Golf Coach Karl Kalman with members of the Golf team Tennis The colorful tennis team placed fifth in the city pub- lic high standings in 1957. The season found Joe Celis coming in at the finish as runner up to the indivi- dual city champion. Coach Brod considers him to be the outstanding high schocil player in the city and hopes that he will win the title in '58. With a score of ten matches won out of four- tecn played, the netmen didn't finish at all badly. It was an important year for our golf team. Our boys, coached by Karl Kalman, placed second in the league. Mr. Minto, an exchange teacher from St. Andrews, Scotland, presented the St. Andrews Trophy to our best golfer in the champion- ship meet. The top three men were Bob Thomas, Frank Hed- ner, and Bruce Drysdale. Seniors on the team were Steve Clyman and Henry Schmidt. Coach Irv. Brod with members of the Tennis team 48

Girl's Athletic Association Seniors were Billie Carrol and Marianne Duzenski Shuffle one, shuffle two, step together, step kick! After January ,58 is history, Barbara, Marianne, llarge, Ina, Marilyn, and Franny will miss that familiar direction along with many others. They have not only been taught new dance steps but have an opportunity to work out their own ideas. These creative ideas have been seen in assembly programs, the Jamboree and many other special events. Leaders Club fx , 1 ,if ...I-1:f,..'iLQ?25?i U 'W 'Q sf srlci . tt ' if .

These girls have done a marvelous job of giving awards to Lincoln's female athletes. The awards are based on points for being on the varsity teams. After the student has received her varsity letter, she is presented with a felt L,,' the following term a bracelet, and the highest award is a charm worn as a locket. Aside from pre- senting these awards, the girls also sponsor an ele- mentary school track meet and the Girls' Intramural Gym Meet. Our lovely display case at the rear of the auditorium has been another creation due, in part, to the ingenuity of the G.A.A. The girls were chosen in 9A, two from each grade. They remained in the club until graduation keeping a total of 16 girls every term. The services of this organization have been of great value not only to the gym department but to the whole school. Dancing First Row: F. Mollen, I. Bugen, M. Duzenski. Second Row: Miss Marco, B. Johnson, M. Edgerton, M. Iona, Mrs. Emery The Leaders' Club has long provided a way for non- athletes to raise their gym marks by offering an after- school activity in which these girls are given special assistance in improving their apparatus work and gymnastic skill. This club has also aided quite a few of our better female gymnasts in preparing for the intra- mural gym meet which is held once a year. Members of Leaders', will always remember the dark, quiet hall- ways of Lincoln about 4:15 on Friday afternoon.
