PlatUmouH, NE 68048 New Direction In Routines Mrs. Mary Nelson reads the morning an- nouncements to her homeroom class. Sen- iors Michele Norris and Wendy Thomas listen closely. Almost every day, the hallways at PHS would echo with feeble cries of Why did they have to go and change everything? and I liked it better the way it was. Indeed, the 1987-88 school year has marked a great change in student and faculty life. The year has taken a new direction. Many changes were made which seemed to put things in a different perspective. A homeroom was added to our everyday routine. That was the fun-filled ten minutes after first hour that we got to spend with our teacher-advisor. Also, this year was the first year PHS had soccer as a school sanctioned sport. Many people welcomed it into the PHS family of athletics. There were many new happenings in the academic field. The drafting course which was done away with three years ago was revived. And there were ten new computers for students taking Keyboarding Typing courses. Also, with the addition of several new teachers and coaches, the classroom activities and sports seasons took on a new direction. The new boys' basketball coach Steve Daniell takes time out during practice to ex- plain some fundamentals to senior players Dan Cahalane. Bill Lukash and Devon Fulton. 2 Introduction Junior Tammy Gonyea shows how much fun it can be to clean her locker during home- room. Pencil, paper, ruler, eraser—Senior Krista Phillips is glad drafting is offered this year. v Introduction 3 New Direction In Policies What difference does five minutes make? Well, not much you might say, but some of the school policies this year had taken on a new direction. School started five minutes earlier this year than last year. Also, when students registered for their classes, they simply wrote down what courses they wanted to take and the computer figured out their schedule for them. This was a new direction compared to the arena scheduling system that we had in the past years. This year, whenever a student had to leave school for any reason, they had to sign out in the office.lf they returned to school, they had to sign back in. Also, the Senior Class of 1988 was the first to gra- duate under the new requirements of having four years of English, three years of social studies, and two years each of math and science. Driver's education was no longer required. There were many new policies started this year, all of which headed the students and faculty in a new direc- tion. Junior Bryan Schaffer remembers to sign out in the office before he leaves school. 4 Introduction Miss Chris May, the new English and Jour- nalism teacher, stays after school to correct papers. •t-f The new computer scheduling process seemed to make things a little easier, but students didn't seem to like it as well.

Beginning with dismissal from school at noon on Friday until the mud drags on Sunday, students are kept busy. The kar- nival takes place in the end of September, and draws both young and old from all over the county. Senior girls competed for the Sweet- heart honor: cheerleaders, drill team members and the band performed in the various parades. This year Karen Faris was crowned Sweetheart ’87 and Tammy Clark was named runner-up. Patty Baker and Kylee Schafer tied for third. Kirsten Kolhof, Kathy Ehle, Cindy Toman, Marcya Lever- ing, Stacy Schreiber, Deanne Durkin, April Beasley and Heather Giles were oth- er contestants. Cheerleaders sponsored their now an- nual pep rally at the end of main street on Friday to raise spirit for the Auburn foot- ball game to be held that night. Platts- mouth’s largest crowd of the year watched the Bulldogs upset the Devils 14- 7. ‘‘The 28 seniors this year was fewer then the 52 we had in last years korona- tion, explained Mrs. Sharon Smith. Once again, these seniors served as dukes and duchesses for the koronation held on Thursday night. Main street was filled as the seniors lined the street awaiting the king and queen. Senior Chad Hart com- mented, Koronation seemed too long, but I still enjoyed dressing up.” Seniors listen to last minute instructions as they prepare to walk down main street.

Korn Karnival 9 Senior wins tricycle race for a fourth year Faculty Claims Day The faculty has finally managed to clinch a surprising victory over their pupils at the Devilmania games. Although the faculty won, it was a close race throughout the day. Faculty won with 50-Vi points, but the seniors were close with 43- 2 points. Sophomores were third with 38 points, juniors were fourth with 26-' 2 points, and the fresh- men came in last with 21- 2 points. This year two games were added to the schedule. Basketball and trivial pursuit were played along with some of the nor- mal games like the lip-sync contest and the 3-legged race. This was the first year that the banana-split eating contest did not take place. Faculty placed first in the lip-sync con- test, trivial pursuit, tug-of-war, softball and volleyball. Seniors placed first in poster decorations, tricycle race, basket- ball shooting, pyramid building, and jump rope. Sophomores were first in the walk, 3-legged race, and the egg toss. Fresh- men and juniors did not place first in any events. Senior Tony Abercrombie became a four-time champion in the tricycle race. Tony credits his winning to the tricycle. “It is all in the tricycle, the large front tire gave me traction.” He went on to say that his backward handlebar techique played an important role in his four victories. At the end of the games, the students and faculty were treated to hot dogs and pop. “I feel very disappointed that we did not win,” said Senior Michelle Hughes. Juniors struggle during the pyramid con- test. Senior Tony Abercrombie and his winning tricycle pose after claiming the tricycle race championship. Cheerleaders and Drill team rap to the ‘‘Superstud Shuffle at the Devilmania pep rally. Devilmania 11 Peters, Beasley crowned at Homecoming Devils Stage Comeback “It wasn't long enough,” explained Ju- nior Julie Kastrick, “The game got over too late.” This phrase was the most often expressed about this year’s homecoming. The game was not completed until 10:00 pm. Once students ventured home and put the finishing touches on dressing up, time had already passed quickly. The Homecoming game did not start very promising. On the opening kickoff, a Gretna Dragon ran the ball back for a touchdown and a 7-0 lead. A tremendous rally lifted the devils to a 17-14 comeback win. The thrilling game capped off an entire week of activities. Spirit week featured nerd day, Hawaiian day, pajama day, blue and white day and dress up day. Thursday night marked the 2nd annual bonfire sponsored by the booster club. Students gathered at the end of main street and followed the ‘dragon’ to the bonfire site. The dragon was tossed in the fire and burned. Friday, students were dismissed at noon for the devilmania games. Faculty defeated the highly favored seniors. De- vilmania was a lot of fun, even though the seniors should have beaten the teach- ers,” said Senior Kirsten Kolhof. Cheerleaders, drill team members and athletes voted on candidates for home- coming. Seniors Troy Ferdig, David Klan- ecky, Bob Combs, David Peters, Chad Hart, Patty Baker, Heather Giles, April Beasley, Kelly Ogle and Roxi Bradway were voted candidates. The student body voted David Peters and April Beasley homecoming king and queen. Candidates tor homecoming (bottom row), Troy Ferdig. David Klanecky, Bob Combs.

Homecoming 13 Rainy Halloween draws cruisers Low Turnout At Dance It was a rainy, gloomy night, a typical Halloween night. October 30 marked the day the Future Homemakers of America sponsored the first ever Halloween dance. Witches, gypsies, wizards, mice and punk rockers, along with many other cos- tumes were seen at the dance. The best dressed award for the boys went to Soph- omore Bret Lingle who was dressed as a skeleton, and for the girls Sophomore Kim Humpal won with her mouse costume. “When I heard my name announced, I couldn’t believe it! I just stood there in a daze, explained Kim. “I was a little dis- appointed that not very many people were there, but if we have another dance next year, I hope people will get into the Halloween spirit.” Due to the low turnout the FHA club lost about $100 according to sponsor Jacque Gaebel. “The people that were there had a really good time, but I think it’s also disappointing that there were so few there.” Junior Sheri Morehead was disappointed at the turnout and explained the reason for the low turnout, “I don’t think there were that many people that showed up because of the day it was on and because of the weather.” The dance was eventful and not all was lost. There were good choices of music and I had a lot of fun,” explained Senior Brenda Ostrom. FHA is optimistic and hopefully next year’s dance will be bigger and even better. Mrs. Jacque Gaebel, FHA advisor, gets in a spellbinding mood at the FHA dance. Sophomores Jamie Hudson and David Huebner hit the beach in their costumes at the dance Junior Michelle Bryant picks out a bony partner at the dance. Halloween 15 From clothes, shoes to jewelry, music PHS Students Are In Fashion-conscious students roamed the halls of PHS sporting their “in” duds wherever they went. One of the biggest fashion crazes this year was what was known as frosted den- im. It was everywhere. There were frosted jeans, shirts, shoes, purses, jackets, dresses and jewelry. Another big thing this year was shoes. They came in every shape, color and tex- ture imaginable. Exotic animal skins such as lizard, snakeskin and ostrich were sure hits. Some shoes were dressed up with sequins, patches, rhinestones and hand- painted designs. Moccasins and cowboy boots with fringe were a hot look, too. This year’s variation for jeans was any- thing but new. “Old” was in. People bought brand new jeans that came al- ready stretched, washed, worn and torn. Faded jeans and holes in the knees were big. Jackets were seen everywhere. The big leather bomber jackets were seen more frequently; and of course, jean jackets were more popular than ever. Expensive brand names like Guess and Forenza were a hot item. “In” fragrances included Polo for guys and Giorgio for girls. Music is something that is a big part of most people’s lives, and this year saw many old songs revived by new artists. Songs like “Wipe Out”, redone by the Fat Boys; “Mony Mony”, rereleased by Billy Idol; and “You Keep Me Hangin’ On”, revived by Kim Wilde were smashes all over again. As far as what’s out, well, you might as well throw away those old gym shoes, flowered jeans, stirrup pants and old Mi- chael Jackson records. Seniors April Beasley and Cindy Toman find a quiet room to call the spirits to talk to them through their Ouija board. Many of these boards were seen throughout the hall- ways and classrooms of PHS this year. 16 What's In What's Out ■ A touch of clast—many girls were seen wearing their mother’s class rings along with their own. Junior Jon Heigl’s haircut is a current fash- ion. Shaved sideburns are becoming more popular. Hi-tops, booties, Reeboks and moccasins got a lot of wear this year. Also, many stu- dents wore their pants rolled up at the ankles because, well, it was in”! What’s In What’s Out 17 Fishing, riding, sewing, reading, shopping Students Occupy Their Time We all know what PHS students do be- tween 8:30 and 3:30 every Monday through Friday. But what do they do in their free time? One of the biggest things that occupies a teenage Plattonian's time is cruising. It doesn’t even matter what day of the week it is, you can always find someone cruis- ing. On Friday and Saturday nights, Main Street is completely filled with cars. Some students go to parties to relax and socialize. Others go to Bellevue or Omaha to see one of the latest movies. Some just enjoy staying home and watch- ing a movie on a VCR. Many students like to spend some of their free time shopping. Some of the most popular places to go are South- roads, Crossroads, Westroads and the Old Market. Some students have part time jobs to keep them busy. Their work ranges from bagging groceries at local stores to keep- ing records at City Hall. Many PHS students are involved in sports. They spend hours after school practicing. Many students who are not involved in a school sport attend the games or meets. Several students spend their free time with their boyfriend or girlfriend. Others enjoy going to dances, concerts, or out to eat. Many students have hobbies that they spend their free time on. Some of these hobbies include sewing, reading, horse- back riding, drawing, fishing, and bicy- cling. Senior Dale Lingle says, “I like to ride motorcycles whenever I get the chance.” Juniors Niei Nielson and Jason Chicoine make a pinata in Spanish III. Sophomore Bryan Schaffer and Junior Ryan Pecha spread their wings after school. Seniors Dave Peters and Chad Hart mess around in drama while Bob Combs and Rick Draper (background) listen.

Christmas, New Year bring about new events Homeroom Parties Held The tree, decorations, presents, par- ties, friends and good cheer are all impor- tant parts of Christmas and New Year’s; but so is school. And PHS is no excep- tion; where this year homeroom parties, the first Holiday Ball and a slave auction were held. This year with the establishment of a ten minute homeroom, the high school decided to have Christmas parties in homerooms on the last day of school be- fore Christmas vacation. And to fill the Plattsmouth Food Pantry, a contest was held to see which homeroom could col- lect the most goods. The winning group, Mr. Wiles’ advisees, received pizzas for their homeroom. Everyone brought ra- dios, food and a good time was enjoyed by all. At the first Holiday Ball, sponsored by the student council, the king was Jamie Clark and the queen was Kelly Ogle. To get in, a student needed a can of food and $1.00. The slave auction was held to raise money for the drill team. There were 16 slaves sold to work during a regular school day. A provision was that a slave couldn’t spend money on their master. The auctioneer was Mr. Kappas and the drill team raised over $100 for new uni- forms. In Mr. Tarnasky’s Spanish classes, stu- dents made pinatas, filled them with can- dy and broke them at the Christmas par- ty. The students made the pinatas with a mixture of flour and water making a glue, attached them to a balloon, and after it dried, opened one end and popped the balloon. Senior Kelly Ogle helps deliver pizzas to Mr. Wiles' homeroom advisees after they col- lected the most food items in a contest to give goods to the food pantry. 20 Christmas New Year’s Spanish I teacher Mr. Tarnasky helps out Juniors John Newell and Robbie Albertson with their pinatas. Juniors Tina Barkus, Deanna Prohaska and Senior Michele Norris put some finishing touches on the Christmas tree in the main hallway. Sophomore Roger Reichart assembles his pinata by filling it with candy and finally breaking it at the Christmas party in Mr. Tar- nasky's Spanish I class. Seniors Jamie Clark and Kelly Ogle were named king and queen of the first Holiday Ball sponsored by the student council. Christmas New Year’s 21 The 1987-88 school year was one filled with scandal and surprises in the real world. In September, Tom Selleck married Jil- lie Mack; Def Leppard came out with a new LP; and the Pope toured the U.S. October saw all of Jessica Hahn as she posed for Playboy magazine. George Harrison released a new record entitled “Cloud Nine , and the entire world watched in fascination as Jessica Mc- Clure was rescued from the well in Texas. The bottom of the stock market fell out in November, causing a loss greater than the one that caused the Great Depres- sion. Bruce Willis and Demi Moore were married, and Bruce Springsteen released Tunnel of Love”. In December, rumors flew about the impending divorce of actor Sean Penn and singer Madonna, but they remained together. The Golden Globe awards were hand- ed out in January, giving Cher best ac- tress and Micheal Douglas best actor; “The Last Emperor walked off with best picture. March saw Jimmy Swaggart involved in a sex scandal; and Andy Gibb, former teen heart-throb, died at the age of 30. April was a slow month, but it was a part of the year, and should be included in the list. May, however, was frantic with scan- dal, the biggest of them all being the re- lease of Donald Regan’s book “For The Record”, in which it was revealed that the entire White House schedule is worked around the predictions of astrologer Joan Quigley. The White House has denied those rumors, but it seems we’ll just have to stay “tuned”. Elizabeth Taylor came out with a new per- fume called “Passion ; Andy Gibb died of heart problems; and Cher walked off with a Best Actress Oscar. 22 Current Events Current events filled with many scandals Did This Really Happen? K'VlsWhc ?®H Crac Jesse Jackson remained in the presidential races, despite failed plans to end his life because it was feared he was too close to the presidency. Jessica Hahn bared all in Playboy, claiming I am not a bimbo!”; Jimmy Swaggart was brought low when he admitted to “watching prostitutes. Headlines rocked the nation, exposing such major problems and occurences as AIDS, the Crack epidemic, and the onslought of sex scan- dals. Current Events 23 The Rumbles perform at Knights of Columbus Jamie And Caroline Crowned The 1988 Junior Senior Prom was held at the Knights of Columbus in Bellevue on Sat., May 15. The juniors worked hard all year long to raise money for prom. The banquet be- gan at 7 p.m., during which Junior Class President Shelly Toman read the senior class prophecy, and Senior Class Presi- dent Dave Klanecky read several senior wills. After the banquet, the students got down and boogied to the sounds of the live band, “The Rumbles.” Then everyone took a break from danc- ing and watched the prom servers do a dance to “Fantasy” by Aldo Nova and a skit satirizing several seniors. Sophomore prom servers were Tina Cahalane, Heather Hoffman, Shelley Zweibahmer, Charity Abercrombie, Bryna Krauth, Jenny Church, Laurie Bresnahan, Roxanne Wiles, Jeff Henry, Joe Ulrich, Roger Reichart, Kerry Carpenter, John Horn, Jeff Sautter, David Rohan and Ja- mie Hudson. Then came the moment everyone was waiting for, when Jamie Clark and Caro- line Olson were crowned king and queen. Prince and princess were Chad Hart and Therese Farth. Junior attendants were Jim Thompson and Marie Humphrey. Senior king candidates were Troy Fer- dig, Dave Peters and Dave Klanecky. Queen candidates were Kelly Ogle, April Beasley and Roxi Bradway. Junior royalty candidates were Michelle Settje, Tina Beckwith', Shelly Toman, Tina Barkus, Mike Mossey, Niel Nielsen, Jon Heigl, and Steve Fornoff. The theme for the 1988 Junior Senior Prom was “Just Between You and Me by April Wine, and decorations were done in metallic silver, dusty rose and sapphire blue. Junior Niel Nielsen hangs streamers to add to the decorations of prom. Junior Tina Barkus helps decorate for prom by tying the balloons together. Crowned king and queen at the 1988 Prom were Seniors Jamie Clark and Caroline Olson. Prom 25 Students celebrate straight with M A S H After Prom In Korea? A replica from M A S H was placed in the gym so nobody would feel away from home. All photos were taken by Ric Carlson of Plattsmouth Photography. 26 After Prom Attention, attention all personnel ..was commonly heard after school during the week before prom to advertise this year’s After-Prom. This year the theme was M A S H 4077. To support the theme students were encouraged to buy army shirts to wear or bring their own. Upon arrival before the 1:30 a.m. dead- line and after signing in, each student was issued his or her own set of dog tags and a visa. To enter, one must have first com- pleted a basic training obstacle course. Once inside there was much to do. Ca- sino style games were everywhere, rang- ing from blackjack to craps. Other various carnival games were also available. At 3:00 a.m. a basketball game was held between the students and the adults. After all this excitement, there was a large variety of food at the mess hall. After eating, students could enjoy dancing. In the beginning there was a live band, then Steve Warga took over with Music Spectrum. Throughout the morning, prizes were given away by Tom Kappas, who was impersonating “Hawkeye” from M’A S H. As the end of the morning neared, stu- dents began counting their earnings for the big auction. Mr. Kappas ran the auc- tion by taking bids on such prizes as ra- dios to televisions. After it was all over, most students felt that it was very worthwhile. Senior Randy Furniss keeps a close look on the dealer in a game of poker. Senior Shane Jensen is seen going through basic training before entering the party. Senior Jerry Pennington and Freshman Angie Bell take part in a game of blackjack. After Prom 27 Do snakes, scouts and llamas sound like fun? PHS Is A Melting Pot What would you say about a llama for a pet? Or maybe a huggable boa constric- tor? Or would you rather go to Australia? Or how about writing short stories? Well ... that’s what our students are this year: “interesting”. Freshman Tami Molck received a boa constrictor for her birthday from her mom. The snake does not have a name, but she refers to it as “Snake”. Snake is about 1-2 years old, and Tami doesn’t know what sex it is. (Kind of hard to see on a snake, huh?!) Tami feeds it every 3 weeks with live mice and gerbils. Senior Ed Mann and his family have a llama farm. It all started 7-8 years ago, when they bought llamas as a tourist at- traction. Now they’ve got 7 llamas, two of which, are babies. Llamas spit when mad, and Ed said that they often spit at each other when fighting over food. Once they even spit right in his face. Besides animals, PHS students have other interests. Sophomore Craig Wiles was selected by the Boy Scouts to go to Australia. He was among 3,000 other American scouts representing the United States, with a to- tal of 23,000 scouts from 89 different countries. They were there for the Big Jamboree, which was a big camp where they had physical activities, and learned about different cultures and customs. Junior John Newell is a real talent when it comes to writing poems and short sto- ries. He has written about 15-16 stories and 88 poems. He is planning on sending some of his work to a publisher. Junior John Newell takes advantage of the school library to enjoy his hobby; writing. Freshman Tami Molck shows off her boa constrictor, ‘‘Snake . Senior Ed Mann and Freshman Heather Mann pose with their spitting llamas. Interesting Students 29 Class of '88 says goodbye to PHS on May 15 115th Class Graduates 101 On May 15th, 101 seniors said their final goodbyes to PHS at the 115th Com- mencement. The ceremony was held at 3 p.m. in the high school gym. Blue and gold were the senior class colors. The class flower was a baby blue rose dipped in gold. The Class of 1988 chose, “Give to the world the best that you have and the best will come back to you,” as their class motto. Father Paul York gave the invocation and the benediction. The baccalaureate address was delivered by Rev. Allen Wooters. Student speakers were Roxi Bradway, Jon Reimer, Michelle Hughes, David Klanecky, and Dawn Stoehr. Honor graduates were Roxi Bradway, Jonathan Reimer, Dawn Stoehr, Troy Fer- dig, Michelle Hughes, David Klanecky, Dan Cahalane, Kelly Ogle, Tony Aber- crombie, Angie McGraw, Karen Faris, Jeanne Carmicheal, Heather Giles, Ember Gogerty, Lynn Harter, Lara Scholten, Kris Fornoff, Laura Shown, and Toby Shanks. Entertainment was provided by the high school chorus. They sang, Showing Us The Way.” Senior Laura Shown sang,“I Believe,” and Jon Reimer per- formed a cello solo called “Preludio-Fan- tasia.” Seniors Deanne Durkin, Lara Scholten, Clarice Emick, and Laura Shown gave their final performance for PHS with a quartet called, “Hold On to Your Dream.” The Junior Class stewards were Matt Meyer, Cynthia Nichols, Niel Nielsen, Sarah Grimm, Julie Kastrick, Nancy Meier, John Russell, Bryan Schaffer, Jon Pestel, and Chenelle Gruhn. Waiting anxiously in the graduation line-up are Seniors Jason Tellinghuisen. Lisa Thor- stad, Dave Tesarek. Candye Barnhouse and Scott Millington. 30 Graduation Student speakers for the Class of '88 were Roxi Bradway. David Klanecky. Michelle Hughes. Dawn Stoehr. and Jon Reimer. Senior Patty Baker walks proudly across the stage to receive her diploma. Graduation practice was held on May 13 following the annual Senior Breakfast. Shown here are April Beasley and David Klanecky practicing for the big day. The Senior Class of 1988 listens attentively to the baccalaureate address given by Rev. Allan Wooters. Graduation 31 Juniors Matt Meyer, James Ashford and Mike Butterfield take some time out in chem- istry to look at a magazine. Juniors Carol Bruggeman and Jason Chi- coine have a little fun in Journalism I class. This year there were two Journalism I classes offered, opposed to one as in past years. Seniors Therese Farth, Ronda Wyldes. Toby Shanks, and Junior Karen Blackwell dress up for drama class. Many students took drama as a fourth year of English. Senior Kylee Schaffer puts one of the new computers to use. I think the new re- quirements for graduation will help pre- pare students for college and make them take classes to further enrich their skills. — Senior Vicki Toman Ac bd m.cs laki.

Mrs. Audrey Smith, who previously taught Journalism and English II, is now teaching English III and IV. Mrs. Janet Meisinger, formerly the librar- ian, is now the guidance secretary. Here she helps Sophomore Dan Watson. Sophomore Travis Fincher (1) and Fresh- man Vince Martin (4) keep the ball away from St. Joe players during their soccer game. 34 Changes Scheduling, graduation requirements What's Been Going On? This year at PHS there were many changes. Students started school at 8:30 instead of 8:35 and schedules were prepared solely by computer instead of the arena scheduling sys- tem we had in past years. Also, if a student left or entered school in the middle of the day, they had to sign in or out in the office. Miss Chris May, the new Journal- ism English teacher, was also a Ju- nior Class sponsor. Mr. Tom Ridder was the football coach and weight lifting instructor. Mr. Steve Daniell was the boys’ basketball coach, boys’ soccer coach and 9th grade P.E. instructor. There were 11 students in draft- ing this year. In drafting, students learned to measure objects, then draw them to scale. Senior Ed Mann said, “I think drafting is a worth while class to take, even if you are not going into that field. Seniors were the first to graduate with the new requirements of having 210 credits, four years of English and no required drivers ed. Also, seniors couldn’t graduate mid-term anymore. Also, to be eligible for a sport one must pass at least four classes. There was also homeroom,” where students went to their teach- er-adviser right after first hour for ten minutes.

To reach this goal, our school offers a wide range of courses to each individual student, depending on what they choose to take. We also have thirty- three teachers in our school that take time to teach each course. There are a total of ten course departments in our school. They are business, English foreign language, fine arts, home economics, science, social studies, special education and vocational. To graduate, students must take a few required courses. The re- quired courses that one must take are one year of ninth grade physical education, two years of math, two years of science, three years of so- cial studies and four years of Eng- lish. Students also need to take a number of electives to fulfill their needed credits. There are also some college courses that students may take. They are Math 309 and pre-calcu- lus. Students that enroll in these courses actually earn college credits and are able to transfer to the col- lege they cfoose to attend. So, whether you want to be a doctor, musician, teacher, engineer, scientist, businessman, etc ... our high school can provide the courses for you.

Freshmen Tyson Hadley, Jennifer Rardin and Stephanie Holman prepare themselves for a day on the slopes. P.E. classes go to Crescent Ski Lodge Freshmen Leam To Ski Every year, freshmen are required to take certain classes. One of these classes is ninth grade physical edu- cation. This class involves a variety of sports activities in which the stu- dents take part. One of these sports activities, which may be considered the high- light of the year, is downhill skiing. The Physical Education Department takes time out to go through a mini- unit on this sport. During this unit, students get directly involved with skiing by watching films, watching and participating in demonstrations, practicing safety factors. At the end of the unit students go on an actual ski trip. This year, freshmen students trav- eled to Crescent Ski Lodge for a day in the snow. Once students arrived at the lodge, they rented their equipment, buckled their boots, dressed for the weather, snapped on their skis and grabbed their poles. They were now ready to ap- ply what they had learned in P.E. class and went out to hit the slopes.

Students show off talent at Open House PHS Yearly Open House On Friday, March 18th, an Open House was held at the Plattsmouth High School. The open house lasted from 6-9:30 p.m. and was open for parents and other interested peo- ple. The areas involved were: wood- shop, autos, metals, home econom- ics, food service and also a school- wide art display. The open house was held in con- junction with the Knights of Colum- bus, who sponsored a fish fry in the cafeteria. The proceeds from the fish fry were split between Knights of Columbus and the vocational de- partment. Foods service classes sold brownies in the hallways and were associated with the PHS bake shop. General home economic students dicMemonstratio area. Mr. Stewart’s students dem- onstrated the cadcam system that was recently purchased with the Carl Perkins fund, while Mr. Wise had Krista Phillips show weaving and Jeff Albers exhibit airbrush. Parents could visit with instruc- tors from the spring Community Education classes, and also register for them. The housing class displayed floor plans and three dimensional draw- ings of rooms, as well as color schemes. There were a lot of other things going on that Friday, so this year's Open House did not attract as many people as last year’s Open House. But those who came really enjoyed the students' work. 43 Miss Paap gives student council award to Freshman Cory Larson.

Students strive for excellence Honored At Honors Might Students are always being recog- nized for their achievement and awards in sports, but not much is heard about academic achieve- ment. For this there is honors night, where students are given apprecia- tion for a job well done in the area of academics. One of the awards given was the President’s Academic Fitness Award, given by Mr. Strobel to sen- iors who have met certain standards in high school. During the year there have been many active clubs or organizations. And in these, many awards have been achieved. Mrs. Nelson pre- sented many awards to members of her FBLA organization for accom- plishment at conventions; such as Lynn Harter, who took second place for a speech at state. Vocational awards were also giv- en for awards won at the Peru In- dustrial Arts Contest. Mr. Sauder gave awards to Roger Campbell and Bob Hoyt for taking second in the small engine division. And Mr. Stewart gave awards in the metals area. Awards were also given for per- fect attendance, good grades, Eng- lish, student council, and also for history. 45 «The banquet is held to provide an opportunity for the school and students to recognize those employers who have given their time and effort to employ students throughout the 1987-88 school year. ■■ — Bev Harter Senior Richard Ratzburg and Junior Brad Singer look for a place to sit at the Employer Employee Banquet.

Class Flower: Baby-blue rose dipped in gold Class Colors: Blue and Gold Seniors Face Challenges With Pride Another year has come and gone and the class of 1988 has finally made it to graduation. The senior year was a special yet difficult time for seniors. The year is a time when friends are to be made and cher- ished, while the race continues to choose what college to go to or some other decisions that will affect the future. The senior year took on many new directions, these changes oc- cured in the semester finals, the dai- ly schedules, and most important, graduation requirements. The class of 1988 was the first to graduate with the new requirements. These new requirements put the pressure on some students who did not take that extra English class or the peo- ple who could just not make it through government in their junior year, while other seniors coasted through the year without worry. Senior Krista Phillips said of the new requirements, “The requirements are just something I have to get done to graduate.” The change of the class schedule was more subtle. A homeroom was added between first and second hours. Some students thought this was like another class period while others thought it was a time to relax for the next class. Senior Gary Carter said, “The homeroom is a waste of ten minutes, because they could read the announcements in another class.” The new directions continued throughout the year. Some were mi- nor while others were more dramat- ic. All the seniors faced the new di- rections with pride and dignity.

Finally, you have the privi- lege of being an upper-classman, which means you get that hard- earned, long-awaited respect from the under-classmen. You get to pick on the freshmen and have your locker upstairs. By this time, you know all the rules and regulations of PHS. However, being a junior can also mean added responsibility. Taking the ACT tests, deciding on colleges, and working toward future goals are all things that a junior has to start thinking about. Most juniors have a driver’s li- cense, so this can mean an in- creased social life. Cruising and traveling out of town are popular ac- tivities in Plattsmouth. “I met a lot of people when I got my license be- cause I cruised around all of the time, said Junior Stephanie King. Jobs play an important part in a junior’s life. Money is needed to pay for social events, car upkeep, and other expenses. Plattsmouth has a variety of restaurants and shops that hire teenagers. Junior Brad Singer works at BJ’s Family Restau- rant. “I need the money to fix up my car.” Juniors are also the ones who are in charge of putting on prom. They hold fundraisers and decide on the theme and location of prom. All in all, the junior year of high school is probably one of the best. You have all of the privileges of be- ing an upperclassman without the pressure of being a senior. You can sit back and relax, because you have another year to party, and have fun before you have to go out into the big world.

Many doors are opened, which means the broaden- ing of new horizons. These sophomores have taken their first step. They are no longer constantly being teased, prodded and analyzed ... such as the life of a freshman. They have more freedom to choose what classes to take. A se- lect few can be inducted into Na- tional Honor Society or be on Drill Team. Others are chosen as Prom Servers. For the majority of these tenth- graders, being a sophomore means turning sixteen, and ultimately, get- ting that long-awaited drivers’ li- cense. No longer do they have to bum rides off of friends or walk where they need to go. The acquisi- tion of a drivers' license opens a whole new world to these sopho- mores. Being a sophomore also means being on the brink of “upperclass- menhood”. All they have to do is survive through this one year, then they will be able to enjoy upstairs lockers and all the other benefits of being an upperclassman. Bryna Krauth says that being a sophomore means, “You’re older than a freshman, but you’re still an under-classman.” Sophomores may find that their classes are harder than they were the year before. Shelley Zwei- bahmer says that “It’s a lot of work because this year I’m doubling up on my math classes.” Also, every year one sophomore is chosen to attend the Hugh O’Brien Leadership Foundation. This year, Kerry Carpenter was se- lected to attend. Although it’s only their second year in high school, sophomores be- gin to realize how fast time goes by. They are now ready to begin ... in a new direction.

Morris Sophomores 65 £El%.E-5 -H ME nQ Freshmen Face Their Toughest Year The first year of high school is known as the toughest in a stu- dent’s life. Freshmen are picked on by sophomores, who have miracu- lously risen above the lowly “frosh status; trash-canned by juniors, who feel it is their duty to initiate these newcomers; and for the most part, ignored by seniors, who are too busy with graduation requirements to be bothered. They did all the normal freshmen activities - the P.E. ski trip, the com- puter bus - and the ever popular “side-step the trash-can.” But un- derneath it all, this class was strangely unique. Freshmen stood up at the first pep rally for the class battlecries, an unusual act in intself, unless one considers that there was a freshman cheerleader, Linda Vondras, on the varsity squad. They showed more spirit than the previous freshmen classes, and seemed to be more confident of themselves than was expected. This may have been a result of the Art Club’s project to paint the room numbers outside the doors, which put an end to a lot of the confusion in trying to find the right room in four minutes or less. This type of “Lost Student” paranoia was at an all- time low with this class. Of course, they all heard the hor- ror stories - 5000 word essays on the effects of the Communist Doc- trine on the English speaking na- tions of the world; math problems that needed a six computer tie-up to solve - but they took it all in stride, knowing that they would struggle through it and rise above the chal- lenges presented to them.

Devilmania, and by regularly attend- ing extracurricular activities. A new direction this year is the addition of four faculty members. Mr. Steve Daniell, Physical Educa- tion; Mr. Kirk Linder, Special Educa- tion; Miss Chris May, English 1, Journalism 1, 11; and Mr. Tom Rid- der, Weightlifting. Miss May took over the Journal- ism classes so Mrs. Audrey Smith was able to teach the English 4 classes and become head of the English Department. Mrs. Janet Meisinger became Guidance Secre- tary after the resignation of Mrs. Pat Porter. The faculty guides students to new directions through lectures, notes and assignments. Teachers also have outside activities. Mr. Wise rides a bicycle and Mr. Kappas enjoys fishing and collecting model trains. Mr. Reimer, Mr. Priebe, and Mr. Shirmer have green thumbs and enjoy gardening. Mr. Schirmer kneels for the camera In his 2nd hour computer science class.

Tension mounts as the Plattsmouth Blue Devil foot- ball team runs out onto the field, ready for action. This year, the varsity football team finished the season with a re- cord of 4-5. We had a pretty good season but we could have done bet- ter. We improved with each game and the younger players gained ex- perience as we went along, com- mented Senior Richard Ratzburg. The team faced a major change this year. Varsity Head Coach Tom Ridder was new to PHS, coming to us from the University of Nebraska- Omaha. He also taught at Omaha Roncalli. When asked about his most memorable game of the season, Coach Ridder said, The Gretna game because we were down 14-0 at the half and then we came back to win the game 17-14. It was our turning point.” Assistant coaches this year were Kirk Under, Jeff Wiles, and Doug Mitteis. Captains were Seniors Jim Herdlitchka, Chad Hart, and Dave Peters. Three people made the Eastern Midlands All-Conference team. They were Mike Mossey, Bill Lu- kash, and Troy Ferdig. Chad Hart was named as an honorable men- tion. Assistant football coach Kent Hutton looks on as the Plattsmouth varsity football team struts their stuff. Plattsmouth managed to hold Omaha Roncalli's Crimson Pride at 0-0 until the third quarter. Roncalli slipped past the Devils to win the game. 7-0. New to PHS this year was Varsity Football Head coach Tom Ridder.

PHS netters had a tough time get- ting started and ended the season with a 7-13 record. The team was young and inexpe- rienced, with only six varsity mem- bers returning and two seniors re- turning after missing the season be- fore. Highlighting the season was a third place finish in the Valley Invita- tional and a second round districts finish. All-Conference honors went to Kris Fornoff, and Honorable Men- tion was awarded to Stacy Schreiber. Fornoff finished the year off with 304 spikes and 98 blocks. Schreiber had a total of 633 sets. Other strong hitters for the Lady Devils were Ember Gogerty, Marcya Levering, Kelly Ogle, Nancy Meier and Tina Barkus. PHS setter Roxi Bradway finished the season with 528 sets. Back row players for the Blue Devils were Rachelle Markham and Tammy Gonyea. As a team the stats improved considerably. The netters had 1203 spikes as compared to 786 the year before. The two setters combined for 1162 sets, 1108 of which were hit.

Chris Bradway was named most valuable cross country runner by placing highest at meets and duals during the season. Bradway placed the team third at districts by finish- ing seventh, good enough for state. The team consisted of Chris Brad- way, Jaron Bergin, Jamie Hudson, Craig Wiles, Dave Tesarek, and Tom Hyde. At state, Bradway placed 26th to lead the team to a 13th place finish. Senior Dawn Stoehr, girls’ most valuable cross country runner and captain, became the first girls’ cross country runner at PHS to qualify for state. The girls’ team couldn't place after their sixth place finish at the PHS Invite because of an injury suf- fered by Roxanne Wiles at the Pius Invite. The season went on with the remaining runners placing individ- ually at meets and duals. Junior Marie Humphrey, Senior Dawn Stoehr and Freshman Danelle Brooke continued to improve at meets and duals. Stoehr made it to state by placing fifth at districts and Marie only missed state by one place. At state, Dawn placed 41st. Senior Dawn Stoehr moves ahead of a Pius runner at the PHS Invitational.

The first two games of the season proved to be interesting. Down by 20 against Roncalli, the Devils surged back to close the gap to sev- en. The Devils suffered yet another loss after jumping to a 19 point lead against Cathedral. The highlight of the season was a 10-point loss to state qualifier Elk- horn. Plattsmouth led by five with 3:02 left in the game. Elkhorn ex- ploded and turned back the Devil's upset bid. Senior Rick Draper led the Devils in rebounds, scoring, was named Most Valuable Player, Honorary Captain and All-Conference Honor- able Mention. Other awards went to Matt Mey- er, Most Improved Varsity Player; Doug Anderson, Hustle Award; Ja- mie Hudson, Most Improved Sopho- more. Senior Guard Dan Cahalane re- ceived the free throw award as well as led the team in assists with 56. Sophomore Ryan Johnson was sec- ond in scoring and Senior Devon Fulton collected 10 block shots on the season. Senior Devon Fulton jumps high on the opening tip-off against St. Alberts of Iowa.

If one person wasn’t scoring they contributed on de- fense, passing, or rebounding,” coach Neice Jochims said in a sum- mary of the season. The girls’ basketball team high- lighted their season with a 14-6 re- cord and carried themselves to the finals in districts play. The Lady Devils defeated Ashland 37-23 in the first round and Raymond Central 43-40 in the second round to ad- vance them to the finals against Wa- hoo. The Lady Devils were defeated 33-30. Senior Dawn Stoehr was unani- mously selected to the All-Confer- ence team for the second year. Sen- ior Kris Fornoff and Junior Nancy Meier were awarded honorable mention. Stoehr led the team in scoring with 283 points, assists with 86 and also pulled down 101 rebounds. An- other senior, Fornoff led with 57 steals and 124 rebounds. Senior Roxi Bradway helped out on defense with 47 steals and led the offense at point guard. Juniors Tammy Leger and Nancy Meier ad- ded extra help to the team with 111 points and 137 points respectively. Caroline Olson and Sophomore Jenny Church also added help on the court. The season didn’t quite go the way we planned, but overall it was a successful year,” summed up Stoehr. Senior Kris Fornoff recovers a loose ball during league action.

Carter, Reichart and Pecha advance to state Best Finish At PHS Invite A total of 32 athletes including eleven returning letterwinners made up this year's boys’ track team. Three of these athletes went on to compete at the state meet at Burke High in Omaha. Gary Carter, Carl Reichart and Ryan Pecha advanced their way to the state track meet. Carter took 7th with a throw of SO’IOVi”. Rei- chart and Pecha failed to place in the triple jump competition. The highlight of the season was a second place finish at the tracksters own Plattsmouth Invitational. PHS had struggled finishing only as high at 8th in previous meets coming into the invite. With performances from Chad Hart, two 2nds; Chris Brad- way, 3rd and 4th; Cary Carter, 1st and 2nd; and Carl Reichart, 2nd, the boys were able to hold off a strong Blair team for second. Plattsmouth went on to suffer up and down performances. A bright spot in the year was the freshmen- sophomore dual with Blair. The un- derclassmen ran away with a 98 to 36 win. Junior Carl Reichart finished the year as conference runner-up in the long jump. The 400 meter relay team consisting of Chris Bradway, Chad Hart, Corey Duckworth, and Bill Lukash captured third place.

Senior Roxi Bradway was a dou- ble qualifier in the 400m dash and the 800m run. Bradway claimed 8th at state in the 800. Sophomore Tina Cahalane was another two-event qualifier. She ran the 100m high hurdles and the 300m intermediate hurdles. Junior Nancy Meier also palced 8th at state. She claimed second in her preliminary heat to make it to the finals in the 100m high hurdles. The only field event person to make the state meet this year was Junior Tammy Gonyea. She heaved a throw of 36’ 1 ” in the shot to claim a personal best and 9th place overall at state. The final qualifier was freshman sprinter Linda Vondras, who gained valuable experience by qualifying in the 100m dash. Three records fell this year. Meier broke her own record in the 100m high hurdles with a time of 15.9; Ca- halane now owns the 300m interme- diate hurdle record at 49.2, pre- viously set by Meier in ’87; and Bradway claimed the 800m record, previously set by Darlene Snyder in ’77. The new record stands at 2:22.2. Captains for the year were Stacy Schreiber, Kris Fornoff, and Brad- way. Sprinter Linda Vondras guts out her pre- liminary heat at the state meet.

Linda Vondras Soccer becomes new Plattsmouth sport Plattsmouth Called football in the rest of the world, the United States calls it soc- cer, but whatever you want to call it, soccer made its appearance this year as an official school sponsored activity both in Plattsmouth and the rest of the state. Plattsmouth spon- sored both a boys varsity and a girls varsity soccer teams. The Plattsmouth teams played area schools for competition. The schools ranged from Cathedral to Roncalli. Although the final scores of the games didn't reflect much on the part of Plattsmouth, the Blue Devils did accomplish many of their goals despite that the Plattsmouth teams consisted of many new inex- perienced members to the sport and their opponents were larger Soccer Kicks schools with more experienced players. The girls’ team hope in the begin- ning of the season was to score at least one goal during the season. The girls fulfilled their wish in their first game against Iowa’s St. Al- berts. The boys’ team wanted to com- pete to the best of their ability and get experience playing the different schools so they’d be prepared for next year’s season. Although only winning one game, they believe that next year's season will be more pro- ductive than the first. Jenny Church, sophomore, makes an- other save as goalie.

Marching excellent, concert superior Concert Season Strong Even though band is offered as a class, it’s considered to be more of an extra-curricular activity because of all the out-of-school time it in- volves. Beginning in July, there was sum- mer band practice so everyone would be ready to march in the Cass and Otoe county fair parades, three King Korn Karnival parades, and all the halftime shows at home football games. This year's drum majors were Senior Cindy Toman and Junior Shannon Gansemer. Feature twirler was Senior April Beasley. During the marching season, the Blue Devils received excellent rat- ings at both the Plattsmouth Invita- tional and at state marching con- test. Concert season proved to be more fruitful, as the band received a superior rating at the District Music Contest held in Auburn on April 22. The next day, Plattsmouth musi- cians brought home 30 superiors and 11 excellents for solos and en- sembles. There were five PHS musicians who were accepted to the 1987 All- State Band. They were Seniors Cin- dy Toman and Michelle Hughes, and Junior Kim Coffee on clarinet; Junior Michele Lewis on oboe; and Senior Randy Furniss on tuba. Michelle Hughes, Cindy Toman, and Randy Furniss were also mem- bers of the 1988 UNO Honor Band. The annual band awards banquet took place on May 12 at Godfa- ther’s Pizza. Directors Skip Kull and John Brooks presented Michelle Hughes and Cindy Toman with the Outstanding Band Member Award for their achievements in band.

The varsity choir received an ex- cellent for their performance of “Three Madrigals” by Emma Lou Diemer and “Adoramus Te” by Norman Greson. On April 24, students that com- peted with solos, duets, ensembles, trios, and quartets met at the high school to load the bus at 6:30 a.m. The performance times began at 8:06 a.m. and ended at 4:06 p.m., with a performance every six min- utes. Those students who received a superior for solos at contest were: Deanne Durkin, Kim Coffee, Heather Hoffman, Matt Chebatoris, Kim Hamlin, Jonathan Reimer, Bob- by Strouf, Jenny Wehrbein, Jenny Huyck, Todd Stuckey, Lynette Bab- cock, Chris Stidham, Randy Furniss, Kris Fornoff, and Michelle Hughes. Over all, the band members who competed received 30 superiors and 11 excellents. The varsity chorus members who competed received three superiors, two excellents and one good. Senior Deanne Durkin comment- ed on the efforts of those students who competed, “Many hours of re- hearsal paid off. We shared each other’s success.” Cathi Furniss and Jenny Wehrbein prac- tice their duet for contest while performing at a band concert. 102 Music Contest Some superior winners at District Con- test were Senior Randy Furniss, Sophomore Laurie Bresnahan, and Junior Bobby Strouf. The varsity choir has attempted to receive a superior at contest for three consecutive years. The choir received two excellents and one good for their performance of Three Madrigals and Adoramus Te”. Pictured are band members who received superiors at contest for either solo, duet, trio, or ensemble performances.

Music Contest 103 Smaller' squad makes teamwork easier Cheerleaders Add Spirit The PHS cheerleading squad got off to a great start this year at the Universal Cheerleading Association summer camp in Lincoln, Nebraska. The girls received several honors there and Tina Cahalane was named All-Star Jumper at the camp. This year, the squad was cut from 21 to 12 varsity cheerleaders. Freshmen and reserve squads were eliminated. All 12 girls cheered at football games. For the winter sports, how- ever, the girls divided up into 3 squads. They were: Boys’ basket- ball; head cheerleader Michele Nor- ris, Tina Cahalane, Jenny Church, and Bryna Krauth. Wrestling; cap- tain Tammy Dasher, Barb McDan- eld, Heather Hoffman, and Rachelle Markham. Girls’ sports; captain Ju- lie Kastrick, Kim Hamlin, Linda Von- dras, and Lynn Harter. Rhonda Heim was sponsor. The cheerleaders held several pep rallies this year to fire up the student body. The annual bonfire pep rally was held in the evening at the end of Main Street. At the Devil- mania games, the cheerleaders dressed as football players and per- formed a skit. The girls also competed in the Metro Spectacular Pom and Cheer Championships in December. They took home the Class B first place trophy. Senior head captain Michele Nor- ris had this to say about the year: “We had a great year. The smaller squad helped us to work together and this showed at camp, games, and in competition. We did really well all year and I was proud to be captain of such a talented squad.” Senior Michele Norris and Sophomore Jenny Church fire up the crowd during a time-out.

The team shows coordination, vitality and talent,” complimented Mrs. Au- drey Smith. The girls received many compliments this year from faculty and the student body. One reason attention was drawn to the girls was the addition to their uniforms. Instead of just a gray skirt and navy sweater, the team wore a white vest for their indoor perfor- mances. Metallic blue and silver pom poms added a little sparkle to the dances and drew a lot of atten- tion to the squad. In December they traveled to Ral- ston to claim second place in the Metro Spectacular sponsored by Jostens. Senior captain Roxi Brad- way also won the All-Metro Super- star (pom division). This award was given to the best dancer in Class A, B and C. A new and rather unusual fun- draiser sponsored by the drill team was the slave auction. The girls were auctioned off by Mr. Tom Kappas for as little as $5 to as much as $27. Slaves were on duty from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. the next day. The members also sponsored a two day car wash at Vic’s Bar. Performances this year were to a variety of songs. From the funky sounds of the Beastie Boys and Prince to the rock songs of Def Lep- pard and Aerosmith, the girls prac- ticed hard at 7:30 every morning, dancing at both boys’ and girls' home games during basketball. The girls also teamed up with the cheerleaders for the “Super Stud Shuffle” during Homecoming. 106 Drill Team Devilettes perform to Insecurity” by Sta- cey Q for competition in Ralston.

In October, tryouts were held for the One-Act play contest. The play was called “A Canterbury Tale from the Wife of Bath,” and was written by Herman Amman. Cast members were Toby Shanks, Michele Norris, Therese Farth, Devon Fulton, Ronda Wyldes, Chenelle Gruhn, Thomas Hyde, Dale Lingle, and Chris Stidham. The players competed at the EMC one-act play contest at Norris High on November 24 and districts were held December 1 in Nebraska City. Speech practices began in Janu- ary. Students on the team this year were Shelly Toman and Chenelle Gruhn (humorous prose); Lynn Harter and Cynthia Nichols (extem- poraneous and persuasive speak- ing); Jason Chicoine and Jason Tel- linghuisen (entertainment speak- ing); Deanne Durkin and Chris Stid- ham (poetry); and Lara Scholten and Devon Fulton (informative speaking). Other members were J.J. Morris and Therese Farth (duet acting); and Toby Shanks, Michele Norris, Chenelle Gruhn, Therese Farth, and Cathi Furniss (Oral Interpretation of Drama). The team attended three con- tests. Districts were held on March 19 at Roncalli High. Finalists were Lara Scholten, Jason Tellinghuisen, Deanne Durkin, and Jason Chi- coine. PHS sent one person to the State Speech Contest in Lincoln. Lara Scolten’s informative speech on cystic fibrosis earned two superiors at the state meet.

At Christmas, they sold chocolate Santas and M Ms to raise money for the State Confer- ence in Lincoln. The State Conference took place March 17-19. Students competed in food marketing, advertising ser- vices, and general merchandise marketing. FBLA (Future Business Leaders of America) members were involved in many things. They sponsored a successful Scavenger Hunt in No- vember for the Community Food Pantry. They also had the School Store Paper Place, the biggest money making project that the club had, located in Mary Nelson’s typ- ing room. Members sold M Ms to pay for registration and hotel ex- New FBLA members got their lockers decorated with streamers and a sign like Sen- ior Jeane Hay. penses for the FBLA State Leader- ship Conference, which took place in April. Seven members went to the Con- ference, they were: Deanne Durkin, Deana Conn, Angie McGraw, Lynn Harter, Heather Giles, Shonna Bro- derson, and Debbie Danner. These students competed in skill and ob- jective business events to campaign for the state offices. The FBLA chapters attended educational and motivational seminars. The Plattsmouth chapter won first place for the largest percentage in- crease in local chapter membership. Lynn Harter placed second at the conference in impromptu speaking and went on to represent Nebraska at the National Leadership Confer- ence, which took place in Cincinnati in June. 110 DECA FBLA Senior Lynn Harter practices speech tech- niques in preparation for conference.

DECA FBLA 111 Teaching, Temperament, banking and more FHA Students Learning The Future Homemakers of America (FHA) did many things dur- ing the year. All home economic classes had an in-class chapter of FHA, for which each class did different pro- jects. Foods and Nutrition worked with schools and groups in the com- munity to promote good nutrition; Child Care did teacher-aide pro- grams; Housing toured houses in the community; Independent Living hosted speakers on banking, hous- ing, personal temperament; and Home Economics had speakers on personal improvement. Students did projects for S.E.A.R.C.H. (Student Events Achieving Recognition in Consumer Economics) ranging from child care to food. The medal winners were: Stacy Read, Kim Humpal and Cindy Pohlmeier on Food and Nutrition, a silver medal; Allen Scheer on Food and Nutrition, a silver medal; and Clarice Emick on Child Abuse, a bronze medal. Sophomore Stacy Read said, “While I was at the State Leader- ship Convention I learned how to get FHA popular in our community, be a friend, and how to receive state recognition.” Students went to Lin- coln for State Leadership Conven- tion for 2-3 days to learn more about FHA and the events they could do. A related chapter, under the di- rection of Jaqueline Gaebel, were the Food Service I, II and III classes. They cooked and served for various events such as the dinner theater and the Vocational Open House.

A select few go on into Journalism II the fol- lowing year. The publishing of the Platter and Plattionian is the responsibility of the Journalism II staff. Toby Shanks and Dan Cahalane were the editors of Plattsmouth High’s bi-monthly paper, the Platter. The staff consist- ed of: layout editor Roxi Bradway; copyreaders Krista Phillips and Jason Tellinghuisen; proofreader Deanne Durkin; darkroom Tony Abercrombie; reporters Jackie Brown, Therese Farth, Michelle Hughes, Kathy Ehle, Tom Hyde, Lynn Fibish and Stacy Krauth. Michelle Hughes was the editor of the Plattionian, PHS’s yearbook. Assistant editor was Tony Aber- crombie. Deadline was an unpopular word in the Journalism II class. Deadlines for Platter articles, rough and final drafts, were sometimes close to Plattionian, deadlines. In addition to the Journalism staff being busy, the Math Club has also been busy. In February the Math Club com- peted in the Creighton Math Con- test. Jon Reimer and Michelle Hughes received 2nd place in the Leap Frog Relay. Dan Cahalane and Jon Reimer finished in the top four of the fina- lists at the Computer Expo '88 Competition at McMillian Jr. High School in Omaha. Computer Expo '88 addressed the growing need for computer technology. Tony Abercrombie was the photographer for the Platter and Plattionian for a period of two years.

Journalism Math 115 Cooked cactus creates sticky situation French Spanish Plan Trip A new direction taken by most clubs this year was automatic mem- bership. That is to say, if you were in a class, and they had a club, you were also in that club. And both French and Spanish classes were no exception. During the year, Spanish class club managed to take time out of their busy schedule to enjoy the finer things of Spanish living, just short of buying a hacienda. They had a Christmas party at which they made and destroyed pinatas, which was a big smash. They also cooked cactus, or cacti, whichever you pre- fer, a delicate meal to prepare to say the least. Ralph Tarnasky, the club’s sponsor, let it slip that tenta- tive plans were being considered to take a trip to Mexico, but nothing further was said. French class club was equally exciting. In between conjugating verbs, they made plans to sell lolli- pops, and discussed the possibility of journeying across the ocean to the land of their dreams - and their tests. Virginia Paap, the group's sponsor, decided to explore the idea herself, waiting until school was out before acting. She and a few others visited “The Continent” - France in particular. Unfortunately for anxious French club members, they’ll have to wait until her return for the final verdict on the matter. It hasn’t been revealed whether or not automatic membership will be in effect in the years to come, but it did boost club populations, and gave a lot of people something to do - or at least claim they were doing. Spanish Club members enjoy a tasty meal cooked by Sponsor Ralph Tarnasky. ✓ FRENCH CLUB Front Row- Miss Virginia Paap, Jill Mrasek. Charity Abercrombie. Lynette Babcock, Heather Giles. Angie McGraw.

The Art Club is sponsored by art teacher Tom Wise. The Art Club visited several places this year. The club went to Omaha to view the Gold and Silver Treasures from the Thyssen-Borne- misza collection at the Joselyn Art Museum. They also visited the house of Mr. and Mrs. Prohaska and viewed the process of silk screen- ing. At the Eastern Midlands Confer- ence Art Show, they were shown the process of bronze casting. The PHS Metals Club was also involved in numerous activities. To raise funds for the club this year, the Metals Club sponsored the Sadie Hawkins Day Dance, and they also raised money by sponsoring a welding rod guessing contest. The Plattsmouth Metals Club is spon- sored by Lyle Stewart. The Metals Club attended the Peru Arts Fair, where they compet- ed in several different events. The club received several purple ribbons and a lot of first place ribbons. The club also went on field trips to the Outboard Marine Corporation and the Kawasaki plant. Sophomore David Harrison was quoted as saying, “I had fun being in the Metals Club. I liked going to the places we went and had a good time. I think it helped me decide what I want to be.” Senior Lara Scholten finishes painting the new room numbers. METALS CLUB First row: Sponsor Lyle Stewart. Teresa Hamlin. Shane Jensen. Roger Campbell.

A Council Of Officers This past year, the Student Coun- cil and class officers have worked very hard to keep everybody in the school happy. The Student Council sponsored two dances: the Holiday Ball and Homecoming. Members also helped incoming freshmen get acquainted with the school proce- dures and the school itself during the annual Freshmen Orientation. They helped raise, along with the senior class officers, $113 after the unfortunate theft of visitor Jennifer Farth’s wallet; Jennifer is foreign ex- change-student Therese Farth’s sis- ter. And after that, they raised enough money to reupholster the lounge chairs in the library. Class officers, however, are an- other story. According to Freshmen Sponsor Connie Gonyea, “The highlight of the year is when we get our group picture taken!” Sopho- more Sponsor Charles Caverzagie had little to say about his class’s activities, other than they helped out during Devilmania week. The juniors have obviously been busy all year long with prom, so they had little time to do anything else. The senior class has been a bit busier than most. The officers were in charge of the selection of the class motto, col- ors, and flower, as well as the design for the graduation announcements. They gave ideas to the after-prom committee, and class President Da- vid Klanecky spoke at the com- mencement ceremonies. They also organized the planting of a tree in memory of Susan Walters, who would have graduated that year. Junior officer Tina Barkus ponders the in- tricacies of prom planning during a break in food service. 120 Student Council Class Officers Juniors Niel Nielsen and Matt Meyer hang streamers for prom on the day of the event.

The induction dinner took place March 29 at the Plattsmouth High School gym. The new members were: Jeff Sautter, Tina Cahalane, Jenny Church, Bryna Krauth, John Horn, David Rohan, Jamie Hudson, Kerry Carpenter, Shelley Zweibahmer, Chris Stidham, Roxanne Wiles, Lau- rie Bresnahan, J.J. Morris, and Larry Kress. Mary Caverzagie was the sponsor. Members also attended a dinner theater April 27 at the Fire- house Dinner Theater. The students watched a play entitled “The Nerd.” This year’s officers were David Klanecky, president; Troy Ferdig, vice president; Michelle Hughes, secretary; and Jon Reimer, treasur- er. Present officers are President Niel Nielsen, Vice President Matt Meyer, Secretary Julie Kastrick, and Treasurer Cindy Nichols. The Mock Trial had a successful year. Team members were Krista Phillips, Lynn Harter, Jeff Sautter, Chris Stidham, James Ashford, and Susan Flint. Bev Harter was the sponsor and Rich Harter and Chris Malcom were the coaches. The team won their districts and proceeded to go on to the regionals, where they lost to Omaha-Gross. Krista Phillips, co-captain, said this about the Mock Trial year. “It was the first time that we have gone that far, and I was extremely pleased with it.” Junior James Ashford and Senior Lynn Harter take a short break from a Mock Trial practice.

PHSers still man- aged to “Have a Great Year. In choosing a yearbook theme, we had to come up with something that showed how the 1987-88 school year was differ- ent from past years. PHS has experienced many changes this year — from new policies to new teachers and new sports. That's how we came up with “A New Direction.” With so many changes within one year, PHS definitely has headed in a new direction. There were changes in every aspect. In athletics there were two new coaches, a new sport, and PHS's first freshman wrestler to place at state. In organizations, FBLA had a major increase in membership and the band got new uniforms. Also, there was only a varsity cheerleading squad instead of three separate squads consisting of varsity, j.v., and freshmen. In the classrooms, there were several new teachers, other teachers instructing classes they have never taught before; and of course, drafting. Then there were the new policies dealing with graduation and it’s requirements, silent reading, and homeroom. Some students didn’t like the new policies, but they soon got over it as they settled into the year. Senior Tony Abercrombie got a bad case of spring fever and decided to turn his car into a convertible. 142 Closing YEAR ENl) HOLDS NEW DIRECTIONS A new activity for the freshmen was learn- ing how to square dance in P.E. class. Trying to learn the right moves are Jenni Grumbley. Richard Thornton, Danelle Brooke, and Christian Thiede. Michelle Hughes has it written on her, uh. face that she is proud to be a senior.
