Students gain wealth of Tiger spirit It's hard to put into words how the year began because it seemed to begin just like any other year. There was the usual excitement os students crowded through the doors to pick up their schedules and compare them with their best friends. Although the day seemed like on ordinary first day of school, there were special things that set it opart. The Student Council started the year off right by making large, colorful UUCICOMC signs to hang over the entrances to the school. They also placed cinnamon bears in the lockers to welcome each student individually. As the year progressed, other things mode the year o unique one to remember. The volleyball team used secret pals to raise spirit within the team. The girls left a gift in their secret pal's locker everyday during the volleyball season. Nebraska made history when Helen Boosalis and Kay Orr ran for governor. This was the first time that two women had run against each other for governor. UJhen Kay Orr was elected, she was the first female Aepublican governor in the U.S. Other things happened, but along with all those specific events there was the wealth of knowledge and the riches of self-esteem that were shared by all. Ves, it was definitely the year to STAIPC IT RICH! Introduction cademic Classes are added One of the definitions for the word rich found in Webster's Dictionary is having high value or quality. That certainly describes the academic aspect of the students' lives. Teachers and students worked together to insure that each student received the best education possible. UUith the help of coring and dedicated faculty, students hod the opportunity to develop their talents to their fullest potential. New dosses were added to the curriculum to occommodote the students' growing interests. Journalism was offered for two hours instead of one because of an overwhelming number of students that wanted to toke part in producing the yearbook. Junior Senior He vin ffeckner types his yearbook copy Into the computer. Mike Snook, a Journalism I student, said, I wanted to toke part in preserving history. I'm glad they offered both Journalism I and II so we could learn journalism skills before we actually had to do yearbook pages. existing classes were changed for various reasons. The girls’ chorus was opened to boys for the first time since the class has been offered. This change was the result of a new state law. UUith the growing interest in computers, more computer classes were added to the schedule. Senior Bobby €is, an independent study computer student, commented, Computers are like swimming. If you don't learn how to use them, you'll drown in the pool of technology. Although academics will be what is least remembered in the future, they will be the most important benefit any student received.

Rcofcmics Divider ndividuals z emonstrate @ riginality Creativity abounds in classes Creativity — the ability to design new and better objects with excellence. Students showed creativity in the different projects that they made. We had a variety of un- • . usual creations, commented Patricia Cook, Art instruc- -9 tor. • Originality was expressed in the Music Depart- ment in both band and chorus classes. During the Madrigal Feast presentation in December, Mildred Appleoff, chorus director, said, ' Students create dances, decorations, and costumes. There were also many other classes students showed creativity. Students in composition demonstrated imagination in their assignments. The things that they wrote about were not copied and expressed each student's individuality. Wood working was an often overlooked area where creativity played an important role. Shaping and working with the wood took plenty of skill. Also in the vocational field were home economics classes in which students made not only food dishes, but also sewing projects. One final area where creativity came into play wasjour-nalism. Designing the yearbook and thinking up things to write about on its pages was quite an achievement. What compelled students to work with their minds and be creative? You build on your ideas. This makes everything fun, interesting, and challenging, said senior Kristy Lowe.

Students in the Journalism I and II classes attended two workshops. They went to Omaha for a workshop presented by their publishing firm and to the Mebraska High School Press Association Fall Conference in Lincoln. Select juniors attended County Government Day at the Richardson County Courthouse. Juniors from the other high schools also attended. The family living class toured the labor room at Falls City Community Hospital. As a surprise the class members were given gowns, hats, and booties to put on and allowed to enter the sterile delivery room. Another home economics field trip was taken when the modern home management class went to Lawrence, Kansas. They went to the Hallmark Card Co., Johnson's Furniture Store, and the University of Kansas. Art III and IV classes went to the Josyln Art museum in Omaha. The viewed a show of new art and a show of art by five black artists. On March 31 sociology students went to the Correctional Center and State Legislature in Lincoln. Junior Debbie Garland said, It was fun, and we learned a lot.'' May was another busy month for field trips. Biology I and II students spent the day on May 6 learning about wildlife at Squaw Creek Refuge. Students in the third hour composition class went to north School in May. There they read children's stories they had written to the kindergarten and first grade classes. On May 16, choral students competed at the Festival of Choirs in Kansas City, Missouri. They competed with schools from the five state area at Worlds of Fun. Rachel Cook. Sean Stevens, and Susan Kirkendall read to the students at north School. flCQ ics 9 4 David Schwartz and Scott McGinnis try to figure out the German words in their music. earning e ultural wareness Students study many countries Many students took part in activities that led to cultural awareness. Making friends with foreign students and class assignments dealing with other countries added to knowledge of other cultures. Something new that was done in the composition classes was writing letters to pen pals in England. Many , kids thought this was a fun and an interesting expert ence. Lisa Wing said, I've always wanted to have a pen pal from another country. I think that everyone who is writing to a pen pal will learn about some new ways and have a chance to make some new friends. Tom Hinrichs, composition teacher, got the names and addresses from a friend who teaches in England. He sent them a copy of our yearbook and some newspapers to let the pen pals know a little about Falls City and FCHS. Students enrolled in Spanish and German classes, taught by Wanda Biel, learned the languages and something about the culture. She said, In a foreign language, there are topics which can only be discussed or understood in a cultural context. There were also a few students that were foreign related or exchange students. Amaya Manzano Renedo was the only exchange student. She came from Spain. Two students who have lived here for a few years are Fernando and Viole-ta Karst. They had dual citizenship in Mexico and America. Gabriel Lardizabal also had a dual citizenship in Honduras and America. Violeta Karst works on improving her typing skills. 10 Rea Elizabeth Janko writes a letter to her pen pal in composition. Using Mr. Roggenkamp s computer to complete an assignment is Fernando Karst.

That was what receiving awards was all about. Many of the art students received awards and recognition for their accomplishments. Tony Roberts won the coveted Gold Key award, and Michelle Huebner was recognized for the Stamp Contest and won fifty dollars, too. There were other areas that students excelled in, and many were rewarded in an awards ceremony in the auditorium. It's great to get recognition for the work you've done, and I'm happpy this school is willing to take time to reward the students, said Stefan Hussenoe-der, who scored the highest on the National Math Contest. David Schwartz placed second and Glen Lampe placed third when taking the annual math test. Also given recognition were Stefan Hussenoeder, David Schwartz, Fernando Karst, and Becky Huppert who placed second in their division at the UNL Actuarial Club Contest. Named as the top student in the Biology I classes was Gary Fisher. Four students were tied for second in class averages. They were Paula Benitz, Monica Castle, Holly Merz, and Bobby Meyer. Receiving an award as the top American history student was David Schwartz. He was presented the D.A.R. Award by history teacher Paul Weinert. Freshman Gary Fisher receives an a ward for excellence in biology from Terry Flynn. Mark Fegan congratulates Stefan Hussenoeder for scoring highest on the national Math Exam. Rcodei 13 Highly productive” is one of the definitions of rich found in Webster's Dictionary, and that perfectly describes the students and faculty. faculty members worked exceptionally well throughout the year to give the students the best education that they could possibly give. The administration made sure everything ran smoothly while the teachers were busy grading papers and giving huge amounts of homework. Freshmen kept on their toes trying to get acquainted with the high school routine. One freshman, Brian UUardlow, commented. “High school is much better than middle school, and it is what I expected it to be. UJe have much more freedom here, and there are many S0 more activities to participate in. UUith one year under their belts, sophomores felt more confident of themselves. They knew whot to expect, but they knew they had a long road ahead of them. Things such as planning the Jr.-Sr. Prom and taking FICT tests kept the juniors busy. Jobs also helped to keep them busy. Mitzi Deckinger thought this was her busiest year. She said, I have a job and much more homework. I'm more active in band and chorus, but all of this activity makes the year more fun. Rll the seniors could think about was graduation and their plans for the future. They put together a time capsule to be opened in twenty years. With this they hoped to preserve a little of their senior year. €veryone worked together to make the year the richest and most productive one it could be.

She said, “My mother was a teacher, so I was familiar with the job.” The influence of another teacher was how some of the faculty made their decisions. They were either real close to that teacher or liked them very well. According to English teacher, Judi Carter, she had two English teachers that were big influences on her decision. She stated, “One of my teachers was the nicest teacher I ever had, which made me decide to become a teacher. The other was the hardest one I ever had, which made me decide to teach English since I had such a good background. Although their reasons for teaching were different, most faculty members agreed that it presented new challenges every day.

When answering a questionnaire about why they decided to become teachers, most mentioned a desire to work with young people. English teacher Tom Hin-richs said, “I wanted to stay involved with young people and with activities. Family tradition was another reason mentioned by several faculty members. The tradition was especially strong in social studies teacher Ron White's family. Not only have all of his brothers and sisters taught school, but he also has five aunts, two uncles, and two brother-in-laws who are educators.

Things were different when our teachers were students. They were different not only because our faculty members came from varied backgrounds, but also because they grew up at different times. Although they lived in different areas of the country, most of our teachers went to school in about a two-hundred mile radius from Falls City, mostly in Nebraska. Terry Flynn, biology teacher, went to school in New York. He stated, I went to a private prep school. We directed our energies more toward school activities because the kids in my school Diane Rieschick-Resource Dick Spaulding-Accounling I and II, Typing I and II, Sophomore Class Sponsor John Svoboda-Band, Lessons, Stage Band, Instrumental Productions Sponsor Norma Thompson-Geometry, Math 123, Trigonometry, Pre-Calculus, Applied Math, Computer, Junior Class Sponsor Sara Veigel-Resource, Junior Class Sponsor Barbara Watlington-Clothing and Textiles, Modem Home, Adult Living, Human Development.

To be honest it really wasn't ’cool’ then to go cruising, or hanging out. Some things in the Midwest are a lot different from New York. Another teacher who lived out-of-state, Mark Fegan, the algebra and computer teacher, grew up in Glen-wood, Minnesota. He stated that there were no computers or calculators available to anyone when he was in school. Another technological advance since his schooling was television, according to Larry Munn, P.E. teacher. He said, T.V. was new. We got only two channels and it was black and white. Many staff members also mentioned that in the past teachers were looked at with fear and respect. Business teacher Dick Spaulding said, Not only did I have much respect for them, I also had respect for books and equipment. Teachers recall past fads, rules “T.V. was new. We got only two channels, and it was black and white.” --Larry Munn- 19 l LdMitLLLL Freshmen face new experiences “It helped having some upperclassmen for friends. Someday we’ll be back on the top.” -Bryan Gentry- Being nervous was one of the main emotions felt by the new freshmen. Going from middle school where they were at the top of the ladder to high school where they were at the bottom was a disturbing factor. Now the ascent had to be started all over again. For most this was a depressing thought. One freshman, Bryan Gentry, said, It helped having some upperclassmen for friends. Someday we'll be back on the top.” But some freshman weren't disturbed by having to begin again. They looked forward to their freshman year as a challenge. According to them, the high school had a more relaxed atmosphere than middle school. Holly Merz was anxious to make the move. She said, I did look forward to high school. It lived up to my expectations. High school is fun, but it is a lot different than middle school. Dan Jenkins commented on how he felt about upperclassmen. He said, I have mixed feelings for the upperclassmen. Most of them treat me as if I were one of them. That makes me feel wanted, and I like that. But then there are others who most of the freshmen don't like because they try to put us down and make us feel out of place.” Some of the freshmen came into high school with the thought that they were going to be initiated. Bryan Gentry said, I heard that all freshmen were initiated when they first got here, so I was a little scared. After a while though, I found out that this wasn’t true. As soon as I realized this, I felt better about high school.

L-idsauudi When the new students, known as freshman, came into the school building, academically they were timid, meek, and full of reservations. Therefore they became easily influenced by those who were veterans”. When they entered into the new surroundings, many were totally tongue-tied and dumbfounded. Cindy Lampe said, I was in complete awe of everyone around me. I was terrified that I would do something wrong and embarrassing. They were not completely sure of the way they should act, and inadvertantly looked to those veterans for the definition of the proper etiquette. “I feel that I was better able to fit into high school because I have an older brother who is in high school. In that way I could hang out with him and his friends and learn how to get along in high school, said Steve Knaup. The freshmen virtually could not fathom what would be in store for them and tried their hardest to fit in while being inconspicuous. Most of these observances were rewarded greatly because the freshman were soon able to fit into the swing of things. Audra Schulenberg said, I found that it was fairly easy to fit in at high school. For me it was something I already knew pretty much about since I already had two brothers who graduated. However, sometimes someone took longer to adjust and blend into the academic scene. But when it came right down to it, the freshman really and truly enjoyed their new and challenging adventure in the academic world.

What will my second year be like? Will I be able to choose my own classes? Do I get to look down on the freshmen this year? Will I be able to play on the varsity teams? On her first impression of her sophomore year, Cherie Hahn said, I felt a lot more at ease with all the kids and teachers. I knew there wasn't anything to be scared of this year. It was a great relief to know that the pressure of my freshman year was off.'' Cherie added, I knew that I wouldn't get as much static from everyone this year.” On the other hand, Ann Huppert was looking ahead to her sixteenth birthday. She said, My first impression was that I was actually going to be a sophomore and because I knew I would be able to get my driver's license this year.” There were many things to make the sophomore year different from the freshman year. There were more classes to choose from, fewer required classes, and more feelings of power. Jason Merz said, “This year has been a lot funner because I’m no longer one of the youngest people in the school. Another big change for the sophomores was the chance for those involved in athletics to participate in varsity competition. Mary Beth Pierson said, You have to work a lot harder, and work your way up to playing more. Last year everyone got to play every game, but this year volleyball was tougher and more exciting, especially playing with the varsity.” Rick Adams Vickie Allen Tiffany Anderson kerry Bahr Scott Barber Susan Becker Paula Bemtz Bridgette Birdsell Karen Bokelman Rick Bradley Dawn Bray Blake Buckminster Christy Butner Josh Caverzagie Kim Chandler Dan Clark Vicky Clark Wendy Clark mores Danny Couse Robbie Craig Steve Deckinger Steve Dorste Wendy Ellison Keith Feek Shannon Fouraker Tony Gerweck Marc Gilliland Shelly Goll Christy Graves Shawn Hager Cherie Hahn Butch Hayes Brenda Honea Mike Howell Ann Huppert Becky Jack John Janko Shannon Jenkins Ray Joy David Kirkendall Deena Konstantopoulos Glen Lampe Kerry Bahr and Carol Picton read their music during fourth hour chorus class.

Many of the sophomores got their license, and some even received their own cars once they hit the legal age. Kim Chandler said, “It feels great to have a license and a car. It’s great being able to drive. Shannon Jenkins commented, “Having a license and a car has given me my first real sense of independence. I no longer have to depend on parents or friends for rides. It feels really great to be able to go anywhere I need to go when I want to. Although some sophomores were lucky enough to get their own cars, many of them just had to settle for getting a license. They then had to beg to use their parents' car on weekends so they could go out cruising and ride up and down Harlan Street to see all their friends. Even though it was great to be a sophomore, turn 16, and get a license and maybe even a car, there were many added responsibilities that went along with being a sophomore and being 16. For many it meant that it was time to get a job so that they could afford to buy gas for their cars. For others it meant getting a job so they could earn enough money to buy a car. Many were required to work so they could pay insurance, which was very expensive because they were young and inexperienced drivers. For some it was a time for having fun with driving and for others it was a time to work. Sophomores get their own wheels “It feels good to have a license and a car. It’s great being able to drive.” -Kim Chandler- Julie Rieger Tony Rieschick Heather Rowell Stephanie Schawang Tami Schawang Tony Schawang David Shields Dan Spencer Shannon Stokes June Strasll Troy Strauss Chris Suedmeier Pat Sumpter Tammy Umland Connie Walsh Tom Watson Todd Werner Jared Wittwer Sophomores 27 lJ Li.liLL.Ut Juniors prepare for real world “I’m ready for high school to end, but I’m not ready to face the ‘real world’”. --Leslie Coleman- The juniors started out with eager anticipation, yet apprehension. They were apprehensive because it was their third year of high school. The juniors were also anxious because it was their next to the last year of high school. In just one more year, they would finally be out on their own. Leslie Coleman commented on how she felt about having just one more year before she faced the “real world”. She said, I feel that one more year is not enough time to make decisions about my upcoming career and which college to attend. I'm ready for high school to end, but I'm not ready to face all the problems of the 'real world'.” Helen Konstantopoulos expressed her thoughts about being a junior. She said, Being a junior gives me a great feeling. It means that I’m an adult now and that I have only one more year to go until I go out into the harsh and challenging world.” Another junior, Mike Snook, said, The best part of being a junior is knowing I only have one more year left of school. Kim Noll described her junior year as speedy”. Many other juniors agreed with this analysis. They said that they were amazed at already being juniors. It seemed just like yesterday that they entered the building as shy, scared, intimidated little freshmen, and now they had worked their way up to being juniors. Now there was only one stage left. That was their senior year, which they looked forward to with great anticipation and also great anxiety, but first came the struggle of working their way through being juniors. Although the juniors had another year left, they would be seniors before they knew it.

The tests that were taken included the ACT, SAT, PSAT, SRA, and ASVAB. The ACT, ASVAB, SAT, and PSAT were all optional testing, while the SRA was required of all juniors. Counselor Ron Roggenkamp commented that much of the testing was necessary for college entrance. He said, ‘‘The ACT and SAT tests are used by colleges to evaluate the student's skills which, in the colleges' opinion, are necessary to successfully complete college requirements. For students not going to college, the reasons for taking these tests become no more important than the traditional achievement tests which are administered to all students. The ASVAB was a military aptitude test. Many students took this not only to uncover interest in the military, but to discover a career area they were most likely to succeed in. The PSAT was a pre-SAT test which readied one for the SAT. The SAT was a scholastic aptitude test as was the ACT. The SRA test, which was the only one required, was taken by all juniors. This test was an aptitude test to acknowledge the rising ability of the students. Individuals had many opinions on the best and worst parts of the tests. Tacy Kirk-endall said, In my opinion, the worse part was the length of time it took to take the achievement test. The best part was being able to move at my own speed, yet finishing within a reasonable amount of time. It all added up to a very busy year, but taking the various achievement and aptitude tests should help the juniors’ futures. Juniors take tests to aid their future “The worst part was the length of time it took to take the achievement test.” -Tacy Kirkendall- Jon Scribner David Schwartz Kelli Sells Donna Sesna Mike Snook Sean Stevens Jeff Strasil Dawn Sullivan Grant Svoboda Aaron Tilton Scott Titus Oscar Trejo Tim VanAbel Belinda Vernon Steve Walker Chris White Lisa Wing Chris Wisdom tLliLLLit Seniors face year with anticipation “It has also opened my mind to how fun it really has been to be in high school.’’ --Kevin Beckner-- Seniors! They yelled it with pride at pep rallies. It was finally their year to reap the rewards of seniority. Sean Schuetz commented, “It's hard to believe that it is finally our turn to be seniors. It's nice to be the ones looked up to instead of the one that has to do the looking up.” Many seniors started the year with great anticipation and high hopes. I looked forward to my senior year, said Diane Elsberry. It would be the last of my high school days. I thought it would be great being the oldest and most looked up to member of a school again. I wanted my senior year to be full of memories that I could cherish for years to come.” Seniors faced new responsibilities, such as signing senior pictures and filling out college and scholarship appli- cations. My senior year has brought on many new responsibilities such as applying for college scholarships and financial aid. It has also opened my mind to how fun it really has been to be in high school,” commented Kevin Beckner. Being a senior is great! I wish it would last longer because when the year is over, I won't see the people I grew up with for a long time, Kristen Hartman said. This was one of the harsh realities of being a senior. Friends would part and go their separate ways and when they would meet again was uncertain. Graduation was the main objective for the year, but many seniors realized that after graduation they would go their separate ways and high school would be merely memories.

For some it was on to a job. for others it was on to college, and for some it was on to the service of our country. Each branch of the Armed Forces had at least one senior join its ranks. Todd Simmonds joined the Navy for eight years, Bryan McKern enlisted in the Air Force for twenty years, and Kristy Lowe signed up for three years in the Army. Reed Schwartz joined the Marines for five or ten years, and Bob Ebel signed up for six years in the National Guard. These people joined the services for many different reasons. Bryan McKern signed up, because there are no jobs in this area, and the service gives job training and a job. ” Todd Simmonds said, I don’t want to go to college, and this is the only way for me to get a job. On the other hand, Kristy Lowe said, I decided to join the Army, basically, for the college education, along with the idea I’m getting great benefits, such as travel, good money, a steady job and experience in many fields. Reed Schwartz said that he decided to join the service because I have always liked the Marines, and I feel that the defense of our great nation and our way of life is of the utmost importance.” Bob Ebel said, I joined the service because I needed money, and it has a lot of benefits.” Whatever their reasons were, the Senior Class represented the school well in the nation’s armed forces. Seniors join the services “I don’t want to go to college, and this is the only way for me to get a job.” — Todd Simmonds — Jim DeBusk Donna Dodds Bob Ebel Bobby Eis Diane Elsberry Sean Gatz Laurie Groothuis Kelli Hager Seniors 32C tLlllliLLt; Seniors sign away photos “It was nice sending my final regards to my classmates since kindergarten.” — Reed Schwartz — Another Senior Class emerged into the limelight, and it was time once again for that ever-so-famous ritual of signing senior pictures. It all started with the taking of these precious photos. In about eight weeks the final copies were returned, and it became time to invest in a smudge-proof pen. All through the hallways one heard, Can I have a senior picture of you? The seniors replied with vigor, Sure, which one would you like? The seniors found it necessary to have two certain items with them at all times after they got their photos back. These two items were a pencil or pen and a piece of paper so they could write down the name of their admirer and also which picture they wanted, if the senior had more than one. If they didn’t have these items handy they had to rely on their ability to remember who asked for what. The seniors proved to be like any other Senior Class in being anxious to finally get their pictures back and observe them. Reed Schwartz said, I looked forward to getting my senior pictures taken, but once I got them, signing them was not as much fun as I had imagined. But it was nice sending my final regards to my classmates since kindergarten. Other seniors weren’t so anxious to get their pictures back, and even less anxious about signing them. Tracy Matthes said, “I feel that signing senior pictures is a monotonous practice among myself and my fellow seniors. In a couple of years these pictures will be stashed away in a shoe box.

Some of the more common forms of it were not taking a first or second hour so they could sleep late, or not taking sixth or seventh hour so they could get out of school early. Another common trait of Senioritis was signing up for what were considered to be breeze” or pud” classes. It seems as though some Seniors spent more energy finding ways to avoid homework than the energy it would have taken for them to actually do the homework. David Sesna, who didn't have a first or second hour, said, I didn’t take any classes first or second hour so I could sleep in. I’m real tired of school and wanted to sleep in a little.” Becky Huppert said, “I didn't take a full seven courses this year mainly because I needed the time to work on my other studies, and I didn’t want to take a study hall because if I didn't have studies, I would be able to go home or do what I wanted to do.” While many were struck down with severe cases of Senioritis, others were more cautious and managed to avoid the plague. Kevin Beck-ner said, I feel I have a chance to expand my learning right now without any cost because I know that once I go to college, my education will be very costly. There were several ways to cure Senioritis. The most common cure was graduation. For some seniors graduation meant no more schooling, and for others it was a preview for college. Senioritis strikes the senior class “I didn’t take any classes first or second hour so I could sleep in.” — David Sesna — Shawn Prosser Stephanie Ramsey Mary Rieger Tony Roberts Warren Roberts Joe Romeo Scott Sailors Sean Schuetz Seniors 32G tlillLlilit Seniors assemble time capsule “We had to settle for putting the time capsule in the court house.” — Bobby Eis — To make their memories last, the Senior Class tried something different. Sean Gatz and Bobby Eis organized a time capsule containing memorabilia of the seniors’ past. Each senior was to include a close-up photo of themselves and predictions of their future lifestyles, such as if they would get married, and when, how many children they would have, what their occupation would be, and where they would be residing. Any other items that Senior Class members wanted to include were fine as long as they didn't take up much space. Some of these items were family snapshots, T-shirts, and jewelry. This paraphernalia was all stored in a container and placed to rest in the court house. It will be opened in the year 2007 at the Senior Class's 20 year reunion. Cathy Niemeyer commented, I thought that it would be kind of neat to come back and see how everyone really turned out from what they predicted. Also what everyone looks like at the reunion as compared to senior photos. Bobby Eis stated, Most people thought that the idea was a good one. Quite a few people have made the suggestion of putting a VCR tape also in the time capsule. But by the year 2007, VCR players will probably be obsolete.” He added, We also contemplated burying the time capsule in the front lawn of the school building, but our Senior Class sponsors didn’t think the idea would go over too well with the people in charge of the building. We had to settle for putting the time capsule in the court house.” So the year 2007 will be something to look forward to for the Senior Class of 1987.

Graduation represents our good-bye to the past and our welcome to the future. Such were the thoughts valedictorian Kelly Palmer expressed to the friends, relatives, and faculty members who filled Jug Brown Stadium on Friday, May 15, 1987, to witness graduation ceremonies. After the seniors had filed into the stadium, accompanied by the commencement band, who played Fanfare and Processional,” the Rev. James Thomas of First Breth-ern Church gave the invocation. Superintendent Better-mann followed by first thanking the attendance who had encouraged the graduates and concluded by challenging the graduates to keep learning. In the Baccalaureate message, the Rev. Vern Borer of New Life World Outreach Center challenged the graduates to become impact players” and difference makers. Salutatorian Kristen Hartman urged her classmates to find happiness in life. She said that the key to happiness was to be at peace with yourself. Follow your dreams, and happiness and success won’t be far behind,” she said in conclusion. Kelly Palmer, the class valedictorian, said that each member of her class had learned to be a leader in his or her own way, and that graduation marked a new beginning for the class. Lewis Gellett, high school principal, then presented the students to the audience. The diplomas were presented to the students by the school board members. Rev. James Thomas then offered the Benediction, and the band played Proud Heritage as the recessional for the sixty-eight graduating students.

They wanted to do their best, not only to prove their ability as a group, but also to show their school spirit. They began by learning a tough routine for tryouts. Susan Becker said, “I was thrilled that I made the flag corps. I wanted to go out on the field and show everyone what I could do.” When members were chosen, they began the struggle to learn the new routines. Band members recorded their songs for the flag corps so they would have the music. The members met for practice every day to get the routines perfected. When flag corps and band members were ready, they practiced together to get movement down pat. The time spent practicing was well worth it because the routines were intently applauded by the spectators at the football games. The flag corps members also gave their classmates a band----------------- special treat. They performed a routine at a football pep rally. The students who had never seen the flag corps perform before were really impressed with their preci-siveness and acute punctuation. Kim Noll said, ”It was fun performing at the pep rally. Everyone seemed to enjoy it which made it that much more special to the flag corps members.44 Members of the flag corps practiced and performed under the direction of Noala Fritz. Members await “Amerika” Band began with a great anticipation for the month of February. No, everyone wasn’t anxious for cold weather — they were waiting for the days in which the movie Amerika would be televised. Everyone was restless to get a glimpse of themselves on national television. The year before the band members all treked up to Tecumseh to play the part of a band marching in a parade. The band director Mr. Svoboda said, “We all knew that in the parade we were marching behind a large cow. We just sat back and waited to see the cow, and then began scanning the screen for our faces.” Quite a few members were able to spot themselves on the television. They were elated and couldn’t wait to call all their relatives and friends to see if they had caught a glimpse of them, too. But even if they didn’t view themselves on the big screen, the members were fascinated watching the movie because they knew the behind the scenes action. Band didn’t completely consist of television movies though. Members also marched on the field during halftime at football games, marched in parades, and performed concerts. Two big concerts were the Soup Supper and the All School Band Concert. The band also attended a district contest and was awarded a superior rating, the highest possible.

Throughout the year the Stage Band worked on music for the All-School Band Concert and District Music Contest. Director John Svoboda was very pleased with the group of students. He said, “The quality of the stage band was good this year, especially since we had to replace quite a few experi- enced players. The new people came through as usual and did a good job at all of the performances.” In addition to the performances, some of the students attended a clinic at Northwest Missouri State University on April 7. This clinic featured Woody Herman’s band, the Thundering Herd. Through the course of the day, the students worked with members of Woody’s band. They also at- tended a formal concert at the end of the day. For the second year in a row a select group of stage band members formed the Dixieland Combo. The group worked on two numbers throughout the year. The combo performed at the All-School Band Concert, Districts, and between one of the acts at the spring play. Members of the Dixieland Combo are Stefan Hussenoeder, Bobby Eis, Jon Scribner, Kelly Palmer, Grant Svoboda, Steve Walker, and Jared Wittwer.

Students earn high ratings vP On April 25, at 6:45 A.M., the band small group members boarded the bus to go to Auburn for District Music Contest After many hours of practice during band and stage band, these students were ready to do their best in front of the judge. Being in a small group gave the students a challenge. Junior David Schwartz said, “Small groups give you more of a chance to express your abilities. In the large ensemble, you play a small part, and if you mess up, it isn’t so bad. In a small group, it is a challenge to hold up your end.” David also commented that the music that the groups play is selected by the members of the group instead of the director. The band ended up with outstanding ratings.

Outstanding chorusters for 1987 are Melissa Strasil and Steve Walker. Mildred Appleoff helps the soprano section learn their part during mixed chorus. Chorus students stop for a quick breakfast in Idaho on their way to Canada last summer. Students Discipline and concentration — that’s what it took to bring the chorus up to a spectacular year. Although some students thought chorus would be just another easy class, they soon found out that it was not as easy as they thought it would be. Discipline was a big factor in learning all the music. Shelly Armbruster said, “You always have to be quiet when you’re practicing so display discipline everyone can achieve the most out of rehearsal.” Concentration was also a big factor in the success of the chorus. Violeta Karst commented, “I have to pay attention to learn my part.” These factors proved their worth as the chorus traveled far and wide to sing at the 1986 World’s Fair in Vancouver, Canada, last summer. The chorus also showed that they could sing their hearts out at District Music Contest in Auburn. The Girls’ Glee came home with a superior and the mixed chorus received an excellent. Choral students ended the year with a spring concert and a performance at Worlds of Fun. After the year filled with practice, concerts, and performances, Mrs. Appleoff said, “It’s been a really great year, and I hope everyone enjoyed it as much as I did.” % Mildred Appleoff conducts the chorus at Grouse Mountain in Vancouver on the summer chorus trip.

Groups Please Crowds Applederas Show Choir was the mixed group that consisted of ten boys and ten girls. Applederas, a Greek Word meaning “one who loves to perform,” was an outstanding group considering some of the difficulties they overcame. They began doing a jazz set of music from the 30’s. They decided they wanted to do something with a new twist and unique. After learning the whole jazz set taught by Rodger Kelly, a student at NWMSU, they changed their whole set to gospel and contemporary Christian music. The choreography was hard, and they had to do some quick learning over Christmas vacation. To add classiness to their outfits, the guys got suit jackets to match the girls dresses, and the girls got sequined belts and collars. In spite of loosing three girls, this new, alive, exciting and praising group came through second semester receiving third place and bringing home a trophy from Midland Jazz Festival, and a I at Districts. Their Grand Finale was the spectacular “Let There Be Praise” by Sandi Patti. Commaderas, known as Girls’ Show Choir, was an all girls’ group of fifteen. They practiced during seventh hour, which gave them time to let down, have fun, and enjoy the last hour of the day singing. They not only had fun dancing and singing, these girls had to put in much hard work to get all the movements precise. They learned to be one big family and had group cooperation throughout the year. Another thing the girls learned was not to be shy in front of an audience, and they learned to take criticism. The girls made up their own choreography, made it exciting, and loved to dance and sing cute songs about “men!” A couple of their hit songs were “When I Meet My Man” and “Rhythm of Life”. For spring concert they added some cute routines to their music, “Big Spender” and “If My Friends Could See Me Now”. Both groups performed at Peru Swing Choir Clinic, Maryville Contest, Midland Jazz Festival, Nebraska City Lordes, the barbeque, Auburn Districts, Spring Concert, nursing homes, and various local organizations.

On the evening of April 23,29 new members were inducted into the club. These students were selected by the faculty members on the basis of four principles: scholarship, leadership, character, and service. A special service was held to induct the new members. Four candles were placed on a table, each represented one of the four principles. As each of the candles was lit, an old member read a script that dealt with the principle which that candle represented. This was a special occasion for the new members. Helen Konstantopoulos said, “Being inducted into National Honor Society was a great pleasure for me. It made me feel privileged and honored. It showed me that all my hard work and efforts were acknowledged and that they had not been in vain.” She added, “As I walked forward to receive my National Honor Society certificate and pin, I was overflowing with joy and pride.” The National Honor Society members also helped out with the graduation ceremony. Several of the the members served as ushers for the occasion. Senior members were recognized at graduation with yellow roses. As they say practice does make perfect, and it really showed as the different choral small groups headed off to the District Music Contest. Though not everyone made it to all the practices, they still received high ratings. Most of the singers came back with smiling faces from receiving superiors.

Although the numbers were down, the quality remained. Norm Fritz, advisor, said, “This year the emphasis was on quality, not quantity.” The year began with a team qualifying for the state land judging contest. During the state contest, Keith Feek, Glen Lampe, Ann Huppert, and Blake Buckminster finished in seventh place. Many other activities filled a very busy year. At the district Vo-Ag contests, the ag mechanics team, the soil and water management team, and the dairy cattle selection team finished first and received plaques. At the state convention in Lincoln, the FFA had a good showing. Mark Brewer and Sean Schuetz were awarded the degree of state farmer during a Thursday evening ceremony. Shirley Huppert also received a good rating at the State Convention as her proficiency award was given a third place gold at the state level. The national ag mechanics team of Mark Brewer, Sean Schuetz, and Randy Arnold had a good showing at the state convention. They finished in second place only three points shy of first place. The year was capped off by FFA Week, during which members sponsored various activities and concluded with the annual parent-member banquet. One hundred and forty people attended the affair. The evening started with the meal in the small gym, and then the program took place in the auditorium. The guest speaker was Tracy Mueller, 1986-87 state reporter. In her speech she was critical of all the negative aspects in today’s news about today’s youth. She likened a young person’s home town to a safe harbor. She said that some people will remain in the safe harbor all their lives, but some will journey out into the open. During the business meeting at the parent-member banquet, the new officers were installed. They then started their duties by closing the ceremonies. The year proved to be a success for the chapter, and with the youth in the chapter, the future should be rich with success as the young members grow older and gain experience. The FFA had the winning float in the Homecoming parade with the theme “Boil the Bulldogs. ” Mary Rieger waits for the staff to arrive for their coffee and donuts at the annual faculty coffee.

Sean Stevens, Tony Gerweck, and Matt Liberty, listen to what is being said in a club meeting. — Members sponsor activities One of the largest and most involved organizations was Foreign Language Club. This group of Spanish and German students held various activities, and each one was successful in its own right. During Homecoming Spirit Week, Foreign Language Club sponsored their traditional banner contest. Jason Merz and Ronnie Coonce won the first prize over several other spirit-raising banners which were hung in the stadium during the game. Christmas Prom was the most successful project taken on by the club. The North School gym hosted a record turnout. Putting the dance together proved that there was great cooperation within the group. President Kristen Hartman said, “The night was a great success, and I am happy that I got to be a major part of planning it.” For a winter activity, Foreign Language Club spon- sored a hoop shoot at halftime of a boys’ basketball game. There was great support from the fans, and they got a good laugh from watching three lucky contestants attempt a half court shot. Sponsor Wanda Biel had a positive attitude toward her group. She said, “I feel that the club is an important social extension of foreign language. It provides lots of activity for many students who do not participate in sports.” Girls need spirit, patience — Spirit, drive, and patience. These are the three qualities a cheerleader must have. The cheerleaders had an endless supply of these qualities. If they weren’t cheering, they were learning new cheers, decorating athletes lockers, or planning pep rallies. The football cheerleaders started off the year. They cheered through rain or cold, sold hats and scarves at football games with the help of the wrestling cheerlead- ers, and they concluded their season by making Homecoming a smash! The basketball cheerleaders suffered a downfall. The season started off with five cheerleaders, and ended with three. The three remaining cheerleaders must be admired for their spirit and determination. They had a never-give-up attitude, and it showed. Becky Armbruster said, “I was very frustrated in the beginning as we lost three girls, but after the adjustments were made, we had a lot of fun.” Being a wrestling cheerleader was not an easy job, but that didn’t bother these girls. They cheered on the wrestlers with spirit and enthusiasm as they suffered through the long days of the invitationals. Junior cheerleader Susan Kirkendall said, ‘‘The invitationals were fun and give you a chance to meet new people and just have a good time.” Basketball cheerleaders Michelle Huebner, Becky Armbruster, and Ginger Hall raise spirit at a pep rally in the auditorium.

I also think it would be neat to be published.” One senior from seventh hour, Kevin Beckner, said, “I really do believe it’s better to have two classes because this way you have more help with your pages, and the ‘first timers’ will learn what to do before they become editors.” Shawn Miller Stave Walker Staff Marcia Brzon Nicolle Clark Elizabeth Janko Barb Joy Tacy Kirkendall Jamme Loss Kristy Lowe Loyal Parsons Mike Snook Melissa Strasil Scott Titus Co-editor and artist Rachel Cook spends seventh hour working on yearbook pages in Mrs. Carter's room to make a deadline.

Group sponsors activities Members of the Student Council found themselves busy with money raisers, keeping them on their toes. Student Council member Kari Potterf said, “We don’t quite know what we are going to spend the money that we earned on. We would like to use some of it for some more fun activities yet this year. We also want to purchase a new tiger mascot uniform.” To raise school spirit, the Student Council also sponsored “Welcome Back Day” and Homecoming Week’s activities. Stefan Hussenoeder said, “We had our own float in the parade at Homecoming, which took time to set up, and we had to get the details of the Homecoming Week straightened out. Some of the days we wanted for Spirt Week were even so outra- geous, that Mr. Gellett said ‘no’ to them, but we still had some pretty original days.” In December they sponsored an unusual event called the “Candy Cane Crusade” in which the group raised about $300 dollars. About six hundred candy canes, along with messages, were delivered throughout the building. V S Teams strive Recording to UUebster's Dictionary, one meaning of the word rich is ’’pure or nearly pure. This describes Tiger sports - pure excitement and dedication. Rthlete eligibility was o major issue in sports. Grades were turned in every three weeks, and athletes could not compete if they were failing more than one subject. Some athletes thought this was unfair, but most felt that it added to on athlete's dedication. Sean Stevens, a determined and dedicated junior athlete, soid. If it weren't for sports, some students would hove no initiative. People need to keep their grades up to remain eligible for athletics. This not only odds to their academic performance, but also their athletic performance. for those who did not participate in school sports, out-of-school sports proved to be ways to keep in shape or just to hove fun. Skiing, swimming, and baseball helped these ond oil stu- dents pass extra time. One of the biggest highlights occurred in wrestling. Senior Jerry Mount captured the state championship in the 155 pound weight doss in Class 8. The wrestling team, os a whole, sent seven wrestlers to the state meet and finished the season with a record-breaking dual record. Sports helped athletes and fans alike learn how to win graciously and to lose with dignity. They also tought them how to work together os a team instead of trying to earn only individual glory. It was with dedication and determination to succeed that sports were one of the richest aspects of the year.

This does not include just school-sponsored sports but also activities that take place out of the school’s jurisdiction. Sophomore Dawn Bray said, “Out-of-school sports interest me either because I like the sport and or there’s not all the pressures that go with school sports.” Our community has many sports to offer our youth. such as the Elk’s Midgets baseball team and the Falls City swim team. Other sports in our community included Red Cross swimming lessons, boys’ baseball and girls’ softball. But not all sports are sponsored by some organization. Most students take it upon themselves to find something to occupy their time, like a friendly backyard football game. They may make use of our city’s many park facilities, such as tennis or basketball courts. Senior Mark Veigrel enjoys a day skiing at Big Lake. Missouri. Bobby Eia prepares for a dive during a swim team practice. Jason Mez and Jon Scribner get ready for another inning in an Elk's Midget game. Sophomore Dan Clark, who said he participated in a variety of out-of-school sports, said that they kept him busy. He commented, It gives me something to do so I will stay out of trouble.” Although the summers provided an opportunity to participate in many different sports, some students also found themselves active during the other seasons. Hunting was a popular sport during the fall and winter. Although there was little snow in Nebraska, some students even mentioned that they enjoyed going out of state for skiing. All in all, out-of-school sports’ activities kept students busy and entertained throughout the year. 5 6 Ou of-school Sports Rachel Cook and Tom Wenz enjoy a day of rafting on the American River in California.

Within the team there was a feeling of confidence and anticipation. There were some changes that took place this year. Keith Richey took over as head coach and Tom Hin-richs was added as an assistant coach. Erik McNeely said, “One of the biggest assets this season was everyone on the team working together that gave us our success.” On the other hand, Sean Gatz commented, “The biggest asset to the success of the season, as a whole, was our victory in the opening Varsity 1 FC Opponent 1 20 Savannah 13 6 Fairbury 8 6 Hiawatha 21 20 Tecumseh 6 3 Atchison 7 6 Auburn 15 8 Omaha Roncalli 25 15 Wymore Southern 14 20 Ashland 6 Season Record 4-5 game. Last year there was a problem with putting points on the board, and going into the opening game, I think everyone at the game had some doubt if we could score. The comeback OT victory, where three touchdowns were scored in the last nine minutes and in overtime gave us a little spark of confidence.” The one thing Sean felt he got the most out of this past season was “a few good memories. Maybe we didn’t go to the state tournament or even having a winning season, but this was a rebuilding year, and we had fun with the few we won.

He said, “I got a lot of confidence this year. I learned all you have to do is relax and everything will come together and you will play well.” The varsity team improved its record to four wins and five losses; the junior varsity was three-two and the freshman team was four and two. The upcoming seasons should be rich with success as the younger players progress up to the ranks of the varsity squad.

Players work together Lady Tigers show riches of talent and potential As the season began the girls found they were rich with talent and potential. They also discovered that they had to work as a team for their riches to prosper. Senior Kris Lape said, “This is probably the best team I’ve ever worked with.” Junior Tiffany Gatz added, “The reason for such a hard-working team is because we are all such good friends, which really makes for a great cooperating team.” The team may not have had a spectacular season, but they did have some good highlights. Junior Donna Sesna said that her favorite part of the season was when the team played Lafeyette. She said, “It lifted the as-perations of the whole team to beat an undefeated one such as Lafeyette.” Sophomore Mary Beth Pierson agreed and said, “It was so exciting to beat a team as good as Lafeyette.” Another highlight of the season was when the Tig-erettes rallied to a victory over Conestoga in the Peru Humboldt 0-16 14-16 L Nob City 6-16 16-11 3-16 L Pawnee City 6-16 6-15 L Southeast 4-16 16-12 16-10 w Nodaway 16-2 16-10 w Auburn 2-16 0-16 L Lafeyette 6-16 16-8 16-10 w Rock port 16-3 164 w Dawson Verdon 16-1 16-8 w Season Record 6 4 Preskaas Humboldt 8-16 2-16 L Nob City 16-13 3-16 16-0 W Pawnee City 12-16 16-13 16 w Hiawatha 8-16 11-16 L Mt Academy 7-16 13-16 L A to] 16-16 3-16 L Sabetha 2-16 7-16 L Southeast 8-16 016 L Auburn 1-16 7-16 L Johnson Brock 8-16 6-16 L Lafoyotto 164 12-16 168 W Southeast 4-16 10-16 L Brownell Talbot 16-0 164 W Rockport 3-16 16-11 16-12 Season Record 6-0 w Shelly Armbruster digs for the ball while teammate Kerry Bahr watches her make the play.

Needed experience gained New members learn what it is to be C.C. runner What a year for both the new runners and the cross country team as a whole. The 1986 cross country team was mainly made up of recruits with the exception of a few veterans, yet as a whole it became a learning experience during the season. Coach Terry Flynn said, The lack of experience, particularly race experience, was frustrating. Most of the runners were concentrating on staying on the course during the races; they didn’t have time to concentrate on strategies that could help them place well.” Even though the team as a whole was not successful, individuals on the team did gain from being a part of it. Junior Belinda Vernon thought being a member of the cross country team taught her not to give up. She said, “It was interesting because I love to run, It helps me to clear my mind and it gives me time to think about things. I learned that I shouldn’t ever give up and to push myself, even when I feel like giving up.’’ Considering the team consisted of runners with different qualities the cross country team did what they could. In relation to this, Coach Flynn said, “I was very pleased with the efforts of all the runners. They worked hard to improve every time they ran.” He also complimented one of the runners by saying, I especially appreciated our senior Dave Sesna, for he was a big help to all of our young runners, with his gutsy determination and his never-say-die attitude.” All in all, it did prove to be a growing year for many new team members. The younger team members gained experience and insight into the sport.

Team records few wins Boys keep “positive attitude toward basketball” Games were tough and final scores were close; none-the-less, the players never lost faith in themselves or the team. The boys’ varsity basketball team ended the season with a 3-13 record with wins against Humboldt and Hiawatha and Rushville, Kansas. Junior Erik McNeely said, “This year we began the season with high hopes for a winning season. Although we didn’t win too many games all of the players kept faith in their teammates and their team. We never gave up and always tried our har- dest.” The junior varsity team consisted of many experienced players. They wrapped up their season with a 4-9 record. Sophomore Marc Gilliland said, “The players lived up to their potential and played hard. A lot of games were close, and we should have come out on top more than we did.” The freshman boys ended with a 2-7 record. They gained useful experience in the games. Freshman Dan Jenkins said, “Freshman basketball is a lot more competitive than anything I've expe- rienced in the past. You also have to compete with juniors and sophomores for junior varsity.” Even though the record didn’t improve, the outlook and attitude of the players did. Assistant coach Craig Stevens commented, “I would like to praise their positive attitude toward the game of basketball.” He explained their attitude by saying, “The J.V. players came into the season with a great outlook. They have hustled the whole season and were very willing to listen and learn new techniques.” Vanity Falls City Oppone 35 Syracuse 67 49 Norris 58 46 Tecumseh 4? 50 Auburn 55 46 Nebraska City 50 62 Hiawatha 50 58 Humboldt 80 62 Marysville 74 39 Mound City 58 61 Rushville 58 51 Auburn 62 31 Savannah 60 76 Tarkio 81 43 Nebraska City 53 40 Atchison 81 44 Johnson-Brock 56 48 Fairbury 49 44 Districts 66 Season Record 3 18 64 Basketball I Junior Vanity Falls City Opponent 29 Syracuse 62 32 Norris 75 51 Tecumseh 35 39 Auburn 43 46 Southeast 50 37 Nebraska City 48 47 Dawson-Ver- 48 don 41 Hiawatha 40 55 Humboldt 48 41 Auburn 52 54 Atchison 39 46 Johnson-Brock 32 52 Fairbury 58 Season Record 4-9 Froahman Falls City Opponent 43 Auburn 33 18 Sacred Heart 45 23 Southeast 34 29 Southeast 33 43 Nebraska City 54 35 Syracuse 54 39 Pawnee City 16 41 Tecumseh 45 35 Hiawatha 44 Senior Ted Huber shoots for two, while Senior Sean Gatz waits for a possible rebound.

Soys' Basketball 65 Tigerettes beat Auburn Away game wins elude girls' basketball players As a whole, the Lady Tigers did better this season than they have for some time. They were able to use their court advantage when they played at home, although all but one away game eluded them. Senior Nicolle Clark summed up the season and said, “I was very pleased with the team: We worked and tried our best. This was the best season since I’ve played. Teamwork was more evident in our games ’ For the first time in five years, the girls beat Auburn, not once but twice. The first game was at home, and the Tigerettes won by three points. The second time they played was at Auburn. It was the first and only away win. Senior Melissa Strasil commented on Auburn win. She said, “It was great to finally beat them!” Unfortunately, for the varsity team, two of their players were forced to finish the season early due to injury. Anne Huppert, one of the sophomores who played on varsity, said, “I feel that it is a great honor to be playing varsity. All the others were very helpful in showing me my mistakes and giving me the encouragement to play.” Amaya Manzano Re-nedo was one of our most in- teresting players. She was a foreign exchange student from Spain, and it was the first time she had ever played. Amaya said, “I’m just another on the team. They are friendly and they helped me a lot.” The junior varsity played an even season with eight wins and eight losses. There were some close games. Freshman Becky Scha-wang thought that Syracuse was their best game. She said, “When we played Syracuse we lost, but we played hard. If there would have been four quarters we would probably have won.” Varsity Falls City Opponent 29 Pawnee City 59 30 Southeast 28 37 Johnson Brock 72 50 Dawson-Verdon 22 28 Syracuse 66 41 Hiawatha.

Girls' 8oske ll 67 Pins set state record Varsity Tiger wrestlers win record nine duals Wrestling was very successful in its efforts, taking seven people to the state tournament in Lincoln. The varsity wrestling team consisted of eleven wrestlers, missing only one wrestler at the 105 pound weight class. The Tigers started off the season pretty slow; the team was two and two after the first four duals. Sophomore Jason Mez said, “I think the season went very well toward the end, but in the beginning we started out a little bit slow, losing two of our first four duals.” But at the end of the season, the Tigers proved to be something out of the ordinary by winning the rest of their duals and ending the season with a record breaking 9-2 dual season. After that job the Tigers headed for the District Meet, in which they took second over all as a team. Seven people qualified for the State Tournament, where they received sixteenth out of 43. The varsity team also won four trophies; all of them were second place. On route to their winning dual record, the wrestlers also set a new state record. The Tigers finished with a total of 146 pins as a team which surpassed the old state record of 137 set by Broken Bow two years ago. Summing up the season, Coach Larry Munn said, “I think the nine dual wins were an achievement that this year's team can be tremendously proud of.” He also added, ‘‘Their hard work helped continue the Tiger tradition in wrestling.” Junior Varsity Falls City Opponent 30 Nebraska City 59 36 Humboldt 21 24 Atchison, Ks 0 21 Hiawatha.

Golf team faces trials Board threatens cuts, new girls group stymied he 1987 Tiger golf team faced numerous different issues throughout this season. The season began with both a boys’ and girls’ golf team, yet ended with only a boys' team. At first the girls’ golf team was small but strong with girls very willing to learn and hopefully to succeed. Instead, it ended with the girls quitting because they did not feel comfortable competing with all boys. Next, the boys were faced with the issue of there possibly not being another golf team in the 1988 school sea- son, let alone in following years. A member of the golf team. Junior Grant Svoboda, commented on the school board announcement. He said, Of course I was worried, but I was confident that it would not happen.’’ The golf team also consisted of only a varsity team. The boys had a good season with it ending in a record of 2-3. Coach Terry Flynn enjoyed his last year here during the golf season. He said, Absolutely-probably the nicest group of young people I’ve worked with. They are always working to improve regardless of weather, or conditions. They are definitely determined to succeed.” With the year coming to an end, Grant Svoboda was voted as the outstanding golfer for the season. Grant place first and second in many meets.

At State, Jerry exclaimed that one of his most exciting moments was the Parade of Champions. He described the event and said, “Everyone in the building is standing up screaming, and the song ‘We Are the Champions’ is blaring as you walk along side your opponent. The feeling of this is as great as actually winning the State Championship itself. The path that a wrestler took to the State Meet was not easy. According to Jerry, there was pressure, strain and sacrifice throughout the four years of his wrestling career. He said, “To go through all of this for as long as I have is terrible, but deep down I knew I could receive something out of it, and that kept me going. And it sure paid off!” The only other Tiger athlete to earn a position in State competition was Sean Stevens. Stevens earned his ticket to the State Track Meet by jumping 44’ 3 1 2” in the triple jump at Districts. This gave him a second place finish at Districts.

F-Club flthletic Ban 77 New coaches lead teams Tiger athletes end seasons with fond memories WHAT A YEAR! The 1986-87 seasons were something to remember. They were filled with many hopes, dreams, thrills, and spills. The seasons also held many memories for our Tiger athletes. These included the come-from-behind victory in the opening varsity football game against the Savannah Savages and also the upset of a undefeated, top-ranked Lafayette volleyball team by our outstanding Lady Tigers. Nobody will ever forget Jerry Mount’s exciting victory to obtain the Class B, 155 pound Nebraska State Wrestling Championship. This year also brought forth a few new faces to our coaching staff, some of whom had been out of the coaching game for many seasons, but for others it was just a continuation of their athletic career. Keith Richey, middle school guidance counselor, appeared on the field to coach varsity football for the first time in about fifteen years. Mark Ritchie, another teacher from Middle School, led the boys’ basketball team. A familiar face to the J-V wrestlers was Ron White. Coach White had led many other teams throughout the years, but this was his first with the wrestlers. Another familiar face to the coaches, if not the students, too, was former FC standout Kathy Keithley. Coach Keithley assisted the girls’ volleyball and basketball teams during her senior year at Peru State College.

Weeks before the annual event, organizations started planning hall decorations and floats that would hopefully win first place in the float judging contest, for many students, the dance was the highlight of the week. Freshman Rebecca Meyer commented, The most exciting part of Homecoming was the dance. €ven though we lost the game, every- � r Ginger Hall dresses up for Hefty Ti one was in a pretty good mood, and I had a great time listening to the band. Other dances proved to be equally popular. They gave students something to do on a weekend instead of cruising Harlan. I like dances because everyone can hangout with their friends. They add to everyone's social life because there is not much else to do in Falls City, said Junior Helen Kon-stantopoulos. Plays were not only popular with the student body, but also with the public. The musical Camelot played in front of lorge crowds during both of the nights of the production. Current events were also a major part of everyone’s life.

She said, “It was great hearing my name during the pep rally and being a candidate with Rachel and Kelly. Probably the best part was riding in the convertibles.

Students who attended the dances did so to have fun and be with their friends. “The best things about dances are the music, being with your friends, and the slow dances,” said junior Deanna Earhart. Throughout the year there were many dances sponsored. They were of all different types from a couple of teen dances held at the Oasis, so that teenagers from all around could meet each other, to the big one, Junior-Senior Prom. At these dances there was an abundance of entertainment from live bands to disc jockeys to videos. There were just as many different opinions about which type of entertainment was best. “Recorded music is better because it offers you better sound “The best things about dances are the music, being with your friends, and the slow dances. ” Deanna Earhart reproduction than would a live band,” said sophomore Tony Ger-week.

The people who sponsored the dances tried to keep the price down so that high prices would not discourage students from coming to the dances. The prices usually ranged from about $1.50 to about $3.00, which was considered a low price when the amount of fun to be had at the dances was considered. So whether the dances were sponsored by the Foreign Language Club, cheerleaders, F-Club, or the Junior Class they all gave students an excuse to go out and have a little bit of fun. f Foreign exchange student Amaya Man-zano Renedo dances with her partner at the Homecoming Dance.

Each one helped to make the night a special one to remember for the juniors and seniors. Instead of the traditional live band, videos provided the music. Junior Kelli Sells commented, “I thought the videos were neat. They were much better than a band because the songs were performed by the original artist and no one was trying to imitate them.” Prom royalty was also a new and well-received addition to the dance. Anticipation filled the air as Junior Class sponsor Norma Thompson announced the royalty, chosen by their peers. The junior attendants, Michelle Hueb-ner and Erik McNeely, were announced first. Diane Elsberry and David Knaup were then crowned king and queen. ‘‘I was really surprised,” David said. ‘‘I didn’t expect to be named king. It was truly an overwhelming and joyful experience.” “Prom this year was a lot of fun. It seemed like everyone had a good time and enjoyed just being together. ” Michele Fritz creates pleasant memories The night was full of memories that made it a hard one to forget. Queen Diane Elsberry said, ‘‘I was very pleased and honored at the fact of being named Prom Queen. I wasn’t expecting it, and I was shocked when my name was called. It was a night I’ll never forget.” The night was unforgetable for many of those that attended. Michelle Fritz said, ‘‘Prom this year was a lot of fun. It seemed like everyone had a good time and enjoyed just being together.” Parents of juniors and seniors sponsored a casino night after the dance. Games, such as black jack and craps, were played for play money that was used to buy nice prizes. There were also drawings for prizes and services donated by local businesses.

We’ve filled the mini mag with a variety of details and interesting happenings. Senior Marcia Brzon stated, “Mini-mag makes the yearbook more interesting because later we can look back and see what silly things we used to do and sometimes wear.” Mini-mag pages are for everyone, freshmen through seniors. They deal with the facts of life and facts which interest most every one. Junior Shelly Armbruster said, ‘‘I think we’re lucky to have mini-mag because it tells a lot of really neat information concerning all of the student body.” We found many things enjoyable and interesting. The inclusions we have made were “news-worthy” to the time waster. Anniversaries, those unforgettable important dates, were abundant. “The oldies and the goodies” that made life fun were also included in this section of the yearbook. We recorded prices of items, too, so people could look back in years to come to see what they paid for things. The news of the year were also included so that people could look back and see what happened in Falls City and in the world. We’ve tried to bring fun-filled and interesting events to the student body in order to make the mini-mag pages eye-catchers and enjoyable.

But no matter how many times you see them or wear them, they are still the best.” Everyone will always have those oldies but goodies and remember the times they shared with fads. They can count on them staying around. With all the fads coming and going, there’ll always be a popular demand for new styles to replace the old ones. No matter what they were, fads were fun to have. Sophomore Cindy Mandery said, ‘‘I think the new fads were great. There were things everyone enjoyed and picked up on and are now collecting dust on a shelf or under a bed somewhere, but they were lots of fun to be shared by friends, and that’s why they were neat.” 98 Mini-MQ9 Anniversaries make news Anniversaries—why were they so important? Junior Jean Becker said, “I think the importance of anniversaries is to remember days that are most important to you and other people such as friends. Think of the days you last saw your old boyfriend and when you met your best friends. The one bad thing about anniversaries is that if you forget them you’re really in trouble.” The Lincoln Memorial celebrated its 65th anniversary on May 6. 1987. The Lincoln Memorial, located in Washington, D.C. in Potomac Park was designed by Henry Bacon. The building has a historic statue of our former president Abraham Lincoln by David Chester French. The Statue of Liberty had its 100th anniversary on October 28, 1987. The Statue of Liberty became a national monument in 1924. Located on Liberty Island in the Upper New York Bay, the statue, originally known as Liberty Enlightening the World, was proposed by Edward Laboulaye to commemorate the French and American Revolutions. It was designed by F.A. BartholdiA One hundred years of age does not affecr the beauty of the Statue of Liberty in New York Harbor. Amy Marteny gets into celebrating Coca-Cola s 100th anniversary by drinking a Coke and wearing Coca-Cola designed clothing. Standing 152 feet high, it was constructed of copper sheets. With donations from around the world, the statue was renovated for the anniversary celebrations. Coca-Cola had its 100th anniversary. Coca-Cola was a syrup made with sugar and various flavors including cola. Later it was mixed with five different carbonated waters. A druggist in Atlanta, Georgia, was the first to make Coca-Cola in 1886. The Missouri River Bridge also celebrated its 100th anniversary. It was built in 1887 by the Burlington Northern Quincy Railroad. In 1977, it was replaced with a newer bridge. It was a great link between Saint Joseph, Missouri, and Lincoln, Nebraska. Hollywood celebrated its 100th anniversary. Hollywood was best known as the center of the country’s motion picture industry. Celebrating their 15th anniversaries were two amusement parks, Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida, and Worlds of Fun in Kansas City.

Music entertains Music was a favorite pastime for everyone from the very young to the senior citizens; each listened to a wide variety of different music. Musical tastes varied between rock, country, new wave, punk rock, classical, and jazz. The music differed according to the style, fads, and people of the time. People enjoyed listening to music no matter how it was presented--juke box. cassettes, tape player, live concert, compact disc, or even the victrola. Senior Becky Armbruster said, “It’s great! Music never dies, even after its been listened to for years. The reason I love it is because I can always count on something new every year and I can still go back and listen to my old favorites.” Music not only proved to be a past time or a hobby, but some songs, such as “We Are the World,” helped to save lives by raising money for those who were in need. Music not only helped to save the needy and unfortunate, but it helped to change people and the times as they came along. Sophmore Butch Hayes said, “It’s great that there’s a wide variety of music for the different tastes of different people.” Since different styles of music were accepted by the different types of people, new styles of music were adapted to go along with the times and the types of people who listened to it. It started out as a mad dash for home after a long day at school on Friday. What was everyone planning for the weekend they had been waiting for in the last few grueling days? Sophmore Jani Nissan said, “I enjoy inviting a bunch of people over to watch a few good scary movies, and of course a couple of romances. I usually like to invite close friends and people I’d like to get to know. Watching movies is really more fun than cruising around, and it’s much cheaper to rent a few movies.” This idea was good for a lot of teenagers. The rental cost was cheap when it was split between friends. Sophomore Cindy Mandery enjoyed going out of town on weekends. She said, “I enjoy going to St. Joe or anywhere out of town. I enjoy going somewhere new and find new things to do and people to meet. I’ve met so many people, and they’ve become really special to me.” Teenagers were doing so many things. They shared their weekends with new and different people in different places. They enjoyed many different activities of the year. Weekends offered a great deal to teenagers; they were a time to experience new things, new friends, and emotions. Teenagers going out of town showed growth in maturity and trust, and their parents showed trust in their son or daughter by letting them go.

Mini-m 101 Now for the news What’s happened? Tornado, new business, disaster, import taxes. These were a few of the things we were all involved in which took place in the world. No matter what you do or who you are, the news concerns you. An oddity across the nation was the strange weather. On the local scene, in September, a tornado struck the Falls City area. Major tree damage throughout the Dallas Jones Memorial Park, the ball diamond fencing and grandstand, and heavy damage to the bath house of the swimming pool resulted. Damage also involved a 14,000-bushel empty grain bin that blew over and landed on the roof of Scheitel’s Feed Seed. The strange weather continued on into winter. During the season, very little snow and ice fell on the area. While the central plains had very little snow and wintry conditions, the eastern seaboard was hit by high tides, blizzards, and flooding. The rarity continued into spring. The first day of spring was March 22 and on March 28, a blizzard hit eastern Nebraska halting the cities of Lincoln and Omaha and stranding many people on closed highways and interstates. Away from the weather, the local scene was plagued with news items concerning the cult and the farm north of Rulo. The notorious leader was Michael Ryan was sentenced five years for possession of a machine gun. He also received life for the death of Luke Stice and was sentenced to death row for the killing of James Thimm. His son Dennis Ryan received a life sen- tence for second degree murder. Included in the local news, but at the state level was the death of Senator Edward Zorin-sky. With his death came the appointment of a new senator, David Karnes. Governor Kay A. Orr appointed Mr. Karnes to complete the rest of Zorinsky’s term. Karnes was the youngest senator to serve and to have been appointed. Senior Mary Rieger said, “I was surprised by the news of Senator Zorinsky’s death. I felt it was a great loss to the state of Nebraska.” The local scene at school consisted of threats to cut out drama. The threats included cutting Mr. Robert Loss. The school board also wanted to cut out cross country and golf. Junior Michelle Huebner said, ‘‘I don’t think it’s a good idea. Students need a wide variety of extracurricular activities to find what they’ll like or enjoy best.” Now turning to the national scene for news, one thing was in the news most of the year. It was the Iran-Contra scandal. It consisted of a plan to sell weapons and arms to Iran for the release of hostages and then to give the money to the contra rebels of Nicaragua. Also on the national scene were the numerous teenage deaths around the country. It was known as a suicide chain. It started with the deaths of some teenagers in the state of New Jersey. It continued on across the nation with the loss of many other teenagers. On the other side of death was birth. It dealt with the fight over Baby M, a surrogate child. Mary Beth Whitehead, Baby M’s biological mother, decided to keep the child after she was born. Mrs. Whitehead called her child, Sara. But William Stern, the father of the child called her Melissa. The case went to court and it was decided that the Sterns received custody of the child, known to the courts as Baby M. Mrs. White-head received limited visitation rights of her daughter. On top of the news world was that of the Dow Jones. It topped the 2000 mark. After a steady stream toward the top, it suddenly took a downward swing to end out the year. On the international side of the news was the sinking of a ferry boat off the coast of Belgium. In March, the ferry sank causing the deaths of 178 passengers who were on board. Also in the international scene was the president of Austria, Kurt Waldheim. He was barred from entering the United States because he helped deport Jews from Germany to concentration camps. In April, a scandal was discovered in the Moscow embassy. Some Marines stationed ther6 allegedly gave Russian agents secret information. The men involved were brought home and criminal charges were pressed against them. At the same time, it was discovered that the new embassy being built in Moscow was bugged with listening devices. Russia wasn’t the only place where we had trouble. The Japanese objected to higher tariffs put on Japanese imports to the United States. The higher tariffs were sought as a way to combat the large trade deficit of the United States. Damaged during the tornado is a grain bin at Schei J P Q . H U % % kn fOs _ X ? o. ■'O - ' ? a. 0 „ Sh.

Although the advertisements ore usually overlooked, they ore possibly the most important section of the yearbook. The first thing the journalism students learned to do was sell ads to the local businesses. Besides the sole of the yearbook, ad soles were the main source of the money needed to pro duce the yearbook. As the form economy hit hard times ond businesses themselves hod to cut bock to moke ends meet, most of the businesses approached felt on overwhelming obligation to support o port of the students' lives that would lost for years to come. Junior Susan Mlrkondall chocks out o sole oto loin return for their support of the yearbook, students did their port in supporting the local businesses every day. They bought flowers to send to sweethearts on special days ond just the right cord for o best friend's birthday. UUeekends just wouldn't hove been the some without gos to cruise Harlan and junkfoods to satisfy growling stomachs. Paper ond pencils were always in demand for oil of the homework teachers loved to assign. Businesses also helped students by giving them port-time jobs. Spore cosh was always needed to help poy for the special things no high school student could do without. All of the Journalism students and the rest of the student body thonk oil of the businesses for their support. UJithout them there would be no yearbook. Hopefully, the partnership will continue long into the future. $65 Patron FIRST NATIONAL DANK AND TRUST COMPANY The Dank of Friendly Service Falls Ciry, Nebraska 66355 $50 Patron SOUTHEAST NEDR.

Although many were anxious to end the year as soon as possible, their determination and drive to achieve their goals never diminished. If anything, the drive intensified. One of the most unusual events that occurred near the beginning of spring was a late snowstorm. Because of the inclement weather, the spring melodrama, Deadwood Dick, was cancelled after only one night of production. Two weeks later, the cast was on stage for two more performances. fit the District Music Contest, the Music Deportment brought home 26 superior and 12 excellent ratings. Out of 21 choirs that competed, the Girls' Glee was one of only two choirs to receive q superior rating. Sean Schuetz, Mark Brewer, and Randy Arnold captured second place in the Ag Mechanics competition at the State FFA Convention. They missed a ticket to the notional competition by three points. Senior David Knaup won the pizza certificate in the yearbook raffle. He won one of the prizes in the raffle in each of the three years one was held. There was also o mixture of feelings among students as the year drew to a close. The underclassmen were just happy to get o lengthy break from classes and homework. Seniors were anxious to start college or awaiting jobs, but they were also sad to leave their childhood friends. 118 Closing Rs part of the Tiger Doting Gome. Rancfy Sailors.

Students gain wealth of memories Although knowledge was one of the most important things students left with at the end of the year, it was not the only benefit that enriched their lives. Fun times with friends and major accomplishments were the things that were most important and will be the most remembered. Learning wos not oil books ond facts; it wos experiencing what life wos really like—interacting with people and learning their tendencies.
