 The Monkees mere my all time favorites, especially Davy. It's al- most embarrassing to remem- ber. — Miss Darla Dreesen mil fjuM EE akis Twenty years ago, in 1967, the Monkees, Davy Jones, Peter Tork, Micky Dolenz and Mike Nesmith, were the top recording bond and hod a hit television show. Their nine hit records started with Last Train to Clarksville and sold millions. Stories about the Monkees appeared In hundreds of magazines, everywhere the Monkees went, screaming fans followed. find now, like so many other things, the Monkees ore bock and as popular os ever. Reruns of the old Monkees TV series were on many channels, including o MTV oil Monkees weekend. Radio stations featured the old and the new songs of the Mon- kees. That was Then, ThisisNoiv (1986) and Daydream Believer (1969) were both popular this year. Fan Clubs and concerts started again. Only Mike Nesmith didn't rejuvenate with the old gong. The long ond short of it Tyron fidoms ond Nancy Wilmes cruise the hollujoys in their togas during Home coming. One of the more unique things that one may notice about the students at Creighton High is the large variation in height. Looking down the hall filled with seniors, one may see anyone from Mark Scholl ond Mott UUagner who stand ot 6' 4 and 6' 2 respectively or Nancy Wilmes who only sprouted to 5' 1 . If one were in the hall filled with the underclassmen though, one would probably see Tyron Adorns soaring Mini Mog over everyone else ot 6' 7 ond then again one may see Trlsh Al- exander darting around ot 5' 2V4 . Of course, now at Creigh- ton, it wasn't always the boys who ate the spinach when they were young. Gina Moser, 5’ 11 and Kendra Chrenberg, 5' 9' e definitely towered above Corey Jacobs, Denny Hofmann and Co- rey Sartos who oil ore 5' 4 . The number of inches that a person stood really didn't matter though - each hod its advan- tages and disadvantages. Rs some folks would soy the best things come in small packages” while still others would soy the bigger the better.

Dual octing team or Michelle Diedrichsen and Mott UUagner present o scene from Some Time Next Veor. Speech team rotes, but misses state The seemingly impossible happened. Creighton speechsters received second place at districts, but failed to send anyone on to the state contest. Fifteen people participat- ed on the speech and dra- ma team. Competition be- gan with the Clgin Invite and a runner up placing. Creigh- ton hosted an invitational, but no team scorings were kept. Defending their NCNAC title was a challenge, as the contest held in Bloomfield ended in a tie between Creighton and Crofton. fl totalling of individual scores put Crofton ahead giving them the championship. Speech coach. Kathy Kavan later discovered a mathematical error, proving Creighton had won. To avoid conflict, Creighton and Crofton were named co-N€NflC cham- pions. The second annual Parent's Night was held March 16 with Mrs. lorrie Kliment and Mrs. Sharon Kryger as guest judges. Districts soon rolled around and nervousness spread as competition was great. Clkhorn Valley, last year's Class C state champion, won the district. Al- though Michelle Diedrichsen, Tammy Cmory, lyn Heaton and Trish Alexander qualified for the finals, no one placed first or sec- ond to go on to the state compe- tition, although nine superiors were earned. It was a pretty successful year. Districts didn't turn out as hoped, but otherwise it was pretty suc- cessful. — Matt UJagner Orel interpretation of dromo teom con- sists of Brendo Kuhlmon, Tylynne Chris- tiansen. Mike Bouer.
