Dressed in western attire from head to foot, the stranger drew closer, gun at his side, ready to be drawn in a second’s notice. His hat pulled far down over his eyes so only a shadow could be seen. Who was this person? As the stranger came closer, somehow he looked familiar ... ah, yes, a student from Lincoln High getting ready for the homecom- ing festivities, or was it prom? The 1980-81 school year seemed to be taking place out west with many students wearing cowboy boots and hats, and getting ready for homecoming and prom in that western atmosphere. Not only was the western scene evident at Lincoln, but other interesting events also took place. Uninterrupted Sustained Silent Reading (U.S.S.R.) was a new program during activity period to give everyone a chance to develop the habit of tak- ing the time to relax and enjoy reading.

Studies show, and it has been proven effective in many schools, that it increases your reading skills but will take a couple of years of everyone’s coopera- tion to show a positive result. D’Nealian manuscript and cursive was a new style of writing introduced to the lower grades. The transition is being made because of the easiness and legibility of this new style. In D’Nealian manuscript, all lines are made with a continuous stroke. Other programs em- phasize drawing slant lines and curved lines separately.

So that the studyhall people could have something to drink that was noncarbonated, a juice machine was purchased by the student council. (Vitamin C anyone?) Let’s push this one and see happens. As you are walking down the halls at Lincoln and hear a strange noise, don’t be alarmed ... it’s only the computer being used by the seventh and eighth grade math classes, algebra, advanced math I and II, and col- lege prep math. They use it to solve mathematical pro- blems by writing in programs. Presently, our terminal is hooked up to a base com- puter in Cedar Rapids, Grantwood Agency. ‘ Career Information Service of Iowa” is used by the counseling department to provide junior and senior high school students with current information on 290 ” aad jobs commonly performed by lowans. Lincoln Community School has purchased an Apple Il computer and is presently developing a library of soft- ware dises to use in guidance, counseling, and in mathematics. The computer hookup with Grant Wood will be terminated on May 1, 1981. The printer will be used with the Apple II for printed matter that students wish to save. Problem projects will be viewed on a TV = The apple II computer is an important tool in the é ve . . . aT MS WA technological field of computer programming.

Just as everything else is going up, so did the lunches at school increase. The cost of food and the reduction in government commodities is the reason for the increase. In order to break ‘‘even”’, the school has to stay within a certain average. They try to hold an average yearly balance, and so the cost of a lunch will vary from day to day. Since government commodities were reduced, the school has to go out on the open market and buy goods themselves which keep growing higher. They also have to figure in the electricity, time of cooks, and milk in the cost of a lunch. Sandwiches were also limited because of the increas- ing price of bread. Some students could probably eat half of a loaf of bread or more; then lunches would have to be increased again. There is a free-lunch program that the government sets up for families to apply for, but depends on the size of the family and their income. That’s incredible, Jill!

This year, instead of the fifth grade social studies class having a play, they had an Iowa History Fair where they made crafts, candles, and lanterns of the history of Iowa. They also had to make notebooks that included maps, graphs, location of cities and types of transportation. They did this project under the direc- tion of Mrs. Ruth Miller.

ONE LAST FLING On May 26, 1981, 38 seniors and 4 chaperones pulled out on a charter coach bus heading for Aqua Fin Resort at Lake of the Ozarks in Missouri. To help forget about the long ten-hour bus ride, time was spent sleeping, talking, or playing cards. Upon arriving, some went straight to the pool or just walked around looking at the different sites. Both days were free to do as you wished: swimming, canoeing, paddleboating, laying in the sun, shopping, riding the water slide, riding bumper cars, or skiing. Tuesday evening was the boat ride on the Tom Sawyer with a live band from Kansas City, The Straight Eights. Wednesday evening was Lee Mace’s Ozark Opry and because this was the last night before heading home, it was a late night for almost everyone; but it was rise and shine for all the next morning for the long ride home with memories of a wonderful two days. A LITTLE BIT OF SWEDEN Am I beautiful? Asa’s favorite pastime in America and Sweden. Lincoln's Cowgirl. Are you cold Asa? Asa’s busy schedule at school this year included American History, P.E., Spanish, Annual Staff, Ac- counting, Media Aide, Family Living, American Government, and Law. She was also manager for girls basketball. Being in school from 8:45 to 3:35 is not the same in Sweden; if you don’t have a class one hour, you may leave and come back when your next class is scheduled. Even though school took up a lot of Asa’s time, she still had other interests: listening to music, Corvettes and Firebirds, going out and having fun, and of course, her love of horses. When Asa gets back to Sweden, she will return to col- lege for one more year. Asa really liked the U.S. and thinks it’s a great country. Lincoln wishes you the best Asa’s American family: seated: Steve, Asa, Chris. Standing: Jo and Wayne of luck in the future, Asa. Brown. 8 AND A LITTLE OF BRAZIL Can I take this home with me? Wild and crazy. Chico’s favorite class. Chico Sa from Brazil, while attending Lincoln second semester, lived with the Ron and Marilyn Skow family. Studying Math, Spanish, Physics, Reading, and Art kept him busy, but he still had time for baseball and track. Chico’s favorites are pizza, rock music, and the color blue, but his American favorites are girls and cars. His hobby is ““capoeira’’ which means karate. In Brazil, school starts at 7:45 and runs till 12:45, so it is unusual for Chico to be attending classes until Sta. Chico really liked the United States and would like to come back; but upon returning to Brazil, he will study again. We at Lincoln wish you the best of luck, Chico.

HOMECOMING ’80 Homecoming °80 came to Lincoln the week of October 10. The theme was western. Mon- day brought everyone dressed in their pagamas and carrying teddy bears for Pajama and Security Day. Tuesday was 50’s Day and Wednesday was the day for clashing and wear- ing crazy glasses. Thursday, Lincoln went western for Urban Cowboy Day and Friday was the traditional Black and White Day with the yell “Beat the Raiders!” heard throughout the halls. The parade was held in Stanwood with the pep rally and bonfire following. This year’s Grand Marshall, Asa Bergstrom, honored our Homecoming Court, from Left to Right: Kandy Thomson, Karl Koch, Sara Kueh- 1980 parade. nle, Mark Jurgensen, Julie Moneypenny, Ron Kurth, Mary Weber, Craig Kleppe, and Asa Bergstrom.

Afterwards the Pep Club put on a skit made up of jokes about the senior football players, the assistant coaches and the “devoted Iowa Hawk fan” Coach Stamp. Some of the highlights of the seniors were Karl Koch’s imitations of Mr. Stamp and the “macho” act of Ken Koob. After this came the part people had been debating about all day who would be King and Queen? This year’s candidates were Julie Moneypenny and Karl Koch, Sara Kuehnle and Mark Jurgensen, Mary Weber and Craig Kleppe, Kandy Thomson and Ron Kurth. Out of all these, Julie Moneypenny and Ron Kurth were crowned. Last year’s Queen, Lori Grimm, was present to hand the crown over to Julie. 2: Julie and Lori — A pair of Queens. Sponsored by: R. B.

The King and Queen, along with the rest of the court, were announced, as were last year’s King and Queen, Mark Procter and Lori Grimm and this year’s prince and princess, Brad Thumma and Christine Boots. After the announcements and presenta- tions, Ron and Julie danced the King and Queen’s dance with the rest of the court joining them a little later. Combined with the big win over East Central, all this year’s Homecoming activities will bring back many special memories to everyone at Lincoln. _ = wy Sats YY my - : ‘ ‘ate “Just watching the guys go by!” + ° vr os Lap, .

This year’s prom committee was resided over by the junior class officers: Kim Shriver, Greg Wagner, Suzy Grimm, and Beth Proctor. The other members were Penny Brown, Dale Kruse, Carla Boysen, Esthyr Ropa, Shelly Scott, Greg Taylor, Terry Schnipkoweit, and Kristie Weber. Western was the theme with the motto being “Trails To Our Horizons.”” Prom °81 was held at Highway Gardens and began with a banquet at 6:30. The program began with the welcome by the junior class president Kim Shriver and the response by senior class president, Julie Moneypenny. Following the invocation and dinner came the junior class pro- Haney trae yous. . phecy and the senior class will. Earlier this year the juniors took a vote on what ee kind of entertainment they were to have after the banquet. They decided on a Q103 disc jockey at the dance, and then to have the movie “Coal Miner’s Daughter.” Mr. Wendel, are you enjoying your TWO scoops of ice cream? TRAILS TO Enjoying a slower song. A couple of couples. Many people turned out for the dance and everyone enjoyed themselves. Since most of the guys played pool and the other games that were available, many of the girls chose other partners to dance with: a group of other girls, one of their best girlfriends, or the male dummy that was part of the props. Sara Kuehnle and Madonna Ran- dolph provided the excitement by putting on the guns and bandanas from the props and holding up everyone attending. Not many signed up for the movie, but twice as many decided to stay after it got underway despite the cold temperatures which were fought off by blankets and heavy coats. The western prom of 1981 was one that will bring back many good memories to all. No, this is not the Hunt dinner table! Ladies Night. Voted the best couple at prom.

The Lincoln FFA has been very busy this year. Under the leadership of the officers, with the ad- visor, Mr. Quint, the members worked to improve their knowledge in Agriculture and helped the chapter grow. The year started by crushing herbicide cans with the can crusher the members built in July; Cedar County Fair meant livestock shows for some and the job of manure removal for others in August. Later in the summer was more showing of livestock at the lowa State Fair. The start of school brought a flurry of success from the Pork Center Market Hog Show and the Market Beef Show. The test plot which was managed by the senior members was harvested, and then all members joined in the rat bait and fruit sales. In November, six members traveled to the National Convention, at which Jeff Schnipkoweit received the title for the National Profi- ciency Award. 1981 brought with it the Parent Chili Supper and the FFA Sweetheart Dance. It meant hard work for members going into Sub-district, district, and state competition. The year ended with a Parent-Member Banquet and the election of new officers for the year of 1981-82. NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY On Thursday, April 30th, at 10:00 a.m., the gym was filled with students and parents. The occasion was the initiation into National Honor Society. The Society members must have an average grade point in excess of 3.00 and are also considered on their service, leader- ship, and character. The assembly started out with the three different groups entering in their rank order; graduating members, regular members, and_proba- tionary members. Then Mr. Grimm gave a speech ex- plaining exactly what being in National Honor Society means and what one must do to become a member. Each of the graduating members followed up with a short speech on what service, leadership, character, and scholarship means to you both in high school and throughout your life. The assembly continued with Mr. Grimm calling each member up to the podium to receive his congratulations and to be recognized by membership cards for everyone in the Society, pins for the regular members and the assurance of a special seal to be placed on their diplomas at graduation. After a short conclusion by Mr. Grimm, everyone was served refreshments which ended the ceremony.

Past Mary Weber This year’s Pep Club, lead by secretary Mary Weber and President Julie Moneypenny, had a big disadvan- tage when compared to other years. Since Lincoln’s conference changed to include such schools as Preston and East Central, Pep Club members had to endure long bus rides to get to and from games. Although they were long, few of the rides were boring. During football season, Mr. Linder kept the busses occuped by leading Sec.-Treas. and Julie Moneypenny president the group in many different songs and cheers, and other times the members kept busy by catching up on some much needed sleep. The annual pizza party was held on October 16 when Lincoln played Preston. The big event that night was the pizza-eating contest between Mary Weber, Suzy Grimm, and Lisa Kurth. Although it was a close race, Lisa Kurth came out as the winner, eating a total of 10 % pieces of Happy Joe’s Pizza!

Along with the beginning of the school year came a new band director who had lots of new plans and ideas. September and October found the marching band diligently working out routines for the home football games; their performances at the halftimes were ex- citing and enjoyable. As the winter band season came around, the concert and jazz bands played their hearts out, and therefore, made quite an impression on their audiences. The highlight of the year for the jazz band was taking first place at the Washington Jazz Festival. Julie Moneypen- ny was selected outstanding soloist of the festival. The most memorable moment for the concert band was receiving a “I” at Large Group Contest. Our 1980-81 band was truly a “‘class act.”” Good guys in black! Members of the Marching Band Are — Shery!

After long weeks of hard practice and a lot of sweat and work, the Lincoln Choral Dept. traveled to Preston to participate in the Small Group contests. This was a record setting year as the kids brought home a whopping number of I’s, 21 in all. They also brought back 15 II’s and 3 III's. That day seemed so long but it was well worth it. A special thanks is given to the pianists who helped at the contest. Those who were students were Suzy Grimm, Mary Weber, Lynn Hoffman, and Kelly Oxley. The adults from the community that played were Margaret Proctor, Jo Brown, and Lenore Speer. Two Unlike Duets received II's Chris and Matt, Suzy and Terry. These were other groups that got I's. Yes, it takes more than good looks to get in All-State. This year, the Lincoln Choral Department w as very fortunate to have three students selected to the 1980 lowa All-State Chorus. For Dale Kruse (tenor), this was his se- cond year with the chorus while Karen Langenberg (alto) and Kim Shriver (soprano) made it for their first time.

With both the seventh and eighth grade under a new coach, the season was quite successful for the eighth graders. The girls ended up with a 5-1 record, getting beaten only by Clarence-Lowden. With a strong offense as a key to the girls’ victories, their defense had the biggest improvements. The seventh grade had a tougher time this season with a 1-5 record. Being first game experiences for the seventh graders, much of the time was spent working on fundamen- tals. Hopefully, the newly acquired skills will stay with the girls through the year to start next season where this one left off. 7th Grade Lost to Calamus Lost to Wheatland Lost to Lisbon Lost to Lisbon Win over Midland Lost to Clarence-Lowden 8th Grade Win over Calamus Win over Wheatland Win over Lisbon Win over Lisbon Win over Midland Lost to Clarence-Lowden Sponsored by: CLARENCE CO-OPERATIVE COMPANY, Clarence JR.

The 1980 Season of softball certainly was a year of achievements as the Fighting Pantherettes finished second in conference standings behind Bennett. This was the most successful team in the history of Lincoln softball. Many games were won, or lost, in extra innings. This proved that the girls had a lot of determination and gusto. Their gusto paid off as sectional play rolled around. Finishing second in sectional action and advane- ing to first round of districts, where the girls were defeated by 3A class team Cedar Rapids Washington, the Pantherettes really showed what they were made of. Senior pitcher Becky Sheldon, who led the Pan- therettes to their victorious season, was chosen Ist team All-Conference. Along with her was sophomore outfielder Suzy Grimm. Chosen as 2nd team players were senior first baseman, Sandy Hoy, and junior catcher, Chris Brown. Finishing the season with honorable mention were freshman shortstop, Angie Block, and sophomore out- fielder, Kristie Weber. Hoy, Sheldon, Brown, and Grimm also received state honors. Chosen by teammates as Most Valuable Player was Becky Sheldon. Other honors included Most Improved Upperclassman, Chris Brown; Most Im- proved Underclassman, Jane Kuehnle; Honorary Co-Captains, Sheldon and Sandy Hoy; and receiv- ing the Huckledebuck award was Vonda Meyer.

This was the first time the Panthers were champions since 1969 when they were 19-9. This year we were 13-6 overall and 7-2 in the conference. This season was highlighted by senior pitching of Kurt Ox- ley, who broke a record, striking out 99 batters in 55 innings. This was a great average of almost 2 strike outs per inning. Hitting was one of our major powers as we had Mark Proctor smashing a .369 and Kurt Oxley con- tributing with .355.

The teams most exciting game was played at Wilton. The Panthers defeated the state tournament bound Beavers 11-3. The players greatly enjoyed the play of our foreign exchange student, Hisao Fukuda, as he mastered his play at first base this season. ““Winning the con- ference was the highlight of the season even though we lose 9 seniors from the squad,” was a comment from Coach Jackson. The JV squad finished 4-2, winning their last four games. The Taylor boys heat’n up! Another run comes across!

Vernon In- vitational, 2nd at the Lincoln Invitational, Ist at the Wilton Invitational, and champions of the newly formed Mid-East Conference. Our ““‘diggers’’ went undefeated in conference ac- tion, and all six starting members were con- ference selections. Those making lst team were Suzy Grimm, Kristie Weber, and Kathy Gut- wiler. 2nd team honors went to Vonda Meyer, and Chris Brown and Angie Block received honorable mention. Those receiving honors from their team- mates were Pam Goldsmith Most Improved Underclassman, Sara Kuehnle Greatest Morale Booster, Suzy Grimm Most Valuable Player, and taking two honors was Chris Brown Most Improved Up- perclassman and Team Captain. This team should be proud of their accomplishments. They proved they could handle what was given to them, and with 5 returning letterwinners, Lincoln is heading for some pretty exciting volleyball in future years. All State selections, Kristie and Suzy use team work to give Mt. Ver- non a six pack. “Are ya ready?” “YEH!” “LET'S GO!!! All Conference Selections are, from Top to Bottom: Kristie Weber, Suzy Grimm, Angie Block, Kathy Gutwiler, Chris Brown, and Vonda Meyer.

DURANT: We start the new season against a newly coached team. We did well as Kleppe threw two TD’s and ran one in himself. Greg Taylor catches three passes for 109 yards. Our first casualty, Ken Koob, on the third play of the game, breaks his leg. Many heart-stopping moments as we prevail 24-14. Tired but happy bunch of Panthers. GUTTENBERG: We head to the conference opener and the Pirates wear us down. Griffith captures three Pirate fumbles. Uninspired 30-0 loss. Sophs spell doom in their opener 22-6. Long bus ride home. MIDLAND: Our third straight road trip and the culmination of “Technique Week.” Offense generates over 200 yards yet we finish with seven points. Marty Hunt has excellent game at nose as do Griffith and Merfeld at tackle. We lose another Panther as Todd Rouse breaks an ankle and we go down in defeat 27-7. OLIN: We're home at last! Penalty bug bites us for 110 yards. Deron Jurgensen and Matt Grimm play well for ailing starters. Passing game goes for 133 yards as Harberts grabs 8 passes for 63 yards. We manage 295 yards total offense to win 26-0. Kurth and Koch are in on 32 tackles. Third straight parent’s night win. Bring on Lisbon. LISBON: A happy Lisbon homecoming for us! A great goal line stand proves to be the turning point. Schnipkoweit has greatest game of his life as he garners 15 solo and 4 assisted tackles. Emotional, well played, hard-fought victory, 12-6. This boosts us over the .500 mark and our HOMECOM- ING next. EAST CENTRAL: Things look shakey in the first quarter. Lightning strikes as Kleppe intercepts on the 24 yard line and scoots 76 hash marks for a school record and a score. A Kurth touchdown on a “guard around” is yet another thrilling moment.

We threaten many times but six intercep- tions and a fumble are too costly as we fall 18-0. We head back home to see if we can capture a winning season. CLARENCE-LOWDEN: Final conference game. Griffith and Kurth have good defensive games, and we do a job on C-L’s one two punch of Stolte and Holst. Two late field goals went awry in desperation as we go down again 7-6. One last shot at a winning season on senior night next. WILTON: Senior night is a wild score-a-thon. We trail at half 14-0 and come back with 27 in the second half but fall short los- ing 38-27. Junior Mike Weiland runs well in first real test and gains 88 yards in 14 carries. Kurth shatters the assisted tackle mark for single season and career. Senior Coy Wagner is yet another casualty in what was destined to become an injury-laden season. We end at 4-5, yet still T-N-T! LINCOLN GRAPPLERS Top Left: Marlatt pins Mediapolis 112 pounder.

However, the win-loss record didn’t show the amount of hard work and time contributed by the girls. Each day was spent trying to build skills and techniques for a good future. With a lot of work and hustle, the group of girls that will be returning next year can turn Lincoln’s basketball pro- gram around Post season honors went to Mary Weber, chosen as Most Valuable Player and Co-Captain by her teammates and coaches. Suzy Grimm was selected as the other Co- Captain. Both Grimm and Weber were named to All Conference teams. Grimm was selected as an Honorable Mention Forward, and Weber was selected as a Second Team Guard. Deanna Wendt was chosen as Most Im- proved Varsity Player, and Ann Jurgensen was selected as Most Improved Junior Varsity Player. Other honors went to Kandy Thomson, who was chosen Miss Hustle by her teammates and coaches, and to Lisa Kurth, who was chosen Best Practice Player by her teammates and coaches.

The Panthers finished 6th in the con- PA i HERS ference with a record of 4-10. Many games this season were lost by ten or less points which brought out a lot of disappointment. Many records this season were broken due to the good quickness of the guards and good capabilities of the post men. Six seniors will be graduating, but due to injuries many underclassmen had SEASO chances to play leaving next year’s team with some good experience. } NCO, | Oa! } Ww, 10 if + @ Front Row: Jake Sheldon, Scott St. John, Greg Taylor, Phil Railsback, Coach Gary Nelson.

With Ronnie Kurth being the Most Valuable Trackster and Keith Jones the Most Improved Underclassman, the boys track team came in fourth in the Mid- East Conference, second at the Rebel Relays at Northeast, and second at the Jensen Relays at Lincoln. Some highlights of the season were: Robert Boysen getting a 10:37 in the 3200m (two mile) and a 4:53 in the 1600m (one mile), and Phil Railsback being a state qualifier in the pole vault. CHEERLEADING The role of the cheerleader is changing today because there are so many other interests in junior and senior high school. The squads are becoming smaller, and _ the cheerleaders are having to work harder to increase school spirit in the community. Some of the activities of the cheerleaders included pep rallies, pep skits, homecoming festivities, a spaghetti supper and halftime enter- tainment. Many squad members at- tended the state tournaments in Des Moines. As a fund raiser this year, the cheerleaders had a bake sale at the Lincoln Invitational Wrestling Tourney. Many freshly baked goods, especially the homemade doughnuts, made it a big success. . Bottom Row: Cheryl Whitman, Mary Weber. Middle Row: Madonna Randolph, Lynn Hoff- man, Lori Greene.
