The hand rails by the stairs are thinly coated with dust. Numerous hand imprints show evidence that the building has not been vacated. The various rooms are dirty and disorganized. No, this is not the introduction to a mys- tery story. Rather it is a description of the conditions at Lincoln High while construc- tion of the school was taking place during the year. The planning for the construction began in 1971. In 1974, work began on the exterior windows and doors and on the present library, which was completed in January 1976. In this same year of completion, the Links Mall was started and finished three years later. In the summer of 1979, construction of an eight lane track began and is still going on until next summer, when it is expected to be completed. There is also to be a stadium on the west side of the field, which will seat around 2,000 people, and the football field will be equipped with an underground sprinkler system. All of the classrooms, starting with first floor, will be reconstructed. They will each receive a new coat of paint, which is chosen by the teacher occupying the room. They will install new blackboards, cabinets, floors, ceilings, doors, and for those classes which require them, new water facilities will be provided. Lockers will also be painted to replace the some what dull gray color. There was a faculty committee organ- ized to plan much of the construction. The committee members were: Merrill Peter- son, June Klein. Rose Marie KastJ and Kay Sayre. Some students were also selected to voice their ideas concerning plans for construction. Although there was some inconven- ience to students and teachers, having to move from room to room as construction progressed, all seemed to adjust very well. Distractions from learning were not of a major proportion. Classrooms left in disarray illustrate the conditions at Lincoln High during construction. Job well done-2 High Mr. Sanford Nelson, principal, was very grateful to the Board of Education for allowing the construction to take place. He stated that often times it is so easy to ignore the older schools, when we should try to make all schools look equally well. He said it is necessary for all schools to have the same opportunity for a good learning environment. The cost to replace the building at Lin- coln High School would be $18 million. This would be a much greater expense than will be required to remodel the pres- ent structure, which is basically a well con- structed, sturdy building. The construc- tion is expected to be completed in the fall of 1981. Right Many hours of hard work were spent during the school year with hope of completing the new Oval in 1981. Yellow, greenand white were the primary colorschosen foe the hallways of the school. To break up the monotony of solid green, the name of the subject assigned toa particular section of the school will be designed on the wall. Job well done3 Success Success to each person takes on a dif- ferent and special meaning. The degree to which someone succeeds cannot possi- bly be measured. Success lies within each individual. Success in high school could mean making the all school play or it could be as simple as making it to your first period class on time. Each day we experience some type of achievement, no matter how trivial. We all set certain goals for ourselves during our life. Whether or not we achieve these goals, depends on the amount of effort we put forth. Success does not come free, we must have the desire and determination in order to achieve. Even if we do not accomplish our intended goal, the final product is not necessarily failure. Set backs, which occur on the way to success, should be taken at face value and used as encouragement to pull forward. A quote by Booker T. Washington may explain this idea. He said, I have learned that success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has overcome while trying to succeed. Probably the ultimate achievement high school students look forward to. is the diploma each receives on graduation night. In the eyes of society, this is the first step on the ladder leading to success. Col- lege follows and finally a stable job with a substantial amount of income. Society often relates success with the ability to acquire a large amount of material Happiness is peihaps Ihe most satisfying type of success one can obtain. possessions. A graduate of Lincoln High. Ted Gun- derson. FBI special agent in Los Angeles, feels we must always strive for perfection. He said. Success takes dedication, edu- cation and most importantly a good solid background. He said we should never pass up an opportunity to learn. State Senator Shirley Marsh, another LHS graduate, feels success depends upon the ”3 E's. These are education, enthusiasm and endurance. She said, Without endurance we often stop short of our goal. No matter what goals we set in life or how many of them we achieve, we must always have confidence. The faith we have in ourselves could be the clinching factor in our destiny to success. Job well done5 A new 280ZX, that exquisite silk dress, or a complex Hi-Fi stereo system—these are all items many high school students dream of owning. However, what we want and things we can afford are two entirely different matters. During the past few years, there has been a steady increase in the number of high school students holding jobs. According to a poll taken by the LINKS staff this year, more than 80 percent of the students surveyed had a job. Most students worked in fast food restaurants, either as a waitress, waiter, busboy, or cook. The large percentage of working students seems to indicate their need for money. Society places a great emphasis on materialistic values. Generally, our desire to outdo our neighbors requires more spending money. Therefore, the need for high school students to work is much greater. The most common item that students spend their money on is food. This seems to correspond to the fact that the majority of students work in restaurants. Two other popular spending choices are clothing and entertainment It does seem to be true that people are much more clothes conscious than ever before. Students are turning more to nice dress pants and nice shirts, rather than old worn out jeans and t-shirts. And of course, students, as well as everyone, are spending more money on gasoline and their cars. Peer pressure influences many young people to spend their money. The old saying monkey see, monkey do enters into this concept. Often times, students must buy a product simply because their friends or everyone else has it. Advertisers also seem to have a way of encou- raging students to buy unnecessary items. The student is often led to believe that a certain product will make him or her more popular or better liked by others. There also has been a large number of students opening checking and savings accounts. Many are saving up for college or a new car. Of the students surveyed, the majority said they saved between 10-20 percent of their earning wages. The response from students was about evenly divided when asked if they felt they must give up some luxuries because of today's inflation. Some of these luxury items included: clothes, shoes, cars, candy and records. Taking into consideration all of the pressures relating to materialistic values, it is inevitable that the student must turn to the job market. However, it is still up to the individ- ual to decide what is important when selecting which products to buy. Money crunch Job well done-6 Working at a fast food restaurant, such as McDonalds, is one of the jobs frequently held by high school students. The need to open checking and savings accounts increases as with the number of students holding jobs and earnings larger amounts of money increases. Job well done-7 A counselor's advice often eased the frustrations students experienced when making the decision to Possibly one of the most pleasant fringe benefits of taking seven classes rsan early morning donut in the lunchroom Lucky number 7 This year Lincoln High made available to students the opportunity to take seven classes, instead of six. as offered in the past years. The idea was formulated from suggestions made by parents, teachers, counselors and even students. The North Central Accreditation Team, an organization which evaluated Lincoln High, concluded that it might be benefi- cial to students if the school offered an additional class period. Some of the multiple courses offered first period this year were Advanced American Literature, Geometry, Biol- ogy, Psychology, and General Engligh. There were also a few select courses offered. These were Madrigal Singers. Leadership Development and German 7-8. Student's first response to a suggestion such as this was probably negative. After all. who wants to be in school longer than abso- lutely necessary? However, something must have spurred students to take advantage of the offer, because of the 361 first period spots available. 351 students registered for seven classes. Why and who was it that encouraged students to take on one more class? Most students said they made the decision themselves. Some students said they also received advice from their counselors. The most common reason among students for taking seven classes was to acquire all of the credits needed to graduate. There were also conflicts in schedules and students were forced to take seven classes. Many students believed the extra courses will help them when they enter college and start pursuing careers. The extra load of one more class each day did not seem to bother students. Most said they were not bogged-down by additional homework. Those students who said there was a lot of extra work, felt they could handle it with no problems. Mrs. Kathy Raymer, assistant principal for instruction, felt the idea of offering an extra class each day was an excellent one. She feels Lincoln High has many fine courses to offer and students should take advantage of them while they have the chance. She said it gives the student a chance to take some fun classes along with the academic courses. She added, I am really excited about it It helps us better meet student needs and that's what we are here for. Job well done-9 Hit ’em hard This year, one of the most respected, dedicated and hard working teachers will be retiring. As a graduate of Lincoln High in 1936, Mr. William Pfeiff has been asso- ciated in some way or another with our school for many years. Mr. Pfeiff started teaching at Lincoln High in January, 1946 and began coaching football that next fall. He had previously taught in Norfolk for five years, before coming to Lincoln High. Mr. Pfeiff said he had no regrets in choos- ing the best school in Lincoln to teach. As he puts it, Once a Link, always a Link.” After twelve years of teaching, he acquired an administrative position under Mr. William Bogar, then LHS principal, and held the position through 1978. Last year, he once more resumed his place in the classroom, teaching World Studies. He said the reason he went back to teaching was because he was tired of working at. what he called, the negative end of things. He said he did not have positive contact with the staff and students and this bothered him. Mr. Pfeiff likes the idea of working directly with stu- dents and he enjoys seeing them achieve. He stated, “I have high expectations of people and I want them to have high expectations of themselves.” It concerns him when he sees students that do not seem to want to do anything. He likes to see students become involved in whatever activities they enjoy. He does feel that there are enough students who want to succeed and who will get the job done. During his high school years, Mr. Pfeiff was involved in various activities. Perhaps this is the reason he likes to see students involved. Mr. Pfeiff made up his mind to become a teacher when he was in junior high school. He said both he and life-time friend Mr. Harold Scott, LHS social studies teacher, decided to go into the teaching profession at this time. I may not have much money in the bank,” he said, but you can't measure the experiences I have had in dollars and cents. Mr. Pfeiff said one change he noticed about the administrative system over the years was that it had become a lot more complex. He was not quite sure whether this was a better quality or if this made the situation worse. He did feel though that things were not quite as personal as they used to be. He felt there was a loss of contact between the students and staff members. However, it did make him proud to see people who he had watched grow up. come back to Lincoln High and be a part of the administrative team. Two examples he gave were Mr. Jim Sommers, athletic director, and Mr. Sanford Nelson, principal. He adds, It just makes you feel really good. Through the years, Mr. Pfeiff has seen no major changes in the attitudes of students. He feels their sense of values have more or less stayed the same. However, he does feel young people ask the question Why? more often. He said, If they know why, they will generally accept the reason. Why retire? Mr. Pfeiff said he believes students deserve enthusiastic, fired up leadership and he was not so sure he could offer that anymore. He said he has plans to catch up with some routine jobs around the house. He would also like to travel some. He said he has his old dog Coach, who still needs him. He added, “I might even look forward to that first Sunday night when I do not have to come in the next Monday. Hit 'em Hard.” as stated by Mr. Pfeiff. signifies his concept of getting the job done each day. Job well done-10 Job well done-11 Viewing various talents in the LHS auditorium helps lighten the monotonous schedule of some school days. The State Fair brightens the livelihood of Student Life. Time well spent Student Life generally refers to the time spent in the classroom. However, a student's activities expand beyond the hours he or she spends in school. This year Lincoln High offered a variety of activities for students to turn to in their spore time. Some students selected to go home, while others chose to stay at school and play football or help construct the set for the all school play. Weekends played a big port in Student Life. What are you doing this weekend, was a question almost all stu- dents heard or asked. The answers varied. A few students said, I'm gonna go to a great party. Others drowsily answered, I think I'll stay home and sleep, and many students replied, I have to work this weekend.' The majority of students had jobs, both full and port time. Fast food restaraunts. movie theatres, car washes, clothes stores, swimming p ools and skating rinks were just a few of the various businesses where LHS students earned their spore change. That money went for such necessary items as eraseable p ens, gasoline, clothes, dates and numerous other articles that parents don’t always hand out. Many students worked without poy. The spxrit organi- zations consisting of cheerleaders, pep club, flag corp , and drill team pot in long hours of hard work perfecting cheers, making locker signs, and choreographing rou- tines. This hard work was shown at the games and pep rallies. Sometimes the hard effort was rewarded with a team victory. Personal satisfaction can be the payment for students involved in journalism. The Advocate, The Links and Image were vehicles LHS students used to express them- selves in writing. Much time was spent, before and after school, interviewing p eople, writing stories and pasting up layouts. Sophomore, Junior, and Senior Steering Commit- tees allowed students to take part in their student govern- ment Each class elected officers and set goals for the year. The junior class was responsible for the p rom and the senior class chose their class gift These three groups provided a service for the school. The hardest job of all when you are a student, has the highest pay. Studying takes time and concentration. It also takes the willingness to learn. No one, including parents and teachers, can force a student to learn. However, if one selects to take the time and study for a test, the reward in the long run will make the time sp ent, all worth while. Student Life involves a variety of p eople and a variety of activities. Lincoln High offers an extensive curriculum of activities for students to become involved in. The city of Lincoln also op ens many experiences for students. Students are tomorrow's future; so open your eyes and seek, view and participate. Student Life-13 Clarence Larry and Darlene Berks boogie at Uncolnfest Come to know yourself Student Life deals with everyday living. It's composed of some success and some failure. It's the good times and the bad. It consists of things you planned and things that just happened. Goals for tomorrow or memories of yesterday all round up the scene of Student Life. Remember cruising O Street? Going to the Friday Night Horror picture? Eating at Mac's? Decorating the school that you rivaled with the most and getting deco- rated back? Yes, all a part of our school life. Cheers of victory or cries of defeat ring out with the events of Student Life. School spirit built or tom down; Life doesn't end with our failures and it doesn't stop the first time we succeed. Everyday adds new corners to our lives. We will get around a few of these corners and others we will have to detour—but all add to our lives. A student is someone trying to learn. Life is what he or she learns from. Every star, person or object adds something to our view of life. Student Life is just living. Views are sometimes bitter in life, blackened by bad experiences. There are also times we look with joy upon the things in life we experience. Many find life hard to cope with but few people ever fail to sur- vive. In many ways life is a game we play each day. Battling on a see-saw that takes our emotions up and down. Everyone must reach out to his or her world. In doing this we learn and come to know life. We grow with each day building our knowledge of the world. Learning to love or maybe to hate widens our view of what life is all about. We must challenge life. We must say yes and open ourselves up for experience. In the end of this battle we learn who we really are and what life has molded us to be. Life is an overall scale that we build weight upon with each day. If we feel we have succeeded our scale weighs heavy; if we have failed the scale is light and sway- ing, waiting for something in life to steady its motion and build its empty shell. Each man, woman, child or thing has its place in life. At times they must be an individual and other times they must work together. Every person is a piece to the puzzle called life. When we lose a piece we must find another to fill in the empty space or just keep building around it. A puzzle isn't considered complete without all the pieces. People are the pieces to life's puz- zle. Let's find our place and attach our- selves and help build the puzzle of life. Links show school spirit by decorating their cars.

Student Life 15 Business Manager Randy Kobler dials deep into conversation with a prospective advertiser Story in itself This group tells the story of itself. Its dignification comes in the bold black print of the Links' newspaper. The 1979-80 Advocate staff consisted of about twenty stu- dents. The majority of them were juniors. Their purpose was to provide an effective means of communication between the school and the community. Lee Johnson, Advocate sponsor, says, Our first goal was to serve the interest of the school.'' Among other goals were reducing the operation's deficit and becoming a self-supporting newspaper.Hope- fully, these changes insured the future of the newspaper in case of an overall budget cut The staff published 12 issues, approximately one every three weeks. This year they also wrote their news from a feature angle. The staff hopes to gain more respect and recognition for their paper as each year goes by. To succeed in their goals, the staff had to spend hard working hours, much concentration, and combine individual and group efforts. 1979-80 Advocate Editor Assistant Editor Sports Editor Joel Thornton Layout Editor Business Managers Randy Kobler Writers Julie Sharp Sandy Speers Sue Trampe Lori Trejo Bill Buntain John (Jllman Kelli Walin Randy Wymore Photographers Gary Jorgens Dale Nichols Steve Pieper Artist Mitch McKeown Advisors Ms. Teri Bigelow Principal Mr. Sanford Nelson Student Life-16 Hall passes are frequently used by Lee Johnson and Advocate reporters Sue Trampe and Liz Burden.

Underclassmen Editor; Silvia Paegilitis, Senior Editor; Scott Barron. Sara Gies and Dave Heckman, Sports Editors and Dale Nichols, Dave Bourke and Steve Pieper, Photographers. Lee Johnson was the advisor and Teri Bigelow was the assistant advisor. Over the summer Nancy Wolff and Bill Buntain attended a week-long clinic in Hastings. NE, sponsored by the Nebraska High School Press Association. They learned many new techniques in yearbook design and layout, as well as writing, theme, and photography. They brought back these new ideas to the staff and it was decided to implement some of the new techniques in the 1980 Links. The toughest part of the year was keeping a unified and organized staff. Missing copy deadlines and plant deadlines were a couple of the problems that arose but they were quickly worked out and a successful book was issued in May 1980. About the 1980 Links Staff, Lee Johnson com- mented, Everyone did a good job at trying to change the yearbook for the best.

What does our Image Board represent? It represents the literary and artistical talents of LHS students. Image isn't made up of one group of students, but two. The Literary Board was under the direction of Mrs. Judy Keller and Mr. Jim Larson, and consisted of students of Beth Broman, Kenney Loos, John Link, Terri Mathews, Katie Narveson, Traci Stoakes, Tersa Stoakes and Tami Stoehr. The Artistic Board was led by Mr. George Sedlacek and members were Jill Peterson, Amy Hansen and Kelli Walin. Miss Carolyn Goodwin helped both groups with writing and layouts. Image's purpose was to put out an annual publication of short stories, poems, essays and drawings or paintings. This purpose was realized with May's distribution. The book was funded partially by PSAB and by student efforts. Goals are set each year by the board members. This year's goals included making an effort to put out a better publication than in previous years and being sure that all IMAGE ART BOARD-Row I: Kelli Walin. Jill Peterson.

Student Life-20 Student Council supported American Education Week by participating in a rally at the Capitol. LHS StuCo active Active is one word a person could use to describe the 1979-80 Student Council. They were involved in numer- ous projects that served both the school and the community. Headed by President Kate Kopischke, the group planned Homecoming, the Distinguished Alumni Recog- nition. Halloween parties for grade schoolers, the Pickle Dance, the Holiday Dance, Sadie Hawkins, a film festival and other projects. They also retook pictures for use in a slide show about Lincoln High and they marched in the American Education Week Rally at the State Capitol. Some members attended the Nebraska Association of Student Council convention in November in Scottsbluff, where LHS council member Carol Junge was elected State Treasurer. The members who attended the conven- tion learned many new ways to improve school spirit and pride. Kopischke felt that this year was great I think we have a super council, she said. Everyone pitched in and we got a lot done. Representing the senior class on Student Council were Louise Sharp; Joel Thornton. Historian; Mike Fen, Vice President; Bill Szaliwiga; Susan Lococo, Treasurer; and Korinna Jones. The juniors were Nancy Oppegard, Carol Junge, Suzanne Peterson. Kate Kopischke and Lisa Venhaus. The sophomore members were Anne Buntain, Lori Guthrie, Lisa Swing, Jana Turpin. Carleen Draper and Greg Hoag. The upperclassmen and the juniors were elected last spring and the sophomores were elected in mid-September. This year there were three non-voting members on the council. They were Amy Hansen, Jeni Turpin and Nancy Gabelman. Bufurd Grosscup was the sponsor. Overall Student Council had a very busy and produc- tive year doing things for LHS and its students. 1979-80 STUDENT COUNCIL—Seated: Greg Hoag. Kate Kopischke. Anne Buntain. Louise Sharp.

LHS in government The Student Advisory Board was a group of students who attended bi weekly meetings to PSAB to discuss stu- dent rules dealing with activities and other issues. Special committees were formed to investigate some topics. Lincoln High was very active on the board. The members were: Carol Junge, Mike Fen. Kate Kopischke, Suzanne Peterson, Susan Lococo, Ann Henning and Lori Guthrie. Basically, the Student Advisory Board served as the voice of Lincoln High students who had something to say to the administration. Another government related activity was County Government Day. Fourteen Lincoln High juniors were elected in the beginning of November to take part in the day-long learning session. On November 14, the elected officials went to the County-City building and saw where their county officials worked and what their jobs were. After the tour, the students went to the Legionnaire Club for lunch and listened to guest speaker, State Attorney Gen- eral Paul Douglas. County Government Day participants and their offi- ces were: Steve Peiper, County Attorney; Shelly Searcey, County Judge; Wendy Hanshaw, County Commissioner: Cheryl Cooke, District Court Clerk; Christi Pfeifer, Juvenile Court Judge; Jim Baker, County Engineer; Kim Lamb, Election Commissioner; Mike Jordan, Public Defender; Jeff Horacek, County Sheriff; Cindy McMahan, Registrar of Deeds; Gayle Adams, Civil Defense Director; Rochelle Hitz, County Assessor; Chris Burbach, County Assessor; and Anne Hamersky.

Working with their faculty sponsors, these two groups of students helped their classes achieve goals. Raising money for their treasury was one of the Sophomore Steering Commit- tee goals this year. The group funded itself by selling M M's in school and conces- sions at football and basketball games. Leadership in the committee consisted of Lori Adams. President; Anne Buntain. Vice President; Bobbie Reid. Secretary; and Eric Purkilitis. Treasurer. Louise Baugher and Dick Patterson were the sponsors. Prom was the main topic on the Junior Steering Committee's agenda. Other proj- ects the juniors were involved in were sell- ing spirit buttons and bum per stickers along with assisting in graduation and Baccalaureate. The officers were Jerry Gray. President; Mike Patterson. Vice Pres- ident; Laurie Cirksena. Secretary; and Jill Wiese. Treasurer. Jerry Neff and Tom Pappas were the sponsors for the junior class. Both groups put forth a lot of effort in order to fulfill their goals. In the words of one committee member the Steering Committees brought the class together and let students take part in school activities. 1979-80 JUNIOR STEERING COMMITTEE-Row 1: Leah Shaw.

Well, if you enjoy field trips you should have been a member of the 1979-80 LHS Medical Club. The interest in the club grew this year to fifteen members. Going on a field trip once a month to a medical-re- lated place served as their meetings. The purpose of the group was to make inter- ested students aware of the health-related professions that are available. Sponsor Mrs. Carol Epp said, It is interesting work- ing with the students involved in this club. It is also interesting to see the different health areas that are changing all the time. 1979-80 MEDICAL CLUB—Row I: Shane Podraza. Martha Hillman Row 2: Rashidah Abdullah. Mrs Joan Huffer.

Formerly known as Coed Counselors, their purpose is to introduce new students to the school. They do this in many ways. Early in the year they held a sophomore orientation. Other activities were giving tours of the school, having student get-to- gethers and during the Alumni Weekend, they were in charge of escorting alumni around the school. Comrade President Ruth Boham reflected on her year saying, My time was well spent. I wish more people would have been involved. 1979-80 COMRADES—Standing: Greg Kats. Ruth Boham.

If you were then you were one of the active members of the Senior Steering Committee. Bizarre was a good word to describe this group because of its size. The well-organ- ized group had a blasting membership of approximately 60 students. In the past years the committee consisted of around 20 members. Members became involved by a volun- tary sign-up in the counselor's office. They were warned that the faculty sponsors. Mrs. Alma Howdeshell and Dr. Jean Kleitsch, reserved the right to remove any member who failed to meet his or her obligations.

Anne Frank, a young Jewish girl, kept a diary of her family’s struggle to live in such a hiding place. The Diary of Anne Frank,” Lincoln High School's All School Play, success- fully portrayed the joys and heartaches of the Franks. Leslie Forbes played the role of Anne Frank and won the heart of the audience. The play was presented on November 8 and 9. High levels of emotion and tension made it an excellent production. LHS Drama Instructor, Joan Lazurus, was the director. Student Director was Mikki Drees. Rounding out the cast were: Amy Thone. Miep; Audrey Oboyle. Mrs. Van Daan; Brian Everman. Mr. Van Daan: Kent Holbert. Peter Van Daan: Tom Hin- shaw. Mr. Frank: Hillary Doerr, Mrs. Frank: Michelle McCann, Margot Frank: Lance Purdy, Mr. Kraler: and Scott Haller. Mr. Dussel.

Put some drama into your life' was the theme for 65 Lincoln High students involved in Mummers this year. Mummers provided an opportunity for people to meet one another at the beginning of the school year when they held their annual get acquainted Welcome back to school picnic” at Antelope Park. Besides the pic- nic, the group held a Halloween Party, a Holiday Gift Exchange, and other social events. Mummers Sponsor Joan Lazurus said.

In order to try out for the play, a prospective cast member had to be a Mummers' member. To be in Mummers, a member had to earn one Mummers point for each month he was a member. One point was equal to 10 hours quality work in the drama field. The officers of Mummers this year were Hillary Doerr. president; Mikki Drees, vice- president; Tammi Preston, secretary; Kelly Ellenwood. treasurer; Scott Haller, histo- rian; Lynda Fagerberg. publicity chairper son; Kim Brown and Kim Sandberg, librarians. Mummers worked on several projects this year. They sold buttons with Put some drama into your life printed on them, attended a drama convention in Omaha and used their performing skills in Outreach. Outreach was a committee that went to organizations outside of the school and performed puppet shows, creative dra- matics work shops and story telling. At times they were performing twice a week. Over Christmas, they presented the play The Grinch Who Stole Christmas to grade school children. As to Outreach, Lazurus felt it was wonderful to see LHS kids performing with children. Mummers was one of the largest and most diverse clubs in school. It offered something for anyone who was willing to get involved with drama. 1979 80 MUMMERS OFFI CERS —Row 1: Kim Sandberg, librarian; Ms. Joan Lazarus, sponsor; Tammi Preston, secretary.

It’s hot in the shade The Lincoln High School Music Department presented their annual musi- cal March 27. 28 and 29 in the Lincoln High Auditorium. M110 in the Shade ’ a musical comedy, was directed by Vocal Music Instructor Joseph Skutchan. The musical takes place in a drought stricken Western town. A bachelor hunt- ing girl. Lizzie, seeks to find the man just right for her. She meets up with the fabu- lous Starbuck who claims himself as being the Rainmaker, and that's when all her problems, triumphs, and heartbreaks began. Mr. John (Jlrich and his orchestra pro- vided the instrumental music while Skut- chan's singers provided the voices for such memorable songs as Raunchy.” “A Man and A Woman,’’ and “Everything Beautiful Happens at Night” Choreog- raphy was by Anne Buntain. Most of the cast members also were members of the LHS Concert Choir which also was directed by Skutchan. The Con- cert Choir allowed students who were interested in singing to practice and per- form. Membership was by audition only. Most members were selected during the preceding spring, but some were added over the semester break. The group per- formed at several events including All-City Choir Night Jimmy knows Lizzie's Cornin' Home. Jimmy and Snookie give a few explanations in Little Red Hat Student Life-29 Peppers lend support ‘Hey Links. . . somebody's callin' your name.” was a familiar cry heard at many sporting events. Who was that somebody? That someBODY was Pep Club, the larg- est club at Lincoln High. Co-sponsors Sally Roper and the pep club officers Mickie Bechtolt, President; Connie Carlson. Vice President; Lisa Thaller. Secretary; and Sue Rengstorf. Treasurer; met over the summer to set the goals and plan the activities for the 1979- 80 school year. Improvement was always on the minds of the girls. Peppers were assigned to spirit squads for the fall sports season and were allowed to chose their own squad for win- ter sports events. Each girl was required to make locker signs, attend sporting events and other contests to earn the minimum 43 points per season. Basically. Peppers received one point for every hour of participation. Many girls put in more than 80 hours throughout the year supporting their teams. Renee Aupperle. Lisa Thaller and Nancy Vader cheer for their favorite reserve football players.

Spirit maintained Fostering school spirit, guiding people in routines for team spirit and familiarizing people with members of the teams are our goals, says Cheerleading Sponsor Molly Spinar. Fifteen Lincoln High School girls make up the two squads known as Varsity and Reseve Cheerleaders. These girls participate in spirit week, pep rallies and LHS athletic team games and meets. The Varsity squad consisted of 10 seniors. They were Darlene Berks, Sara Gies, Ann Henning, Karen Lococo, Susan Lococof president), Marcene Metzger, Silvia Paegili- tis, Deb Schmalken, Lisa Vetter and Janelle Wiese. This year the varsities went to a clinic held at Lake Ojoboji in Iowa. There, they learned routines and chants to help them perform throughout the school year. The Reserve squad was made up of five junior girls, Leah Shaw, Kate Kopischke, Lisa Scott, Laurie Cirksena and Shelly Searcey. Reserve clinics were held at Junction City, Kansas. These girls perform many of the same things the varsity squad do. They're smaller but their spirit is mighty. Very little school funding is given to the Cheerleaders. The girls must buy their own uniforms and spend money for many other things throughout the year. This year car washes, selling T-shirts and lucky pennies were all big fund raisers. Energy and time was put out by all the girls in order to build school spirit. Working hard with these 15 girls was Mrs. Spinar. This was actually her first full year working in this field, although a couple of years ago, she replaced a sponsor for about half of a year. Her comment toward the whole activity was I feel lucky because I work with neat kids. Marcene Metzger shakes it Student Ufe-32 Karen Lococo supports the team with her spirit.

Marching at the State Pair can be tiring and hot Practice makes Pomalinks Performing at pep rallies, marching at the State Fair and attending summer clin- ics were only a few of the 1979 80 Poma- link activities. The Drill Team was composed of eight senior and ten junior girls. After tryouts last spring, the squad met to decide on their uniforms, when to meet and which clinics to attend. Half of the girls went to the American Drill Team Association Clinic at the Uni- versity of Nebraska-Lincoln and the others went to the National Cheerleaders Associ- ation workshop at Nebraska Wesleyan. After the clinics were over, the group got together three times a week diring the summer to teach and practice new routines. The drill team started performing early in August when they marched in the Shrine Parade. They also marched with the LHS Marching Band at the Nebraska State Fair in September. At the fair, the Pomalinks performed to the song “Rubber Band Man three times. Their first in-school performance was at the North Platte pep rally. Throughout Football and Basketball season, half time crowds were entertained by the Pomalinks. Beside performing, the drill team was also a part of pep club. Each member had to make locker signs and attend various sporting events to obtain enough pep club points. The officers of this year's team were Carolyn Rexilius, President; Marcia Richards. Vice President; Faith Miller. Secretary Treasurer. The rest of the squad included Kim Brown. Chris Bur- bach, Pam Burger. Linda Dickey, Cindy East. Dawn Ginger. Korinna Jones, Cindi Life. Candy Mehan. Karen Miller, Susan Searcey. Barb Sears, Lynn Strange, Deb- bie Todd and Nancy Wolff. Meeting people and making new friends was one way junior Faith Miller benefitted from her involvement with drill team. ‘‘It‘s a way to get to know a different side of students. said fourth-year Pomalinks Sponsor Cheryl Gadeken.

Changes were made this year to improve this activity that took place on October 5 and 6. Homecoming started with the invitations sent out to guest alumni. These alumni were LHS graduates. They were people who had succeeded or should we say exper- ienced a job well done. The honored alumni were: Paul Amen '34, Ralph Beechner '26, Edwin Faulkner '28, Ted L. Gunderson 46, Barbara Lautzenheiser '56, Shirley Marsh 46, John Robinson 61, Robert G. Volz '50, Herman Rohrig '36, Emmanuel Wichnow '27, Dick Cavett '51, and Mary Jo Hann '36. A special alumni dinner was held on Friday. There also was a morning assembly for all LHS students and staff in which the alumni were honored. Later in the afternoon, a pep rally was held in the auditorium. The cheerleaders cheered and the Pomalinks performed along with the band and flag corps. The hidden school spirit seemed to come out of the woodwork and the whole school became electrified, ready for the big game. The evening of October 5 was sort of a block for everyone's spirit when LHS lost to Grand Island to a score of 14 to 0. The Homecoming Court was introduced at the foot- ball game, giving parents a chance to view the activities. The court consisted of King Scott Barron and Queen Marcia Richards. The attendants were Craig Mulligan, Janelle Wiese. Dwight Dumpert, Susan Lococo, Anietie (Jdofia, Nancy Wolff, Bruce Crowther and Karen Lococo. Homecoming came to an end on the evening of October 6. It closed with a dance with music by the group Buckeye. Seniors have left, juniors only a year to go, and sophomores look ahead, but all still know there's always a place tomorrow for their Homecoming. This years Homecoming was planned by a faculty special committee. Thanks goes to Dr. Charles Jones, Mr. Bill Pfeiff, Mr. Harold Scott, Mr. Lee Johnson, Miss Betty Heckman, and Mrs. Merrel Grant. Student committee members were Marcia Richards, Derrick Hull, Korinna Jones, and Kate Kopischke. 1979-80 Homecoming Court—Attendants: Janelle Wiese. Craig Mulligan. Susan Lococo. Dwight Dumper!

Art work by various black artists was displayed in the alcove by the Media Center during Black His- tory Month. Venture members work on skits for an upcoming assembly. Every day situations were brought out in Venture. Student Life-38 Liz Burden and Edd Burton look up information on prominent blacks during Black History Month. Groups bring awareness Venture is a group of students and teachers from all four Lincoln high schools. Their purpose is to open peoples’ eyes by acting out skits depicting everyday living situations. These skits concern what’s happening in the community, in the school and in everyday life. This year. Venture was not as active at LHS at it has been in the past. For those who have seen Venture or been a part of it they realize the effect that skits can have on people. Venture held a retreat at St Paul Metho- dist church on Saturday March 8. Tammi Preston. Venture member said. “This meeting was to get new members in Venture and to get the group organized again.’’ Meetings were held once a week to practice skits and talk about related Ven- ture activities. February was Black History Month at Lincoln High. A committee headed by Dr. Charles Jones was formed in the begin- ning of the year to decide what activities would be included in observance of the special month. In years before, an assem- bly was held to recognize blacks who made significant achievements to society. There were also sound announcements. This year there was no assembly and due to the construction in the office, there were no sould announcements, but there were several displays in the media center alcove. Art work and books were just a few of the items made visible by this committee. One of the main purposes of this group was to make the school aware of impor- tant events in the history of blacks. Although the committee had several obstructions in its way. they were able to give Lincoln High a view of Black History. L-Clubs back varsity athletics L-Clubs this year were involved in supporting varsity athletics. To be in L-Club, a member had to earn a varsity letter in any sport. Boys L-Club was led by Bruce Crowther, President; Bill Szaliwiga, Vice President; Joel Thornton, Secretary; and Nate Cldofia, Historian. Nowadays, L-Club is just another club. It's not the spirited group it used to be, said Crowther. He hopes to get L-Club going again. If we plan some- thing, I want to get it done, he added. One of the main functions of both girls and boys L-Club is the spring All-Sports Banquet. Boys L-Club sold programs at football games and the Boys State Gymnastic Meet as well as selling concessions at boys basketball games to raise money for the banquet. The Girls L-Club officers were Anne Draper, Presi- dent; Darlene Berks, Vice President; Sara Gies, Treasurer; Ruth Boham, Secretary; and Jolynn Densberger and Deb Schmalked, Historians. To raise money, the girls sold candy at the beginning of the year and planned other fund raising activities for their part in the All-Sports Banquet 1979S0 GIRLS L-CLUB—Row I: Jolynn Densberger.

Mew Debate Sponsor Mr. Al Law- rence, a former Lincoln Learning Center faculty member, began his first year at LHS this past school term. Travelling from state to state and from town to town were Lawrence’s successful debate teams. Eight LHS students were divided into four teams. They were Greg WawTyszczuk and Jeny Leever. Kris Miller and Kyle Baker. Cindi Life and Ron Bus- kirk, and Jennifer Luethje and Emily Wawryszczuk. One change for the debate team this year was a cut in their yearly budget. To try to keep this cut from affecting the team substantially, they were invoved in money making projects and they also rode the same bus with East High School when they went to out of town tournaments. The bus pool allowed the team to save money and participate in more tournaments. Growing and becoming a more visible activity, LHS debaters showed their strength on Friday March 7 at the District Debate Tournaments held at Nebraska Wesleyan. Greg Wawryszczuk and Jerry Leever placed eighth in competition with debate teams from all over the area. Kyle Baker and Kris Miller research an important issue at the District Debate Tournament held at Nebraska Wesleyan. Cindi Life and Ron Buskirk prepare for their second round of debate.

During State Music Clinics held in November, Lincoln High had the most students (18) participating and the highest percentage of students attending who tried out. Lincoln High Orchestra members who were chosen to attend were: Donna Carnes, Claire Mikkelson. Katie Nar- veson, Beth Broman, Claudia Herzog, Hillary Doerr, Aud- rey Oboyle, Brenda Frank, Mike Herzog, Kim Brooks, Mark Tuttle, Mark Benson. Jeff Gaines, John Ellis, Scott Haller, Jon Paul, Tom Hinshaw and Paul Beum. Orchestrally, LHS was a dominant force,” stated Mr. Cllrich focusing on competition. The State Clinic was a terrific showcase for the kids. A few orchestra members were selected to be on various honor groups throughout the year and they per- formed at Hastings and Wesleyan. The string section of the orchestra went out on their own and performed at the Distinguished Alumni banquet in the fall. At the beginning of the year, Glrich set a high goal to be the best orchestra in the state and now he feels he has reached it. Glrich feels, We are competing against excellence. Many members of the orchestra attended summer music clinics in Colorado. Kansas and Nebraska. The students learned more and perfected their playing skills. But Glrich pointed out, More than musically, I want to turn these students into responsible, trustworthy and con- scientious nice people.” Student Life-41 The LHS Orchestra, under the direction o(John Ulrich, was one ot the best high school orchestras in the state.

Many hours of practice were put in by this group to perfect 40 or 50 tunes. Songs such as Championship. Rubberband Man and Bugsy Malone were among the favorites played. To qualify as a member of the marching band, the stu- dents had to tryout or be a returning var- sity band member. Attending all extra early morning practices also was a requirement Mr. John CJIrich. second year band sponsor and instructor commented. Our goal was not to lose any gorund because of the change in the class schedule. I think we had the potential of being a very good marching band. Mr. Ulrich added. Our potential. I feel, was not put to full use because of weather conditions and other conflicts such as the usage of the field. Members of the 1979-80 band were: Baker Anderson. Cathy Allen. Cora Baker.

They performed various places such as the State Fair, pep rallies and other school events. Clinics for the corps were held in Hastings this year. Band members, flag corps and the twirler all performed in the 1979-80 Marching Band.

Ensemble Director John CJIrich felt the band played better than last year because they didn't have one or two people that dominated the group. More players were concerned about the group as a whole. Playing at many functions, the Jazz Ensemble was a very popular LHS musical group. The ensemble per- formed at the Sertoma Club pancake feed, school con- certs. a dinner for Irving teachers and an All-City Jazz contest just to name a few. They also held exchanges with college bands where each group would come to the oth- er's school and play. Besides performing well, Ulrich has set a goal for all members of Jazz Ensemble, I want these kids to learn something musically they can enjoy all their lives. The members of the Jazz Ensemble were: Mark Ben- son, Paul Beum, Aaron Drake, Jack Bottger, Linda Mah, Eileen Nett let on, Jeff Gaines, John Ellis, Phil Mally, Kristi Pfeifer, Mike Wright, Dave Eilers, Bob Lyons, Barry Town- send, Alan Worster, Greg Kats, Renee Johnson, Pam Burger, Tim Vontz, B.

How would you like to pay $5.00 or more to watch a musical performance and during it have beggars walking around begging for money or even food off your plates? Many of you may be turned off but don't be. The 1979- BO Madrigal Yuletide Feaste was a total success. Tickets to this event numbering 170 a night sold out for both perform- ances. The feaste was held November 30 and December 1 at 7:00 p.m. It may well have been said to be one of the most enjoyable musical activities put on this year. Singing an arrangement of Christ- mas music were the 16 members of the Lincoln High School Madrigal Singers, they were: Ruth Boham, Kim Brown, Bruce Crowther, Deni Disney, Tim Draper, Tom Hinshaw listens while Ian Lipsky tells a witty joke to the audience Chris Erickson, Jon Fuenning, Joe Gehr, Jennifer Luethje, Annie Mumgaard, Lori Nichelson, Steve Novak, Monica Polivka, Bob Propst, Loma Walbridge and Chris Wilson. The vocal director of these stu- dents was Joe Skutchan, LHS staff mem- ber. The Yuletide Feaste, centering around music, comedy and a five course meal was the main performance of the madrigals. Some of the music performed during the feaste was All Ye Who Music Love, What Child is This?,” “The Holly Carol, Thinks't Thou Then Be Thy Feigning, Since First I Saw Your Face, “God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen, Coven- try Carol, Catalonian Carol, When My Rich Husband Is at Home. and We Wish You a Merry Christmas. They also had a sing along for the audience singing, Joy to the World, The First Noel, Hark! The Herald Angels Sing, and O Come All Ye Faithful. The Madrigals practiced every day dur- ing first period. They also put in extra hours of practice every night of the week before their Yuletide performance. Be- sides the Yuletide Feaste, performances were held at school and community func- tions. Mr. Skutchan. their director com- mented, I think this has been a fantastic, marvelous, cooperative group for the first one. The Yuletide Feaste was one of the best experiences that I've had in my whole teaching career. L.H.S. is proud to have such a grand musical group representing their school!

Girts Glee was for girts who loved to sing. Glee Shines The 1979-80 Advanced Girls Glee was a new group that was added to the LHS music program this year. The group is made up of 16 LHS girls. Cindy McMahan, Candy Mehan, LeAnn Morgan, Karen Pa- tocka, Cindi Pfeil, Donna Phillips, Patty Reed, Caren Richards, Julie Scaggs, Katie Schizas, Meg Schultz, Kim Shafer, Connie Sherwood, Leah Siebert, Marquita Malley. and Julie Williams were all vocal members of this singing group. Mrs. Julie Knowles was the vocal director for these girls. They sang in various places this past year. One of their main outings was when the North- east Girls Choir came here and sang in the fall and in return our Advanced Girls Choir went to Northeast to sing in the spring. Many of the girls also participated in acts for Joy Night This group does not receive a lot of recognition from the school but hopes to build their popularity as they go along. Julie Knowles said, They're a very well-balanced group and have a very mature sound. They sing well together.

Student Life-48 Talent that shows Singing and dancing are the two main attractions that bring people to watch these two groups perform. Many of these students are beginners in the field of music, with a few having some previous musical experience. These stu- dents spend many hours of deep-hearted practice to per- fect their work. If you’ve ever seen them it shows! Besides in-class practice, these students also go to music clinics and some are even involved with summer music camps held out of state. Mr. Joseph Skutchan is the musical director of the sophomore swing choir. Commenting about his group Skutchan said, This is the first year that I used four parts and it went very well. They learned their music very quickly. Susan Michel son, Amy Ellenwood, Mary Morrow, Cheryl Sterling, Kathy Andrews, Kate Szalawiga, Peggy Gaube, Ellie Gies, Gerald Henderson, Mick Dyer, Clay Schonberger, Paul Virus, Todd Hildenbrand, Rick Albert- son, Mike Steele and Ken Hammer were the members of this sophomore singing group. Their practice was held each day during sixth period. Performances were held this year at the governor's mansion, for the master's luncheon and various other places including the school. The varsity swing choir members are Randy Ayres, Anna Baker, Scott Barron, Mickie Bechtolt, Liz Burden, Diane Clark, Kelly Ellenwood, Jim Gaube, Kevin Koca, Joni Longan, Steve Novak and Paul Smith. This singing group was under the direction of Mrs. Julie Knowles. Knowles said They're a very talented and organized group. They're in great demand as a performing group. Practice is held for this group during seventh period of each school day. They practice different types of music and also practice choreography. Performances were held at places like Gateway Mall, Pancake Feed, Governor's Mansion and for civic and community organizations. Some of the students performing with these groups will use the background with the swing choir as a basis for a musical career. For others music will stay an enjoyable pastime. Music enlightens the hearts of many and leaves very few untouched. Having such popular musical groups adds life to LHS. Varsity Swing Choir sings and swings while entertaining. International Club was represented at Nebraska Model United Nations. Deni Disney was an AFS student to Turkey. Kelly EJIenwood was an A.F.S. student last summer. Student Life-50 International Club explores Learning new cultures, exchanging travel experiences, and broadening cul- tural awareness in Lincoln High and the community were some main projects of the 1979-80 International Club. According to President Deni Disney, the year got off to a good start as students shared their trips abroad through slides and movies. Club parties were also held to get students better acquainted. International Club was active in the Nebraska Model United Nations held at the University of Nebraska in February. Representing the country Romania in dis- cussion and debate, like the real United Nations, were Deni Disney. Ann Creamer, Kelly Ellenwood, and Ruth Boham. Other planned activities included working with the Education Equity Committee in set- ting up a display case of translated poems and posters, and talking about different cultures to a Blue Bird troop who was celebrating an international year. The club met once a month with spon- sors Mrs. Molly Spinar and Ms. Kathy Brauer. Club officers other than Disney were Katie Schizas, vicepresident: and Ann Creamer, treasurer-secretary.

Aqualinks—A touch of class Jolynn Dennsberger and Susan Searcey pertorm some graceful stunts. “A Touch of Class” was the theme for the 1980 Aqualinks. Aqualinks is the name for the LHS synchronized swim- ming club. To be a member, girls must try out in mid-January. Before tryouts, clinics are held after school to teach strokes and dives. Some girls have also taken syn- chronized swimming class. During the actual audition, the girls perform a variety of stunts in front of a panel of judges com- posed of the four Aqualink officers and the faculty sponsor. This year 19 girls make up the squad. The officers are Barb Sears, President; Sara Gies, Vice President; Karla Gish, Secretary; and Lisa Vetter. Scenery Chair- person. Other members include Denise Varner. Jody Jones, Suzy Marlette, Susan Searcey, Patty Reed, Jolynn Dennsberger. Anne Buntain, Suzanne Peterson, Sue Dempsey, Lori Guthrie, Renee Aupperle, Deb Todd.

Music for this show ranged from clas- sical Gershwin to the theme from the movie “The Wiz. Aqualinks President Barb Sears said, The girls this year are working as hard or harder than last year.” Although limited on practice time, Sears felt, This year's show should have been the best we’ve ever had. 1979-80 AQUALINKS—Row 1: Denise Varner.

Club for everyone What used to be the Horticulture Club has now become FFA, Future Farmers of America. The club, made up of LHS students interested in agriculture, met once a week to discuss competition and field trips. Studying plants in the classroom greenhouse and participating in hands on farm work, gave members excellent opportunities to learn about possible futures in farming. These Future Farmers of America expanded their learning experiences when they became involved in var- ious FFA tournaments. At district competition held at East Butler High School in Brainard, Nebraska, Bob Pierce received a white ribbon in wildlife speaking. Clover Merkle received a blue ribbon for second place in a speech on Bio-Mass as a future energy source. Art Club was an organization for students who expressed an interest in art Activities at meetings varied. Many people entered their projects in competition. Some members turned in art work for Image magazine. The club also gave students a chance to work on projects they were creating in art classes. For seniors interested in art as a career, club sponsors helped them chose schools or institutes to attend for further training. Art Club was sponsored by Mrs. Anne El-Omani. FFA members used their green house to experiment on many types of plant growing conditions. Art Club members work on various projects. LHS Dances—Crazy and Enjoyable Slow dancing is relaxing and . Remember the times that everyone was crowded together, the music was blaring and people were acting crazy? No it wasn't the local neighborhood party. It was a school dance. Dances were sponsored by such groups as Student Council, L-Clubs. Pep Club, Steering Committee, and also special groups as the sponsors of Turkey Ball. These activities either took place in the school gyms or some room rented outside the school. Generally records were played and occasionally there was a disc jockey or even a live band. Actually dances made a rather enjoyable and inexpensive evening. Prices generally ran a dollar or maybe a little more. The only expensive dances were the formats which were well worth the approximate 55.00 per couple. Dances were well worth the time and effort that was spent in getting them ready. Next time you're depressed or lonely try going to a Lincoln High dance. These students think they're on American Bandstand Left: Kris Smith and Karl Mussman relax after shaking their grove things.

To me it's an education and that's why I went into it’ said '(Jp With People' Cast Member Randy Hamilton of Tuscon. Arizona. Student Life54 (Jp With People involves everyday situations with their music. LHS hosts variety performers On October 31, 1979, Lincoln High School had the honor of watching an (Jp With People performance. It was held in Johnson Gym. They performed a variety of country, popular, gospel and rock music. One of the main features of this group was involving the audience in their performance. “Up With People. made up of five hundred students coming from 23 coun- tries around the world, is a song and dance group known throughout the world. The group is made up of people ranging from 18 to 26 years of age and coming from all walks of life. Up With People is a non-profit organi- zation. Each cast member had to pay $4.500 in order to participate. These peo- ple travel in groups of 100. Being an Up With People member is not as easy as just saying I want to join. Each member must go through an inter- view in which he or she is screened. The cast is picked mainly on personality but leadership, maturity and love for others are characteristics that members should have. Work has just begun after making the cast. In July, each member reports to Tuscon. Arizona where they stay for five weeks practicing 12 hours a day six days a week. Each member must keep their ap- pearance up at all times. The group is in the public eye and is representative of young people everywhere they go. When they leave Arizona in August, they travel to perform in prisons, nursing homes, audito- riums, parks and many other places. Something next year will be of special interest to Lincoln High.

Fans are devoted The Boys Swimming and Wrestling Auxiliaries spent much of their time making locker signs and attending competition this year. Both groups were organized by students who were interested in promoting school spirit and assisting the coaches. The auxiliaries aren't a part of pep club, they set up and follow their own rules. The Swimming Auxiliary helped coach Gene Cotter out by timing, working the recall rope, place judging and making the team various edibles for their swim meets. The Wrestling Auxiliary, also known as the LHS Mat Maids participated in wrestling meets by helping the coaches and attending the tournaments. Both Boys Swimming and Wrestling teams felt the auxiliaries gave them support and were beneficial. 1979-80 BOYS SWIMMING AUXILIARY. Row I: Susan Wrede. Lisa Keller. Jackie Hoppens.

You can't slow down time and you can t speed it up. No matter how hard a person tries to make ti me fly or slow down, there are still 60 minutes to an hour. 24 hours to a day, and 365 days to a year. Time is always constant Time is a part of everyone's life. But we all differ in the ways that we spend it If given an hour all of us would spend it differently. One might choose to study, or maybe go to a movie, listen to the stereo or spend their time in another active way. We do certain things at certain times. We change time with our moods and as we go, it changes us. The line is said that time tells.’’ Time tells what we will become or what direction our life will lead. Time may seem to last an eternity or pass by as if we never held it For everyone there is time. What is time to you? Above: Sue Nichelson demonstrates that no one is too old for fun in the snow Below: Sipping a Wendy's coke brings a smile from Joni Longan. Fads involve everyone They call it an American fad! Sarcas- tic t-shirts, feathered hair, braided hair, tans, muscles, bright clothes, high heels, tennis shoes, locker signs, designer jeans, roller skating, skiing, jogging, fast food joints, posters, and hiking boots are just a few of today's arena of fads. Outrageous? Yes! Everything has become a fad. Fads are a way for today's youth to distinguish their indi- viduality. to show their character and above all to bring a response. Fading fads are soon replaced by new ones. Fad is part of the word fade and so as soon as a fad is picked up it soon fades out Come one, come all. Fads are fun! Contrary to popular belief that fads deal only with clothing, fads can be found almost anywhere, anytime with any- body. Fads keep a record for yesterday and build a picture for tomorrow. When tomorrow changes and times change so will our fads. Our memories of our fads compile with our smiles and frowns of yesterday's madness. Fadmania is wrapped around today's youth, mainly the teenager. It gives these young adults something to enjoy and laugh at in hard times. When the walls come crashing in and you think there's nothing left to laugh at or smile at. think again—Today's Fads! Yesterday's fads often make a color- ful world for tomorrow's fashions. Pop- ular fashions arise from crazy fads. When you see someone walk down the street in a crazy outfit or doing some- thing crazy don't laugh, tomorrow he may laugh at you in his money making fashion industry.

However, now that graduation has arrived, it is at this point in time that seniors should begin to acknowledge their individuality. Many are looking forward to going into the world and facing life on their own. Some will choose to go on to college, where they will be working toward a personal goal of education. Others, that put less emphasis on college, may start working in a job to fulfill their goals. But no matter what seniors choose to do with their lives, they can be sure that it is something that they, as individuals, have acquired for themselves. As seniors, this is the last year that they will be a part of Lincoln High and Lincoln High a part of their lives. Many of them have given long hours to the school through various activities like sports, drama, music and other groups. All have felt the pride of being a Link in some way or another. Together seniors strived to be the best that they could be. They wanted to make their last year more memorable. Among the first of their memories will be the friendships that have been made through these groups. There will be good times to remember and some bad times they may like to forget High school was certainly a time of learning. Seniors learned many things that would help them later in life. Some of the classes taken were Psychology and Chemis- try. Some students took easier classes so they would have more time to socialize. Besides learning from their teachers and books, they also learned from their class- mates. But most important, the senior year taught them how they could grow and mature into productive human beings. Now the time has come for all seniors to go on and face the future. It will be hard for some to break apart and start a new life away from high school. Seniors must become more independent and stand aside from the crowd. When they cross that stage on graduation night one forth of their lives will be over. They will have reached one of their many goals. Society will now view them adults, and along with this comes responsibilities. If they have faith in themselves, they can succeed. Good luck Class of 1980, the class of a new decade. The future is yours.

Librarians, finding refer- ences diminishing, instituted strict regulations for checking out books and magazines. Other rules enforced more severely this past year included keeping a quiet atmosphere, no food or drinks allowed, and a new pass check system. Enforcing these rules with fines, checking in passes, and a new detection system was a big job that required hard-nosed individuals. Many students, however, rebelled against the strict system complaining that the library was no longer ‘ theirs and they weren’t allowed to take advantage of it under the new regula- tions. Many were enraged by the new airport terminal detec- tion sensor, feeling it was an infringement of their rights. When this year's seniors were sophomores, the library was only a year old. Students were very proud of the brand new addition. This respect dwindled as time went on. Many students took advantage of the library for the wrong reasons. References started disappearing and librarians were faced with a real prob- lem of disappearing books. A lot more credit is due to those individuals who made an effort to give Lincoln High’s media center the name it used to have, by offering a quiet, complete study area for students.

Only the top quarter of the senior class is eligible for the honors, based primarily on scholarship with leadership, citizenship, extracurricular activities, and ser- vice as factors. Administrative chairman of NHS at Lincoln High. Don Dean, explained students are elected following their fifth semester at Lincoln High, that is, after their first semester as a senior. They are in the running from the day they walk in that front door as a sophomore, Dean said. A student's cumulative record from all three years of grade averages, extra activities and services are used to determine his eligibility as a senior. PSAB prescribed when the students were to be _ selected and how the honors should be described. Ours is honorary only, with no club activities, said Dean. Selected members were required to pay 50 cents dues and participate in the initiation ceremony held on April 24, at 7:30 p.m. at Lincoln High. This was the only required activity for NHS. In the past, some students did not attend the initiation for invalid reasons, which is why attendance was required this year. A faculty committee was in charge of all selection and initiation procedures at Lincoln High. Their duties included verifying cumulative records, making sure all computer information was accurate, filling out cards for each student on points earned, planning the ceremony, and providing invitations, certificates, and membership cards to students. Mr. Bob Compton was chairman of the committee. National Honor Society members will have this recognition put on their total school record, which is viewed by colleges and prospective employers.

About the opposite of mime (page 186), the Readers Theatre focueses on drama through reading with no props, scenery or movement. Members of Readers Theatre use only their voice and facial expression to describe a scene. The readers do not memo- rize their parts, but read from scripts. In their first year. Readers Theatre read various works of Mark Twain. h am siinl This past year they focused on fam- ily relationships, growing up, and family events. They performed this act for the school on January 31. Some scenes included an episode on courting or dating, a family pic- nic, a telephone conversation, and two babies meeting each other. Another show consisted of the four topics: science fiction, child- rens’ literature, adult humor, and serious adult readings. Advisor Joan Lazarus called it a mixed bag. 1979-00 READERS THEATRE Beth Houlihan Liz Howard Pam Howard Dan Huff Brian Hughes Renae Hursh Lori Hutson Linda Imlay Donetta Jackson Jon Jeys Justine Johnson Seniors-75 JoLynn Densberger and Vickie Snyder can t figure out why they took accounting class Michael Johnson T roy Johnson Korinna Jones Mary Jones Gary Jorgens LuAnn Journey Sandy Kahn Annie Kalita Jody Kapke Dario Scott discovers how rough it can get on Roger Kapustka Denise Keller Regina Kesselring Donna Klimes Randy Kobler Greg Kohout Seniors-76 the football field Carl Kopischke Brian Kraft Terri Krause Tina Krause Loren Kusy Tuong Ky Carla Lamb Rick Lassek Jerry Leever In the confusion.

We wait in anticipation, checking it every five minutes, until 12:30 finally arrives and it s time to once again make the decision of where to go for lunch. You'd better choose fast, for every second of the thirty minutes allowed is needed to drive to the destina- tion, order, eat and be back in class. Open campus is very popular at Lincoln High. Some favorite spots include McDo- nald’s. Arby’s, Wendy's. Godfather’s, Super Sub. Sam's, Dairy Queen, and Burger King. Others choose to eat at the Lincoln High cafeteria, on the patio, or in the mall on nice days. Although the first floor cafeteria is easier to get to. some complain that it’s even hard to wait in line and eat in only half an hour there also. Lincoln High’s cafeteria offers govern- ment approved type A lunches consisting of three dishes and a half-pint of milk representing the four basic food groups. Desserts, doughnuts, and ice cream are also offered. Even with all this choice, many Links prefer to take to the junk food palaces and hope for a parking place when they return!

Seniors-85 jf S TIDlLCB DDQQDDQCi ®H1(£CB ©S1Q(£. Ever hear of the Mime Troupe? Ever hear from the Mime Troupe? Mo one has ever heard a mime. Mime is acting without saying any- thing, using only exagger- ated motions, ‘robot move- ments . dance steps, and lots of facial expression. Mime can usually be done in one spot, depending on the skit said captain Jus- tine Johnson. Practiced mimes can walk (go through the motions) without going anywhere. Mimes also swim, run, ride a horse, climb ladders, walk tightropes, and fall without moving from one spot. Club member Hillary Doerr said Lincoln High’s mime repetoire ranges form a little girl losing the ice cream from her cone to a person completely shutting himself off in a box. Another popular skit had mimes sell- ing smiley faces to people. Lincoln High’s mime troupe is in its second year of revival. Their early perfor- mances this past year included presentations for the Retired Teachers Asso- ciation and at the Alumni Dinner.

Mr. Bill Myers, sponsor; Cindy McMahan, treasurer; Louise Sharp, president Usa Venhaus, vice-president If you are interested in owning your own store and being your own boss. Lincoln High's Marketing Club is for you. They try to acquaint future small business owners with some of the operational aspects of own- ing and running a business. Members discuss differ- ent methods of retailing, communication with cus- tomers and other business functions. The group had several sales projects during the year. They raised money to buy toys for Cedars Home by selling ice scrappers and balloons. Through the projects, they learned about profits and losses, public relations, and promotion of a project. Another practical business experience the club had this year was a day-long field trip to Gateway Shopping Center. The club members visited several businesses and talked with owners about the proce dures of selecting, ordering, and stocking their merchandise.

Seniors-93 Greg Wawryszczuk Mari Weiler Colleen Weixelman Richard Welchoff Bethany Wendelboe What special things will you remember most about your years at Lincoln High? The sports, the clubs, a best friends, the gang at your locker, being a sophomore and the youngest and then all of a sudden being a senior and leaving? Everyone's memories and feelings of high school are different, for we've all experienced different events, but some common happenings will be long remembers by the class of 1980. The school building and grounds have changed a lot since we were sophomores. Do you remember the old Oval cement walls and bleachers that surrounded the track and football field? No one will forget the front of the building tom up to build the J Street mall. Students used to have to cross a street to get to the north parking lot. Inside, improvements have been going on since we were sophomores also. Men in little white over- alls were a familiar sight in our hallways, gaily deco- rating our walls with yellow, orange, green, blue, and red paint The new additions of the media center, art room, and counselor offices made school work much easier for us. Not only the building has changed in these past three years. Remember sound announcements given by Mr. Pfeiff and the ever puzzling system of Day 1 and Day 2? Do you remember pep rallies your sophomore year? Fridays used to be domi- nated by students in black and red clothes with flowers from the cheerleaders. When we were juniors, do you remember when Rich Sheridan, Lincoln High’s starting basketball center, fell from a stairwell downtown and we had a district game the next day? Do you remember when the girl's track team won the Nebraska Invita- tional. boy's gymnastics went to state, and we didn't have a soccer team? Lincoln High has some different memories that only you will remember. Those personal thoughts, known only to you, are the most special.

Fen, Michael Senior Links receive recognition Each year, Lincoln High School recognizes the accomplishments of its seniors at an all-school awards assembly. This year's Senior Recogni- tion Day took place Tuesday, May 20. Sophomores, juniors and faculty members looked on as the Class of 1980 filed into Johnson Gym to be recognized for outstanding individual efforts in the areas of athletics, scho- lastics, and fine arts. Many seniors were recognized but through the years, several awards have taken on added significance either because of the tradition placed on the award or the overall area it encompasses. The winner of the school's oldest award, The Harry Sidney Dobbins Award, was Bruce Crowther. The WcgflD IU)(2)m $ award, established in 1913, recog- nizes the most outstanding senior male athlete. Varsity level head coaches, under the supervision of Athletic Director Jim Sommers, determined the winner of the award. Taken into consideration were school activities and academics in addition to athletic achievement. In athletics, Bruce excelled in gymnastics, wres- tling and baseball. Academically, he ranked in the upper three per cent of his graduating class. He also served the senior class as president The counterpart to the Harry Sidney Dobbins Award is the Girls Athletic Award. This year's winner was Anne Draper. Also a member of the upper three per cent Anne competed on Link volleyball and gymnastic teams. Mr. and Mrs. Norman Prucha estab- lished the Ned Prucha Award in 1960 to honor the individual who ranks number one in the National Honor SENIOR AWARD WINNERS —Row 1: Claire Mikkelson. Donna Carnes.

Winners of this year's keys were Hillary Doerr and Ann Draper. Both students finished with perfect 1.0 grade point averages. Seniors also are honored for out- standing accomplishments in music. The 1980 Lincoln Symphony Award was given to both Donna Carnes and Claire Mikkelson. Mark Tuttle was the winner of the WcbDD ID)aDnCl(B Arion Foundation Music Award.

Steve had a major lead in the 1980 Honors bestowed upon seniors musical in addition to being a member of the Varsity Swing Choir. JJcjdOd© Wcsflfl ©©meg Awards are also given in the special- ized areas of drama, journalism, debate and art Selected by Drama Instructor Miss Joan Lazarus as the 1980 Drama Award winner was Michell Mikki Drees. In her three-year LHS stage career, Mikki held the lead of Annie Sullivan in The Miracle Worker dur- ing her sophomore year. She was also assistant director for the 1979 All School Play, “The Diaiy of Anne Frank. She has been an active worker on many stage crews. Ann Henning won the Journalism Award.

Four senior students were recognized for their contributions to the LHS Home Eco- nomics Department Lu Ann Journey was recognized in the area of clothing and textiles; Ann Meza in foods and nutrition; Dawn Vogeltanz in housing and home furnishing; and Debra Miller in human development SENIOR AWARD WINNERS-Row 1: Jerry Leever. Greg Wawrysjczuk. Ann Henning. Mikki Drees. The majority of the LHS Marching Band is composed of underclassmen. Last fall they played at the State Fair. Underclassmen 102 vWW Not Underrated Traditionally, high school underclassmen have been forced to take the backseat when it comes to competition with seniors — and probably rightfully so. After all, it is the seniors last, and for some, first chance to view the action from the top. Thus, the word for underclassmen is next year. But Lincoln High School underclassmen are differ ent. Many do not accept the attitude of “next year. Instead, “this year is more important. Junior Kate Kopischke feels this year has served to make her a more well-rounded person. As president of the student council, a position usually held by a senior, she has found it takes a lot of hard work and dedication to do the job well. She also has come to know herself better. Kate has realized that the experience she obtained this year will be invaluable in the coming years. For Lynda Fagerberg. Mummers' publicity officer, this year has given her the time to perfect her craft and to help her deal more diplomatically with others. The groups she has been involved with have made her more at ease when talking with others and given her more self confidence. Bill Tesch, quarterback for the football team, regarded his junior year as helpful in sharpening his skills and in acquiring the right attitude about the game and life in general. He readily agrees that he had to work hard, perhaps harder than his teammates since he is the only starting junior. Bill's advice to incoming sophomores and juniors is don't get upset if you cannot do it this year, your time will come. The achievements of these juniors are but a small cross section of the overall success of the underclassmen. LHS can be proud of the juniors and sophomores for they have shown they are not only Lincoln High's pride, but are also a group that won't be out of the count, even if it takes them a couple of years to be counted. tinder classmen-103 Gayle Adams Mike Akin Jerry Albertson Dan Alit Cathy Allen Andrea Amelinckx Sharon Amerson Sam Anderson Bev Atkins Dawn Ault Renee Aupperle Randy Ayres Anna Baker Cindy Baker Jim Baker Kyle Baker Melissa Baker Frank Bartek Michelle Bauer Michelle BechtoK Rhonda Becker Jerry Beetem Russ Behrends Jan Benson Rhonda Bierbaum Jeff Blackman Rachelle Blohm Charles Bodfield Bob Bonebnght Jeff Boswell Dan Bousek Tom Brassart Deb Brekke Pam Brekke Scott Breyer Julie Bridger Rob Bridges Jeff Brittenham Andrea Brock Kim Brookes Jim Brookhouser Krista Brooks Brenda Brown Kim Brown Ninh Bui Bob Bucy Julie Buettgenbach Bill Buis Chris Burbach Pam Burger Martin Burke Charles Bums Jon Burress Edd Burton Ron Buskirk Jamne Butcher Terry Cain Roland Caldwell Connie Carlson David Carlsward Bob Carpenter Rick Carson Chuck Carter Janice Cashatt Cindy Cassel Dave Cech Rocky Chadd Bob Champoux Suzanne Chapp Darla Chnsbansen Laurie Cirksena Kathy L Clark Underclassmen-104 Kathy M Clark Susan Clark Tom Cochran Julie Coffey Mike Cole Mark Coleman Ricky Colley Ben Collins Rich Confer Gina Connett Lisa Contreras Cheryl Cooke John Cotter Tom Cotton Chris Covert Deb Cowell Darrell Cox Matt Craig Lori Crogg Mark Crosby Tina Cruickshank Dan Cuddeford Dan Cunning Pam Curtright Kent Damme Robin Danner Liz Darnell Paul Davidson Sheri Davidson Myles Davis Bill Day Lu Ann Dean Dave Debrestian Sue DeGruchy Lee Delaney Sue Dempsey Bill Denham Penny Denniston Dave Derma nn Pam Dom Mark Tuttle (left) Steve Green (center) and Michelle Jeys (right) listen to Math Club Sponsor Mrs. Patience Fisher during an after-school meeting Underclassmen-105 Mary Dougherty Tammy Douglas Debbie Down Aaron Drake Tim Draper Brenda Duis Barb Dunkiau Heidi Dyas Cindy East Jenny Easterday Diane Eckery Alecia Edington Deanna Edwards Lisa Edwards John Ellis Kathy Ells Mary Enders Mike Ethridge Kim Eubanks Lynda Fagerberg Janice Fairfield David Faust Mary Fiedler Todd Fiedler Lisa Filbert Donna Finch Katie Fisher Mike Flanagin Sheryl Flinn Karol Fioyd Ann Fogerty Sandy Fogerty Leslie Forbes Brenda Frank Kerry Frerichs Cheri Frey Urn Hike wramggs Barb Dunkiau applied make-up In the All-School Play. Backstage workers have been called the unsung heroes of the Lincoln High School drama department While the cast receives applause and recognition, crews tend to hang back in the shadows, or the wings of the stage. This past year, backstage workers began to have new light shed on their efforts and hard work. During this year's All School Ray, “The Diary of Anne Frank, Drama Director Joan Lazarus along with the school administration expressed their appreciation of the crews. A special display of pictures of all the crew members and crew heads was set up, and an appreciation get-together was held, giving crews the opportunity to explain their work and give backstage tours. Being on an All School Play crew involved a lot of work. Set building crews met every day when construction of a set began. Students stayed as late as 1 a.m. building and finishing sets. Other crews demanding less time worked up to five or eight hours a day as the All School Play production neared. Crews such as costumes, lights, makeup, properties, public- ity, set construction, sound, and a newly-added set painting group, made up the backstage workers. Crew members developed close relation- ships working with each other. Costume co- crew head Louise Krantz said, “The best thing about being on a crew, I think, is getting to know people I've never met before. Perhaps the backstage worker's motto is, as Louise said, A play is not only what's on stage, but what’s backstage, too.” Caroline Tuttle prepares a prop.

Do you like competition? Do you like mathe- matical games and tricks or do you just need help studying for the PSAT or ACT? The Lincoln High Math Club, with advisors Mrs. Patience Fisher and Mr. Charles Frie- son were very active in all these and more during their first year at Lincoln High. Meetings were held every other Monday. Sometimes student speakers gave talks on ancient magic” numbers or tricks to make math easier. Guest speakers from the Uni- versity of Nebraska and other high schools entertained also. Sample college entrance exams were worked to prepare students for taking them. But mostly, Math Club practiced tech- niques for the annual Math Field Day held at Creighton University on February 23. Two teams of five, with at least one sophomore on each, participated on such events as: Mad Hatter, Leapfrog , and Chalk Talk.

I have to get up early again so I can put up my locker spirit signs before school. Spirit week is tiring sometimes. I should have gone to bed earlier instead of making those cookies that we're not supposed to bring anyway. But my big brother hates it when he never gets food. I know the guys always get excited when they get something to eat instead of crayon- made locker signs that the janitors tear down after school anyway. I should be like my other pepper friends who make door signs and lucky pennies and buy stuffed animals for their spirit guys that they all have crushes on. But the guy whose name I drew I don't even know. He's a senior and has a girl- friend already. I always get stuck with the taken ones. Maybe next year there'll be a bigger pep club and spirit week will be more exciting. I was so embar- rassed when I was the only fool wearing a toga on toga day. They all knew I was just a dumb sophomore. The best thing about spirit week, though, was when my spirit guy found out early who I was, he thanked me for my support. I guess most people never realize that little things like that are appreciated.

For some, beating the energy crisis meant riding a bike to school every day. Jun- ior Lynda Fagerberg said it’s faster than walking while sophomore Bennett Haller felt it was “cheaper than a carpool. Whatever the rea- sons were, most Lincoln High bikers have been biking to classes since junior high. You can see so much because you’re not con- fined,” said junior Anna Baker, you can look around. It’s not complicated or hard, you just steer and go.’ The main hassle, accord- ing to the bikers, was car drivers who didn’t respect them. Cars hate bikers. They think that if we have bike trails, all bikers should be on them. explained Lynda. Other problems included flat tires, stolen locks, and how to carry books. Most students carried a backpack to school, however, when Lynda had too many books to fit in it, she did her home- work at her locker after school. Bike-riding has many advantages. Besides being cheap and fast, junior Ian Lipsky said, It's a good exercise, and it’s good to know you’re not using gas, polluting, or making noise.

Although not much talking goes on at meetings, entertainment is high. If you enjoy chess, or are even mildly interested in learning or watching, this club is for you. Curious people are encouraged to observe. President Kyle Baker announced they met every Thursday at 3 o'clock wherever they didn't kick us out. Meetings were held in various classrooms, the writing lab, and media center. Inter-school tournaments were played using a ladder system where students competed with others at their same level. The club's best players were Dave Stewart and Ron Buskirk, both juniors. Another form of competition had every member with his own board all challenging sponsor Mr. Law- rence at once. He traveled from board to board, moving once each time until all games were over. Two years ago the club competed with Lincoln Pius X High School. This past year they attempted to play every Lincoln high school. Many members were also active in the Lincoln City Chess Club, where Mr. Lawrence claims he is champion. Said Kyle whoever is the top player there “really controls the city. The Lincoln High Chess Club offered a range of abilities, from beginners to serious players, involved in such programs as this.

With the new requirements, it is hoped stu- dents will have a better under- standing of government and meet the district's education goals better. All four high schools are going through the process of shifting gears , offering new classes to sophomores. Among the new classes offered are: health, modern history classes, communication skills, literature, and human behavior. The main reason for offering these classes is to insure all graduates of Lincoln Public Schools are exposed to current and relevent issues.

Teamwork is an important element necessary for success in athletics. Without teamwork, failure becomes status quo. To make a team complete it takes a combination of teamwork, unity, and spirit The above words by Lincoln High's new head football coach. Robert Starr, represented to him what it takes to have a successful season. The concept of unity in teamwork as well as a good attitude and spirit, sets the pace for a good job. according to Starr. In Lincoln High's 108-year history, teamwork has been the cornerstone for success. LHS can lay claim to more total championships than any other Nebraska high school. Recent years have shown the importance of team- work. Overall athletic success has not been as common at LHS. Red and Black fans have learned to understand defeat but never accept it Bill Zuspan. varsity baseball coach, says. Tearn spirit is one of the important ingredients in the makeup of a team. To succeed, a team needs an inner spirit, something that bonds them together. If one person on a team is excited and fired up for a big meet or game, everyone will be the same way. It is like a chain reaction; when one player starts feeling the spirit they all are moved. Athletes must be assertive and have mental vigor. This helps to make a team function better and it makes the athletes enjoy them- selves more. When one team follows this idea of team sprint, other schools and teams sit up and take notice of it The 1979-80 sports season found Lincoln athletes striving to regain the winning tradition. Teamwork and spirit played an important part in attaining this goal. Whether it was the football team battling back from a twelve point deficit against North Platte, or the volleyball team trying to win that important third set against Papillion. all LHS squads displayed the necessary characteristics of teamwork and spirit. This typ e of teamwork and spirit helped bring about the many victories that appeared on the scoreboards. A major part of a coach's job is teaching his or her players how to create the right teamwork among the team, states Mr. Aldie Johnson, varsity basketball coach. He feels that teamwork is essential for success. The importance of teamwork. according to Coach Johnson, is what athletics is all about The Links 1979-80 sports season displayed team- work and team spirit. In the words of Mr. William Pfeiff. It was a job well done. Athletics-131 f New coach brings “new life” The 1979 Varsity Football team ended the season with a 3-5-1 record under the direction of new head coach Bob Starr. Starr, previously at North Platte, combined his new ideas with assistant coach Harold Simpson's knowl- edge of the Links' football team to apply the Black and Red with the l-formation. This formation gave the Links new offensive life. In the opening game with Columbus, both teams battled back and forth in a resulting 0-0 deadlock. LHS' quarterback Bill Szalawiga was injured in the game and was out the rest of the season. The following week the Links took on North Platte. The Platters dominated the first half scoring 12 points. But the Links did not give up. With three seconds left in the first half Bill Tesch connected with Keith Harrison on a 17-yard scoring pass. The Links took the lead in the second half when Anietie (Jdofia passed to James Bade for 38 yards. The final score was 14-12. The Links then traveled to Scottsbluff returning home with a 24-7 victory. In the early part of the first quarter the Links scored a touchdown and went on to dominate the remainder of the game. In the next three games the Links took losses to Lincoln Northeast, Grand Island, and Lincoln Southeast. During the LNE game LHS showed their momentum by coming from a deficit of 0-14 to a 14-14 tie in the third quarter. However, mistakes caused a 14-24 loss. The Homecoming game was with Grand Island. Half- time remained scoreless and the Islanders went on to a 0-14 win. The game with Southeast resulted in what Coach Starr said was the Links' best game. The Knights scored on its opening drive and the Links, with quarterback Dale Nichols, came right back with a scoring drive of their own. Shortly after halftime the Links took a 14-13 lead but the Southeast offense was too much and the final score ended, 20-28. The next game was with Beatrice at Seacrest Field. A rainstorm had drenched the field prior to the game mak- ing it difficult to play. Lincoln High's Keith Harrison ran the only touchdown for seven yards. The Links next traveled to Fremont only to have an unpleasant experience. The Tigers' offense was tough and LHS mistakes contributed to a 7-16 loss. The final game of the season was with eventual state champion Lincoln East The Links only touchdown was a 63-yard interception runback by Dan Cary. The Spartans had a good offense and the game ended, 7-29. Coach Starr noted, “Overall, I was disappointed in the season, but there were times that I was proud of the team. Coach Starr pointed out that there were many fine players on the team. He named Rob DeBus, Brian Rettig, Craig Lemka, Todd Fiedler, Craig Mulligan and Anietie (Jdofia as the team's top players.

Reserves realize potential as team The 1979 reserves, under the direction of coaches Dave Gillespie and Tom Christie, encountered three dis- tinct phases before actually realizing their potential as a team. The first phase took place in the opening game against Westside where they felt unconfident as a team and took the loss, 6-14. Their next game with Southeast activated their physi- cal ability to play, but not their mental confidence in them selves and resulted in a 0-6 loss. The reserves finally put everything together against Northeast and blasted them with a 21 -0 victory. Coach Gillespie noted, The highlight of the season consisted of the reserve's ability to start realizing their potential as a team and the concept of what a team can do. The Links then dominated East in their best game, according to Gillespie, winning 15-8. The reserves came back again to beat Fremont, 14-8. The next game was a disappointment in that the team led the whole game against Southeast up until the last two minutes losing 6-14. The Links took another loss against East, playing well the first half before losing 7-24. The final game of the season was against Grand Island, but was cancelled due to weather conditions. The Links had several outstanding competitors including Brent Keller and Terri Roth at l-back. and Jeff Blackman at quarterback. Gillespie also praised Chuck Bodfield, Dave Ohm- berger and Mark Coleman for their efforts. The season ended with a 34 mark. LHS RESERVE RESULTS OPP 6 0.

This group learned this lesson well. We worked well and played well together. This comment from Coach Pappas illustrates the 1979 Sophomore football season well because their season went undefeated with a 6-0-1 mark. The other coaches for the sophomores were Coach Ray Henning and Student Coach Randy Kliment Coach Henning said, The secret to our success, based on unity, was everyone did their job as a team from the first player to the last” There was no doubt that the sophomores had an outstanding season. The more they played the more team pride existed. In the opening game against Millard, the defense played an important role. They blocked a punt and ran back an interception ending the game, 12-6. It wasn't until their next game against Ralston that the Links started talking about being undefeated. They won their confidence and the game, 19-13. The Links first city game was with Southeast. They played an exceptional game with a 60-yard punt return giving them a score of 12-8. In the Northeast game the defense held and the offense came through for a 7-0 win. The East High game was the last city game. The sophomores drove hard and became city champs. 14-6. A game with Westside resulted in a hard-hitting expe- rience. LHS only scored a touchdown but added a field goal as well to win 10-0. The last game of the season was against the Beatrice reserves. The game resulted in a 0-0 tie. The sophomores had many fine players who per- formed like a team should—with unity. Monte Mares. Dave Borchers, Mfon (Jmoren, Pat Broun, Doug Novack, Dave Fiala and Phil Down all were cited for their outstanding play. Golfers improve over previous season As the second season of girls golf came to an end. the team found it had improved over their first year. Although LHS didn't win any major meets, individual performances helped to enhance the quality of the team. The girls improved their scores con- siderably from last year, Coach Sally Roper said. Each girl had her good moments. she added. Roper felt the highlight of the year was a 243-271 dual meet win against Northeast. The Links also finished fifth out of seven teams in district competition beating Northeast and Omaha Northeast. But. along with the highlights there also were some problems. It's hard to compete with girls that play all year round. Roper said, referring to other high school golf programs in which the girls practice daily. Roper cited seniors Sara Gies and Ruth Boham as the top players. Juniors Pam Mcneese and Cindy Cas- sel will return next year. Senior Stephani Cords was the fifth girl to earn a varsity letter.

Teamwork holds spikers together Silvia Paeglitis shows great skill by setting up a perfect bump for her teammates. The girls varsity volleyball team began the season as the home team against Grand Island. The team consisted of nine seniors and three underclassmen. The opening game ended in a two-set LHS loss and provided an indication of the things to come as the Links suffered through a 1-15 season. The Links managed to win their third game of the season in a 2-1 battle against Westside. But from then on it was a strug- gle to the bitter end. Head Coach Joyce Johnson said that it was a disappointing season for both the team and herself. But she added that the team never gave up their struggle. They could have chosen to quit, but they stayed in there and fought, especially at districts, stated Johnson. Although the season proved to be a disappointing one for the team, individ- uals made great efforts and played excellent in certain games. Suzy Shepard played a strong serving game at districts. Joni Longen had her best game at the Cornhusker Classic in both spiking and serving. Anne Draper also had excellent games. No new techniques were put into use this year. Coach Johnson stuck to the fundamentals and tried to strengthen them. Basic skills were used during the season, trying to improve the defense as well as individuals. Most of the players on the team felt that the attitude of their teammates was a posi- tive and friendly one. They all felt disap- pointed about the season, but everyone gave it their best, and stayed friends through the season. They did other things than simply play volleyball together. They had a pregame breakfast for the reserve and varsity vol- leyball players. They griddled pancakes in Mrs. Johnson's office and fried bacon and eggs in the hall. But breakfast came to an end when fuses were blown. Another thing they did was meditate before a game. This gave the team time to think about the game and what was ahead. The varsity volleyball ended their sea- son on a positive note. They gave 200 per cent while playing their match against Southeast at districts. They lost their first set by a fraction, but came back to win their second set. In the third set the Links forced the Knights to play extra time in order for them to win. The chant of the final game still rings in everyone’s ears: “Varsity to the Max. Athletics-139 V-BaDD ’TO Backing up the varsity, the Lincoln High Reserve Volleyball Team posted a 6-8 season. The highlight of the season, according to Coach Cheryl Henry, was a 2-1 win over highly regarded Northeast. Their strength was in their defensive playing ability, but their weaknesses were the lack of experience as well as their attack, she said. Team member. Anna Baker, agreed with Coach Henry on what their strengths and weaknesses were, but added, our, on the net' play was weak, but we did have good control over the ball. Another team member, Sandy Fogerty, stated, we all wanted to win and everyone had a good attitude about each game, but we just didn't have enough experience. The team was led by two juniors. Mary Splichal and Anna Baker, and two sopho- mores, Christi Pfeifer and Tami Lutzi. The attitude of the team was positive and good. Everyone stuck together, said Anna.

The harriers proved to be tough in some meets though but could not pull out the big victory. The most impressive showing for the Links was a seventh-place finish at the Millard Invitational where 10 teams participated. Towards the end of the season we began to put more effort into our running which helped us move up on opponents.” Coach Scott commented. An inexperienced team also seemed to be a problem for the harriers. For many years now the Links have been plagued with young teams. This years team was no exception as it consisted of only three returning letterwinners out of 13 members. Since we were young. Coach Scott said, we didn't really work as hard as we should have. At the beginning of the sea- son we had to correct some of the prob- lems that should already have been taken care of during the summer. The harriers finished the season on a sweet note capturing a sixth place show- ing in districts. Coach Scott cited Bobby Schoonover and Paul Johnson for their performances. We were very young and hope to be a promising team next year, Coach Scott stated. CROSS COUNTRY—Row 1: Susan Degrutchy. Steve Johnson. SeanMcLoughlin. Bobby Schoonover. Jeff Beechtolt.

The 15-member team compiled a 1-10 dual meet record under the direction of Coach Gene Cotter. Their lone victory was an 86-84 win over Lincoln Northeast. The Links swam to a fourth-place finish in the Lincoln Relays, a 12th-place finish in the Nebraska Invitational, a sixth-place fin- ish in the Trans-Nebraska meet, and were unable to score in the state meet We didn't have the experience that was needed to place well in meets. com- mented Coach Cotter.

The team was young because only two of 1978's six letter winners were returning lettermen. The team was inexperienced because they needed more expertise in tourna- ment play. Coach Pat Maloy said. However, the team did place fourth in the Trans-Nebraska Tournament at Woods Park, making the year a little brighter. Another team problem responsible for the final season results was the lack of the desire to win Maloy said. Although the team was young, it didn’t hurt their team doubles. Coach Maloy said. The team doubles of Jon Fuenning and Larry Pospisil were the strong point for the year.' The doubles helped the team finish 15th at the State Tournament in Omaha. The Reserves saw a more successful year than the Varsity. They started out a good season by beat- ing East and Southeast and posed as an undefeated team for two matches. By the end of the season however, the Reserves had forfeited matches during the second East game and the Lincoln Public Schools Reserve Championship because of a lack of players.

And the Links gymnasts did just that, placing eighth overall. Coach Jeurink felt that their strengths this year were on the vault and the floor exercise. The pommel horse was the team weakness. There are a lot of people that could do the pommel horse and do it well if they would just go out, stated Jeurink. The highpoint of the season was plac- ing 3rd at the Grand Island Invitational. October 20. They placed close behind two of the best teams in the state. Plus they beat higher ranked North Platte. Jeurink felt the top competitors were Dave Miller. Gayle Adams, Jeff Horacek and Bruce Crowther. Dave, who worked floor exercise, placed in every meet. Gayle and Jeff both did excellent on vaulting, and Bruce was the team s all around competitor. Coach Jeurink felt the team's attitude was a positive and hopeful one through- out the year. Everyone could have worked harder. said Jeurink, but then I’m never satis- fied. Then he added, they are a much better working team and are stronger than years past. He felt that he had a team of entertain- ers when it came to the van trips. He commented that they were a good bunch of guys. Accomplishing goals is one thing every- one hopes for and this year's gymnastics team didn't fall one step short of it They set out to do something, encountered obstacles, but finally accomplished their goal. gymnastics RESULTS LHS OPP 10th Art Harris Invite 112.75 O.

Links record best season since ’59 For three weeks during the boys varsity basketball season, the LHS student body was proud to be able to display the symbol “ 1 in describing their boys basketball team. While the team was knocking off opponent after opponent, the feeling of being the best was apparent throughout Lincoln High School. The Number One ranking was a result of the team's December and early January play, as the Links roared to nine straight wins including victories over eventual state champion Omaha Westside and runner-up Lincoln East “It was a really good feeling to be able to say ‘We're Number One, ' said three-year letterman Bill Szalawiga. The school support and spirit seemed to double and everyone was really excited about being the best After beating Lincoln Northeast for their ninth straight win on January 18, the game of the year loomed the following week as LHS prepared to take on then second- ranked Lincoln East at Pershing Auditorium. More than 5,000 basketball fans filled the auditorium to watch the Links and Spartans do battle. LHS had already defeated East 62-54, in the Kearney Holiday Tournament but this time proved different With the score tied early in the fourth quarter, the Spartans caught fire and scored a 72-59 win. The following night the Links regrouped to face defending state champion and then Number Four ranked Omaha Northwest at Johnson Gym. The Links overcame a 47-point scoring spree by Northwest sensation Ron Kel- log to claim a 72-68 overtime win. Three straight losses then followed as Omaha South, Papillion and Lincoln Southeast all claimed victories over LHS, before the Links closed the season with wins over Hastings, Omaha Tech and Grand Island.

But the season did end the next week when Southeast handed the Links a disappointing 5845 loss in the first round of the state tournament. The team's final record of 14-6 was the best record an LHS basketball team has posted since the undefeated and state championship team of 1959. The 198Q team shot a very impressive 48 per cent from the field, another statistic that rated them as one of the top shooting teams in Lincoln High basketball history. We had a good balance of scoring between our starters, said 21 -year Head Coach Aldie Johnson. Each of the starters has a high point game, something that is not accomplished very often. When our offense moved we couldn't be beat Szal- awiga. But towards the end of the season our defense started to become lazy and whenever the offense did break down the game turned into a one-on-one competition with every man playing for himself. Coach Johnson was pleased the team was able to qualify for the state tournament Even though it was my eighth visit to the state tour- nament I was just as thrilled this time as I was the first time I went to state as a coach, he said. It's a good feeling to go and I was really happy for the kids since none of them had played in a state tournament before. Several Links gained honors at the conclusion of the year. Senior center Derrick Hull was named to the first team All-City squad. Szalawiga and junior John Martzke were both selected as members of the All-City Second Team. One of the things I enjoy most about coaching, said Coach Johnson, is to take young men from different backgrounds and mold them together into a team con- cept My greatest pleasure in coaching is to see the kids LINK together to form a chain and not to ever break those bonds.

Keserves tmish 1Z-4; Sophs topple Rockets Bill Szalawiga John Matzke For the 1979-80 Lincoln High Reserve Basketball Team to compile a 12-4 record, the second best record recorded by a Links' reserve team in the last 20 years, it took a lot of hard work and dedication. All 15 members of the team had an excellent attitude in both games and prac tice, first year Reserve Coach Bill Zuspan said. They placed the importance of the word “WE above the word “I”, which helped them become a more unified ball club. Even though we lacked the height, we made up for it with our excellent attitude toward each other.'' While the Links were building on to their impressive 12-4 record, they were also achieving goals set at the beginning of the season. One such goal, and probably the most important, was to prepare themselves for future roles in a varsity basketball position. Some other goals that they achieved were to finish the season with a record above 500 per cent and also to learn good sportsmanship. I wanted to make basketball fun to the kids and not something you dread to do and I feel the team had a great time this year, said Coach Zuspan. Coach Zuspan felt that the Links' seven- game winning streak in the middle of the season was the high point of the year.

The sophomore program is not con- ceived around their record. said Coach Jake Kirkland. Instead, the sixth-year sopho- more coach said, “The primary purpose of the program is to prepare players for future basketball competition. The sophomores began the year with two victories, beating the Adams reserves 73-50, and Beatrice 49-44. The Links then lost seven straight games before demolishing Northeast 76-46, a game that Coach Kirkland felt was the high point of the year. Even though the sophomores dropped the last two games of the season to city rivals East and Southeast Coach Kirkland felt the team played extremely well. The team played very good against East and Southeast, but we just didn't have enough to win, he said. We seemed to lack the floor leadership and mental concentration that we needed to win, stated Coack Kirkland. He added, We didn't play consistently either. It was as if in some games we did everything right while in others we did everything wrong. The team had a certain desire to try, earn- ing everything they received, Kirkland said. He cited Dave Fiala, Dave Edwards and Jeff Schnieder for being very promising players.

Gymnasts gain valuable experience Experience was probably the Links' most important thing the 1980 girls gym- nastics team learned. This young team, consisting of 10 sophomores, five juniors and only one senior, learned a lot through the course of the season. They began to better understand what competitive gym- nastics was like and to be a really good team. Gary Jeurink, head coach, pointed out senior Anne Draper, juniors Faith Miller and Lisa Scott, and sophomores Sara Thomassen and Leslie Hackenberg. as the team's outstanding members. Gary felt team strengths this year were on the vault and the uneven bars. We've always been a good vaulting team.” Coach Jeurink said, even when we've started with rookies. Last year our weakness was on the uneven bars.” added Jeurink, strangely enough that was something we were quite strong on this year ” The balance beam seemed to be a slight weakness for Lincoln High in terms of consistency. “There was only one meet that we did real well in. and that was our meet against Lincoln Southeast,” stated Coach Jeurink. Everyone really got along well, and I think we’ll be able to do even better next year, said Faith. We hope to be a much stronger team in terms of experience and depth and I really believe that we'll be able to do just that. We hope to be a team to watch out for next year, added Faith.

The meet with East High, stated Var- sity Wrestling Coach Harold Simpson, was the highlight of the season. We did just a little bit better that night and we got by them, he added. Although the team seemed to be improving, the next four duals tried their experience and ability. Kearney, Northeast Fremont and Has- tings all managed major wins against the LHS wrestlers. They ended their dual meet season with a win against Omaha South. Taking eighth at Districts and qualifying two for State was the conclusion of the season for the Lincoln High Varsity Wres- tling Team. Greg Phillips qualified for State in the 98-pound category and Bruce Crowther at 138 pounds. Coach Simpson commended Bill Mil- ler, 132 pounds, and Jeff Gaines, heavy- weight division, for their efforts and com- petitiveness through the year. Simpson also pointed out that Jeff was only beaten four times during the course of the year. This year's team seemed to be propor- tioned out fairly well, although the middle and heavyweights seemed to be Lincoln High's strength. The lower weight division was quite young and inexperienced and had to learn competitive wrestling, accord- ing to Simpson. By simply looking at the scores one wouldn't know it but the team improved as the year went on. They were a very young team and lacked the varsity expe- rience needed to be top contenders. “I wish we could have won more meets, said varsity wrestler Bruce Crowther, but I really enjoyed the other wrestlers. I had only hoped the team could have done better as a whole. Bruce felt that everybody was willing to work very hard and that each and every one showed a lot of determination. He said everybody was easy going and really got along well. The younger kids should be quite good in the near future, stated Simpson, and there will be six returning letter winners to help out next year's team.

Reserves: A Building Year A good phrase for Lincoln High's Reserve Wrestling Squad would be hot and cold as the team went back and forth between winning and losing, ending the season with a first-place finish in the LHS Tourney. Coach Thomas Christie sighted the highlight of the season as the team's win in the Lincoln Public Schools City Championship. Coach Christie felt that the juniors added much needed experience to the team. He thought juniors Randy Wymore and Randy Perez were a helpful asset to the team and stated that Mike Jeys was a promising sophomore. The reserves added to their season a new meet, by participating in their first out of town tournament the Pender Tourney. The guys really thought that they would have no problems winning the tournament'' stated Christie. They felt that the Class B, C, and D teams wouldn't be very good, but they thought wrong and found out that small towns know how to wrestle and wrestle well. Reserve wrestler, Randy Perez, enjoyed going to more meets. He thought that the upper weights seemed to have a little more experience and were a little stronger. The best part of the year was when we took first at the city tournament, said Perez. It really made the season worthwhile. The more experience the team got the more they found their techniques, said Christie. They became more competitive an better wrestlers.

Athletics-155 Girls capture spirit, state title for LHS The 1980 girls basketball team accomplished much in their quest to win the girls high school state basketball championship. It was a season to be remembered, bring- ing confidence back in LHS' sports and lifting school spirit to its maximum. The team was headed by Coach Bill Myers. The coaching and the talent of each and every member of the team made it all happen. Overall, the Links compiled an outstanding record of 20-3. Coach Myers implied that the team acquired three things that helped enable the success. Myers explained, Our teamwork progressed be- cause of the depth we had. Our speed enabled us to drive quickly with good shooting ability. Lincoln High had the best shooting record in Class A, hitting 46 per cent of its field goals. The Links never really had a bad game. They started the season out well getting mentally ready for each game. When they did lose a game they were always able to pick it up again. Lisa Phipps was one of the most outstanding ball players in the state. She was the Links' leading scorer and rebounder with 15 points and 10 rebounds per game. She also was the leading player with 88 steals all season. Lori Trejo became the team's second leading rebounder and scorer having six rebounds and 11 points per game. Myers credited Robin Danner as the team's offensive motivater. She was the second leader in steals and assists and could really move with the ball. Sabrina Weaver, a sophomore, was the player that made things happen. She led in assists and headed an effective full court press. Mary Splichal injured her knee in the second game of the season. She was a starting guard as a sophomore and will look forward to next year. Rhonda Becker played well in the state games as she gained confidence. She also was the team's third leading re bounder. There were three other seniors that played extremely well: Pam McWilliams, Carla Frauen, and Carol Dockter. All displayed much leadership, according to Myers. Carla Galois, Anna Baker, and Tracy Anderson worked very hard and pushed the team in practice to motivate the team to success. Myers concluded, There was a lot of support from the student body and faculty that helped arouse Lincoln High spirit There will be eight returning letterwinners and we look forward in trying to defend the state championship title next year.

This team consisted of unique individuals; each contributing in their own way to make this a well-bal- anced team, stated Reserve Girls Basketball Coach Kraig Anderson about his team's 114 record. The second-year coach also described the 1980 girls reserve basketball team as one of a total team effort In the first part of the season the Links progressed productively on offense, hardly giving their opponents a chance to put points on the board. Competition didn't arrive until the sixth game of the season when North Platte came out on top, 25-22. Frustration hit the Links but not long as they came back to win their next five games against top competitive teams. The last games that were played were rough and rugged. This was proved by losing by very close margins and winning one out of four. The reserves had a well-rounded team. Coach Ander- son added, There wasn't one set player who made it all happen, but each and every member of the team. GIRLS' RESERVE BASKETBALL-Row I: Alcoa Edington.

This is illustrated by the tankers supreme effort in obtaining 5th in the state meet Coach Gene Cotter explains, We had a very good season. We won the dual meets and at the end of the season felt good as a team as individual success progressed. We also felt we should compete on a higher level. LHS had a well developed diving team consisting of Jim Gilmore, John Cotter, and Jeff Blackman. The divers scored very high at the state meet There were many fine consistent swimmers. Aaron Drake finished second in the 200 meter individual medley along with other good results at state. Kenny Hammer also did a fine job finishing 7th in the backstroke at state.

Concentration leads to team success In March, head Boys Varsity Baseball Coach Bill Zuspan said the key to success for the 1980 baseball squad would be teamwork and concentration. There are a lot of different personalities on the team and they must act as a team and not as individuals. Zuspan said. The players must concentrate on pre- paring to win. They all have determination to win. but they must prepare to win, added Zuspan. The Links had six returning letter- winners to face what Zuspan said would be a tough 16-game schedule. These lettermen included: Eric Bishop, third base; Dale Nichols, catcher; Gerald Bower, third base; Craig Mulligan, outfield; Reggie Peak, pitcher and short stop; and Greg Kohout, outfield. According to Zuspan. team speed, a solid infield, and a good defense would have to compensate for what he feels will be a general lack of playing experience. Even with six returning lettermen, we lack playing experience. Zuspan said. “You must play a lot to be good at base- ball and playing summer ball helps, he stated referring to the American Legion Summer Program. Zuspan stated that 75 per cent of base ball is pitching and this year Lincoln High had an excellent pitching staff. You need the depth and good pitchers to help make a good team and we had just that, said Zuspan. A question one may wonder about is with only six returning letterwinners, could the new comers fill in where last years' seniors left off? To Coach Zuspan. though, this was the least of his worries. He felt that this years' new varsity players filled in the empty positions just as well if not better than last years' players. Although the team was strong, Zuspan thought the returning letterwinners were the nucleus of the team. He said the let- termen had a little advantage on the oth- ers since they had played more varsity ball. Zuspan said this years' team was poten- tially very successful, but realistically they had to prepare. You have to be a scrappy team and not a dying duck. You have to go out there to give it your all, Zuspan said.

Scott Little, Dan Bousek and Mickie McGuire led the team. Scott, at short stop, Dan playing second base and Mickie, a pitcher, helped the team through their hard season. They have a lot of endurance and they loved to steal bases, stated Reserve Coach Tom Pappas. We weren't hitting the ball as well as we would have liked to, but that comes with a lot more practice, added Pappas. Papillion and Northeast were two teams the squad had to watch out for this year. Coach Pappas said that Northeast always has a good team and this year was no exception. The team progressed through the year, grew stronger and gained valuable expe- rience that will help them to be better play- ers in the near future.

New track benefits LHS cindermen As Coach Harold Scott entered his twenty-seventh year at LHS as head boys' track coach he did so in unfamiliar sur- roundings. Gone were the concrete walls of the Oval and the old weather beaten six-lane cinder track No longer would Coach Harold Scott have to worry about being able to run on a track that flooded every time it rained more than a trace. Instead, Coach Scott’s runners were found practicing on a new eight-lane all- weather resolite track We will be able to use the track more this year than the last few years which should help a little, said Coach Scott The team also experienced something different in its first meet of the season. The meet was the first indoor meet that the Links had ever participated in. Coach Scott felt that 1980 squad would have good individual performers but that depth was the weaknes of the team. “For a team to be good and competitive it must not only have individual strengths but also depth, said Coach Scott Out of the forty cindermen that partici- pated, only twelve were returning letter- winners. Of these twelve. Coach Scott cited Jim Bade, sprints; Jon Fuenning, hurdles; Gail Adams, long and high jump; Steve Loos, middle distances; and Rob DeBus, shot, for being promising members. Since there isn’t a big number of kids out they don't really have to push them- selves to make the team. This means they're not going to be equal to other teams that have larger turn outs, said Coach Scott Jod Thornton takes a break during a hard practice Above: Members of the team warm up before another practice Below: Rob Debus shows his grace and finesse while putting the shot BOYS VARSITY TRACK DATE OPP March 21 NWCJ Indoor March 29 Millard Relays April 3 Lincoln Relays April 8 York April 11 Westside Invit April 14 Beatrice April 18 Fremont Invit April 25 Orangeman Invit May 3 Trans-Nebraska May 9 LPS Tournament May 16 District May 23-24 State BOYS RESERVE TRACK DATE OPP April 17 LE-LNE-LSE May 1 LE-LNE-LSE May 15 LE-LNE-LSE May 20 LPS Non-Qual Meet Brad Pohlman jogs to build his wind for an upcoming meet t Above: Jim Bade spnnts to another Links vic- tory Right Coach Harold Scott keeps time.

The team was led by returning letter- winners Linda Dickey, Jackie McEwen, Deb Schmalken, Lisa Edwards, Darlene Berks, Jerry Kuntz and Lisa Venhaus. Coach Henrichs also felt that juniors Sheri Davidson, Judie Davidson, and Rhonda Roseburg were great assests to the team. His strong sophomores consisted of Michelle Maxey, Charlette Harrington, Rhonda Claypool, Patty McEwen, Dorethy Brown, Robin Scaggs, Carleen Draper and Joy Bradley.

These performers presented the leadership needed to have a very fine team. Coach Cheryl Henry said, Early season conditioning and experience led the team to success. The Links did have the opportunity to start outside practices earlier then in the past years allowing more time to condition. She also felt that the members of the team were well experienced due to outside school tennis activities. Because of experience Coach Henry hopes for a successful team next year.

Staff 174 First semester student teacher 1 eri Bigelow explains the fine points ol news writing to the Beginning Journalism class. Mrs Mary Beth I ehrnanowsky Bakewell and Mr. Dick Patter son show that they can have a lighter side as well as serving as counselors for the students. 9 Staff is dedicated If there is anything that Lincoln High School can be proud of, it's the staff. LHS has some of the best teachers in Nebraska. They are professional educators who try to give students some workable knowledge that will help them, whether they go on to higher education or not Many faculty members give countless extra hours to students by staying after school just to help with something that is especially hard or by sponsoring a club. Some students feel that teachers are out to get them, but in reality they are just doing their job. Everyone knows that, like all other occupations, not all teachers are the greatest but Lincoln High seems to have more than their share of the good ones. The teachers are more than the people whom the students gripe about—they are at times friends, people to respect, and, believe it or not, real people with real emotions like the rest of us. There are many different reasons why ordinary peo- ple choose to work with kids on the high school level. Some do it for the money in order to supplement another family member s income, while others do it because they like the kids. They feel that they can relate more to an older student, and have more fun with them as well as make a lasting impression. Teaching has its drawbacks, too. Many have said that the quality of education is rapidly decreasing. Illiteracy seems to have grown, but LHS' teachers are very optimistic about the future. Many things are being done so that students are equipped with the knowledge that they will need. One of the major step� that have been taken is the new set of graduation requirements. The 1979-80 sophomores will have to take reading tests and if their scores are low, they have to take certain classes until their reading level has been increased. Stu- dents will also have to take more and different varieties of English and social studies. They will have a chance to test out of a new health course and the requirements for mathematics. These new requirements have been designed for the students to have an increased variety of knowledge at their disposal, and to make sure that all students can read. Through the graduation requirements and their own personal dedication, the Lincoln High School faculty is working hard to give LHS' students a quality education. They want all Lincoln High students to have a chance to succeed in whatever they do. Staff 175 Mr. Nelson: “Do you have a minute?” Many students only see Mr. Sanford Nelson, Lincoln High School principal, at assemblies or in the lunch room. This might cause many to wonder just what does he do? To answer the question, let s take a look at A day in the life of a principal. When you enter Mr. Nelson's office you see a desk cluttered just enough to think that he knows where everything is and a shelf filled with books and articles. Mr. Nelson's secretary, Mrs. LaVern Rhoades, has some difficulty having to come down from the main office but with the new remodeling that will change. She brings in his messages and his mail. When Mr. Nelson gets back from his 7 a.m. meeting at 8:15 he checks his calendar and plans his day. He makes the neces- sary phone calls then goes through the mail. He sends out some letters but throws the advertisements away. Some students come in at 830 a.m. to speak with Mr. Nelson about a proposition their club has for a fund raiser. He gets a phone call in the middle, which is not uncommon. He makes arrangements with them to check out the different aspects of the problem and to meet again. A teacher then enters who wants to change the scheduled meeting time for a conference with a student’s parents. Mr. Nelson calls to arrange it. Mr. Nelson then makes several calls to finish up the previous day's business. Some students come in at 10 a.m. to explain about a class project of taking an opinion poll. He offers alternatives to the students and agrees to speak to their class at a later time. With the remodeling and renovation going on in the school. Mr. Nelson has to speak with the director in charge of the project every day and this day they had to deal with the selection of paint for some rooms. One thing that a person wouldn’t think a principal would have to do would be deal- ing with business people trying to get an LHS account But. Mr. Nelson had to speak with the Coca-Cola representative and also those from department stores and towel companies. About noon Mr. Nelson had to write some letters to speakers who will be at the LHS Community Council meeting to inform them of the proceedings. He then wrote a college scholarship recommendation letter for a student At the same time another student came in to clear up a problem with his counselor. And then comes lunch at 1230 p.m. All that work was before that time. After lunch he had many other meetings until every- thing was finished. Many times Mr. Nelson has meetings during the week nights. There are always people looking for him and people who need help with something and he always does his best to do what he can. Mr. Nelson's job is far from just speak- ing at assemblies and serving lunch duty. As principal. Mr. Nelson often has to help out with the supervis on of the lunch room. As principal. Mr Sanford Nelson usually gets to preside over school meet- ings and assemblies.

A club has to have a member of the faculty present for it to be legal. The club sponsors put in a lot of extra time but it also is fun for them. Ms. Kathy Brauer is the sponsor of the Lincoln High International Club. In her second year of sponsoring the club, she finds it going along quite well. She is trying to get more foreign students involved. She feels the primary pur- pose for the club is educational and to bring kids of different cultures together. As a coach, Mrs. Cheryl Henry was a good choice to sponsor the Girls L-club. Two years ago she was asked to sponsor but doesn't find it that hard. She said she has had a very good set of officers that did most of the work organizing candy sales, car washes, dances and many other things. The only other thing Mrs. Henry would change is finding more time for the meetings. Two years ago Mrs. Sally Roper, math teacher, took over the pep club. It was much different from when she was in school because it is made up of a different group. But. she likes it very much and finds the hardest job is getting organized. She became involved because she likes sports and the kids. Top: Math teacher Mrs Sally Roper Above left Mrs Cheryl Henry coaches girls reserve volleyball and girls tennis.

Mr. Buford Grosscup, social studies teacher is a crop hail adjuster in the summer. He has worked for State Farm Insurance for the past 12 years after quitting as the director for the boys city baseball program. He goes out and assesses the hail damage done to crops. He enjoys his job because of the outdoors work. Another person who enjoys the summer out- doors is Ms. Joan Lazarus, drama instructor. She has spent the last two summers at Camp Newfound in Maine. It's a girls camp and she taught drama where they put on an all-camp production where the emphasis was on partici- pation not skill. Ms. Lazarus loved doing it so near the beautiful Maine scenery. Mr. Jean Henrichs was not near the beautiful countryside but he was busy working in his bus- iness of selling, installing and servicing swim- ming pools. He and four other teachers plus their children sell 10-12 pools a summer. They have done it for the last six summers and have found the people who buy pools are not just rich but are very nice family types. He says it’s not that hard as only common sense is required.

Many teachers do very interesting things with their spare time. Miss Lydia Lekai, business depart- ment chairperson, has spent a lot of time traveling. Her first trip was when she went to Colorado with her par- ents. Since then she has visited 65 countries and in one summer she went to 22 countries on a trip around the world. When she is in another country, she makes it a point to see everything she possibly can. She usually visits a school and likes to mingle with the native children. Her favorite places are Switzerland, the South Pacific Islands, and New Zealand. Mr. Melvin Simpson, science teacher, also has been around but his hobby is not traveling. He likes airplanes. When Mr. Simpson was a senior in high school the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor so he became interested in flight training. In 1944 he gradu- ated from the navigation school and was a navigator on a B-29 until the end of the war. The plane's name was the Snugglebunny 32 and he has a model of it in his school room. A more nature related hobby is one that Mr. Pat Maloy. English teacher, shares with many people. He back- packs with two or three other people and they go to Yellowstone or Glacier Park and follow the trails on two to 10-day trips. He first started hiking when he was growing up in North Dakota but didn't really start serious backpacking until about 10 years ago. He uses such equipment as some good strong shoes, a sleeping bag and the pack itself. Mr. Maloy says that he likes to get outside and that one should always get out of the car if you want to see anything worthwhile.

This phrase has often been heard coming from high school students anxious to graduate from LHS. But. some students later come back to teach at their alma mater. One is Ms. Becky Roux, science teach- er. Ms. Roux says there are some differ- ences between when she was a senior in 1962 and today. She said the school is much more structured and there is more freedom for the students to make deci- sions. No one ever thought of skipping then and very few students had jobs dur- ing the year. she said. According to Ms. Roux, there used to be a student lounge and snack bar in an area of what is now the Media Center. She remembers students would even come to school early to dance to the juke box and sit in the booths and have a lot of fun. On the floor of the lounge there was a sacred L that no one was allowed to step on. It was a big thing to see if a student from another school would break the rule. she said. Ms. Roux was very active while in high school as were many of the other LHS grad-teachers.

Perhaps having a father that is a teacher made her decide that was what she wanted to be but she said she wouldn’t want her dad as a teacher. She doesn't feel that it would work and they both -like the security that they have now. One girl that does have a class with her father is Bobbie Fallstead. Her dad is Mr. Ray Fallstead and she took a gymnastics class under him this year. She said that the course was more difficult than a class with a regular teacher because she couldn't get away with as much. Her dad also knows what Bobbie can and can't do. Swim coach Mr. Gene Cotter had his son John, a LHS junior, start swimming when he was very small but he now prefers to dive. Some day he might want to even coach diving. There are several other parent offspring pairs in this school but it doesn’t seem to bother anyone. In school, they’re just like any other student except for the fact that they see their parents a bit more often. Most kids see their parents before and after school, but some students at LHS might run into them in the hall. Those particular parents happen to teach at the school where their son or daughter attends.

Well you have prob- ably written something similar to these when signing your classmate's yearbook. It is an automatic reaction to sign or have people sign your yearbook. Of course, only after you have had a chance to look up the pages which your picture appears on. Some people seem to go to an extreme when signing yearbooks. They think they must have everyone they can possi- bly get sign their annual. Then they can compare with their peers and find out who is the most popular by how many signatures they have, even if half of the signatures are people they have barely said two words to all year. Excuse me, would you like to sign my yearbook. Even though the only time I ever talked to you was when you stepped on my foot It can be very embarrassing if someone asks you to sign their yearbook and you can’t remember their name. To make matters worse, you might even be the first one to sign the book. A Abdullah. Khadijah 177. 178 Abdullah. Rashidah 24. 115 Abebe. Mary 62 Abebe. Michad 115 Achtemeier. Lisa 115 Acklie.

This seemed to be one of the techniques used by students to publicize their social gatherings. Parties were a good way for students to socialize outside of school. Although there were alcoholic beverages available, this was not the only factor which would draw students to attend parties. It gave students a chance to associate with people they would not ordinarily talk with in school. Then the only problem was trying to find the house that was five miles west of “O street, one block past the second flashing light, left of the cemetery and one quarter mile south of the grain elevators. Parties were a popular form of socializing among high school students Johnson. Renee 108 Johnson. Steven 39. 108. 142. 150 Johnson. Susan 121 Johnson. Troy 76 Kohlman.

Robert 82 iii odd odd @it Foam Sitting cooped up in a classroom on that first sunny day after a long hard winter, stu- dents anxiously await the freedom summer provides. Summer offers a variety of activities for just about any type of person. For the money hungry ambitious students, a full time job occupies much of their time. The athletic students find enjoyment from the many sports and organized leagues during the summer. Then, of course, there are students who wish to further their education by enrolling in summer classes. For the bathing beauty, summertime is the perfect chance to get that great tan everyone wants. Some prefer to take a dip in the pool, while getting tanned at the same time. Others may decide to lay out in the privacy of their own back yard. Traveling is very popular during the sum- mer. However, those traditional family vaca- tions may be cut short because of the rising gas prices. With the many activities going on during the summer, some people choose to leisurely spend their time laying around the house watching TV or sleeping. Aontero, Johnny 109 Moody. Jane 182 Moon.

And March at Lincoln High School was no different March roared into Lincoln High School in the form of the 1980 Girls State Basketball Tournament and the storm did not abate until the following week with the conclusion of the boys state basketball playoffs. March 6 and 7 found the LHS hallways empty as school was dismissed early both days to allow the student body and faculty to cheer on the girls in state play at Pershing Auditorium. Each morning long lines would form outside the main office areas as students waited patiently to buy a tourney ticket, and ensure their dismissal from classes. The girls' team was so successful that they earned themselves a ticket into the state finals and an eventual state championship trophy. The boys' team wasn't as fortunate in their tourna- ment play, losing to Southeast in an early morning game. But nevertheless, the team kept basketball excitement at LHS in high gear for another week, following the girls triumph. Lincoln High School was the only Lincoln school to qualify a team for both the girls’ and boys’ tournaments. Students waited patiently to buy their tournament tickets. (Jdofia.

As normal procedure goes, Mr. Pfeiff, then vice-prin- cipal, is heard on sound announcements reporting the daily bulletin. He expresses extreme pleasure in announc- ing that Lincoln High has completed another “Job Well Done. As he speaks of events coming up in the future, he uses the phrase “Let's Go Links, which signifies that if we put forth our best effort we can get the job done. These memories have a very special meaning as an essential asset to Lincoln High. Perhaps to those who knew Mr. Pfeiff and the phrase A Job Well Done, this takes on an even deeper meaning. Our school displays pride with every event which we participate in. The general feeling is that we will try our hardest in whatever we do in hopes that it will turn out for the best When the LINKS staff chose our theme, we tried to think about what A Job Well Done meant to us and to the school. It seemed unanimous that Mr. Pfeiff was the root of the actual meaning. He introduced the phrase upon enter- ing Lincoln High and it has carried on through the years. It is almost certain that the phrase will go on to have the same special meaning it has had in the past. Drama participants have left their mark signifying A Job Well Done The trophy cases display the outstanding accomplishments in various sport events. Job Well Done-220 LHS spirit encourages achievement Putting forth an effort, even when you are defeated, is one aspect of a job well done. Job Well Done-221 Distinguished Alumni Return This year was the beginning of an annual tradition which seemed to have an inspiring effect on many students. In May of 1979 letters were sent out to 12 distin- guished alumni, who were recognized for their outstand- ing acheivements in their careers. The letter requested them to attend a Distinguished Alumni Day which was held on October 5,1979. Out of the 12 notified, nine were able to attend the day-long celebration and the football game that night. The three alumni not able to come were: Dick Cavett, who had conflicts in his taping schedule; Emmanuel Wishnow, who was on a trip to Europe and Dr. Mary Jo Henn, who was ill. Other than this there were no complications setting up a convenient date to have the awards day. The nine who attended were: Paul Amen, a graduate of 1934, who is the director of the Nebraska Department of Banking and Finance: Ted Gunderson, a 1946 graduate, who retired in March 1979 as Senior Special Agent in Charge, FBI, Los Angeles Field Division: State Senator Shirley Marsh from the class of 1943: Ralph Beechner, 1926, who is a retired educator from the Lincoln Public Schools; Dr. Robert G. Voltz, class of 1960. now a profes- sor of Surgery at the University of Arizona; President of the Lincoln City Council, John Robinson from the class of 1961; Herman Rohrig, 1936, who is the supervisor of the Big Ten Athletic Officials; Edwin Faulkner, 1937, Chair- man of the Board of Woodmen Accident and Life Com- pany; and Barbara Lautzenheiser, class of '56, presently vice-president of Bankers Life of Nebraska. The idea of honoring distinguished alumni was for- mulated by Vice Principal Dr. Charles Jones, in September of 1978. He said he had heard about a masters program at the University of Nebraska and informed Principal Sam Nelson of his idea. Mr. Nelson thought they should go ahead with the plan and see how it worked. As already shown, the idea turned out to be an excellent one. Plans for next year's reunion are already being made. There will also be a special place in the building set aside for photographs of these memorable events. Job Well Done-222 Edwin Faulkner pauses to visit with superintendent of Lincoln Public Schools.

Dawn Vogeltanz-I think Mrs. Klein will always stand out in my LHS memories. She is always willing to listen and ready to help anyone who needs it. Too bad there aren't more teachers like her! Marge Peth- oud—I'll remem- ber the teachers I had and the friends I made. Hillary Doerr-I'll remember the wonderful attitude of the staff and the students. The new Media Center detection system caught a few students off-guard. Janelle Wiese—I feel that I will always remember all of the friends that I have made throughout my yeras at LHS. I'll never forget all of the good times and the bad that I have experienced. These will all be memories of the past that will leave when I do. Doug Gies—I will remember the new friendships that I've made and the good times you have at the football and basketball games. Up With People fire up Lf ky Fry will travel with the group next year. John Link—I'll always remember Mrs. Sprackling and her Chemistry class. I'll always remember how amazed I was at the difference between my first yeat at East High and my second year at Lincoln High. It's great to be at a place where people would see you as who you were rather than as what you had. Korinna Jones—I will remember the friends, the old and new friendships but it's the special things that you remember the most like your first prom, first alumni day, and the first games of the season. I met so many new people and I will always be honored to be considered a Link. Brenda Bates—My memories will be taking out the Oval and putting n the new track, and all the crazy pep rallies. Hillary Doerr and Tom Hinshaw were cast members in The All School Play The Diary of Anne Frank. Pfeiff grad too My dog has been waiting for me to get some time off, reflected Lincoln High School Social Studies Instructor Mr. William Pfeiff early this May. The dog Mr. Pfeiff talks about is his friend Coach and the time Coach is looking forward to will come May 30 when his master ends 34 years of service to Lincoln High School. Mr. Pfeiff's LHS career actually began long before he was given his first teaching assignment in January of 1946. It began when he first enrolled at Lincoln High School as a student n the fall of 1933. Upon graduation in 1936, Mr. Pfeiff entered the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, where he was a member of the varsity football team. Graduating from the University in 1940, Mr. Pfeiff then took a teaching job in the Norfolk Public Schools. I was one of those crazy guys that wanted to get into school business, said Mr. Pfeiff. I wanted to coach and teach school, he said. But Mr. Pfeiff's Norfolk employment was interrupted by service in the United States Army during World War II. Following the war, Mr. Pfeiff returned to Lincoln and soon found a teaching position open at Lincoln High. From there on the two (LHS and Pfeiff) have been almost inseparable. In his early days of teaching at LHS, Mr. Pfeiff also followed his interest in football. It was quite a thrill to come back to Lincoln High School on the staff, and to be football coach not too many years after I played here, he said. In 1955. Mr. Pfeiff later became Dean of Boys and Athletic Director for 10 years; he then became Vice-Principal in 1966. A good share of my duties here dealt with the negative phase of things. But you have to keep in mind that this only deals with a limited number of people, commented Mr. Pfeiff. I have seen all kinds of young people make some good efforts and get the job done. Mr. Pfeiff, who has spent half of his life around youth, continues to hold a fondness for them. I think the next best thing to being young, is to be around young people and I hope my attitude hasn't change too much towards young people. I sincerely say I enjoy being around young people. If I didn't I wouldn't be here, said Pfeiff. While Mr. Pfeiff doesn't feel he is a millionare in terms of money, he does feel he is A«althy in other ways. I haven't put a lot of money in the bank from my experiences here, but I kind of feel I'm wealthy in many respects in dealing with young people, said Pfeiff. I'm not envious of anybody in terms of those that might have big bank accounts. If I see young people make a little progress, that's good and I feel pretty good about it, he added. I came back to Lincoln High and with no regrets, said Pfeiff. I'm not unhappy. Lincoln High School has been good to me, he said. After 34 years at LHS, Mr. Pfeiff will be graduating for the second time when he retires this May. I have had my life scheduled for so long that now I'm going to 'de-schedule', Pfeiff said. Mr. Pfeiff plans on using his free time by taking things day by day. Some of his activities will including riding his bike and playing golf. I'll chase those golf balls, but since I can't hit 'em that far they won't be too hard to find, Pfeiff jokingly said. Mr. Pfeiff also plans on spending some time with his family. His family includes his wife Dorothy, their three children. Biff, Bill, and Helen, his six grandchildren, and of course, Coach . Coach means a lot to me, he said. Mr. Pfeiff finds himself surrounded by members of the 1980 graduating class. Row 1: Deni Disney, Tracy Anderson, Mr. Pfeiff.

Each member of the class will leave behind the security of Lincoln High and head their separate way. We will take with us memories that will last a lifetime, friendships we've made, and growing we've done. Growing is a continuous process with high school being a very important stage in that process. But now it is almost over for the approximately 430 seniors n the class of '80. Our futures are beginning to split into many paths. As we each take a different path we gather with us our own individual memories not to be put into a scrap book to sit idle but to be built on. High school and our childhood from the foundation of our future. With our accomplishments and acquirements we must build upon that foundation to attain the goals we have set forth for ourselves. With confidence we can go down that new path and attain our goals giving thanks to the people we have learned from along the way -parents, teachers, administrators and friends. While we each strive for different goals it is important to remember that success is not measured in terms of dollars but in happiness and the contribution one can make to society. That contribution will be different for each one of us. Whatever your contribution, strive to do your best. The feeling of striving has been imprinted in all of us Advocate Editor Assistant Editor .

Bill Tesch Lori Trejo Advisor Principal 4 Opinions by the faculty at Lincoln High. They have installed in us an asset in which we will begin to appreciate more later on in life. For caring, we should say thanks to the faculty and especially. Mr. Pfeiff, who is retiring this year. Mr. Pfeiff has given Lincoln High pride by his 34 years of service to LHS as a coach, vice-principal and teacher. Mr. Pfeiff would probably look upon the class of 1980 and the work he and the other faculty members have done and say with modesty and pride another Lincoln High job well done. by Ann Henning Think Tank —Liz Burden — Writing the final column of the year was a very hard thing to do. Final is so... final. I felt needed to leave the underclassmen with some words of wisdom, but have none to give except hang in there. That shows what I've learned in my thirteen-year tenure in school. So instead, here's an attempt at a tongue-in-cheek look at school.. I'll begin at the beginning, a good place to start, (These things are all true, well they all are, in part.) In grade school I learned my A B C's, my 1 2 3's and so on, They tried to teach me to read and print, and then to write, and sort of spell. All although I didn't learn it so well. They decided to let me go on. In junior high I learned my A B C's, although in Spanish this time. The new math taught me what 7's were, and how to do some algebra stuff, And although I didn't learn enough, I moved on up the line. In grade school I played with toys, and tried to be as tough as the boys. In junior high I opened my eyes, and guess what I discovered - guys! High school brought the dating scene, and problems of a rare creature called teen. In high school I learned that letters were numbers and sometimes Greek to me, There were electives to take such as singing and gym that somehow I managed to pass, (Although I wasn't always in class,) Me they no longer wanted to see. So now I'm back at the beginning, only now commencement, it's called I'm ready, I think, although I'm not sure, to leave these Lincoln High Halls. The moral or adage of all of this stuff; Although you prepare for the ultimate worst, you never prepare enough. But sophomores and juniors don't dismay, someday you'll reach the top. And now I'll end at the ending, a very good place to stop. (for the last time) Auditorium Sculpture Graduating Links leave gift behind As the 1980 school year comes to an end the Lincoln High School graduating seniors will be leaving their trademark in the form of a senior class gift. Many ideas v ere suggested before the final decision was made concerning this year's gift, which is a three dimensional art relief sculpture. On both sides of the LHS auditorium doors the gift will be displayed. It consists of three dimensional letters stating Lincoln High School, established in 1871 and three large Links. Both the Links and letters will be painted in gold. According to Dr. Jean Kleitsch, director of attendance, the gold pained relief sculpture will enhance the red wall that it will be attached to. On the real dark red wall it will be beautiful especially with spotlights shining on it. Also the alumni pictures will be hung on this wall with the sculpture, said Kleitsch. Bruce Crowther, president of the Senior Steering Committee stated the estimated cost of the project at $500-600. All of the work for the class gift is being done by an independant professional painter, Lee Walter. The Senior Steering Committee learned of Walter through LHS Art Instructor Merrill Peterson. According to Crowther, Walter hopes to have the project completed by May 20. Senior recognition day. The Senior class gift committee consists of five members: Jenny Carver, Karen Miller, Sue Rader, Eilene Nettleton, and Chris Stubbendieck. They have been handling all of the arrangements and decisions dealing with the 1980 senior class gift. Voting on the class gift was open to all seniors, and the three top choices were 1. a clock to be hung in the LHS mall; 2. a three-dimensional art relief sculpture and 3. a trust fund in Mr. William Pfeiff's name. Although the idea of a clock received the most votes it was not feasible because of the expense involved. The committee then decided upon the sculpture idea which had received the second largest amount of votes. Many other ideas concerning the senior gift were presented to the committee, one of which was the repairing of last years senior class gift. According to Dr. Kleitsch, the circular fountain designed by Jeff Barron, located on Seniors the cafeteria patio area will become operational, but it is not known presently when the problems connected to drainage will be solved. The initial cost of the fountain has been estimated between $1200-1300. The actual work involved with repair will begin during the summer. Two seniors from the class of 79, Barron and Mark Hammer will be re-doing the entire plumbing system and the actual cleaning up involved. Barron stated that to protect the fountain during the winter a cover would have to be designed to prevent snow and ice from damaging it further. It bothers me because it could work but I would rather have it not work than have it work wrong, said Barron. According to LHS Counselor Mrs. Alma Howdeshell the construction and basic idea of the fountain was a display of a very talented student. She also stated that many fountains in public places don't function properly because of inadequate protection from extreme weather changes as well as inadequate protection from people who abuse them in various ways. The abuse of the LHS fountain is evident, stated Howdeshell, but nothing is being done at the moment to get rid of the bugs (mosquitoes and larvae) and papers that surround the fountain. Howdeshell said that the fountain has been inoperable since the 1979 senior sign-out party. Barron was also disappointed because his senior class didn't have the opportunity to enjoy their class gift more. Seniors face two final activities As the school year concludes, the class of 1980 faces only two more activities together. These final activities are Baccalaureate and Commencement. Baccalaureate, a short religious service, will be held in Pershing Auditorium on May 25 at 7:45 pm. This is a joint service with an estimated 1800 students from the four Lincoln high schools attending. All seniors must be in cap and gown to participate. The service consists of an invocation, a performance by one of the schools' choirs, an inspirational speech and a Benediction. The entire program should last about an hour. Aside from the appealing scene created by the differently colored gowns, Dr. Jean Kleitsch, LHS attendance director, likes Baccalaureate because she feels it allows students to see old friends again from other schools. Three days after Baccaluareate, on May 28. Commencement will also be held in Pershing at 7:45 p.m. The boys will be wearing the traditional black gowns and the girls will be wearing red gowns. There is also an invocatior by r ame Crowther, Bruce Crowther's father, and a performance by the LHS Choir scheduled. After the choir's presentation, Hillary Doerr, this year's senior speaker, will address her fellow students with her speech entitled Our Job Tonight. Doerr's speech deals with the fear and uncertainty that go through the mind's of high school graduates. It's (the speech) about letting go; moving on. It's encouraging because it says we can change things in the world. It's terribly sentimental. said Doerr. Doerr feels many seniors find it difficult to think about graduating. It is very hard to leave something secure for something that is new and strange, she said. Doerr admitted to having a little trouble in writing her speech, but she was more concerned on how she would come across to her fellow seniors. I didn't want to preach. I wanted to talk about going on. I didn't want to force my point of view on a captive audience. Doerr says that being a senior speaker was always omethin h houj like to do, but she never really thought it would happen. I never thought I would actually have the guts to try out, she said. Doerr was chosen from among five other speakers by a board composed of seniors, teachers and administrators. She did express regret, however, that only one senior speaker could be chosen. All the kids had excellent speeches, she said. It's too bad only one could be chosen. Following Doerr's presentation Mr. William Pfeiff, alias Mr. Lincoln High, will speak. His speech is entitled (what else?) Hit em Hard. Commencement will conclude when Mr. Sanford Nelson, LHS principal, asks the senior class to present itself. Each senior will then cross the stage, shake hands with Nelson and receive a diploma cover from a representative of the school board. After the ceremony, this cover will be handed in and the seniors will receive their diplomas in the basement. The entire program is expected to run Seniors 5 Traditional awards honor 1980 senior Senior Awards Day, a tradition at Lincoln High School, was held on May 20. 1980. Seniors who have excelled in athletics, the fine arts, and academics were honored for their outstanding accomplishments. There were 18 awards presented this year and a number of scholarships.

Will most of these seniors go on to college? How many are planning to attend UN-L or Wesleyan? A recent Advocate survey polled 80 seniors, 42 males and 38 females, to find out. Forty-eight seniors or 60 per cent of those polled plan to attend the University of Nebraska-Lincoln next semester. Of these 48 future Cornhuskers, 39 investigated in some sort of financial aid program. Four students commented on how their effort proved fruitless. As one put it Close, but no cigar. However one person announced she was successful in acquiring a scholarship. Five seniors are planning to go to Southeast Community College and another four are planning to go to Wesleyan. Eight of the nine students looked into financial aid programs. According to the survey, three seniors definitely want to go to college next semester and have even sought for Seniors financial assistance, but have yet to make up their minds on exactly which college they will attend. On the other hand, four seniors are not quite ready to become college students. One person plans to travel, another just wants to take a year off, a third senior has to wait and see how a job opportunity comes out and the fourth simply replied with No on the question of continuing with his education. Another three seniors are entering the military (two the Marines). What may be surprising about this fact is that one future Marine, Marge Pethoud, is a 17-year-old female. Pethoud said she looked into the other branches of the military, before deciding on the Marines, but they just didn't offer as much. The Marines will pay 75 per cent of the tuition if I decide to go to college. They just offered more and it's a bigger challenge for a girl to get in, she said. Pethoud says that her parents like the idea of her joining the Marines, but her friends seem to feel a little differently. My friends think I'm crazy, she said. Following boot camp, Pethoud will have four years of active duty and two years of active or inactive duty with the Marines. Of the remaining 13 seniors, two are going to attend the University of Kansas and another two are planning to go to the University of Wisconsin- Madison. The remaining seniors are going to attend colleges in places as close as Milford, Nebraska to places as far east as New York, Massachusetts, South Carolina and Virginia. Mary Jones is the only senior, in our survey, that will be traveling west as she plans to attend Ricks College in Rexburg, Idaho for two years and then transfer to Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah. Jones chose Brigham Young because of an excellent nursing program and has acquired a scholarship along with some grants. Jones says her special interest in nursing is pediatrics, but she isn't limiting herself to just that particular field. ''My minor is psychology. she said. Also, if I'm still not married, I may become a pediatrician or a paramedic. Of the 12 seniors leaving Nebraska for an education, only seven applied for any type of financial assistance. Seniors 7 High school grads surveyed College students encounter soaring prices Many students planning to go to college are likely to encounter demanding financial challenges. The soaring cost of education is forcing some universities to cut back facilities and courses and at the same time increase costs borne by students. Several facets are included in the cost of a year of college: tuition, fees, books, room, board, recreation, and spending money. Tuition, in most universities, depends on the number of hours a student carries. For example, the average freshman at the University of Nebraska- Lincoln (UN-L) carries 15 hours. A Nebraska resident would pay approximately $429 a semester (tuition and fees). A non-resident would pay close to $1,044 a semester. Fees cover several different expenses including recreation, health. Union facilities, student newspapers, and other student organizations. UN-L fees are a big question mark for next year, according to Bob Clark, Director of Student Accounts at the University of Nebraska. Clark said UN L fees are divided into two funds. Fund A, the smaller of the two, covers student organizations such as the university newspaper. Fund B, the larger, covers cost of union facilities, bonds, and operation of recreational facilities. Both funds must be approved by the Board of Regents. Although fund B has been approved, Clark says fund A will probably be cut to lower spending. Other costs included in a college education are books and supplies. A student often spends as much as $125 a semester for text books, notebooks, etc. According to Jerry Mullinix, Text Book Manager at the Nebraska Bookstore, an average English or History book costs $20 to $30 a semester. Biology and other science books are $25 to $30 plus expenses for labs and special notebooks. Mullinix said Engineering books are the most expensive 8 Seniors and basic math and psychology are the least expensive. The cost of room and board varies from college to college. Some technical and vocational schools have no housing available on campus. At the University of Wisconsin-Madison, room and board in the dormatories averages $1,650 a semester. This cost includes dining halls. Student Union, theater, and meal service. UN-L dorms are less expensive but the cost only includes 20 meals a week plus room and board. Single, double, or triple rooms are available to UN-L students. Single rooms run for $905 a year, doubles run $1,555, and triples run $1,460. According to one highly accepted college guide (Love joy's College Guide), You don't have to be rich to go to college. The guide offers financial aid suggestions such as payment plans, work-study programs, student loan programs, grants, and scholarship information. College costs vary for students in different situations. For example, a person living at home and going to school full time wouldn't pay as much as someone living on campus and going full time. The government pays for some people's education, while others work full time and go to school part time. If the financial figures made available by recent high school graduates are any indication of the cost of an average college education, it would seem advisable that college bound students begin early in saving for their post-education. Full Time Student Living At Home LHS graduate Greg Lemon: UN-L freshman, majoring in Political Science. Carries 12 hours; tuition and fees-$400 a semester; books and supplies=$75 a semester. Freshman year almost $1,000. Part Time Student Living At Home LHS graduate Lorele Lesoing: UN-L freshman, majoring in Fashion Advertising.

Tuition there is $412 every 10 weeks; apartment=$75 a month; books and supplies-$100; uniforms=$100. Spent at Bryan=$6,120. Cost of Stoll's total educational 1,320. Out Of State LHS graduate Jeff Barron, full time at Kansas City Art Institute: Tuition and fees=$4,000 a year; books and supplies=$1500 a year; dorm=$900 (not including meals); meals=$800. Total cost of freshman year 7,200. Grants And Loans Diane Potts, UN-L Senior has attended the University of Nebraska for four years on a federal grant. The grant includes room and board for four years, tuition and fees, summer school courses, and books. t— --------------------------- LHS Oval sees changes; Lighting, seating on wag Once the Oval always the Oval. It may undergo some changes but to Lincoln High School students it wll always be the Oval, said LHS Principal Sanford Nelson. With time, fewer LHS students can recall the former six lane cinder track which was surrounded by concrete walls. The concrete walls vwre torn down during the Seniors summer of 1978 and a new eight-lane all weather track was added last summer. Lincoln Public School Superintendent John Prasch said the new track won't be fenced in like the previous one. Additional plans for the new Oval include seats, lights, and a scoreboard, but said Prasch. The lights and scoreboard are not in the first phase. Nelson said the plan originally called for seating on the west side for 2,000 spectators, restrooms, concessions and storage, but due to inflation and rising costs seating plans have been reduced to 1,000 to 1,200 seats with possible expansion at a later date. Prasch said the reason for the seats located on the west side was because the old track L was not regulation size. He said, when the new track was constructed it brought the track closer to the building. If the seats were put in on the east then it would crowd and talc away that area on the west side of the building. And since the School Board bought those houses on the west side why not use it, Prasch said. Both Nelson and Prasch expected work to continue early this summer. Nelson said. We don't feel this is a large scale operation and this should not take longer than 60 days. The concrete that will be used for the seats is pre-stressed and pre-formed, meaning it is already formed into seats and just needs to be put together. Nelson and Prasch are delighted with the work done thus far. According to Nelson two points really stood out. One vres that it was a excellent facility since it was the only eight-lane all-weather track in Nebraska, and second was that it added beauty to the campus. Prasch was also pleased with the track, but said it was to early to tell how the field was doing. The turf is better and the field is in better shape because there is a new drainage system, he said. Both men felt that by next fall the track would be ready ) go, but the field will not. A Richards, Bruce Crowther, Annie Mumgaard, Bill Szalawiga.

It's exhillerating! Kelly Ellenwood and Bruce Crowther were crowned as king and queen of the Junior-Senior Prom held Saturday night. May 10th in the Nebraska Student Union Ballroom. The Junior Steering Committee, under the direction of Jerry Neff and Tom Pappas, chose Cool Change as the Prom theme. Cool Change Change seemed to be an appropriate theme as far as music is concerned. This year instead of a band providing the entertainment for the formal, the Juniors hired a system called Sound Unlimited. The system played a wide variety of music including country, rock and roll, pop, disco, and punk. The decorations consisted of strobe lights, blue sailboat centerpieces, and a palm tree sunset backdrop. The Prom attendants included B.J. Hughes, Marcia Richards, Craig Mulligan, Colleen Weixelman, Rick Self, Annie Mumgaard, Bill Szalawiga, and Korinna Jones. Cool Change 9 The Good Doctor’ remedies LHS fever Stete PiepeiT D n' Di, eV La “ Purdv °Ut a Scene ,rom The Good Doctor.” (photo by Freak Week Brown Bag Day provides fun On Monday, May 12, the Student Council kicked off Spring Freak Week wth a 55-minute lunch hour and a rock band providing entertainment. Students v «re encouraged to bring brown bag lunches and eat on the mall during the concert. The cafeteria served hamburgers and french fries on paper plates so students could eat outside. The band, Grand Generation, consisted of Jeff Boswell, Will Sahs, and Mike Ratzloff, all from Lincoln High, and Jerry Gaines, from Irving Junior High. 10 Activi ties According to the Student Council, the brown bag band day was a big success. I thought it was great action, said Council Member Suzanne Peterson. Everyone seemed to like it-not just certain people. Mr. Don Dean. Assistant Activities Principal for Student Services, said, I thought it was just fantastic! We’ll have to do it again when it's warmer. Monica Polivka, LHS senior, said it was a way of showing some school spirit. It was neat to see the whole school all together, Polivka said. Another senior, Mike Wensel, said it showed LHS has a lot of talent. It was pretty cool, he added. Anne Buntain, sophomore council member, said the brown bag lunch day was a success but warmer weather would have made it better. She also felt that it would have been more fun if people would have danced. If one had spring fever, then the 1979-80 Mummers' play, The Good Doctor may just have been the cure. The treatment was a dose of laughter, and a pinch of poignant moments, that was administered May 8 and 9 in the LHS Auditorium. The cast included: Tom Hinshaw. Mike Geren, Liz Howard, Scott Haller, Hillary Doerr, Justine Johnson, Kim Brown. Lance Purdy, Kent Holbert, Tammi Preston, Brian Everman, Leslie Forbes, Mike Miller, Amy Thone, Deni Disney, Todd Barry, and Mikki Drees. 'The Good Doctor, a comedy by Neil Simon, is a series of vignettes (short plays) taken from some of Anton Chekhov's writings. Chekhov was a famous Russian playwright of the early 19th century. Simon had 'doctored' up some of Chekhov's stories, and made a very funny play, said Miss Joan Lazarus, LHS drama instructor, who is the director of the play, and also sponsor of Mummers. We chose the play for that reason, and because there were good male and female parts; the play was challenging for students. The play was also challenging for the director. Lazarus had the task of finding a tactful way to present scenes with questionable subject matter, such as a scene entitled 'The Seduction . She was also challenged to leave a absence next year to attend graduate school at Arizona State University, to study child drama. According to Mummers Vice President Mikki Drees, Lazarus has already left a lasting impression. It's good to have a change, but she will be missed, said Hillary Doerr, Mummers president. Mummers may suffer in the next year. In her years at LHS. Lazarus has tried to show that the arts are basic to education. She wanted to get everyone into the act. My whole life the only thing I thought I would do was act. I used to watch television and say: Hey! I can do better than that. I wanted to share that feeling with others. Student and teachers Variety of summer activities planned It's that time of year again, a time when teachers and students begin planning their summer events. Several Lincoln High students will be traveling to Europe this summer. These students are involved with People-to-People, a high school student ambassador program. Persons included in this program are Barb Dunklau, Peggy Gaube, Emily Wawryczczuk, Robert Bierbaum, Kenney Loos and Rob Champoux. The students will leave Lincoln on June 15. and will travel to Washington D.C. for two days, where they will receive an orientation. The orientation will include briefings by the United States State Department and members of the Educational Travel Institute. Students will also visit Capitol Hill and meet some legislators. Following the orientation, students will them fly to Vienna where they will spend two nights. There they will travel by bus to the Bavarian section of Germany. While in Germany, the Ambassadors will be introduced to the families who will host them and individually plan their activities and entertainment for the homestay visit. The students will stay there five nights. Other places of interest the students will visit include Spain, France, Northern Italy, Southern Austria and Hungary. The entire European trip will cost the students approximately $3,200 according to Loos. People-toPeople participants are initially recommended by a principal or a teacher. A Screening Committee determines which of these students might serve best as Ambassadors. Earnestness and a mature outlook are important factors in determining the program's participants. Another LHS student will also be venturing out of the country this summer. Mike Jarecke plans to visit Equador as an American Field Service (AFS) student Jarecke will be leaving the states on June 18, ahd will return home sometime in September. I'll probably return home during the school year-in September, Jarecke said. Jarecke applied for AFS in October and found out he was accepted in April. I'm excited. I think it's going to be a neat experience, commented Jarecke. It will definitely be an experience of a lifetime, he added. While many mII be spending much time out of the country, some students and faculty members will spend time visiting places in the U.S. Social Studies Instructor Aldie Johnson will again go to Washington D.C. in July to serve on the Boys' Nation staff. Before that he will be chief counselor for Cornhusker Boys State in June. Johnson also has plans for doing yard, garden and housework projects and playing some golf. Johnson is also a staff member for the basketball clinics scheduled to be held this summer. Summer Senior Korinna Jones is leaving Nebraska in July for 28 days. She is going to California to visit some relatives. Jones feels her trip to California is unique. My California trip is unique to me. I've never flown in an airplane before and I've never been in California, she said. Junior Kim Brow has plans for traveling to Washington and Oregon, and she says she might help work backstage on the Pinewood Bowl production of Westside Story. Brown also plans to attend drill team camp, along with working. LHS Senior Greg Wawryczczuk has possible plans for visiting New York City, but said he would mostly be working at Woods Swimming Pool and Valentinos. Bill Zuspan, social studies teacher, will be taking courses at the University Ne braska-Lincoln this summer. He will also visit Washington D.C. and will be involved in a basketball clinic. Seniors Nancy Wolff, Susan Searcey and Silvia Paeglitis have plans for going to Chicago following graduation. According to Paeglitis, the three plan to have a wild and crazy time! Betty Heckman, a LHS business teacher, will be running the Women's Transnational Golf Tournament at the Country Club of Lincoln. The tournament involves top amateur women golfers from the U.S. and foreign countries. Heckman also stated that she would be playing in a few golf tournaments herself. memories recalled by staff members Once again the time has come for the Lincoln High School staff and students to reminisce about the past years most memorable events and to express their hopes and expectations for the upcoming school year. Although summer has gained top priority in most students minds and the thought of next school year is far away some LHS students are looking forward to next year. If you haven't guessed already these students are juniors who are anticipating being seniors and the thought of graduating. I'm looking forward to being a senior next year but I'll never forget all the homework of this year, said junior Chris Szalawiga. She also stated that she would remember her American Literature class the most out of the rest of her classes. Mrs. (Jean) Grainger has a crazy but fun way of teaching, she's really nice and very descriptive. said Chris. According to junior Wendy Mager, the past school year has been a good year for everyone at LHS. 'The student s have excelled in many areas this year. There's a lot we all can be proud of. Everyone should get involved in something because you only go to high school once in your life. said Wendy. The student's aren't alone in reminiscing. The LHS Staff is preparing for the upcoming year yet not forgetting many memorable events of the past year. According to English Department Chairpersons Mrs. Merrell Grant, the atmosphere of the past year among the students was positive and productive. I have really enjoyed the association of the new Writing Lab class, I have also had a wonderful year in teaching the kids. said Grant. History teacher and Bo Basketball coach Aldie Johnson summed up the past year and future; by stating that every year is memorable, both in sadness and highlight and everything remembered from each year and hoped for in the future completes your life. I'm no longer part of the younger generation so I stay active as a teacher, a coach and by working in youth programs. said Johnson. Summer 11 Lazarus to direct summer operetta West Side Story, a classic in American musical theater, will be presented this summer at Pinewood Bowl in Pioneers Park. The musical, written by Arthur Laurents with music by Leonard Bernstein and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim, will involve several Lincoln High people. Directing the show will be LHS Drama Instructor Joan Lazarus. For the past few months, she has been busy with auditions and researching New York in the 1950's, gangs, Puerto Ricans coming to New York and the history of the musical West Side Story Lazarus is looking forward to working with the many talented people in the cast. Lazarus is extremely enthusiastic about doing a show outside. 'The outdoor facility lends itself to this show, said Lazarus. 'There is a sense of energy about this show, gleamed Lazarus. The biggest advantage is the incredible committment to the show from the people in the chorus to the producers. She feels the hardest job she faces this summer will be coordinating the technical aspects of the show with the artistic end. Lazarus is ready to 100 per cent into the show. I love to teach and I love to direct. It'll be nice to have the opportunity to just direct without teaching. Lazarus is also excited about her staff. Dick Grace will be the vocal music director. John Tavlin is the Orchestra Director and Mariane Sanders will be the choreographer. Sanders currently operates the Lincoln Dance Center and was a Rockette at the famed Radio City Music Hall in New York City. She has danced in many Broadway shows and has appeared in several television shows. Tavlin is the director of the Neoclassic Jazz Ensemble and will go on tour after the show. Mr. Grace teaches voice at the University of Nebraska- Lincoln. All I wanted to do was be in the chorus, said LHS Senior Kelly Ellenwood. 12 Summer Kelly will be Maria, the female lead. She is looking forward to working with Lazarus. I admire her as a director, said Kelly. After appearing in '110 in the Shade,' this year, Kelly wanted to go on stage again. I've performed a lot, said Kelly, but I've never been in a real show. In preparing for her role as Maria, Kelly has started to study Spanish. She will have to dye her hair black, in order to look Puerto Rican. Kelly will also work on getting a nice tan. Besides working with a good director, Kelly is also excited about working with Vocal Music Director Grace. All of this work will take up much of Kelly's time. There is very little time for myself. It totally consumes you, Kelly said. LHS Sophomore Amy Thone was cast as Anybodys. It will be a lot harder work, said Amy. A lot more will be expected of us. Amy had planned on going to the East Coast to spend part of her summer with friends in Virginia. However, she decided to audition for -Summer the show. I'm happy and I think it will be a good play. Senior Karen Miller will play Minnie, a Jet girl. She is excited about appearing in West Side Story this summer. I enjoy working in community productions. It's a good way to make friends. I'm also going to work on set crew, said Karen. I've heard it's a lot of fun. Other LHS students and their parts in West Side Story are Leslie Forbes, Velma; Joni Longan, Clarice; Tom Hinshaw, Doc; Anne Buntain, Jet dancer. West Side Story is a modern day musical version of Romeo and Juliet. It takes place in the streets and alleys of a large city. There is a building rivalry between two gangs; the Sharks, who are the Puerto Ricans, and the Jets, who are the Whites. Riff, the Jet leader, swears to remove the Sharks from the Jet turf. Bernardo is the leader of the Sharks. Riff decides to settle the tension at a dance that night. Riff relys on his friends and co-founder of the Jets, Tony, to help him. Bernardo's sister Maria comes to the dance and meets Tony. He falls in love with her and the conflict begins. Pinewood Bowl annually presents a summer operetta. In past the musicals have included: Oliver, Sweet Charity, George M, Oklahoma and Annie Get Your Gun. The outdoor setting provides a unique theater experience that is hard to duplicate. Lincoln High teachers say goodbye Lincoln High School will not only be saying good bye to the 1980 graduating seniors this spring, but also to six teachers who are leaving LHS. Joan Lazarus, Anne El-Omami, Merrill Peterson, Jim Wrenholt, Bill Pfeiff, and Dave Gillespie are all leaving LHS for different reasons. Several are hoping to find happiness in a further pursuit of their career. Joan Lazarus. LHS Drama teacher, and Mummers Club advisor, is returning to graduate school to achieve her Masters Degree in Fine Arts. Lazarus has taught here for three years in such classroom areas as Speech, Stagecraft, and English 10. Lazarus will be attending school in Tempe, Arizona. She will be studying childrama. I love to learn ' Lazarus said. It helps me to improve my work. Lazarus has enjoyed teaching LHS students who she feels are very dedicated. She also feels, however, that it has been difficult to expect high quality work from all her students. It's hard to expect things of the kids that they might not be capable of doing, Lazarus said. Lazarus also said that she feels several students have a great deal of talent, creativity, and potential. Unfortunately, she said the students don't know it themselves. LHS Art teacher, Mrs. Anne El-Omami, is taking a semester leave of absence. El-Omami has taught here for five years. Some of her classes have been Elementary Design, Acrylic Painting, Weaving, and Jewelry Making. El-Omami will be leaving as her husband has received a job at an art firm in Omaha. She has applied for a job at the Omaha's Joselyn Art Museum, where she could explore further art possibilities, such as cultural anthropology. El-Omami has enjoyed teaching at LHS, however, she hopes she can find something else to continue in. I have met a lot of really good people and I would like to maintain t hese friendships, El-Omami said. I will miss the teaching, but I hope I can go on to somewhere else. Faculty Mr. Merrill Peterson head of the LHS Art Department, is also taking a leave of absence. Peterson has taught Photography and Commercial Art at LHS since 1973. Peterson has received the job as Advertising Manager and Art Director at Hughs Brothers Inc., in Seward, Nebr. His work will include photography, printing and working on ads for catalogs and phamplets. Peterson is looking forward to his new career plans as this will allow him to continue in the art profession. I have opportunities that I want to explore, along with the fact that the business world pays betters, Peterson said. I don't really have a desire to be in administration, which has limited opportunities. Peterson also feels that LHS faces the problem that all schools face with unmotivated students. I really like about 95 per cent of the students, and I am frustrated by the other 5 per cent, Peterson said. Like in most every school an excess of the time is spent with the students who abuse the system the most. In his nine years at LHS, Mr. Peterson has met several exceptional students, along with memorable friendships, and experiences. However, he is not sure as to whether he will be returning after his one-year absence. Unlike several of the other teachers leaving this year Mr. Jim Wrenholt is not sure what his future has in store for him. Wrenholt who teaches guitar class will be leaving, because the class will no longer be offered. Wrenholt will still be teaching private guitar lessons, but he will not teach in a classroom, as no other school offers a guitar class. In the two years that Wrenholt has taught here he has found both good and bad qualities. Lincoln High's best quality is that they offered the guitar class which no other school has offered, and their worst quality is that they are dropping the guitar class, Wrenholt said. Wrenholt has enjoyed teaching the students who he feels are very friendly. I like teaching guitar because it's a fun subject. said Wrenholt. I will really miss the hot jam sessions on fourth floor. This year all LHS students are forced to say good-bye to a tradition. Mr. Lincoln High himself is retiring. Mr. Bill Pfeiff who has spent 34 years here is turning in his education board. Pfeiff has taught Social Studies for approximately 11 years and has filled such positions as Dean of Boys. Athletic Director and Vice-Principal. Pfeiff feels he is ready for this retirement, and all the benefits of it. I am not going to be around forever, and I have a few things I would like to do, Pfeiff said. I would like to take a day off occasionally; a day of R R. Also leaving this year is Careers, and Health Teacher Dave Gillespie. Gillespie is leaving his teaching job, so he may try something he has always wanted to do. Gillespie will be at the University of Nebraska where he will be an assistant coach in football. I am going to do something I have always wanted to do, Gillespie said. I enjoy coaching more than teaching. Although Gillespie has enjoyed teaching at LHS over any other school, he doubts he will return unless his teaching situation was different. I really don't enjoy being in a classroom, Gillespie said. He has especially enjoyed working in the athletic areas here, and said he will still be rooting for the Links. I wish the athletic teams the best of luck, he said. Faculty 13 Six Teachers Leave Six Lincoln High teachers will end their LHS stay this week. Wrenholt El-Omami Gillespie Pfeiff Peterson My three years at Lincoln High School have been very rewarding and have definitely made a difference in my future. I live in the Southeast district but I transferred to Lincoln High when I was a sophomore so I attended LHS because I wanted to, not because I had to. It was really hard coming to a school where I didn't know anyone. I had to start my life all over again and make new friends. I discovered that the teachers and students are easy to get to know and they want to know about you. Lincoln High is the way every school should be. You don't have to do what everyone else does to be someone or something. You can just be the person you want to be. Everyone likes everyone else and students don't get into little cliques and space the rest of the school off. The teaching staff at LHS has got to be one of the best. When I was in junior high I thought the teachers were really hard to get along with and that they only wanted to teach and then go horn. One teacher cared, and he was the only reason I made it through junior high school. He helped me with my photography and kept me in school. For this reason I was a little skeptical of the teachers when I started at LHS. I've never gone to a school where the teachers care about the students the way they do here. They will go out of their way to help someone and that can make a difference in someone staying in school or dropping out. Working with the yearbook and newspaper has been the highlight of my high school years. It has given me a chance to meet a lot of people I could never have met. It has also helped me to be responsible and cope with the pressures of deadlines. It has given me the incentive to go on to college and improve my talents. Lincoln High is a school of tradition and working with that tradition has been a great experience for me. Helping with class reunions, alumni associations and most of all helping the Student Council in any way I could has made me appreciate how much people care about LHS. It is easy to see why graduates take so much pride in LHS. I have really enjoyed working with all the staff members, faculty and students. I like being involved with the school and helping in whatever way I could. I just wish I could have done more. Dave Bourke ___________________________________________ First place “Lincoln High is the way every school should be.” “Lincoln High is a school of tradition and working with that tradi- tion has been a great experience for me.” Dave Bourke “I now realize that the ideal school is not necessarily new, or clean or even air conditioned; but warm, open and com- fortable.” Tammi Preston 14 Senior Essays What ha to be a at Lincc Seniors were given tl themselves in an essay Advocate. The topic w you to be a student at Li was awarded first plat received a pass that al free to next year’s Lir Tucker, who placed sec large pizza from Valent Dorothy Ridenour, thi received a medium pizzi In my miniscule mind of fifteen, the ideal school was new, clean, and air-conditioned; clearly East High. I began making plans for a transfer. My parents, however, felt the ideal school was Lincoln Christian. It was clean , but in a different sense. We decided to compromise and go to the school in my district: Southeast. I began researching this school, and found that it was fairly new; besides most of my Irving friends were going there. It seemed all were happy until the borderline was changed. Remorsefully, I was being forced to attend an old, brick-enclosed sauna: Lincoln High. It became my life-long ambition to despise everything and everyone associated with LHS, and I would have succeeded with this self-fulfilling prophecy, if it weren't for rare, compassionate, devoted, faculty members who demand that everyone at least attempt involvement. I epitomized the stereotyped sophomore: terrified, insecure and abnormally introverted. Every morning before I would step inside the building, I would secure the lock on my steel shell, and precisely place the mask over my face. I went from class to class always acting as was expected of me. I sat properly in class never uttering a syllable, nervously glancing at the teacher on occasional intervals, and crumbling when called upon to answer a question. I am certain that at least three-fourths of the teachers I encountered in my sophomore year are still unaware of my existence. My sister suggested that I join the Mummer's Club, because it would help to draw me out. Long before the first meeting, I decided that Mummers was a select group of has-been actors groping for attention, insensitive to newcomers, especially sophomores. I entered the club with the attitude of a vegetarian in a slaughterhouse. I paid my dues, like a Sunday-school girl should, then decided to stop attending the meetings, they were, in my spaghetti-sized mind; it meant student n High? opportunity to express intest sponsored by the “What has it meant to oln High?” Dave Bourke For his efforts, Dave ws him to be admitted ln High events.

Then a sensitive faculty member approached and encourgaed me to become more active in the club play. Just like an obedient house pet, I did everything she said, and much to my disappointment, I thoroughly loved it. When the next event approached I involved myself without outside shoving. Even though desperately I tried not to, I began to make friends, and as the year came to an end I had almost forgotten all my hesitation about LHS. Unfortunately, my old habits had gradually crawled back inside of me during the summer, and I began my junior year much the same as the previous one. This time it took another loving faculty member to pull me out; her approach was more subtle, but still effective. By examining my work she realized my first love; writing. So, very gently this magnificently intelligent lady took my hand and exposed me to experiences and opportunities that I could never have imagined. Through her insight I developed confidence in myself and began to emerge into an active member of the student body. This led to my senior year which was overflowing with the most outstanding moments of my life, all because I dared to get involved. As I reflect upon those past years I find it almost impossible to realize that I was the best recipient for the Miss Super Glued Month Award.” But through the many dedicated teachers that expressed a sincere interest in my personal growth, I escaped from my inner cell and unmasked myself, finally revealing the truth. In three years my values have been drastically altered. I now realize that the ideal school is not necessarily new, or clean or even air conditioned; but warm, open and comfortable. It is a place for experimenting, and receiving encouragement when one falters and acknowledgement when one excells. It's a place for emotional growth and expansion. It is Lincoln High. Tammi Preston Third place Just being a sophomore and having just come out of junior high, I had an empty feeling inside of me, not knowing where the classrooms were, being afraid of getting lost, and afraid of all the negative things I have heard about Lincoln High. After having spent my first day here I quickly threw away my old thoughts and soon developed some new ones. These past three years have meant a lot to me. It has meant being able to accept criticism from my peers and best of friends. A good education that has prepared me for college and a future job. An understanding of people, the ability to overcome the responsibilities placed on me, and being a student here has meant several new and lasting friendships, with memories that will be cherished forever. When I look back and remember all the things I went through; and how fast high school has gone for me, I know that the memories I have will always be there to look back on. Now I must look forward to graduation, and begin to face what is ahead of me and decide which way to turn. I no longer have that empty feeling like I had that first day, but now I have the feeling that Lincoln High will always be a part of me, and when I leave Lincoln High I’m going to say to myself, the best years of my life were spent going to high school, and that this school has done another Lincoln High job well done. Karin Tucker Second place It has meant an education. It has meant working hard on assignments. It has meant working in the Audio-Visual room after school. It has meant being here every day and not missing. It has meant meeting new faces each year. It has meant seeing friendly teachers and faces that are cheerful. It has meant being on Senior Steering Committee. It has meant helping in EPIC swimming. It has meant helping in Joynite on lights. It has meant seeing people go on to colleges. It has meant seeing a fine football team. It has meant seeing the school remodeled. It has meant seeing the oval taken down for a new track. It has meant learning room numbers. It has meant learning to grow up. It has meant going on field trips. It has meant learning a career for the future. It has meant to be proud of our school and knowing people who care. It has meant teachers working with students. It has meant a new mall called the Links Mall.

Volleyball Starting all over the top is how Coach Joyce Johnson describes next years 1980 Varsity Volleyball Team. The team will have no pressures. said Coach Johnson. 'They can set their own style and tradition. Coach Johnson will have three returning letterwinners Lori Trejo, Alecia Edington and Sue Shepherd, to rebuild the team around. Stiffest competition, according to Johnson, will be Northeast who will be returning girls from a district championship and State runner-up team. Lincoln East will also be receiving many good players from their respective junior highs, said Johnson. Preview This summers volleyball clinic will be held July 21-August 1 from 8:3010:30 a.m. for oncoming juniors and seniors. Coach Johnson encourages all who plan on trying out for the sport to participate in the clinic. Something new for this summer is a volleyball program through the VMCA for all girls interested in coming out in the fall. So far there are 31 high school girls interested and 10 from junior high. I'm really excited. said Johnson. Right now I'm looking for sponsors and coaches. Coach Johnson also stated the summer program will only be held one night a week and there will be a time limit. Each girl will also get a chance to play. So far there are eight teams. Sev'ard, Pius X, Waverly and Beatrice may also join. Most of all the league should provide fun this summer said Johnson. I'll be able to see them at least one night a week, without spoiling their summer, she said. Practice begins August 18. for the 1980 season. 18 Sports Cross Country Despite the return of four lettermen, LHS Cross-Country Coach Harold Scott views the upcoming season with uncertainty. Who knows, we may be strong next year, said Scott, who will be entering his 26th year at the helm. If the guys run over the summer, mature and get stronger, we may be good. Seniors Paul Johnson and Bobby Schoonover and Juniors Sean McLoughlin and Jeff Bechtolt will return as the Link harriers hope to rebound from several consecutive off-years. Scott listed Seniors Steve Johnson and Doug Pohlmann, and Junior Jerry Goodwin as top prospects for next fall. Although running is currently enjoying immense popularity nationwide, Scott said the boom has not been felt at LHS. That kind of running is really just jogging for enjoyment, he said. Cross-Country is hard work and competing. It's just not been appealing enough the past few years. Scott added that he foresees no upsurge in interest for the sport in the coming years. I can't see lots of people coming out, he said. I'm hoping a lot of junior high kids will come out, but no one has indicated anything to me yet. Athletes who do decide to come out for Cross-Country next fall will find a major change in store. The length of the courses will be increased from 2% miles to 5000 meters (3.1 miles). Scott feels although the change will not entice more people to try cross-country, it won't have much effect on the sport. The times will be slower, though, he added in his typical deadpan humor. Beys Tennis In the city, Scott expects East and Northeast to be the leaders, with Southeast close behind. He cites Omaha Burke and Millard as the teams to beat in the state. We're in the same boat we always are, Scott says of the upcoming season. We've got a long way to go. The Lincoln High Boys Tennis Team has an uncertain future, without a coach. Former Coach Pat Maloy resigned at the end of the first semester and a new coach has yet to be hired. According to LHS Athletic Director Jim Sommers, a coach won't be hired until the Lincoln High School Administration knows how many teachers they can hire for next year. We have to wait until the School Board tells us how many people we can hire next year because coaches have to be employed by the school. After we know that, we have to try and find a position, otherwise we'll have to use someone that's already on the staff, he said. Looking ahead to next year, there will be four returning letterwinners. They include Jon Fuenning, Tom Stippich, Dave Stuart, and Kurt Mueller. According to Fuenning, Paul Holt, Stippich, and Stuart should be three of the top players. Fuenning feels the number four, five and six singles positions will be important. Our weakness will probably be the top three singles, he said We're going to depend on the lower seeds. Stippich feels that doubles will be strong and that a new coach will be especially helpful. Fuenning and Stippich agree on the main goals for next year. We'd like to win a few more meets and place a little higher at the tournaments than we did last year, Fuenning said. Gymnastics When the Nebraska High School Boys Gymnastics Teams begin practice next August, there will be one change over last year. Girls will be practicing with them. The Nebraska School Activities Association recently announced that Boys and Girls Gymnastics will both be fall sports beginning in 198a The idea, proposed by Charles Rush, Omaha Northv «st athletic director is designed to make better use of finances and personnel. It should save money for transportation since the teams will be going to the same meets instead of taking two different trips for two different meets, said Conde Sargent assistant secretary of the NSAA. Boys and Girls Gymnastics will still be two separate sports, but the teams will travel and hold meets together. According to Sargent, the proposal was given to the April NSAA Representative Assembly, debated, and put to a referendum vote of all schools in the NSAA. The tally of the vote was 166 schools in favor, and 56 schools against the motion. Gymnastics is a predominantly Class A sport. The count of Class A votes was 19 to 12 in favor of the proposal. Two minute warning —Joel Thornton— The spring sports season has ended, and in a matter of days, the 1979-80 school year will be history. Before you head off to the beach in your new Trans-Am, take time think back over the year. What kind of year was it for LHS sports? It all depends on how you look at it. The fall season wasn't spectacular. The Varsity Football Team finished 3-5-1, their worst record since- 1975. The Cross-Country Girls Swimming, and Girls Volleyball Teams all suffered through poor seasons. The Boys Gymnastics Team had a fine year, qualifying as a team for the state meet. The sophomore Football Team also excelled, as they finished the season undefeated. The winter season was one of the most successful in several years for LHS. The Girls Basketball Team led the way by winning the State Class A Championship. But the Boys Basketball, Girls Gymnastics, and Boys Swimming Teams also finished in the state's top ten. In addition, the boys and girls reserve basketball teams compiled winning records. The Varsity and Reserve Wrestling Teams and the Sophomore Basketball Team didn't fare as well. The matmen finished third in the city, while the 10th grade cagers recorded their third straight 3-9 season. The spring sports season at LHS was rather bleak. The Boys Track Team, thinner than ever in numbers, had trouble evading the cellar in most meets. The Varsity Baseball Team finished with a losing record, as did the Girls Tennis Squad. The Girls Track Team, despite losing many standouts to graduation, had a creditable year finishing second in the city. That's the year, all wrapped up in one convenient package. Out of the three sports seasons, only the winter campaign could be termed good . But if you think of a good season only in terms of a successful won-lost record, maybe you need to change your way of looking at things. -----------------------Preview (Continued)----------------------- Lincoln High Gymnastics Coach Gary Jeurink feels that a combined season will hurt the athletes. I can't coach two sports at once, he said 'The gymnasts will have to run their own workouts more because I won't be able to give as much individual help. The Lincoln High Boys Gymnastics Team hopes to be tough though when next fall comes around. Coach Jeurink expects his team to be good in all their events. I hope we'll be strong in almost everything, he said A lot depends on how v «ll everyone trains during the off season. Coach Jeurink has set a high goal for the team. I'm hoping that we'll be in the top three in the state. We could be anywhere from the top three to 12th, depending on how well things go. The returning letterwinners are Dave Cech. Gayle Adams, Jeff Horacek. Jim Gilmour, Pat Wensel. Kevin Burke and Jack Densberger. In addition to seven returning letterwinners there will be several sophomores on the team. There are six to ten kids in Lefler and Everett that look good, Jeurink said. Jeurink cited Wensel, Horacek, and Adams as top hopes for next year. For the Girls Gymnastics Team, improvement is the main goal for this fall Coach Jeurink listed tumbling and the balance beam as weaknesses for the team. We need some work in places and want to improve next year, he said. He felt that the uneven parallel bars would be the team's strong point. The Links will be returning 12 letterwinners: Faith Miller, Lisa Scott, Leah Shaw, Nancy Oppegard, Debbie Todd. Vickie Kuehn, Renee Fox, Sara Thomassen, Kim Jorden, Leselie Hackenberg, Dorothy Brown, and Charlette Harrington. Jeurink also hopes to get It's great to win. Nobody will argue with that statement. But there are other worthwhile things to be gained in sports. There's fun. It could either be actual enjoyment of the sport, or the fun of seeing yourself and your team improve. There's friendship, self-discipline, realization of goals, pride in yourself, and recognition. The list could go on. Dallas Cowboys defensive backfield coach Gene Stallings, he guest speaker at the KFOR All-Sports Banquet several weeks ago, had similar comments on athletics. What kind of year was it for LHS sports? It all depends on how you look at it.” There's just something about that kind of kid (high school athlete), Stallings told the crowd. There's something about doing a windsprint when your tired, or trying to catch up with the next guy in your relay. I'm not happy ju t for the outstanding athletes. I'm talking about the average high school athlete. There's just something about that kind of kid. Maybe there is something special about that kind of kid —the second-string safety on the sophomore football team; the girl who runs the mile in six minutes; the senior who's been cut from the basketball team for two years, but still goes out a final time. They're all out there giving it their best shot. It's easy to laugh at them, or make a smart remark about their team. They probably won't become state champions of all-state, but those individuals are still trying their best to improve themselves. It's that kind of kid who makes high school athletics what it is-something special. some new sophomores on the team. Right now I only know of two girls, Debbie Olster from Goodrich, and Linda Lancaster from Lefler, but we would like to have a few more girls come out, he said. According to Jeurink, Miller, Thomassen, and Hackenberg should be top performers next year. Girls Golf With the weaknesses outnumbering the strengths, the LHS Girls Golf Team will begin its third year in the fall. Coach Sally Roper cites experience as the teams biggest downfall. Most of my girls haven't played golf until they got to Lincoln High, Roper said. The two returning letterwinners, Cindy Cassel and Pam McNeese, have the most playing time, according to Roper. Both have played two years for LHS. Roper also feels that a lack of depth may hinder her team in meets. Next fall, we will have two people out. We need four for a meet, Roper said. Caroline Hier is the promising newcomer for the golfers, according to Roper. Another newcomer for future golf is the promotion of the sport in grade schools by The Municipal Womens Golf Association and Lincoln Women's Golf. Hopefully, with these two groups sparking interest, golf should catch on in a few years, Roper said. Roper feels that Southeast will be the toughest in the city race and also a strong contender for the state title. Any interested girls should contact me before the season begins, Roper added. Football Looking ahead to fall, LHS Football Coach Bob Starr expects bigger and better things from his squad. Thirteen lettermen will return from this year's club, including eight full or part-time starters. Seniors Jim Baker. Rich Confer, Randy Perez, Todd Fielder, Bill Tesch, Keith Harrison, Randy Sports 19 Links find going tough 1980 LHS spring sports season ends One man can make or break a team. LHS Boys Golf Coach Bill Myers will be the first to agree with that statement. Myers watched fine performancs throughout the year by the Links' top three golfers, only to be disappointed by the fourth and fifth men on the team. We had only three good golfers, he sated. If we had one more, we'd be n the thick of things. Instead, the Links finished last in two of their last three meets-the Trans-Nebraska and the Lincoln Public Schools Championships. We just had a lack of depth, Myers said. Our top three (Dave Wallasky, Jeff Blackman, and Tom Stippich) improved quite a bit during the year. We just needed a fourth man. Wallasky, a junior, finished third in the LHS meet, and averaged 78 strokes-per-tourna- ment during the course of the season. The Links other consistent performers, Blackman and Stippich, averaged 81 and 84 strokes respectively. All three drew the praise of Coach Myers. Dave has really improved and turned into an excellent golfer, he said, and Blackman has shot v «ll considering this is his first year on the team. Both have picked up a few medals. Looking back on the year, the LHS coach expressed -----Preview (continued)- Wymore, Rick White, Pat Jellum, Dave Ohmberger, and Mike Patterson, as well as junior Ron Galois will all be back to improve on this year's 3-5-1 record. According to Starr, overall experience will be a strength for the Links, while lack of size and a relatively inexperienced offensive line will be major weaknesses. Size is a factor that concerns me, he said. But it (season) is still a year ahead. We'll just wait and see. Starr added that the coming year will see changes in the Links game plans as both the offense and defense will switch offensively we're still on the drawing board, he said. The Links mentor added that certain factors dictate the change in formation. 20 Sports disappointment in the number of golfers coming out for the team. It really surprised me that more people weren't out, he said (seven vwre n the team). I guess vw did as well as we could for what we had this year, but I hope w« get more out next season. If there is an increase in numbers next spring, Myers feels he could field a competitive squad. All but one of the LHS golfers are underclassmen. With our top three back next year, we have a good nucleus returning, he said. If we find a fourth man, we could have a good team. Track Everything working out at the right time is how Coach Jean Henrichs describes his Girls Varsity Track Teams second-place finishes at the Lincoln Public Schools Championship and at the District meet held at Fremont May 8. Nine girls in 10 different events, five which are underclassmen, represented Lincoln High at the State meet held in North Platte May 12-13. ''We've improved tremendoulsly, said Henrichs. Also we've not been weakened by injuries or sickness. Coach Henrichs cited Lincoln East, Omaha Central, I have no qualms about the 'I' (Lincoln High's formation this year), but the formation you run depends on the people you have, he said. As far as the city race is concerned. Starr believes the four Lincoln schools will be more evenly matched than in years past. Off-hand, I'd say East is the best, though, he said. 'They have a lot of kids coming back. Starr listed Grand Island as a team on LHS schedule that could be a state contender. As he prepares for his second year at the LHS football reigns. Starr is optimistic on his team's chances for success. I'm really looking forward to fall, he said. I think we have a better chance at a good record than last year. We'll be in pretty good shape. Millard and Scottsbluff as the top teams in state. Peaking at the end of the year, aided by the performances at city and districts was the highlight of the year for Coach Henrichs. Even though the team is losing six seniors, four which qualified for state, Coach Henrichs remains optimistic about next year's team. Having a good junior and sophomore class ' said Henrichs, should give us a good nucleus of girls. Henrichs also added that oncoming junior high girls should give LHS some needed depth. Coach Henrichs appreciates all the help he has received from Assistant Review Coach Vicki Johnson and his two student assistants Dan Brokow and Becky Sharpe. Wih a lack of depth facing the Lincoln High Boys Varsity Track Team throughout the season, they have improved a great deal said Head Coach Harold Scott. Being in a real tough district. Coach Scon doesn't expect anything different than whats already happened. We're in a district were the top five or six teams are right here, said Scott. We could surprise people though. Losing six seniors, the track teams look ahead to next season. We could have some individuals for next years team, said Scott, if they keep improving, but we'll still lack depth. Coach Scott added that all four Lincoln schools will not be receiving any excpetional junior high tracksters. Baseball The LHS Varsity Baseball season probably won't be it's finale with a State championship trophy. The team probably won't see it's record exceed the .500 mark, but the players aren't blaming anyone but themselves. One of the combination of pitching, hitting and fielding, didn't go together, Senior Pitcher Pat Neujahr said. The final score was usually the enemy of the diamondmen. We were always close except for the final score, Junior pitcher Bill Tesch said. Senior Craig Mulligan, agreed with Tesch and Neujahr by saying, We played everyone tough, but the final score was usually in the other teams favor. As the season began to dwindle, so did the attitude of the players, according to Mulligan. The losses dimmed the good attitude we once had, Mulligan said. Neujahr also felt the attitude of the players changed as the season progressed. We started the season with a good attitude, but overall it declined as the season went along, Neujahr said. Mulligan flet the attitude changed because the team didn't live up to some of the goals they had anticipated. We expected far more wins that we actually got, Mulligan said. Girls Tennis The season wasn't highlighted by shutoutouts or victories over rivals, but the LHS Girls Varsity Tennis Team won't be tagged losers, according to Coach Cheryl Henry. The only way we were losers, was by our win-loss record, Henry said. But in all of the other aspects of the game, I wouldn't call my girls losers. Henry cited experience as the biggest contributor to the netters losing season. The season was so short and the girls haven't played for years, as some of their opponents have, Henry said. Senior No. 1 singles player, Eileen Nettleton agreed. I think if we would have had more playing time, we could have done a lot better, Nettleton said. Each meet we improved, everyone learned from past mistakes and tried to better themselves as a player. Henry said. Another downfall for future players is the lack of interest the sport has. according to Henry. Tennis is declining in interest, but since these girls will be back next year, we shodd have enough for a solid team, Henry said. Bright Bold Swimwear in patterns solids for Sun Fun.
