The entire cast sings the Rain Song' during the finale. Pile and Starbuck compete for Lizzie s hand in marriage. 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 girls build crowd enthusiasm 1979-80 PEP CLUB OFFICERS: Sitting—Connie Carlson. Vice President. Standing-Lisa Thaller. Secretary. Mickie Bechtolt. President; Sue Rengstorf. Treasurer.
