ctions Bridging The Gap Flood Story When I walked down to see the bridge Sunday afternoon, I was very surprised to see that there were alot of people on the bridge. But when I got up there too, I realized the concern people had. The river was extremely high! It hasn’t been so high and near to flooding in years! I walked on the bridge looking at the ice chunks float under the bridge and talking to everyone I knew, when all of a sudden, “crunch”, the whole bridge shook. A large ice chunk hit a support. That was scary. I didn’t want the bridge to collapse on me. Due to unseasonably warm temperature and much snow this winter the river was up to 15.1 feet at 11 a.m. on Sunday. It covered the banks completely and was up the dike aways. The lowlands on the west side were covered. The curve of the highway got covered and one farm west of town was evacuated. Everybody was worried about whether or not it would go over the dike. Alot of people from third ward were there just checking it out. The ice was jamming up on the south end of the river and you could almost see it come closer. Everybody was saying, if it gets under the bridge, oh no! People were saying they should dynamite the ice but then they said they couldn’t do that because towns farther down would get flooded. Nobody talked about anything else Sunday afternoon. How glad some were that they lived of the east side of town and those close to the river were trying to think of what to do with all their stuff. Then we hear about Wisners ice and and the awful possibilities. If their’s breaks and ours doesn’t we’ll flood for sure. I was getting more and more nervous by the minute, water was everywhere and we live close to the river. If it goes over, what’ll happen to our house? I imagine several other people felt the same way, especially those- who live right under the dike. School kids were discussing, do we get out of school to sandbag if needed, what about if we get flooded and need to go home and help. We heard about the farmer who had to move his livestock twice because of flooding. The flood reached its peak at dusk on Sunday, of 16.30 feet, 4 feet above flood stage. The water would have had to rise 3 more feet to reach i9 feet before going over the diKe. Even with this reassurance people were still worried over the Wisner jam. But Monday morning the town breathed a sigh of relief when we heard our ice jam as well as Wisner’s had broken and was down the river. Now this episode is just water under the bridge.

We played the games together, laughed together and cried together. Time went on and we passed through the gates of high school. Remember our first dance, our fijgt date, and our first puppy WjW Each day went on and we a task and accomplished it. Soon new doors will open to the big world. Different opportunities for each of us lie ahead. We share our last goodbyes and cries. Reflecting back all the memories, happy and sad, good and bad, love and hate, and now we look at each other and say . . . Farewell and Remember me always. Dreams have brought us this far, now cross the bridge into reality full of ambition and ability. Seniors electrify Kevin Baumert Our senior year is the one most hoped for, dreamed for, and strivin for, and we finally made it! But what does our senior year mean? It means pictures, announcements, name cards, memory books and graduation parties. Being a senior means running around trying to get everyone’s picture, name card, and signature in your memory book. It makes people realize that we’re a class and we’ll all be separating soon to work, get married, or go to college. It’s our last year and we can remember we won the spirit stick! We put on a real good prom and had money left over to eat at the Vet’s club as a class. Then trying to get everyone in one place after school to have a group shot taken, that was hectic! In our last sememster we keep going to class, counting the days to graduation. Finally, we graduate! We realize this is the last time we’ll all be together. The unseen wires that connected us and helped us tune in to each other will be cut tomorrow as we make our own future. Bruce Benne Mary Boyum Dan Buckmann Debbie Benjamin Shelley Black Robert Broekemeier We always look back at where we’ve been who we are, and what we’ve done. We’re always provin’ who we are by always reaching for the rising star. As High School ends, it’s hard to face the future all alone, but before we know it we have new friends, and new goals and our memories of WEST POINT HIGH.

Both schools put in alot of time and effort to make it a success. The music was very good too, even though we weren't given our one full day of practice together because of a rescheuled basketball game. The combined bands practiced in the mornings and the choirs practiced part of two days together. The choir room sure fills up with that many there! For many of us the day of the concert was busy, our break from school and we had musical practice and then to be up here again at 6:00! We certainly had to rush. Then to practice beforehand so we know what’s going on. Everything turns to chaos as we near the time to go on. But once we’re out there everything goes smoothly and a good concert results. Besides the bands and choirs, the two swing choirs performed alone and as a group, and a jazz band played. It turned out really good. Maybe we’ll have one next year and make it an annual thing. 13 10th Grade 14 Row 1 LuAnn Anderson, Kristen Black, Barry Bogseth, Marcie Boling, Kathy Braz-da, Don Brockmann.

It didn’t bring victory but it brought a close 3rd. The skit theme was the three little Cadets who huffed and puffed and blew the house in. The three little Cadets were Willy French, David Jindra, and Russ Wordekemper led the way for the skit. The class float for this year was Cadets will stick together. It was a big bottle of glue. The sophomore class was happy this year, they weren’t Freshman anymore. The big man in sports in the sophomore class was Tom Hoffman, who was the only sophomore starter on football, he qualified for state in wrestling and lettered in track. 15 Q Row 11 Dion Schmoldt, Sandy Schroedter, David Schulzkump, Rhonda Schulzkump!

This years sophomore class, the class of 1984, was filled with happy, cheerful, studious, and well behaved students. This years class had many standouts, especially in sports. For football it was Tom Hoffman, volleyball-Sandi Miller, wrestling-Russ Wordekemper, girls basketball-Sandy Schroeder, golf-David Jin-dra, girls and boys track-Sandi Miller and Willy French. But it wasn’t just the great athletes. It was also placing well at homecoming and taking first place on our skit. It was also really finding out what High School is all about. High school is a place to learn, a place to find out what your going to do in the future. You finally realize it after alot, if not most of your friends graduate. This years class of 1984 will be a class to remember. 10th David Schulzkump, Dawn Kaup, San di Miller, Bobbette Harrington. Connections 1981-82 Maria Reich, Shelley Black, Becky Ventris. LaDonna Schultz, David Jindra The first and second semester put their power together to create the 1981-82 Annual Connection. The first semester class finally connected with the theme Connection. This is the first year the annual staff became a class. Because of this change, students don’t have to come up to school one night a week for only a couple hours. And for this reason more work is done in less amount of time it use to take. There were two classes. First semester consisted of 8 members and second semester 4 members. We all got the chance to work with the camera taking pictures at games, dances, faculty, and students doing their normal thing. After taking these pictures we got the chance to work in the dark room developing. Of course we made a few mistakes at first like exposing a roli or two of film and leaving the light on while developing. Another development is trying to write stories for the pictures we took and making sure it sounded right. Along with writing also have to try and figure out what pictures do or don’t go in the annual and their size and location on the page. After all that we have to headline each page. Sure it’s hard and difficult work, but in the long run it's worth it. 3 3 0) GO ST Row 1: Russ Wordekemper, Russ Sellentin, Bobi Harrington, Row 2: Don Brockman, Kim Herrmann, Jean Burmester, Steve Williams A special thanks to the following girls for coming in after school was out to finish the annual, Becky Ventris, LaDonna Schutlz, Maria Reich, and Shelley Black. 17 Freshmen Charge On. . 9th Grade 18 Row 1 Anita Albus, Michelle Arensberg, John Fehrer, Lori Fenske, James Pat Batenhorst.

Elementary exhibits cience Fair Biology, the science of life, offers many diverse career opportunities in its two categories, plant science or botany, and animal science or zoology. Plant science includes a great many specialties and fields of interest. Animal science, too, has its specialties and fields of interest. Occupatnions in zoology may be n the broad fields of research, N'hing, or business. Specific , Ms in these fields include directors or curators of zoos or museums, specialists in biological supply houses which deal in animals and equipment, workers testing the effects of foods and drugs upon animals, and librarians, secretaries, editors, and writers who also are required to have specific training in the field of zoology. Opportunities for professional occupations are found in medicine, dentistry, and veterinary medicine. The teaching of biology, whether on the secondary school or college level, is one of the • most stimulating and rewarding of the occupations in the field. I Very few teaching specialties evoke the interest of the student as does the study of life. A great many industrial philanthrope, and academic foundations have established grants for furtherance of research. As a rafrult of these grants a great fyy zoologists engaged in teaching are also conducting research. In addition to work 3. Winners of science fair awards: Brian Wickert, Jeff Deaver, and Marty Norton done in universities, research is carried on by museums and by industrial concerns. Companies producing such products as insecticides, oil, and food products maintain large staffs of researchers in biology. In addition to the study and practice of human and animal medicine, there are a great many fields closely allied to medicine which require the skill of the biologist. Some of these are physiology, bacteriology, genetics, biochemistry, biophysics and pharmacology. Many biologists work for national and local governments. Going into any field of biology may mean employment by different agencies of the U.S. government. Some of these would be like the Department of Agriculture, 2. Sr. High exhibits Health, Education, Welfare, etc. Hospitals ahve biologists on their staffs. So, in becoming just a biologist you may in several ways improve the quality of life for man or animals. Some of these ways might be that you could improve agricultural business or quality of the gooods made in some way. Also, the health of the crippled, old, and those who have unbeatable disease may be helped in the future. The amount of education of science could be improved to, by getting more teachers. So, overall I believe that science classes could end up helping in many different ways if used wisely- t- ) Row 1 Brant Addy, Wade Albus, Jackie Boldan, Greg Danielski, Jeff Deaver.

They started out the season by losing the first two games. Against Emerson they pulled out to an early lead, but in fourth quarter they lost the lead by three points. The eighth graders wanted a victory though and rallied back to beat Emerson by one point. Then they went to Oakland and didn’t do so hot losing against a man-to-man defense. The eighth graders also lost to Tekamah-Herman by 2 points on a last second basket by Tekamah. The eight graders leading scores were Kim Kollath and 't Stacy French.

In art, Jill Schmeckpepper’s painting went to a National Scholastics contest and won an honorable mention. The junior high band went to Brainard, Nebr. and brought back an excellent rating and a red ribbon. JoDene Karloff brought home a blue ribbon for a piano solo. At the science fair the 7th grade received blue ribbons for both of their class projects. Sharia Kurz got a red ribbon for her project and David Gregerson got a yellow ribbon for his.

This year's choir membership of 35 is a far cry from other years of 70, but it makes up in quality what it lacks in quantity. With a few changes in program, we started a new year. another difference in choir this year is that we had morning recitals to help us sing in front of people. Our first activity was the East Husker Vocal Clinic. The whole choir went and we rehearsed the whole day and gave a concert at night. Pretty tiring, but we survived by not eating the food. We put Swing Choir on a winter concert, first time the Sr. and Jr. High were together. It was not a huge success. We would rather have had it separate. The next activity the choir participated in was the combined WPHS and CC concert. This was fun for all because it brought the two schools closer together. Then came the spring concert, a review for District Music contest at Wayne. Everyone has worked hard on small groups, solos, and choir numbers in hopes of high scores at contest. Contest is always exciting! We get out of a day of school to run around in Wayne. But we have work to do. too. It’s always scary to ge tup in front of a judge and not mess up. All in all, we've had a successful year. Band • -V Row 1, Dawn Kaup, Krjs Sanders, Ken Meyer, Paul STigge, Mike Fenske, Scott Kurz, Keith Schlueter, Stuart Wiese.

Psychology is the study of animal and human behavior. We all use some kind of psychology in everyday life. We need it to get along with others. Examples include: Teachers use principles of psychology to help student learn quickly and easily. Books by psychologists help parents rear their children. Businessmen use psychology in preparing advertisements and designing products that appeal to customers. Pschological tests help people 1. Ken Echtenkamp 2. Jerry Wilks 3. Alverna Engelbart 4. Richard Johnson 5. Joe Carmody 6. Arlette Englehart 7. Peggy Backer choose careers. Employers use test as tools to help decide whether or not a person is fitted for a certain job. Psychology can also help you develop methods of teaching, studying—also can help people overcome emotional problems. The class in high school can help you understand yourself better and how you can get along with your family, especially 1. Audrey Bernhardt 2. Leroy Dinslage 3. Ethel Ahrens 4. Vera Wegner I 5. Luke Lambrecht 6. Bob Nebuda 7. Lily Petersen 8. Kenneth Poppe 9. Betty Westerman 10. Olga Feyerherm parents and friends. When you learn psychology in school it helps you to learn more about yourself, the brain and different kinds of personalities, behaviors and theories of emotions. You can even learn suggestions on how to improve your study habits so you can get better grades and cope with life’s strains.

This year the NHS elected officers in an early meeting. The pres, is Shelley Black, vice pres. Alan Feyerherm, and sec. Tammy Wendt. The other two members are Bob Broekemeier and Brian Wickert. They helped at the math and science fair that was held here, gettingout of a whole day of school to help run the bowls. We were all pretty well worn out. Each spring new members are elected to the NHS. They are picked on a basis of character, leadership, scholarship, and service. The faculty picks the students who become members. The induction ceremony takes place after Honors Day. Everyone is welcomed by the president and the purpose of the organization is explained while the appropriate candle is lighted. The emblem is explained and new members are tapped—an old member taps a new member on the shoulder and welcomes him to the society. Each new member gets a lighted candle and recites the pledge of the organizaiton. Fourteen new members were inducted this year. Three of those will graduate so there will be eleven members to carry on the tradition.

LaDonna Schultz, and Monica Gentrup got a gold medal for their display. Maria Reich and Becky Ventris got a silver for their healthy babies, speech and Shelly Black got a gold medal for her creed interpretation. Niki Hansen as District President ran the meeting. There were sessions for the members to attend such as rape, student body, child abuse and encounter. FHA regularly has a cake raffle at all the volleyball and basketball games where they make over $200. This money is used to take groups to State and National conventions, the slumber party, the Sweetheart Dance and a special trip. Several people went to state this year. LaDonna gave a speech on child safety and got a silver. ! Linda and Becky did a puppet show on child nutrition and got a bronze. Holly Rasmus got on the PEP squad. Tammy Benjamin got on the Student Body, Kristin Black got District 5 president and other people attending were Kim Lofgren and Carole Hagedorn. Niki Hansen got National Committee member. Several of the members who got number of points before the Sweetheart Dance got to go on a trip to Adventureland after school is out.

It was raised by each and every member, working at basketball, volleyball and wrestling games and matches. They all had to sell concessions. The spending flow of the money will go on fixing up the girls locker room. They plan on putting in more electrical outlets and more mirrors. Then whatever is left will go on a new incline bench to go into the weight room. The the money left over will go on the annual steak feed. The festivities will begin at the park. Then to Timmermann field for a softball match against the teachers. It was a good year for WP Club. 41 Speech ONE ACT Drama got an extra boost this year with a first place win at Districts. The cast gave a performance to the school as an assembly and we all thought it was good. Right before competition Holly Rasmus got sick and we saw Gina running around in the halls trying to learn Holly’s lines in a hurry. Well, that’s what she got for being student director! Despite a few mishaps and getting used to working on a real stage, the cast did fine and came home as winners. Row 1. Beth Saner, Barb Hasse, Niki Hansen, Tammy Benjamin, LeAnn Anderson.

The story, “The Capricious Pearls’’, centered around four convicts that returned to an old home where they hid their pearls and find it turned into an old ladies home. The antics of the boys, the old ladies, and Tammy B. as the little girl kept us in suspense until the convicts hearts were softened to give back the five pearls left to help finance the home. All in all, the cast enjoyed rehearsals and the performances very much. District Speech Participants 42 James Feyerherm, extemporaneous speaking. Miss Fuller, Tammy Benjamin, interpretation of poetry, Niki Hansen and Beth Saner, interpretation of humourous prose. Recharge At Rallies Pep rallies got us in the spirit. Everyone looks forward to the bonfire during spirit week, dancing around, and throwing boxes in. But the tradition of hauling out was abolished, because of change in adminsitrative policy, all for the safety, and well being of the little freshmen. This year wasn’t the success that it had used to be. Because it rained all week and we held the pep rally in the gym after the volleyball game. Even though it was suggested we could have the bonfire in the gym, Mr. Wilks didn’t approve of this idea. Terry, Jeff, and Troy wished the team good luck and the band played “Hail Varsity’’ and the school song and everyone left in high spirits. Friday afternoon we had our traditional yellout and pep rally. Each class did their best to blast everyone out of the gym. While yelling ourselves hoarse we pledge loyalty to our team and yelled for a victory. This pep rally ended with the “Kiss a Pig” contest between Kris and Jeff. Jeff won but the pig died so he kissed Kris instead. Much better than a pig, I guess! Then we all ran downtown to watch the parade and join CC for a pep rally wishing both teams a victory. The cheerleaders got us into the spirit and we went home ready to help our team win. Pom Pon Girls Row 1. Patty Kollath, Kathy Lubker, Niki Hansen, Dawn Kaup, LeAnn Frye, Sandy Schroedter.

But what do they get when they get there? With Reagan’s budget cuts the price of lunch went up and we lost our choice of main dish. With the new YAC committee changes have been made to make lunch less of a horror. People who bring sack lunches can now sit with the rest of the people. We get ice cream every Wed. and they’re thinking of putting in a shake machine or a salad bar. YAC took a survey to see which foods people like and are serving much better food. Now, shall we go to lunch? West Point Jr. Sr. High has formed a new group this year. YAC or Youth Advisory Counsel. The purpose of this committee is to make suggestion for improvements in the lunch program. A few of the committee and the cooks took a trip to Blair High School to observe their lunch program. After viewing their program they brought back ideas of the malt machine, build your own chef salad, and build your own sandwich. We have recently received the malt machine. It seems everyone is really pleased with the way the lunch program has improved. Their are two representatives from each class, one boy, one girl, there are also teachers. The class representatives are as follows: Sr. —Donna Throener, Ron Meister Jr. —Dorothy Harris, Duane Neilsen Soph.— Melvin Flores, Scroder Fresh.—Jon Engelbart, Jill Iverson 8th—Amy Meyer, Jeff Deaver. 7th — Melvin Meyer, Lori Hagedorn. Also Mr. Wilks, Mary Schulzkump, Lily Peterson, Mrs. G, Mrs. Blomendahl, Mrs. Backer. Lunch gets new charge 45 YAC VICA VICA Expanding The Vocational Industrial Clubs of America are centered around the high school youth. They encourage personal growth, knowledge of safety, responsibility, citizenship, leadership, pride, good public relations, cooperation and understanding of their community. For all these reasons and more VICA is important to the High School Youth. VICA is a High School Youth Organization run by students. Through their membership service is provided and a good name is given to VICA. When VICA and High School Youth get together democracy and patriotism is strengthened as well as standards in ethics in workmanship and safety. Unity between youth of all races, creeds, colors and religion is encouraged but most important new types of professionalism is developed. VICA and High School Youth are making things better in the industrial world in the United State of America. Officers Row 1.

The students competed in the following events: small engines, cabinet making, welding, ex-temperanious speech, club business procedures and opening-closing ceremony. Group sessions were held Monday morning and afternoon and one Tuesday morning. The speakers included National and State officers and Ronald Jantzi the State Director. Monday night they had a dance, other event was the car wash in which students without name tags had to run through the entire group and get hit. Tuesday night there was a banquet in which awards were given. Even though our chapter didn’t get anything, we gave it our best shot! 46 VICA in the Spirit of Homecoming 47 VICA County Government Day Sparks Political Interest Qounty-City Government Day’s annual election results are: County Clerk-Cheryl Jindra; County Surveyor-Scott Kindschuh; Clerk of District Court-Sandi Miller; County Assessor-Kurt Hansen; County Treasurer-Sue Schroedter; County Sheriff-Mike Slagle; County Attorney-Kevin Shreve; County Judge-Nicole Hansen; County Superintendent-Jim George; County Supervisor-Dave Hoffman and Gary Ortmeier.

To earn this privilege of this trip, they sold Christmas greens and painted the sign for Marjies. This money helped pay for the hotel rooms at Crown Center. Other activities included Nelsen Gallery, Kansas City Art Institute, University of Missouri-Kansas City and Theater Art Department. We all had the chance Friday night to go to Tiffanys Attic, a dinner theater. ART CLUB TRIP Greens were for sale and we didn’t fail, The job was tough but we made enough.

The Cadets were very powerful letting nothing get in their way. Other than the loss there was only one close game 13-7 against Logan View.

Disconnects In m Holiday Defeat (0 n S CO QQ December 28, 1981, it was WPHS vs. WPCC at the West Point Holiday Tournament. It was a cliffhanger but unfortunately WPCC beat WPHS 54-51. There were alot of disappointed fans, but that’s the way it goes. WPCC played a tough defensive game. For the Cadets Mike Slagle saw his first action of the year and played about half of the game. Mike was hurt during football when he broke his ankle. Jeff Sellentin was the leading scorer for the Cadets with 16 points. He also had 13 rebounds. Then came 1) Gotta get that ball � 2) Sink it! 3) Don't get handsy! o C0 54 Rick Engelbardt and Jim George who had 10 points apiece. For WPCC Rob Ernesti was the leading scorer with 21 points followed by Ron Englemeyer with 16 points. The score was tied at the end of the first quarter 15 to 15. Then the Jays led by two at the half 32 to 30. After that the Jays never looked back and went on to win 54-51. Even though WPHS lost to WPCC they still had another game to play and it was against Oakland-Craig in the consolation game. ,'w 1, Mike Slagle, Dean Martin, David idra, Kevin Shreve, Willy French, Melvin ores, Bill nagengast, Gary Ortmeier, stunt manager Tim Connell, row 2, Rick gelbardt, Roger Nottleman, Jeff Sellen-, Dan Schroedter, Orville Samuelson, b Brokemeier, Jim George, Fred ugherty, student manager, Bruce nne. ■ GAMES Cadets Opponent 51 Emerson (overtime) 58 60 Schuyler 68 32 Howells 30 62 Bancroft 42 48 Scribner 50 51 West Point CC 54 63 Oakland 62 59 Wisner 64 62 Pender 51 62 Tekamah 49 39 Dodge 31 52 Wayne (overtime) 50 44 North Bend 43 71 Lyons 63 79 Oakland 69 57 Oakland 39 37 Scribner 55 60 Logan View 45 49 Columbus Lakeview 47 54 North Bend 37 49 Columbus Scotus 55 Swish it in Free throws pulled out a victory for the Cadets when they won a close one 63 to 62.

By the 4th quarter, with two seconds left, the score was tied 62 to 62. Dan Schroedter made a free throw to win it for the Cadets. Jim George was the leading scorer for the Cadets with 22 pts.

It seemed that at every track meet was rainy or cold. Despite the odds against them the tracksters performed very well at their meets, even sending some to state. For the girls, Carol Stark went in 100m hurdles and Julie Lierman for the 1600m and 3200 m. The boys sent the 3200m relay team consisting of Dean Martin, Dan Donnelly, Willy French, and Rick Engelbart. They also sent Dave Hoffman in discus and Jim George in triple and long jump. Results of the state meet were Dave Hoffman got 5th in his event. Several records were broken by both boys and girls track teams. Julie Lierman broke her own record in the 1600m and 3200m. The 400m relay record was also broken, runers were Jackie Nagengast, Sandi Miller and Carol and Donna Stark. Peg Siebrandt showed good form as she broke both the shot and discus records. The boys, also, broke several records. The 3200m relay team broke theirs at the state meet.

The year went like this: 3rd team wise at Oakland, with Martin and David taking individual medals, and 2nd at conference, again with Martin and Dave taking individual medals. The highlight, at Stanton 1st place team trophy, with Martin finishing first medalist, Don Brockmann 3rd, and David Jindra 5th.

After much hard work and with the pep club yelling, we won the game against Scribner 33-6. It was the product of the whole week’s worth. Contending for the long sought award, the spirt stick, each class entered spirit week with fenvor. The classes competed in many area’s, including the dress up days, poster contests, floats, skits, and the yellout. The winner was announced at halftime and the Seniors won! Everyone screamed and even the band lost its composure. Yes it was a week to remember. Every day we dressed up to a different theme: On Monday it was Grubby Day; Tuesday, Career Day; Wednesday Backwards Clash Day; Thursday 50’s Day; and Friday, Red and White Day. And with Mr. Rupperts lean, mean, fighting machine, which turned out to be our yell, we really got in the spirit. The evening wound up on a gala note with Queen Peg and King Jeff leading the dance. 1) PagesLisa Gustafson and David Lang Queen Peg and King Jeff i— Activities Hi aa Cindy Repschlaeger. Tom Hoffman.

For the whole week everybody congregated in the gym to see the skits each class put on. This year the whole system was changed around and the classes drew lots to see who would go on which day. The faculty started it off with their Jolly Green Giant, Mr. Wilks, and their little sprout, Mr. Car-mody. They said we couldn’t be defeated and proved it by their “ugliest person in the world,” which cost a few students their lives. On Tues., the sophomores gave their rendition of the “Three Little Cadets,” and showed us that if we would stick our brick houses together with Cadet glue we will have a victory. The seniors, Wed., based their skit on “Stripes,” which everyone recognized. Running the Cadet team like an army camp and then shooting all the Trojans with their lean, mean, fighting machine they were saying, “We're going to win!” On Thurs., the juniors followed a yellow brick road to the wizard so they could have victory, spirit and teamwork. We wound up the week with the freshman skit. For once it wasn’t the same old football game. They produced a very large “Cadet”—a pillar that we could run over the Trojans with. With all this behind us we were ready to show Scribner what kind of a team we had! Homecoming “81-82” •'C-’gflr :' +■ it a. Let’s Spark Up Everybody loves a parade! Either to be in or just watch, they’re a lot of fun. Just about every organization had a float in the parade as well as each class. Some of the more memorable ones were the science clubs rockets. That often went everywhere but up and the “Cadet”apiller, that funny looking animal that crawled down the street with all the Freshmen under it. The FHA felt that “Cadet have the power of an 18-wheeler,” and rode on nine bikes to prove it. The FFA told our team to plant the Trojans. The sophomores showed us we can stick together with Cadet glue and the juniors assured us we would “Kick Off To A Victory,” The seniors had the most spectacular one, proclaiming we would aim for a victory,” and had a Trojan as the target. Another float held the candidates for king and queen and the band marched and played our songs. Not everybody could be in the parade, but it was fun to watch. After all, it only happens once a year so we might as well live it up, and as long as we get out of school let’s do it again! Life With Father” 66 The Fall Play of 1981, “Life With Father” was a great success. The audience received a chuckle out of the funny lines which the characters presented to them; such as Father, portrayed by Matt Tibbies; always standing firm in his decisions, and Clarence, portrayed by Bob Broekemeier finally getting the suit of clothes he so badly wanted. But behind the scence was where the actors received their laughs. There were the girls and their “rather highly raised skirts” as Father looke dout the window from on stage; and the accidental dressing room interruptions by the opposite sexes. Through it all, the cash had gotten the play through with a successful audience both nights as the Dircotr, Ms. Fuller managed to keep herself from pulling her hair out. I’m sure the cast will never forget the play, and neither will those that saw it. It was fun!!!!!!! Cast of Characters .....Kim Wegner .....Kris Sanders .

People would be able to dance in the romantic blues and grays of the streamers and clouds hanging from the ceiling. There were streamers on the lights and a huge cloud to portray more of a sky feeling. Now that we have an idea, let’s start! Friday after school we moved tables, trying to roll the round ones but mostly dropping them or hitting someone else. But Sat. morning real work is done. Everyone is running around saying, “What do we do next?” Everyone starts hanging up streamers except some people who have to help Bruce fix the lights. There’s always the problems of somebody stealing your streamers, scissors, or tape, and somebody saying they don’t like the wallyoudid. But there are fun things, chasing each other with tape and trying to push Sheri off the ladder. The large “Sweet Dreams” cloud was put up and we’re finished! The night descends! Everyone waits in suspense for royalty honors. And here they come, girls in pretty dresses, boys in suits. Freshman attendant swere Kim Landholm and Jeff Guenther; sophomore, Jan Wickert and Chris Klitz; junior, Niki Hansen and Scott Kurz; seniors, Shelley Black and Dennis Pietzmeier, Monica Gentrup and Ron Schlickbernd, LaDonna Schultz and Ron Stieren.

The royalty danced to Sweet Dreams and the dance was underway. Along with the usual popular songs, “Queen of Hearts” and others, they did some of the Beach Boys to which David and Paula Schulzkump showed us how to dance right. Later in the evening they did the twist in which Mr. G. outshone everyone and hulahoop contests. Everyone that was still there had a good time. After everything, the FHA cleaned up to be ready for school on Monday. 73 STUDENT LIFE CAPTIONS PAGE 1 1) Enjoying class? 2) In the good old days. 3) Duh! 4) Go team go! 5) I don’t leave home without him. 74 PAGE 2 1) Shh, Bernhart is looking! 2) What did I do now 3) The natural looks. 4) My pride possession. 5) Hong Kong Fui 75 1) Taking it easy 2) I got a boo-boo 3) Smile you’re on Candid Camera 4) Tin Grin 5) Not this again 6) The next “Norma Rockwell 76 1) Door designers? 2) Taking in the sun 3) Cheating Robert? 4) The Three Muskateers? 5) Really? c Q.

With 46 people this year we put on a musical worth recognition! Rehearsals were always exciting, but there were days when we wondered if it would ever go right. As we spent more and more time with sets and practice it started shaping up and finally we could see the end. We remember the rehearsal with the duck calls in Daniels song, thenight when everybody decided, anything goes, The old ladies were spectacular. As usual we were all nervous for our performances with Cathy and Mary running around backstage telling us what to do. The spirit must have rubbed off on everyone because everyone was crazy backstage, with some even taking the opportunity to gamble. Then the night that Rhonda tripped over the table and the next night when her lawn chair collapsed, “Tough luck Rhonda!” We were all happy when it was over, for it had been a lot of work. But it was fun. We all left Saturday’s performance to go to Kris’ cast party, after a busy month we settled down to normal life again. 1) It's Delovely! 2) Bon Voyage 3) Are you gonna sit there much longer? 4) Me Chinese, me play joke 5) Anything still goes!

E « o CL m 2) Sophomore Waiters and Waitresses Seniors Keep Beat in Dream Theme 1) Sandy Miller and Orville Samuelson Turnout for the 1982 prom was better than most people expected. There was a lot of fun in the air as the prom goers stepped into a Garden ofOreams. After the banquet came the waiters and waitresses skit. The waiters and waitresses were chosen by the junior class. Russ Wordkemeper, David Jindra, Willy French and Tom Hoffman served as waiters and Bobette Harrington, Ann Scherer, Sandi Miller and Jan Wickert were waitresses. The skit was a take off on “Saturday nite Live.” After all that the dance began. The Beau Brummell band provided the music. Dancers stepped into a Garden of Dreams a world of greens. Near the end dancers took streamers and flowers for souveniers. The clock struck twelve and the dance was over. The Vet’s club was the scene of a post prom party. Prizes were given out almost by the minute. With ping pong and pizza and pop 2 a.m. roiled around and prom was over for another year. Looney Tunes Keep in Step .. m «- _ . • t _U'lonMiTiQriiopo anH tho r a LOONEY TUNES 1) Look at those legs! 2) Gina and Daniel 50 years from now 3) No, Rhonda this way! “A Day in Television” was the theme for this year’s Looney Tunes. For weeks in advance Swing Choir and Stage Band thought of ideas to use and put them together to form a-show. The choir was invited to help out with the commercials and bit parts. So, lets go through a day in television. Everyone was up bright and early with Matt in his lovely bathrobe and wasn’t it funny how much Marty looks like Richard Simmons. We were carried through soap operas about Kleptomaniacs and the cartoons. The pink panther suit fit very well, Rhonda! Of course, we all like Paul, Dale and Jims rendition during muppeis. So, we are carried through the news and in.to music shows where the Swing Choir really shows its stuff. It all went very well except for a few minor mishaps like, “what’s wrong with your hat, Gina?” and not finding the right places. The night was brought to a close with “Saturday Night Live” and Matt came out again in his bathrobe to start another day. 1) Daniel Lubker, Pam Hendricks, Rhonda Schulzkump, Betty Linscott, Dale Lam-brecht, James Hladky, Jena Neiman, Jean Burmester, Gary Ortmeier, Gina Landholm (not pictured) Allison Wagner, Tammy Wendt, Paul Stigge 2) Takin’ it easy 3) The nervous jitters 4) Jazz Band tooting along 5) What you talking about, Matt? 6) The three stooges 1) Good move, Ronnie! 2) Which one is mine? 3) Do you have it yet!? 4) Is it raining? 5) Teachers taking out frustrations A Splashing Good Time Athletic Banquet 1) Mike Slagle, Bruce Benne. Peg Siebrandt, Jeff Sellentin, Terry Kindschuh The evening started with the usual Double K food. As the evening ended LuAnn Anderson realized she had taken out her retainer, left it on the table and it had been thrown away with the garbage. This was her new $300 retainer that she had just got because she lost her other one. So until anything could be started again, LuAnn, Bruce, Ms. Abboud, Mr. Ruppert, her parents and other searched through the garbage piece by piece until it was found. Bruce was the lucky one to fine it. I guess you be tt er hang onto it better, LuAnn. The banquet, cheerleaders were b. Prazak, l. Erdmann, d. Boots, D. announced, and many awards Hoffman, R.
