Remember all the turning points in our lives. As scared little first graders we faced the unknown world of school — some of us trying to be brave; others of us timid. The world spun on its axis, the years whirled by, and almost before we knew it, we were in junior High: Big kids now — we put on our Christmas programs with nervous giggles, played noon hour chess, and studied for science quizzes. Two years passed, the pages of the calendar turned, and at last we were freshmen. Ninth grade was an alien world, peopled with seniors who ignored us, juniors and sophomores who teased and tormented us. Sophomores — the days settled into a rhythmical pattern of classes and homework. We attended dances at the Legion Hall or went to the movies — the hands on the clock moved slowly. lunior year began with excitement over being upperclassmen. Our class rings added to our pride. The months sped past, filled with a myriad of activities. Looking backward . . . Seniors stand at the pinnacle of achievement waiting for graduation and the diploma that will sever their ties with high school. Senior year moves slowly despite the whir of activities, the homework, the applications that must be mailed — all the deadlines to be met. We are ready, we have been prepared for life — but once more, let us turn around and examine all the glowing, golden moments that composed our high school years. 3 Student Life Life at Lincoln in 1968-69 had an atmosphere all its own - mingled laughter, tears, work, relaxation, wonder, discovery, and romance. Turn around and remember . . . Student life waltzed or boogalooed at the dances — sock hops, prom, or homecoming. It panted in the halls after running up three flights of stairs for 6th hour class, skipped around puddles in the halls, and sometimes tripped over the buckets that were left to catch the leaking moisture. Life sped past in yellow buses — taking students to games, contests, and to and from school. Life meant work — making and modeling dresses for style shows, rehearsing, painting sets, making costumes for drama presentations, writing and acting out pep skits. Working with our friends opened new vistas. These were our lives in 1968-69 . . . Turn around and look. 5 Carnival Theme The Class of '69 worked day and night to get the gym ready for the prom. Toward the end of the evening requests for rock music were answered by the band. After a great deal of worry, the Juniors finally got the merry-go-round finished and successfully revolving. 6 lighted A revolving merry-go-round designed with ply- wood horses, a streamer canopy and elaborate lighting set the carnival atmosphere for the 1968 prom Carousel . The success of the evening was due partially to the organization of co-chairmen |udy Olson and Al Scherwinski. They selected The People's Choice to provide music to match the atmosphere. Reigning for the evening as King and Queen were Larry Draxler and Debbie Haller. Senior attendants were Susie Seidl and Doug Engel; junior attendants were Patsy Kennedy and Terry Wollerman; sophomore attendants were Patty Kotke and Kurt Hammond; freshman attendants were Cheryl Obernberger and Dennis Campbell. Junior attendants Patsy Kennedy and Terry Wollerman crowned King and Queen Larry Draxler and Debbie Haller. The music was provided by The People’s Choice from Stevens Point. 7 Cardinal Spirit Students milled around the bonfire, the night before the game. No matter how unorganized these seniors look, they somehow managed to build a float. 8 Captured Homecoming Queen Kathy Campbell followed the band at the head of the parade. The juniors captured first place with their float It'll Bee a Honey of a Victory. Our foreign exchange student, Cai Hannemann, rode in the parade as a member of the court. The whirl of Homecoming activities began on Thursday, October 17, when a snake dance consisting of band members dressed in riotous and comical costumes, passed through the town. Occasionaly the procession came to a halt and cheerleaders vigorously led the crowd in rousing chants, cheering the team on to a hoped-for victory. To conclude the evening, a Tomahawk Hatchet was burned in effigy on a 15-foot bonfire, and school spirit rose to a climax. On Friday afternoon students left school early to watch the Homecoming parade. With the school band leading the procession, the Queen, her attend- ants, the football players and the class floats wound through town. Juniors were victorious with their float construction and were awarded first prize. 9 Dance Closed With a procession of the court members around the football field, backed by the melody of the school band, the Homecoming game began on a spirited and morale-boosting note. The Cards were, unfortunately, downed by Tomahawk. Following the game, a dance was held in the gym, where music was supplied by The Coachmen. The Court, as officially presented to the school, was Kathy Campbell and |im Isham as Queen and King, Kathy Feit and Mike Greenwood as senior attendants, Gai Hannemann and Al Scherwinski as honorary attendants, Barbara Gelina and Pat Morgan as junior attendants, Stephanie Vuchetich and Bruce Bodoh as sophomore attendants and Debbie Morgan and Bill Weinberger as freshman attendants. Queen Kathy Campbell and King |im Isham meet in the coronation march. The court looks on as Senior attendant Kathy Feit straightens Queen Kathy's crown. 10 Festivities Opposites attract, and even crown bearers Tom Camp- bell and Karen Foley decided to dance. Many of the teachers attended the dance as guests of the Seniors, and even seemed to enjoy themselves though the music wasn't quite their style. Punch and cake were served by Lynn Jirschele and Peggy Schmidt. 11 Gym Invaded by Vicki Svehla acted as narrator for the show, which was based on a Cinderella theme. Escorted by Mike Peters, Martha Pritzl displayed her sewing talents in the show. Heralded by four young trumpeters, announcer Vicki Svehla was escorted to the stage, set for a Cinderella Fashion Fantasy Style Show. One hundred eight Home Economics students, supervised by Miss Auger, participated in a tableau exhibiting their talents in clothes design and con- struction. Several of the girls' mothers, and this year's AFS student, Cai Hannemann, also modeled fashions, while senior boys took the role of escorts. loan Bly, Chris Byers, and Pat Schultz added a musical flavor to the evening by presenting selections from Rogers and Hammerstein's Cinderella. Joan Bly modeled this poncho she made herself. 12 Fashions and Ghosts Ghosts appeared on the high school scene last April 1968 when the annual three act play was pre- sented. Noel Coward's Blithe Spirit concerned itself with seances, ouija boards, and winsome, devilish spirits. The play's plot revolved around the unfortunate return of Charles Condomine's dead wife, Elvira, during a seance conducted by Madame Arcati. Charles has, since Elvira's death, remarried, and Elvira jealously tries to kill him so that he can be with her forever in the afterworld. However, she makes an error, and it is Charles' second wife, Ruth, who is murdered. Madame Arcati's desperate attempts to remove Elvira from Charles' life only succeed in materializing Ruth. Charles now has two bickering spirits on his hands, and he must find a way to rid himself of both. The cast of Blithe Spirit included Gene Bodoh as Charles, Luanna Logan as Ruth, Carol Gannon as Elvira, the ghost. Family friends, Dr. and Mrs. Brad- man, were played by Ric Smetak and Faye Fremming. )udy Olson portrayed Madame Arcati, while Edith, the maid, was played by Linda Schwartz. Mrs. Nebel directed the play, and Diane Audorff served as student director. The three act play Blithe Spirit was a situation comedy, much of it concerned with discussion about the afterworld and ghosts. Christmas Called for Intense concentration can be seen on the faces of the choir as they presented a Christmas Sonata. The drum section represented the band in giving Mr. Wanless various Christmas skiing gifts. The lobby was decorated to fit the occasion. 14 Music The Choral and Band Christmas Concert held on December 15 was quite a success. The Band started the concert with overture: Fanfare and Capricio; The Minstrel Boy; Lara's Theme, from Dr. Zhivago; Three Miniature Classics; La Fiesta Mexicana, featuring a French Horn solo; Prelude to Xmas; and Them Basses. The Chorus' beginning selections were Extol the Name of Cod Our Lord, followed by the Guiding Star Carol, sung in Norwegian and How Brightly Shines the Morning Star. This featured trumpet, bassoon, and organ accompaniment. The Madrigals intervened with their presentation of Lo How A Rose; luhilate Deo, a Latin Madrigal; Pat A Pan; esus, esus Rest Your Head, (arranged by Mr. Frost) and Deck the Halls. The Chorus ended with their final numbers: We've Been a While A Wandering, and La Veine La Vieja, sung in Spanish. Mr. Frost directs the )r. High chorus in their Christmas program. Carol Shaw acted as a narrator in the Jr. High program. 15 The dead bodies of the villains graced the stage at the close of the play. Greek Tra Make-up on boys? seems to be the comment of Larry Brimstein as Mary Hard inski fixes him up for his role. Orestes, played by Ric Smetak, and his sister Electra (Cai Hannemann) join the chorus in mourning the death of their father. 16 gedy Tried Aegisthus (Dick Welty) speaks his mind to the chorus (Martha Pritzl, Chris Simon, Jean Scherwinski, Carol Heisler, and Vicki Svehla). Members of the cast put up the scenery before each performance. Electra and the chorus carry libations to honor her dead father, their murdered king. The Libation Bearers, an excerpt from Aeschylus' trilogy The House of Atreus, took the stage as this year's One Act Play. The large cast consisted of Ric Smetak, Cai Hannemann, Judy Olson, Dick Welty, Brock Miller, Vicki Svehla, Martha Pritzl, Chris Simon, leanie Scherwinski, Carol Heisler and Larry Brimstein. The cast, directed and coached by Mrs. Nebel, with Diane Audorff as student director, received A's at regional and district competitions, but were defeated at the sectional contest, where they received a B rating. 17 lean Scherwinski played the part of the go-go dancer as seen in 'Laugh-In', but found the winter weather too chilly to wear just a bikini. Vic Hyde, an excellent musician on various instruments, prided himself on being able to play four trumpets at one time. Assemblies The defeated Red Raider is carried off the floor in the Junior skit All-Star Wrestling . The sophomores crowned Mike Soper Mr. Basketball during their pep skit. 18 Dr. Gaverluk entertained the school with his slides concerning technical advances in science. During one of the pep assemblies, the cheerleaders and mascot presented the basketball team with a cake. Entertained Students The freshman skit, concerned with the News, Weather, and Sports, breaks for a commercial. High from the top of an LSD trip in beautiful downtown Cayuga, we bring you Rovan and Marvin's Win-In. With these stirring words, the annual pep skit contest to show their school spirit in lively, entertaining plays. The seniors began this contest with a skit which was amazingly similar to the Laugh-In series on television. The juniors followed the television motif with their skit about All-Star Wrestling. The sophomores had a Mr. Basketball contest and the freshman skit was a news, weather and sports report. A toss of the coin decided the winner of the trophy, as the seniors and freshmen came out in a tie. The coin chose the younger, and Class President Tom Cehrman accepted the award for the freshmen. Other assemblies included a discussion on the advances made in electrical science presented by Dr. Emil Gaverluk, and a musical presentation by Mr. Vic Hyde. 19 Informal Dances ¥ The King and Queen led the first dance after the coronation. Joan Bly and Joe Campbell seem to be enjoying them- selves, while Vicki Svehla looks on in the background. King Dick Welty and Queen Linda Novitzke were crowned by Bill Tomczak and Pat Schultz. Sadie Hawkins, on November 8, provided a chance for the girls to take that special guy out and treat him to a night on the town — all expenses paid. Reigning as King and Queen for the evening were Linda Novitzke and Dick Welty, who disguised them- selves as paupers. Attendants sporting way-out hippie costumes were Pat Schultz and Bill Tomczak. Joan Bly and |oe Campbell received the award for the best dressed couple, being the Campbell Soup Kids, while Beth Jeske and )udy Olson split the prize for corsage with their candy-covered-apple creation. Mr. Ross did the judging and awarded the prize — a can of beans. Frequently Attended The Outcasts , a band made up of local students, performed at one of the school dances. Tom Greenwood as well as many other students en- joyed themselves at the dances held after the games. Student life is seen in the halls and on the faces of the students from September 1 to May 28. In the fall nightlife is blown up with class floats and home- coming festivities. As winter turns its corner the one act play, debate and basketball come into the lime- light. As soon as the snow flies, the school creaks with snowmobiling. With spring fever prom thumps in the hearts of the students. To add attraction to the year, birthday celebrations can be seen in the cafeteria. 4 21 Various Activities Occ In mid-October two students from Mr. Ross's senior English classes vowed that although they lived in the push-button society of the 20th century, they could withstand the elements of nature like the ancient cave dwellers and they set out to prove their point Dan Hoffman and Al Scherwinski made a bet with Mr. Ross that they could live, with few modern con- veniences and a budget of one dollar, in a tent for one week. Surprisingly enough, the boys won the wager. With the aid of sleeping bags, matches, a soup bone, and shotguns, Al and Dan camped twelve miles from town, hunting partridge and digging potatoes so as not to die from starvation! By the end of their adventure, Dan had lost fifteen pounds while Al had lost thirteen pounds. Dan Hoffman and Al Scherwinski posed for the pho- tographer at their campsite, showing the weapons they used to obtain food. The boys prepared all their meals at the campsite, Wary campers, the boys were always ready in case except for those they earned working in the kitchen at they had some wild visitors in the evening, school. 22 upied Time Each month, an artist from the advanced art class displayed his or her work in the Park Falls Herald. This Herald photo shows Betty Borgen and her work. Common friends provided Tom Pepper and Marge Hilgart, a cake on their mutual birthday. Many other activities kept Lincoln High School students busy. Artistically inclined students had the opportunity to show their talents to the town. The Park Falls Herald printed a picture of the student and his work each month. This gave art students something to work for. This winter, the community sponsored the state snowmobile contest. Many of the Lincoln High School students entered the race — some even placing in their classes. Noon recreation in the gym, plus a noon study hall in the cafeteria also gave the students some activities during the school day. Many local students showed their racing skills at the State Snowmobile Derby held here in Park Falls. Seen here are Bill Jeske, Mike Boushon, and Mike Grassel. 23 Academics and Faculty Schoolwork — the left-over debris of a term paper in the making scattered over the floor of a bedroom, the thick notebooks with the main points of a lecture carefully preserved, the stacks of heavy tomes we carry home each night. Academics in the year 1968-69 meant many late nights and many prayed-through tests. We worked hard in our classes, and learned all there was to learn — from art to upholstery. Skills we would use in college or in work were learned and valued ... we complained, griped, and cast anxious eyes ahead to the next test, term paper, or oral report. Cuided through the maze of education by an eager and experienced faculty, we groped our way through the jungle of our ignorance to the clearing of understanding. Academics and hard work . . . this was an important part of our lives in 1968-69. Turn around and remember. Knowledge Which Ca Business Education is a course designed to train and prepare students for office occupations. It in- volves two years of typewriting, with the second year featuring clerical training such as filing, duplication, and operation of the basic office machines. The stenographer program offers two years of shorthand and transcription. Students may use avail- able tape recorders and record players for added practice. Five city firms cooperate with the school in the on-the-job training program, which is designed to acquaint stenographers with office procedures. This year first year typing students were taught numbers first because of the growing use of IBM machines which use numbers rather than letters. Bookkeeping and Consumer Economics are also offered by the Business Ed. department. Faculty Miss Lois Auger taught six Home Ec. classes this year as well as advising the Home Ec. Club and the freshman class. The Student Work program kept Mrs. Jean Graf busy this year. Typing and Shorthand were also under her direction. Mr. Richard Ludwig taught Bookkeeping, Typing, and Consumer Economics. He also served as faculty advisor for Torch. Typing II students learned to use machines found in business offices as Donna Draxler demonstrates. 26 n Always Be Applied Ski Spree was the theme of Vicki's corner during a merchandising unit. Tough pancakes, raw cake, and burnt rolls may not be a very auspicious start for the girls in Home Economics, but practice (usually) makes perfect. The first semester in some Home Ec. classes was spent in making dresses, suits, and other wearing apparel. Home Ec. Ill and IV students had one month of sewing. The rest of the year was spent in studying foods and nutrition, meal preparation (for large numbers) and an area of the class's choice. This year, senior students had courses in Home Management, Merchandising, and Child Care. During the merchandising unit, the girls set up store window displays in the Home Ec. room. A Red Cross course in Home Nursing was offered this year for both Home Ec. Ill and IV students Home Ec pupils deal daily with danger. Watch out for the ladder, Joan! First year students prove that they can make a meal fit for a king (or a teacher). . . . the Hum of a Saw Elementary drafting and some power tools were used by Shop I pupils to make lamps, gun racks, and tip-ups. These students also worked with metal and plastic to produce letter holders, paperweights, and knives. The advanced students in Shop II applied their knowledge to making serving trays, canoe paddles, bowls, and tables. Welding with arc and gas welders, and working with the metal lathe were some of the activities of third-year shop students, while fourth-year students applied their mathematical knowledge to drafting. New tools including a spindle sander, power hack saw and a metal band saw were added to the shop department this year. Faculty The head advisor for (he junior class this year was Mr. Bruce Frederick, who is better known for instructing his classes in shop and drafting. Many excellent products are made in Lincoln's In- dustrial Arts classes. Here John Kundinger applies the necessary touches to his shop project. 28 . . . the of an Axe Ring Drafting is complicated, especially if you’re left- handed, like Mike Boyd. Scalpel, please. Taking apart a chain saw proved to be a delicate operation for the boys in Timber Manage- ment. Forest management, land conservation, and surveying were studied by pupils in Timber Manage- ment this year. During its second year in existence, the class also learned how to fix small engines and use chain saws, pruning saws, planting bars, and tree marking equipment. When weather permitted, the boys went out into the woods where they pruned trees, differentiated profitable from unprofitable trees, and practiced various planting and cutting techniques. During the winter months, talks were given by various experts in forestry. Herb Post, DNR, lectured on fire suppression, Gerald Spoerl addressed the class about the harvesting of timber, and speeches were given by various representatives of chain saw com- panies on the proper care of this equipment. 29 In Ourselves Are Oil paintings, drawings, sculptures, and pottery brightened up the halls at Lincoln this year. Student Picassos and da Vincis often had opportunities to display their work. Artist of the Week'' was a title which was re- ceived by many able (and active) art students. Pupils so honored had some of their productions displayed at Lincoln. Once a month the artist of the month was pictured with his creations, in the Park Falls Herald. During the year, art classes took field trips where students made sketches of various objects which gave them inspiration. Some art students traveled to Minneapolis where they toured several art galleries and museums, including the Minneapolis Art Institute and the Walker Art Center. Medias were as varied as the finished products. Charcoal, clay, pastels, crayons, and water paints were used by the students in learning how to express themselves creatively. Steph Vuchetich finds water color an excellent media for creating a painting of a tree. Faculty Mr. Donald lohnson kept the neatest desk of any art teacher this year. He also supervised art trips and served as senior advisor to the freshman class. Mr. Nordstrom, a cadet teacher, assisted Mr. Johnson by teaching several art classes during the second semester. It takes skillful hands to create pottery from a lump of clay. 30 Our Creations Talent is shown in many ways. Vicki demonstrates her talent on the beam. Gymnastics, in its second year at Lincoln High was offered to girls as an alternative to regular Phy. Ed. The girls involved in the class met every first hour for a period of strenuous exercise which resulted in per- formances which were viewed by the public.- Shows were presented by the girls at three half- time shows during the basketball season. The per- formers demonstrated various routines on the uneven parallel bars, the balance beam, and in free exercise. During the summers of '68 and '69, students at- tended workshops at Gustavous Adolphus College in St. Peter, Minnesota. A workshop was held for gym- nasts at Lincoln this year. Some people make the hardest things seem easy. An exercise in gymnastics class provides a study in symmetries. 31 Sports Develop Kris Weborg always finds it hard to make a strike with her fingers crossed. Faculty Girls' Phy Ed. instructor, Mrs. Betteanne Frokjer, directed GAA, GBA, and cheerleading, and gymnastics. The Boys' Phy. Ed. teacher, Mr. Larry Hilgendorf, coached the Cardinal basketball team, directed intramurals and Letterman's Club. Geri Heisler demonstrates how to make a basket dur- ing second hour Phy Ed. 32 the Complete Person The Physical Education department provided a welcome opportunity for Lincoln High students to stretch their legs, build muscles, or trim waistlines. Sportsmanship and team spirit were also stressed by Phy. Ed. classes. Efficiency tests gave each student an opportunity to chart his or her physical progress during the year. During the course of the school year, both boys and girls participated in sports such as volleyball, archery, recreational sports (badminton and table tennis), softball and track. Junior girls, for the first year were given a unit in rhythmical gymnastics. In this unit, the girls jumped ropes to music and made up various routines. The trampoline was a test of agility. Pat Morgan shows the Torch photographer that he knows the ropes. 33 Finding Life Around an A piercing scream echoing through Lincoln's halls did not necessarily mean a tragic disaster, this year, in one case it only meant that an overly en- thusiastic Biology student was being confronted by a large crayfish. In addition to disecting earthworms, frogs, and crabs, the students entered the world of the microscope. While studying a unit on sound. Science students had a chance to display their musical talents. Pupils played tubas, flutes, and other instruments to demon- strate various sounds and pitches. Unknowns seldom stayed unknown in the LHS Chemistry lab, but a lucky student was one who could identify two mysterious chemicals in one lab session. A highlight of the year was a trip to the paper mill. During the trip, the students saw the various steps involved in the manufacture of paper. During a tour of the mill, students observe paper in the making. Biology students learned to use the tools of the scientists. 34 5 Within Us Faculty Mr. Roger Reas, sophomore class advisor, taught General Science and Chemistry and directed the Science Club. Mr. James Van Keuren taught Biology, General Science and Timber Management, while serving as head sophomore class advisor. Junior High Science teacher, Mr. Robert Dural, was in charge of 7th and 8th grade intramurals and athletics. —n V I Mr. Reas illuminates an example in a General Science class. Experiments seemed to be the best part of a Chemistry class. Here Joe Campbell cooks up something in the laboratory. 35 Mat hemat ic s Faculty Sometimes you can't be sure even when you double- Mr. Orwell Soper, math teacher, advised the senior check! class and the Student Union. Geometry teacher, Mr. Virgil King advised the fresh- men and taught Drivers Ed. During her first year at Lincoln, Mrs. Mary Herzig taught three Algebra classes. Mr. Frank Campbell taught Junior High math. The third hour Geometry class listens intently as Mr. King explains a proof. 36 . . . the Key to Science junior High students learned how to make geo- metrical figures by taking out a needle and thread and doing their sewing. By making figures with thread, they learned that a circle can be made with straight lines. Additional knowledge, in mathematical principles, was received by students in General Math and Algebra. Geometry students were introduced to theorems, proofs, and postulates. This year, they each wrote a proof on transparent paper, presented it on the over- head projector and explained it to the class. Going to the board seemed to be an every day occurance in Math III, while in Math IV, students made three dimensional figures out of paper. Physics students viewed movies, studied the laser, oscillascope and learned how to use adding machines instead of counting on their toes. Physics students matched their wits against the mechanics of an adding machine. Although the boys in Math IV never made paper dolls, they applied themselves diligently to the making of various other paper objects. 37 The Universal Top Row: R. Abel, R. Pripps, T. Palecek, B.

The beat of a drum and the crash of cymbals heralded the approach of the LHS band. 38 Music Faculty Lincoln High band director, Mr. Edward Wanless, served as a senior advisor. Mr. Wanless also gave individual and sectional lessons to junior and senior band members. The band's majorettes this year were loan Bly, Marge Hilgart, Ruth Kaley, Kris Neeck, Jean Panke, and Cindy Shaw. An invitation to the Red River Exposition in Canada provided the impetus for much of the band's activity this year. To raise money for this trip, the band members sold candy and held other money making projects. The Band Parents Organization was formed to aid the fund raising activity. Hours of practice marching resulted in a first place trophy won at the Medford Mink Festival. The band also participated in the Eau Claire homecoming. Phillips was the site of the annual Music Festival and Solo-Ensemble contest this year. LHS students were in action there on April 12 and May 10. At home, the band presented three concerts, marched in local parades, and played at commence- ment, as well as entertaining with half-time shows during the football season. Band officers for '68-'69 were: Larry Nordall, president; Rex Flygt, vice-president; Diane Isham, secretary, and jane Mockler and loan Bly, librarians. Mr. Wanless tunes the cornets during a junior band rehearsal. 39 Every Song is Lincoln High's Chorus opened the year with a short concert held for the PTA on November 4. In December, the Mixed Chorus and Girl's Chorus par- ticipated in the Christmas Concert. A new touch was added by encouraging the audience to sing-a-long on familiar carols. A highlight of the year was an exchange concert with Phillips High School on March 26. The choir traveled there and entertained during a school assembly. The newly organized Boy's Chorus sang several songs and the two schools' choirs combined their talents on several numbers. Individual students sang at the annual District Solo and Ensemble contest on April 12. The Music Festival, held on May 10 at Phillips offered the chorus another opportunity to display their vocal competence. The Spring Concert, on April 24, completed the year's performances at Park Falls. Officers elected for the school year were: Robert Kazan, president; Cindy Kroepel, .vice-president; and Susan Hogue, secretary. Mr. Frost accompanies a boy's quartet in preparation for competition. Faculty In addition to directing Mixed Chorus, Girl's Chorus, and Boy's Chorus, Mr. Richard Frost taught junior high General Music and Chorus. Fie also gave individual lessons to his students and served as an advisor to the lunior Class. Practice sessions were often after school as in the case of Madrigals. 40 a Work of Art Bottom Row: Diane Putnam, Paula Shanks, Pat Skawinski, Elizabeth Hodun, Diane Netzel, Pam Woldt, Cheryl Hilgart, Tony Balzer, Jill Skotterud.

Learning to Communic The hippies roaming Lincoln's halls were not visitors from Sunset Strip, they were members of a Senior English play cast. These students wrote and directed their own plays and movies. Dan Hoffman and Al Scherwinski were hippies of a different sort. They lived in the woods for a week on fifty cents to win a bet that originated in an English class. How good a teacher would you make? This question was answered by college-bound juniors when they were given two days in which to instruct their classmates. Through writing journals the Sophomores learned methods of self expression. In these journals they could write essays, poems, or whatever they wished. The Freshmen were given a glimpse into the life of. their instructor when he showed slides of his life during the war. This year, for the first time, semester courses were given in Advanced Literature and journalism, to any interested juniors and Seniors. In Advanced Lit. students studied great works of Literature, and in journalism, pupils learned all the work that goes into a newspaper. Student teacher Scott Rickert instructs his pupils about an American author. Louanna Logan, Debbie LaVoie and Ginger Schwartz present their Advanced Lit. seminar. 42 ate with Others Faculty The head advisor of the Senior Class was Mr. Richard Ross, senior English teacher, who also served as Athletic Director and forensic coach. Mr. Carly Carlson, who taught the class of 70, coached forensics and athletics. Sophomore English instructor, Mrs. Antoinette Nebel, also taught a class in Advanced Literature and Journalism. She also coached forensics and drama. In addition to teaching his freshmen English pupils, Mr. Joseph Budzak served as the Kardnal advisor. The junior high paper, forensics, and drama were supervised by Mrs. Patricia Johnson, 7th and 8th grade teacher. The library, an important study center, was kept in smooth working condition by Mrs. Sylvia Christopherson, who was in charge of the forensic team this year. Mr. Orlowski, a cadet teacher from Superior, instructed several senior English classes during the second semester. Living in the woods not only won a bet, it proved to be an excellent method of weight control. Sophomores studied a variety of plays including Julius Caesar. 43 Eraser Relays were a new method of learning tacts in Geography and Civics. These races to the blackboard demanded a quick recall of facts for the freshmen. Some Civics classes kept current event scrapbooks and held panel discussions. The Sophomore history room became a temporary art gallery during a unit on the Renaissance. Another feature of the classes were cram sessions which were held after school to prepare for tests. Current events were brought close to home when Mike Van Keuren, on leave from Vietnam showed slides of that country to the American History classes. American Problems classes were spiced up by stories about other teens, problems, and aspects of American life. Ha ben Sie Kaugummi' may be the first sentence that a German student learns. (That is if he's addicted to gum chewing.) However, that sentence was not on the flash-cards that the students used this year. In addition to verb flash cards, German III students were given an assignment in which they translated a news article from English to German. Another assignment was a book report written in Deutsch. The advanced students celebrated several German holidays including Shrove Tuesday, which is the day before Ash Wednesday. A Freshman civics panel proceeds under the watchful eyes of Mr. Knutson. Our World Faculty AFS kept Mr. John MacDonald, American Problems teacher, busy again this year. In addition to coaching the wrestlers, Mr. Gilbert Stoeberl advised the Lettermens Club and instructed juniors in American History. Mr. Michael Herzig, who organized the new Chess Club, also advised a four-student team which competed on a channel 6 television program, High Q . Coaching debate was another of the World and American History teacher's responsibilities. German and Civics were taught by Mr. George Warshall, who was in charge of German Club and debate. Mr. Keith Mortenson, who taught Junior High Civics and Geography, also coached the 7th and 8th athletics. Mr. Johnson, a cadet teacher from Superior, assisted Mr. Stoeberl during the first semester. 44 . . . Past and Present Arabs vs. Israelis. Junior students take sides on the Mideast crisis. Sitting in a circle for German proved to be excellent for dialogue drills. Books, magazines, and pictures which are not readily available in classrooms were discovered in the library by Freshmen Civics students. 45 Deciding What Is Best MR. QUALLEY: Superintendent of Schools. MISS JEHN: Secretary to Superintendent. MR. FROKJER: Principal. MRS. HEISLER: Secretary to Principal. Mr. Knutson, Lincoln guidance counselor, taught two civics classes, coached football, and advised the Lettermen and sophomores. His duties as guidance counselor, included giving tests, such as scholarship tests and achievement tests. He also supplied information on college and courses that would help a student in the field of his choice.

Due no doubt to the strenuous mental exercise of studying for eight hours, students often forget where they last placed that book, or shoe, or folder. It's part of the janitor's job to deal with these for- gotten items, as well as many other things that we take for granted during the course of a school day. The people on this page do those things that we often don't notice — things like clean halls, emptied waste baskets, fresh towels after a cold shower, clean black- boards, hot lunches and rides to school on winter days.

Organizations — a large portion of our lives at LHS. Trips to Powderhorn, plays and basketball tourna- ments, practices, advertising our club's dance, selling pop at home games — these consumed our time and our energy. Organizations tested our abilities — vocalizing, declaiming, writing, and getting along with other people. We joined enthusiastically, went to meetings diligently, paid dues, and shared the fun of working together. Turn around and remember . . . Organizations AFS Forged On The AFS Club, under the capable leadership of Kathy Campbell has forged ahead with enthusiasm. Money raising projects for the year have taken shape in the form of a candy sale, the Sadie Hawkins dance, and a blanket drive. The main money-making project of the year was soliciting for cable TV hook- ups in the area, with the co-operation of the Northern Telecable Service. The AFS Club has worked harder this year to earn more money as it is hoping to make this a real exchange program by sending a student abroad as well as bringing one here. There were pennies from heaven for the AFS Club when it conducted a blanket drive at the Jan. 24th basket- ball game.

G i Gai Hannemann, this year's American Field Service Student from down under in Melbourne, Australia, has spent a busy twelve months in our school and community gaining the habits and ideals of its people. Gai comes from a family of six, having one brother, two sisters, and her parents. She lives in the capital of her state, which has a population of Vh million, so she finds Park Falls quite a change with its small and personal atmosphere. At home she attends an all girl private school, consequently she found co-educational schooling quite a (pleasant?) change. Her year has been a mixture of various activities. Along with a full academic schedule, she has joined various extra-curricular clubs. Through this, she has gotten to know how an American school really func- tions in all phases of work and entertainment. By living with the Forest K. Shaw family, and by learning along with American students, Gai feels that her experiences here have been more than re- warding. She feels that perhaps the goal of the AFS organization may be even one step closer to its complete accomplishment. The ultimate goal, al- though at times it may seem far reaching is: WALK TOGETHER, TALK TOGETHER, O YE PEOPLES OF THE EARTH; THEN, AND ONLY THEN, SHALL YE HAVE PEACE. After Gai received her presents, Nita could be heard to say as she rode out of sight, All in a day's work. 51 Drama Stole Once again the Drama Club with their one act play. The Libation Bearers”, emerged victorious from the Lakeland Conference contest to go on to District competition at Ondassogon. From there they went to the Sectional contest at Eau Claire where they received a B rating. The scenery was on a much grander scale this year. Encouraged by their success with the one-act they enthusiastically went ahead with the three-act play, love's Labor's Lost. On the recreational and educational side, the Drama Club journeyed to Northland College in Ash- land on March 8 to see the play, Skin of Our Teeth. Under the skillful leadership of Mrs. Nebel, the club functioned smoothly. Its elected officers for the year were President, Dick Welty; Vice-President, Ric Smetak; and Secretary-Treasurer, Cindy Kroepel.

Dick Welty, Dan Stangle, Dan Hoffman, and Jim Johnson are shown during one of their many rehearsals for the 3-act play — Love's Labor's Lost. 53 Forensics Spoke Up This year, the forensic team was chosen at local contests, judged by Lincoln High School English teachers. Mrs. Christopherson acted as head of the program. The team met its first competition at Mosinee. between the schools in our conference. Our team placed third behind Lakeland and Mosinee. Only students who received A ratings were allowed to continue to the District meet at Ashland. Those students who competed at Northland College were: joanne Gehring in Interpretive Reading of Poetry, Jeannette Gehring in Significant Speech, Gai Hannemann in Interpretive Reading of Poetry, Rex Flygt in Extemporaneous Speaking, and the Play Acting group consisting of Judy Olson, janet Peterson, and Rit Smetak. All of these students continued on to state competition at Madison except for the Play Acting group who received a B” rating at Ashland.

Top Row: Re Flygt, Dan Stangle, Mr. Warshall. Debate at Lincoln in 1968 - '69 was an exciting and educationally rewarding experience for those students who participated. Members of the team, coached by Mr. Warshall and Mr. Herzig, were: Joanne Gehring, Mary Hardzinski, Rex Flygt, Dan Stangle, Doug Flygt, lohn Gehring, Lois Bly, Jeannette Gehring, Lynn Draxler, Diane Audorff, Brock Miller, and Doug Van Patten. The debate season started with a November clinic to discuss the year's topic — Resolved: The United States Should Establish a System of Compulsory Service for and by All Citizens. During the season they attended practice debates in Eau Claire, Merrill, and River Falls. The Varsity team, composed of Rex Flygt and Dan Stangle, negative; and Jeanne Gehring and Mary Hardzinski, affirmative, competed in the Eau Claire District tournament. Four wins and losses there qualified them for the Northern Sectional, contest. A 5-1 record at this meet brought them to state where they finished 15th with a 1-5 record. Dan Stangle emphasized his opinions on compulsory service in a practice session. 55 Homemakers Were Top Row: Middle Row: Bottom Row: Lynn Hinton, Pat Grassel, Jan Steiner, Nancy Hammond, Chris Schmidt, Shirley Olson, Terry Campbell, Elizabeth Hodun, Miss Auger.

Jan Hardginski, Ruth Hintz, Pat Roller, Sue Schultz, Debbie Morgan, Lorraine Prescott, Mary Pauser. The Home Economics Club began a successful year by presenting Fashion Fantasy, their annual style show on November 18. The show was based on the story of Cinderella with various students sing- ing musical selections from the play as part of the entertainment. This year, instead of having the usual bake sales, club members sold Swipe, a cleaning product which really gets down to the nitty-gritty of housekeeping. Girls sporting I Like Swipe buttons confused many non-members. They also enjoyed the outdoors when they went on a skiing trip to Mount Telemark. There were a few bruises and cuts but most members came home wishing they had just one more hour left to ski. Miss Auger who advised the club this year, was aided by Vicki Svehla, President; Mary Pauser, Vice- President; Linda Novitzke, Secretary; and Pat Koller, Treasurer. 56 Busy at Lincoln Each month members were asked to set up a mer- chandising display in one corner of the home-ec. room. Karen Berg is seen dressing a dummy. Linda Novitzke refinished an old spinning wheel as one of her projects. 57 On-the-Job Invaded Local Businesses Each year, certain local businesses provide openings in their offices for students who have had advanced business courses. This not only helps the businesses by providing an extra worker, but gives the student a chance to learn about working in an office situation. The Forestry Department allowed Marilyn Peter- son to work for them. Janet Peterson worked at Thorp Finance, Pat Kovarik worked at the St. Croix factory office, and Sue Hogue worked at the State Bank. Patsy Kennedy and Carol Teeters qualified for this experience, but job conflicts prevented them from taking part.

Mrs. Christopherson offered the library aides an additional chance to learn about the library while gaining a half credit toward graduation requirements. A course acquainting the students with the various aspects of reference work was an elective subject for all of the library aides. Assignments were handed in periodically and each aide was graded according to her efficiency and accuracy. In addition to this course, the aides helped Mrs. Christopherson run an efficient library during their study halls. 59 Scientific Achievements Gained Back Row: Randy Frokjer, Cary Frokjer, Quentin Hoth, Jeff Wartgow, Greg Herbst, Tom Thompson. Bottom Row: Victor Bukolt, Carl Hardzinski, Rick Schmidt, Mike Boushon, Doug VanPatten, David Dryer, Bill Tomczak. Students worked on various projects at each science club meeting. Tom Thompson explored the mystery of electrical charges. 60 The Science Club this year, supervised by Mr. Reas, strove toward a new goal. This club project was the establishment of an amateur radio station which would be an interesting acquisition for the club. Science Club also has a variety of other projects such as the use of the oscilloscope, the manufacture of rayon, and the study of astronomy. Club officers this year were Jerry Hoth, President; Tom Thompson, Secretary-Treasurer. German Club Progressed This year the German Club, under the direction of Mr. Warshall, chose Eva Kaiser as their President. Eva formerly lived in Germany and her experiences and knowledge of the language added a new dimension to the organization. Dorothy Prickril acted as Vice President and Lynn jirschele held the double office of Secretary-Treasurer. The club sold pop at games and sponsored a dance to earn money for awards. There was a German contest at Wausau, Wisconsin, open to any German student, which members of the club attended. Joanne Gehring and Mr. Warshall discussed a difficult translation problem.

What was known as the Student Union became known as the Student Council under the newly adopt- ed constitution. The advisor this year was Mr. Herzig, and Dan Stangle led the students as President. Each class had five representatives. The council met twice a month and held special meetings during noon hours. Monthly meetings were held in either the English or Social Studies classes to inform students what their council had done in previous meetings. The first project the council sponsored was a contest to promote individual clubs and students to enter a decorated car in the Homecoming Parade. They also adopted resolutions concerning next year's Homecoming celebration. Starting with the '69 - '70 school term, the dance will be held on the Saturday night following the Friday night game. A student day was planned in which students took over the running of the school, with new amendments from former years. The council also voted for the installation of a student dairy machine. Jeff Wartgow and Ric Smetak were members of the council who worked on such projects as a student handbook. 62 Power and Intellect This picture, taken during a broadcast, shows our High Q team consisting of Joe Campbell, Diane Audorff, Rex Flygt, and Doug Flygt. WDSM T.V., Channel 6, Duluth, Minnesota, pro- duced High Q, a high school version of NBC's College Bowl. Area schools were invited to enter a team for competition. Each team could appear three times if they continued to win. The Lincoln High School team consisted of two seniors - Rex Flygt and Diane Audorff, one junior - Joe Campbell, and one sophomore - Doug Flygt. Rex Flygt acted as captain. The team made an excellent showing, defeating Silver Bay, Minnesota 215 to 65, and Greenway High School, Coleraine, Minnesota 220 to 90, and finally devastated Cook County High School, Grand Marais, Minnesota 225 to 30. Doug Flygt was extremely quick in catching toss-up questions concerning history. 63 Lettermen Showed Strength Top Row: Dick Welty, Mike Peters, Larry Draxler, Steve Kundinger, Jim Abel, Mike Greenwood, Tom Thompson, Larry Palecek.

In order to raise money for awards, the Lettermen entered a car in the Student Council Homecoming contest, sold popcorn at all the athletic events, and sponsored a car wash. The Pep Club took it upon themselves to promote spirit in the student body. Vicki Voight was elected President, Gail Gustafson was Vice President, Betsy laeger was Treasurer, and the Secretary was Peg Schmidt.

Have you finished that copy I asked for? What do you mean you lost the negatives? How many days until the deadline? These were common questions floating around the room every Tuesday night when the Torch staff had their meetings. Mr. Ludwig directed the staff, occasionally reminding them of the seriousness of the situation. Judy Olson, editor-in-chief spent three of the first meetings instructing the staff members in the fine points of producing a hopefully All American Yearbook. Section editors were chosen from the staff by the Editor-in-Chief, the Co-Editor, Luanna Logan, and Mr. Ludwig. Ardis Audorff con- trolled the Academics Faculty section, Jane Mockler edited the Senior section. The Student-Life section was headed by Ric Smetak, Jean Panke organized the Organization's section, and Rex Flygt was in charge of Athletics. Luanna Logan, as the regular Co-Edftor took charge of the under-classmen and Angie Dillon, next year's Co-Editor handled advertisements, Karen Berg acted as Business Manager and Diane Audorff was chosen Copy Editor. 68 Year’s Events The photographers for the '68 - '69 school year were |im Ftardzinski, Doug Flygt, Rex Flygt, Ric Smetak, and Peter Erk. The Photographers were under the ruling of head photographer Rex Flygt. Rex shot and printed the pictures of the Athletics and Underclassmen sections and the divider pages. Pete Erk handled the pics for the Organizations, Ric Smetak photographed Student Life pictures and Doug Flygt did the photography for the Academics Faculty section. |im Hardzinski learn- ed the ropes this year, helping the other photographers whenever possible. These students also did the pho- tography for the Kardnal. The majority of the pictures in the Senior section were taken at the Northernaire Studio in Park Falls. Staff members were often seen working on layouts after school in the cafeteria. Seen here are Rex Flygt, Judy Olson and Jean Panke. 69 Kardnal Voiced This year's Kardnal Staff worked diligently to present an accurate picture of life at Lincoln High School. The paper also included a page of short compositions, poems, and miscellaneous literary con- tributions of the majority of students on important issues and activities, while attempting to maintain a mature editorial policy. Regular beats were assigned some staff members, while others acted as roving reporters or feature writers. Five issues of the Kardnal were printed this year, under the direction of Carol Heisler who worked as Editor- in-Chief, Mary Hardzinski was Co-Editor and Mr. Bud- zak served, for his first year, as faculty advisor. The Quill and Scroll Honor Society examination was given again this year to all interested students, and staff members were given the opportunity to join this honorary journalistic society.

Co-Editor Mary Hardzinski carried the completed dummy pages down to the Herald. Athletics Athletics at Lincoln this year meant glory — the burgundy Cardinal blazers, red letters on boys' jackets, adulation and cheers from the student body — but it also implied hours of practice. Athletics meant posters in the halls, the heartbreak of a loss, the thrill of winning. Watching the scoreboard, counting down the last ten seconds of a game, cold feet in the rain, popcorn under your feet. Athletics meant, most of all, team effort. Turn around, watch the scores, and remember . . . 73 Fighting Spirit Sophomore quarterback Tom Greenwood dropped back to pass in the Lakeland game. Halfback Tom Pepper crunched and crushed his way forward. Cardinal Football in '68 was played by only 27 men who came a long way on pure pride in them- selves and desire to win, as coach Knutson said. Assistant coaches were Mr. Carlson and Mr. Stoeberl. Early season victories over Hayward, and Owen- Withee displayed the Cards' fighting spirit. Moving into conference action the competition proved to be tougher. The team beat Medford and tied Lakeland, but lost to Phillips, Mosinee and Tomahawk. Outstanding performances this season were turn- ed in by Tom Pepper, Mike Greenwood, Larry Draxler, )im Isham, and many others. Tom proved to be the team's spark throughout the season, gaining the most yards and scoring the most points. Fine performances were turned in by Captains Mike and Larry, but early season injuries sidelined them when they were needed the most. Jim did most of the signal-calling for the team. 74 ked Football Force Top: Varsity Squad: Pat Morgan, Jerry Movrich, Jim Johnson, Randy Soper, Jim Isham, Ed Palecek, Bruce Bodoh, Terry Miller, Joe Schmidt.

Bottom Row: Gary Isham, Tom LaBlanc, Steve Kundinger, Quent Hoth, Jeff Wartgow, Jerry Movrich. Coach Larry Hilgendorf was carried from the floor following the Medford game. Cardinal basketball power showed itself in a 14-win 5-loss overall record, an 8-win 2-loss record in conference. Second place in the Lumberjack Con- ference and District Tournament were notable ac- complishments. A ten game winning streak marked Mr. Larry Hilgendorf's first year as coach. Mike Peters served as manager. |im Abel and Bruce Bodoh usually started at the guard spots. With a 14.6 points per game average, Abel was leading scorer on the team, 4th in the con- ference. Bodoh's play-making was the key to many wins. Center Mike Greenwood did outstanding work and kept the team calm. Larry Draxler and Tom Pepper's aggressive rebounding from their forward positions helped to punch through many field goals and paced the leading defense in the conference. The five starters were frequently spelled by Steve Kundinger, Quentin Hoth, and Gary Isham, who added extra enthusiasm as well as extra points. 76 Conference Helpless Medford defenders stand by as Jim Abel laid up the ball on a give-and-go pass from Mike Greenwood.

The season was characterized by rugged play, with Jeff Wartgow, Cary Isham, and Tom LaBlanc contributing their varisty skills to the regular J.V. effort. Tom Cerhman, a freshman, proved to be a promising player and Dan Seifert brought home the victory in an overtime contest with Lakeland. All together, however, the basketball season proved to be only an average one for the |.V. cagers.

Cheerleaders are chosen by a teacher panel in spring. Pep, the mastery of basic jumps, and several cheers are the basis for the choice. The group is ad- vised by Mrs. Frokjer. Throughout the year, at games and assemblies, the cheerleaders helped to instill school spirit and pep in the members of the student body.

We had higher hopes than what we achieved, but we are only disappointed, not ashamed, said wrestling coach Gilbert Stoeberl, who summed up the 1968-69 wrestling season. Although they did not reach their goal of state competition, the Lincoln High wrestlers had a fine season with a 7-win 5-loss record; all the boys wrestled hard and displayed fine sportsmanship. This year's team captain was Dan Heisler. Weekly captains were chosen by Mr. Stoeberl on the merit of their previous week's wrestling. Five wrestlers qualified for sectional competition: Gary Frokjer, Randy Frokjer, Dan Heisler, Jack Jirschele, and Dick Page. The Most Valuable Wrestler award was voted to Dan Heisler by his teammates. All these wrestlers represented Lincoln High School in the best form of good sportsmanship. Coaches Gilbert Stoeberl and Russell Knutson, and manager Larry Palecek helped lead the players to this year's winning season. The spirit of the fans was not to be outdone by the wrestlers, however; enthusiastic crowds cheered the wrestlers from the beginning of the season to the end, wherever they went. 82 ashed Opponents WRESTLING SCOREBOARD We They 17 Ladysmith 29 32 Ashland 18 27 Rhinelander 15 47 Hurley 5 8 Merrill 33 Triple Dual 39 Ashland 13 27 Flambeau 17 16 Tomahawk 28 18 Phillips 23 29 Lakeland 18 18 Mosinee 28 32 Medford 16 Ladysmith Invitational — 1st Regional — 2nd Merrill Invitational — 3rd Conference Tournament — 4th Randy Frokjer flipped his opponent.

The words represented goals to reach, passing English, joining senior band, or meeting that new boy or girl. We searched in all the corners of the school to find ourselves. Gropingly, a little uncertainly, and sometimes successfully, we found other people and understanding too. We were LHS in '68 - '69. Turn around, and see yourselves . . . And now we're seniors, standing with eager feet at the parting of the ways, high school almost a memory now, we reach out in a final attempt to touch the real Lincoln High. We are prepared for tomorrow — college, jobs, or the Armed Services await us, but for a moment the security of high school seems a welcome thing.

A hint of adventure lures the members of the class of “69” onward with the promise of success The shadows of our high school years provide the basis for leadership. A search into the depths of memory brings back thoughts of our struggling freshman years and our first class meeting. Al Scherwinski was elected president and Tom Pepper became vice-president. Dan Hoffman was chosen as secretary, while Judy Olson acted as treasurer. Homecoming captured our enthusiastic excitement. Janet Peterson was chosen as our Homecoming attendant, and her es- cort was Tom Pepper Our float, entitled ‘‘Drag-on To Victory,” took second place. The remainder of the year crept by slowly until the hint of the Junior Prom pervaded the atmosphere. Our prom attendant was Dennis Pritzl, who chose to escort Carol Heisler. Mr. Johnson, Miss Auger, and Mr. King guided us through our first year in high school. As sophomores we were again followers, but now there was a shadow behind us. The election of officers was the first business of the year. Dick Welty was chosen as president, Terry Wollerman was named vice-president, Pat Behrle held the office of secretary, while Steve Kundinger became our treasurer. As our second homecoming approached, ideas for a float again taxed our imaginative powers. We decided on ‘‘We'll Ring Up a Victory.” Ruth Kaley also represented our class, being chosen as attendant. Dan Heisler escorted her. Finally spring arrived and with spring came the annual trip to Trees for Tomorrow in Eagle River. Forty sopho- mores, chaperoned by Mrs. Sturgeleski and Mr. Ludwig, were selected to represent Lincoln High. The final highlight of our sophomore year was the prom. Leo Schneider, our attendant, escorted Vicki Svehla. JUNIORS! At last our first year as upper classmen arrived and the shadows lengthened behind us. We elected our first woman president, Kathy Campbell, who was aided by Jim Isham as vice-president Kevin Kemper as secretary, and Dan Hoffman as treasurer. Mary Pauser was chosen as our Home- coming attendant. She was escorted by Dick Welty. Our junior float was entitled We're Coffin-up a Victory. During our junior year we began plans for our prom, selecting Carousel as the basic theme. Larry Draxler and Debbie Haller reigned over the prom as king and queen. Terry Wollerman and Patsy Kennedy were the attendants. Our senior year gave us the distinction of being leaders at last. We chose our president Larry Palecek. Al Scherwinski became vice-president, Janet Peterson served as secretary, and Kevin Kemper filled the office of treasurer. Our next order of business was the Homecoming dance. Kathy Campbell was elected Queen in a school- wide election, and Kathy Feit, as runner-up, became senior attendant. Members of the football team selected Jim Isham as King and Mike Greenwood as attendant. The nearness of graduation cere- monies precipitated excitement in the flurry of preparations. Our class chose the white rose as their flower, complementing it with the colors crim- son and silver. Our role as leaders was now mani- fest in our motto Today we follow, tomorrow we lead. The shadows of our high school years stretch seemingly far behind us, but the future glows with the lure of adventure and success. 122 Index Abel. Dora Butts, David 95 Abel.

Advertisements ..............Index It seems the editor-in-chief always gets the credit or the blame for the yearbook. Few people realize how much co-operation is needed to produce such a book. I would like to say a special thanks to my staff this year, because this book is the effort of many people, not just one or two. I would also like to express my gratitude to Mr. Ludwig for keeping us in line, and for giving us so much assistance. My section editors, photographers, business manager and co-editor also deserve the highest recognition. I would also like to thank MacGregor Litho, Inc. for their patience. A yearbook should be, above all, a memory book for the students. I sincerely hope that the '69 Torch serves this purpose, reminding all who subscribed of the fun, the work, and the excitement of the 1968-69 school year at Lincoln.
