Sliding down the stairs is a definite no-no at Lincoln “‘We don’t do that here at Lin- coln,” was a saying that was started by senior Ben Griffith and continued on by the rest of the students. What are you trying to hide, Mike? LET’S FACE IT Caught in the act. “Ain’t | cute?” “Give me a break!” — e Jeff looks on at the state tournament.

Carolyn Albaugh is a second grade teacher who helps the students achieve a full year’s growth in all of the basics. With a special lear ning trip to the Abbe Creek country school where a half day's classes were held, the students dressed up in old time clothing, and had an old fashioned lunch. The students also enjoyed visiting the bakery and going on a nature hunt at the Palisades RODNEY ANDERSON ... Rodney Anderson is a new teacher on the elementary staff who teaches music. Each year he is responsible for prepar- ing Christmas and Spring programs for the community's enjoyment SB SARA CORBIN ... Sara Corbin is a second grade teacher; she works with about 15 students.

Dorothy Ferguson teaches first graders beginn- ing reading, writing, and math skills. Besides all of these basics, the first graders enjoyed career talks and trips to the library, zoo, and the visits from the policeman and doctor PATTI FONTEYNE... Patti Fonteyne is the Title 1 teacher at the elementary center. She teaches reading and math to the kids who need a little more of the teacher's help than the other’s might need MARTHA HARRINGTON .. . This brave lady has the awesome job of teaching art to kids in grades 1-6. She has her students working on painting, drawing, and even carv ing totem poles. The students also learn about art history; on the sub ject they have numerous films, lectures, and reports. All these things help the students learn what art has meant through the years, and it also helps them expand their creative talents. ROBERT HEYER... Robert Heyer teaches 6th grade Language Arts, which includes English, Reading, and Social Studies. His students were busy as beavers this year. They wrote their own commercials and presented them to the other classes; they also wrote stories and drew illustrations for them, then they placed them around the school so that others could see and enjoy them RUTH ANNE MILLER... Ruth Miller teaches fifth grade Language Arts and Social Studies. The students were sure to have an exciting year with a class in Pioneer Crafts correlating with lowa History, an lowa History Fair, and many projects where students got to make candles, lanterns, and to weave and quilt. They also had a fun trip to Des Moines where they went to the Des Moines Historical Museum, the state capitol, and the Science Center CONNIE INMANN ... Connie Inmann teaches all the subjects in first grade which includes language, reading, spelling, writing, math, literature, social studies, and science. She and her first graders were busy this year with speakers and many creative projects and fieldtrips to Hutton’s fish store and to Beaver Park Zoo BETTY LONG...

Gary Nelson is the pys. ed. teacher at the elementary center. This class also includes gun safety and first aid. There were many field trips this year for the gym classes: one to Cook’s Hardware to look at guns for gun safety and going to the fire station for first aid. There was also a quest-speaker, a conservation officer, who spoke on gun safety. MARGARET SADEGHPOUR .. . Mrs. Sadeghpour is the Science teacher for grades 4-6. Making scientific discoveries kept these students busy this year. The 4th grade looked at fossils, the 5th made bread and collected leaves, and the 6th made insect collections and experimented with white rats in nutrition. Classtime is taken up with % “hands on, ’ and % reading, writing, talking, and experimenting. KATHLEEN SAUER ... Kathleen Sauer teaches fourth, fifth, and sixth grade math which includes learning and practicing adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing numbers. Each grade did a special learning unit on metric measurement, and the sixth graders did a unit on money and banking in which they were able to visit the Mechanicsville Trust and Savings Bank and the Merchants National Bank of Cedar Rapids KAREN STEFFEN ... Karen Steffen teaches fourth grade with subjects in reading, language arts, and social studies. You can take my picture. Elementary students enjoy recess. Ig Wi ART... Mr. Corbin’s art classes are the highpoint of the day for anyone who takes art. This class not only enhances whatever artistic skill you may have, but also shows that even the most crudest of drawers can create a masterpiece (or come close anyway) “The main purpose of art is for students to develop the means and abili- ty to express themselves visually,” at least that’s what Mr. Corbin says “Mr. C”’ as he was nicknamed by his students, has his hands full with over a hundred students in 6 periods, all in various stages of art, either art 1, 2. 3, or 4 Students have a large variety of projects to choose from that are in- teresting and make a div sion from monotonous school life. A new fine- point airbrush, and an oxy-gas torch for brasswork has increased the ac- tivities that can be done this year Mr. Corbin gives Tammy some tips on developing pictures BUSINESS... Business classes, taught by Mrs. Lambert, prepare students for the world of work. There are five business classes: Typing 1 and 2, Accounting, Office Train- ing, and Shorthand. Because of the very low enrollment in the Shorthand class, it had to be dropped this year in order to accommodate the large enrollment of Typ- ing 1 students. Most of the Business classes work on their own to develop their skill for minimum requirements. There has been an increasing enrollment for Typ- ing classes, and Mrs. Lambert hopes that the interest in these classes continue. Kim and Mrs. Lambert wrestle with the film loader. ANNUAL... This year was the first year the entire annual staff was in the same class (excluding the photographers). There was always something to be done all year — from fieldtrips to selling ads to meeting deadlines (which took up about 150% of everybody's time). It wasn’t all work and no play, though. A Christmas chili supper and a cookout in the Spring were both at Mrs. Lambert's (our sponsor) house. The main thing we learn on the Annual Staff is that there’s more to putting together a year- book than taking pictures. The hardest part of the year was the selling of the ads which along with the book sales finances your yearbook. . | io ‘ | may = ' The Annual Staff and Photographers: First Row From Left: Anita Rigby, Pam Brown, Stacey McAtee, Lisa Techau, Jane Kuehnle, Darcie Schnipkoweit, and Alesia Domer. Middle Row: Jill Hutchinson, Greg Taylor, Joe Inmann, Brad Young, Dave Steuart, and Mike St. John. Third Row: Karen Dohmen, Tammy Klemme, Kim Shriver, Carol McAtee, Carla Boysen, Esthyr Ropa, Vonda Meyer, and Mrs. Lambert. BUILDING AND TRADES... “316 Sunset Drive” is where you can find the accomplishment of the 1982 B T class. The house is a split foyer, three-bedroom ranch, 1400 sq. ft. with two full baths upstairs, a large country-style kitchen, complete- ly carpeted, and a basement garage. There were seven senior students who worked on the construction of the house under the instruction of Mr. Wendel. They worked the last three periods of each school day to complete the house. Unfortunately, this class will not be offered next year due to lack of funding. Mr. Wendel works too. . Building this year’s house were: Brad Marlatt, Jeff Davidson, Doug East, How wide, Mike? Bruce Flockhart, Ben Griffith, Mike Weiland and David Steuart. Do it right guys! Looks good to me! FOREIGN LANGUAGE ... Here at Lincoln we only have one foreigh language offered, which is Spanish, or Espanol to anyone who has taken Spanish. There are three dif- ferent classes of Spanish: Spanish 1, 2, and 3. There is also a Spanish 4, but it is a self-directed course of study and is not offered for credit. Mrs. Young is the teacher for all the Spanish classes; she has added Spanish 3 and 4 this year. There were twelve people in Spanish this year: six in Spanish 1, four in Spanish 2, two in Spanish 3, and one auditing Spanish 4. This year there was something different, a Spanish Honor Society (Socidad de Honore Hispanica). Those initiated were: Beth Proc- tor of Spanish 4; Kristie Weber and Robin Baxa of Spanish 3; and Suzy Grimm, Terri Ralston, Melinda Jurgenson, and Melody Kirstein of Spanish 2. To be in Spanish Honor Society you have to have above average grades, 3 semesters of Spanish, and be recommended by the teachers. Hey! We work, we don’t always play and have parties. DRIVER EDUCATION Hey! This isn’t a two-way street! It’s a one-way street and we’re going the r wrong way! Look out! Aahh! Eek! CRASH ! This is just another ordinary occurrence in the life of a Driver Education teacher. Mr. Sander and Mr. Nelson are the Driver Ed. teachers here at Lincoln. Anyone who is fifteen years old can take Driver Ed. Some look forward to it with fear (“Oh my gosh, I’m going to fail!) and others with joy (‘I’m finally getting my license!”). To pass Driver Ed. you must have thirty hours of classtime and many hard hours driving; you must also pass all your driving and test scores. According to Mr. Sander, students work harder to pass because they really want that driver’s license. Whose helping hand? “What's going on here?” Se Se a ¢ Someone’s not paying attention Mrs. Kaefring INDUSTRIAL ARTS... Mr. Gil Sander is the head of the Industrial Arts depart- ment. This department includes the following classes: Junior High Industrial Arts, Beginning and Advanced Woods, Metals and Welding, and Architectural and Mechanical Drawing. Class size varies for each of these but all are based on practical lab and lecture, and most of the projects are independent study so students have a chance to explore and develop their skills in Industrial Arts. HOME ECONOMICS... It’s amazing all of the things you can learn in one semester. By taking one or more of the following courses taught by Marcia Richmann: Beginning and Advanced Foods, Beginning and Ad- vanced Clothing, Tailoring, Advanced Tailoring, Family Living, Housing and Home Furnishings, eighth grade Home Ec, or seventh grade Home Ec taught by Arlene Kaefring, you could learn how to, make a tasty meal, sew up a storm, furnish a home, or learn about children Is that how you do it, Mr. Sanders? LANGUAGE ARTS... As everyone must know, it is required that everybody has to have four long years of English to graduate. If one chooses their classes to fit their needs, then they can be enjoyable (this is after 10th grade, of course). The English clas ses offered here at Lincoln are: Human Horizons (which seems to be the most popular), Vocational English (at a close second), College Prep, Advanced English, American Lit., Writing Lab, Creative Writing, and Drama. There are four teachers in the English Department: Mrs. Young, Mrs. Murdock, Miss Curley and Mr. Lessmeier. Mrs. Kaefring is the department head. All four of the teachers split up and teach grades 7-10; each grade is split into three levels, which are determined on how well you understand what is being studied at that particular time. After 10th grade you get to choose from the eight electives (for 7-10th grades, there is only 7th, 8th, 9th, and 10th grade English). The Publications class this year is the Advanced English. Students can only take this class for one year. The students are assigned ar- ticles to write each week and must fight to meet their weekly deadlines. The class also made a literary magazine called Panther Prints, which all students could contribute literary talent. At right, the Adv. English class. Ist row: C Mcatee, J. Hegarty, C. Boysen, and K. Jilovec. 2nd row: B. Dains, S. Brown, S. Donohoe, L. Frederick, S. Burkhead, E. Ropa, and B. Proc- tor. 3rd row: T. Klemme, C. Weber, J. Hutchin- son, A. Block, D. Kruse, and Mrs. Murdock al What’s the problem, Kathie? A perplexing problem, Miss Curley? Somebody ask a difficult question? MATHEMATICS... There are three math teachers at Lincoln: Mr. Joel Goodman who teaches General Math II, Algebra, Advanc- ed Math I and II, and College Prep Math; Mr. Gerald In- mann who teaches Basic Math II along with his science classes; and Mr. Lester Koering who teaches seventh and eighth grade math and Basic Math I. Two years of high school math are required of all students, but many students choose to further their knowledge in math. This year was the first year the school has owned their own computer, and Apple II which is used in developing arithmetic skills and gives students the opportunity to learn simple pro- gramming of computers. Other departments have access to the computer also. Mr. Goodman helps out one of his many math students. Mr. Koering and Angie Domer struggle with a difficult math problem. MEDIA... There has been a major change in the library this year. ‘‘What is this change?” you say. This change is in the librarian, or I should say librarians. Mrs. Oldorf has joined the staff this year as not only gym teacher but also librarian on Tuesdays and Thursdays and every other Friday; on Mondays and Wednesdays and every other Friday Mrs. Grimm comes in the mornings as librarian, while the afternoons the studyhalls are held in the library. The purpose of the Media is to provide the resources to find information for reports and papers and to provide the resources to find information; and last but not least, to provide reading enjoyment. Mrs. Oldorf and Mrs. Grimm are helped out by their student Media-aides who, while getting a credit, also learn to shelf and catalogue books, to check out and in materials from the library, and also to learn how to operate the equipment. There are eight Media-aides this year: two are doing it for a credit, and six who are just doing it to help out and to do something instead of studyhall. Mrs. Oldorf hard at work in the Media Center. PHYSICAL EDUCATION .. . PE provides a chance to join your peers in physical activities that gives you a chance to get away from the regular day-to-day classes and to burn off all the ex- cess energy accumulated from sitting at a desk all day. Junior high students learn what it’s like to be a part of a team and how to work with others. High school students learn activities that will have a carry-over value during adulthood. A new activity this year that everybody enjoyed, roller skating, even got the teachers involved, Those students who had too full a schedule to take gym during the day came in early in the morning to take early- bird PE. There are four gym teachers: Mr. Jackson (also athletic director), Mr. Richardson, Mrs. Plueger, and Mr Oldorf. Mrs. Plueger and Mrs. Oldorf alter- nate gym days. MUSIC. . . Music is for students to gain understanding of basic music materials and to gain a “‘spirit of pride’’ through participation in various contents and festivals. Lincoln’s two music teachers, Mrs. Andreeson (band) and Miss Peterson (chorus) have the awesome duties of teaching Concert Band, Marching Band, Pep Band, Lessons and Theory, Choir, Girls Glee, Swing Choir, and General Music Theory. Students are becoming more and more interested in music; in fact, the number of participants increased this year. After this year’s exciting contests and festivals, it will be interesting to see what next year will bring. 44 Caught you in the act! Play it again, Sam. RESOURCE ... Resource provides extra help for students in all of the departments. This year there are two full time teachers, whereas last year Mrs. Moffit in- structed part time at the elementary and part time at the high school. Now, Mrs. Moffit teaches seventh, eighth and ninth grade, while Mr. McGuire teaches tenth, eleventh and twelfth grade. There are about twenty-five students who receive extra help. The students are admitted to this program according to Individual test scores or referral by parent or staff. Mr. McGuire works with his students. Can you find what you want, Mrs. Moffit? BLAENCE . ... There are three science teachers: Miss Joyce Bohlken who teaches seventh, eighth and ninth grade general science; Mr. Ray Linder who teaches general and advanced biology; and Mr. Gerald Inman who teaches chemistry, physics, and ad- vanced science. The science classes are based on lecture and lab including experiments, dissections, and field trips. There are two required years of science after seventh and eighth grade general science. Would you like a cow’s eye? 9 Pari a “ ees ait Era = 2a Mr. Linder, would you help me with this problem? Mr. Inman, don't spill that on me! SOCIAL STUDIES There are three Social Studies teachers, Mr. Grantz, Mr. Richardson pictured here and Mr. Wendel pictured on the Building and Trades page. Social studies con- tinues throughout junior high and high school. During your freshman year, you study the many topics of American History and keep in mind current events of the world. This class is instructed by Mr. Wendel. During your sophomore, junior or senior year, you may take World History, an elective instructed by Mr. Grantz where you will investigate the motives for the chaos of the 19th and 20th centuries with emphasis on projects and current events. There are 2 — one semester elec- tives offered your junior and senior year: law and you and sociology instructed by Mr. Richardson. Govern- ment is the last required Social Studies course which is taken either your junior or senior year instructed by Mr. Richardson. What are you pointing at, Mr. Grantz? VOCATIONAL AGRICULTURE ... Vocational Agriculture prepares students for the field of agriculture. There are 45 students in the Ag classes including those from the shared program with Olin. Mr. Tom Quint is in charge of the Vo Ag department and teaches; Vo Ag I with an FFA and Livestock emphasis; Vo Ag II with an emphasis on crops and mechanics; Vo Ag III with a mechanics emphasis, Vo Ag IV with agricultural business study. Students have the opportunity to put into practice what they learn in the classroom, at home, and in the shop. wea Mr. Quint, what are you thinking about? OUR PRINCIPALS AND THEIR SECRETARIES... .

Many games were won or lost by a great margin of runs. East Central took a nosedive against the Fighting Panthers being beaten in five in- nings by a score of 26 to 6. The Olin Lions also fell to the power of the Panthers being beaten 25 to 5. Winning 6 games in 5 innings or less helped the Panthers to be rank- ed 12th in the state with a runs scored per game average of 9.68. This was only one example of the many honors the Panthers received. Other standouts in the win col. umn for the Panthers were a 3.2 win over West Branch and a 17-13 victory over the Midland Eagles on home turf. But just as there are many high points for a team, there had to be some disappointments. The Pan. thers fought a losing battle against the Monticello Panthers in the first round of the Lincoln Invitational, They lost that late night game by a score of 15-6 which was a disap. pointment to the Panthers since they were unable to continue in tournament play.

A SEASON OF HONORS COACH’S COMMENTS ‘While our final statistics were quite im- pressive in many respects, our overall record was not as good as we had hoped. Though the hitting remained fairly strong throughout the season, our defense and pitching weren’t as consistent as we had an- ticipated. With only three seniors having graduated, and many two and three year starters returning, we look forward to good things in ’82.’’ — Coach Stamp Chosen by teammates as Most Valuable Player was Chris Brown. Other honors in- cluded Most Improved Upperclassman, Sara Kuehnle; Most Improved Underclassman, Stacey McAtee and Janette Jurgensen; Honorary Co-Captains, Chris Brown and Sara Kuehnle; and the Huckledebuck Kris Weber was 64th in state with an individual batting Award also went to Chris Brown. average of .417. a Suzy was 15th in the state with a 1.55 runs scored game average.

Sponsored by: HAWKEY TRANSPORT CO., Stanwood AN EXCITING SUMMER The Panthers ended their season with a disappointing 10-11 record. They finished 5th in the conference with a 7-7 record. With only four previous starters returning, the team lacked experience in many positions. Highlights in the season were the East Central and Solon games. The East Central game was won by Deron Jurgenson. Deron hit a 3 run homer with two outs left in the bottom of the 7th inning to win the game 7-6. The Solon game was won by Craig Kleppe who hit a two run homer in the bottom of the 8th inning. The win over Solon advanced Lincoln into the second round of the sectionals. But Lincoln was then defeated in the second game by Springville by a score of 10-0.

A BLUE RIBBON SEASON . “All set?” ““You bet!” “‘What do ya say?” “OK!!” TEAM HONORS ALL-CONFERENCE First Team Suzy Grimm Kathy Gutwiler Second Ream Angie Block Vonda Meyer Honorable Mention Kris Weber The “Blue Ribbon Babes,” as the Lincoln volleyball girls came to be known during sectional play, had another fine season. With five of the six returning starters from the 1980 squad, the girls wanted to achieve a lot, and achieve they did! Not only did the girls take the conference with a perfect 21-0 game record, but they also were able to ad. vance into regional volleyball action because of a second place finish in the sectional tournament. Probably the most exciting match of the season came during sectional semi-finals. Losing the first two games to the Tipton Tigers, it seemed that Lincoln wouldn't have a regional qualifier. But the girls battled back tough to take the ‘ast three games. The girls then lost to the eventual state champs, Clinton Mater Dei. Commenting on the varsity season Coach Plueger had these comments: “The two things that pleased me most during the season were winning the conference again and the ‘never give up’ attitude these girls possessed through the entire season. We improved statistically over last year’s team and with 5 of the top 7 players returning next year, Lincoln can expect to see the winning tradi- tion to continue in the 1982 season.” On the JV level, Mrs. Plueger had this to say: “A great deal of valuable game experience was gained by these girls and they made some tremendous improve- ment over the season; I’m sure that many of the girls will come on and contribute a lot to the volleyball program at Lincoln in future years.” Row 1: Suzy Grimm, Jane Kuehnle, Lisa Kurth, Melody Kirstein; Row 2; Sheryl Wendel, Tracy Miller, Jeanine Wagner, Pam Goldsmith, Cheryl Hasselbusch, Kriss Lund, Lori Flynn, Karen Voss, Kathy Aberle; Row 3: Coach Plueger, Jodi Brendes, Melinda Jurgensen, Kathy Gutwiler, Vonda Meyer, Kris Weber, Sally Weber, Sherri Meyer.

Sponsored by: CASEY’S GENERAL STORE, Mechanicsville Cross country is noted as being a very challenging and physically demanding sport. Since it is the newest sport added to OFF AND Lincoln’s sports agenda, many people are quite ignorant to the events involved. The courses are usually plotted on a golf course; but when one RI INNING is not available, substitutions are made. Each is different from the one before. Two grueling miles are mapped out over an area which may contain pavement, gravel, grass, hills, streams or A So ny = creeks, regular running tracks, and occasionally things like horse Fase trails and wood chip paths. All are designed to be as challenging as possible. - Scoring is very unusual if you are not familiar with it. Each in- + ‘S dividual receives the score of the place at which he or she ‘ finishes. (Example: third place receives three points.) Then, the , total of the four runners are added to get the team score. The team with the lowest amount of points wins the first place posi- tion; a perfect team score is ten points. e A minimum of four individuals is required for the completion of 4, a team. If there are less than four team points can not be given but individual points can be. } Spectators were few this year because of the far traveling - ‘- : : , distance, the newness of the sport, and lack of interest, but cross country is really a very exciting and interesting sport.

Not Pictured: Brad Finished finally The cross country teams started off the season with quite an ex- perience in mid-September. Nine runners encountered their first cross country meet on a very difficult and challenging course. Results were not spectacular because of extremely tough competi- tion but with each meet, times and places improved considerably. Throughout the course of the season, some runners quit and others joined. By the end of the season four boys and four girls still remained; the minimum number of persons required for a team. At the Oxford Junction Invitational on October 2, the girls finished first with a perfect score of ten. The boys, however, placed sixth. They trudged onward through the rest of the meets of difficult competition and nearly froze at some. Temperatures at Districts on October 22 hovered around the freezing mark while snowflakes sprinkled on the golf course soon after the boys had started running. The final placing for the boys was 19 out of the 24 attending teams. Although they didn’t qualify for state, they cheered on the girls as they finished out their grueling race. The girl’s final placing: Lincoln 3rd. They had just become state qualifiers. On October 31, the four girls traveled to Ames to participate in what was soon to be an experience of a lifetime; they were state qualifiers in their first year of the sport. En- thusiasm (and most likely slight fear) carried our ambitious runners to a ninth place finish out of 16 teams. Not bad for the first time out. Coach Richardson said he was pleased with the performance of all the runners throughout their first season of cross country. Striving to keep the place. LET WRESTLING GRAB YOU Push it! HARDER!

Even though the squad finished with a 2-7 record, the season was encouraging because of the improvement of Lincoln’s younger players. With the large number of younger players involved, personal WE THEY improvement was a prime objective for Lincoln. The Durant 0 14 Panthers often times started as many as five Midland 7 47 sophomores on the varsity level of play.

The season would probably be remembered best as one with a number of close games, half court shots, and the amount of spirit among the players. One team record was broken and that was the best free throw percentage, and it was reset at 65%. Two individual school records were broken during the season; Lisa Kurth set a new free throw percentage with 76% and Suzy Grimm set a new percentage of field goals for a season with 51%. Next year’s team should be just as successful because this year’s J.V. team had an 8-2 season record. oJ =. p e ia, ce Peay A Re _ 0. Maes i ( « oe we First Row: S. Hasselbusch, S. Wendel, M.

The team lacked height, but hustle and deter- mination were key factors in their victories. Two big victories during the season were the Guttenburg and East Central games. Lincoln upset the Guttenburg Pirates by a score of 65-64. This game definite- ly turned the pace around for the team knowing that they could play great basketball when they wanted to. Having been beaten by East Central in their first meeting by a score of 59-40, the team was a little hesitant in the first half. But a second half rally gave another upset victory to the Panthers witha score of 67-46. The biggest victory the Panthers had was the first round sectional game against Solon. The team beat Solon on their home court by a score of 66-62. T his victory ad- vanced them to Lisbon where they played West Branch. They were defeated by a score of 72-45.

Like all track seasons, meets were held in freezing cold weather, boiling hot, and pouring rain. There were times when you could have easily frozen to death, died of sun stroke or spent days wringing out wet clothes. The new all weather sweats helped a lot. Despite the horrible temps, these girls managed to run away with such meet titles as the Jensen Relays, Mid-East, and numerous triangulars with little problem. The District Meet pulled in 37 teams, thus creating state qualification difficult. Kathy Boysen was the single qualifier representing the Lincoln Girls Track Squad this season. She broke the school record in the 800 meter run twice and set her own at the State Meet. I’m on my way. A typical Ropa long jump — good!

What excellent form!! The high school guys really showed enthusiasm this year as they captured first in a few larger meets. At the Northeast Rebel Relays, Lincoln took the top position and at the annual Buttery Relays in Mt. Vernon, the 30-member squad shared with Alburnett the first place honors. On a semi-cloudy Saturday afternoon, Tri-County edged out the Lincoln runners at the District Meet with 59 points. Lincoln ranked at the runner-up position with 50. Beside wrapping up second place, ten participants qualified for the State Meet in six events. The Friday and Saturday spent in Des Moines were very eventful. Scott Merfeld placed ninth in the shot and discus, Bob Boysen finished up ninth in the 2-mile run and the three qualifying relay teams almost ranked among the best 18 in the state. Nice plaque.

Under the second year Coach Koering, the girls continued to work on fundamentals. Many of the girls did well in batting, some hitting above the .400 mark. The overall records weren’t too impressive as the seventh grad ers were defeated in all five of their contests and the eighth graders managed to win only one game. This single vic- tory came against the Lisbon Lions. The team won that battle by an impressive score of 21 to 16. “Although our record reflects a poor win-loss result and truthfully there were times in practice where the attitudes and effort was weak in midseason, the overall improvement in most aspects of the game came along very well. Both teams started hitting with more authority and found improved pitching accuracy and one or two innings a game of good defense. With a wide variety of experience in many different defen- sive positions and a start of executing the fundamentals of the game, I hope the girls have started a worthwhile activity.” — Coach Koering das (AS) Gs RECORDS 8th grade: won 1 lost 5 7th grade: won 0 lost 5 Row 1: Mgr.

The students were all dressed up for the specified day that the cheerleaders assigned. When Friday rolled around, school let out at 1:30 to make those last minute changes on the floats. Everyone was in good spirits for the night game against Preston. The parade started at 3:00 followed by more lively arousement from the cheerleaders. There were a few contests then the King and Queen crowning.

After everyone was mellowed from their meal (which was Swiss steak, breaded fish, salad bar, baked potatoes, mixed vegetables, rolls, iced tea, milk, ice cream, and cake) they listened to the junior prophecies read by Gary Henkel and John Skow and the senior wills read by Tom Crock and Terry Schnipkoweit. The seniors relived their memories when Greg Wagner gave his acceptance speech after being welcomed by Brian Jackson, junior class president. Following the ban- quet was the dance where the disc jockey from Q103 played lots of good music. The girls all enjoyed the danc- ing while the guys enjoyed the games in the bar. The castle helped create the mood of prom. Does it taste okay? What's up, Jill? Below: Couples enjoy a slow dance. Look at all the food! “OKLAHOMA!” — THE FALL MUSICAL This is so much fun.

BAND Under the direction of Mrs. Andreesen and of majorette, Melinda Jurgensen, 47 instrumentalists, 10 colorguard, 4 riflegirls, and 4 ponpom girls, constructed many awesome for mations on the football field during halftime at home games Twelve 8th graders filled in empty spaces for additional sound and movability. Other performances of the glidesteppers were stepping off pregame of home football games, the homecom- ing parade, and the Memorial Day parade. Some of the musical selections consisted of “‘Another One Bites the Dust,” “I Love a Rainy Night,”’ ‘Wm. Tell Overature,” and “‘Climb Every Mountain.” Many early morning rehearsals were scheduled to practice the music and format ions. Fingers, trumpet valves, and trom- bone slides had to be thawed out because of cold weather conditions. The jazz band competed in the Augustana Jazz Festival. Tom Crock was a recipient of an outstanding soloist award. Good job, Tom! Another jazz festival they competed in was the Southeast Jazz Festival at Victor. Bringing home a third place trophy proved that all the hard work paid off, and Matt Grimm was one of the outstanding musicians of the festival. Playing for the Stanwood Lion’s and Laetition’s Clubs was good performing experience for the jazz band. mer) se - i . 3 Keeping a straight line Early morning practice | ak ) i 1 a A great sax solo!

MATT — FIRST EVER TO ALL STATE SPEECH HAS GOOD YEAR Larry: Is that so?! Matt: Yes, that’s so!! Individual speech participants: Dale Kruse, Matt Grimm, Chris Mac- Donald, Beth Proctor, Suzy Grimm, Kathy Boysen, Carla Boysen, Andy Matheny and Mrs. Murdock. You tell’em, Suz!! Practice, practice, practice. Always more practice. Large group speech had a fairly successful year rating-wise. The one act, along with a duet by Dale Kruse and Beth Proctor, advanced to the state competition after receiving I's at districts. However, the choral reading and a duet perform- ed by Chris MacDonald and Carla Boysen got II ratings, making them ineligible for further competition. At state the one act was judged by three peo- ple, receiving three II's, making a composite rating of Il. The duet performed by the two seniors was awarded three I’s after giving an excellent performance. Only eight students joined individual speech this year. Twelve entries were submitted to contest; six of those received II’s, the remainder got I’s. Dale Kruse, Chris Mac- Donald, Beth Proctor and Andy Matheny were braver than the rest and tackled two pieces each. Dale, Matt, Suzy and Chris all advanced onward to State on March 20. Beth took both her selections to the state competition. On March 20, three of the six selections were given com- posite ratings of II. Suzy and Chris were honored with I's along with Matt, who was named an “outstanding performer” and performed at All State on April 5. This is the fi rst year that Lincoln has ever had an individual speech contestant advance all the way to All State competition. Matt received a medal for his performance in the category of dramatic acting. “GRAMMY” WINNERS BAND EVENTS Overall, the band contestants did very —_T. Crock (Euphonium) Marimba Trio ‘ , = T.

On April 5, 1982, at 6:00 a.m., two bus loads of fine musicians were on their way to Miles, lowa for Small Group Contest. On the way, the contestants gobbled donuts that were furnished by Mr. and Mrs. Schnipkoweit. The rating scale was changed which made it very dif- ficult to receive a one rating this year. It was based upon a point system as follows: Division I rating (40-36 pts.), superior performance; Division II (35-31 pts.), good per- formance; Division III (30-26 pts.), average perfor- mance; Division IV (25-21 pts.), below average perfor- mance; Division V (20 pts. and below), no credit given. Lincoln’s vocal participants did an exceedingly good job by bringing home 14 I’s, 14 Il’s, and 7 Ill’s.

Scholarship, Leadership, Service, and Character, are the four re- quirements for becoming a member of the National Honor Society. Scholarship is maintaining a 3.0 grade point average or better. Guiding others, having the courage to say “‘no”’ or “yes” decisively at a crucial mo- ment is Leadership. Service is what an individual does to aid the school and community in many different ways. The constant striving to uphold high morals and honesty in daily contact with others is Character. You have to be selected by other members of the Society after meeting all of the above requirements. Just being a member may affect the rest of your life.

A DIFFERENT KIND OF TRIP FOR A DIFFERENT KIND OF CLASS We're all ready to go. Let’s have fun. Say cheese. Who’s the smart one who tipped the boat? The class of ’82 sure was different. Picture this: only 23 graduates attended the outing at Lake MacBride, four spon- sors, the bus arrived late in McVille, enough chicken for 44 people, an over abundance of pop, rain in the forecast and a bill of 133 dollars for boat rental by the end of the day. Also to keep them entertained was Orville the Owl, the boat rental owners’ pet. Mr. Lessmeier and Mr. Miller took an unexpected swim in the early afternoon because the driver of their boat miscalculated the speed and toppled them right over. On one occasion, a motor boat “‘disappeared”’ for a couple of hours with two of the class members. When found, they informed the sponsors that they were “‘fishing”! Other than all that though, this trip was just like any other boring class trip — almost. Taking it easy — as usual. Finger-lickin’ good! Fly that frisbee!! What's the matter, Lessmeier? Get a little web? Some went boating and some went swimming. Camera shy? Since when?
