This one was no different! A quality unique to the 77- 78 year was the willingness to look and listen to new ideas and suggestions. Since many teachers taught both junior high as well as high school classes, the junior high classes were moved to the Johnson building. The schedule was also expanded to eight peri- ods mainly enabling the band to have more practice time. Some students were also able to take more classes. 2 Pam Lunzmann races up from (he band room (o her next class. 0 F0 QJGGGSflONC Todd LaVignc. John Teten. and Rod Remmers lake over kitchen duties during the Senior class soup supper. Isn't that a switch?!! Because of the trouble with the bell system at the start of the year, bells to dis- miss and resume classes were abandoned for some time. Included in the new schedule was over 40 min- utes for the noon hour. This was a mixed blessing for students, depending on where they stood in the long lunch line. Later in the year the stu- dent council was able to get approval for a pop machine on a trial basis. Students could take a break from studying to go to the pop machine for part of their study hall. These are just a few sug- gestions that were given a chance, with the objective of making the education that students at J-B receive the best possible and also the most rewarding. 3 The close of 1977 marked the first nationwide attempt of farmers to hand together to trv to improve their lot. The concept of a nation- wide strike originated in Springfield. Colorado, and was put to the test begin- ning on December 14. Local farmers participated in rallies, tractor-cades and established strike offices. Farmers nationwide were asking for I009f parity, a concept that was based on prices during 1910-1914. when those living in the country and those in town were thought to be as nearly, equal in purchasing power as they have ever been. Several farmers from the area made trips to Washington D.C. to lobby for farm legislation. A well known leader of the “Amer- ican Agriculture Move- ment' was Mr. Stan DeBoer from Bertrand. Nebraska. Some other important events that will be remem- bered were: (1) Steps in the Middle East toward peace were taken when Egyptian President Anwar Sadat met with Isralie President Menachem Begin for the first time. (2) The Panama Canal treaties became a controversial issue when President Jimmy Carter introduced them, with an objective of giving eco- nomic control of the canal to Panama. (3) Deaths that shocked the nation were: Bing Crosby. Hurbert Humphrey. Guy Lombardo and Elvis Presley. (4) The movie Star Wars brought imagination back to the the- ater. creating a star wars mania. (5) The recording by Debbie Boone of “You Light Lp My Life became a giant hit. (6) Bumper stickers were a fashionable way to express ideas or one's beliefs. “Keep the Canal Give’em Carter!???” was one sticker seen fre- quently along the highway. parking areas of Auburn’s shopping center, fanners publicized their plight and protests. Despite summer drought, southeast Nebraska still ran short of box cars and elevators were forced to store grain on the ground.

RIGHT A wave of seed corn hats tells Washington D.C. that the farmers are in town! « In a few minutes we will have a complete rundown on the school closings we have available . . This became a familiar phrase to J-B students in January and February of ’78. School was cancelled for 7 days, the most encountered since Johnson and Brock have consolidated. With bliz- zards covering nearly all of the country, roads were blown shut almost as soon as they were opened. Paula LaGuardia is all bundled up and ready to glide down the hill. For a total of four weeks the five day school week became obsolete. Although a vacation is nice, pressures were being felt by everyone because time for many events and classes had been shortened. Added to these pressures was the unpleas- ant thought of making up days in the spring. On the other hand, no one complained about the chance to' sleep late, or an extra day to finish home- work. The fun-loving feel- ing in all of us came out when we had the chance to make snowmen, sleigh ride, snowballs, throw snowmo- bile, or just to look at the unique designs made by nature in the snow. 7 TUB U JVUB DOlUBlUINGC DO I Emotions run high dunng the exciting Weeping Water basketball game. For most of us, high school is a time to do the things we want to do the way we want to do them. There is nothing that matches the fun of being a little crazy once in a while. Like the night one third of the high school (the pep club) had a slumber party in the old gym, eating popcorn, telling ghost sto- ries, and making human pyra- mids. Or, when another third of the high school (the J-B club) took off for a Kansas City Chiefs football game, and later dined in style at the “Swiss Chalet.” There are more ordinary ways we have fun, too. Such as, every- one enjoys stacking lockers once in a while. Then there is the thrill of yelling till hoarse for the team, even if the score looks dismal. And there are always things like: complaining about every- thing, picking on freshmen, searching for excuses to skip study hall, handing in late A papers, keeping secrets secret, getting teachers off the subject, • discussing the latest issues, or just going up town. i� LEFT: Todda Simpson.

Johnson-Brock High School has enough enthu- siasm, spirit, pride and participation to match any learning institution with higher numbers. The newly established chess team, ranked first in class D competition in the state (in order to win they defeated some class A schools.) The business team placed second at the Peru Business Contest. The speech team sent eight people on to state competition. One student was given a nomination to the West Point Acad- emy. There are more advan- tages to being smaller, like, not being another face in the crowd. The faculty to student ratio is 10 to 1. Individuals are very important and everyone is given a chance to try more than one thing.

Ribbons were printed and dis- tributed to those who placed in their events. They also enjoyed a field trip to Lincoln where they visited the capital, governor’s mansion and the zoo. Each grade had their own separate band and together they gave two excellent cho- ral concerts.

Cedar chests, picnic tables and stock racks were just three of the many projects which juniors and sophomores made in shop and trades and industry class. The big snow storms seemed to make the school year go slowly. But there were smiles on many faces when school was called off because of too much snow. Most were not happy when it was dis- covered that the school year would be finished by going on a Saturday, to make up for the seven snow days.

The band took advantage of this early in the fall when they began practicing for the Plattsmouth Marching Contest that hadn't been attended by J-B since 1973. The band spent many hours practicing and memorizing music, then moving on to marked streets, to the football field, and finally to Platts- mouth for one final chance, where they received a 2 + rating. But they didn't give up. they came back to the grindstone and worked hard to do better. They rehearsed for parades, two concerts, and District Music Contest where they gave an all out effort and received a superior rating. Johnson-Brock sponsored the 1978 Honor Band again this year, and 20 students from J-B partici- pated. The band, under the direction of Mr. Ken Molzer from Papillion gave an outstanding concert to parents and friends of the different conference bands. LEFT: TOP: Kris Wakelin. Lon Remmers.

They spent many hours the last few weeks cramming for a concert and music contest. Mrs. Milstead showed a lot of patience this year in trying to keep 87 members’ interest and attention. But the final perform- ance. District Music Contest, proved that her patience was all worthwhile. The kids surprised everyone and really sang out. They received an excellent rating, with the judges main complaint being they sang too loud. LEFT: J-Bonaires perform for the applauding audience. CHORI S: FRONT ROW Jenny Stutheit. Wendy Shuey.

J-Bonaires — what do they do? Sure they sing, but they do a lot more than just sing. The group has a way of making people forget their worries, and they can turn sad people into happy people, and they even spread the word of God in their own beautiful language when they sing at churches. The group worked hard all year practicing and memorizing songs so they could sing at churches, perform at concerts, and prepare themselves for contest. What do they get for all their hard work? The joy of helping people and making their lives more happy and worthwhile. They also have the satisfaction of knowing they have the power to do all this, and still be doing something they enjoy. 42 QA(9B BAND OMNGC STAGEBAND MEMBERS: Kathy Gerking. Teresa Oestmann.

Stagehand . . . what an experience it was for all the members involved this year. The group took a trip up to Lincoln to play for The Morning Show, and as a result, the stagehand was shown on T.V. on three different occasions. Performances were also made at band concerts throughout the year. Don’t let this fool you though, it wasn’t all fun. The members had to listen, learn, and practice a lot to make themselves outstandingly better than their com- petitors. Contest, an anxious time of the year for all the stagehand members. A time to take criticism, and a time to start getting nervous as the day draws nearer. Finally, the day arrives. They feel proud and confi- dent; and when they get there, they do nothing but their best. But then that’s no surprise. They did their best throughout the entire year.

These groups all received superior ratings for their hard work and effort. To these music groups the word contest meant learning their music, practicing for hours, and even performing in front of audi- ences. Then as the day grows closer, they start getting nervous, and confidence is gained from fellow friends and students. ITS HERE! The day they’ve been waiting for, contest.

J-B STUDENTS BRAINS AND WENT OONTESTWTNNERS Studying . . . could there possibly be any advan- tages in it? Many J-B students this year seem to think there is. Being a scholastic winner is both rewarding and something to be proud of. It comes from responsibil- ity, dedication, and a lot of hard work. A Peru business contest is held annually, and the best students from all the business classes in J-B attended. This took a lot of practice, work, and long hours of studying on their own. Many schools attend, but the students of J-B pulled out with 2nd place, which was a very rewarding moment for all the stu- dents involved. 45 wnuAUntBUBip, Active J-B students, elected from each class have been busy representing the ideas of their community, and of fellow classmates. The result of their hard work, a lot of talking and nerve, brought about our new addition, “the Pop Machine.” Petitioning was also popular, a petition was signed and passed to keep the J-B students tuned into the outside world. This was done by keeping the daily newspaper in the library where everyone could find it. The council members found their position fun. exciting.and . . .“yes”. . .even worthwhile.

To lis- ten and learn at convocations that were both worthwhile and beneficial to the students and their future. Learning of the reptile world from Mr. Naidl was a scary experience we had at a convocation towards the beginning of the year. At two other convocations we learned about the future, and what it has in store for us, and about ourselves as individuals. A convocation held on Veterans day was a time to be seri- ous. and a time to show respect. An Easter convocation was given to celebrate or remind us of Easter’s true meaning. Acting and speaking were shown in a convocation pre- sented by the Convenant Players, who come to show us what they could do, and by speech class who did an exceptionally good performance. The convocations proved to be both fun and inter- esting; and something was learned from all of them. TOP: Mr. Naidl shows that the frightening tarantula spider isn’t harmful when drugged.

They cheered every football game but one. in the rain. But the rain didn't stop their enthusiasm, they went right on yelling and proved that their pride and dedication were strong and couldn't be stop- ped by a little rain. The Pep Club worked hard together this year to make it a suc- cessful year. It was tougher than normal because of the new game requirements. The girls were only required to attend twelve Basket- ball games and many times only five or six girls attended. It was tough bqt we stuck together and made this year a success.

It was difficult to get every- one together, and a lot of individual effort was shown at their weekly Tuesday night meetings where there were times to be serious . . . original . . . and of course, to have a little fun. But it was an especially good time to hurry up and think of some brain-storming ideas, so that the annual would turn out better than it ever has before. At the end of the year, when the hard work on the annual is finally finished, the staff members feel relief, satisfaction, and a lot of pride. ANNUAL STAFF: FRONT ROW: John Teten.

Their dedication brings long hours of practicing lines, one line after another. Hard work in research, deciding how to move your hands and when to move your feet. Getting all the criticism you can from family, friends, and your instructor. Then as the day they’ve worked hard for arrives, they find cour- age in others, and build confi- dence in themselves. Their com- petition either brings victory or defeat. They learn their faults then start all over again. In the end, the work paid off for the speech team.

It seemed as if we couldn't play a game with- out a rainstorm. The team played four out of eight games in pouring rain. Even though it was not a successful year as far as the scoreboard showed, the boys continued through- out the season with great determination.

The girls played Auburn early in the season, (who later went on to be a Class “B” State tournament qualifier) and lost by two buckets. The backdoor play executed by Janice Dunekacke and Jeannette Gauc- hat helped them come from behind, but the clock ran out. With the onset of sprained ankles, colds, broken fingernails, a gashed eye, and a popped knee proved a very costly year for the medicine kit. After some of these games the girls felt like victims and accomplices of foul play. But why does she play? Because after the game there’s that good feeling of being part of something. Jumping up and down, hugging people, or maybe having a good cry. Yes, the kid with the basketball is a girl. SENIORS BOTTOM ROW: Todda Simpson. Jeannette Gauchat, Janice Dunekacke.

A lot of questions were raised about the title like “Why can't I drink the water. Mommy?” The play was done a little differently this year — instead of doing it on the stage and having the audience below the action, it was staged on the floor and the audience was above the action. The stage area was circular and the audience was seated on risers and the bleachers around it. The actors and actresses had to work with the audience surrounding them on all sides — they really had to watch it or they'd find themselves going around and around in cir- cles.

The Juniors decided that since they knew the theme this early, it should be changed. “Jungle Love was chosen. For the remaining weeks before prom, the Juniors tried hard to let the Seniors think that “Saturday Night Fever was still the theme. Prom started at 7:30 Saturday night. April 15th, 1978. Some Juniors came early to see the surprised faces of the Seniors as they walked in the door and saw the theme was “Jungle Love.” Everyone sat down to a delicious meal catered by Mrs. Beulah Patton, Syracuse. They were waited on by sophomores dressed in “Tarzan and Jane” suits. After the supper, the his- tory of the Senior class was read, as were the wills and the pro- phecies. After the program was finished, the tables were moved for the dance. The music was provided by Stoneflighi.

A nice thing about this idea was that the throne com- mittee did not have to search for an actual throne — they could just use the bleacher step, covered with a red bedspread for the seat. The only problem was that there was hardly enough room for the King and Queen to sit there. It was a tight squeeze, but they made it! There was no speaker this year. With all the awards presented, there really wasn't enough time for a speaker — not without half of the stu- dent body becoming bored, anyway. The awards given included: Certificates of Merit for participation in Band. Chorus, Speech team. Musical Small Groups, or a Sport; Ath- letic Letters; All-Conference Awards; Charms for participation in Annual Staff; Trophies for the State Chess Tournament and the Peru Busi- ness Contest were shown; and the Outstanding Senior Awards given.
