Stephanie Rowell, Jerry and Diane Feighner Drama Club sweeps the stage The members of the 1981-82 Drama Club are well aware of what the word 'busy' means. Their year of productions started with Music Man in the first few weeks of school, and went nonstop - until mid-February, when the One-Acts Dessert Theatre was held. In between productions and rehearsals, the members went to Omaha to a J. Geils concert and had a Valentine's dance. Although there was no spring play this year, the drama club members didn't get lax in their acting abilities. This was evident at the Drama Club Initiation Banquet on April 25th. After the meal, the new members performed in skits of their own creation and the Senior club members presented a mock awards skit. A ‘slightly messy' initiation stunt was then required of the nine new members. The winners of the drama awards are pictured below. They are: Mike Zeigler, Best Actor; Holly Jones, Best Actress. Mary Beth Weinert, Most Improved; Jerry Chab, Newly Discovered; and for Best Supporting Roles, Craig Smith and Dawn Decklnger.

Varsity Volleyball battled through a tough season this year. It was a growing year for the girls under the new supervision of Coach Luis Cass. According to Cass, In most respects it was a disappointing season. We had higher hopes for 1981, but we just didn't come through. The highlights had to be the improvement shown by a number of underclassmen and the consistent play of some of our returning veterans, namely Cheryl Goff and Kari Scheitel. However, there is reason for optimism for the 1982-1983 season since nine returning lettermen will give the Tigers a seasoned look. Therefore, high expectations exist for both players and coaches in viewing the upcoming season. 69 Junior Varsity volleyball squad builds for future The Junior Varsity volleyball team had a rebuilding season in '81. The girls played with intensity, but lacked the needed experience. As for the desire among the girls, it was made clear they had it in every match. The girls struggled through three wins and five losses. The girls improved a lot through the season and with practice will look good for next year's upcoming season.

Bek COUNTY CLERK Nevada Williams COUNTY JUDGE Albert Maust The journalism staff of Falls City High School extends a big thank you to all those who made the yearbook possible by advertising in it. Also, a special thanks to Mr. Harley Ridgway and Morsman Studio for giving us his time and photographic assistance. Without him we would have no yearbook to hold our memories. I SING THE BODY ELECTRIC I sing the body electric. I celebrate the me yet to come. I toast to my own reunion when I become one with the sun. And I'll look back on Venus; I'll look back on Mars. And I'll burn with’ the fire of ten million stars. And in time, and in time we will all be stars. I sing the body electric. I glory in the glow of rebirth, creating my own tomorrow when I shall embody the earth. And I'll serenade Venus; I'll serenade Mars. And I'll burn with the fire of ten million stars. And in time, and in time we will all be stars. We are the emperors now and we are the czars. And in time, and in time we will all be stars.
