Students come and students go, but teachers remain to channel the flow. We've tried to learn a lot in high school and our teachers have always done their best to help us. The seniors of 83 would like to feature some of the people who make our four years at LHS some of the best. sf- . if gif i f . .Qs jg ' .f . , U Q .-s:. kk .

Tree Moments In Mr. Newell is a teacher who gets to know students, and vice versa. One student commented, He's an en- tertaining teacher. His classes exacting, but refreshing. Teaching government, American history, and advanced P.E. at the High School and P.E. at the Junior High, he also puts in coaching duties at Beverly. Anyone who has been through his classes knows they are fun as well as work. Students can participate in football polls, try to guess answers for A's he gives away, or talk about any number of things during class. His comment on Kansas Gas Prices is, I can't affort them. If I come to school in insulated coveralls, you'll know what happened. About his grading scale, he says, You'd swear the curve breaks on your name. Moreover, he considers it embarassing not to know the answer to a question and he says that if he wasn't teaching, he'd be an oil worker in Tulsa. They've got the money. Mr. Newell feels that students in his class get out of it exactly what they put into it. ln most cases, that's a lot. Judd Electric 8. Plumbing uw.-dw

Remembrance Mr. Roberts, a catalyst at Lincoln High School, serves as Chemistry, Biology, Physics teacher and photography director, besides reading numerous articles on science and pursuing projects such as coin collecting and a filmstrip on the wildflowers of Kansas. During a break between classes, he gave his views on his courses and specific interests. Much of Chemistry and Physics is interrelated, as are all sciences. Recent gains in medicine can be traced to Biology and Physics. Advances in Nuclear energy correspond to Chemistry. A few years back, I taught a class of general sciences with elements of Chemistry, Physics, Biology, and earth sciences all thrown together to show this relationf' Mr. Roberts feels that, Questions students pose are not difficult, but l am always looking for better explana- tions for those questions. He believes, lf you can apply logic to your thinking, you can do anything. Mr. Robert Thompson, carrying out duties as Activities Director when not in the classroom, has profited students for many years. His business courses, consistently regarded as beneficial for col- lege preparation, also teach practical life skills. The benefits of accounting, for instance, are numerous. It is invaluable for figuring income tax and budgeting. Business law is an introduction to the work world that could prove valuable in the future. Mr. Thompson's philosophy is, I'm always there to help, but students have to ask for it. This attitude has taught Lincoln High School students to speak up when something isn't understood, a valuable asset in the years ahead. Mr. Thompson is someone students count on and the students of 1983 won't forget that. .l Mr. Ray Everhart serves as our guiding light here at Lincoln High. He has the responsibility of seeing that students are aware of their needs for the future, and he strives to fullfil those needs. He is second only to parents in influencing our choices for the future, and he takes his job very seriously. Mr. Everhart feels his work consists of being there to listen, suggest and direct. He wants to make the students like themselves so they will try harder to succeed. It is a difficult job, but Mr. Everhart handles it effectively. Making students feel like their problems are top priority is a great feeling to have. Mr. Everhart once said that he derives satisfac- tion from seeing that he has helped someone. He should get a lot of satisfaction from the class of '83 Anschultz Dairy Walker Products Inc. 'A ,n xxx!
