the school office, explained that one learns what it is like to work in an office atmosphere. “It helps you to find out if this is ac- tually what you want to do for a career,” she said. Kelly Kehlbeck, another internship student employed at NPPD, stated she learned proper business procedures for working in an office. She feels the class will be helpful in her business career. Both plan to go to college and fur- ther their business educations. Eric Nelson finalizes his word processing assign- ment. Troy Shotkoski, I)an Wolfe and Byron Bejvan- cesky type quickly during a one-minute timed writing. 12 Academics Traci Skalak double checks a memo while working Dave Neemeyer analyzes his spread sheets. Erik Larson practices his computer skills. in the school office. Kira Jansen checks how to do data bases. Chris Murtaugh looks for typing errors while Cory Bunde completes his warmup. Business 13 arketing insight to business The coordinated system of business activities designed to provide products and services that satisfy the needs and wants of customers through exchange processes. What is this? This is marketing. There were two marketing classes available to students, Marketing I and II. Marketing I was offered to juniors and sen- iors and Marketing II was offered to stu- dents with a prerequisite of Marketing I. The marketing classes were taught by Mrs. Roberta Uhrig and Mr. Richard Young. The classes taught skills in marketing, merchandising, management and human relations. Students also studied advertising, promotion and the functions of businesses. They also were involved with creating dis- plays, role playing and working at local businesses through the internship pro- gram. Amy Busteed replied to the question of why she enjoyed Marketing. “Marketing gives you an insight into what the marketing, merchandising and management world has to offer. It helps develop skills for life.” Students in Marketing I work on a project together. One of the many displays done by marketing students created by Lisa Eusterbrock and Tad Steulpnagel. Camie Watson works hard putting up a display. Jenny Hartl. Lori Gellermann. Rhonda Bugay and Gary Beckman study a new product. Can you name all of the stars? was a contest put up by Jeff Bettenhausen and Kyle Tonniges. 14 Academics D iscoverer produces more photos £ £ W t was my job to open doors and I steer students away from X errors,” Mrs. Marilou Jasnoch, advisor for The Discoverer, explained. Mrs. Jasnoch enjoyed her first year as advisor, remarking that the only things she had to do was open doors to creativity by giving the reporters ideas and then making sure that they did not make mistakes that would harm the pa- per or the school. Except for the misfortune that the first issue of The Discoverer was lost by the printer, the staff did not have many problems. Eight issues were put out last year. One thing that last year’s staff tried to accomplish was putting more pictures in each issue. They felt that photos made the paper more exciting to read. When asked what she liked best about being advisor for The Discoverer, Mrs. Jasnoch replied, “The students were independent- I didn’t have to play mom!!” Jeanette Frazer and Editor Grctchen Markel decide which photo to use for the front page story. Dan Sherbo looks the newly-printed Discoverer over before it is distributed. Stuffing papers is part of the job for Jeanette Fra- zer, Caitlin Ellefson, Greg Asche, Bob Haus- mann and Gretchen Markel. One of the advantages of being on the Discoverer staff, shown by Managing Editor Dan Schmit, is getting to read the paper before anyone else. “I need more of page six, Greg Asche says to a fellow paper stuffer. Newspaper 1.5 earbook: a year-round job To the average student or teacher, it may seem that all the year- book staff did was roam the halls and sneak food into the Production Room. However, contrary to popular belief, the staff put in a lot of hard work and ex- tra hours. Work on the book began during the summer before school was even a glim- mer in most students’ minds. Mr. Robert Adams, yearbook advi- sor, held early morning meetings at his house during the summer months. These were organizational meetings, and the main purpose of them was to get the edi- tors together to start thinking about the book. Irene Nieuwenhuis, editor-in-chief, was in charge of most of the organization of the book. She said that this job was difficult when she had to tell the staff what to do. It was the job of the three section ed- itors to assign individual deadlines to their sections. Kris Rayman was layout editor, Robyn Trew, photo editor and Caitlin Ellefson, copy editor. Rayman’s favorite part of being sec- tion editor was, “Knowing my ideas are going into the book and being respected by the staff for my judgement.” Trew also liked that part of being photo editor. She felt the hardest thing about her job was, “Putting up with ev- eryone in a cramped darkroom and still producing quality photos.” “Being copy editor was great be- cause I got along with my staff so well and I never had to yell at them to get things done,” Ellefson remembered. “I guess you have to be smarter than the comput- er,” Jeff Buntgen thinks as he tries to get the printer to work. Brent Schumacher cuts negatives and gets ready to file them. During the lunch hour, Mr. Adams meets with Kris Rayman, Irene Nieuwenhuis and Caitlin Ellefson to discuss possibilities for the book. David Wight makes sure the copy matches up with his layout. Irene Nieuwenhuis explains which pictures would be best for Tammy Dush's layout. 16 Academics Jenny McKee prepares to take pictures at a basketball game. Kris Rayman, seated, left, and Stacy Rieck check to see if all senior pictures have been turned in while Marci Ryck, standing, left, and Caitlin Ellefson look at classmates’ pictures. Mary Mullin listens to a suggestion for the Spring Royalty layout. One of the copy editor’s jobs is teaching the section members how to make a deadline disk. Caitlin Ellefson. right, explains this task t to Brenda Lincoln, center, and Kelly Mercer. “This smells BAD!” Kim Krumland thinks as she mixes chem- icals in the darkroom. � Yearbook 17 aried skills taught in art he art classes taught many dif- ferent skills. Drawing 1 and II were taught by Miss Jean Detlefsen. Drawing I was an introduction to drawing exer- cises and techniques. Drawing II was a continuation of the investigation of drawing materials and techniques gain- ed from the Drawing I class. Other classes taught by Detlefsen included Lettering, Commercial Art, Painting I and II and Advanced Art. Lettering was the study of styles, methods and techniques of lettering. Old English, Roman, Gothic and script styles were studied. Commercial Art introduced the stu- dents to art related careers as well as the materials and techniques used by com- mercial artists. Painting I students learned differ- ent methods of painting using water- colors, acrylics and oils. Painting II stu- dents used the techniques and materials introduced in Painting I to develop painting skills. Advanced Art was offered to only juniors and seniors who were interested in art related careers and showed out- standing ability in the arts. There were two other teachers in- volved in teaching the art classes. They were Mrs. Leoda Davis and Miss Ruth Schlobohm. Mrs. Davis taught Printmaking and Sculpture I. The Fibers I classes was the study of experimenting with types of fibers and making them into various designs. The areas of weaving, batik, soft sculpture and stitchery were studied. Fibers II was the continuation of Fibers I in a more ad- vanced manner. Other classes taught by both Davis and Schlobohm were Pottery Ceramics I and Pottery Ceramics II. Brian Schultz works on his project in lettering class. Steve Skalak smoothes his draped pot in pottery. Rodney Zulkoski concentrates on making the base of his clay box perfectly. Roy Krings smiles as he works with his pastels in drawing while Eric Mueller observes. Shelli Smith tries to figure out what she did wrong on her stitchery project. 18 Academics Susan Katkovec creates a card in letter- ing. Kim Kruse works on her Advanced Art project. Clint Payne concentrates on getting his draped pot the way he wants it. Ginger Hasselbalch takes a short break during lettering. Tony Lindquist makes sure his mat board is lined up correctly. Smiling. Sandra Otte works hard on her card in lettering. Dan Schmit works on his combination project in Pottery I. Art 19 This Advanced Art drawing was completed by Robyn Trew. A pillow by Shelli Smith was a project in Fibers class. One of Clinton Veach’s Advanced Art projects. Imagination is used in this artwork by Wendy Sedlacek. Kim Kruse used several techniques in this pen- cil sketch. Using the coil method, JoDean I wan created this vase. 20 Academics Robin Laney illustrates her imagination in this sculpture. Jean Spall shows the nature of ducks in this pencil drawing done from a photograph. Jean Gaspers’s sculpture shows hands holding a sasparilla bottle. An example of using pastels is created in this drawing by Tony Lindquist. Randy Kelsey’s sculpture demonstrates hands breaking away from a pair of hand- cuffs. Joe Garza’s drawing shows an abstract view of a human being. Art 21 11 aspects studied in theater Theater I and II classes provided students with the opportunity to explore the many aspects of the theater arts. Theater I class studied basic play production procedures from writing a play to acting out a play. There were also units in set building, lighting, panto- mime and makeup. Theater II classes concentrated mostly on performing a one-act play for the public. Sixth Period performed “I Know I Saw Gypsies” and “Family Jew- els” while Eighth Period performed “Mike’s Case”. “I Know I Saw Gypsies” was a col- lection of prose and poetry written by many high school students. Their work discussed the good and bad times of growing up. “Family Jewels” was a farce about a rich family and its attempts to secure the family jewelry. The plot was filled with twists and turns, mistaken identi- ties and caricatures of wealthy people from all corners of the earth. Mike’s Case” was about the at- tempts of a high school student to ex- plain to the audience his daily frustra- tions of high school life. With the help of fellow students, he staged a variety of scenes which tried to show why he was so frustrated at school and at home. Students were given a choice be- tween being part of a backstage crew or part of a cast. According to Instructor Miss Ruth Schlobohm, “Performing the one-acts helped many students build up their confidence on stage and made them more comfortable in front of a large crowd.” Steve Preston explains his desire to find the fami- ly jewels to Lorie Graham. Mike Nelson and Shelli Smith. Etohhin Geier checks for loose teeth as she looks for light cues in the script. Jeannie Krueger relates to the audience her strifes of childhood. Sara Baird makes sure her makeup is perfect for opening night. Karen Lincoln recites a poem describing the good and bad times of a teenager. 22 Theater Mike Nelson presents an emotional poem. The search for the family jewels is on for Steve Preston. Lorie Graham. Shelli Smith and Millie Kuncl. Michelle Schmid fixes Lorie Gra- ham’s hair opening night. Jenny McKee and Millie Kuncl share the enjoyment of a good comic book. Tammy Kralik recites a poem. Academics 23 I nteraction key in Humanities A problem facing students when registering for a class is whether they like the teacher instructing the class. This must be a big problem for stu- dents who want to take Humanities be- cause six different teachers taught the class. According to Mr. Mark Mueller, “Humanities teaches how art, music, theater and literature have all interacted throughout history.” Throughout the year, the Humani- ties class provided many special projects for the students. One of these was a Greek festival in which the class ate Greek food, listened to Greek music and watched ancient Greek plays performed by other students in the class. Other projects included the creating of an original artwork and a visit to Josyln Art Museum. V . Mike Nelson seems perplexed by the theme of this artwork in the Josyln Art Museum. Mr. Boyd Bacon shows the Humanities class how to use the drum sound machine. Gannon Kgger sets up artwork of her own cre- ation. Amy Benton portrays Moses parting the Red Sea. John Bellum studies a painting in the Josyln gallery. 24 Academics ealth vital to independence Mr. Sanderson lectures on broken bones .,. ... then the students discuss how to set them. Cindy Rickard bandages a head wound on Brenda Hegi ... then applies a sling to her arm .. Being independent. Making your own decisions. Spending your own money. Living on your own. These are dreams of most students, but moving out to be independent also requires knowing how to care for one’s health and well-being. That’s why one should take a health class, according to Mr. Paul Sanderson, teacher. Health class offered knowledge that students can use later in life such as symptoms of diseases, mental well-be- ing, basics of first aid and relationships with other people, Sanderson said. “Each unit of study gives the stu- dent important facts about ways to pre- vent health problems in the future,” he explained. He feels the students tended to en- joy the first aid unit most because it was a hands-on unit and not just lecturing. Also, they liked the sex education unit because it was informative and practical. Sanderson said the reason health is taught in both junior and senior high is because health factors that are impor- tant to know are different at different age levels. ... and bandages cuts on her other arm ... ... as she practices saving a life. Health 25 oreign Language studies music C C r | 1 he world is getting I smaller and chances are -L students will be exposed to a variety of peoples with a variety of cultural backgrounds,” was the response given by Mr. Mel Janousek, teacher, when asked why students should take German. Students in German class learned to speak, read and write in one of four levels of German. Level I and II German classes went to the Benedictine Mission in Schuyler. Some of the students participated in the UNL Foreign Language Day. According to Spanish Teacher Mrs. Sandy Sypherd, students should take Spanish because people in the United States need to be aware of other lan- guages. She added that there are many Spanish-speaking people in the United States and it is important to be able to communicate with them. Sypherd said that she liked teaching Spanish because it incorporated the country’s music, relationship with the United States and the culture. Spanish students learned about the culture of Spanish-speaking countries as they moved through the levels. Jay Kracnow and Jeff Scoville show off their Spanish painting. Stephanie Hirschbrunner asks Chris Nansel what she thinks of her German valentine. “ I sure am tired of all these German assignments,” Robb Aerni thinks. Dan Saalfeld tries to decide whether to add any- thing to his painting. Russ Edwards puts the finishing touches on his work of art. Brenda Siffring works hard to cut a perfect heart. 26 Academics Marci Ryck and Susan Vorderstrasse. background, work on chapter tests in German.

Mr. Mel Janousek gives a German test to Jodie Matz in German IV. Foreign Language 27 Kathy Machacek and Dawn Matuszewicz display WW2 artifacts. In World History, Mr. Schnabel points out a war site on the map of Europe. Erick Brosh rams home the ball, patch and powder before firing a muzzleloader. Jason Hopkins takes a turn at firing a muzzleload- er in Great Plains History. Cory Ditter inspects a WW2 vintage rifle in U.S. History as Jenny Miller and Jim Murphy wait their turn. A student notes the detail on a trap. H istory helps avoid mistakes We are the products of past events, according to Mr. A1 Schnabel, social studies teacher. He feels social studies is important be- cause it teaches that freedom was gained from wars. “History classes help us learn facts about the past so we do not make the same mistakes in the future,” Schnabel said. Some field trips taken last year were by the Plains History classes to Mr. Gordon Steinbrook’s cabin to study game, ammunition and equipment. Also some students from the U.S. History classes were selected to go to the courthouse on County Government Day to ob- serve how the people in the departments of the county do their jobs. Two elective social studies classes were Introduc- tion to the Behavioral Sciences (IBS) and Marriage and the Family, both taught by Mr. Doug Terry. IBS was an introduction to anthropology, sociolo- gy and psychology focusing on human behavior. Marriage and the Family taught preparation for marriage, aging and death and a better understanding of the elderly and causes for divorce and suicide. Mr. Don Beckenhauer, another social studies teacher said, “Once, when John F. Kennedy was asked why we put a man on the moon, he answered simply, ‘because it is there’. Sometimes the advantage of taking a social studies class is simply because of the knowledge that is there.” 28 Academics Mr. Beckenhaucr shows a U.S. History class some WW2 ammunition. American Government students take notes during a lecture. Mark Dreifurst models his mountain man costume in U.S. History. Rod Zulkoski tests the strength of an animal trap in Great Plains History. Scott French aims at his target. Social Studies 29 ome ec classes offer variety Have you ever wondered why you should take a home ec class? According to Mrs. Mary Ann Fleis- chaker, home ec teacher, students should take a home ec class because they will find the information useful in their lives. There were five classes dealing with Home Economics. These were Basic Foods and Nutrition, Independent Liv- ing, Marriage and The Family, Housing and Interior Design and Parenthood Ed- ucation. According to Fleischaker, she liked teaching home ec because “There is a wide variety of courses and the informa- tion is relevant for use in life.” She commented that Parenthood Education was her favorite class. “The kids were interested in the in- formation, they will experience it in their lives and it will prepare them for those experiences,” she explained. Mrs. Cindy Baum, Basic Foods and Nutrition teacher, commented that she liked the content of the class she taught; it was one of her strong areas. She disliked buying all the groceries for the class because there were so many. Baum said that her goal for the year was to “make students aware of how im- portant the role of nutrition is in their diet.” Karric Adams prepares to wash dishes after mak ing spaghetti. Mindy Kobus learns the proper way to cut a chicken with help from Teacher Cindy Baum. Carolina Villarreal shouts for assistance with dry- ing and storing a cooking pan.

Home Ec 31 ndustrial Arts like art class When one thinks of Industrial Arts, he usually just thinks of anything from woods and metals to shop math and autos, but not ac- cording to Mr. Craig Post, head of that department. “Industrial Arts is just like any other type of art class. It teaches a student about art in industry and how to create that art,” ac- cording to Mr. Post. He also pointed out that more and more students are taking Industrial Arts clas- ses each year. Some of these classes are Basic Woods, Metals I and II, Cabinet Making and Autos I. Mr. Post said one of his most challenging classes was Building Trades. This class teaches students about opportunities in the busi- ness world that have to do with building and construc- tion. This department is well aware of the ninth graders moving to the high school. A special class called Intro- duction to Industrial Educa- tion will be offered to all ninth grade students. This class will be a year- long class and will include five, seven-week sessions in metals, woods, drafting, small gas engines and elec- tronics. Each session will be taught by different teachers and Mr. John Cromwell will move to the high school from junior high to teach the me- tals course in the class. “This tablesaw sure does save a lot of time,” Dan Rinkol thinks. Tom I aska sorts boards to find the straightest before he starts his project. “You want me to pose for you?” Bill Suiter asks. Todd Hanke marks his wood precisely while building a cabi- net. Jason Seipel cuts his wood to the exact length to make sure he will not have to make adjustments later. 32 Academics Mark Tremain prepares a wood project. Jamie Bartholomew uses math skills to find the dimensions of his woods project. Kelly Ohearn carefully eyes a board he will use for a cabinet. Jason Seipel and Mark Tremain use teamwork to get their project done on time. Kelly Ohearn saws a piece of plywood with precision. Industrial Arts 33 E teaches fitness for lifetime Physical Education. Why is it a mandatory course? According to Mr. Bret Thompson, sophomore PE teacher, it is mandatory because “the fitness level of youth has declined in the last 10 years.” Thompson said this was determined through tests such as the Presidential Physical Fitness Test and the Crammer Fitness Test. The overall goal of the physical educa- tion department is to improve the stu- dent’s present level of health. It accom- plishes that by increasing fitness activities. PE, being a fitness oriented class, rec- ognizes the importance of good health and can teach lifetime fitness as well as lifetime activities, Thompson added. The instructers, Karen Hoops, Thompson, Dorothy Courtier and Bart Bartholomew, meet periodically to decide which activities would be best to teach ac- cording to availability. Units such as aerobics, football, soc- cer, basketball and weight lifting were taught. Mr. Bartholomew, center near the mat. shows his class the right way to do situps. Cindy Rickard takes aim on her target putting Robin Hood to shame. Steve Skalak concentrates on building leg muscles. 34 Academics Chris Roth keeps his eye on the puck as he and Staci Podliska face-off. Jeff Weisenfluh prepares to shoot during an arch- ery unit. Mrs. Hoops helps a student get a full stretch. Determination is a key ingredient in weight lifting, according to Debbie Loeske. Physical Education 35 ix qualify to be nurse aides Nurses Internship was team- taught by Registered Nurse Kathy Phillips and Miss 11a Arrants. The class coordinated with Arrant’s Occupations class. There were six students enrolled. Students got an idea of what the nursing field is like. They learned to take blood pressure and pulse. Legal respon- sibilities were also explained and general care of hospital patients was studied. The students visited nursing homes and went to the lab at Platte College. The students could have been em- ployed by a nursing home had they wanted to. According to Arrants, at the end of the course each student became a certi- fied nurse’s aide. This course was only of- fered first semester. “They are trained to do anything a Nurse’s Aide can do,” Arrants remarked. Robin Badje entertains Mary, a patient at Columbus Manor. Kris Ruhl, Cindy Dush and Virginia Wal- ter play patients in Nurses Internship. Maisie Riley and Stephanie Johnson enjoy their day’s assignment. Robin Badje feeds Kris Ruhl who acts as a patient while Cindy Dush and Registered Nurse Kathy Phillips look on. While working at Columbus Manor, Robin Badje helps Mary drink milk. 36 Academics tudents learn to be teachers Have you ever thought about who is going to teach tomorrow’s teenagers? Will Mr. Beckenhauer still be teaching U.S. History at the ripe old age of 102, and, teaching by his side, a silver-haired Mr. An- derson along with a no-haired Mr. Bacon? It may not be as gloomy as that if the Teachers Internship program is as big a success as last year. Some of the students in- volved in the program could, someday, grace this school, new- ly constructed parts and all, with their teaching expertise. Most of these students regis- tered for Introduction to Educa- tion because they wanted to learn more about the fundamen- tals and basic techniques of teaching. Mrs. Joy Stilmock, advisor for the program, said, “The stu- dents assumed more responsi- bility in the classroom as far as planning lessons and having di- rect contact with the kids. The main goal of internship teaching is to give the students a broad- based experience in teaching.” Kris Rayman drills her students with flash cards. “Gee. her desk is as messy as my locker,’ Kim Krumland thinks. Elaine Shefcyk helps a young girl con- struct valentines. It's storytime with Student Teacher Robyn Trew. Kelly Ohearn assists one of his students with a writing assignment. Craig Kralik checks to see that a stu- dent has done her math assignment cor- rectly. This young boy is enthusiastic about his student teacher, Lorie Graham. Teacher Internship 37 lways new joy’ in Special Ed Just like any students, the students enrolled in Special Education were taught the same skills as stu- dents in the regular classes. If a class was too difficult for the student, a class struc- tured to the students’ level was taught in the Resource Room. Many of the Spe- cial Education students worked toward their English requirements in the Re- source Room. Goals for the Special Education stu- dent were the same for any student. He was taught the skills which would enable him to be a responsible, wage-earning adult who would abide by laws of society. “The progress of the students takes a longer time to see,” according to Miss Kim Korth, Special Education instruc- tor. “It’s measured in their everyday at- titudes and their class work skills,” she added. There is never a “typical day” in the Special Education classes, Miss Korth noted. “There is always a new problem - a new heartache - and new joys!” she ex- plained. Miss Kim Korth prepares to discuss a test grade with Derek Babel. Kelly Yeager tries to prove her point. Paul Bernt gets his notes ready for class. As the bell rings. Kirk Aim just makes it to class. Kandell Grokc smiles as he realizes he has worked the problem correctly. 38 Academics azz band largest in years The jazz band consisted of 15 members. According to Director Bill Bailey, the group was the largest in two years. Students must audition for the en- semble during April of the previous year and are then chosen by Bailey for the group. The jazz band performed at the girls’ and the boys’ home basketball games. It competed in three jazz festivals throughout the year and at the district music contest in April. It also performed in a spring concert and at several community conventions which included the Band Boosters Soup Supper and a Kiwanis Service Club Din- ner.

Jazz Band 39 s chool begins early for band In August the marching band began its season which lasted until Octo- ber. Band was first period but members reported at 7 a.m. every weekday morn- ing and practiced until the end of first period. At least one hour was spent out- side despite the cold weather. The band was also required to attend practices on selected Saturday mornings to prepare for competitions. The band competed at three com- petitions and performed at each home football game. The three competitions included the Columbus Marching Festi- val, Plattsmouth Marching Contest and the State Marching Band Competition in Omaha. It received a Superior-I rating for its performance at Columbus and an Excel- lent-II rating at Plattsmouth and at State. The band consisted of 64 members and each had 49 different show sets to memorize plus the music for each of the sets. The show designs were done by Band Director Bill Bailey on a computer. The music was also selected by Bailey. Drum majors for the season were John Kreifels, senior, and Becky Boucher, ju- nior. The show consisted of songs entitled “Corona,” “Slavonic Dance,” “Montine- do” and “Softly as I Leave You.” Although the band performed a half- time show at the football games, the show for the last home game was different. The band performed various United Way selec- tions in honor of the United Way’s centen- nial celebration. Two students were nominated to the McDonald’s All-American High School Band. Two students from each school in the state were nominated and two from each state were then chosen to perform in the band. The two students nominated by Bai- ley were Kevin Nolan, trumpet, and John Kreifels, tenor sax. The band is at the ready position before a competition as they go through the performance in their minds. The marching band locks into a perfect formation at the Colum- bus Marching Festival.

Bob Marching Band 41 hoir ‘develops’ potential If, by chance, a student were to be checking into school late or leaving school very early and were passing the choir room, he would get a chance to hear a group of peers hard at work trying to hit the right note with perfection. According to Concert Choir Director Boyd Bacon, “This year was a rebuilding year for choir since many good and tal- ented singers graduated last year, but these students worked hard and devel- oped beyond their potential.” Forty-eight students showed this hard work in performances. Among these were a Christmas concert, a band con- cert, community chorus and a pop con- cert. Many choir members also showed their vocal improvements by performing in the fall musical, Annie. All-state honors went to Dan Schmit, Virgil Balmer, Kevin Nolan, Beth Fairchild, Dave Nansel, Mike Nel- son, Scott Benson, Lyn Rice and Susan Walsh. Choir students were also eligible to try out for the Hastings honor choir and the Plainsman honor choir. Choir members practice a musical piece for their Christmas concert. Tony Lindquist and Mike Nelson concentrate on a new song. New lyrics seem to baffle Jody Dolezal while Scott Benson is confident of his abilities. The alto section of the choir listens intently to Mr. Boyd Bacon, director. 42 Academics iris Glee makes progress One of the major national contro- versies during the year was whether an all-men organization violated womens’ rights. There was a place for all those wom- en in school who felt left out. It was called Girls’ Glee. This music class was for girls only because so many of them wanted to be in Concert Choir but only a limited num- ber were admitted to that group. Thirty-five members worked to im- prove their vocal skills each day and, ac- cording to Mr. Boyd Bacon, director, im- prove they did. “This particular group of girls made much progress over the year. I heard things from this group that I usually don’t hear from other girls glee classes I’ve taught before,’’ according to Mr. Ba- con. The rest of the world got to hear what Mr. Bacon heard at concerts throughout the year including a Christ- mas concert, a pop concert and district competition. Michelle Schmid discovered that attending a Def I eppard concert in Omaha is more dangerous than being part of one at school. Several girls exercise their voices before starting class. Girls’ Glee polishes a song it will sing for a pop con- cert. Sheila Kush. Lisa Jarosz and Robin Badje pol- ish a new song.

Girls’ Glee 43 ew World Singers goal-oriented Ten boys and ten girls working to- gether to reach a common goal made up a small selected singing and dancing group called The New World Singers. Under the instruction of Mr. Boyd Bacon, New World performed at a vari- ety of places including elementary schools, senior citizen centers, The New World Inn, various organizations’ lun- cheons, dinners and meetings, and sever- al school concerts. “We did do a special performance at a boys’ basketball game where we sang “The Star Spangled Banner.” It was the first time something like that had been done,” Melissa Williams, member, not- ed. Each performance lasted about 20 minutes, Williams explained. Students were responsible for selec- ting their outfits and then purchased the one the group voted for. Mr. Bacon pick- ed the music they sang and the group and Bacon choreographed to the songs dur- ing class. Although much of their work was done during class, a considerable amount of time was spent out of class rehearsing and doing shows. “Being in New World helped us to be more at ease in front of people because we got so much exposure in front of a group,” Stacey Mueller, member, com- mented.

She also commented that personal counsel- ing was the most challenging and diffi- cult part. Depending on the time of year, Guidance had three main jobs. These jobs were scheduling, personal counsel- ing and working with scholarships. Guidance developed some new ways to help students. These were solving stu- dent-teacher conflicts, helping with col- lege selection and financial aid and writ- ing recommendations. They also worked with parents with student problems and college concerns. There was a new group established called Self-Help. It was to help students find better alternative solutions to social and personal problems. It could also have been a support group for those who do not get support at home. The group met once a week after school from 3:30 to 5. The members talk- ed about problems and were referred for outside help if needed. Guidance planned to set up a new self esteem program for the freshmen next year. Guidance Counselor Mrs. Carol Helms helps Paul Nieuwenhuis with a schedule change.

Faculty includes 4 new kids’ Mr. Gordon Steinbrook shows beaver sign. Nearly every student has to be the “new kid” sometime. The feeling comes whether he’s moved from a different town or made the move up to junior or senior high. Last year, four new teachers may have felt that same new kid feeling. The new teachers were Cynthia Baum, Carol Helms, Marilou Jasnoch and David Witt. Mrs. Baum, formerly from Elgin, Nebras- ka, taught Foods and English. She said at First she felt very helpless, but the students, teachers and administration helped her adjust. Ms. Helms was a new guidance counselor. She had been in Hendricks, Minnesota, teach- ing English, speech and Spanish. She was also working on her masters degree in counseling. Helms said she was overwhelmed when she arrived because she was used to a smaller school. Mrs. Jasnoch, who hailed from Oshkosh, Nebraska, taught English, Humanities and Newspaper. Jasnoch said that because she was the teacher, it didn’t make it easier to fit in. “It’s hard to blend in with the crowd when you’re in the front of the room. You can’t hide when you’re a teacher,” she explained. Mr. Witt graduated from Black Hills State College in South Dakota where he majored in mass communication and speech and minored in English. Teaching at CHS was his first, full- time job.

For those who never had the chance to meet Mr. Robert Dier- man, principal, he did not sit in an armchair with air conditioning and heat all year long. He also did not spend all of his time organizing those students who did visit him in his office. One thing Mr. Dierman had to spend a lot of time on was the budget. Everything from chalk to computers to the frogs used in biology for dissection was budgeted for. Other things that involved his time and attention included scheduling clas- ses, keeping records of report card grades and attendance on the computer, staf- fing, supervising self-studies for the North Central Association and fullfilling his role during the construction of the addition to the school. To add to his list of responsibilities, Mr. Dierman also changed his identity fifth period from a principal to a teacher of Humanities. When asked why he taught, Mr. Dierman responded, “First of all, I like to. It also gives me a chance to under- stand what teachers go through.” 86 Portraits Cooks up Lucille Wolf washes a few dishes after lun- chtime. before bread, students Corn or Peas? Salad or Fruit?

The questions are asked to be sure each stu- dent is satisfied with what is on his lunch tray. The day for a cafeteria worker can last from four or five in the morning until two or three o’clock in the afternoon. Lucille Hollman, head cook, usually went to work at 4 a.m. to do bookwork. When asked what times they had to go to work, Helen Nitz, cook, replied smiling “Mrs. Hollman usually comes about four and I’m here by 5:30 or 6. But some of the cooks come at different times between 6 and 8:30.” Several times a week, besides the lunch cooks prepared for the school, they prepared lunches for the administration and for board of education meetings. In the mornings, they prepared an optional breakfast for the students and faculty consisting of rolls and juices. Then they worked on preparing lunch for the day. They would spend a whole day pre- paring the lunch for that specific date. They had to have enough food prepared to feed at least 700 students. Kathleen Gaspers.

This group, fresh from the junior high hallways, proved to be con- scientious in every area of fashion. On the remotely opposite side of the sophomores is where the seniors could have been found. They looked good. Of course. They were seniors. They tended to choose a more carefree style with a “Who cares? We’re seniors!” attitude. A long underwear fad hit in this group. The juniors were right in the middle. Everything from every piece of clothing matching (like sophomores) to a com- fortable and relaxed look (like the sen- iors) could be found in this group. They, as the grade implies, were right in between the sophomores and the seniors. Prevalent in all groups, though dif- ferently presented, were things like fros- ted jeans, mini-skirts and an overall, more dressed-up look. Exposed knees due to ripped jeans was a trend a few students caught on to. Melissa Steulpnagel models an outfit and hair- style common to sophomores. A display at Maurice’s shows T-shirts were in. The traditional high-top shoe was a style that was always safe to resort to. Jantina Nelson models her chemistry attire.

Fashion 97 : eryone owned a car, but the major- ity of high school stu- dents regarded owner- ship as a necessity of life. Cars seen in the parking lots ranged from old clunkers to cars that were just off the lot. Students were often seen in their cars cruising Mains. A gallon of gas cost about 90 cents. Consequently, many a paycheck went to pay for gasoline. Some students used the money that was left over from paying for gas to fix up their cars. Others just left their cars the way they were and put up with them. People who did not own cars usually were lucky enough to catch rides with friends. Gary Rullo was the proud owner of this Bronco.

Ron Groene could often be seen cruising around in his Dodge. Cars 99 i'ff, hy were so many students’ dreams filled with little green pieces of pa- per? Every day, they had fantasies of owning the per- fect car, the perfect clothes and much more. In order to ful- fill these dreams, however, one thing was a necessity — MONEY. Many students found that getting lots of little green pieces of paper was simple. Get a job. Jobs come in all shapes and forms. Students worked as secretaries, mowed lawns, worked in fast food places and worked in many types of retail stores. The most common place for stu- dents to work was in a fast food joint. These restaurants flourished in Colum- bus, so there were a lot of jobs to be found in that area. One of the disadvantages of working in a fast food restaurant was that the hours were bad for some students. Be- cause the drive-throughs stayed open into the early morning hours, fast food employees had to work past midnight on some nights. Having a job also interfered with schoolwork and school activities. Work- ing long hours prevented a lot of students from getting all of their homework done. Sometimes, working meant missing an important game, dance, concert or play. Having a part-time job did have its advantages. Experience was one. Working also gave students a sense of independence. When they earned their own money, they did not have to go to Mom and Dad every time they wanted something. The best part of working was, of course, the money. It enabled students to buy things they had previously only dreamed of having.

This combination of characters came together to put on the well-known musical, “Annie.” The play was directed by Miss Ruth Schlobohm. Mr. Boyd Bacon was in charge of musical direction. “‘Annie’ was an unusual production because it defied one of the best-known laws of theater,” according to Miss Schlo- bohm. “Working with kids and dogs is sup- posed to be the hardest things to do in show business, but we did both and the play was a hit!” she exclaimed. All of the orphans, except Annie, were played by children in grades four through nine. Annie’s dog, Sandy, was Mr. Dier- man’s pet. The musical was put on three times, once for the grade schools and twice for the public. “The auditorium was packed both nights; it was great!” Gannon Egger re- membered. According to Dan Schmit, who played Daddy Warbucks, “Annie” was more than a story about a red-headed orphan and her dog. “The play was about optimism,” he explained. “Annie” took place during the Depres- sion. The red-headed orphan brought hope to everyone she met,” Schmit added. Annie is welcomed to Oliver Warbucks’s mansion by Grace Farrell. CAST Annie................... Gina Behlen Mrs. Hannigan .......

Fall Musical 109 Mystery solved n stage Everyone has heard of super sleuth teams such as Sherlock Holmes and Watson, the Hardy Boys and Scooby Doo and Shaggy, but had anyone ever heard of Alex Dennison and his cast? No one knew of that team until it solved a mystery on the CHS stage. The mystery in “Rehearsal for Murder” was who killed Alex’s fiancee, Monica. Alex Dennison, played by Dave Nansel, was a successful playwright and Monica Welles, played by Julie Sprieck, was the star of his recent play. Her murder was made to look like a suicide, but, according to Alex, “It was a murder.” A year later, Alex called the cast of the play together along with the producer and the director to an empty Broadway theater. There, he accused one of them of the murder and attempted to prove who did it by having each of the suspects act out different scenes which may or may not have been factual. Through the scenes he had written, he attempted to give each of the suspects a motive. The plot built to an exciting climax and a surprise conclusion. According to Director-Designer Ruth Schlobohm, “The play was a new challenge for us because it was originally a television script and television is a totally different media experience.” The cast of ten men and six women rehearsed for eight weeks and performed March 17 and 18.

Although they may seem like ordi- nary, everyday students doing ordinary, everyday things, nothing could be fur- ther from the truth. In fact, it is likely that “having a screw loose” is a prerequi- site to being a Thespian. The majority of Thespians, led by Miss Ruth Schlobohm, participated in numerous activities to promote the per- forming arts besides two major stage pro- ductions. They sponsored a theater workshop for the fifth and sixth grades and helped plan and execute Honors Night. They also went to see the musical “Damn Yan- kees” in Omaha and finished the year with a picnic. I)an Schmit improvises a sketch with a student at the theater workshop.

For those female students who so desire, Mr. Boyd Bacon created a girl’s ensemble. The ensemble met on Tuesday and Thursday mornings at 7:30 and re- hearsed various kinds of music such as Latin and Jazz. Nine girls volunteered for the en- semble which performed at a recital in April. Girl’s Ensemble: Front Row: Carrie Gustafson. Suzanne Rouse. Amy Benton and Lisa Eusterb- rock. Back Row: Angie Bruce.

The reason for this, according to Bill Bailey, band director, was that there was not enough interest in rifles and most other schools already had dropped their rifle squads. Flag co-captains were Paige Norton and Lisa Nelson. There were 12 members and one alternate. Many things were shared by the group such as encouragement, practices, performances, time, thoughts, disa- greements and hard work. “It takes a lot of work,” Co-Captain Lisa Nelson stated. “After a while, those 7:00 rehearsals start to get to you and you begin to wonder if you’re really accom- plishing something. “Everyone has to work together as a team to make it work and we all have to put forth our best efforts at the perfor- mances for it all to be worth it.” The flag team practiced every morn- ing at 7:00 with the marching band and participated in marching band camp during the summer where basic mar- ching techniques were taught. The season consisted of performing at all home football games and three ma- jor competitions. The flags devised their own routines for each song performing to four differ- ent tunes. They were also required to make up and learn routines to three other songs at the end of the season. They had to learn these routines in one week to per- form for the last home game where they featured songs for the United Way.

They twirled. They brought life to halftime at bas- ketball games. They were the CHS Winter Flag Corps. Winter Flags, in its second year, was a special smaller flag corp selected through tryouts. The only prerequisite was to be a member of Fall Flag Corps. The group practiced Tuesday through Friday morning at 7 in the South Gym and after school if necessary. It performed at two girls’ basketball games and two boys’ games and partici- pated in a drill team competition in Sew- ard where it received an excellent rating. Everyone put in their ideas and moves for the flag routines and dances. All of the songs were also chosen by the group and selected as music that would excite the crowd. The group forms a line during a pom pon routine. Winter Flag Corps: Lisa Nelson. .Jennie Karnik. Cindy Adams. Paige Norton. Kelli Mercer. Lori Gellerman. Stephanie Hirschbrunner and Sta- cey Mueller.

Members of DECA kept busy throughout the year with several activi- ties. To raise enough money to finance these activities, the students sold differ- ent items. Before Christmas, they sold sau- sages, cheese, candy and doorknob warmers. Before Easter, they also sold different types of candy. A scavenger hunt was another activ- ity the members could have participated in. This hunt consisted of five to six teams whose objectives were to obtain photos of their teams in certain places. The DECA students traveled a lot. Students were picked to go to Chicago in November for the Central Regional Leadership Conference. This trip con- tained workshops, dancing, sightseeing, shopping and a Chicago Bulls basketball game. During February, DECA members competed at districts in Lincoln. This was at Lincoln High where they compet- ed in role play situations and written tests. The next trip for the students was the state competition. Many students campaigned for different state offices there. DECA stands for the Distributive Education Clubs of America. This is a student organization involved with the marketing department.

Some activities Student Council participated in were setting up a computer match program, sponsoring a Spring Royalty dance and several other dances and leading various tours of the school for new students, par- ents, ninth-grade students and trying an eighth-grade lunch tour where eighth- graders visited for lunch and Student Council showed them around. “Our main concern in Student Council was to be spokespeople for stu- dents so we have some say in what happens in our school,” Todd McEl- fresh, second semester student council treasurer, explained. Officers for first semester were Brian Foldenhauer, president; Russ Ed- wards, vice-president; Gretchen Market, secretary and Irene Nieuwenhuis, trea- surer. Second semester officers were Julie Rief, president; Tara Went, vice-presi- dent; Jantina Nelson, secretary and Todd McElfresh, treasurer. Student Council: First row: Mr. Alan Griffith, sponsor.

Halls were filled with talk of kings, queens, dates, dresses, hairdo’s and decorations. Everyone showed enthusiasm dur- ing the week of Homecoming with the Classic Spirit Week. Students and teach- ers changed dress codes and wore paja- mas, togas, plaid, boxer shorts, beach at- tire and college sweatshirts. Friday brought even more excite- ment with a pep rally. Cheerleaders sur- prised football players with a skit that turned them into stars. Various groups of players were given musical instru- ments and a microphone. They were told to lip sync a song that was played. Bob Hausmann, Greg Asche, Bob Dittmer and Jim Parten won the contest when Hausmann brought down the house with an imitation of Michael Jack- son. Although the game ended in a loss to Lincoln East, 28-7, and Jack Frost nipped at the noses of players and fans, everyone remained in good spirits. During halftime, candidates were escorted onto the field. Queen candi- dates were Kristin Cecil, Nancy Czar- nick, Caitlin Ellefson, Kim Janssen, Gretchen Markel and Shelly Nielsen. King candidates were Asche, Scott Bar- tee, Hausmann, Steve Hughes, John McPhail and Bob Struebing. Jami Duranski, 1986 queen, crowned Hausmann king.

The officers bought new sweatshirts which displayed the Discoverer ship on the front. The Pep Club members decorated the Commons before athletic events. Decorating and planning for Home- coming was another duty of the club. There was a special Parent’s Night for Pep Club members. Due to the lack of participation, the future of Pep Club was uncertain.

Every child has either read or heard about the story of King Arthur and Camelot. This story stimulates the imagination of all who hear it. After learning the story, young boys dream of being kings and princes and young girls dream of being queens and princesses. Some fortunate people fulfill these dreams. In the spring, Joe Erwin and Kristin Cecil, seniors, were crowned king and queen at the Spring Royalty dance. Juniors chose Steve Scheidegger and Jantina Nelson to be their prince and princess while the sophomores chose Mitch Slusarski and Angie Krohn as their prince and prin- cess. Candidates for the royal family were nominated by teachers who considered aca- demically outstanding students and the Student Council narrowed the nominees to four or five students for each class with the student body voting for its favorite candidate. The dance lasted from 7 to 10 p.m. and Craig Andreason set up a stereo system for the music. Student Council decorated the cafeteria with stars, balloons and stream- ers. 126 Activities Prince Mitch Slusarski crowns Princess Angie Krohn. This group demonstrates modern dance.

Spring Royalty 127 Seven play attorneys, witnesses jt AH lthough a mock trial cannot be as exhilarating as a Murder She Wrote episode and the students involved in this extracurricular activity cannot be as ingenious as Perry Mason, attending these pretend trials can be en- tertaining and even, at times, intriguing. The conflicting storyline for this year’s mock trial group was about some kids who wrote a couple of controversial articles for their school newspaper. The principal of the school took out the ar- ticles before final printing because he thought they were inappropriate. Were the kids’ First and Fourteenth Amendment rights violated or did the principal have the right to take out the articles because it was a school? That was the question facing the pretend attorneys and witnesses com- posing the team. The mock trial team was given a chance to aquaint itself with the process- es of law and to get some experience in each process, but the team was eliminat- ed after three competitions in a double elimination tournament. This was not a disappointment to Mr. David Witt, sponsor of this activity, who said, “I was very happy with the en- thusiasm and hard work of the students that participated. I’m hoping for even better next year.” Mock Trial Team: Front Row: Arn Heese, Jeff Scoville and Todd McElfresh. Back row: Craig Andreason. Steve Albracht, David Wight and Coach David Witt.

In its first year, the Discoverer chap- ter of National Honor Society’s main ser- vice project was a peer tutoring program. The project involved NHS members helping their fellow students with schoolwork. According to Mrs. Joy Stilmock, sponsor, last year was a building year for the society. She hoped to keep adding service projects each year as membership and interest in NHS grows. The Discoverer chapter of National Honor Society lit up the night with its second-annual candlelighting ceremony April 14. NHS service oriented Thirty-four members were induc- ted. The main part of the induction was conducted by President Shelly Nielsen. After all the members were in- ducted, new officers were announced. Brian Brunken will be president; Erik Nielsen, vice president; Jantina Nelson, secretary and Melissa Williams, treasur- er. The ceremony was highlighted by a speech by Mayor Larry Marik. Mayor Marik talked about the future of educa- tion and the roles that NHS members would play in society. Morning meetings dragged Dawn Ashment, Bob Dittmer, Lisa Nelson.

C-Club was a group of students who earned an athletic letter. They partici- pated in several activities which includ- ed a softball game and a watermelon feed at the beginning of the year. They also attended a UNL football game and a UNL basketball game. About 30 students were involved. As a promotion of school spirit and a way to finance the clubs’ activities, the students sold sweatshirts with the logo COLUMBUS printed on them. Mr. A1 Schnabel was the group’s sponsor.

Middle Row: Jeff Buntgen, Gannon Egger and Coach David Witt. Back Row: Jeff Scoville and Brent Schumacher. Lisa Yada. Robin Hinrichs and Jeff Buntgen rehearse before the next round. Students have waited a long time for a chance to compete in speech competition, but it has been worth the wait. When Mr. David Witt was hired to organize a speech team, he knew it would not be an easy task. After all, it had been seven years since a speech team existed and getting students interested in com- petitive speaking was difficult. To organize a team, Mr. Witt re- cruited students from his speech classes, English classes and people involved in Theater. According to Mr. Witt, “It has been a tough year, but a very rewarding year for the speech team. It was difficult to re- cruit members, but we did receive 11 me- dals and competed strongly against more advanced speech teams.” The main goal for the team next year will be to increase the number of participants. A long-term goal is to de- velop a debate program. Jeff Scoville gives an impromptu speech. Jeff Buntgen performs a pantomime in competi- tion. Speech 131 1 Prom- Igoers follow dreams 1 ollow your Dreams through The Still of the Night” was the sign at the beginning of a tunnel. Around the corner and out of the tunnel, a shimmering silver moon was placed like a centerpiece within a park. A waterfall and twinkle-light stars helped create the dreamy stillness of the park-like scene. After a few songs, the class officers who chose the band, XTD, were smiling proudly at each other. Though many dreams may have been followed, as the sign suggested, there was hardly a stillness in the night with 382 people dancing throughout the evening. The juniors proudly offered the se- niors a dream “In the Still of the Night” as well as another momento to be stored with their other high school memories. Gary Hullo.

Steve Schcidegger turns to offer his help as a scaffold collapses during decorating activities. Everyone expects to hear that pre- paring for Prom takes a lot of time, money and effort. The planning started quite a few months before most people were even thinking about Prom. Money was raised through the selling of raffle tickets by the junior class. In the months closer to prom, com- mittees were organized and people began to put in extra time in working on prom. The biggest obstacle was the diffi- culty in making decisions. Last year’s juniors changed their minds a lot, Miss Detlefsen, who was in charge of helping with decorations, said. 134 Activities More than just a few people decided to “Rock Around the Clock” at the YMCA post prom party, and more than just a few people were glad they did. In fact, 345 people joined in on the combined recreation of dancing, gam- bling, participating in contests and en- joying refreshments. Due to well organized fundraising, door prizes were given away every five minutes. Thanks and recognition went to concerned and constructive parents and volunteers. Tom Schultz and Brian Bierman appear to he the only ones with energy to dance after prom. In the Silver Slipper Room, people found a good place to gamble and to have a seat for awhile.

Visions of England, Spain, France and Ger- many would pop into their heads. This dream became a reality for Kristin Cecil, Carolina Villarreal and Jill Siekmier through participation in Amer- ican Field Service (AFS). Kristin had the opportunity to go to Spain over the summer. She spent her first three weeks at a camp with other AFS students and five weeks with a fami- ly in Bilbao, Spain. While she was there she was fortunate enough to attend a bullfight. Jill Siekmier took a trip to Germany for a month. She explained her trip as, “very exciting and a great experience. It made me realize how much the U.S. is missing out on.” While Kristin and Jill were in their countries, Carolina Villarreal was pre- paring for a year-long trip to the United States, specifically, Columbus, Nebras- ka. Her host family in Columbus was Curt and Sharon Cutler, parents of Stephanie Cutler, junior. “I really like my new friends and family and almost everything is here in the U.S. The language was difficult for me. When I first came here my English was not very good, but it improved over the year,” Carolina said about her visit. Mr. Chris Dixon tries to help Carolina Vil- I larreal with her chemistry assignment. The “Three Amigos,” Kristen Cecil and her sis- ters, Marta and Susana, visit a tourist attraction in Spain.

Sunday, May 15, at Memorial sta- dium, Columbus Senior High said, goodby to its graduating seniors as they said, hello to their future. It was a day of sadness and happi- ness. The graduates were happy to be fi- nally done with school while their friends and families were sad because they knew those same graduates would be going off on their own soon. The proceedings started with the band playing the graduation march and the National Anthem. Soon after, Joe Erwin, senior class secretary, read the in- vocation followed by Robb Aerni, senior class president, with the welcome. Steve Hughes, co-vice president, brought back memories as he listed the class of 88’s accomplishments. Mrs. Cece Zorinsky, guest speaker, talked about the adversities one must overcome to be successful. Scott Bartee brought the ceremony to an end with the closing prayer.

Graduation 143 144 Sports Sports 145 Gridders miss state by 1 10 point There are many twists and turns in life. One could say life is a roll- er coaster. Just ask the football team about that. It, more than any other group of people, knows that chickens should not be counted before they’re hatched. The team won its first five games and playoff hopes were alive and boom- ing, but not for long as it lost at Home- coming. From then, it had to win its last two games to qualify for the playoffs. It could not accomplish this and missed the playoffs by one-tenth of a point. When asked about the Discoverers’ goals, Head Coach Dick Luebbe re- sponded, “The goal every year is to get each player to play to the best of his abil- ities. Hopefully, winning will be a by- product of this goal.” Going from a 3-5 season to a 7-2 mark is evidence of how team members did play well and won. The main reasons for this change were that that goal was reached, fewer mistakes on the field than ever before and the team winning close games it would have lost in previous years, ac- cording to Luebbe. Another reason for the improve- ment was, of course, the players. Five all- conference awards were awarded to Steve Hughes, Greg Asche, Bob Strueb- ing, Scott Bartee and Erik Borgmeyer. Hughes also was awarded the Bob Murray award for outstanding senior football player. Steve Hughes struggles to avoid a Pius tackle. Kerry Neumann shows the face of determination. Help!

The biggest achievement the team made was that it earned the number eight spot in the state in final ratings. This was quite a feat, according to Senior Gretchen Market. “Lots of extra work helped the team on both offense and defense,” Coach Hegi remembered. The team spent lots of time on drills that improved these skills. There was not one player who led the net crew, but a combination of players who acted as leaders for the team. Coach Hegi was proud of the under- classmen’s ability to step into positions when they were needed. Becky Boucher shows perfect form on defense be- fore passing the ball.

Volleyball 149 Golfers eighth at state Boys Golf Coach Bart Bartholo- mew looked forward to 1989 and four good returners because, ac- cording to the coach, this year’s team did not reach his expectations for various reasons. He also was looking forward to the freshmen coming up to the high school in 1989 because of easier access to the ninth grade players. Team members suffered illness throughout the season and one member was dismissed from the team. At State, the team finished eighth. Coach Bartholomew had expected to get second or third, but both the number two and three players were unable to play at the tournament. State was the toughest meet, ac- cording to the coach. “The Norfolk duals were the easiest because they just weren’t as good as we were,” he remembered. Doug Cross tees off during practice.

Do you know what these words mean? To a golfer, they are just part of the vocabulary used every day. Putting means short distance hits while lag means longer distances. The green is the area around the flag and hole and the range is getting a bag of balls and simply hitting them for practice. A normal day of practice at the golf course heard these words used quite of- ten. At the beginning of practice, the golfers would putt on the green. Then, they would work on lag putts. Coach Bart Bartholomew would then watch as they worked on the range. He would help them individually if they needed it. He made sure that swings were in order and that the girls had the correct hand action. Then, the team would usually play nine holes to finish off practice for the day. The team’s goals were to have fun and to have a good year, to place second in districts and make it to state. The golfers’ strong point was that they all got along and worked together well. The team accomplished at least one of its goals and that was to make it to state where it placed seventh.

For the first four weeks of the season during summer workouts, two run- ners made up the boys’ cross country team. Coach Ron Callan said he was fortu- nate to even have a team. When school started, however, it was easier for him to recruit boys. He ac- complished this by talking to them and through the newspaper. During the rest of the season, there were eight runners. Jay Svehla, a sophomore, was the leader of the team, according to Callan, due to his athletic ability and attitude. “Dave Kruse and Svehla improved the most throughout the season because of their desire for success along with good intensity and tolerance for pain,” Coach Callan added. With only one returning letterman, Coach Callan explained the team lacked maturity and experience. The main goal for the team was to become more capable as runners. In hope of promoting cross country, Callan planned to sponsor three road races during the summer for boys 14 through 17.

Girls’ XC requires endurance Girls’ cross country, a cardiovas- cular sport, consisted of running an average of four and a half miles each day. This took a lot of psychological strength, as well as physical endurance, team members agreed. Coach Bob Hopp had an overall goal to be, “a 500 team,” in other words, a team that finished in the middle. The girls did not accomplish this, but they did have some strong points ac- cording to Coach Hopp. “One strength, he pointed out, was the team cut five minutes off its overall time.” Along with four experienced run- ners, the team also had one new senior, one new junior and two new sophomores. Senior Kristin Cecil and Sophomore Jeri Vasina were the team leaders and ran the best times all year, according to Coach Hopp.” During the meets, the runners had to be “psyched” while attacking the hills. At the end of the race, Coach Hopp was always waiting with refreshments and words of encouragement. Coach Hopp’s motto was, “By work- ing hard, good things will happen!!” Good things did happen as all of the girls improved their times throughout the season. Girls’ Cross Country 153 Boy cagers end season 19-2, 2 The crowd lets its spirit explode with chants of “Columbus Pow- er”, the band plays the fight song and the team goes all the way to State for the first time in 13 years. The boys’ basketball team ended the season with a 19-2 record, the best in CHS history. They also won confer- ence, the Columbus Holiday Tourna- ment and Districts. Coach A1 Schnabel felt the team ac- complished a lot of goals last year. “Many things that eluded us in the past, that we couldn’t get, became reali- ties, he said proudly.” Before the season started, the team was rated tenth in the state, but after the season opener against Lincoln High, the Discoverers were boosted to number one. The team stayed in the top four the rest of the season. During the regular season, it only suffered one loss to Lincoln Northeast. In the final ratings, the Discoverers came out second behind Millard South who beat them in the state semi-finals. One thing that helped the team reach the top was unity. As Senior Joe Erwin put it, “There was a lot of competition between us which made us better players. But, be- cause we were such good friends, there wasn’t the inner turmoil among the team that often comes with competitiveness.” Chris Roth looks for an opening inside while hun- dreds of fans cheer him on in the game against Mil- lard South at State. Intensity, demonstrated by John McPhail, was a strong point that helped the team to 19 victories. Paul Schlender struggles to control the ball in the season opener with Lincoln High.

Boys’ Basketball 155 Female cage crew ‘intense’ The girls’ basketball team’s desire to do well led them to a 9-9 sea- son. Coach Rich Young said this atti- tude, along with leadership and intensi- ty, were the ingredients of a successful season for the girls. “We got tremendous leadership out of our seniors. This was based on experi- ence on the court last year and a good at- titude,” he explained. Senior leaders were Sandy Schaefer, Sandra Otte, Shelly Nielsen and Chris Messersmith. Coach Young felt Schaefer and Otte possessed a lot of talent at the guard po- sition. This talent, added to the experi- ence of being three-year starters, helped make the senior guards two of the team’s high scorers game after game. Among other victories, the girls de- fended their title in the Holiday Tourna- ment. The team made it to district finals where it was beaten by Norfolk.

Girls’ Basketball 157 Male thinclads set marks Although last season was not full of wins for the boys track team, several individual records were set. For example, Joel Schafer tied the CHS school record by clearing the high jump bar at 6-6 to win second place in the event at the Class A-4 District Track Meet. Jay Svehla set a school record time of 4:28.4 in the 3200-meter run putting him in second place at the district track meet. Also, Jay Hegemann broke the re- cord in the triple jump. The boys placed eighth in the dis- trict meet. They placed sixth in the Greater Nebraska Conference. Even though the boys did not place in the state track meet, Joel Schafer, Jay Hegemann, Kerry Neumann and Jay Svehla all atended and put forth their best efforts, according to Coach Luebbe.

The team consisted of several hard- working girls determined to set records and win meets, according to Coach Bob Hopp. The girls placed third in the Greater Nebraska Conference. Jenny Bosak earned the title there of States Best Fe- male High Hurdler. At the district track meet in Colum- bus, Discoverer girls placed second. Coach Hopp felt this was the team’s best performance of the year. He also was pleased with the efforts of each individual. Jenny Bosak, Stacy Rieck, Lisa Pi- lakoski, Tara Went and Misty Moser qualified for state. At the state meet, the team qualified for third place. Went and Bosak placed first and second respectively in the 300- meter low hurdles retaining the state ti- tle and Pilakowski registered a career- best mark in the long jump giving her a second place medal.

Girl’s Track 161 Season tribute to boy netters £ £ W t was an outstanding season, a I real tribute to the players,” JL Gary Duranski, boys tennis coach, exclaimed in assessing the season. According to Duranski, his goals were to win all of the duals and place as high as possible in the state meet. How- ever, an injury to Steve Scheidegger seemed to dampen chances for a winning season. Duranski felt the team nevertheless did as well as expected and the state championship was a bonus. ‘‘The team’s strength was good depth, smart players, competitiveness and good athletic ability” according to Duranski. The weak point was not believing in itself enough and it took some small suc- cesses for it to realize it could win the big meets, he added. A typical practice consisted of con- ditioning and refining drills. Working on backhand, forehand and serving were also included. The team won the class B state ten- nis meet. The players that went to state were John McPhail, 1 singles; Chad Hunzeker, 2 singles; Robb VanFossen, 3 singles; Chris Roth, 4 singles and Cory Hunzeker, 5 singles. The doubles teams were Chris Roth and Robb VanFossen, 1, and Eric Mueller and Cory Hunzeker, 2. The team won the 2 singles and 1 and 2 doubles divisions at state.

How- ever I was a little disappointed at the team’s third-place finish at state. “I thought that the team had a chance to do better,” Coach Doug Ter- ry commented about the girls tennis team. He went on to say that the team was not a dual team. Instead, it was more a tournament team. Coach Terry thought the team should have done better in the first two duals. Sandy Schaefer was the team leader and the most consistent player on the team finishing with a 24-7 sea- son and a second-place finish in No. 1 singles at state. ‘‘Next year will be a rebuilding year. The team will be inexperienced because we are losing six seniors. We’ll have to put together a whole new team,” Coach Terry predicted. Look for Becky Kuncl and Marie Srb to get experience and contribute most to next year’s team, he added. “I’m gonna get this one I aticia Miller thinks as she approaches the net.

Kinzer added they went into their meets with the goal of beating their own times and becoming faster swimmers from the experience. Being a young, less experienced team, the girls had a goal of swimming faster and coming closer to being able to compete with teams with more experi- ence, Coach Paul Sanderson said. Other goals were to learn and have fun. The girls were also a somewhat smaller team in numbers with 12 girls making up the group. Only five of the twelve had one or more years experience. The boys’ swim team, on the other hand, had a lot of experience. They were a larger team than most of the teams they competed with. According to Sanderson, being a team with a lot of freshmen was a strength as well as a weakness. The weakness was they were a younger team while enthusiasm was their strength. Four boys qualified for state. Mark Davidson qualified in the 200 individual medley and in the 100 butterfly while Stefen Penas was entered in diving. Da- vidson, Russ Edwards, Am Heese and Jon Bellum qualified in the 400 relay. Boys’ and Girls’ Swimming Teams: Front Row: Angie Bruce, manager. Shelley Rahrs, Kelly Behlen and Wendy Schultz.

The team was ranked second in the state as a dual team. Benson thought last year’s team was the same ability-wise as the previous year, but it had more intensity and deter- mination. The strong point of the wrestlers was that there was balance in the varsity lineup. It was a solid starting lineup, ac- cording to Benson. The weak point was the lack of var- sity experience. Only seven starters re- turned from the previous year, and six wrestlers had little experience. Benson said he felt good about the season overall. “We won two tournaments, the Kearney Invite and the Greater Nebras- ka Conference, and we finished high in others,” he commented. “The team was very competitive.” He added he would require more challenge matches among the varsity wrestlers next year.
