Links 1983 Lincoln High School 22nd and J Streets Lincoln, Nebraska 68510 Volume 67 We've Got It We’ve Got It — 1 Buried tradition materializes Devotion to Sacred L causes dire consequences “Where is the sacred L?” This is a question most often significance to the visiting student, the explanation given asked by former students upon returning to Lincoln High for a class reunion. They are dismayed to discover it is currently in storage. According to social studies teacher Alden Johnson, for many years the L graced the floor of the area which was then known as the student lounge, located in the east part of what is now the Media Center. The L was stationed in the middle of the floor and indeed it was a sacred piece of property to students. They danced around, walked around, played around, but no one stepped on the L. On occasion it was necessary to remind visitors and new students of the sacred L’s significance. But of course there were the daring who were most generally visitors from other schools. In the early 1960s, the state wrestling meet was being held at LHS. During the late afternoon break in sessions, visiting students were using the student lounge and cafeteria. A wrestler from another school was informed to not stand on the L. Since the symbolism had no Above—Stationed in front of the building, the traditional I. emblem is a constant reminder of pride.

It resulted in a physical confrontation which called for immediate emergency treatment for the visitor. Following the incident and others which had preceded it, a linked chain was placed around the L as a friendly reminder, not only to visitors but also to our own students that this action was not sanctioned by the administration. Wearing the L is still a symbol of pride. Perhaps it was also a conviction to many past students of Lincoln High. Like fine wine and classical music, LHS has stood the test of time. Its tradition and history is preserved forever. 2 — We’ve Got It, Tradition Left—Though the students of yesteryear are no longer remembered, their accomplishments will be recognized forever. Below'—Tradition unites the Links. Spare time remains scarce Freedom is appreciated by students Students are doing it all, from homework to wild weekend parties. Maybe they don’t get much spare time, but they try to make the most of what they can get. Movies are a very popular form of recreation. The average student sees about two each month. Just sitting back and enjoying a film is good enough for most people, but sophomore Devon Schumacher is interested in making his own pictures. With money earned by doing odd jobs, he has purchased his own studio equipment. He has shot several segments and hopes to have a product ready for viewing soon. He tries to see a movie at least once a week in order to analyze the work of directors and producers. Video games aren't as popular as they were in 1981, but students are still often seen frequenting gaming arcades. The Palace Arcade (across from Lincoln High) gets a lot of patronage from teenagers seeking vicarious thrills through games like Asteroids and Donkey Kong. Junior Dave Jagoda commented, “At the height of my mania, I would spend probably $10 a week, which isn't that much compared to some people I know.” Parties seem to be big events in students' lives. They usually occur on Friday and Saturday nights. Junior Brooke Baker explained, “1 like to go to the games and then go out for pizza with a big group of friends.” Free time sometimes means music. But pop music isn’t the only aspect of interest. Some, like junior Matt Fisher, enjoy classical music. He plays the violin with the Lincoln Youth Symphony and rehearses each week. Church and other community activities also keep stu- dents busy. Senior Wedi-Sue Raines is a member of the United Methodist Youth Council and directs the children’s choir at her church. Seniors Jill Holbert and Amy Fuller are both involved with the Nebraska Council of Youth. Everyone seemed to agree on one thing as junior Kristen Brookes said, “I don’t have enough time to do a lot of the things I’d like to.” It’s all part of the high school experience. 4 — We’ve Got It, Outside Interest Below—Important derision are made each day in the delicatessen and Theresa Nelle is there to help.

The student body This year Lincoln High had the honor of being the largest school in Nebraska. The reason was 1,737 students. Most of them came from the Lincoln area, others from locations such as Maryland, Arkansas, Poland and Venezuela. Registrar Marty Jurgens commented, “I keep a list of all the transfer students for my own use. It’s really very interesting to see all the different places that people come in from.” A wide assortment of backgrounds provided a diversity that isn’t found in many other high schools. Being able to learn about other lifestyles could be considered one of the greatest advantages of having such a large student group. Another is the positive attention that the school has begun to receive. Shedding the image of the rough inner-city school hasn’t been easy, but now people are starting to realize that Lincoln High offers a valuable resource- people. Every school has its own character and this one seems to be typified by a friendly spirit and a willingness to accept and learn about others. Most students came from schools much smaller. For- tunately, trauma has not been the usual result. This year 599 sophomores entered and the majority seemed to adapt well. Many got involved with groups like the pep club and Mummers. There were 569 in each of the other classes. In May 1980 there were only 420 in the graduating class. It’s also in- teresting to note how the school has changed physically to accommodate the increased number of students. The newly remodeled portions of the building, such as the library and many of the classrooms, have helped handle the greater class sizes. Principal Sanford Nelson remarked, “Basically, any- time you can think of a situation where nearly 2,000 people work together and get along as well as we do, you have something that you can be proud of.” 1983 will become known as the year that Lincoln High became the largest school in the state. Maybe biggest doesn't always mean best, but students here like to think so. Above—KillinK up quickly, the north parking lot seldom has spaces left by second period.

The celebration was a chance for peo- ple to get together and show their pride in Lincoln. The original celebration, called “Hog Wild,” began in 1977. The festival was to celebrate the completion of Phase 1 of the 0 Street beautification project, which included the planting of trees and installation of benches. Nancy Unger, a coordinator for Lincolnfest, said that the theme “Bustin' Loose” was chosen because 1982’s festival had “a new look, with a new location and more activities.” Some of the new activities included the grape stomping contest on the first night and the parade that took place the afternoon of October 2. All three days were filled with activities for all ages. The festival started off on a Friday night with a foodfest, the grape stomping contest and a street dance. The second day began with a road race, a Lincoln Jaycee’s-sponsored golf tournament, and opening cere- monies. The rest of the day was filled with square dancing, treasure hunts, and a talent show. More than 130 booths were set up on Centennial Mall, either selling products, or just for display. The festival of the Arts combined with Lincolnfest in 1982 to make the celebration special. The main stage of Pershing Auditorium was where Lincoln’s performing art- ists performed. There was music, dancing, clowns and magic acts going on throughout the 2nd and 3rd. The celebration ended Sunday, October3, with a frisbee tournament, a bike race, and a Renaissance Fair at Union College. John Ludwig served as master of ceremonies Sun- day evening, while musical and dancing groups enter- tained for the grand finale. Lincolnfest was not only a celebration, but also a chance for Lincolnites to gather together and have a good time. It was a bonding of people through pride in their city.

On September 26, in front of the Capitol, a nuclear freeze rally took place. Its purpose was to get people to support the freeze resolution. The crowd was entertained by various music groups such as Charlie Burton and The Blue Grass Crusade. Between groups, speakers talked of what could be done to promote the freeze. Anne Radford, one of the coordinators for the rally, said that the more student support the better. “They’re the ones that will have to live with it,” she said. “It’s their future.” On September 27, 1982, the Lincoln City Council passed the Nuclear Freeze Resolution. The resolution was placed on the city-wide November ballot. Jay Thornton, a senior, felt that the resolution was an important step to a national freeze. “That’s what the people want,” he said, “and by just going through local levels, the government will soon realize that the freeze is what a majority of people want.” But the freeze wasn’t the only issue that affected the students. The beginning of the 1982 school year brought back not only school books and exams, but also controversy between the teachers and their contracts. Ross Tegeler, social studies teacher and board member of the LEA, said that one of the major conflicts that kept the teachers from signing their contracts was the salary. While the pay for a newer teacher rose nine-ten per cent, the teachers that had been with Lincoln Public Schools longer received a four-five per cent increase. Teachers entering the profession see that there is no way for advancement, he said. Another problem was the length of the contract. The average amount of days that teachers work in Nebraska is 175, but LPS teachers are on the job for 190 days. Tegeler said they have received an overwhelming re- sponse from parents, most of it positive. “People realize that teachers are an important part of their children’s lives,” he said. We’ve Got It, Current Issues — 11 Voting opportunities valued Attitudes dictate voter turn-out The first opportunity for many seniors to voice their opinions by voting was in the elections of 1982. The league of Women Voters was at the school September 21 to register 18-year-olds for the November general elections. Senior Darla Borchers was among those who made a commitment to a political party. She thought it was impor- tant for young people to take advantage of their voting privileges. “It makes a good impression on them,” she said. “It makes them a part of it, instead of just letting the older people vote.” She addi-d that she didn’t think teenagers were affected by voting attitudes of their parents. “The kid might think his mom and dad really didn’t care,” Darla said, “and he thinks if he votes, maybe they’ll vote, too.” But Buford Grosscup, social studies instructor, did not necessarily agree. He said studies have shown that 80 per cent of the 18-year-old registered voters do not exercise their voting rights. In his opinion, the problem centers on attitudes of the young voter, rather than those of the parents. “The 18-year-old doesn’t vote because of disenchant- ment, lack of knowledge, and just plain laziness,” he said. “They get the attitude of ‘my vote doesn’t count.’ ” Grosscup praised courses such as Citizenship Issues as I major steps toward changing that outlook. But some students didn't need a class to generate par- ticipation in political affairs. Senior Monica Azure took an active interest in the political spectrum despite being hindered by the age requirement. Unable to vote, she en- couraged her older classmates to take advantage of the privileges they have. “I know too many people who are able to vote and ■! don’t,” Monica said. “I think those people obviously don't care what happens. Anyone who is able to vote should,” she added. “It just I might be their vote that makes a difference.” Above— Rising above the competition.

We’ve Got It, Elections — 13 Changes vary Precedents are set Additions to the school in 1982-’83 were not limited to the 599 new faces in the sophomore class, nor were they restricted to the building itself. One change that affected everyone involved in the Lincoln Public Schools system was the acquisition of a superintendent to replace John Prasch. Dr. Roger Clough took over for the retiring Prasch on October 4. He left Mason City, Iowa to accept the job, but is no stranger to Lincoln. He is happy with Lincoln’s “outstanding educational system.” “If I could pick any community and school system to be part of, Lincoln would be it,” he said (Lincoln High Ad- vocate, Aug. 30, 1982). Administrative changes were also made closer to home, but involved regulations rather than personnel. One of the most widely discussed revisions concerned the attendance policy. No longer were three unexcused absences allowed before a student was removed from class. Under the new system, one unexcused absence was enough to have a student spend time in detention either before or after school (the students had their choice). Senior Craig Riecke wasn’t concerned about the change. “It really doesn’t affect me,” he said. “As long as (at- tendance director) Dr. (Jean) Kleitsch is happy. I’m happy.” Craig will be pleased to learn that Kleitsch is satisfied. “I just think we were ready for a change,” she said. As of first semester 1982, an average of 20 students per week spent time in detention. According to Kleitsch, that figure represents a substantial decrease in last year’s average. Although the faculty had not commented on the policy, Kleitsch said she had received no negative feedback from the parents. “Parents love it,” she said. “I haven’t had one say, ‘no, they can’t go to detention.’ ” Another addition has been made in the attendance area. Lincoln High became the first high school in Nebraska to use a computer as an aid in recording attend- ance. Besides policy and its support systems, an archive room is underway in the Media Center. Although work will probably not be completed for several years, according to media specialist Marj Sawin, items ranging from Pep Club uniforms to old Advocates are being gathered for display. 14 — We’ve Got It, New Things Ltfft —Paying the price for freedom, a student checks into detention with I aurel Volpe.

Dedication, diversity prevail School, community and work demand devotion Although students spend only six to seven hours a day in classes, most will agr« e that school is a major part of their life. For some, dedication to classes goes beyond 2:50 p.m. The majority of students take work home with them each night.

Although she ad- mitted her homework suffered during the course of the production, she said, It's tin- classes and the tirades that are going to tiet me into college, not the plays.” School is a place where many friendships are built. The halls are filled with laughter and chatter. Most students feel that without friends, school would be dull. Junior Patti O'Brien said that her friends are a very im| ortnnt part of her life. Your peers are everything,” she said. They are like your outlet for your problems in school.” Obviously, friends aren't perfect. Students must study and get their assignments done themselves. This year, with the absence of study halls, more students are gathering in the library before school and during lunch, trying to get that last problem done before class. So when students rush home from work or school to get homework done so they can meet a group of friends | after the hallgame, they should remember what every adult advises; “Knjoy it now, these are the best years of your life.” 16 — Student Life We’ve Got Student Life Left—Anticipating a maittcrpiece, chef aidered all alternative .

Jay Thornton con Links staff has pride They’re more than pop journalists Being denied the title of journalist was a problem with which Links staff members had to cope. Most ac- cusers felt that yearbook was for pop journalists, reserved strictly for high school students and simplistic style. But Editor Kevin Fullerton dis- agreed. The senior felt that it’s still a publication, and the effort and work put into it is just as much as the Ad- vocate. “We cover the school like a news- paper does. It’s just more of a maga- zine style,” he said. According to senior Beth Kolb, a person needed to be a mixture of an independent and a team worker to survive on yearbook. Not only did the students need to show individual in- itiative, but they also worked with other staff members to merge all the work into a single publication. Advisor Lee Johnson felt that stu- dents learned the technical side of putting out a publication. They learned layout, writing and organi- zational skills. They also gained a personal knowledge of communicat- ing and getting along with not only the other staff members, but also other people in the school and com- munity. Everyone had their own impression of what was best about the class. Beth felt that the staff was a fun group. “1 liked the wild and cosmic peo- ple,” she said. “The staff meetings usually became crazied riots, but things still got done.” Nine of the 13 staff members went on a journalism trip to Chicago. They returned with a two honorable men- tion awards in a national write-off competition. Jenny Barron placed in yearbook theme and design, and Troy Johnson in yearbook photography. The distributing of the books was the special part of the year for Kevin. He said that all the hard work and effort seemed unappreciated until the students received their yearbooks. “When you see the kids’ faces and hear their excitement about the book, you know it was worth it,” he said.

A consensus of the seventh-period journalists agreed that attitude changes were major fac- tors. Layout Editor Kevin Fullerton assessed the paper as “the best in the city and one of the best in the state.” He attributed the Advocate’s suc- cess to an experienced staff. “Most of the people have a pretty good attitude,” Kevin said. “They’re confident, and they believe that we are good.” Senior Lori Baehr agreed. “I think people have gotten into it,” she said. The feature editor was pleased with the interaction among the 16-member staff. “We get along,” she said. “We can kid around with each other.” However, the camaraderie did not interfere with the production of the 12 issues. Second-year advisor Carolynn Goodwin was happy with individual efforts. “I think every member on staff has a better appreciation of the publica- tion process and what it takes to put an issue together,” she said. Citing commitment, writing and staff interaction as strengths, Good- win hoped next year’s journalists have comparable qualities.

He added, “We have the smallest, yet one of the most active councils in the city of Lincoln, if not in the state of Nebraska.” Five members were chosen from the junior and senior classes. A primary and general election was held in the spring. Sophomore representatives were elected in the fall after they become orientated with the school. The council meets every day during fifth period under the direction of Social Studies teacher Buford Grosscup. The council was involved in many annual events such as the Homecom- ing festivities, class competitions, Sadie Hawkins, Holiday dances, Brown Bag Day, and attending meet- ings of the Student Advisory Board. The council recognized outstanding students and faculty through their “I Make a Difference Award” which is presented to people who do not usually get the credit they deserve. The student council’s officers for 1982-83 were Dave Duffy, president; Jill Johnson, vice-president, Pam Walden, secretary; Jay Thornton, treasurer; and Sandy Scheerger, historian.

This year, the group was larger than ever and even more ac- tive, according to member Kate Barron. “People who are concerned about Lincoln High have come to be in the group.” She continued, “It’s not a select thing like it was last year and I think it’s much better this way. Right now, there are about 10 of us.” The activities of the group focused on the ways that students can begin to understand each other. The mem- bers felt that informing people about cultures other than their own was a way to minimize problems. Kate spoke of the committee’s plans. “We’ve been working with the Teacher’s Equity Committee and Mr. Nelson. We’re trying to initiate something like what was done with the MR program this year,” she ex- plained. “They had presentations to introduce them to everyone so nobody would be afraid. We want to do the same sort of thing for the new students here.” This wasn’t the only activity that the committee planned. They also began to post information about different cultures on the bulletin boards in the halls. Kate also emphasized that the com- mittee is an ongoing organization that will probably exist as long as there is an interest. (First Row)—Bapi Gupta, Diane Portrey.

Steering clear, making progress Committees direct their classes Serving the community and the stu- dents of Lincoln High was the main goal for the senior, junior, and sophomore steering committees. The senior class officers for 1982-83 were President Debra Fiala, Vice- President Jay Thornton, Secretary Becky Pankers, and Treasurer Barb Goodwin. “We’re not limiting ourselves just to a class gift,” commented Debra. Other activities that were sponsored by the committee included the senior awards convocation, the senior luncheon, and a special project which donated $70 to the Battered Shelter. Juniors produce The junior steering committee was responsible for the production of the junior-senior Prom. “It takes a lot of work to make everything run smoothly. I don’t think the students realize how much work is necessary to organize Prom,” said Jackie Jackson. Fund raising must be started early in the year in order to raise the $2000 necessary. This year’s chairpersons were Suzy Hergenrader, prom theme and decorations - chairperson; Julie Pelowski, band chairperson; Renee Smice, date and facilities chairper- son; Jenny Merkel, refreshments and 24—Steering Committees flowers chairperson; and Kim Hein, treasurer. According to sponsor Mary Beth Lehmanowsky, interest in the junior- senior Prom has remained relatively the same each year. Sophomores raise funds The sophomore steering committee spent the year raising money for 1984’s Prom formal. They sold candy and Christmas items to attempt to meet their goal of $500. Committee members participated in Honey Sunday as well as the Great American Smokeout. This year’s officers were Haley Smith, president; Blinda Buettner, vice-president; Kristi Malhoit, secre- tary; and Marie Willadsen, treasurer.

Steering Committees—25 Mummers sociable, serve snacks Drama promotes acceptance I i One of the most popular clubs in school. Mummers (the drama group) once again had an interesting year. According to President David Duffy, this was due to the quality of the members. “The Mummers are great people. They’re just so diverse. Everybody is different,” he said. “They’re fun. They know how to work hard. Also, they’re very accepting.” David added, “They’re all very dramatic.” The membership of Mummers covered all three classes and the club often gave new students a chance to fit in. “One really great thing about Mummers this year is that I think the sophomores felt accepted right away,” David said. “They really felt like part of the club.” David was also pleased with the new style of leadership displayed by the club officers. One of the main goals this year was to loosen the club structure. “We wanted to get everyone in- volved,” he explained. “I always felt that in the past, the members just came to the meetings, sat there and Mummers, (First Row) Bill Stone, Erin Egan, Ruth Leinfellner, Martha Narveson, Denise Mjelde.

The officers made all of the decisions beforehand.” The matter of snacks was another vital aspect of the club. The serving of food items during the meetings was a basic part of the Mummers’ way of life, according to David. “We used to feed people snacks a lot last year,” he said. “We fed them a lot, but this year Mummers was in debt. The jewelry sale pulled us out, though. So, we’ll start feeding people at the meetings again.” David cited popcorn as the Mum- mers’ favorite food. “We buy popcorn in mass quan- tities every day after school and we enjoy popcorn a lot,” he said. “It’s the natural food of the Mummers. That’s the truth.” 26—Mummers Left—Dramatic Mummers demonstrate their capacity for spirit and the smiling face of Erin Egan mirrors the fun.

Mummers—27 Teams tackle topic Debaters well prepared The thought of debating on the sub- ject “Should the United States curtail its sale of arms to foreign countries?” would make most students weak in the knees. The sturdy stock of the debate club, however, was not in- timidated as the two-man teams took on the topic. The average debater must think logically, be able to express himself while remaining organized, have research abilities, and above all be dedicated to succeed in his task, said senior Brad Walker. Twelve individuals, under the guid- ance of Sue Cain, tried to develop these skills as the debate season led them from week to week to different tournaments in and out of Nebraska. The one-man debaters (who debated different topics throughout the season) and the two-man teams of 1983 were more prepared than last year, said Brad. “We did a lot of work before we even started school,” he said. Another difference in the team, ac- cording to Brad, was the addition of two mascots. Buskie the Debate Squirrel and Biff the Debate Alligator kept the team company. Two promising newcomers proved to be juniors David Jagoda and Jenny Ackerman, said Brad, who feels the 1983-84 team should be strong. Above—Making his point with enthusiasm is Lance Schumack.

Speech fears fade Experience gained, anxieties vanish To most people, speech is just a manner of communication. But to Speech team members, it’s some- thing much more. Each member had at least one type of speaking event that they found to suit them (occasionally writing) to memorize and present at tourna- ments. The events were subheaded as speaking, interpretation and drama. Coach Dutch Fichthom felt that the team did very well, and was one of the top teams in the state. He said that an important goal for the year was to finish among Nebraska’s top three teams. Although students gained expe- rience in performing and in writing skills, it was unanimous that the tour- naments were the highlights of being on the team. Going out of town, visiting other schools and meeting new people kept the students’ minds off their main concern—their speeches. Devon Schumacher said that the common fear was that the students would get up in front of the judges and freeze. Or worse yet, the speech wouldn’t go over well. “It’s a terrible feeling to be doing a (humorous interpretation) and no one laughs,” he said. Devon reasoned that some judges felt if they laughed it would distract the students. But Devon added with a grin, “I’d prefer they’d laugh.” Left—Debate Club, (First Row) Shari Lewis.

Speech—29 Art trips abound Art Club focuses on journeys Passing by the fire station on 18th and “Q” streets, one notices a large mural of an old-fashioned steam engine pulled by horses. This feat has been accomplished by the Lincoln High Art Club. The mural was just one of the club’s projects for 1983. “Our main goal this year was to raise money so we could visit out-of- state art colleges,” related Trisha Kitchen. This goal was accomplished by sell- ing items that the club created, such as pottery and greeting cards. The club toured the Kansas City Art I nstitute and the Kansas City Art Museum. Members also planned on a trip to the Colorado Art Institute. The club met on Thursdays after school under the direction of Darrell Hute. Interest dwindled this year, and Jerry Gaines attributed this to the students’ lack of knowledge of the club. “People would enjoy it if they would come more often,” he reflected. Gaines expects his future will in- clude an art career. A few years of study at the Kansas City Art In- stitute, drawing commercial art, and maybe political cartooning are ut- most in his thoughts. According to senior Kevin Fuller- ton, the club was designed to create an appreciation for art in students. “Students have the chance to find what their talents are,” said Kevin. They all have a talent for art— they just have to find it within themselves.” What Fullerton liked most about the meetings were that they were not structured. The club did not elect of- ficers or take attendance. Left—Image, (First Row) Beth Kolb, Judith Keller, Martha Narveson, Troy Bivins, Michelle Vanek, Anne Williams, Kathy Bryant.

Cost forces shift Image faces problems with expense Problems of expense in producing Image magazine made a few changes this year, and possibly for the future also. Traditionally, the copy board picked the stories, poems, and essays, and the art board selected the sub- mitted drawings for the publication. In 1983, however, Image didn’t have a selected art board, but the art club assisted art teacher George Sedlacek in choosing the art and putting together the layout. According to Sedlacek, there were fewer art pieces put in because of the expense of reproducing the art work. He also said that there was a span of only two weeks that students could submit work. This eliminated last- minute sketches that weren’t the stu- dents’ best work. “If they didn’t have it done, it probably wouldn’t have gotten fin- ished anyway,” he said. Another example of the change that cost presented was the possibil- ity of a city-wide publication for the 1983-84 school year. Judy Keller, one of the sponsors of Image, admitted that combining the publications into one would eliminate the high cost that the high schools have to pay. But Keller wasn’t sure that a city- wide publication would be the an- swer. Not only would there be a charge for receiving a copy, she also felt that students enjoy having their own exclusive edition. “I think students enjoy a Lincoln High magazine,” she said. “It can compete as well as any other high school literary magazine.” Senior Beth Kolb felt that Image met a need for students. “Students need to be recognized in areas that are usually overlooked,” she said.

However, there was a group that had fun doing just that. According to Math Club president Bapi Gupta, the group met every two weeks in order to review for upcoming Atlantic-Pacific Tests and math con- tests. “The At-Pac is really a big deal for us,” Bapi said. “We usually do quite well on it.” The meetings were very informal and the members seemed to enjoy the relaxed atmosphere. Boredom wasn’t much of a problem, although Bapi admitted, “It took a little charisma to make it really ex- citing.” Senior Kim Stoakes seemed to agree. “Bapi directed the meetings and managed not to put everyone to sleep.” Kim concluded, “It was pretty fun.” Above—Math C lub,(First Row)Tan Dang.

Lack of posters lamented Lack of publicity and support doesn’t seem to be much of a problem for high school athletics, but other clubs seem to be lacking in these two areas. One such club, according to senior Tim Leever, is Computer Club. “At our last contest, how many peo- ple watched us?” said Tim. “The Big ‘O’. But how many people go to the boys basketball games? They get posters, peppers and even a band.” The approximately 10-member club, under the guidance of Patience Fisher and Bob Tice, seemed to warrant an audience as they con- sistently competed in the upper ranks of the state. In 1982 they placed first in Nebraska and second in the region on the ACSL contest. While a band at a computer contest might seem a little ridiculous, mem- bers of the computer club would like to see a little more support for the club in the future, said Tim. 32—Computer Club Left—With a quick pat on the keyboard, I)an Fiehtner rewards his computer for a job well- done.

Business grows FBLA launched; DECA continues DECA diversifies According to two of its members, DECA was more than just hearing about different areas of marketing. Senior Phyllis Young said that students who joined the club got chances to meet many new people through the various competitions (in- cluding districts, held February 5, and the state conference held March 17-19). Kevin James, senior, liked this aspect of the club the most. “It was just a real neat experience going to the contests,” he said. “If you finish high, it kind of gives you a sense of good feeling.” The only requirement for the club was for each student to be enrolled in the marketing class (which was taught by Bill Myers, DECA spon- sor). Throughout 1982-83, the club engaged in various projects including pooling its members’ money to buy gifts for the children at Cedars Home, selling homecoming carnations and also selling Valentine suckers with messages. There even existed an innercity bowling league consisting of DECA members. Phyllis said it was just one of many examples of the club’s ver- satility. with goals to accomplish an interest in business with enthusiasm. The chapter, called so because they are part of a national group, tried to accomplish all the goals that had been set up. They included money management, developing business leadership, and facilitating the tran- sition from school to work. Vice-president Edee Davis, senior, said that while DECA dealt more with marketing, FBLA centered around business with practice in skills such as shorthand, filing and typing. According to Edee, FBIA benefited students because it helped them prepare for the future. “It’s an organization that gave stu- dents the opportunity to get expe- rience to be ready to enter the world of business,” she said.

Brought together by their mutual interest, the club, which varied in membership from 10 to 20 met about once a month. They decided what oc- cupations they wanted to look into and what facilities they wanted to tour. In 1983, the group toured the prison where physicals are given, the Above—(First Row) Caren Mille, Lisa Sothen. Kris Yates. (Second Row) Sponsor Joan Huffer, Teri Urevich, April Outz, Gail Bates.

According to sponsor Joan Huffer, students weren’t required to be enrolled in Health Occupations class. “Some students can’t be in the class because they’re taking math and science,” she said, “but that’s impor- tant, too.” Junior Teri Urevich felt that the club helped students get a better view of their potential careers. She said that seeing a job from all angles helped students decide if that was really what they wanted to do. According to Teri, some changed their minds about pursuing a certain career, and decided to look into lother health-related areas. But it was also common for a student to work even harder towards his her future health career. 36-Medical Club Left—Displaying the vim put into Girls’ L- Club this year is Brenda Eschenbacher.

Boys add life The Boys’ L-Club also added a new dimension as the giving of a gift to the athletic department was discussed. President Tim Roseberry said the club was bored with its role as a fund- raiser. “We felt like L-Club was not doing anything,” said Tim.

Friendly is motto Comrades welcome newcomers Using Communist lingo for a name doesn’t make Comrades sympathetic to a radical cause. But the nature of the group does mean that diverse political beliefs may exist within it. At any case, the only thing political about Comrades is its name. Presi- dent Brian Carstens made it clear that the only function of the 20- member group was to welcome new students to the school and aid them in their transitions to a new setting. “We’re more of a social group,” the senior asserted. “The most fun for me were all the social activities” which, he said, were diverse as well as numerous. One of the group’s more important projects was helping during the sophomore orientation held February 8. Comrades served refreshments, and its members’ responsible actions (cleaning the cafeteria) earned them—and sponsor Linda Crump- accolades from Principal Sanford Nelson, Kathy Raymer (assistant principal for instruction), a janitor and one of the cooks. The only requirement to join Com- rades was to be a junior or senior. Sophomores, Brian said, were not familiar enough with the school. However, they do have the oppor- tunity to join at the end of their sophomore year and elect officers for the next school year. First-year sponsor Crump added that sophomores weren’t eligible because they were the subjects of tour guides. Crump said her favorite aspect of Comrades was “definitely the stu- dents.” She also liked the fact that the group was entirely self-supportive, allowing its members to “do what we want to do.” Senior Karen Munsterman, how- ever, just thought “it’s a really fun group.” Right—Peeking at Mary Hall's note provides entertainment and produces ambivalent responses from Brenda Spilker.

Senior Diana Portrey said she had improved her play to the point where she could castle (switching the rook with the king at certain points). She said she’ll use the move regularly because “it helps your defense.” Players got the opportunity to challenge a computer, and Diana said only a few people were skillful enough to beat it. “When you play against (it), you have to watch your moves more be- cause it usually doesn’t make mis- takes,” she said. But even the computer didn’t pre- vent members from playing matches with each other. Diana said plans were considered to take their games to other schools and play them against teams there. “They did it one time (went to another school to play), but I think they’ll do it more next year,” she said.

Chess Club—39 Leaders for a day Students experience government County government explored The annual County Government Day was held November 17, 1982, once again giving students an oppor- tunity to experience first-hand how the government works at the local level. Senior Todd Bullock was elected by his peers to shadow Election Com- missioner Elaine Usher. Todd said he had a good time and thought the day was rewarding b3cause he “learned now all of the offices depended on each other.” Jamie Phelps, clerk of the district court-electee, said she would have en- joyed herself more if the actual clerk had been available. After meeting her, the senior said an assistant became the tour guide. Traditionally, the office-holder and their “shadows” eat lunch together, but the clerk didn’t show up for that, either. However, Jaimie was still pleased with her experiences. “You were really exposed to the working envi- ronment,” she said. Other office holders were: Steve Paswaters (county engineer); Walter Williams (county sheriff); Wes Nelson (register of deeds); Gretchen Eisen- trager (civil defense director); Matt Ricchini (treasurer); Kevin Danley (assessor); Brenda Hauman (clerk); Kandalyn Hahn (public defender); Fred Hicks (attorney); Scott Reighter (judge); Karen Munsterman (com- missioner); and Debra Fiala (juvenile court judge). Model UN educates Terrorism was one of the main topics at the 1983 edition of the Nebraska Model United Nations, held February 10-12 at the Univer- sity of Nebraska-Lincoln Student Union. Yehuda Blum, Israeli am- bassador to the UN, gave the keynote address to an estimated audience of 500 delegates. Senior Jake Meyers attended the event as a page, and said he did receive an education. “I learned how difficult it was for the delegates to get their views across,” he said. “It was really chaotic at times.” Jake thought that procedure was probably similar to the real UN parliamentary procedure. Nevertheless, Jake enjoyed himself and would be willing to do it again. Four-year veteran Shari Lewis echoed his sentiments. “It was a lot of fun,” she said. “You get to do something most people don’t get a chance to do.” Above—County Government Day, (First Row) Karen Munsterman, Walter Williams.

Medievals mingle Madrigals guarantee a good show Every now and then students at LHS caught a glimpse of a court jester or a lady-in-waiting. No, Mankind was not entering a time warp back to the Renaissance period. The Mad- rigal Singers, were preparing for a performance. The Madrigals sang songs from Medieval England, and dressed in the proper attire from that era. After many years of researching, director Joe Skutchan organized the first Madrigal group which is the only one of its kind in Lincoln. The Madrigals put on an annual Yuletide Feaste every December, and a Spring Feaste in May. In addition to these performances, the Madrigals also performed at other schools. The medieval outfits added a touch of authenticity to the group. “It would look pretty stupid,” declared Jenny Barron, “to wear swing choir outfits and sing Renais- sance music. Plus, it was a way of getting into music. You became a per- son during that period.” Above—Entertaining people at the Madrigal Feaste are Mike Stumpf. Barb Goodwin, and Dan Lovercheck.

Choir finds variety Latin pieces prevail When a multitude of people raise their voices in song, the results can be glorious. This was demonstrated by Concert Choir. Under the direction of Joe Skutchan, the approximately 80 members of the group met every day during fourth period to practice for the contests and public performances in which they participated. The choir, according to senior Brad Carlson, sang a variety of musical works, including old Latin and Ger- man pieces, as well as pieces from choral work series. Latin pieces, said Brad, were what the choir as a whole sang best. We had good sound and tone quality (on Latin pieces),” said Brad. His personal favorites, however, were the songs from the choral work series, because they proved to be “jaz- zier tunes, and more popular.’ The sound of the choir was as good as last year’s choir, said Brad, but the choir of 1982-83 was a little more dis- organized. Brad said creation of a student di- rector, a much debated issue in the choir, would not have helped this dis- organization. “He or she (a student director) would not get any respect from the students. If he or she got snappy, he or she would be looked down on,” said Brad. The musical was also a much dis- cussed topic with the choir. The tryouts for “The King and I were open to the school, instead of the usual restricted-to-the-choir tryouts. “I always thought tryouts should be just concert choir people,” said Brad. “People who have nothing to do with singing shouldn’t be on stage.

A livelier sound and new steps were two additions, said senior Bruce Brady, as the choir swung to a new director. Barb Ludemann replaced Julie Knowles as director of the choir when Knowles left to be married in Oregon. Ludemann formerly was the voice teacher at Pound Junior High. There were several noticeable dif- ferences between Ludemann and Knowles, said Bruce, but both are good directors. “Mrs. Ludemann does her own choreography, and tends to stick to livelier music,” said Bruce, “while Knowles was our accompanist, and tended to choose more serious music.” The choir sang a combination of different styles, said Bruce. Jazz songs, old songs, medleys from the 1920’s and “modern stuff’ were all part of the choir’s repertoire. Varsity Swing Choir, (First Row) Sarah Baker, Scott Mitchell.

They combined music, dance, and talent to guarantee a good performance every time. The choir’s busy schedule included shows at nursing homes, luncheons, and an occasional school perfor- mance. Keith Hale stated that Sophomore Swing Choir helped him in more ways than just developing his sing- ing talent. “Sophomore Swing Choir helped me with my drama because it taught me stage presence,” he said. The choir housed 18 members who tried out their ninth grade year at their respective junior highs. Sponsor Joe Skutchan selected members ac- cording to talent. Hale added that most members try out for a spot on the varsity swing choir as juniors and seniors. Hale said he would probably try out because he likes to sing, and enjoys working with people.

Mixed Chorus, directed by Joseph Skutchan, ended any poten- tial battle between the sexes and had males and females working together to create a single musical effect. It was open to any sophomore, junior or senior that wanted to learn more about music. “It was for anybody that wanted to sing,” said senior member Vince Cruickshank. According to Vince, the group spent time working on pieces for school con- certs and the All-City Choral Festi- val. They also concentrated on devel- oping sight reading skills. “I think it was a way for sopho- mores and juniors to prepare for Con- cert Choir auditions,” Vince said. Whatever its purpose, it brought the two sexes together in perfect har- mony. Girls’ Soundsations continue Open to any sophomore, junior or senior. Girls’ Chorus provided an op- portunity for any girl to learn about music and singing with a large group. Also under the direction of Barbara Ludemann was Soundsations, the ad- vanced girls' choir. It was considered a more select group. According to Soundsation member Dayne Haynes, “Most of the people in the group were just there to have fun. Music isn’t always the main thing.” She continued, “Mrs. Ludemann is a lot of fun to be around.” Dayna said that the group usually did about four concerts at school and sometimes got a chance to perform at other places, such as junior highs.

Right—Determining the tempo, John Ulrich displays his extroverted personality. Diversity is in tune Orchestra members show interest “It’s a good experience, especially for people who want to go on in the field of music,” said first chair violinist Chris Gordon, when asked about her feelings toward Orchestra. Her responsibilities included tun- ing the orchestra each day and keep- ing the members reasonably quiet and attentive. Chris admitted that the dynamic personalities of the members often made it difficult to keep order. “Sometimes, I thought it was for other kids to adjust to having some- one their own age in a position of authority,” she said. Still, it seemed that Orchestra had no problem getting down to business when it was required. “Rehearsals got pretty intense,” Chris said. “There are quite a few people who work very hard and are very dedicated.” The music Orchestra played was chosen by director John Ulrich. Chris said that the members usually accepted his choices without much comment. “We didn’t argue with him, but usually, if we liked a piece, we work harder to learn it,” said Chris. “If we didn’t like it, we weren’t as enthusi- astic, but we still worked hard.” Aside from orchestral activities, many members were also involved in honor groups such as All-State, Hastings and Wesleyan. Member Pat Gaines explained, “People respect it when you get into one of those selected groups.” He con- tinued, “They realize the extra work it takes to audition and get selected.” Pat summed up his feelings about Orchestra with the remark, “It was a really worthwhile experience.” 48—Orchestra Band gets involved Enthusiastic members provide pep It may make some people think of words such as “aid” and “rubber” but to about 120 students at Lincoln High, the word “band” meant music. Seniors, juniors and sophomores united to make the band one of the largest and most diverse groups in the school. There were no auditions to get into it, but once admitted, the members were divided into concert and sym- phonic bands. It also divided during sporting events into black and red bands. In fact, games are often the only place that the average student expects to see the band, according to Treasurer Becky Pankers, a senior. “Sometimes I get the feeling that people think the band exists only to play at games,” she said. “Marching Band takes a lot of hard work, but the music we play at the basketball games doesn’t take long to work out.” Becky continued. “Actually, it takes up very little of our time.” The band spends rehearsal time working on music for school concerts. There is also a band contest where each of the four Lincoln high schools are graded on their performances. This also requires a lot of work. According to Drum Major Jan Roth, no matter what the activity, it seemed that band members were always willing to throw themselves into it wholeheartedly. “I’m really very proud of our band,” the junior said. “We had a great group of people and I can tell that everyone worked hard.” Left—A chance to perform at the Nebraska State Fair provided a few precious hours free from classes for Marching Band.

Practice pays off . jp Varsity Jazz achieves best sound The varsity jazz band members worked on using their potential to the fullest to receive the best sound possi- ble. Practice was an important part of getting the best sound, so practice they did, whether it was preparing for a performance at the Southwest Business Association or the First Plymouth Church. They also worked on their tech- niques at the Waverly Jazz Festival, held February 14. Senior Kenny Meints said that the band tried to have at least two weeks to prepare for a performance. Some- times, though, they were rushed for time. “We did a pretty good job even when we were given a small amount of time,” he said. The only requirement was that the windplayers had to be in either sym- phonic or concert bands, or Orches- tra. However the rhythm section didn't have to meet that requirement. Kenny felt that the best thing about Jazz Band was playing with a small, select group of musicians. “Every part was important,” he 4 said. “Everyone really counted in the j band as a whole, and when a part was missing it made a difference.” 50—Varsity Jazz Band Left—Instructing the horn section, John Ulrich keeps the music in rhythm Below—The prep jazz hand concentrated on their music, hut had a good time doing it.

The band introduced members to jazz styles, and also gave kids a chance to play jazz who couldn’t be in Varsity Jazz. Lincoln High is unique in the jazz category. According to Band Direc- tor John Ulrich, LHS is the only one of the Lincoln Public Schools that offer both varsity and prep jazz. “In the other schools kids who don't make Varsity Jazz do not get a chance to play. It is one reason our jazz program is so strong year after year,” he said. There were 25 members in the band. Anyone who could play one of the instruments joined with Ulrich's per- mission. The members consisted of sophomores, juniors, and a few seniors. The band met as a class, fourth period, every day. Ulrich said he liked to teach the class, but it had its limits. “I enjoyed the class when the kids were anxious to learn and when they wanted to live out their “rock and roll fantasy” or resist instruction in jazz styles it was a real strain to teach.” Above—Seeming to have swallowed a piece of his horn, C.

This may sound complicated, but a democratic form of deciding routines, and making other decisions is used, said Diane. Sometimes, this demo- cratic system leads to differences in opinion. “People get fed up. Instead of ac- cepting other people; they try to change them instead of changing themselves,” said Diane. “You just have to learn to work with other peo- ple.” Diane hopes that rumors of differ- ences between drill team members this year will not discourage potential Pomalinks of 1983-84. The few differences that do occur do not stand in the way of having fun, as Diane has classified here first year as a Pomalink as a good experience. “I enjoyed it,” said Diane. “I got to meet a lot of people.” Diane said she would like to inform people who would like to be Poma- links of several things.

Corps adds color Flag Corps rejuvenated Students may have noticed a new spirit KrouP around school. This organization is the Flag Corps. Flag Corps, which was discon- tinued in 1981-82 due to lack of inter- est, was revitalized with tremendous success. “I think the students enjoyed watching us,” stated Dee Dee Rose. How did one become a part of the 15- member Corps? According to Rose, they had to learn basic motions, such as marching in formation. Band Director John Ulrich made the selec- tions. Although they received no academ- ic credit, these hard-working girls reaped rewards in many ways. They received 2.5 EC A (extra curricular ac- tivity) points, but most of all they were repaid by the thrill of perfor- ming. “It was fun to perform in front of an audience,” conceded Rose. Flag Corps members were found performing at the State Fair, football games, basketball games, band com- petitions, and an occasional pep rally. The Flag Corps was associated with the band, but they were not spon- sored by Ulrich. The corps was under the direction of staff member Louise Bailey. Bailey was also the drill team sponsor, but she related that she did not mind. “Since both groups perform during similar activities it was easy to keep it all together,” she said. The officers for 1983 were Marsha Lyons, president; Kristi Gish, vice- president; Laurie Allison, secretary; and Dee Dee Rose, treasurer.

The 32nd Annual Homecoming, held on October 8, was a memorable event to many. Unrated Lincoln High doubled the score on third-ranked and previously undefeated Southeast with a victorious 20-10. To initiate the festivities, a Dis- tinguished Alumni assembly was held during fourth period. This year’s alumni were John Campbell, George Sauer, and Terrence McClary. They joined Link fans later that evening at the game to observe the crowning of king and queen during halftime. The royal winners were Tim Roseberry and Janel Ullman. Attendants were Dennis Latcher, Laurie Haas, Les Monroe, Pam Walden, Russ Ehrlich, Sarah Babb, Fred Hicks and Pam Wenzl. The Homecoming court then joined jubilant Links for a victorious celebration at the dance. When asked how he received the news about being chosen.

But it soon became apparent that the all-school play simply demonstrated the morals and themes of human behavior. The first act was all about the problems the human race had to over- come. Set during the Ice Age, Man had troubles in communication, searching for shelter, the use of fire and others. The second act was based on the slogan “Enjoy Yourself.” Man had become self confident, wealthy and lazy. The decisions of the day were the choices between family and pleasure. The act ended with a huge rainstorm, with the Antrobus’ and animals es- caping by boat. The third act showed the pain and suffering of war. Man had to rebuild his life and rise above the horrors of war. Just when the audience was begin- ning to get engrossed in the play, Sabina (Gretchen Eisentrager) reminded them that a play was all it was. The twist in this unique play was that the performers were actors in the play, acting out another production. Sophomore Keith Hale felt that the audience was probably shocked the first time Sabina supposedly forgot her lines, but after they realized that it was a part of the play, they relaxed and enjoyed it. It wasn’t just the plot and theme that were unique, but also the set and scenery. Instead of the usual card- board used for walls, the scenery was made out of wood, to withstand the unusual movement it underwent. Junior Eric Lipsky felt that The Skin Of Our Teeth was entirely dif- ferent from any other play, con- taining many symbols and ideas. He also thought that to get a meaning from the play, it would have had to have been done well, and Lincoln High did just that. 58—All School Play Left—A patient M rs.

Talent brought out A chance to gain experience, have fun What was Joynite? (A) the chance to show off talent; (B) an experience that holds fond memories; (C) the op- portunity to see fellow classmates per- form with their own personal style; or (D) all of the above. Obviously the answer is D, as was the case with Joynite ’83, held on January 20 and 22. According to stage manager Lance Schumack, senior, the show not only gave students the chance to display their talents and entertain the stu- dent body, but also gave them ex- perience in being on stage and lear- ning how a show is put together. Once people passed the audition and were selected for Joynite, they had three to four practices before the show was actually put in order. A week before opening night, dress rehearsals began and the emcees, 60—Joynite junior Patti O’Brien and sophomore Keith Hale, put together their in- troductions. This gave the students a chance to see the other acts, and perfect their own. An assembly was held on January 19 to get more students interested in attending Joynite. The preview showed three acts from the program: Consumer Probe; Substitute Judge; and singing by Michael Hunt and Michelle Speights. The One, the Only, Joynite '83 was more of a title than a theme. Lance said that in the past the theme held a basic idea that was to be followed in the acts, but this year the open theme left the students to be general. “They could be as unique as they wanted to,” he said “There were no restrictions on them whatsoever.” Left—Mixing a little patriotism with soul, Patti O’Brien and Keith Hale introduce Thud and the Putters.

Joynite—61 Teacher enlightens Musical holds several meanings Whenever I feel afraid, I hold my head erect and whistle a happy tune so no one will suspect I’m afraid. ” Sung by Anna to her son, lx uis, these lyrics become the base of the 198J musical. Rodgers and Hammer- stein’s The Kinp and I performed March 10-12. Anna, a well-educated teacher from England, went to Siam to teach the King's wives and children. En- countering more than she bargained for, Anna finds the King self-centered and unadmittingly unsure of himself. Determined to educate her pupils despite frequent quarrels with the king, Anna gained a great amount of respect and love from the children and wives. Not only did she provide the opportunity for education, but she was a portrait of a knowledgable and highly motivated woman. Proving that a woman could be more than just a wife and mother. Anna taught her students relevant principals, fought for respect and justice for slaves, and stood up for her own rights. Junior Jenny Barron, who was a wife of the king, felt that through her expedition Anna introduced many new ideas. “She made the king realize that there was more to live for than just being a king, she said. Another important message brought out was the necessity of bravery. Whether it was needed to begin a new life in a strange land, take on a new role such as the prince was to do, or face the death of the king, the possession of bravery pulled the characters through their hesita- tion and pain. Junior Jordan DeGrazia, who played Prince Chululongkorn, felt that one of the messages of the musical was for people to be sure of themselves. “The story was saying not to be afraid to put out your values and ideas, and not to be afraid to express yourself,” he said. Whether it was the teaching of the lace falling from the sky, the secret lovers, or the dedication that so many held for their king, everyone walked away from the musical with their own ideas of what made this production so memorable. h Above—Meeting the Kind's (Tony Lopez) children that she will teach.

Teach- ers, parents and interested observers have been debating whether schools are doing their jobs. Needless to say, the matter is a con- cern of students and they also have opinions about it Senior Ingrid Olson is very worried about the issue. “The point of public education shouldn't be to mainstream all ideas to a certain person's view,” she said. “It seems like most of what I get is lectures in class—‘read this chapter and then you’ll be tested on Friday.’ That's not learning and that’s not 64 — People thinking.” Ingrid doesn’t think that the situa- tion is totally lost, though. “I don’t want to sound like I’m against everything,” she continued. “Some things are going to have to change, that’s all.” John Smeltzer, also a senior, has a different outlook. The whole idea of learning to work with stubborn people can be a learn- ing experience, he said. “Part of life is learning to put up with things that you don’t like.” For the most part, .John feels positive about his instruc- tors. Still, the system isn’t perfect, and nobody knows this better than the students within it. Ingrid said, “Nobody seems to care about ideas.” An emphasis on testing and rigid standards can also take away the ex- citement of learning. Perhaps not everyone wants to he in school, but that doesn't mean that total regimen- tation has to be the rule. Then again, school has its strong points. It helps students develop socially with their peers and many actually do learn things.

A glance through the 1977 Links showed many students in sweatshirts and other types of casual clothing. In 1983, chances are that there are a few sweatshirts around, but most are pastel-colored, worn with a matching blouse and a string of pearls. “I definitely see a trend towards dressing nicer,” said sophomore Erin Egan. “I usually change clothes three times before I leave the house.” “People don’t think it’s strange if you dress up. Nobody ever asks why you’re wearing a skirt or dress,” she said. Fitting in with a certain type of group may be the reason for all of this, according to Erin. “Often, people dress in a certain way so that they fit into a particular social group, like preppies or new- wave.” Whether the motive is social iden- tity or just looking nice, the trend seems to be here for a while.

Yes, but not of the typical bouncing baby boy or girl. Instead the adoptee was Mrs. Emma Price, resident of the lone house on the southwest corner of the Oval. Price was adopted by the student council after the idea of involving her in LHS activities was introduced by Virgil Horne of PSAB. Masterminding the LHS end of the adoption was junior Tony Lopez, who became her escort to several school- related activities, and presented her with a sweatshirt emblazoned with Honorable Member of Lincoln High School.” “She’s kind of us,” said Lopez.

Graduation is a time of mixed emo- tions for many seniors. With 13 years of school behind them they venture out into the world. Endless future possibilities are tossed about in the dark recesses of their minds. “I’m happy, yet I’m also sad,” said Jacki Stacy. Jacki conceded she is glad to be graduating from high school, but she will miss friends, activities, and teachers. For Tim Malone school ends in the middle of May. Tim joined the National Guard and goes to boot camp in Georgia for three months. He has set his sights on attending Southeast Community College upon his return. “I would rather graduate with my class and all my friends and wait until after graduation to go to Georgia,” admitted Tim. “I’m ready to go out and be on my own,” responded Kevin Danley. Kevin said he enjoyed high school. He met many friendly people, and plans on returning to athletic compe- titions next year. Katie Barron is also looking for- ward to graduation. “I’m excited about the transitions I will encounter after I graduate, and also about con- tinuing my education in a different atmosphere,” she said.

Thomas Christie tries to get back to a serious class discussion. Upon entering high school, stu- dents quickly realize there are certain expectations they must fulfill. First and foremost are the graduation requirements. Students are expected to attain a minimum of 150 credit points which are required for graduation. According to senior Debra Fiala, the graduation requirements are too steep. “The large number of require- ments make it difficult to get the elec- tives you need for college. Although, some requirements are good. “Take physical education for instance. A semester is required. You could take a semester of British Literature instead!” she said. Faculty member Curt Ratliff did not agree. “The requirements as they are stated seem to encompass many of the skills and knowledge bases necessary for functioning in society.” These classes are required so stu- dents can experience a wide range of courses and find a subject that inter- ests them. Faculty member Carolynn Goodwin agreed. There’s nothing wrong with the graduation require- ments,” she said, “but there just isn’t enough time in three years for stu- dents to enroll in all the classes they need, plus the ones they desire to take.” Michael Bone Teresa Bowen Ronald Brindley Darren Brock Phillip Brooks Tony Brown Jenelle Bruce Lori Buck Bonnie Burchfield Kenneth Buresh Donna Butterfield Kenneth Campbell Paul Campbell Amy Carver Ruth Chamberlain Benjamin Church Leonard Clark Robert Cookus Tony Crum Luis Cruz David Cuddeford Matthew Davis Kim Debus David Delgado Martin-81 Below—Checking out the nuclear disurment demonstration.

The experience is also worthwhile in the credit department. Students who take classes at UN-L receive full college credit which can be applied to their degree and requirements when they become full-time students.

Why is this? Is a car as much an extension of one’s per- sonality as the clothes one wears or the books one reads. “Less today than it was 10 years ago.’’ said Gene Theer, business manager of DuTeau Chevrolet. “Reality and practicality come into play more today than personality.” Refuting this argument is senior Lynda Lancaster, proud owner of a 1974 blue Volvo. “I guess my car is me,” said Lynda. The car has gone through no phys- ical changes to be adapted to Lynda’s personality, but she feels people can identify it as hers by the pom-pons, the food sacks and the books stacked inside. “People say to me, ‘Yeah, I can see you driying a car like that!” said Lynda. Senior Marcia Rexilius agreed. “It matches her personality. She dresses preppy and the car is preppy.” Above—Getting to know Dannv Moore's car is like getting to know Danny. Dear Diary. ..

I felt superior to everyone especially the sophomores. I mean, bow can you not feel superior to a group of people who wear smiley face sweatshirts and rainbow barettes in order to make a serious statement about the meaning of life? Anyway, classes seem all right so far, except for chemistry. Mrs. Sprackling told us that we’re having a test tomorrow . I think she said something about atomic mass units and strawberry Jcll-O. I still haven’t quite got it figured out yet. Relating to her is going to be difficult. I thought maybe we could meet on neutral ground, discuss the latest issue of Clamour. or something, but she wasn’t real receptive. The new attendence policy is kind of hard to get used to.

I'm a person who refuses to pour her own brother a glass of milk. I'm also suspicious of fraternity scholarships that accept applications from girls and require a photograph with every entry. I bet they don't even really give out any money. They probably pick out the best looking girls and invite them to house parties. I've really been annoyed lately by colleges that refuse to stop sending me information. Must I be blunt? Must I send a letter telling a certain institution exactly why I don't want to go to school in Central Iowa? Something like “I'll never attend your college because all of my friends would forget of my existence. Also. I do 90—Sieng plea. I don't think any of us had an overriding desire to die while sitting at our desks figuring out whether King Alfred and the Danish invasions was a historical event or a rock group. However, being an especially well-trained group, we sat silently as smoke engulfed us. finally, between choking coughs, the teacher dismissed us. though l m not sure that she was quite convinced that without five bells that there really truly could be a fire.

I've finally reached the end of a long week of final exams. My creative imagination has been taxed to its limits. You can't go through the public education system without learning to fake your way through any situation. The history final was fairly interesting. One question involved the feelings of 1). S. citizens about the annexation of Florida. As a response. I wrote an essay about how excited everyone was to have a place to hold the Orange Bowl game. Chemistry was the most challenging, that's because I got behind on the first day of class and haven't caught up since. It took me four months to figure out that “radicals” in chemistry arc not extremely left-wing political activitist. Another problem was created by the teacher reading the bulletin before starting the lecture. I could never figure out when the bulletin ended and the lesson began. Thus. I ended up taking notes on the lunch menu and pep club meetings. So. as you probably guess, my answers to the test questions were't always quite conventional. When asked to state Avogadro’s taw. I responded “bar cookies”. I explained isomerism by writing “mandatory meeting after school on Tuesday.” If you can't be there, notify an officer.” January 28. 1983 Dear Diary. The new lunch schedule is really random. I've got “C lunch.” That means I eat at about 12:40. But I've heard stories about kids who've got Q962 lunch. It's about 9:30 at night by the time they get to eat.

I thought disloyal things, wishing for a four wheel drive pickup. When I arrived at school, there were very few cars in the parking lot. My first period class contained only 8' people. ( I he hoy next to me kept falling asleep.) The instructor didn’t even attempt to conduct a class. We sat around telling jokes and hoping for the heat to turn on. I though about Superintendent Clough being at home in bed with a cup of hot chocolate. Each class followed that same pattern until about 11:00. The tyrant had relented and announced our freedom.

Well, we had another sound announcement today during 92-Strahan Label is misleading Above—Displaying Lincoln High's pre- reputation period, the photos trace the school's beginnings. The reputation of Lincoln High was in the spotlight throughout the year, both in the school and in the community. Most LHS students felt that the school was considered tough and vio- lent. According to junior Susan Steider, it was a typical stereotype that is pressed upon the school because of its diversity. “It’s the oldest and largest school,” she said, and it’s such a melting pot of people. We just need to let others know that we’re not all in gang fights.” Nancy Campbell, a senior at Lin- coln Southeast, said that Lincoln High’s reputation might have been lowered more by the racial conflict that sparked so much controversy in the fall. But, she added, the entire school shouldn’t be put down because of a secluded incident. “Certain people get singled out and then their reputation sticks out to represent the school’s” she said.

Why go to the expense and bother? I hate dances in general, but I figured that I could manage one more year of it. The theme was Moonlight and Roses. I should have taken it as an omen (I'm allergic to roses). Searching for the right dress was an ordeal in itself. My mother kept trying to force me into laccy white confections that tended to make me look like a horse wearing a tablecloth. In turn, my mom wasn't pleased with my choice of a low-cut. red sequined gown with a slit up to thigh level. To end the stalemate. I threatened to wear a pair of sweats. We soon reached a compromise. The fatal evening arrived. My date showed up in a tux. looking like he sincerely wished he could get away with wearing a sweatshirt and a pair of l.evi‘s. The minute I opened the door, he started apologizing for accidentally dropping my corsage and shutting it in the car door. I grudgingly forgave him and we set out for our destination. He got pretty mad at me when I refused to enter Taco Inn dressed in an evening gown. Listen.” I said “the concepts of a Deluxe Burrito and gray chiffon just don’t quite fit together for me. “What do you mean? he asked. “We've been going out for five months and you’ve never complained about Taco Inn before.

I'm not ready for the real w orld and it's certainly not prepared to deal with me. As I walked across the stage to receive my diploma. I suddenly realized that I never did find the fourth floor of LHS. I had to take Biology independent study, sitting outside on the front steps. I also lamented the fact that I never got to meet that mysterious and charismatic figure. Wes the Electrician. When I got back to my scat. I examined the precious piece of paper, so important to my new freedom. I noticed that my name was spelled wrong. I think the yearbook staff had something to do with it. Anyway, right now I have the feeling that I'm leaving a lot of things unfinished, but it's too late now. I have to go on to college and learn about student unions and doing my own laundry. I feel like starting over again. I'd like to start with Kindergarden and work my way up. I remember cut and paste projects with great fondness. It was great having the teacher read neat stories about baby ducks. However, since I have reached the advanced age of 17.1 knew I'd look a bit out of place sitting on the floor among 20 six-year-olds, playing with alphabet blocks. I guess I shouldn't panic. I've got the whole summer to get a tan and contemplate life. Three months of soap operas and Tab await me. Life is good.

Butler-97 Films exploit teens Whether they explored or exploited the American teenager, movies such as “Porky’s”, “The Last American Virgin” and “Fast Times at Ridge- mont High were undeniably popular in 1982. These films often portray middle class high school students who are preoccupied with sex and drugs. The soundtracks are usually made up of music by popular performers like Jackson Browne and the Go-Gos. Producers use this formula to make movies that they believe will appeal to young people, who make up the majority of the movie-going public. The formula usually works, but box office receipts don’t tell the whole story. The typical high school stu- dents who see the films often have mixed feelings about them. Senior Tara Scott explained, “I saw “Porky’s” and Fast Times”. They were both pretty funny, but I didn’t think they were very realistic. The people didn’t act like normal teenag- ers.” She also seemed concerned about the effect on the junior high students who see the movies. T think a lot of people take them too seriously,” she said.

Sometimes they wondered if they were being compared to their older siblings. Attending the same high school as an older brother or sister can have both negative and positive results. Pat Gaines, a sophomore, said peo- ple have asked him if he was going to be involved in Joynite since his senior brother Jerry was involved last year. Although Pat didn’t partic- ipate in Joynite ’83, he does share a few of the same interests as Jerry, but basically they have different activities in which they partake. Junior Erica Broman felt that her parents might expect her grades to be like her older sister (Beth who gradu- ated in 1982). Looking and acting alike might be a strong family trait, but sometimes it was hard to banish once in school. Sophomore Jenny Thornton said that attending the same school as her senior brother Jay, usually wasn't any problem. But, she added, once in a while she’d like to make her own impression. “Sometimes people can’t get over that we’re related,” she said, “and they go on and on about it.” Above—Listening only to the teacher.

A program called “Building People with People” may conjure visions of a bizarre new construction course. Actually, the purpose of the one-day, city-wide workshop is intended to teach interested high school students how to help each other by battling stereotypes. The event was held on December 10 at the Nebraska Center for Continu- ing Education. The participants were excused from classes all day in order to attend. Junior Kandalyn Hahn, who attended the workshop with several other Lincoln High students, explained the program format. “It opened with a series of skits that brought up some points about the different ways that people dis- criminate against each other.” she said. “Then we each got to choose three small group sessions. You could learn about women’s changing roles, language, racial relationships and whatever.” Senior Jake Myers, who was also involved, said that he genuinely enjoyed the program. “The session I liked the most was all about appreciating differences among people,” he said. “It was really a neat experience because there were so many different people.” He also said that he thought that the experience was a beneficial one that could help a lot of people. “It brought up things that some people don’t think about often,” Jake said. “They’d sometimes rather ignore problems, instead of facing them.” Clifford Abele Maria Acosta Carol Adams Teresa Adler Khonda Alderman Angie Alexander Ijsa Allison Alan Amelinckx Kee Amen Jeff Amos Cindy Anderson Mickey Andrews Matt Anson Khonda Archuleta Tami Atkins l uDonna Atkinson Sonya Aupperle Bill Bachman Robert Bailey Matt Ballus Norman Barnes Tammy Barry Craig Bartels Pam Bartels Trevor Bassen Linda Bates Debi Bauer Dawn Beebe Brent Beech Amy Beech am Ron Beedle Karen Beem Linda Belt Sarah Benorden Kathy Bert well Susan Bitenieks Bob Blacketer Gwen Blohm Kathy Boehmer Lisa Bolinger Bolinger-109 Vanessa Bolin Tom Bonnett Audru Borgman Becky Boswell tlreg Bothe Heather Botsford Diane Boucher Tina Bourne Joelle Bragg Matt Brandt Cheryl Branigan Brenda Brehm David Brock Donny Brookhouaer Nora Bn wn Carrie Brownyard Tammy Bruce Dan Buell Blinda Buettner Annie Bulling Jennifer Bundy Kevin Burbuch Kris Burke Julia Burkey Troy Burkey Chris Burner Robert Butler Shari Buttweiler Beth Byrns Tony Cameron l«imta Campbell Mike ('annafax Marlon Carcamo Salvador Carcamo Amy Carlson Jeanette Carlson 110-Bolin Below—The hand room provides the perfect atmosphere for Charles Frederick as he expands his literary know ledge.

Among these there are many who are particularly strong in aca- demics, and they are gifted students. The Lincoln Public Schools defines “gifted” as having an IQ above 130, as measured by individual IQ tests. To meet the needs of these students, there are programs for the gifted in the schools.

According to Gifted Coordinator John Dudley, LHS provides many options for gifted students. These include taking classes at advanced levels or at UN-L, or working w'ith a gifted adult in an area of interest. The gifted program allowed sophomore Paul Haar to take high school courses, such as Pre-Calculus, as a freshman at Lefler Junior High. Haar also took many advanced classes, such as Calculus and Ameri- can Literature as a sophomore. In 1984, Haar plans to take classes at UN-L , and he hopes he “doesn’t get bored with high school.” Knsti Malhoit Troy Malone Kirk Malzer Amy Marquez Cesar Murtinez Michelle Martinez Tim Masters Paul Mutusiak Michelle Mauls by Albert Maxey Jenny Maxson Maura Mclsiughlin David Memts Melisa Merlin Jeff Merriman Rhonda Metcalf Theresa Meyer Ksmeraida Meza Fernando Meza la ticia Meza Uriel Meza Scott Mickey Hemesh Midha John Miller Ken Miller Melissa Miller Mike Miller Roby Miller Russ Miller TYacy Mitchell Jay Moats Jim Morgan Mike Morris Susan Morris Tracy Morris Jeff Morrow Morrow-115 Sheila Moss James Muhle Jerri Mullendore Larry Murgas Lisa Murray l aura Murry lairi Myers Connie Nagorski Naomy Nagy Mark Neal William Neal l,aura Neemann Diane Nelson Gerald Nelson Mary Nemec Hoat Nguyen Hung Nguyen Lien Nguyen Nhung Nguyen Phong Nguyen l)ebb Nichols Kon Nichols Debbie O'Connor Mary Ohlschwag Denise Olsen Kim Ono Stefanie Ortiz Terry Ott Sopheap Ouk Teresa Overholt Lisa Paffenberger Greg Palmer Bonnie Pape Jeff Parrish Mary Parsons Tammy Parsons Chris Patt Diane Paulick Tracey Paulsen John Payne Natalie Pederson Gregg Peterson Jill Peterson Mike Peterson Donn Petitt Melissa Pettit Vu Pham Mark Phares Stacy Phelps David Phillips Diane Phillips Julie Phillips Sokhom Pich Johnna Pierce John Pierson Mary Piteock Debbie I'lacek Roger Poe Becky Polivka Valerie Polivka Steve Pompeo Dennis Plachy Brian Potter Myra Powell Ron Przybylski Sam Pulec Greg Pulse Bob Pytko Lynda (Juarells Jeff Randall Don Rangel Joe Rangel 116-Moss I Top—Receiving anonymous notes from secret admirers is an everyday event for Tammy Schriner.

It also becomes an express to a certain amount of freedom. While teens without a license are dependent on their parents or friends for rides, a person that can drive has the freedom of going more places when convenient to them. Sophomore Brent Collier felt that it is an advantage to drive when he goes out with his friends. He said that he has more influence on where and when they went, than if someone else drove. Once in a while driving all the time becomes a hassle. Junior Jason Becker said he rarely minds driving his friends around, but sometimes he wishes there were less people to be dropped off. “Sometimes people expect me to take them home,” he said, “and I feel obligated to take the friends they’re with home, also.” Jason also said that driving gave him more freedom. Before he received his license, he said he had to either walk or ride his bike. But junior Patti O’Brien got a car in April 1982, she couldn’t use it because it wasn’t insured. So she still had to rely on her parents and friends for rides. “I have dependable friends that don’t mind taking me home,” she said. “I used to have to mooch for rides, and I hated that. Once I got my license, though, I thought that things would be easier, but I guess there are always complications.” Above—In an attempt to escape the com plexity of life.

If the spectators’ bleachers are scanned at sports contests, students might see such teachers as Molly Spinar, Jill and Terrel Hanshew, and Charles Jones. “It is important to attend these events because in this way, one has a better overall view of the school,” Spinar said. “Also, I think the stu- dents appreciate it when you show an interest in their activities.” Students do appreciate it when teachers acknowledge their partici- pation in events, as expressed by senior Janel Ullman. “It makes me feel proud to be on drill team when my teachers tell me I did a good job at last night’s game. That is what per- forming is all about.” Jill Hanshew agreed with Spinar. “To me it’s nice to see students in a different environment and to support them in what they’re doing.” Charles Jones enjoys attending Lincoln High functions and feels he can attribute this to his active partic- ipation when he was in high school. Jones was a member of the basket- ball team as a student and says he enjoys observing basketball games at Lincoln High. Staff members are as much a part of Lincoln High as the students. So, for teachers as well as students, school does not always end after the final bell at 2:50. Above—Beep! Beep! Kathy Raymer, if you're in the building, please report to the office.

When it came to signing up for a cer- tain class, many teachers found that their reputations could influence students. Chemistry teacher, LeEtta Sprac- kling, said that although her notabil- ity is one of a tough instructor, she felt that the students who are dedi- cated enough would still take the course, if for no other reason than just the challenge. A reputation for being a tough teacher scared a few students off, but according to English teacher Judy Keller, some came running back for more. “This year I had a lot of positive feedback from students that were glad I made them work so hard,” she said. Not all teachers were branded as tough, though. Social studies teacher Jim Stork felt that he was known for his “simplicity in terms of flexibil- ity,” although the subject wasn’t as easy. Stork felt that each student has a certain learning style, and when that is fitted with the same teaching style, it makes it easier for them to learn. But, he added, if students were to limit themselves to teachers with one certain style, they would have trouble later on in life because they would lack important flexibility skills. Above—Aid for the bewildered is provided by an obliging LeEtta Sprackling.

In fact, sheenrolledinautotune- ed by the Equal Rights Amendment did not die with the proposal on June 30, 1982. Despite its rejection, ERA has en- couraged young people nationwide to take it upon themselves to end sex discrimination and sex-role stereo- typing. This is exactly what some students did. Senior MikeGiddensenrolled in the Nutrition and Foods course offered by the home economics department. Although he admitted he took the class due to a lack of alternatives, Mike said he thought the stereotype 126 — Academics women was no longer applicable. He added that he originally believed the stereotype, hut has since changed his mind. “It’s really a fun class,” Mike said, learning how to cook is really valuable for a guy to know.” Since stereotypes work two ways, there are also classes that society seems to favor for the male gender. Girls are encouraged to bypass oppor- tunities in auto mechanics in favor of learning to sew. But sophomore Cindy Hansen is not ready to be domesticated, and her family doesn’t push her in that direc- up at the urging of her father, an auto mechanic. He thought it would be good for me,” she said. Cindy thought the course was of special value to females. “If they’re having car trouble and don’t know about cars, they’ll end up having to take it to a shop and pay, when they could have done it them- selves,” she said. If Cindy and Mike can convey their feelings to their peers, Lincoln High will never become a battleground for the war between the sexes.” We’ve Got — Academics Left—Meeting the challenge of new math.

With the requirement of 20 hours, many students volunteered in more than one area. Several took the opportunity to work on the Bob Kerrey for Governor campaign dur- ing the fall. Others either worked for the Salvation Army during the Christmas season, or found other places of interest to them. Lori Baehr, senior, worked on the Kerrey campaign and also at the Salvation Army. She said that since most seniors were already involved with other activities, it was some- times hard to fit in the 20 hours. But she also felt that it was worth the extra effort. Learning how cam- paigns run and meeting the people kept her interested in her volunteer- ing. Some seniors gained more than just points by volunteering. Senior Kelli Kellogg said she was glad she volun- teered for the Kerrey campaign. Not only did she gain more appreciation for politics, but she also felt she had added something to the elections. “I wasn’t old enough to vote,” she said, “so volunteering made me feel like I was contributing something to the elections.” Kelli was sure that she’d be willing to volunteer again, even if she wasn’t required to do so for a class. “I enjoyed it so much,” she said. “I really liked being involved.” Both Kelli and Lori felt that people should take an active role in things that concern them. Lori also thought that people vol- unteer because campaigns and or- ganizations could always use help and it would be great to see people willing to share their time. 128—Academics Talk away Speakers educate The Social Studies Monthly Speak- er Series instituted this year was an attempt to add special extras to the department, according to depart- ment head Ross Tegeler. “It’s a good, positive education thing we’re doing for the students,’ he said. The program brings in people out- side the school in order to expose social studies students to varied ideas and interests. Guests that have ad- dressed the students include the Secretary of the Hungarian Com- munist Youth Party, and Joe Swan- son, a local Socialist politician who made a bid for the governor’s office in last November’s election. Tegeler was pleased with student reactions. “Everybody thinks it’s kind of nice to get out of the classroom and away from the textbooks for a while,” he said. It’s likely that the program will con- tinue and Tegeler thought a lot could be done with the concept to expand it. He planned on at least one speaker each month. “I’m excited about it,” he said. “I think that the possibilities are almost limitless.” Left—Wonder never ceased for Scott Rooney, Trov Bivins and Pat Leaplev while visiting Morrill Hall.

Academics—129 Racial unity possible Students look forward to ending prejudice The unity of racial students was broken up and put into the spotlight the week of October 18. Because of a fight that started across “J” Street at the video arcade, a dispute arose between seven Vietnamese and white students. A sense of excitement and anxiety built among the rest of the students. They not only wondered what would happen next, but also how such an injustice came about. On October 22, Principal Sanford Nelson called a meeting for the stu- dent body to relay the facts about the fighting. He also met with the Stu- dent Equity Board and together they decided to have board members speak with classes about the problems of Vietnamese and other minorities and dispel any myths or stereotypes about them. Equity Board member Aneesah Ab- dullah said that the board’s goal wasn’t just to stop prejudice against Vietnamese students, but all stu- dents. The spotlight on the racial pro- blems between the Vietnamese and whites only intensified their goal, she said. “General prejudice can be stopped by simple knowledge about different countries and races,” said Aneesah. The conflict not only hurt people’s feelings and pride, but also set the school back in building a good reputa- tion. Vice Principal Dr. Charles Jones felt that pre-formed negative feelings toward Lincoln High were reinforced by the racial conflict. Because it is the only Lincoln school with such a high racial diversity, other people assume there are constant fights and gang- wars between nationalities, he said. But Jones also thought that good feelings were strengthened, and pos- sibly even increased the vocal ap- proval of the school. Above—For a native of Poland, such as Tomaz Halda.

Both escaped countries subjected to Soviet aggression, and each aided their respective causes by placing themselves in danger. Krzysztof hails from Bielawa, Po- land, and was a member—along with 25 million others—of the now-out- lawed Solidarity labor union. Al- though he has heard from his par- ents and younger brother, he doesn’t believe he’ll ever go back. “Every day, many people are arrested,” he said. “If I went back, they would throw me in jail.” Nasrat, a Freedom Fighter from Afghanistan, shared Krzysztofs sen- timents and his hatred of Com- munism. The guerilla group to which he belonged plotted an attack against the Soviet embassy in August, 1981. Nasrat was unable to assist his com- rades, as on the day preceding the attack he escaped to Pakistan. But his desire to strike against the Soviets still burns. Both he and Krzysztof plan on join- ing the armed forces after high school. “As long as there is blood in our bodies, we will not be Communists,” Nasrat vowed. Our children will fight against the Russian soldiers.” Left—Speaking before the student body the afternoon of October 22. Principal Sanford Nelson explains the facts regarding the events of the week.

Below right—Campaigning and drafting are areas to which Eric Salem devoted hours of time. Sophomore surprises Youth gains county seat Appearances can be deceiving. Eric Salem seems to be an average high school sophomore, maybe just a bit less confused-looking than most. Ac- tually, he’s an elected public official and has appeared on television programs, including the Johnny Car- son Show and That’s Incredible. Eric became a member of the Lan- caster County Weed Control Author- ity in the election held November 2. He attributes his victory to the publicity he received because of his age and his own campaign efforts. “I pretty much coordinated my own campaign,” he explained. “I set up speaking engagements and all that. I was also the treasurer of my commit- tee. I wrote checks and all that good stuff.” He also said that the teenaged cam- paign workers were generally a lot more helpful than the adults. “My favorite quote has always been ‘kids are the untapped resource of politics,” he said. “I found that some- thing that two adults could complete in two days, you could get one kid to do in a half an hour. It’s enthusiasm.” Although Eric has entered the local political scene with success, he has no interest in politics at the student body level because of what he calls its lack of power. “Usually, these groups support nice causes, like raising food and all that, but they don’t really do anything for the students,” he said. “I really don’t think that student councils exist for any reason other than keeping the kids quiet.” Even though he sees for himself a political future, Eric didn’t think it would happen in college. “For four or five years I’m not going to do anything political, except for voting.” 132—Academics Computers will prevail Senior says technology holds key to future According to senior Craig Riecke, 80 per cent of the nation will work directly or indirectly with computers by the year 2000. This is good news to students because Lincoln High has the most advanced computer pro- gram of any high school in Lincoln. Craig felt that the computer pro- gram offered is excellent, and should be the model for future computer science programs in other schools. Computers at LHS got their start about five years ago by means of a TTY (a type of computer with a keyboard) in the office. A year later, a computer club was organized. The new computers arrived three years ago, and computer classes became part of the school’s curriculum. “Computer Club has really grown this year. Last year it was just a small group, and it didn’t do much,” Craig said. “The active membership has in- creased fourfold, and the meetings are fairly structured and run effi- ciently.” Craig became interested in com- puters about four years ago at Good- rich Junior High. He has used his knowledge to place fourth in a three- state region in the American Com- puter Science Test. Computers will be the basis for technology in the near future. Stu- dents have the option of getting a head start by enrolling in computer classes. The industrial printing shop has a computer called the Compugraphic machine, which does all the type set- ting and printing for the student. Computers are designed to do work fast and efficiently, which makes life for humans less stressful. Above left—Using the computers are important aspects of each day for Craig Riecke.

Academics—133 It’s all in the family Relationships incite amusing situations Contrary to popular belief, school isn’t always an escape from home. In 1983, Lincoln High represented most family combinations, from siblings to spouses. Family feuds could spell trouble for Terrel and Jill Hanshew, hus- bandwife foreign language instruc- tors, and junior Aneesah Abdullah practiced care in school affairs since mothermath teacher Khadijah was ever near. But senior Barb Goodwin wasn’t pressured by sister Carolynn, Eng- lish teacher. “We have a very good rela- tionship,” Barb joked. “I hate her, and she hates me.” Actually, Barb’s time was usually spent being amused by her peers, rather than antagonistic to her sister. “It’s funny to watch people’s reac- tions when they find out we’re sisters,” she said. “They realize we’re not Siamese twins anymore. They thought it was just a coincidence that we have the same last name, the same house, the same parents . . .” But Barb never had to take her sister for a class. Senior Jon Fisher wasn’t granted a similar reprieve, and had to enroll in the Calculus course taught by his mother. Patience Fisher said having Jon in class made for some interesting situations. “The first time he raised his hand and addressed me as ‘Mother Dear’ it was quite a shock,” she said. “But now I’m used to it.” No special rules were set up for Jon, Fisher said, but there were also no exceptions to standard ones. “I have to be to school on time or she Above right—Finding out first-hand that Mother knows best is Jon Fisher.

However, mother and son arrived at an agreement on the attendance issue. “We made a pact in his class that I could not be tardy either, and if I were,” Fisher said, “every student would have a tardy erased from the record.” Neither Jon nor brother Matt (a junior) were singled out by their mother during the school day. “I don’t treat them any different than any other student,” Fisher said. “They go their ways and I go mine.” 134—Academics Expertise recognized Women gather rewards through talents In a world dominated by men, two women have attained recognition through their special talents. These students are Deb Omel and Kitty Hendersen. Deb has been drawing ever since she could hold a pencil. The senior realized she had talent about the time she started school. Deb has entered her work in county fairs, The Nebraska State Fair, Scholastic Art Competition, and the Nebraskaland Days Amateur Art Show. She has won countless ribbons for first, second, and third places as well as grand prizes and honorable mentions. Deb uses her talent as a part-time free-lance artist for Miller and Paine. She also worked on a mural at the downtown fur station (which is separate from the Art Club project). Deb finds art as a good way to ex- press her ideas and emotions. She added, “My career goal is to become a professional Western fine artist.” Another talented student is junior Kitty Hendersen. Kitty is a weight lifter. When she was in junior high she signed up for a body conditioning class, which was designed mainly for boys. “In most sports you’re out to im- press others, but with weight lifting you impress yourself because of the long hours, time, and energy that you put in the sport,” she said. When Kitty was training for the state Competition Deadlift (in which she placed first by lifting 315 lbs.) she lifted four times a week between January and May for three hours a day. Kitty felt the sport has been dominated by men, but women are becoming recognized for their talents. Women are gaining recognition in today’s world, and Kitty and Deb are examples of using determination as a means of achieving their goals.

Education made easy Music department harmonizes The major goal for the music department was to continue to strive for excellence in singing, music and teaching, said chairperson Joe Skutchan. A new class, mixed chorus, was added this year. The only require- ment was an interest in singing. There weren’t tryouts or restrictions because of the student’s grade or sex. Barbara Ludemann, the new direc- tor, was another change for the music department. She directed the girls and boys chorus, Soundsation, and Varsity Swing Choir. Marliyn Gor- don was added as an accompanist for the afternoons. Skutchan felt that the music staff did a great job. He said that they have to be more than just teachers, but choreographers, builders, etc. I feel we have an excellent staff, all experts in their field,” he said. “I’m also really enjoying the new vocal facilities that are just about com- pleted.” Art aims admirable “We’re working hard at developing a portfolio for students who have identified art as a career,” said George Sedlacek, art department head. Some identified goals for the art de- partment were helping students un- derstand the place for art in their lives, as well as helping people under- stand that art can fill their lives with beauty and interest. Another important goal was help- ing individuals find careers relating to art. Math department multiplies The math department developed a new look for 1982-83 with several ad- ditions being made in staff, equip- ment, and classes. The department welcomed two new members to its staff, Stephen Quiring and Robert Tice. Quiring filled the vacancy created by the one-year leave of absence taken by Charles Friesen, who left to become the computer consultant for the Lincoln Public Schools. Quiring taught Advanced Algebra, and ac- cording to fellow department mem- ber Patience Fisher, is also knowl- edgeable in computers. This knowledge results in Quiring teaching a night class in computers for LPS. The second new member of the staff, Tice is also knowledgeable in computers, as he taught not only several computer classes at Lincoln High, but also a computer class at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln in the education department. Fisher described the members of the math department as “good com- rades” who “get along well and sup- port each other.” She went on to say that “everyone does a good job and works hard.” Fisher also worked hard to reach the goals she set for herself during the year. These goals included making her Calculus course the equivalent of an advanced placement course (meaning that a student could take the course and get college credit for the high school course), improving her Pascal course, and having the best math team in the state. The improvement of the Pascal course was probably helped along by the arrival of six new computers, bringing the total number of com- puters to 11, the most of any school in Lincoln. “Introduction to Computers,” a new course designed and taught by Sally Roper, allowed more students to take advantage of this abundance of computers, as well as rounding out the changes in the math department for 1982-83. English enlightens According to chairperson Merrell Grant, a few of the goals for the English department were to help stu- dents serve as critics for their own writing, and for the department mem- bers to utilize and pool their planning time. The only new addition to the staff was Ruth Daggett, who taught English 10 and worked in the instruc- tional resources department.

I love being in Madrigals,” he said. ‘‘Renaissance music is the best; I hate rock and roll.” Lance cited Luciano Pavarotti as his idol. “I have most of his records in my collection. I think he’s great.” Lance’s favorite thing about work- ing with music is performing for an audience. “I like doing it for people. I also like the religious aspect,” he said. Academics— 137 Speaker magnetizes To a quiet and listening crowd, Duane Hutchinson, 52, began to tell another captivating story. Storytell- ing fills up most of the retired minis- ter’s time. Whether speaking for stu- dents here, or in southern Colorado, he always has a story to tell. He began relating tales years ago because of his interest in them, and also the tremendous response he received from his listeners. Hutchinson feels that people get a lot from his stories. They learn storytelling techniques, better listen- ing skills and a curiosity about all types of stories. But he thought the most important thing listeners get is the feeling of enchantment. “Stories are to enchant,” he said, “to take you from here and put you into the story.” Hutchinson stressed that the most important thing a narrator must do is to tell a story carefully and in- terestingly. “When they’re listening to a story,” he said, “there’s nothing to keep them going but the words and the glimmer in the storyteller’s eye.” Right—Keeping his audience on the edge of their seats.

Ratliff decided to add small segments to give the viewers a complete view of the school. The film will be shown at orienta- tions for incoming students, and Ratliff hopes it will lessen their ap- prehensions about attending the school with Nebraska’s highest enrollment. Grant felt that the teaching of language arts skills is one of the most important and basic kinds of teach- ing. To cover the material well, the ------------continued-from-page-136 teachers need to have a broad background and experience to handle that kind of variety, and she believes LHS has those kinds of instructors. “It seems that members of the de- partment are outstanding teachers with whom it has been and is a great pleasure and privilege to work,” she said. “They are strong teachers who strive to make language teaching at LHS better and more effective.” Domesticity Delights The home economics department became quite popular, according to department head Kathleen Sayre.

The goals of the department were to help students develop knowledge, skills and attitudes necessary for the role of homemaker, family member, consumer and wage earner and for combining these roles. The classes are often a mixture of elements from art, humanities, mathematics, psy- chology, science and sociology. continued-front-page-139 The Lincoln High home economics department is the largest in the city, with a six-member teaching staff. Many of the new programs that they’ve started in the last few years such as Exploring Childhood, have been imitated by other high schools. Science department experiments According to chairman Robert Compton, the science department provided students with the basic en- try requirements into educational areas such as medicine, dentistry, nursing, and science technology. The courses offered “also enable the student to have a better understand- ing of an ever increasing scientifi- cally oriented society,” he said. Business booms According to chairperson Bill Meyers, the business department successfully reached its goal of in- creased enrollment. Because there are no required classes, it is sometimes hard to recruit kids to take business courses. But in 1983, the new micro- computer and the new class second semester called Business Communi- cation helped to get students in- terested. A second business club was in- itiated entitled Future Business Leaders of America. The club is along the lines of the three-year-old group, DECA. To help out with the increased enrollment, Sandra Wink was added to the staff on a part-time basis. Wink helped out by teaching personal finance and typing.

Foreign affairs inform For students who want to learn more about international affairs, Lincoln High has a course for them entitled International Relations. The class deals with in-depth studies on certain regions of the world, such as Northern Ireland, Vietnam, and the Soviet Union. Students must have an interest in foreign affairs and be willing to keep up on current issues, according to class instructor Ross Tegeler. He added that he enjoys teaching the class because it is not a requirement, therefore students are there because they want to be. “1 don’t have to worry about the things most teachers are worried about, such as behavior,” he said. Senior Donna Blankenbaker commented, I think my knowledge of international affairs has increased. 1 am aware of the things happening in the world, and 1 am also more interested.” Academics—141 Right—The world of auto mechanics can be quite fascinating- Capsules------------------------- -----------continued-from-page-141 new director this year. Ross Tegeler was enthusiastic about his new job and the department’s potential. “I feel like the required courses are all great classes that every student needs,” he said. Before graduation, each student must get credits in Modem U.S. History, Global Perspectives and Citizenship Issues. Languages lead to learning Teaching foreign languages to stu- dents was the most important goal for the foreign language department, ac- cording to department head Terrel Hanshew. Other goals were teaching the kids to speak, read, and understand the language in which they are in- terested. A new award was presented to the student who was an outstanding achiever in two or more languages. Physical education strengthens The physical education staff strove to achieve their goals. An idealistic goal they attempted was to have every student experience some level of physical fitness. Other goals included getting the physical education staff physically fit as well as including more fitness activities in the cur- riculum. A new body conditioning course has been added to the list of physical education classes. Industrial education prepares Department head Dean Clawson believes that the industrial-voca- tional education department can be very valuable to the students who par- ticipate. “We feel like we’re really preparing students to graduate,” he said. “A very high percentage are prepared to go out into a field of work that they’ve studied.” Many of the students also continue their education in the area that they specialized in while in department courses.

Tri-ing it and liking it Deciding that four years of Spanish wasn’t challenging enough, senior Ed Luben temporarily satisfied his appetite for foreign languages by add- ing the German and French courses to his curriculum. Although he has no favorite, Ed said French was easier because he’d had Spanish before he took French, “and they’re both romance lan- guages.” He wants to continue French and German at the college level, and plans on adding Russian to that list. Ed is also interested in Latin and Modem Greek, and thought they should have been offered at the high school level. Ed believes his foreign language skills will be assets in job-seeking and in communication. Left—Trying out their new language skills. Julie Pclowski and Mehsa Merlin converse in Spanish.

Hamsa lends a hand Although a high school can't dou- ble as an employment agency, Room 101 served as an acceptable surro- gate for needy students. Counselor Len Hamsa coordinated the Out-of-School learning program, which aided teenagers in their quests for employment. Hamsa said most of the part-time jobs were offered in the food service. and information of their availability was usually passed to all four Lincoln public high schools. However, “some jobs want Lincoln High students specifically, and these usually call the school,” he said. Since work was scarce, Hamsa said first priority went to students whom counselors recommended as “really needing jobs.” Capsules------------------------ ---------continued-from-page-142 “The students who go on after they leave us tend to do well,” Clawson said. His only concern seems to be about the renovation of the department facilities. “We’ll be the last to get done, so we’re just going to have to wait,” he said. Media centers on individuals The development of an archives room was the media department’s main goal for 1983, according to chairman John Bruce. “As long as the school has been in existence, there has never been any archive development,” he said. Bruce estimated that work on the room will continue in 1983. In the meantime, he is satisfied observing the changes in the students’ attitudes. Instructional units succeed One of the largest divisions of the instructional resources department was the MR unit, and according to its physical education instructor. Bill Kechely, the program’s second year was an overwhelming success. “We’ve been pleased with the ac- ceptance of our kids by the other stu- dents,” Kechely said. Part of the program included the Special Olympics, which started with area competition in January and culminated with state contests at Omaha in May. Events from bowling to basketball were included, and Kechely said the90-100 Lincoln High students eligible to participate did so. Counselors strive Each year the counselors strive for good relations with students, counsel- ing students with problems and help- ing with class registration, said Assistant Principal for Student Serv- ices Donald Dean. But they also single out special goals. Dean said that this year they tried to change the basic job format to avoid counselors from suffering ‘burn-out’. With a slight change of duties in each couselor’s job. Dean felt it would keep them fresh and more assertive. Another goal was for the counselors to get to know the sophomores earlier in the year. Maintaining better con- tact with students that are leaving the school due to transfers or drop- ping out was another objective for 1983. Academics—145 Dedication reaps rewards Athletes show what they’re made of Approximately one-fourth of the population of Lincoln High is in- volved in the athletic program. These students spend a great deal of their scarce free time after school and oc- casionallysm weekends getting ready for athletic competitions. The key word is dedication. A dedicated athlete strives to do his very hest no matter what the cost. Senior Craig Steward thought dedication is one of the most impor- tant parts of athletics. “Through total dedication, an athlete deals with much pain and frustrations, hut the one true reward that an athlete receives through dedication is when he can look back and say he has done the best he can do,” he said. Many hours of hard work and itching muscles go into the making of an excellent athlete. He must ac- knowledge the fact that his success depends on his attitude. Senior Jim Krueger commented, “Dedication is more than just lifting weights. You have to really like what sport you go out for in order to be any good at it. An athlete receives many rewards from sports. First, it calls for total physical fitness—a body must be in perfect shape in order for the athlete to use it to its fullest potential. Also, athletes receive personal satisfaction from knowing they’ve done their very best. A dedicated athlete must have a strong competitive nature in order to succeed. The competition can be tough, so a strong attitude can be a powerful asset. In the world of athletics, every in- dividual works toward a common goal—a spot in the winner’s circle. 146 — Sports We’ve Got — Athletics Left— Determination wasn't enough for Kenny Gilbertson to deceive the Scottsbluff defender.

Intramurals substitute Offer alternatives to extracurricular sports Putting on the sweatsuit, lacing up the tennies, tying on the headband and bouncing out the door for a good workout. This may sound like a typical student preparing for gym class or after school practice. But not all physically active students were in school sports. Some stayed in shape on their own. There were several reasons for be- ing involved in extracurricular sports. One of the main reasons was that it was less competitive, more easy going. Bobbi Scheerger was in both Jazz- ercise and on her church softball team. She participated to keep in shape and have a good time, not to be competitive. “I’m not in a school sport because I don’t like the tough competition,” she said. Intramurals were another way stu- dents could be in sports. Social studies teacher Aldie Johnson coor- dinated after-school soccer games, and Marvin Mueller coordinated the basketball games. Senior Roy Moran, a soccer partici- pant, felt that the usual competition and rivalry were also absent in intra- murals. Although they did keep score of the games, the intent was to have fun. “I enjoyed intramural soccer because we went out to have a good time, not necessarily to win,” he said. Whether it was kicking the soccer ball around or jogging to the nearest gym, students found enjoyment in keeping fit their own way. Students felt that being involved in out-of- school sports provided them with enthusiasm and spirit. Above?—Filled with concern.

Junior Dee Wendling and younger brother Dan both com- peted on the varsity level. They were joined by junior Allison Benorden and senior brother Matt, who left the team shortly after the first meet. Allison was one of two girls to run in the state meet. (Carol Nunnally returned after a four-week bout with pneumonia to place sixth in districts and eighth in State). She said her disappointing finish (30th) was due to physical, not mental, lapses. However, Matt characterized his sister as a “tough little cookie” and said it was her persistence that carried her to State. According to Henrichs, Allison was not the only runner displaying deter- mination. Sophomores Albert Maxey, Dan Wendling and Laura Steinke also received recognition, as did senior letter-winner Jon Fisher. “Jon had an outstanding season considering his times from meet to meet and the competition he faced,” Henrichs said. Laurels for a job well done was returned to the coach. “He’s a good coach,” said sopho- more Ryan Steeves. “He stayed with us, and we were kind of a crazy bunch.” Jon’s time of 16:05 minutes in the 5000-meter run at the Omaha Bryan Invitational was good enough for sixth place, and also the 22nd slot on the all-time best chart for the course.

Cross Country—151 Gymnasts satisfied by State finish Goal achieved by competing second day Good work outs, confidence and team unity earned the boys gym- nastics team to the state finals in November. All of these things con- tributed but the individual gymnast had to perform well enough to remain for the second day. Mark Shearer, second-year gym- nastics coach, felt that Craig Steward was the top all-around competitor. He placed fifth at State in both the vault and floor routines. According to Shearer, the best meet of the season was October 5, against 152—Boys’ Gymnastics defending state champions Omaha South. Defeating them by a score of 134-132 seemed to inspire enough con- fidence to help the Links place third in Trans-Nebraska and second in dis- trict competition. Finishing the season off by com- peting in state finals satisfied the ma- jor aim of the team. “We set a goal to make it to the second day of State,” said Shearer.

Team develops talent Year for experience A team does not always require a winning record to be considered successful in the eyes of its members. The development of talent and the quest for excellence are also factors. In this mode, the girls' gymnastics team, in spite of a record of one win and six losses in dual meets, was successful to second-year Coach Mark Shearer and sophomore Brenda Brehm. “This was a year to build talent and gain experience, Shearer said. “Many of our young performers have gained a lot of experience and confidence. This confidence was revealed in part by Brenda, the leading all-around scorer for the team, who was the team’s sole representative at the state meet, where she tied for sixth in the floor exercise. The qualities achieved by the team in their many practices helped them battle eight tough, more experienced teams for a fourth-place finish at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln Invitational Meet, a season best according to both Brenda and Shearer. They also led to the reaching of part, if not all. of the team’s goals and Brenda’s personal goals. The team broke 120 points in all- over scoring, fulfilling one goal, but did not qualify for state, their second goal. She hopes that the experience gained this year will create a strong team next year. “All 1 can say is I hope the team can do good next year,” said Brenda. “We have a couple of good sophomores coming in, and others are learning new tricks in off-season, so I hope we qualify for state.” Girl ’ Gymnastic LHS OPP 96.65 Beatrice......................100.8 105.05 Grand Island............... 106.40 106.25 East ....................... 134.85 11th Millard Invitational X 121.7 Omaha South ..................129.4 115.4 North Platte................ 103.15 116.05 Southeast .................. 125.30 4th UN-L Invitational X 6th Trans-Nebraska....................X 109.0 Northeast.....................133.0 4th District Meet.....................X Girls’ Gymnastics—155 Varsity Volleyball, (First Row) J.

According to senior Staci Cords, fan support did not reach the level it could have, and this had an effect on the season. “We didn’t get any publicity at all,” she said. “There were no cheerleaders at any of the out-of-town games, and there was only one Pomalink at the Omaha Tournament.” The usually strong parental sup- port was also noticeably missing in 1982-83, Staci said.

Personally, we didn’t do as well as I thought we could have done, but we had a lot of new people.” Close games were a rarity, accord- ing to Staci. “We lost some close games that we should have won, but when we won we won by a long ways,” she said. Senior Lisa Spadt was also happy with the season, and thought both participation and support for volley- ball (and girls sports in general) will grow.

Teams attain wisdom Experience is best teacher The 1982 varsity football team landed their first winning season since 1978 under the direction of sec- ond-year coach Harold Simpson. Simpson felt that a weight training program would be the best place to start after last year’s 2-7 season record. Lack of this program for the 1981 season left many players in- jured. The players practiced during the school year, and were expected to lift weights a mandatory 18 times during summer vacation or they were not allowed to play, according to senior Alan Muthersbaugh. Attitude was a major factor in this year’s season. The Links obtained early exposure in August through newspaper articles, which boosted the team’s confidence. Despite this confident attitude LHS suffered a 0-21 loss against Columbus in the season opener at Seacrest Field. Later in the season, Lincoln High played third-ranked and previously undefeated Southeast, emerging the victor with a 20-10 Homecoming win. The Links defeated another inner-city team in their final match against East, 14-6, finishing the season ranked second in the city with a 5-4 record. “We’ve got to give a lot of credit to Coach Simpson for turning the pro- gram around from a 2-7 record to a 5-4 record,” commented senior Don Wilken. Reserves gain experience “The purpose of the junior varsity program is to develop players for the varsity, and with hard work off-sea- son, many of these young men will help,” said Coach Thomas Christie. Even though the 1982 team fin- ished the season with a 2-6 record, they made their opponents work for their points. Sophomore Troy Malone felt the team was more keyed up dur- ing the games that were won, and attributed the losses to a lack of inten- sity. The Links lost to East on Septem- ber 9, by a score of 6-14, but defeated them in the final game of the season 10-7. They also shut out Fremont on October 7 at Beechner Field, 14-0. Junior Dan Ullman remarked, “We had enough juniors out for football, but a lot of them were put on varsity so we would have a good foundation to build on for next year.” Christie singled out Keith Brooks, Russ Luben, Troy Malone, Steve Davis, Chuck Hansen and Mike Chadd as players he is counting on to help the varsity next year. “I’m sure there will be few others who will work hard and earn a position, at least we hope so,” he added. Sophomores receive support The sophomore team had a disap- pointing season, with only one vic- tory. This high point came on October 14 when the Links defeated Omaha Westside, 21-14. The pep club and sophomore yell leaders continued to support the team at Beechner Field, as well as parents, fans, and faculty. 160-Football Left—When it’ third and 10, punting is the only option for Links Reserves.

Winter Sports—163 Girls play as a team Individuals join, gain success V’arsity recalls good season A season of small achievements and planned-out strategy left the girls’ varsity members feeling good. Sometimes practices didn’t go well, and the team began to feel wrung out. That is when Coach Bill Meyers would help. Junior Vallery Brown said Meyer’s strong coaching really helped them. He could tell us what we were do- ing wrong, she said. “He wasn’t afraid to jump in and help.” An important game for varsity was against Westside. Beating the third- rated team boosted the Links’ rating and spirits. Every team remembers an impor- tant game and every player can recall a certain play. Vallery had good reason to remember a spectacular play against North Platte, where she threw the ball across court with two seconds remaining, making the basket and beating the Bulldogs by one point. Upon answering what was her favorite part about playing basket- ball, Vallery stated with a mixture of shyness, pride, and a laugh, “Being able to make 30 good jump shots.” Reserves capture city champs With the status of a 15-1 record, a strong team and a city championship, the girls’ reserves ended the season with a well-earned pride. With an earlier loss to Lincoln East, the Links put forth an extra effort to beat them by 12 points for the city championship. According to junior Tracy Thomp- son, Coach Kraig Anderson was an important part of the team’s success. Not only did he prepare them physically for a game, but also men- tally, by telling them how important the game was, and that they should just do their best. 164—Girls’ Basketball Tracy also said that one of the reasons the team did so well was because every player was strong in at least one category. This strengthened the team by making it more powerful in every area. Tracy looked at the team members in a realistic way. “We were just all missing pieces of a puzzle,” she said. “Once together, we really made things happen.

Despite the lack of bodies, the team managed to send two members to state. Mark Jameson qualified in the diving competition and 50-yard freestyle, and John Tidball in the 500- yard and 200-yard freestyle. Sophomore Chris Wing observed, “Jameson was outstanding in the 50- yard freestyle, and also his diving events. Tidball did well in the 200- yard and 500-yard freestyle.” Wing remarked about the season, “We didn’t have any wins, but at least no one drowned.” He justified the lack of interest in the sport as it being too demanding for some individuals. “Swimming requires a lot of self discipline to get up in the mornings for workouts and also after school,” he said. Wing also felt a deficiency in recognition and support from the school. Wing thought the team’s strengths were in the individuals. “Each person improves their swimming abilities,”he said. He attributed the team’s string of losses to lack of people out for the sport, and that the people who were out were mostly beginners.

With 11 events, there were barely enough swimmers to compete. The team finished the season with a one win as Lincoln High beat Fremont, 78-45. Junior Janene Hoskovec com- mented, “Our record doesn’t look very good, but we’ve gone against some really tough teams and we didn’t get ‘whaled on’ like last year. We’re going to miss our seniors, but next year I think we’ll have a really strong team.” Hoskovec felt the team’s weaknesses were the lack of girls out for the sport, and the fact that they usually didn’t get the events filled. “But we have a lot of potential. Next year is going to be very in- teresting because some really good sophomores will be swimming for us.” The team’s strongest events were the medley relay and diving since both made it to the state finals. Lincoln High sent five female swimmers to State. Sherri Yelick, Amy Marquez, Jeanette Vilda, and Kelli Kahler comprised the medley relay, and Hoskovec qualified in the 170—Girls’ Swimming diving competition. Hoskovec stated many girls started the season but couldn’t handle it and quit. “Swimming is a hard sport. It takes a lot of dedication to be at practice at 6:30 in the morning and then back to the pool after school. Swimming laps can get very boring.” Hoskovec felt Greg Rice was generally a good coach since he has been through it all. Debbie Donaln and Kelly Peterson assisted Rice.

Varsity finishes 13-8 The varsity team finished with a 13- 8 record and many titles. The titles included winner of the LaBlonde Tournament in St. Joseph, Missouri, Trans-Nebraska Conference Cham- pions and City Champions. Only a disappointing third loss to city foe Lincoln East stopped the Links from taking the district title as well. The Spartans also recorded the Links' only city defeats. “It was disappointing losing to East three times,” said senior Gary Steer. “Whenever we played them, it seemed we couldn’t beat them no matter what we tried.” The East-block, however, did not stop the team from meeting their season goals, said Gary. “We met our goals as a team by having a better season than everybody expected.” Reserves meet goals Success was also in the air for the reserve team as they closed the season with a winning 9-7 record and the meeting of their goals. The goals included attaining a win- ning season, getting along together and maintaining a good attitude throughout the season, said junior Tom Vontz. Sophomore Troy Malone, a varsity- reserve swing player, rated the season as fun. “It was fun,” said Troy. “Everybody knew everybody and we had fun playing together.” Both Tom and Troy agreed that next year, with returning varsity letterman, a good reserve team, and good incoming sophomores, could be a promising one for the Links. Sophs attain experience Although their 3-9 record was nothing to boast about, the sophomore team was not discouraged according to sophomore Jeff Parrish. “We had a good team, but we’ll have a better team next year,” said Jeff. The high school basketball ex- perience proved to be different from junior high play, according to the5'8 guard. “In junior high, we kind of messed around a lot. The sophomores worked hard,” said Jeff. The outlook for next year’s reserve team is pretty good, said Jeff. “We already have experience, and some reserves will still be there,” he said.

Although of- ficial training before the season was not allowed, individual team mem- bers used the winter months to start conditioning. Senior Carol Nunnally reported that she ran outdoors throughout the winter. I averaged about 30 miles a week,” she said. “Sometimes it was really hard for me to make myself go out and do it, but I felt like I needed to.” Carol also cited weight training as a very popular method with many runners. Her teammate, senior Brenda Esch- enbacher, was also enthusiastic about the early conditioning efforts. “I feel that we are about two weeks ahead of where we were at this time last year,” Brenda said. “The team did great last year and now the people are in even better shape. The good condition of the team members, combined with their inher- ent talents, was mentioned by Brenda as a mixture to promote optimism. Another bright spot was provided by the fact that the boys’ and girls’ teams trained together. “It has worked out well,” said senior Staci Cords. “It’s not like I thought it would be. We do the same things as the guys—they just have to do more of everything.” Staci described it as a very individ- ualized program that was well received by both teams, for the most part. It’s not too competitive,” she said, but when the guys run against someone like Vallery Brown and lose to her, it kind of gets to them.” Staci continued, “They say things like, 'I wasn’t running as fast as I could have,’ or T let her win.’ It’s really funny.” Staci's only concern was that the new members might not comprehend what it meant to follow a state cham- pionship team. “I really feel that the team has to go out and defend the title,” Staci said. We all need to realize that we have to work hard and do our best to keep it.” Y'arsity March IS ..............Nebraska Wesleyan March 26 ......................Grand Island Relays March HO ..................Lincoln Relays April (I.........Grand Island Inviuttional April II...........................Beatrice April 15...............Fremont Invitational April 19............................Fremont April 22.........Harold Scott Invitational April : ).......Trans-Nebraska Conference May 6 ..............Lincoln Public Schools Championships May 13........................District Meet May 20-21 ............................State Meet Reserve March 29 ........................LK-LNK-LSE April 14..........................LKLNKI.SK April 2«........................LK.LNK-I.SE May 12 ..........................LE-LNK-LSE May 17 .......................Non-Qualifier Meet Left—Doing a few laps, Laura Steinke takes the lead.

According to returning varsity letterman don Fisher, preparation was the key. “A lot of people trained this last winter,” the senior said. “Not offi- cially, of course, hut Mr. (Coach Hob) White gave us suggestions. We can’t really start training until the spring.” Aside from being a dedicated group, the team was also the largest one organized since about 1973. “There were probably over 60 peo- ple,” Jon said. “It’s good for morale.” “Mr. White’s a very good coach,” contributed senior Lance McCord. “He’s really enthusiastic and he wants everyone to do their own best.” Lance also agreed that the size of the team could he regarded as an ad- vantage. “A lot of the people are excellent athletes,” he explained. “It definitely can work for us when we’re out com- peting.” Aside from all this, optimism was cited as the key to having a winning team. “It’s psychological,” Lance stated. “A lot of support is needed.” Varsity March IS...............Nebraska Wesleyan March 26....................Millard Relays March . {0..................Lincoln Relays April 5.................................York April 9................................Grand Island April II............................Beatrice April 1 ............................Fremont April 22...........Harold Scott Invitational April .'{0.......Trans-Nebraska Conference May 6 ...............L1 S Championships May l.'l............................District Meet May 20-21 ....................State Meet Reserve March 251........................LE-I NE-LSE April 14.........................LE-LNE-I.SE April 2 ..........................LE-LNE-LSE May 12 ...........................LE-LNE-LSE May 17 ...............Non-Qualifier Meet Top Left—Practicing for the shotput event.

Boys’ Track—179 Late cold hinders Teams face tough competition A wet spring postponed the opening of the season and forced several in- door practices, hut the hasehall teams survived a tough season. With seven returninglettermen, the varsity competed in a district with basically all the same talents, said senior Fred Hicks. A fast outfield with good arms, and a strong sense of team camaraderie helped the team overcome a weakness in pitching, said Fred. The key to the reserve season was teamwork and both a solid infield and outfield, said junior Mitch Salomons. Tough competition was provided by Pius X, Northeast, and Fast, among others, Mitch said. Summer leagues are the current means of preparation for most soph- omore hall players, said sophomore Steve Wise. Lack of a junior high program did not, however, hinder the sophs as they faced the season with both strong hitting and fielding abilities, said Steve. March 30 March 31 April 4 .. April 6 ..

Drills benefit girls Hard work precedes every step The girls’ tennis team’s goal was to win a meet. To some people, that goal might not sound too difficult, but practice, determination and hard work went behind every step to reach it. There were two practices a day. The first started at 3:15 p.m. and the se- cond at 4:15 p.m. While half of the team was practicing, the other half would stretch out and exercise. Practices weren’t just for perfect- ing serves and volleys (although they did that. too). The team lifted weights, ran, stretched, and did aerobics. According to junior Peggy Keller, Coach Hose Kotwas was a good coach, and made practices fun. Not only did Kotwas help the players, but junior Shelly Western- burg felt that she provided the sup- port to reach their goal. Shelly said that the attitude of team members was to “give it all we’ve got.” Varsity March 28 ... March .10 ...

Junior Mindy Leapley com- mented, We just couldn’t get enough people to join.” Every spring the Aqualinks present their show. This year’s theme was Aqualinks go to the movies” and contained songs from famous movies. The show was held on April 28. Hard work and practice goes into the making of a successful show. The girls practiced two nights after school for four hours, and Saturday morn- ings for two hours. The Aqualinks had a new sponsor this year, as Fat Osbourne replaced Opal Stoehr. She coached the girls on swimming techniques and rhythm. Why do the girls enjoy the long hours and hard work? “Because it’s fun!” conceded Mindy. “The girls are really nice and it’s neat to see the show put together with thestunts. It’s interesting.” Aqualinks. Above—(First How) Brooke Baker. Tina Bourne. Monica Ullman. Laura Sothan. Kristi Gish, Brenda Spilker. (Second Row) Kim Paulsen. Ginger Lindholm. Jill Gies.

Aqualinks—185 Advertising produces results Student dollars boost business Many Lincoln I lie'll students do not realize the immense buying power they possess. Kvery time a dime of their hard-earned cash is spent on fust foods and fast cars, the businesses around Lincoln are benefiting greatly. Advertising is one of the most powerful ways of selling products. Businesses are aware that teenagers are more susceptible to advertising than adults. They pay to advertise in many high school year- hooks which benefits them, but also keeps the cost of yearbooks down to the lowest |Missible price. Many students do not realize that adver- tising pays for about 10 per cent of their yearbook. A strong link exists between the businessperson and the student. Many employers hire high school students because they will work for minimum wage. In turn, the high school employee will persuade his friends to visit him at work. Commercials are a common form of advertisement. Companies spend literally millions of dollars for (SO seconds of air time. Other popular means of selling products through advertising include magazines, newspapers, billboards, and, of course, yearbooks. In a poll taken randomly of Lincoln High students, it was evident that students s| end the majority of their money on food, clothing, and cars. How do they know which business offers the best quality? Junior Jackie Jackson comments, “Mainly I ask my parents where I should buy things. They’ve been around and usually know where I can find the best deals.” Advertising plays an important role in today's society. Students, as tomorrow’s leaders in the world of money, should realize the tremendous impact advertising hus on their lives.

The school’s 112th birthday was made a happy one by the accomplishments of the most diverse student body of any high school in the state. Academically, LHS students proved they could com- pare favorably with their peers at other high schools. Six of the seven National Merit Semi-finalists became finalists—a reflection of the teaching and guidance they received. Adding to their well-rounded education was the constant contact they (and all other LHS students) made with persons of different race, ethnicity and religion. Also serving as reinforcement for its academic reputa- tion was the school’s math students. Not only were they ranked first in Lincoln in Atlantic-Pacific competition, but also third in Nebraska. In the sports department, LHS regained its winning tradition. The varsity football team posted its first win- ning record in four years, including victories over city rivals Southeast and East. Joining football in varsity excellence was the boys’ basketball squad. Team mem- bers presented Coach Alden Johnson with his first city championship since 1964, and also the Trans-Nebraska title (the team’s first outright conference crown). City honors were also bestowed upon the girls’ reserve basket- ball team, which finished the season 17-1. Still, 1983 would be deemed a success without the accomplishments of the brains and the brawn. Students who found themselves at neither extreme made contribu- tions by sharing fears, dreams and experiences with others, thus creating an atmosphere conducive to learn- ing. It is this blending that makes LHS what it is and what it forever will be—a school oblivious to criticism, open to diversity and home for all. Honors bestowed upon Class of ’83 Seniors win traditional awards The tradition of honoring Lincoln High School seniors for their scholastic and activity achievement during the past three years was again carried on this spring. National Honor Society Eighty-one seniors were nominated to participate in the National Honor Society initiation ceremonies held April 21. The selection of the group was made after examining the scholastic achievement and activity participation of all graduating seniors in the scholastic upper 25 percent of the Class of 1983. Those nominated included: Jeffrey A. Ahl, Lisa J. Alley, Lori J. Baehr, Kathleen M. Barron. Timothy D. Becm; Donna G. Blankenbaker, Kathleen F. Bogema. Michael K. Bone, Thomas J.

Senior Awards Day Individual recognition of seniors for outstanding achievements in the areas of academics, sports, fine arts, and home economics was the order of the day at the 1983 Senior Awards Day held May 24 in Johnson Gym. It was the beginning of the end for the senior class as underclassmen and faculty members watched various honors awarded to the 1983 graduates. Several awards have taken on added significance because of the year the award was established or because of the overall area the honor encompasses. And. for the first time ever, the same individual won both The Harry Sidney Dobbins Award and the Ned Prucha Award. 222—Closing Left—Scolding radical son Jay Thornton, Davidy Duffy enjoys his role in the all-school production of Thornton Wilder's The Skin of Our Teeth.

Winning the two awards was Jon Fisher. The Harry Sidney Dobbins Award has been given every year since 1913 and recognizes the most outstanding senior male athlete. Athletic Director Jim Sommers and varsity level head coaches determine the winner of the award after taking into consideration school activities, academics and athletic achievements of possible candidates. The Ned Prucha Award honors the individual who ranks number one in National Honor Society. Established in I960 by Mr. and Mrs. Norman Prucha. the Ned Prucha Award memorializes the achievements of their son. a 1958 Lincoln High School graduate who was killed in a hotel fire while on vacation in Europe. In winning both awards, Jon displayed a high level of academic achievement and activity participation during his three years at Lincoln High School. Selected to National Honor Society and the Upper Three Percent. Jon participated in various music activities, was a three-year member of the boys’ cross country and track teams, competed in state-wide and foreign language competition and attended Cornhusker Boys’ State. Jon also was recognized at awards day for his excellence in mathematics and German in addition to being awarded the Scholarship Key for his number one scholastic ranking in the graduating senior class. Also sharing top scholastic honors with Jon and also receiving Scholarship Keys were John Smeltzer and Debra Fiala. Another traditional award, the Girls Athlete Award, was won by Continued on page 224 Closing—223 Below—Traditions like strength and unity never die, as symbolized by the Links. Carol Nunnally. A member of the National Honor Society and the Upper Three Percent, Carol was a member of the girls’ cross country and track teams. She played a major role in leading the 1982 girls’track team to the All-Class Championship as she won Class A individual titles in the 880, mile and two-mile run. Speciality awards also were given in the areas of art, debate, drama and journalism. Deb Omel was honored for her achievement in art while Bradley Walker, a three-year debate team member, was recognized for his excellence in debate. Jill Holbert was the senior class drama award winner and John Smeltzer, 1983 editor of the Advocate, won the Journalism Award. The Home Economics and Music Departments also honored seniors.

Foreign Language winners included Beth Kolb in Spanish and Craig A. Rieckc in French. 224—Closing We’ve Got It The ability to accept others is a oital trait Out of necessity, we have developed tolerance for a variety of cultural branches. The 1737 ingredients that comprised our school’s melting pot offered educational opportunities beyond the regular curriculum that few institutions could claim. The ethnic harmony is easy to explain, however, because at Lincoln High, acceptance is what we stand for, and what we've got. . . is life. mWA LSW )RTH PUBLISHING COM PA N Y MARrriiM «wwii m • n
