Chris, who is the head brain surgeon at Bryan Memorial Hospital, talked his supervisors into letting us use the hospital tor our reunion. Chris has decorated one of the operating rooms with sterile suits and operating tables. Suddenly there was a loud crash in the Hall. The door flew open and Bob came through in a wheelchair. Fighting off two nurses, he yelled, Leave me alone, I’m an experienced chiropractor. I can fix it myself. Bob explained that he dislocated his shoulder while trying to pop his own back. No sooner had the nurses left when they came running back into the room. One yelled, There’s a madman limping down the hall carrying a shotgun! Suddenly, Darren burst through the door yelling, “Freeze! He started laughing hysterically, dropped his gun, and headed for the refreshments. Darren popped the tab off a can of pop and began to explain how he shot himself in the foot while chasing a rooster through a corn field. LaFona then arrived, leading Amy Jo who was crying and whimpering. “What is wrong? we all asked at once. Amy Jo sobbed that her husband was kicked in the spleen while they were trying to sort cows. She wails, It was all my fault. I closed the gate at the wrong time. LaFona told us that Richard and she would have been here earlier, but they dropped off Justin at an Optimist football game. The cheese dip began to get hard, so Chris popped it into an incubator for a few seconds. Suddenly the wailing sound of a siren pierced the air. We all rushed to the window to see what the commotion was. We were just in time to see a police car dropping Tarcia off. We all assumed that she finally got her license taken away. But when she came inside, she told us that due to her vast knowledge of the penal system, she became an officer of the law. Her comment was, If you can't beat'em, join 'em. Next to arrive on the scene was Mike, surrounded by many beautiful women. He is now a world famous comedian and has just finished his tour of the best night clubs in the world. Suddenly, the door swung open and in rushed Carol. She aplogized for being late, saying that she had been reading to a little girl who was scheduled to have her tonsils removed. Carol is now a social worker who spends most of her time working with children. When asked if she had any children of her own she replied, Kids! Yuck!” Jumping Jacks! Ready begin, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven.” It was Amy Hinrichs with her gym class. Amy has been very busy teaching gym class every day and coaching girls sports. We have all become successful in the last ten years. We’ve found that though we have changed, we are still very much the same as we were in high school. Seniors 37 AMY LYNN HINRICHS We must try to understand ourselves before we can understand others. CAROL SUE HOGELAND There is no greater challenge than to challenge yourself.

The Hildreth Junior-Senior High School Band, under the direction of Mr. Windsor, continued their busy schedule this year. The first annual summer band camp was held in August to prepare the students for marching. Guest clinician Scott Murrish drilled the band on fundamentals, and customized a march- ing show for the band. Our annual fun trip to the Nebraska State Fair in Lincoln was extra special, because we sported our new uniforms for the first time. Beautiful weather made the trip that much more enjoyable. Marching competition in McCook brought home a first place parade trophy and second place field marching. The Harvest of Harmony trip was highlighted by an exhibition show by the UNL Cornhusker Marching Band. Al- though it was cold, everyone enjoyed the day. Concert band worked very hard for the Conference Band Clinic in Lawrence. The work paid off, as we continued to improve, receiving Excellent ratings at District Music Contest. Jazz Band enjoyed a very successful year, despite getting snowed out of the Norfolk Jazz Festival. The final concert of the year, with artists-in-residence Tony and Joey Gulizia, was enjoyed by all.

The 1986-87 year was an enjoyable year for students in mixed chorus as well as for the audiences they entertained. A wide variety of musical encounters were provided to the chorus by participation in Conference Choir Clinic, Christmas and Spring concerts, District Music Contest, and a visit from the Gulizia Brothers. Eight members of the Hildreth High School Mixed Chorus were selected to sing in the Conference Honor Choir at Choral Clinic. These students represented their school well. This years speech team, under the direction of Miss Mary Ellen Matulka, had a great year. Team members worked very hard preparing their speeches. Their hard work paid off when three outstanding members of the team went to State Speech Contest in Lincoln. Members going to state include Amy DeJonge and Tami Lindau (Entertain- ment) and Scott Schwartz (Extemporaneous). These students did very well receiving Superior and Excellent ratings at the contest.

Whether the Greyhounds were playing at home, or at Conference or District Tournaments, Pep Club members were always there, bringing the fans to life with their many cheers and chants. Dedication was also shown by the members of Pep Club who worked in the concession stand that the Pep Club runs throughout the year at athletic events. Being there to sell candy, hot dogs, popcorn, or pop when it was your turn to work is what being a Pep Club member is all about. Led by President Amy Jo DeJonge, and the cheerleaders, the Pep Club sponsored many entertaining Pep Rallies for the student body during the past year. Pep Club sponsors for this past year were: Mrs. Stratman, Mrs. Fritz, and Mrs. Fisher.

Hoffy, a 20-year-old woman, portrayed by Leann Johnson, was in love with “Coop”, Bobby Alberts. Coop finally proposed to Hoffy while dining out. While planning all the preparations for the wed- ding, Bonnie and Brian were planning their divorce in the same restaurant. Bonnie, a 27-year-old, was played by Amy Hin- richs and Brian, played by Chris Eynon, didn't want to draw the line, but Bonnie did. The conclusion of the play brought to light the fact that Brian and Bonnie were Coop and Hoffy, only seven years later. Organizations 72 This years annual staff is proud to present to you this annual, PRESENTING THE CAST OF THE YEAR 1986-1987.

Ultimately, Charlie gets the girl along with the goods, but not before everyone accidentally drank the truth serum. Despite the long hours, early morn- ing, and late night practices plus a few minor difficulties, the class put on a very good performance for the community. It was a lot of hard work, but we survived and even had fun in the process. We would also like to express our thanks to those who helped with lights, sound, make-up and made our play a great success. A special thanks to our sponsor, Mr. Robert Hays, and our director, Miss Mary Ellen Matulka. ✓ «V Lirr|;ll'l;K iKb-lM-tiK The Junior Class of 1986-1987 presented Suitable for Hanging” on October 24, a three act Mystery-Comedy. If anybody had the whole world in a downhill pull it was Charlie Hackle (Mike Dorn), a lab assistant to Professor Gruber (David Fuerst) and Dr. Zapotka (John Kelso) two zany scientists who were on the verge of a giant discovery. The professors use Charlie in an experiment as their guinea hog, to perfect a serum that renders people from telling anything but the complete unvarnished truth. As the curtain opened we see that Charlie, who planned to marry Abby (Janel Kruse) is in a dither on his wedding day. However, this dither turned into a dazed dilemma. Roommate Sam Adams (Scott Schwartz), manager of the Wrenn sisters, Maxi (Leann Johnson) and Mini (Trisha Jelden), informs Charlie that the wedding was to have occurred “yesterday” and everyone was present but the groom. As it turned out he missed one other little item — one whole day of his life! That wasn't all that Charlie cannot account for. He discovered the body of a mysterious stranger named Grindstaff (Kendall Black) in his closet, and two new inhabitants in his apartment: a tall blonde, Tina (Shelly Hogeland), a ballerina beauty named Hilga (Kandy Hunt), and a bag filled with $100,000 in money and jewels. He was then confront- ed by a distraught fiance, her furious mother, Mrs. Raney (Tami Lindau) and his mother Mom Hackle (Regina Bun- ger), whom he left stranded at the ’airport. If that wasn’t enough along came Abby's father Frank Raney (Brent Nelson) and his assistant Bruno (Troy Space) with the gruesome evidence that Charlie is a murderer, kidnapper and thief.

The senior class, under the direction of Miss Matulka, presented the play “THE PHANTOM STRIKES AGAIN on May 13. The thrilling mystery-comedy took place in a gloomy old Castle, Wentz. It is in the reception room of this castle that all of the heirs of the late August Wentz gathered to hear the reading of his will, by Lawyer Grahm, (Mike Crouse). Only those heirs present on Friday, March 13th at midnight will receive an equal share of his estate. The heirs included the servents: Mrs. Kite, the housekeeper, (LaFona Dallmann), who continually sneaks around the house, and Went- worth, the butler, (Brent Nelson), who seems to be missing. The first to arrive is the nervous and frightened Mrs. Beeman, (Amy Jo DeJonge), and her giggly and scatter-brained daughter, Maybelle, (Tarcia Frerichs). Then comes the handsome mystery novelist, Mr. Preston, (Bob Alberts), with Gwen, his pretty secretary, (Amy Hinrichs), and likeable Bruser Barns, his bodyguard, (Chris Eynon). Next is Louise Thomas, the office worker, (Carol Hogeland) who seems to be a typical all American girl. The mystery is solved when the phantom (Darren Schenk) is unmasked.

After long hard weeks of preparation and dedication the Juniors changed the gym into an outdoor mansion theme, decorating it in blue, pink, and metallic silver. The evening began with a social hour for the parents of the Juniors and Seniors. The parents were treated to punch and hors d'oeuvres, while they viewed the beautiful decorations. Following social hour the Jun- iors, Seniors, and their dates, sat down to a delicious meal prepared by the mothers of the Junior class. The meal consisted of fruit slush, salad bar, prime rib, baked potato, corn and a frozen strawberry dessert, served by the sophomore servers who were dressed in French maid outfits and butler outfits to fit the classy occasion.
