New band uniforms and a new van were among items purchased. The Scotus students again devoted time to sales. The sophomore candy bar sales and junior magazine sales were successful. A senior high record was broken for raffle ticket sales. Scotus also competed well in activities as many teams did well at state com- petitions. The school year was a celebration at Scotus High School. Top - National Honor Society baked, decorated, and sold 175 dozen cookies for a service project.

At Scotus the tradition of aca- demics continues. The eighth period classes kept students busy studying, reading, writing, and, of course, arith- metic. 6 The Eucharist plays a big rale in our lires at school Left - Fr.

Right - Scott Heimes distributes communion to Chris Becher. 8 Celebrating the Eucharist is al- ways a big part of the Scotus school year. The Campus Ministry organizes the masses with candles, music, slides, and inspirational readings. This school year began when Scotus along with St. Bonaventure’s, St. Isi- dore's, and St. Anthony's schools to celebrate Columbus' Education Week at Frankfurt Square. All of our masses followed this same tradition of excellence and contributed to the Christian aspects of the school year. A new addition to the year was Saturday midnight masses at St. Bo- naventure church. Because of the busy schedules and the conve- nience of this mass, it became a big hit among the students who were able to celebrate the Eucha- rist in an atmosphere which made them closer to each other. Fr. Wayne is responsible for the success of this mass. Top - Juli Hroza presents the volleyball dur- ing offertory.

Winning Tradition The winning tradition at Scotus Catholic continued throughout the 1986-1987 athletic year. The Shamrocks ath- letic program was very competitive in every sport they par- ticipated in. Whether it was girls or boys, day or night, a game, a match, or a tournament, the Shamrocks have a well- known reputation for outstanding athletic achievements. It didn't matter if the athletes cheered on the sideline, sat on the bench, or played the game, but everyone had their own memories of the past year in sports. 10 Left - Joe Determan, Ken Rinkol, and Pat Engelbert line up to talk to Telegram photographer Steve Kodad.

In China, college students protested, in American 60's style, their government's denial of their freedom. Massive riots were held by South African blacks, but apartheid continued. College students in South Korea protested the ways of their right-wing government and United States involvement in their country. In the United States, hundreds marched across the country to show their dedication to world peace. Terrorism decreased this year, while European corporations flubbed by dumping toxic waste in the Rhine River. The cocaine-related deaths of basketball star Len Bias and professional football player Don Rogers brought out the dangers of drug use in our society. Crack, a form of cocaine, was the new drug of choice. Even President and Mrs. Reagan went on TV to combat the problem. AIDS spread to more people, while sever- al cures failed. In August, new Supreme Court Justice William Rehnquist was inaugurated, but not without a fight from Senate Democrats. In the November Elec- tions, the Democrats gained control of the Senate, mak- ing President Reagan's last two years difficult ones. In our state. Democrat Helen Boosalis and Republican Kay Orr battled for the governorship, the first time two women were up for the post in our nations history. Mrs. Orr was the victor. Our local economy received a great boost this year. Appleton Electric opened, employing hundreds of Columbus residents. Several new restaurants opened also. Columbus was most proud of Donna Schieffer, a 1985 Scotus graduate, who represented Nebraska in the Miss America Pageant. Another Scotus graduate, Jill Reiser, was crowned 1986 Miss Columbus.

Topping off the fash- ion charts, at least at Scotus Central Catholic, was the ever so popular five button, forest green, smokey gray, and coal black plaid mini” skirt. However, trendy styles were the thing, as both classically old and flashly new fads took domi- nance over the students bodies and their money. Designer names such as Coca-Cola, Guess, Outback Red, and Pepe were king in the fashion world as they put out their own ver- sions of: jean jackets, jeans (especially faded ones), over- sized shirts, and mini skirts. But Goodwill Shopping was the place to be if you were looking for the old classics such as trench coats and the Blues Brothers' look. Moving down the fashion chart to the lower extremities of the body are the feet. This year s favorite clodhoppers to be seen in were: those comfy tenny runners called Reebok, short black chow boots with socks showing over the jeans, flats in every color imaginable, and yes even shoes that look like they came from a Raggedy Ann comic book. There were also some fads that were worn on the body but not on the feet. These include, even another new invention for the hair called banana clips, preppie glasses, friendship bracelets. Swatches, and yet for another year those popular sunglasses called shades. Finally, of course there were some fads that had nothing to do with fashion. Probably one of the most popular of these were the devilish little locker munchies that were so secretly popped into our mouths like drug addicts. There was also mousse, mousse, and more mousse. Mousse in make-up, colored for hair, suntan lotion, and reg- ular mousse. Other fads included sitting around at 11:30 P.M. watching David Letterman cut up our society.

Not only do people have to slave over homework or go to practice for speech or sports, but some must also go to after school jobs. The jobs which students have vary greatly: Some flip hamburgers at local fast food places; some sack groceries at supermarkets; others work at pizza places, still others are waiters and waitresses at area res- taurants; some even babysit, clean houses, or mow lawns. The minimum wages or starting wages for these jobs is $3.35, and this is what the ma- jority start at, with a hope at getting a slight raise. Columbus is a good place for finding jobs, with McDo- nalds, Burger King, and Hy-Vee be- ing the largest employers. It takes a dedicated person to have a job. They must balance their studies, activities, family, and social life with a job and still enjoy their high school days. However, stu- dents do not work their lives away, they all seem to find time to go out and do what they want. This year the students proved that you can have fun without our city being filled with dance spots and music arenas. Athletic events are one spot for students. On off nights, students enjoy hanging out at Burger King or 7-11. Going to movies is a favorite activity on the weeknights. Parties, wherever they were being held, provided the place to go for most. When the town is dead and one has nothing to do, many go cruising the mains or get some friends together and watch home movies to waste their time. 17 Left - Abie Bator gives Juli Hroza a victory hug after the State Championship Game.

Homecoming Students Tiptoe Through The Homecoming week of 1986 was eventful and exciting. October 7-10 was filled with activ- ities and events designed to instill enthusiasm in the student body. Tiptoe Through the Tulips” was chosen by the seniors as the theme. Because of no school on the Monday before Homecoming, the festivities were shortened by a day. This did not affect the stu- dents, however, as Tuesday brought Hat and Shade Day, start- ing the week on a good note. The traditional Hawaiian Day was held Wednesday. On Thursday, the day before the game and dance, a new day was instituted, D-Day. The an- nual Dress-up day was held Friday. Friday night, rain covered the area. The football team suffered a disappointing loss to Wahoo Neu- mann, 12-7. The loss did not put a damper on the festivities, howev- er, and the tension built at the cor- onation. Last year's king, Karl Hroza, and queen, Gina Sutko, along with attendants Sara Gonka, Erika Kottas, and Joey Eutenuer were on stage for the crowning of Homecoming King Pat Engelbert and Queen Lori Arlt. Music was provided by Casey Conrad and Tom Van Berg. Row 1 - Carrie Staroscik, Queen Lori Arlt, King Pat Engelbert, Top - Excited candidates hug each other, and Tammy Romanek.

The team had experience with returning let- termen Eric Beck, Kelly Beck, Ed Fehringer, Chad Labenz, and Dan Parolek, and newcomers Robbie Wade, Steve Souillere, Greg Hunt- er, Ron Kresha, Rich Schmidt, and Darby Staub. The team was third at the Albi- on Invite, second at the Shamrock Invite, and fourth at the Confer- ence meet. Columbus and Lake- view were victims of the boys in the duals, while Elkhorn Mount Mi- chael, the eventual state cham- pions, defeated the Shamrocks. At the B-4 District meet, Scotus fin- ished fourth, just missing a trip to the state meet. One runner, Dan Parolek, did qualify as an individ- ual, finishing fifty-first place.

Football Team Tackles Season The 1986 football season, though it ended in disappoint- ment, had many memorable mom- ents. The 1986 Shamrocks did not qualify for the state playoffs, end- ing a two year string, but the team scored a 6-4 record. The team started the season with high hopes. Being led by the seniors, pre-season ratings found the Shamrocks in the top ten of Class B teams. The year started on a high note with wins over St. Jo- seph’s and Hardington Cedar Cath- olic. The next challenge was a road game with Schuyler. The Warriors came into the game the number one team in the state. The game went into overtime with Schuyler squeaking out a victory and even- tually winning the State champion- ship. The Shamrocks lost a heart- breaking game with Wahoo Neu- mann on Homecoming. The year ending with two disappointing losses to rivals David City Aquinas and Fremont Bergan, two teams that made the playoffs. The Shamrocks did receive some great individual honors. Pat Engelbert led the way, receiving First team All-State and Class B honors. Scott Krzycki was honor- able mention. All-Conference se- lections were Pat Engelbert, Scott Krzycki, Chuck Korger, and Eric Hegi.

Not only were there many individual honors, but the team won every match on the way to a 24-0 record. At the start of the season, the Scotus volleyball squad was rank- ed first in Class B State. They never looked back. During the regular season, the team never lost a sin- gle game. The Shamrocks won the Raymond Central Tournament, the Conference Tournament, and all regular season games. Along the way, old rivals such as David City Aquinas, Fremont Bergan, Wahoo Neumann, Albion, and Columbus were defeated. In the district tournament, the team defeated Wayne and Blair to set up a match with the number two team in the state, Hartington Cedar Catholic. The Shamrocks won the first game but narrowly lost the second. The final game was a close, exciting contest, but Scotus won to earn a trip to state. In Lincoln, behind support from the fans, won easy straight- set victories over Lincoln Pius X and Ogallala. The championship game went to three games before the Shamrocks won the state championship. Kelly Nicolas was chosen as second team all-stater, while Kelli Martin was third team. These two were, along with Courtney Tooley, chosen Class B first team all-state, with Kelly Nicolas being named the honorary captain. Honorable men- tion honors went to Ann Bernt. Courtney Tooley, Kelli Martin, Kelly Nicolas, and Ann Bernt were all conference. Kelly Nicolas and Kelli Martin were voted co-MVP’s by their teammates. Ann Bernt and Juli Hroza were selected as best de- fensive players, while Angie Bro- zovsky was most improved. Kelli Rinkol was the most enthusiastic player.

The Rocks started the season with eight straight wins and received a high ranking in the polls. After a narrow to higher ranked Schuyler, the boys defeated Boys- town and Wahoo Neumann to get into the finals of the NCC tournament. For the second time, the Shamrocks lost to Council Bluffs’ St. Alberts. In dis- tricts, the boys were upset by West Point, who went on to the state tour- ney. Despite ending on a sour note, the team had a satisfying season. Se- nior Pat Engelbert and Junior Steve Souillere each received all-state hon- orable mention and all-conference honors.

The Lady Rocks rolled over all opponents, including Colum- bus High, Lakeview, Fremont Ber- gan, and David City Aquinas. After the regular season, the team was un- defeated at 19-0, and still ranked first in Class B State. This year’s team won the Holiday Tournament, NCC Division Tournament, and NCC Con- ference Tournament. At the district tournament, the girls were seeded first. After defeating Schuyler and Blair, the Shamrocks had to face Hartington Cedar Catholic, HCC was the sec- ond ranked team, and people were waiting a long time for this game. It was a barn burner, and for the second straight year, Har- tington upset Scotus to earn a berth to the state tournament, in which they finished second. Again this year the Shamrocks had a lot of individual honors. Kelly Nicolas received first team Class B all-state and third team all- state. Kelli Martin was named to the second team Class B. Kelly Ni- colas, Kelli Martin, Ann Bernt, and Kelli Rinkol were named to the all- conference team.

The sophomores sold candy bars to raise funds for the occasion. The class also put time into the decorations and food. Despite a loss to Wahoo Neumann in boys' basketball, the stu- dents were ready for the event. The crowd roared and applauded when Ann Bernt and Mike Rueschhoff were crowned 1987 Sweetheart Queen and King by last year's royalty, Donna Bierman and Randy Zoucha.

The team consisted of fifteen members. Senior, Joe Tooley said, I enjoy the sport, and lifting weights was the most fun. A lot of determination and patience is needed to be a golfer, and Good results will come to those who are patient, and put a lot of hard work in during practices. The Scotus Invitational was the team's most important accomplishment this season. Everyone contributed well, and at the end the Scotus golf team found themselves at the top. The team's con- ference meet was held May 7 and the team finished second. They placed second at Districts and Jim Schieffer placed third.

Other early meets were the West- point Invitational, Grand-Island Invitational, the Scotus- Seward-Aquinas triangular, and the Scotus Relays. The Sco- tus Relays turned out a success, with the girls finishing first by a couple of points. This meet was only a beginning of many more outstanding performances by the girls' track team. The team ran extremely well; earning two first place trophies at Invitationals, and winning all duals and triangu- lars they participated in. The Conference meet, held May 9, at Sco- tus was viewed as a great warm-up meet to prepare for Districts, May 14. The team fin- ished first and had some outstanding perfor- mances coming from Mary Fehringer winning the high jump, Kelly Nicolas winning the 300 low hurdles with a new meet record, and An- nette Sueper winning the two mile and one mile run. The 400 relay team ran their fastest time of the season, finishing with a first place. The members on the relay were Juli Hroza, Kelly Nicolas, Amy Miller, and Pam Hroza.

As time rolled on and we grew up, all the fun that we still had. And some of the growing pains, we wanted to put into the past. I remember the first dance we had, oh it was so fun, and all the victories we had when we knew we were number 1. And the memories still linger the laughs, the fights, the pain, but we knew that in that sunshine somewhere in time there was rain. And how it all had to end, why did it go so fast? I think back through it all, and how we said we'd make it last. I remember all the love we shared, all the times we were so close, we had our hearts and our minds on the one we loved the most. Why does it end? Have we forgotten? We said we’d make it last, but the time will come, we all know, to put this in the past. But the doors of time open up and we have another day,? and time I know cannot tuck these memories all away. Yes, I'll remember back as far as I can, and I'll think of you and cry, for the time we have now must end, but our memories will never die ... by Paul Marca Carolyn Bonk Victoria Boryca Lori Arlt Laurie Beerbohm Paula Bator Ann Bernt Eric Beck Mark Bierman Angela Brozovsky Joseph Determan Mary Bruner Rich Buettner Patrick Engelbert Melissa Grohs Edward Fehringer Troy Hiemer Renata Haider Amy Hefti Scott Heimes Juli Hroza Amy Jasper Robin Hamling Kristine Klopnieski Lana Kropatsch Charles Korger Scott Krzycki Darla McDermott Paul Maca Kristine Mielak Jennifer Micek Kelly Nicolas Amy Miller Shannon McGuire Kelli Martin Shari Rosno Sheila Schmidt Michele Sobota Michael Rueschhoff Kim Shotkoski Mary Sojka Steve Spale Carrie Staroscik Bryan Ternus Tyla Tworek Joseph Tooley Dawn Valish Mary Courtney Tooley Brian Wangler Roger Wiese Tara Zuerlein Presenting the Graduates The Scotus Eucharistic Com- mencement was held on Sunday, May 17 in the Memorial Hall.

Father Joe's Religion II class, Homecom- ing, and leading the cheers at games were favorite activities of the juniors this year. Cramming for the ACT test was another ac- tivity the juniors enjoyed. The juniors sold magazines to finance the 1987 Junior-Senior prom. Under the di- rection of Ms. Mattern and Mr. Sadie, the prom was a great success and a fitting end to a fun year.

The year flew by for the sophomores as they completed another step toward graduation. The sophomores gained experience in their clubs and organizations. They also joined varsity and junior varsity teams. Reading Lord of the Flies and studying the skeletal system in biology were high points academically. The sophomores put on the Sweetheart Dance under the direction of Mr. Younger, their class sponsor. Candy bars were sold to finance the event. Most sophomores got their driver’s license and were able to drive around with friends.

The be- ginning of the year was filled with new experiences from taking pic- tures to laying out pages. Toward the end of the year deadlines seemed to be tomorrow and pic- tures were not taken. Through co- operation and organization the yea came to a close and so did the ye book. We worked very hard throughout the year on many different parts of the yearbook. When things were not gong right, we had Mrs. Bstandig and her little surprises to keep us going. She was never too upset with our mistakes, but rather helped us to learn from them. Without her de- votion and motivation this yearbook would prob- ably not have been finished. The journalism staff chose the theme Life is a Celebration” because it portrayed the image of the school. We all realized that there was much to be celebrated through our friends, families, aca- demics, sports, and feelings. The cover was de- signed by Amy Hefti and Tara Zuerlein along with Tom Goc helping out with photography. This year's book was designed to start a tradition of a new look in yearbooks. Everything from past years had been set aside for new ideas. The first sixteen pages were designed to revolve around just how life is celebrated in so many different ways around us. We added eight more pages of color to the book and arranged activities in maga- zine layout style. A special thanks goes to all the businesses that placed an ad in this book and especially to Tom Goc, of Anderson Studio, who gave of his time to help us with many pictures. Mrs. Bstandig also deserves much more praise than she is actual- ly given for having the patience to explain things over and over again. We hope you enjoy this book as much as we enjoyed putting it together for you. As some unknown author said, The mem- ories we capture today will make beautiful to- morrows.
