As the students could see, many things had changed over the summer months and things were still changing as the school year proceeded. Not only were there new faces of students and faculty, but there were many other changes that took place. When returning to school students found that the candy and pop machines in the student lounge seemed to have been sabotaged by a health food nut. There was no longer any pop in the pop cans, the students were drinking grape, orange, or strawberry fruit drinks, which were not easy for most to get used to. Students also found that the auditorium had been repainted over the summer. By the end of October the floor in the vocational wing was being retiled and work almost finished on the little gym floor. Quite a few accomplishments were made during the summer and the firs.t __ , ClJ 2 0 <IJ > 0 0 >- .D g 0 .c a. few months of school. Just what did the students do during the months of June through August while these changes were being made inside the building? Well, some students were outside soaking up the rays, working at local swimming pools as lifeguards, while others worked as cashiers at local fast food joints. Tee Jay students also participated in school sponsored summer sports such as baseball and softball. Not to mention all of the students who worked out and practiced for the teams they would participate in when school would reopen. Students involved in activities, sports and clubs and organizations also spent a lot of time and money to attend summer camps at various colleges and universities. Many students participated in the summer all city musical Westside Story, which took place at Saint Albert High School. Many accomplishments were mode by the students, teachers and the school itself.

TIHIE AIT OF IE llNG COOL Being cool. One might think that being cool is halfway between being warm and being cold. It isn't that simple to define. In fact what is cool to one person may not be cool at all to someone else. Fortunately, it is possible for someone to learn how to be cool . How cool are you? If you're not sure, check your temperature. Are you impressive? Do you make an onlooker's chin fall to his or her ankles with amazement? Are you cool within the eyes of a somebody or a nobody? To better explain the art of being cool, here is a fictional story on the evening that Jeff and Ann went out on a date. Each Incident is followed by a short analysis of being cool . For openers, Jeff spent three hours preparing for the evening. He finally decided to wear his "Urban Cowboy" boots with three inch heels along with his hand embroidered western shirt, and then left it unbuttoned for approximately JO minutes hoping that some chest hairs would suddenly grow. When they didn't, he cut off some curls of his pet poodle, Fido. He then left the house w ith a satisfying, bushy upper chest and a ten gallon cowboy hat on his head. Analysis: A cool person wears his 6 Student Lite clothes, not disguises himself in them . Bill is either lacking self-confidence or is trying to imitate John Travolta. Remember it is not cool to go out without any clothes on. In fact it is illegal and one may freeze. When Jeff arrives at Ann's house, he walks in and his left heel latches on to the rug and he then falls flat on his face. Ann comes down stairs and proceeds to sneeze violently for ten minutes. Her mother then announces that it seems like an allergy, but Ann is only allergic to dog hair. Jeff buttons his shirt. Analysis : It is important to stay cool under conditions like these, but this also illustrates how dressing in a cool manner can turn you suddenly into an uncool nerd. After a show, a western, who would've thought, the couple goes out to dinner. Ann orders a dieter's special which consists of a slice of tomato, a lettuce leaf, and a glass of water. Jeff then looses his appetite and feels guilty if he doesn't order a dieter's special also. Analysis: Dieting for your health is one thing, pretending you're a rabbi t is another. Ann was uncool and faintly ridiculous to pretend she was a bunny and· to pressure Jeff into thinking he is also one. At the end of the evening, our young couple re turns to Ann's house. In Jeff's mind, he hod already been invited in for cake and coffee, ofter which they would listen to some mellow music together. But as Ann opened the door she said, "Jeff you're a real cool guy. I can tell we're going to b e good friends . Good night." She walks inside and shuts the door behind her. Jeff's insides crumble. He then goes home and punches his pillow 50 times . Friendship with Ann was not what he had in mind . Analysis : Ann was going into a relationship which made her feel uncool, so she cooled it. Jeff however, wanted to proceed at the rate he felt he should go (and had told his friends he would go). But he was still cool to not punch anyone or anything until he got a hold of his pillow. Do you now see what I m ean about being cool? Cool means different things to different people. So how cool are you? Do you arouse admiration in others, or do you arouse on allergic reaction? Personally, I share the opinion of an eskimo who say s, "I don't mind being co ol , I'd just as soon hove a condominium in Miam i." b Sh . 1 . copy Y e1 a Main UNDER THE ORllN'E PEEi Did you ever really toke a good look around the nails here at Tee Joy? Not at the walls or the floors , but at the faces and people? Here, we hod all l<iinds of people at our school. Every race, creed and color. But besides all of that, our student body was mode up of so many types of students, personality wise, etc. Whether they ore a so called 'jock" or 0 "brain", everyone was on important port of Tee Joy's student body no matter who they ore, what they ore, or what they did. This copy is not to cut down anyone of their habits or lifestyle, but to only give a few kinds of students that attended school this year. Please do not take this copY personally, remember it's not rneont for any harm. This year our student body was mode up of approximately 1 ,J04 students and w ithin these 1,J04 bodies, there were dozens of types of students and cliques. For example tol<ie the 'jock". He was always out for every sport there was . He never seem ed to remember much, excep t his lunch money, girlfriend's name, his locker combination, and every player's current batting overage on the New York Yonl<iees baseball team. The 'jock" type was forever stationed in the student lounge sitting in front of the athletic' showcase watching girls or what hove yoi.J . His favorite subjects in school ranged from lunch to P. E. Next is the school "brain". This "brain" type could be found with his nose buried in a bool<i, in the library, or doing extra credit homework to obtain brownie points from a teacher. He hod a perfect 4.0 grade point overage all through high school while carrying tough classes lil<ie calculus, physics and chemistry. Then there was the so called "burn out". A nicl<inome given to him or her because of the fact that they could usually be found out on the tracks enjoy - ing a cigarette between classes, or before and ofter school. Some, not all, carried a loud radio or cassette player blasting out the loud jams of AC/DC to Ted Nugent. Many also hibernated across the street to Pete's Feeds doing various things . Their favorite subj ect seemed to be lunch and detention. The cheerleader, called a "rah-rah" by some, is pretty neutral. She usually participated in a number of school activities. She con be popular or thinl<i that she was popular. She was usually pretty and w as easy to get along w ith if you could ever get a w ord in edgewise. She is endlessly in the student lounge making spirit posters and being social. Her favorite subject was anything from tall<iing, to boys . Snobs can't be easily found at Tee Joy. "Stuck up" was another name given to the few that there were. This type usually took life just a little too seriously and usually kept with their own type. But as said before, there weren't many. Then there were "nerds". Every school had them, even Happy Days's had Potsie and Rolph . Other students often treated them cruelly as their "butt" of a jol<ie or as a "scapegoat". But they too, lil<ie everyone else, have real feelings. The "nerd" l<iept to him or herself in the quiet places of the school so no one really notices them too much. The cool guy on campus is so conceited that I w onder how he ever got his fat head through the door. He w ears shades, know n to others as dark sunglasses, with a coat slung over his shoulder. He often attempts to hustle every chicl<i in the school when he's not looking in a m irror or combing his feathered hair. His favorite subject is "himself". Remember, these were only a few of the types of students a t Tee Jay . Please do not take it as a cut dow n to yourself or anyone else.

LOVE T al"iing time to love is what its all about What mal"ies the clocl"i run and the sunsets come true and without complication That doesn't mean lying close in shut-up rooms And staying always face to face meant to cover walking being apart and l<inowing that coming bacl<i together mal"ies small distances even smaller And tal"iing the time to love is, most of all caring enough to not hold on too tightly And yet not run too loose poem by Tom Stricl<ilett TO DATE, 01 NOT TO Doting didn't seem to be as big of a deal as it used to be, like in the movies or when our parents were in high school. Picture it how it used to be. A pretty young girl hos a date with a nice young man. He picks her up at eight o'clock sharp in his parent's new family station wagon, with a small gift or flowers for her. After meeting her parents, out to dinner and a show they go. Maybe if the date wasn't a disaster and the girl allows it, he'll give her a quick good night kiss on the cheek and call her the next day. Nowadays, dating seemed to be so much more casual and relaxed . Girls and guys believe in going out w ith many different people than just one steady. Going on a date could mean going to a movie, concert, party, dancing, a bar, or out to eat where everyone hangs out at. Dating meant just having a good time together and doing something fun. Then some people date just one person all the time, or even go w ith them . I consider them very lucky to hove found each other so soon, care for one another, and to be able to make a small commitment like going steady. My parents were high school sweet- hearts, I don't think my mom had ever doted anyone else but my dad. 8 Student Life They're lucky too, to have each other. They seem as if they are all the some person . That really knocks me out that anyone could live through changes and time and still stand to be with the same partner for so long . I'm sure many kids' parents are the same way. That's either downright crazy or downright inspiring! There can also be some downfalls with going with someone. Jealousy Is one.

I retaliate with the feeling of great violence, directed primarily at the nerd who set up the date in the first place. Although, there is one thing I've always noticed about these girls and boys who arrange these dates, they each already have a boy or girl friend - always. They all begin innocently enough. Juli, my next door neighbor, says that her brother's roommate's third cousin, once removed sister-in-law, has a nephew visiting, and wouldn't I love to go out with him? I carefully ask, "What's he like?" "Oh, he's really nice", Juli soys. 1 Now, I'm no dummy. I know from enough experience how much misery those three words can cause. So now, despite all of my excuses that I've tried to use to politely refuse the offer, I find myself having a blind date for next Saturday night. Now, with my lucl~, this guy will have a million zits and won't believe in tal~ing a bath more than twice a month, or we will have nothing in common besides two arms and two legs. More than one The fatal Saturday night finally arrives. My mom l~eeps saying, "It's only one night in your entire life. I'm sure he's 0 nice young man, and 1 l~now you'll have a nice time." But I know better. While I'm waiting for him to show up, if he does, I l~eep repeating over and over to myself, "Please let him be taller than me, please don't let me see anyone I l<1now, and please don't let this happen to me ever again." The doorbell rings as I jump up and run to the bathroom. My mom answers the door and welcomes my date in who is Ichabod Crane reincarnated . I try not to cry or get sicl~. I <Ii ~ g 0 ~ 0 E 0 0 .s= a manage a smile and realize that this will probably be one night that I will not soon forget. In a voice peculiarly like Donald Duck's, he asks me on the way out to his '59 stationwagon where I'd like to go. I start to say someplace dark, but I don't want him to get the wrong idea, so I shut up. We go to a rated G movie where I see every girl I know and every guy I ever wanted to date in the theatre's lobby. For loci~ of conversation, I start to thinl~ of better blind dates that I've had to cheer myself up. I once had two terrific blind dates. One got married a week after we went out and the other moved to Russia. I then keep telling myself, "Try to have fun," but it doesn't work. I guess I have had worse than old Ichabod. Like the one who hod a car that would make a junk yard look great. One even had an old out-dated hearse that he hod bought cheap and it was carpeted with purple shag carpeting. Then there was the one who didn't even have a car, so we walked 21 blocl~s to the movies. Or the all-American boy who said , "I hope you like x-rated movies." Then there was the one so cheap he asked me to split a hamburger and a small coke. This all helps me get through the Walt Disney flick he tokes me to go see. He then tokes me home at 9:30, I've pleaded a headache. Phone rings As I step inside the door with a sigh of relief that this one is over, the phone rings. "Hi, this is Mike . We met six years ago at summer camp. Well my aunt 13etty has a brother-in-law, whose son's best friend's judo instructor needs a date for his cousin visiting him. He's really nice." Would you believe it? Here I go again, but maybe someday if I l<\eep trying he will turn out really nice. copy by Sheila Main B V) ~ 0 'O 0 <Ii ~ £ ·a; ;,;:: I >- I .D ~ 0 Juniors Cena Orooks and Outch Meister hold hands w hile walking through the stude nt lo unge to their next class, P.E.

For some, the weel~ends were a time to relax at home, sleep and spend some time with their family. For others. it was a time to go out with friends and hove a good time doing things together. "I lil~e to hunt and ploy football with all of my friends on the weel~ends ;; junior Keith Herndon said. Everyone always S'eem to find something to occupy their time on the weel~ends . Worl~ing at a port-time job was another common way to spend the weel~end hours. Worl~ing on the weel~­ ends proved to be a good way to picl~ up a few extra bucl~s for spending money. "I worl~ on the weel~ends, nothing too exciting. I lool~ forward to school more than I do the weel~ends " senior Fron!~ 13ricl~ey said. Staying home and catching up on some sleep-eye was very popular as was watching the old boob tube (t.v.) to see who really did shoot J. R. Sophomore 13ob Thomas said, "On weekends I lil~e to sleep late and I usually go to the movies." "I lil~e to watch football on the weel~ends and bet on it", junior Scott Polinsl~i said. 13ut for most, going out on the town Toilet pap ered cars a nd ho uses were a common sight . Senio r Lloyd Schneckloth often found his LETTINll LOOf E with friends was one of the best ways for students to spend a, weel~end . Many could be seen cruising the town's popular main strip, nothing else but 13roadwoy. With carloads of people, one could see cars stopping for Chinese fire-drills, toll~ing at the lights or just yelling bocl~ and forth at others. Just hanging out at a popular place lil~e 13urger King or Godfathers was also high on the list. Sophomore Lori Nixon said, "I lil~e to be with my friends on the weel~ends and just ride up and down 13roodwoy to yell at cute guys in other cars." Then there were the parties that were \ always held on the weel~ends , smallprivate and everyone-welcome parties . There were always parties to attend somewhere. Parties where students could drinl~ a couple of beers and tall~ with friends. 13ut not everyone dranl~ . there were no pressures on anyone who didn't core to indulge in a beer. Meeting new people was always fun at a party, but just "shooting the breeze" with old fri_ends was the best parf · c ~ 0 ~ 0 .... c 0 ~ .5 a 0 .c. a. Now, not everyone got blasted out of their mind every weel~end at a party, but parties were there if anyone wonted to go. T-ping and ploying practical ~es on people was still 6 favorite post time. One could wa ~e up one morning and find a few for sole signs on their front lawn or their car t-ped with toilet .paper. This all proved to be very fun and adventurous for many who hod enough guts to attempt it. Junior Mil~e Clift said, "I always seemed to woke up to a yard full of for sale signs or to find my house hod been t-ped along with the trees. I always l~new who it was though, girls! They'll do anything for a good laugh." Weel~ends always seemed to go by much foster than the weel~days did for some reason . Junior Scott Kern said, "I just usually go out on the weel~ends with my friends and have a really good time." The weel~ ends hod to be the best times of our years in high school, righ.t? Time to look bocl~ on and remember all of the fun and crazy things w e all did . I'm sure everyone could tell some really interesting things that hod happened to them either at a party, on 13roodway or at a hang-out.

Many could hear a conversation lil~e this one at school between both gLlys and girls.

If they're resentful and nasty towards others no matter how beautiful physically they ore, they're ugly. I feel women should respect themselves in such a way as to mol~e others respect them.

Senior Dave Jabusch ponders over the latest science problem. SCIHIOOll VlllWID COllDU:Y Throughout the school year, students faced a variety of problems, all insignificant by themselves, but when added together they amounted to another hectic season . .. Inside The Orange. The opening of school was filled with hot, sweaty sophomores, juniors and seniors traipsing to their new classes and recalling fond summer memories of baseball, the beach, sleeping in late .. and air conditioning . Fortunately , the majority of sophomores were so neNous about their first venture into high school life that they brol.c;e into cold sweats, alleviating the problem . The juniors and seniors, however, were not so lucl~. Of course, they always hod the winter to lool.c; forward to when they could miss another of the comforts of home, sweet home. That was none other than heat. While some rooms found students dressed in mucl.c;olucks and porl.c;os, others remained unbearably worm. Since it seems unlil-<iely this school hos heard of heating systems, this con no doubt be attributed to being left over from the summer. One day in mid-February was even worse than most. The electricity went on the blink, stopping clocl.c;s , typewri ters , lights, and most importantly, the electric toothbrushes of several teachers who hod just eaten lunch . 14 Student Life The stopping of clocl.c;s cre9ted innumerable problems for those students who spend their days clocl.c;wotching. seemingly transfixed by the evermoving second hand . It also created problems in the locl.c;er room, where students who hod enough trouble dressing themselves in brood daylight found it even harder in pitch dorlmess. 13y the time winter rolled around, report cords hod already been distributed once and were due to soon come out again, following the semester breol.c; .

Why, then, when students get A's and 13's, do the teachers soy, "You were on the borderline between two grades, so I gave you the higher one."

PllffEf The student lot generally filled quicl,ly each day, mol,ing it necessary to either arrive five hours before school or leave t~e car in the lot overnight to be assured of a spot. When the student lot was full and the weather was bod, it was often tempting for a student to porl' in the teacher's lot. However, if caught, the students often found themselves facing on inschool suspension. This consisted of spending port of a day, or all day for the more serious offenses, in one room and doing nothing but 1,eeping quiet. Many students objected to this policy of punishment, saying they would rather be sent home than sit in boredom all day. Others argued that the punishment was not strict enough, since many of the students who served in-school suspensions were used to doing nothing all day, since this was exactly what they did when they were in classes. Short Doy For those students who couldn't tol'e the problems of school life for a full day, the short day system was offered. This also created numerous controversies. Short day involved leaving the school early, usually ofter fourth or fifth hour. Some students, however, managed to forget that they were supposed to leave the building and found their way into the locl,er room, the library, the student lounge, and worst of all. the dreaded halls. Students roaming the halls soon become a concern of the school faculty and it became more and more difficult to get out of a class during closstime. It eventually reached a point where relevant excuses, such as needing to use the restroom, leaving a bool' in the locl,er and wanting a drinl' were no longer acceptable. · Instead, only emergencies lil'e changing classes every hour warranted leaving a room . I believe earthquol,e, fire and flood were also usable excuses. Honored Allowed to roam the halls freely, however, were those students fortunate to obtain an honor pass . Although the rules of an honor pass state that it is to be used to go to the student lounge or library, many students who otherwise had a great deal of intelligence Chow else would they get an honor pass?) forgot com pletely how to use the passes. Of course . that is not to soy that all students who received honor passes necessarily were among the school's brightest. Students w ith both a short morning and short afternoon who got an A in physical education and also in their two other classes, often something 18\ "7-! ·-- -~~ ~ J lil'e "l".\emedial Word Writing" and "Adding Small One-Digit Numbers 1-1 1," are not those most apt to finish at the top of the class in four years at MIT. The Lounge When students did use their honor passes correctly, they often went to the student lounge. The student lounge is not, as the name might suggest, a giant Lazy-boy chair on which hundreds of students are seated, or, more realistically, a w arm, little room at the end of some hall. Instead, the lounge consists of a hall, not worm, not little , and not a room. 13ut especially not warm. So at times, even the student lounge was not the place to go for the students to relax. Somehow , however, through it all, students made it through another year and on to another summer. Fortunately, the general boredom of summer often causes students to actually yearn to return to school. . It seems lil'e students forget the bad parts of school rather quicl,ly and remember only the good. It's a shame summer hos to end, and the fond memories turn into harsh realities . copy by Mil'-e Larsen Student Life 15 Actresses 1 . Goldie Hawn 2 . Cheryl Ladd J . Jone Fonda 4 . Solly Fields 5 .

These people participated in what may be one of the most wide spread competitions there's ever been, the making of a hot rod. When the phrase "hot rod" is spoken the vision will often come to mind of a glossy colored mechanical moNel screaming its thunderous challenge while emitting street scorching flames from its dual exhaust system. How perceptive foll~s con be! Customizers and their hot rods may be found in all shapes and sizes. One might not believe that junior Chucl~ Cooper and his high performonced 1969 pearl-white Roadrunner and junior Debbie Plunl~ett in her ocl~ Ford Pinto could both be found under the classification of "customizers" . But it's true, according to junior Dwight Soles, owner of a '66 "Super Chevy" Impala SS, "A customized car is just a car in good shape. With a good engine (that probably could be tocl~ if it's in good condition) and nice wheels wi ll probably make a difference ." "Customized ," stated senior Steve Shiller, "is your own personal improvements." Some Advantages "The improvements ore not mode so much for the sol~e of others, but more so for your own self-pride," said Cooper. Pride in one's car was not the only advantage to being a customizer. Along with the satisfaction of doing it himself, Soles said , "Girls ore attracted to nice cars ." Speed and looks also rate high on the list of advantages . "And a customizer knows his car is original," said junior Donny Peck . What may be one of the biggest advantages to hotrodding and customizing was stated by senior Kathy Stocl~ on . It was simply "Showing off." Some Disadvantages Alas, as with all things, there ore also some disadvantages to owning a hot rod . "If you have nice mags, fairly loud exhaust and a jocl~ed up rear end," said Cooper, "you better watch out, 'cause the cops got you morl~ed and cops ore harder on you if your car is dressed up." As problems with the police run thicl~ the gos runs thin with people averaging 20 to 50 dollars a week just racing and cruising . Along with high gos cost, every day maintenance and customization costs hurt. Coupled with insurance (if you were lucky enough to get it), the three are enough to wipe out any poychecl~ . Even though funding for customizers ran short, the worl~ never ended. As repairs and improvements were a lways in order, wheneve r a spo re moment occurred, cruisers d id n't hove time to indulge in spending anyway . The Supreme Test But, at lost, w hen oi l the d isadvantages and advantages hod to ken their proper places, when the car hod reached its present full potential , when driver and car hod both readied themselves, the moment of truth hod a rrived. Now cars w ere ready for the supreme test, ready for Friday night. On these Fridays, customizers and hot rodders alike come tog ether for 0 night of competition ,_ cruising , racing and just plain showing off. And at the end of these nights, if such nig hts did end, winne rs did not return home to gloat over what Soles d ubs "the thrill of victory." Losers did no t d e port to ull~ in the agony of defeat . In truth , both losers a nd w inners a like re treated bocl~ to their still l~ened yards, ba ck to those silent shops. They went bock to that never e nding effort of improv - ing their cars, tha t effo rt to achieve no matter how briefly the rank of supremacy, to prepare for that future moment . . .

Roger 22 Academics After seNing three years of coming to high school day in and day out, who would be crazy enough to come bocl~ voluntarily? Apparently, some people were, as evidenced by the fact that many teachers and staff members also went to school here many, many years ago. "I've enjoyed returning to my Alma Mater as o worl~ si't1e " said Head Custodian, Mox McGee, who graduated in 1950. There were twelve employees worl~ing here, who hove also graduated from here. Language Arts teacher, Mil~e Witt, who graduated in 1971 , decided to become o teacher in 10th grade. Principal Anderson, Gaylord Assistant Principals Haberman. Don 5chwertley, Don Not pictured VonMoonen . Jomes "It was something I always wonted to do. To come bocl~ to teach and coach ," Mr. Witt said . Other teachers who hove graduated from here included Career Center Teacher William A. Horriman· 111 in 1951 ; American Studies teacher Don Hansen in 1953; Wayne Mains, Coop Teacher, 1960; and Music Instructor Jerry 13robec in 1974. "I taught at Omaha for one year, Corter Lol~e Junior High for two years, then I got this position . I definitely tried to get into high school. Out of the two , I w onted to get in this one. I wonted to teach in Council 131 uffs schools . There ore a .lot of good people in Council 131uffs . I thought I could do something positive in the community, " said Science teacher, Steve Hardimon, class of 1969. Other employees who hove graduated from Tee Joy, included Jeon Cronl~ . custodian in 1979; Thomas Parrack, Custodian Maintenance, 1975; Tim Parrack, Custodian, 1975; and Outside Custodian Arden Mulvonio in 1947. Counselor Kelly Scott, class of '66 said, "It was l~i d of neat, a lo t of different faculty members and bui lding changes on the westside." "I felt very comfortable," Mr. Hardimon said . "It was li ~e b eing bocl~ . I found out that teachers ore peo ple too. We a re all worl~ing together for the some end result." copy by Ann Guest and Angie P.ocho ·1 .- WIMl~N II WAS ~OUA "When I was your age . . . " Every high school student has heard this phrase at least once from some teacher. The teacher either saw the student doing something he considered inappropriate or heard him complaining about something that was relatively easy, and out came those five words. "When I was your age . . . " !3ut were teachers ever really young? Did they ever actually attend school? They must have been children once themselves . Of course, things were different bacl"' then. When teachers were students, they didn't have the many modern conveniences that have come into existence in recent years . After traipsing twenty miles across a barren desert, fending off dinosaurs along the way, teachers of today arrived at their class-caves . There wasn't much history to learn bacl"' then, since nothing important hod happened yet. Science wasn't very far along then either. There was no theory of evolution because nothing hod evolved . Even reading and writing were easier because there were no complicated languages to learn, just a series of grunts and groans. Still, some of the teachers were born in later years, long ofter the dinosaur had died out. Many of the "younger" teachers went to school during the P.ennoissance. Art classes were especially interesting during this period, since most of the ·· great artists were still around to teach the courses themselves . Some teocher.s, as hard as this may be to believe, were born in still more recent times. The Depression was a time during which many of today's teachers grew up. Although students thinl"' things hove been in bad shape recently, they were even worse then . Teachers of today then took strange classes lil<;e reading , writing and arithmetic. These were known as the three R's which shows that not much emphasis was put on spelling . During the Depression, nothing cost very much. Unfortunately, people hod even less money tG> spend . When teachers of today were young they often wore clothes 1 ... nown as hand- -- -- me-downs . These were pieces of apparel that hod been worn by older brothers or sisters. Fortunately, modern technology has brought forth clothes that wear out well before they can be used by more than one person . Teachers didn't drive cars to school when they were students as frequently as students have in recent years . Instead , they devised other means of travel , things lil<>e riding a horse or actually woll<;ing . Clearly, teachers of today faced many problems when they were young, as students do today. It just proves that teachers ore people, too, just sl ightly older people. Fillebeck, Joan Galle , Leona Horris, JoAnn Holbrook.

For tal~ing these classes, of course, the students earned credits. However, there was one required class that no one ever got a credit for, a "class" that grew near and dear to the hearts of all those who had it. Of course, I'm referring to homeroom . Fortunately for many students , they were not quite awake during homeroom and missed out on its many comp! exities. For those students who did nod off. the following is what they missed out on: The first bell for homeroom sounded at 8 :20. A second bell sounded five minutes later. Generally, the bulk of the students arrived as the tones of the second bell began to die down. Then , when everyone was in their seats and attendance had been taken, the morning announcements were read . Students looked forward to these announcements longingly, hanging on to each word about the latest TJPA bake sale or golf match . A special treat at the top of each day's announcements w as the thought for the day, probably written by some • hermit on a mountaintop somewhere who had nothing better to do than com template the wonders of the world . Directly beneath the thought for the day could be found the days' menu for the cafeteria . While the thought for the day evoked great thought 24 Academics Moth Crouse, Charles Hansen, Steve Rosenthal, Jock Spero, Agnus Todd, Terry Science Hole, Mike Hoirdimon, Steve Physical Education Kinsel, John Nielsen, Oob Pierson, Lavonne Semler, Sharon Taylor, Ton'o Not pictured Ho ll , George from the students, the lunch menu evoked something that was equally deep, a deep depression . Such delicacies as Texas straw hats and Turl~ey Marco Polo were announced during homeroom, giving students until fourth hour to figure out what the food actually was. On some days, homeroom offered students a chance to elect candidates to such important offices as the student council and Tw irp court. Students also fi lled out a poll in homeroom indicating w hat mini-courses they w ere interested in taking . How ever, when students went to actually choose their mini-courses, they seldom found the ones they had selected on the polls available. The homeroom a student had was supposed to determine where his locker w as located. However, students often found it more convenient to stick their oo l~ s in the locker of a friend near the student's classes . Many students didn't even bother to rent a locl~er . moving in w ith a friend from another homeroom from the beginning . After five minutes of listening to announcements , casting meaningful vo tes and hurrying to finish homework that should have been done the night before, students left homeroom and headed for first hour. Although no one ever received a credi t for homeroom they certa inly deserved one for enduring its many trials and tribulations . copy by Mil~e Larsen ,, TflE Olllf OFF Home rco (Y) so neo.....-l.. a..nd excit 1119.

Plus we're tol,ing physical fitness tests in P.E. I'm gonna go CRAZY( Sound familiar? This type of complaining was often common during quarter and semester breol,s . It never foiled for at least three teachers to pion a test for the some day or they really piled on the homeworl,. Actually, teachers didn't get together and pion to give tests all on the same day, but it just seemed to worl' out this way. And of course, no one actually went crazy. They l'ept their sanity along with their fabulous grades and sighed a huge sigh of relief that the final tests were all over with for the time being. l3ut there was a lot more to a test then just tol,ing it, there was studying . All students studied in all different ways . Senior Anne Kenealy said , "I study with lots of food, a T.V. and a stereo ploying some relaxing music." However, some needed peace and quiet to study. Senior Kelly Heath said , " I study somewhere where it's really quiet so I con concentrate on my worl' and memorize it." Sophomore Lori Kirchhoff said, "The night before a test I just cram ." And still yet, others didn't study at all . They quietly tool' on F on the exam and hoped that they passed the course to receive a well-needed credit. Simply by paying close attention in class and portal,ing in discussions in the classroom was good advice to follow to ace a test. However, a good memory was a necessity. Some students seemed to be so gifted that they never needed to study in any way at all. Although , these students were very few and for between. ACT tests were also important to tol,e, and they were almost impossible to study for. Thi5 test was usually tol,en by college-bound juniors and seniors and it was a necessity for admittance to almost any college . The tol,ing of the test started at 8 o .m . on a Saturday morning and usually ended about J-4 hours later. This often meant on early Friday night home for the test tol~ers . Senior Kathy McCollum said , "The ACT test was the hardest test that I hove ever tol,en. I don't see how anyone could even get on 80 % on it unless they were a genius." Junior Mil'e Clift said , "I was very tired when I tool~ the ACT test and I didn't thinl' that I would score too high . I thinl' they should hove them in the afternoon or night instead of so early in the morning ." Still students as a whole did not care to tal'e tests at all. And when it come to tal,ing finals there was nothing too good to be said . "It is a bit hard to remember bod~ for the whole semester unless you have a photographic memory. And get a decent grade on a test lil~e that," said junior Joe Rhinehart. copy by Sheila Main Social Studies Bremmer, Ed Hansen, Don Hoffman, Mike Moore, Doniel "Bi ll" f\outerkus , Jerry Smi lley, Bob Voigts , Bruce Individual Instruction Sopp, Bob MUS•iC Brabec, Jerry Dickinson , Jennifer Gray, Jerry Waddington, f\ob Academics 27 St; AV II NC Within the post month I've experienced three so-coiled types of punishment here at Tee Joy. I spent one day in the in-school suspension room rockin' to the sounds of Z-92. Five hours of detention which were stretched out to on hour every morning for o week, and lost but not least, l~icl~ed out of school for three days . The worst things about any of these was answering the questions people hod about what I hod done. In-school suspension wasn't too bod. We just sot around and looked at old magazines and listened to the radio . We didn't get breaks between classes, but we hod 5 or 1 0 minutes extra on our lunch hour. I think the detention time was the worst. I was sentenced to study hall every morning for one wee!~ . unless I could find a teacher to get me out, and ofter one day in study hall I did just that. Suspension and detentions hod gotten completely out of hand at Tee Jay. They were given for almost every offense no matter how minor. I don't hove any suggestions about what should be done about punishment, but I didn't hinl~ that these punishments were solving any of the problems . After oil, the some l~ids were usually in the in-school suspension room for weel~s at o time. Librarians . k A Oorw 1 1c , r ene Morse. Dorothy Audio Visuol' Murphy, Pot Nurse Tellonder.

' If any one has ever seNed a detention, they may thin!~ that it was all a bit too childish for students in high school. Detentions were meant to be disciplinary measures designed to l~eep students from breal~ing school rules , cutting classes, or being tardy too often. SeNing a detention means sitting in a desl~ for 40 minutes, eyes forward and feet on the floor, and no tall~ing or sleeping allowed. [3ut did this all really mal~e any sense? How can sitting for 40 minutes, staring at a wall , break students from breaking school policies and being tardy? Although it was a well l~nown fact that the <II "' c 0 -, c 0 a >- .0 g 0 .c a. TIHIAT IAD same students occupied the detention room day after day, maybe there should have been different punishments to discourage these students from wrong doings. Maybe if they were given an assignment to complete in that 40 minutes, it would discourage students from ending up in the detention room . Even mal~ing ·· them copy the Gettysburg Address or a page from the dictionary would help. At least if they copy it enough times, they may eventually learn something.

Junior Chris Acl~erson said, "I thin!~ that the detention system is ridiculou9." Assistant Principal James Van Moonen explained that mal~ing students sit and thin!~ about their wrong doings would maybe make them not do it again. He said that.mal~ing them sit for 40 minutes was a lot tougher than doing worl~ . However, maybe if these students were l~ept busy with some sort of educational worl~ instead of 40 minutes of monotonous restrictions , it would maybe reduce the number of rules brol~en and perhaps even educate the students a little bit more. copy by Sheila Main Senior Mott Elder stretches out on a desk to make himself more comfortable while serving on in-school suspension .

I just got my schedule and I have fourth hour study hall, so I get an hour and a half for lunch!" 13esides study halls giving students a break from classes, study halls often provided students with an extend~d lunch hour. Study halls were very easy to sign out of, all that was needed was a pass signed by a teacher. If a student held an honors pass, they didn't even have to attend study halls. Many students, however, did not know that leaving the school grounds was against the school policy. 13ecause insurance did not cover injuries to students off the school property, they were only allowed to leave during· lunch periods to somewhere like McDonalds next door, or Safeway across the street. Senior Kelly Heath said, "I lil~e having an honors pass so I can sl~ip the study halls and do as I please." "Since I have fourth period study hall and an honors pass, I usually go home and watch All My Children on T.V. ," junior Jeri Shudal~ said . Other students preferred to study during their study hall, which by the way, was the main purpose of having them. Students could go to the library and do some homeworl~ . read the papers, or even play a game of checl~ers or chess . Many students also went to the student lounge and sat around and did whatever they wanted to do.

"They are the guys and girls in this school that are out for every sport. They thin!~ they're real cool and wear their sweatsuits in the student lounge all the time," senior Lisa Petry said . "Sports means everything to them. They thinl~ they're great at everything , even if they're rotten . A jocl~ thinl~s that if you're not in sports then you're nothing," senior Sheryl Sinclair said. Senior Carol McKenzie said, "They are some one whose main purpose is to be in sports . Sports is their big thing." The word 'jocl~" has certainly become a very derogatory term. "There is a difference between a jocl~ and an athlete ," said physical education teacher LaYonne Pierson. "A jocl~ thinl~s they're great but does not have the sl~ills . An athlete, on the other hand, has the sl~ills , the mind and the education it tal~es to be in - volved sports .

Although Tee Jay lost 85-58 to West Des Moines Dowling, "We ployed pretty well considering we played one of the bEijt teams in the state," Head Coach l3ob Nielsen said. "It was a very unselfish team, everybody played according to the role they were suppose to play," Coach Nielsen said . "Earlier in the year it wasn't that type of situation," Coach Nielsen said referring to the team's 6-1 6 record . According to Coach Nielsen, junior Word Prine had, "a very good yeor. He scored more single points in a single year than any other player at this school." "He's also aware it takes five people to make a team," Coach Niesen said .

Ford, who tied for first In the high jump (6'2112") was seventh w ith 2,865 points and Paulson won the 200 meters w ith a time of 23.0, was ninth with 2,824 points. "It's kind of a grueling test of endurance because every tenth of a second - means points," Doug Muehllg, assistant track coach said. Tables were set up based on world records and p<;>lnts were given depending on the performance. The better the performance, the more points that ore scored . 66 Troc.k Senior Cheryl Hall became the first girl from Tee Jay to score at the State T rock meet in Des Moines.

They were there once too. It's true we were at the top of the list last year in junior high and we're back at the bottom now. But lool~ at all the special privileges we have now that we've never had before. One of the best privileges we were offered was so many more choices in classes. One of the biggest tall~ecr about classes being drivers education. Getting your license is a pretty big deal as we all see it, and getting a credit for it too!! Now that's a privilege for sure!! t p I Some other privileges we've never experienced are getting to leave the building for lunch. Whether it's going to McDonald's or just grabbing something at Safeway. We couldn't have ever done that before. And then there is honors passes, if we were lucky enough to receive them. Being able to go to the library or tal~e a rest in the . student lounge by just showing teachers a little card that was so well deseNed . And speal~ing of the student lounge, that is something we can't say we've ever had before. 'I' II/~" Being able to grab a candy bar or a can of pop in our free time. Remember there were times when chewing gum was totally unheard of. There are just so many other new things to us like short days, and all the different activities we con join and all the opportunities to get involved with our school spirit or just our own personal interests. We're treated a lot more lil~e we're our own person too. We get to make our own decisions about a lot of things. and if we have a problem that needs to be solved the teachers and the counselors are always there to listen . Just ool~ at all these things we have, it's not half as bad as everyone thinks . It's not bod at all. We could add more and more to all the special privileges we've been offered here as sophomores but we could just go on and on. I think we have the point across that things have never been this good.

One sophomore that knew his shoes was Joe ~ocha. Joe had six pairs of tennis shoes and said Nikes were the most popular brand. What made these brands different from others? Joe said, "They ore not made cheap and they ore built better." According to Joe the life span of one of these brands of tennis shoes was seven months.

It seems all we do is consider a junior to be 'just a junior" and it's not as bod as everyone thinl~s.

Junior Teri Dasovich is also lool~ing forward to her senior year. "I can't wait, it'll be fun getting out early and doing things I didn't get to do this year." 13eing a junior means so much more. We're being lool~ed up to by the sophomore class and still having someone ourselves mol~es things a lot easier on us. We hove time to remember all the fun times we left behind and even the '1' II/~" t i m e s that weren't so fun . We have time to thinl~ about the things that lie ahead . We didn't hove to mol~e any quicl~ decisions that we weren't ready to mol~e . We tool~ our time and decided just what it was that we wonted to do with the rest of our lives. Do we really w ont to go to college? Where at? What do we wont to be? Or do w e really wont to go at all? Those were the questions the seniors hod to deal with and we were l~ind of glad we w eren't in their shoes at that time. 13ut time hos gone a lot foster than we expected, and those decisions that seemed so for away are now here and have to be faced . There isn't much more time to rest. This will be the best year of our high school lives , so let's all mol~e it a year to remember! We're at the top now, and it's time for us to tol~e over.

"It", in many coses, refers to slang, something that was heard frequently in the halls throughout the year. The dictionary defines slang as: "the special vocabulary of a certain class, group or profession." Oh, I'm just sure. Really, it's saying things that no one else con possibly understand unless they're on the some wove length, if you l~now what I mean. English teachers tried to teach l~ids the proper way to shoot the bull, but the l~ids were usually too busy drooling over some fox or hunl~ . Either that, or they spaced if off. Either way, the teachers bombed out royally. Of course, some of the students were a little bombed out themselves. Some of them were even burned out, which wasn't too cool. So these teachers ended up loo ~ing lil~e real losers, which was a bum rap because it wasn't their fault when a student tried to catch some l 's during class. Of course, that's a low blow to those students who hit the bool~s and crammed every night. When students get out into the real world, maybe they'll be able to see .. what was going down bod~ in high school and they'll realize they weren't such macho dudes ofter all. Then they'll w ish they'd spent their time being brains instead of jocl~s and hod studied at night to ace their tests instead of cronl~ing up the tunes and jamming while cruising down [3roodwoy ofter dorl .

The symptoms affected senior males and females . Those affi lliated with the disease had a noticeable increase in their tardies and became more compulsive and creative in cutting classes. They were very easily bored w ith their present classes and their lives. The causes were apathy, w hich came from a feeling of no longer being involved in high school . Life began to stop centering around cheerleoding, student council, and basl'ietboll, and future plans continued . Seniors usually only needed 2 or J more credits to graduate, and grades didn't seem too important since they came out too late for Notional Honor Society or scholarship applications. The ultimate shod'i of having to al~e on adult responsibilities caused 112 Seniors BIT ' 1 seniors to space off school for o ne last day. This resulted in the traditional senior skip day held every year at on out of town porl~. Though not fatal, senioritis may be incurable. Here ore some helpful suggestions to overcome this so-called senioritis: Sleep o lot and pretend that you don't core anymore. Tol'ie 0 trip to Siberia until May, and then come to Oaccalourette. Stoy home with your family for one whole weel'i, and by that time you'll be so sicl'i you will want to come to school. Skip one day per weel'i the whole year. Work every weekend and have no social life at all, that way school will seem very exciting . Get grounded from everything by wrecl'iing the family car. copy by Sheila Main ,- Michele Denise Lee [lobbie Jo LeRette Porn Pon Roadshow Scott Evan Liddick Michael Dean Lisle Lonny Aaron Lovelady Kathleen Joy McCollum Tapline Roadshow Janie Teresa McCormick Lari Lee McKeighan Carol Irene McKenzie O .E Teresa Renee McManigal Joel~ [lrian Mahaffey Thespian [laseball Sheila Diane Main Yearbook Sig no I Kimberly Anne Martin Cheerleading Snowball Queen Stephen Ray Martinez Football [laseball Robert Dean Mathena Sheila Marie Mazzei Volleyball Roadshow Keith Cecil Meadows Traci~ Signal Susan Ann Michaelsen NHS Glee ~ ~ = ~ u ~ ~ Seniors 11.'.3 13renda Jean Miller Thespian Varsity Chair Erin Sue Mitchell Rabin Lee Malgoard TJRA Language Club Rebecca Ann Moore O.E.

E IOR ARE BIT D RD The cost of living seemed to have hit everyone hard, but the hardest hit had to be the seniors. Not only did seniors have to finance their own personal entertainment and needs all year long, but they had many senior and college costs to meet. First of all, were the senior's class dues which were only $2.50, but were $5 if one didn't pay junior class dues the year before. In order to march, the senior must, of course, have a cap and gown, which costs $17. This also enabled the student to l~eep a cap and a tassle . Graduation announcements cost approximately $15 per box of 24. Extra gifts and accessories ranged from $5 to $20. Although , these two necessities were well under the cost of getting them from a professional printer or tailor. Senior portraits were also an expensive must. Pa cl~ages were purchased at various prices all the way up to $300. A sitting fee was charged just to get the pictures tal~en , and that usually cost anywhere from $1 0 to $ 20. $1 00 was spent very easily and quicl~ly on senior portraits . In order to go to the senior banquet, a senior had to forl~ over another $10.50 for a steal~ dinner at the 64 Club. "Geing a senior is pretty expensive. If you're a senior and wont to participate a lot with the class, you definitely need a job," senior Don Hilliard said . "Your senior year is your best year, so spending a lo t of money on it should be worth it all," said senior Jill Jones. 'T m glad I'll neve r be a senior again. After this year I'm almost dead ol~e " senior Tommy Dolton said .

Well graduated seniors , ore we scored? Is it finally beginning to sinf<; in that we're out of high school for good? Did we really believe it would last forever. We've really had some fun times though, football and basketball games in the winter and baseball in the spring and summer. We really couldn't soy that we hod nothing to do. Of course, some of us weren't lucl"Y enough to attend the boll games because we were working . Trying to mal~e enough money for college, a car, or whatever seemed next to impossible. And then there was senior skip day. Some love to reminisce about that particular day and others would just as soon forget it. Some of us tried to remember it, but the whole day seemed to be blocked-out from the ol' memory bani~ . Wol~ing up the next morning w ith one massive migraine didn't help much either. (If yo l~now what I mean). A lot of us thinl~ that we have to lose our friends when we graduate. That may be true for those of us that go away to college, but what about those of us that stay home? We only lose friends because we don't give on honest effort to l~eep in touch. So, when you're down, depressed or just feeling bored, give a friend a coll , it wi ll be more than worth your while and theirs, too .

Seniors 127 NeNes were strung so tightly some people couldn't even move. The graduates stared at the stage with anticipation for the moment their names were called and they were handed that one piece of paper that stated they were done with their high school days and life was now beginning. Through speeches and announcements, graduates grew uneasy. Soon their time would come and they would hove.to wall~ up to the stage. Girls worried a lot about going down the stairs ofter receiving their diplomas. They all thought they would stumble and foll . There were a few girls who did trip and slide down the stairs but no one was hurt, just embarassed. Superintendent Raj Chopra, who was standing at the bottom of the stairs shal~ing hands and giving words of encouragement, was a big help in escorting the girls down the steps and l~eeping them from falling . Once bacl~ in their seats the graduates started to relax. Giggles and smiles filled the faces instead of grimaces and !~nots of worry. Soon everyone would be through and the class of 1981 would sing the Alma Motter to finish off the evening. !31essings were given to all the graduates and then the recession began. The wall~ out of the gym was the greatest feeling ever experienced. Shouts of joy and excitement filled the hall behind the gym. Graduates practically ran to the auditorium to get rid of their gowns and start on an all night party to celebrate the fact that they were out and free from the hassles of school. copy by Jeanette Fisher WE SET SAIL FOR HORI 0 128 Graduation ;;; ~ .D 0 CJ >- .D 0 0 .c a.. 0 Principal Gaylord Anderson gave words of encouragement and hope to all the graduates of the class of 1981 .

I wanted to join all kinds of different clubs. For instance TJRA, Pep Club, Choir, intromurols, ploys, the list went on. After a while I realized that I couldn't do all of these things and still have time to toke core of my other responsibilities. I was stud;; with the decision of choosing which ones would best fit me and my schedule. So I started going to some of the first meetings of the clubs I wonted to join. I found out what worl;; would be involved. I also wonted to find out how I could fit all of these clubs into my schedule. I hod always heard how fun TJRA was, so I went to that meeting. There were quite a few fun things planned. I started doing those that I could, but there were too many outside conflicts. So I hod to get out of TJRA. Well I mode it, here I om my senior year doing a few of the things I really wanted to do as a sophomore. Yet I om doing quite a few things I never thought I would have the chance to do. I I Lil;;e Yearbook for instance. There were still quite a few clubs I wonted to be in as a sophomore, but didn't get the chance to go out for. I'll always remember all of the fun times I have had in Drama, Thespians, Yearbook·, TJRA, and lntramurals. I om not the only one who will remember all of the fun times. "I enjoy getting involved w ith school, and bond is fun," said sophomore Chris Wells. Junior Judy Prince said, "I lil;;e varsity choir because Mr. 13robec has a cute body." Junior Sue Koris said, '_'I enjoy Glee because I get a natural high from singing." Many people hod different reasons for joining the clubs and organizations they did; the reasons ranged from doing it for the fun of it, to wonting to get involved in the school. What ever their reasons w ere for getting involved, they put in many hours of their own time mol;;ing Pep Club buttons, typing copy for Signal and Yearbook, preparing sets and a large variety of other tasks depending on the club. Clubs and organizations are people doing things together . .. INSIDE THE ORANGE Clubs and Organizations 131 In October, NHS held their first blood drive, and although they did not reach their goal of 100 units, they did improve significantly from post drives, with a grand total of 91 units. In December, they held their annual food drive, in which all the members placed decorated boxes in their homerooms to receive donations of conned goods. They also held a bake sole for this project and the combined donations of food and money were turned over to on organization in the muffs for distribution to needy families during the holidays. Another seasonal activity was their Christmas caroling at local retirement homes. After the holidays, preparations began for the induction ceremony in which the new Notional Honor Society members were welcomed into the organization. It was held on March 23; there were 58 inductees . The ceremony involved the recognition of old members by sponsor Steve Hanson . Welcoming the new members was sponsor Cindy Whitney and a few words of congratulations from Mr. Gaylord Anderson. The evening was hosted by NHS President Fronl~ Grickey. Devotions given by senior Paul Gilmore and speeches on the qualities of NHS were given by seniors Larry Armstrong, Cindy Thompson, Cindy Riley, and Dave Knoer. The last project was their spring blood drive. According to Mr. Hanson, they surpassed their goal of 100 by 1 8 units, and although only 118 were accepted, there were 131 volunteers . As for next year, it was generally felt that some changes needed to be made. Mr. Hanson suggested that the meetings be conducted in a more formal manner, using parliamentary procedure. This viewpoint was supported by many of the society members. Junior Porn Waltrip said that NHS needed more control and that they also needed to have more activities, both service and social . Senior Dove Knoer summed it all up, "I feel that the Notional Honor Society hos opened a lot of doors for me. It showed me the importance of scholarship, character, leadership, and seNice . The prestige and advantages derived from belonging to such on organization were innumerable ." copy by Cindy Thompson 1 J 2 Notiona l Honor Society 0 :r: c t=:=r::::r:::::;r;::::=i~~t=;~ii!iii~ ~~t:;;1J~: >- .D g 1F-......;; ~Fol---F~+.....--'-i 0 -a. 1t:::illll•mmllllil• 11t::::a•• Notional Honor Society m embe rs mol e the new m embe rs fe el welcom e w ith a big "congra tulations" and the po sting of all their na mes on the cafeteria w al l.

Other officers included senior Dove Knoer, vice president; junior Marsha Ryon, secretory; senior Scott Doty, treasurer; and senior Potty Corcoran, clerl~. To gain membership in Thespians, a student hod to worl~ a certain number of hours in preparing for a ploy or appear in one of the ploys. Some of the moneymol~ing activities inwhich the Thespians were involved included singing to people on their birthdays and passing out farewell cupcol~es at the end of the year. Thespians also sponsored a large group district speech contest held in the late winter. "It was fun watching them get embarrassed," said junior Marsha Ryon , describing the art of singing for people on their birthdays . "The more you'd 'ham it up', the redder they'd get." "13eing a Thespian was a real honor because it was a select group of people and not everyone con just sign up and join," said junior Tyler 13rownell. In Step A total of 24 students were members of Dance Troupe in its third year of existence. One of the primary places the troupe appeared was in the Roadshow, where they danced to the song "ln-A-Goddo-Do-Vide" by Iron 13utterfly. The troup also hod many of its members in the cost of the rocl~ ballet "Tommy". "Stage personality and ability," were the main qualifications cited by sponsor John Gibson for membership in the club . "We've really hod fun and had on enjoyable year," said senior Dance Troupe member P.andy Sterba . "This is o nly my first year, and I thinl~ the experience in Dance Troupe is really going to help me in la ter years," said sophomore Jeff Alton . copy by Mi l~e Larsen 1 J4 Thespians & Dance Troupe (]) ~ 0 (]) > 0 0 >- .D 0 0 ..c: a.

This was how junior Neal Smith described his feelings upon learning that he hod mode the All-State bond . In his sophomore year, Neal reported that he hod tried out for the bond , but hod foiled to mol~e it. "I didn't thinl~ it was really a big deal then ," Neal said . "Then, I was l~ind of sorry when I didn't mol~e it." Sophomore Beel~ Sturgeon also tried out and qualified for on All-State musical group, the chorus . A total of 6399 students from across Iowa auditioned at various sites for membership in the All-State bond, chorus, and orchestra .

Mr. Muehlig in his ninth year as adviser said, "It was one of the better groups that I've been fortunate enough to worl~ with ." "They were a little crazy, but they worl~ed hard." Although all paper deadlines were met the staff did experience a few problems . "In a time of crisis the staff responded in a manner that got the job done, " Mr. Muehlig said. The days school was closed due to the snow storm there was no vocation for Signal staffers . The staff hod to come in to school early and shorten deadlines so the paper would go out on schedule. There was also a little matter with ads. (This was rumored as the time Mr. Muehlig got the most upset.) All the Volentine ads hod been lost and the staff hod to trod~ down 120 people who hod bought the ads so that page eight wouldn't be blonl~. Of course it wasn't all worl~. The staff did find time to hove fun too. The "very unique" carrot party in which a bog of the bunny munchies were decorated and strung around the room was, according to our advisor, "A nice way to release frustrations ." "We wonted to hove a bring-your-ownmeotloof-porty Cl3YOML) but we hod to settle for a carrot party instead," senior feature editor Lisa Petry said . It was a very fun group to worl~ with," Mr. Muelhig added . Yearbook changes ways The yearbook staff which consisted of ten staffers during the first semester and added eight at semester breol~ changed the entire method of completing pages . Copy still needed to be written, cutlines hod to be typed and photos hod to be printed. !3ut instead of just mol~ ng a layout and telling the publishing company where to put copy and photos, staffers hod to send copy to a typesetter and then paste down all copy and photos themselves . Although it took some getting used to , staffers agreed it was easier than the previous method. copy by T ere so Harl~e n 1 J8 Signal, Yearbook . Quill & Scroll (!) ~ 0 (!) > 0 0 E 0 0 .c Q.

Some took on night or port time jobs just to hove money to spend on those nights out with their friends . Many others went to school half of the day and worl~­ ed the other half. These students were usually in one of the Coop programs . Trodes and Industry, otherwise l~nown as T & I, was one of these programs . The students in T & I worked one half of the day at career-centered jobs and come to classes the other half. Students in T & I also participated in the Iowa ~ills Olympics, a contest for each student to show how they accelerated in any of the chosen fields. According to Wayne Mains, T & I sponsor, ten out of twenty-one students received first, second, or third place aw ards. "The T & I display placed second," afternoon sponsor Tom Vincent said .

If it wasn't bol~e sales or the selling of Christmas ornaments, it was traveling away to a secretarial contest. O .E. girls participated in the Office Education Leadership conference in Des Moines. For the contest the girls worl~ed on their secretarial sl~ills . "We hod a good time," sponsor Julie O'Doherty said . Their display placed tenth out of sixty displays. Worl~ ng half of the day and going to school the other half of the day gave the girls a chance to gain credits and mol~e money. 000000000000 "We ore a very informal group," Food SeNice Sponsor Mary Siebrecht said . The students in Food SeNice, which was one of the COOP programs, come to school half of the day and worl~ed a t a food seNice oriented job during the other half of the day. The group was considered "very informal" because they did not elect officers, and didnt hold meetings very often. Yet the group mode their way through the year very smoothly. Members of the Food SeNice were Pam Boucher, Lisa Clari . P-enee Davis, Pam Dupree, Kris Gaddy, Sonya Eggers , Teri Hiller, Robin Hitchinson, Marilyn King , Koy Hunt, Ken Huff, Bob Gordner, Sherman Hurst, Jeff Mccuen, Joy Riddle and Som Lee. 000000000000 Although the Office Practice class was not a co-op program, it was a class that prepared students for their futures . The girls worked on many units that would prepare them for an occupation as a secretary or an office worker. Included in the units were classes on using a telephone properly, using various business machines, and preparing and w ri ting an itinerary. In teaching the class, Mrs. Phyllis Wichman said that it is very rewording . Some former students come bad~ to visit Mrs . Wichman and tell her how they're doing . She really enjoys l~nowing that she hod at least a little port in that person's career. In the class itself, much of it was based on new offict: procedures. Mrs . Wichman said that she lil~es to prepare the girls as much as possible w ith the new office procedures . copy by Patty Corcoran 144 Office Practice, 0.E. a nd Food Service Answering telephones was just one of the many tasks Debbie Da hl did throughout her afternoons in the attendance office . 0 >-0 1- j) £ 0 0 .c a.

They discussed problems in sports, prior experiences, and looked inside themselves to find out what sports and life really' meant to them. Going to church every Sunday was not a requirement nor was actually competing in a sport. Topics at meetings ranged from what happened at practice to what qualities mode a good athlete or coach . Everyone talked freely and anything said was kept in·complete confidence. The club itself consisted of approximately ten people and it proved tough to get things rolling . "We hod very few members but hope to grow in the future," said Mr. 13ob Sopp, one of the club's sponsors .

Even the cheerleaders were standing on the sidelines doing the same old cheers the same old way. Yet, when basl~etball and wrestling seasons rolled around the cheerleaders had a whole new lool~ and style. The girls split up into different groups, wrestling cheerleaders in one and basl~etball in another. Then they brol~e up into squads. "It mal~es it so that we can work better together as a group," sophomore cheerleader Lulu Smith said . Many people were pleased to see the new cheers and mounts being done at the games. This added a whole new lool~ to their performances. 'The cheerleaders are doing a great job at the basl~etboll games, their cheers and mounts really mal~e the school lool~ good," sophomore Fran I~ Corcoran said . The girls worl~ed very hard to attain this new style, and it showed. As a matter of fact the girls involved in cheerleading spent a lot of their summer hours and much of their own time learning the new cheers and mounts . A few of the girls went to cheerleoding summer camp to learn all l~inds of new routines . The girls worl~ed very hard at what they did . Yet people always seemed to criticize them . Reasons ranged from not doing a good job at pep assemblies to not paying attention at the games. "It's pretty tough to l~eep school spirit up when there are only a few people who even attend pep assemblies," varsity cheerleader Vici~ Rule said. "I hinl~ it is on honor to be chosen a cheerleader. It shows that you want to worl~ and get involved with sports, even when you can't play the game yourself," varsity cheerleader senior Jill Jones said .

Captain Kathy !3rozeol likes their new sponsor and said , "Mr. Hansen hos really helped us a lot." Practices were held at 7 :00 each morning and at least three times a weel"i ofter school. Why all the practice? Well the year started off right away with football games and competitions . At some of the football games, the squad chose to use their own music instead of the bond's and use the fi eld ofter the bond for their routines . Not all of their performances were done this w ay , as they did a routine with the bond to 'Tuxedo Junction' at a home game in October. The Clorinda !3ond Jamboree was the first competition of the year. On October 4, with the bond, they traveled to Clorinda and did various rou tines and formations . The unit received a second place in field marching and-parade marching. The some program w as performed a weel"i later at C!3 Stadium for State Marching !3ond Con tes t. The squad received a I roting for their routine to 'If My Friends Could See Me Now' in a d rill team contest. Other activities included a trip to Des Moines on December 6, for Iow a State Drill Team Contest, performances at home girl 's and boy's bosl"ietboll games, a couple of wrestling matches, the Roadshow , various pep assembl ies and parades .

Students enjoy looking at this section also because it covers all of the events students participated in throughout the school year. Dances, pep assemblies and assemblies, plays and the roadshow are all included in this section. ''I'm really lool~ing forward to Snoball and the Prom this year. I couldn't go to Prom last year because I was a sophomore," junior Tracy Bartels said. "The roadshow was fantastic this year. It had a lot of variety," senior Terry Brown said. The assemblies seemed rather scarce this year. One assei:nbly, a slide show, sponsored by Pepsi was received well by the students. Pep assemblies seemed few and far between. There were a few pep assemblies held for the football ·team. The volleyball team was honored with one because they made it to State for the fourth consecutive time. "I lil~e it when we have assemblies because we get out of class . But I wish we could have more of them," junior Mary Riley said.

The drama department did their part with three plays and the P.oadshow, which were all a part of what's INSIDE THE ORANGE copy by Teresa Harken Activities Division 161 \ 0h What li Right The excitement of homecoming really began Sept. 12 when a list with the names of 22 girls was announced. They were the choices of who would mol~e up 1980's homecoming court. Traditionally the candidates hod always been chosen by the varsity football players, but due to problems lost year they were chosen by the student body instead. A weel"i later on Sept. 19 another list was announced. The 22 names hod been narrowed down to eleven. These eleven girls were the ones who would make up the homecoming court. The night before the game the cheerleaders began decorating the student lounge. Orange, blocl"i and white crepe paper was put on the windows and doors of the student lounge. Friday, Sept. 26, the day of the homecoming game, wasn't the ordinary school day. T&I held their annual corbosh all day long in the empty lot beside the fieldhouse. "I've never seen anything lil"ie it. I come from a small school and we didn't hove anything lil"ie that," Sophomore Connie Mcintosh said. In a lot of classes all you hod to do was show the teacher your ticl~et for the corbosh and you were allowed to go out during class. There was also a pep assembly held during sixth hour for a lost attempt to instill spirit into students. The homecoming parade started at 6:JO at Tee Joy and went down 25th Street at Avenue G, then on to C.13. Stadium. "I lil"ied dressing up weird," said Junior Chris Young, who participated in the parade. During the first half of the game against the Ryon Knights, we were the first team to score. As the players left the field, the scoreboard read 6-0 in our favor. "What I did for Love" was ployed by the bond as edch of the eleven girls was escorted onto the field . After a brief description of each candidate, the announcer's voice was heard saying, "Ladies and gentlemen, she hos brown hair and green eyes. Your 1980 homecoming queen is . .. Kathy !3rozeol .1 After she was almost mobbed by the porn pon girls, Kathy and her escort, Steve Shiller, were driven around the field in a red codilloc convertible. Then it was bock to football as the players come bod~ onto the field for the final half. But despite attempts we weren't able to hold our lead and fell 14-6. "I thought the players did great even though we lost," ·Junior Debbie Vogt said. Although the queen hod been crowned, the game was over and people were emptying the stadium, homecoming wasn't over yet. We still hod the dance to lool"i forward to. The dance was held in the fieldhouse from 8 to 11 p .m . Entertainment was provided by Complete Music. The music was ployed by disc jocl"iey Tom Stemple. Senior Deon Wood said, "I hod fun at the dance but I couldn't understand what the DJ was saying." "I hod a great time, I wish we could hove more dances lil"ie that when lots of people come," Junior Janine Meadows said. "It was the l"iind of music everybody listens to," Sophomore Cheryl Hansen said . After the dance was over and the lost person was leaving the fieldhouse at 11 p .m. homecoming hod finally come to a close. A lot of people put in a lot of time planning the various activities, and by the reactions of most students, homecoming was a big success. copy by T ere so Horl~en 162 Homecoming Q; .Y. ~ a Q; > 0 a £ g 0 .c a. .Y. u 0 25 ..c ~ >- .D 0 0 .c a.

Homecoming 163 Cnleteriu Rot The enly Place To ~at Lunch Probably for as long as there have been cafeterias in schools, students have been making fun of school lunches. The price of a school lunch was raised from 50 cents to 60 cents this year. But with the open campus situation the school cafeteria isn't the only place to hove lunch. During the four different lunch periods students go to a variety of places. One student goes to Safeway everyday to get cookies or potato chips. "It's better than the food in the cafeteria," junior Corio Clark said about buying food from Safeway. McDonalds is probably the most popular place for students. That is if they hove enough money. "When I eat I always go to McDonolds," junior Kris Madsen said, "I do not like to indulge in school food ." Some adventurous people try their luck and head down the street to Big Cheese, Toco Bell or Little Kings during the 25 minute lunch periods. But despite the alternatives most students just go down to the cafeteria for lunch. "The price of a hamburger at McDonalds is the some as a whole lunch in the cafeteria," junior Janine Meadows said . "During the winter I eat in the cafeteria because I don't like to go out in the cold ," junior Juanita Brown said. If none of these alternatives appeal to you, you're probably one of the people who spend your lunch break in the student lounge. Any time of the day you can walk through the student lounge and find someone studying, talking with a friend or just goofing around . The student lounge is a very popular place for students. 13oke sales are always held in the lounge. The porn pon girls practice their routines there. The awards showcase, candy and pop machines ore also located there. It's hard to go to Tee Jay and not spend some time in the student lounge. If nothing else you have to go through the lounge to get to the cafe teria for lunch .

And what time of year could be better than the Halloween season? "Dracula" starts out with Mino, ployed by senior Morlise Wondra, ond her friend , ployed by junior Marsha Ryon , standing in front of the curtain discussing the weather. Little did they l~now that the very mysterious Count Dracula was only a few feet away. Mina's friend soon leaves and there stands poor Mino oil alone to tol~e on the tragedy that lies ahead . Mino strolls across the stage and then a loud scream pierces through the audience. Mino hos been ottocl~ed by Count Dracula . . . "The ploy was unique because Dracula, ployed by senior Russ Rounds , did some disappearing acts," said sophomore Lori Kirchoff. Dracula also turned into a bot right before our eyes . "The way that the ploy was written mode it hard to interpret lines but my sister Denise and junior Stephanie Johnson, who ployed the port of Miss Wells, helped me out a lot," said senior Potty Corcoran who ployed the port of Lucy Seward . "Everything was great. We sow twelve l~ids, a lot of whom were new to acting and school productions, get together and put on a good show and get four standing ovations," said director John Gibson .

A variety of talent was displayed on stage during the two hours and 15 minutes of each roadshow performance. The roadshow opened to a packed auditorium of Tee Jay students as the matinee got under way on Nov. 20. "I went to the matinee because I couldn't make it to any of the other performances," senior Rich Anderson said. Three performances followed on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights. Emceeing the show was clowning around Jack Mahaffy, and a more serious Russ Rounds. Yvonne Kolo opened the show twirling a baton to The Emperial March. Yvonne made up her own routine. "Performing in the roadshow gave me back an attitude about school, " Yvonne said. But students weren't the only ones displaying talents . There w ere also three faculty acts. Steve Hansen, Roger Utman, Jerry Gray and Jerry Brabec song "Baby Face" . Rosemary Gray song "You Needed Me." Finishing the teachers' acts were Doree Ward , Coleen Lenners and Marilyn Nielsen who song "I Have Confidence." "I liked the teachers' acts the best," senior Margie Jerkovich said . While the roadshow was dominated by mostly singing acts there was a w ide range of songs . Two rock bands, The Outlets and Departure, by the sound of applause were the favorites for students who attended the matinee. "They were pretty good for amateurs," senior Rhonda Peterson said about the rocl'i groups. The finale w as a 1 7 minute dance called ln-na-goddadiwida. It was a very good dance but it lasted about ten minutes too long for the average viewer. "I got bored watching the lost dance," junior Amy Moore said. "It lasted too long." "I liked it and I hod fun dancing to it," senior Potty Corcoran said . Potty performed in the finale and 5 other acts . When leaving the auditorium there were different reactions but one thing w as obvious, the roadshow was filled with "The Many Faces of Talent." copy by Teresa Harken Senior Jock Mahaffy, one CIJ ot tne emcees ~ e for the Roodishow, o introduces the senior Modrigol. 168 Roadshow ~ 8 E g 0 .£ Q "' ~ 0 u c ·5 QJ ;:,;:: >- .D 0 0 .£ 0.. ..._. ___ _ Senior Yvonne Kolo practices her twirling routine o utside the student lounge.

We sow cheerleaders, porn pon girls, sophomores, juniors and scattered about were students in other sports and activities but "where was the senior class?" The senior class had to miss out on late afternoon pep assemblies because of short days and having to worl'i. Most students felt that all of the pep assemblies should have been .held in the mornings. "The late afternoon ones are blah!" said junior Terry Lines. Some faculty members disagreed, Mr. Don Schwertley, activi ties director said, "It's been a tradition to have pep assemblies in the afternoons . When we have our pep assemblies in the mornings everyone is too riled up the rest of the day." it was a good year for overall spirit. Some great moments .. lil'ie the girls basl'ietball game against cross town rival A.L. when, at the end of the game, the whole team tore down the A.L. poster.

YORE Ijli ~ lI DRE nm When entering the gym on December 20, instead of hearing whistles being blown and people yelling and rooting for their teams, students noticed a much different scene and sound . Tables were set up on each side of the basketball court. Girls were dressed in long formal dresses and the boys dressed in suits. Musical sounds from Rapid Fire, an Omaha originated Rock and Roll group, filled the room . "The music was great to listen to but not too good for dancing to," sophomore Jeff 13rown said. Although there were only two slow songs played everyone still had a good time. But the night wouldn't have been complete without the crowning of the king and queen. Reigning over the dance were King Jack Mahaffey and Queen Kim Martin, who w ere both voted on by the whole student body. After the dance a nice quiet dinner for two or nice crazy dinners for more than two took place at many of the Omaha and Council 131uffs restaurants . Seniors Amy Morrison and Sheryl Nielsen agreed that the dance wasn't what they had expected, but they still had a nice evening . Members of the court w ere Jean Aldredge, Kathy 13razeal, Susie Buchanon, Trish Higgins, Jane King , Queen Kim Martin, Julie Rosenberger, Rich Anderson, Kevin Corbin, Pat Duncan, Marty Hug, King Jock Mahaffey, Russ Rounds, John Sklenar and Glenn Weiss.

Underneath the trophy case sit the athletes, chuckling to themselves as the less athletic students meander by. On a bench in the northeast corner con be found the latest couple, a boy and a girl expressing their newfound love for each other in a voriefy of hugs and kisses . Finally around the main table of the· lounge, the latest bake sole or candy sole or donut sole or sole of anything else that students ore gullible enough to buy commences. It seems that students con purchase almost anything they wont from some organization, club or group, ranging from orange pencils with the yellow jacket logo to a complete set of glassware embossed with smiley faces. Hardly a day goes by when a student manages to ovoid buying something. "Wouldn't you like to buy a Tootsie roll to support the bond," a typical trombonist soys. "It's for a good cause." "Don't these Mand M's look good? Why don't you buy some to support the volleyball team?" chimes in a volleyball player. "How about a wastebasket with the words Thomas Jefferson on the side?" asks a member of the wrestling team. "It's for a good cause." "You hove school spirit, don't you?" questions a Pep Club member. "13uy a spirit button to prove it. It's for a worthy cause." If the students supported every good cause presented them, they would soon be completely out of money and would be a good cause to support themselves. Still, the soles continued . One good way for a student to prevent himself from buying too much "for a good cause" involves only buying items from people who hove previously purchased something from that student. Of course, that often results in the following type of conversation. "Hey, do you wont to buy a rose for your sweetheart for Valentine's Doy? It's for a good cause." ''I'll buy one if you buy a Volentine ad in the Signal from me." "Okay, I'll bring my money for it tomorrow. I'll need your money for the rose today, though." For some strange reason, when tomorrow comes, the second student hos forgotten all about the previous day's conversation and never does bring his money. Of course, when all else foils and a student is running out of money, and another good cause desperately needs his support, he con always remember the immortal words uttered by Teddy Roosevelt, who no doubt purchased many useless items from his resourceful Rough Riders, "Charge!" copy by Mike Larsen 174 Sales 0 0 ..c. a.

It had erupted numerous times since May 18, 1979. Despite numerous warnings from the authorities, some people living near the volcano refused to evacuate. One such person was Harry T rumen (no relation to the president of the same name), an elderly gentleman who drew much attention from the media for refusing to leave his longtime home. Truman died in one of the eruptions . His story, as well as that of Mt. St. Helen's itself, was quickly seized by a movie company and will be produced as a motion picture. copy by Mike Larsen 1 7 6 Ne w·s At 11 :33 eastern time the hostages were released. This took place three minutes after Ronald Reagan took his oath and was sworn in as president. After 444 days of captivity, the 52 American hostages were released by Iran on Tuesday, January 20, in exchange for $8 billion in frozen Iranian assets. The assets were frozen by President Carter, November 14, ten days after the hostages were seized by 450 Iranian students who stormed the U.S. Embassy to protest the hospitalization in New York of the exiled Shah Mohammed Reza Pahlavi . copy by Jeanie Peters On December 8 , 1980, w hile returning from what w as to be his last inteNiew. ex-13eatle John Lennon, a t the age of 40 was shot to death in front of his New York apartment house "The Dal-mta".

Pope John Poul II, on the afternoon of Wednesday, Moy 1 J , was addressing his weel~ly audience at St. Peter's Square . As he passed through the throngs of tourists in his jeep, shots rang out. The would-be assassin, Mehmet Ali Agco, was a 2J-yeor-old man from Turl~ey who hod l~illed the editor of a liberal magazine in 1979 and, according to the Moy 25 Time magazine, hod threatened before to l~ill the Pope. Injuries to the Pope included multiple wounds in the small intestine and the colon . Fortunately, none of the six bullets that entered the Pope proved fatal . Also shot inadvertently in the assassination attempt were two American women , Ann Odre of New Yori~ and Rose Holl, currently residing in West Germany.

When the vessel finally took off, it marked almost four years since the shuttle "Enterprise" hod token a trial launch from the back of a 747 . At the controls of the "Columbia" were astronauts John Young, 50 , and Robert Crippen, 4J. The key difference between the shuttle and the previous space craft was that the shuttle was reusable, and was capable of landing and taking off again as many as one hundred times. During the four years between the launchings a nd right up until the "Columbia " finally headed for outer space, numerous problems developed . Foremost among them were engine difficulties and trouble with the heatresistant tiles on the outside of the croft. However, all the problems were ultimately solved and a new era in space techno logy was launched. copy by Mike Hansen and Mike Larsen News 177 PtiRK v~. 50~ Monday was Grub Doy. The "costumes" were varied, because different people seemed to hove different ideas about what "grub" was . Most people just wore old , boggy, dirty clothes and there was one junior girl who wore on old pair of jeans that hod more tears and holes in it than she realized . Quite distracting! Country-Western Doy come Tuesday. Nothing really big there - just the usual cowboy hots, shirts and scoNes . We hod the hush buttons too, but only one guy bothered to tum his earnings in . The most fun come on Switch Doy. No, not all of the people dressed up, it was surprising at the number of boys who did . Most of them were dressed as cheerleaders . And of course, there were o few females that decided that o suit was very fitting for the day. Thursday, Joel~ Doy, seemed to get the most people involved . Those who hod them wore their sweats and worm-up suits, w hile those who didn't wore football jerseys or baseball cops . Friday brought o bit of o change to Twirp Weel~ . The Student Council wonted the traditional Fifties Doy, but they wonted o Punl~ Roel~ Doy, too. They couldn't mol~e up their minds, so Friday was Fifties Doy and Punl~ Roel~ Doy and the students mode their own decisions. Goth ideas went over well . There were the contests during fourth hour, too. The egg toss, ice cream eating, arm wrestling , shoelace races -just to name o few . 8ut the most memorable were the wheelbarrow races , which w ere pretty funny to watch, and the piggybocl~ races. We couldn't believe how many people were crashing (the person on the bottom w as blindfolded). I thin!~ they set a .record for the most crashes between humans and concrete! The eel~ ended with the Twirp Dance Friday night.

The reason given for this was because of the loci<> of coordination of programs throughout the school system. "There ore just too many activi ties going on at the some time," Mr. Gibson said . Gut despite the attendance problem, "the performance was excellent, " Mr. Gibson added. Tommy was performed on the nights of April 2J-25 . There was also a matinee at 1 :05 on April 2J. "All the performers were really good," sophomore Irene Ramirez said . "Gut towards the end I l<oind of lost interest." ' According to senior Joel<> Mahaffey, who hod the lead role of Tommy, the cost practiced about 20 hours a weel<o to prepare for the ploy. "It was real sho l<;y the first night," Joel<> said .

Without advertising, our yeorbool~ would not be a yeorbool~ at all . Within the first quarter of the school year. yeorbool~ staffers set out and sold as many ads a s possible to the merchants of Council 81uffs and neighboring Omaha . Over $2000 was collected from these merchants and used toward paying the bill for the_ yeorbool~ . Although $2000 sounds like quite a bit of money, it only pays a portion of the bill each year. Money making projects such as candy soles and Tee Joy memorabilia added to our funds for the cost of the year. Yeorbool~ soles were also a contributing factor. Another contributing factor to the funds were the senior ads idea . Ads were sold to the parents of graduating seniors . which would place pictures and ex press their good wishes to their children . Costs varied depending on the size and whether a photo was included . Funds never exceed the cost . The yeorbool~ staff always worl~ s with deficit funds. Each year is a struggle just to breol~ even . In 1976 students could purchase on activity ticl~et and on annual for only $17 .50 . The yeorboo ~ staff lost $J000 through this procedure. This is when funds fell for below the cost of the bill and went into debt. This was the reason why activity ticl~ets and yeorbool s w ere sold separately for the post four years. Still with the change. the staff still falls behind in mol~i ng o n even rbreol,. As of now, the yeorboo l' staff still tried to regain some bala nce to their funds . Hopefully, debts wil l ge t caught up and the staff con l'eep their heads above water. In order to help pay the debt of the yeorbool, , the staff decid ed to do the bo l~ camera ready instead of company paste up. This process saved the staff up to $J a page .

Some of summer's hot days could have been spent lounging in the sun in Florida or Hawaii. Beth Eickholt '86, vacationed to Florida and Howard Cronk '86, traveled to Hawaii. "It was the best vacation I ever had, we visited New Orleans and saw Disney World in Orlando," said Beth. "Epcot center was one of the most interesting things I saw." "In Hawaii I went surfing, boogie boarding, and wind surfing." said Howard. Some students ventured far on their vacations, while some stayed a little closer to home. "We went camping in the Badlands in South Dakota and it was great," said Darrel Woundedshield '87. Science teacher Cathy Crowl's vacation was a vacation to dream about, she traveled to Japan not only to visit her brother, but also to view the Japanese culture. "I went with my sister to see my brother who lives there. I had an opportunity to go so I went,'' said Miss Crowl. "We spent a week in Tokyo. There were a lot of people everywhere and they all had black hair," said Miss Crowl. Seaweed, octopus, raw horse meat, and deep fried crabs were some of the meals the Japanese enjoy, according to Miss Crowl. "The neatest experience I had in Japan was when I stayed with a Japanese family. We slept on mats on the floor and even ate with chopsticks,'' said Miss Crowl. Some students spent their s ummer fishing or skiing, whether it was the lakes of Canada or the lakes of Minnesota. "It's really boring in Canada if you don't fish ,'' said Traci Hogueison '87. "The funnest thing about going to Clitheral Lake in Minnesota, is that I got to water s ki and fis h,'' said Melissa Higginbotham '87. There a re a lot of students who went to parks s uch as Worlds of Fun, Ad ventu re Land or Silver Dollar City. "The neatest thing that I saw on the way to Silver Dollar City in Arkansas, was the red rock," s aid Becky Reed '87. Summer vacation soon ended a nd the new s chool year began. Summer was a blast, but I guess you ha d to be there. Copy and pages by Linda Brown 2 Summer Vd<. dtiom, Summer V acations 3 GUESS YOU HAD TO I t's hard to describe exactly what Tee Jay was like. I guess it was just all part of being here. The saying "I guess you had to be there-'' was commonly heard around Tee J ay. It meant the situation was hard to understand unless you were there to get in on it. Sure it was easy to gather bits and pieces and guess what it was like at Tee Jay, but that couldn't even begin to set the scene. You really needed to experience running across the tracks in gym s horts in the dead of winter. You had to be here to know what it was like in the crowded halls. Or those times we had to wait for a train to pass before we could cross to the parking lot or gym/music complex. These we re things that needed to be seen and experienced. · This phrase didn't just apply to Tee Jay. It was often heard by students that came to s chool on Monday and tried to explain an experie nce they had ove r t he weekend. Afte r they received a blank face as a response they gave up des cribing it by saying, "I guess you had to be the re. " Some might say tha t the '85-'86 year at Tee Jay was bo ring. Adjusting to change with the new facilities at the beginning of the year slowed us down. With the loss of Mini courses and new test scheduling the re was not hing to look forward to at the end. The re was a lack of excitement at Tee Jay. During those last few weeks we were faced with many disputes a nd acts of vandalism, these put tension in the air. We could only describe this year in one simple phrase, "I guess yo u had to be there."

Boy, did they have a lot to flaunt! Sometimes, it seemed that some people shopped all summer! And the results showed that this year. It was obvious that students had a different taste and attitude toward dressing, and looking great. Many students loved casual wear. Big sweaters, printed shirts and floral jackets were among the most popular ones. When dressing up was the game, some students played ful court. Great brooches and pearls were the favorite jewelry items love by fashion-conscious students. "I like to dress up because it's a way to be different and to escape everyday boredom," Sara Hansen '87 said. Many students dressed up just to "look nice" and to feel good about themselves. Dave Nelson '87 said, "It gives me a feeling of inspiration and makes me feel s pecial." With the T. V. show Miami Vice, came the clothes which gave a new meaning to the word pastel in the fashion scene. Guys decked out in pale jackets over even paler shirts with the Crocket hairdo (short, spiky, on top and sticking straight up) and of course, no socks. Troy Kramer '87, had his own definition of style. Except for a few very, very cold, cold days, Troy wore big Burmuda shorts with layered s hirts. No one else did this and this separated him from the regular crowd. The exciting part was that he kept this style throughout the year. What will Troy do next year? "Nude," said Troy with a big s mile on his face. All photos, copy, and pages by Banghye Kwon 6 Fashion ,. .

At the beginning of the year, before there was a chance to be bored, Homecoming festivites began with the carnival, car bash, game and dance. Soon it was time for the Snoball Dance and then everyone was dressing different and being crazy for Twirp Week, which was a change of pace altogether. Prom came before we knew it along with plenty of excitement. To know what these gatherings were really like, one would have had to be there. One minute we were bashing cars and the next we were returning tuxes and putting formals away, we were always on the go.

Photo by Michelle Nunez. We were there w hen ... IO Homecoming ~ It was a cold rainy day full of chaos and excitement. October 18 was the start of the Homecoming festivities. During the morning pep assembly the court was introduced. The cheerleaders attempted to get students pepped up for the game that night and the porn pon girls entertained everyone with a dance. Coach Nick McGrain addriessed the students about the football team and its record. Many students were surprised by some of his remarks, but later after explanations, many understood. Students bundled up for the Trades and Industry carbash as it was a chilly, damp afternoon. There was even steam coming off the dunking tank. Students actually volunteered to be dunked. "I wasn't cold at all. I thought it was nice," said Bobby Lamkins '87. To play the games at the carnival, students had to buy tickets from T & I students and use them instead of money. Some students were disappointed when their tickets weren't accepted, because some were fake. Someone bought a similar role of tickets and sold them foi:- their own profit. "Whoever sold them showed a lac k of school spirit, to try and cheat T & I from their money," said Steve Schmieding '86. This put a damper on a fun-filled tradition. "The carbash would have been better if I would have won something," said Lee Meyerpeter '87. "I thought the carbash was neat and a good fundraiser," said Cari Bryan '89. Later that evening fans entered the stadium armed with umbrellas and raincoats. The rain didn't let up until haUtime and then it was still sprinkling. The court was again introduced and Jill Aldredge '86, was crowned queen at halftime. "I was happy that the waiting was finally over," s aid Jill. Hopes of victory were drenched with a 28-6 loss to Creighton Prep. Muddy football players and wet fans left the stadium in defeat. Saturday night the rain was gone and students s pe nt a dry evening at the dance . The theme of the dance was "When October Goes."

At the Jazz Ambassadors assembly the crowds of students in the bleachers seem to really be enjoying the show. We were there when ....... . What a bore! That seemed to be the only way to describe our assemblies. Nine out of ten people questioned would agree. Lack of crowd participation when we did have assemblies and just plain lack of assemblies were some of the main reasons for the disinterest in pep assemblies. "We cheerleaders asked for several more assemblies than we had," said cheerleader Lisa Wolff '87. Many students were disappointed because no pep assemblies were held in the new gym. "Assemblies were too short and we didn't spend enough time in the new gym," cheerleader Joy Pierce '87 said. Maybe we should just be glad that we even had pep assemblies. One thousand five hundred people in the fieldhouse was quite a lot. Some schools wouldn't have even tried it. "I think it works out great, it gives the school a sense of unity," Principal Gaylord Anderson said. Other assemblies we had besides pep assemblies were the Jazz band assembly and the Phil McKinnely assembly. Both were a success. Phil McKinnely was a football player who played for the Birmingham Stallions who came to talk to students about drugs. He talked about his past with drug and alcohol abuse and how to turn away from them. The Army Jazz band members who call themselves the Jazz Ambassadors came to perform at Tee Jay. That was the first assembly in the new fieldhouse and also was a very memorable assembly. Everyone seemed to enjoy them. They played and sang songs from Huey Lewis and The News, Starship, and other rock artists. "It was like a small concert, it was very good," Joyce Martin '89 said. Mr. Anderson said it was sure worth waiting for. There was a- lack of assemblies this year, but with the addition of the freshmen it was hard to fit all the studen1;s in the fieldhouse. We discovered this the first day of school when we had the assembly to start off the year and get things organized. There were people in the back who had to stand. There were a few good assemblies and a few bad assemblies. I guess it was obvious that you just had to be there. Copy by Linda Brown, Jenny Faust, and Jenny Martin. Pages by Linda Brown.

If one hadn't known it was the first day of winter, the weather wouldn't have given a clue, as the sun had melted the snow and ice away along with the theme "Ice Castles". Couples arrived at the new gym with a date on one a.rm and can of food in the other. Admission was a dollar less if a can of food was donated to the National Honor Society annual food drive. According to Assistant Principal Steve Hardiman, the Student Council was working with the NHS to collect food for the needy during the holiday season. Students were talking and dancing, dressed in anything form long formals to casual dresses for the girls and suits to sweaters and ties for the guys. "Everyone looked real nice," said Walt Nichols '87, who escorted Ericka Kang '86. Later court members were introduced as they walked to the front of the gym for the crowning of King Scott Barnes and Queen Anisa Quandt. After the crowning took place, dancing, picture taking and eating resumed. "The dance was a lot of fun because they played a lot of slow dances," said Bud Petry '86. His date was Angel Quandt '88. Dancing in the new fieldhouse with freshmen were new experiences to everyone. There was also a concession stand run by parents. "I didn't like it in the new gym because it wrecked the floor. I think the old gym would have done just fine. I don't see why we get something new and have to wreck it right away," said Steve Schmieding '86. Steve escorted Tammy Dow '87. Dinner was first priority after the dance for those who hadn't eaten yet. "We ate at the Red Lion. I love to dress up and go out to eat," said Becky Daley '86. Becky went with Scott McKenzie. Others were off to parties, bowling, to the movies or just about anywhere e xcept ho me.

Weweretherewhen . .. We 18 Prom For many students the preparation and anticipation of Prom seemed more exciting than the actual event. Girls as well as guys spent weeks getting ready for Prom. When April 11, finally rolled around, it was time to go, ready or not. Girls spent weeks looking for the right dress and then all the accessories to go with it. Guys looked for tuxes to accent their date's dress and checked out limosine prices. Others made dinner reservations, ordered flowers and made reservations for hotel parties. All these things took money, time and more money. That final day was filled with last minute details. First priority was calling in sick to school. Then there were flowers to pick up and tanning sessions to attend. Cars needed washing and some extra rest was necessary for the big night ahead. "I almost didn't make it because I was in the hospital after my lung collapsed the night before. I got out just in time to go," said Bud Petry '86. Students entered the UNO Ballroom to find classmates as they never saw them before. Guys wore a colorful variety of Tuxes, some with tails. Girls were flounced with lace and flowers. Mr. Terry Todd introduced the court and then the royal couples. Chuck Vaughn '87 and Shelly Brabec '87 were crowned prince and princess while Darrin Jackson '86 and Lori Woolard '86 were King and Queen of Prom. "Everyone made me feel like I didn't deserve it," said Darrin. Little memory books were passed out to Prom goers at the door. Souvenirs of door hangers and candles were on the tables for whoever wanted them. "I liked the DJ a nd the candles were cool," said Schadd Gray '86. Dinner, hotel parties, bowling, movies and anything else filled the re st o f t he n ight and most of the next morning. "I had mo re fu n afterward s than I did at the Prom," said Troy Wils on '86.

Prom 19 WE WERE F reshman began the year a little confused and afraid of bumping into a senior or being late to a class, but as the year progressed things became easier. "It was such a big change, I didn't know where to go at first," said Laurie Jones '89. It was quite a change of scene from the small junior highs to the crowded hallways of Tee Jay, many adjustments had to be made. "It's all right, but it was kind of hard adjusting," said Allen Hoden '89. "I think people treated us older in high school and there was more freedom," said Heather Markeson '89. Although the freshmen were given more responsibilities and freedom, it didn't mean that they had matured. Some teachers had reason to believe that some ninth graders needed that last year to mature while others adapted just fine. "I like being a freshman because you meet a lot of friends, and if you're involved in a sport you have three more years to participate," said Mark Swift '89.

"It was wierd to be scared to start a new year. When I walked in the door, my knees were shaking," said Pam Beall '86 After stumbling through the construction remnants, st udents entered the gym to find a massive crowd of people anticipating the start of school. This year was a bit different tha n past years. This time there were freshmen in high school. The res ult of the School Board decision to move freshmen to high school brought along with it, many new situations. While some students s at on bleachers others stood at the back of the gym listening to Principal Gaylord Anderson's welcome speech. Many people continued talking until it was time to leave the gym. Homeroom lasted for an hour to fill out attendance cards and other first day tasks. Classes for the rest of the day were scheduled to last only twenty minutes. School was dismissed early bec ause of the warm temperatures. Continued on page 24 Fres hman Amy Midkiff and junior JeH Erickson e xchange "good-byes".

Halls were crowded and people were pushing and shoving. In one hallway people were going in so many different directions that everyone came to a standstill. "I got to the stairs and found myself in the midst of 5,000 people and I didn't know how I was going to escape," said Wendy Wolfe '86. There were little people running around the school that Sept. day - freshmen, of course. Many of them had heard rumors of being harrassed by upper classmen. They were relieved to find that the rumors weren't completely true. This was the first time freshmen had been in the building since 1961. "I think high school is more fun than junior high. There are more people to meet," said Candie Mount '86. Freshmen and sophomores weren't the only people new to Tee Jay. There were new administrators in the office and different teachers in the classrooms. Tee Jay e xpanded to accommodate the additional people. There was an incomplete gym and music wing on the other side of the tracks. Two new wings were built off the sides of the former new wing. "I love the new wings and I'm very excited to play sports in the new gym," said Jill Aldredge '86. Classes went pretty fast that day, even though the weather was hot and sticky. After a mild August, who would have thought, school would be dismissed early every day for the first week. As soon as the last bell rang students were off for some· last summer tanning, swimming and other things that would soon be forgotten. The first day of school was now history. There were only 179 days of school left to look forward t o .

Ill II 111111 B uzz ... There's the bell, hmm ... where should we go for lunch? "I usually always go out to lunch or I don't go at all," said Patty Ethen '88. The school's cafeteria was always quite a nice choice. If a student didn't like what they were having in one line they always had hamburgers and fries or burritos in the other. Other attractions of the cafeteria were the spaghetti bar and salad bar. The cafeteria also sold 'soft pretzels for a quarter. But if the cafeteria didn't meet a student's standards they could always rush over to McDonald's to beat the crowd. If the line there was too long they could go over to the Kwik Shop for lunch. There they had a large variety of foods, ranging from a submarine sandwich to a candy bar. Eating at McDonald's or the Kwik Shop everyday could get very expensive, not to mention monotonous. Some of the students seemed to dread the cafeteria, but actually it was a nice change from the fast foods. "It's really not all that bad," said Sheri Arndt '88. When eating at McDonald's a person usually spent an average of one to three dollars a day for lunch. In the cafeteria a complete, well-balanced meal was purchased for ninety cents or $4.25 for a weekly lunch ticket. So wouldn't one think that it would be a lot more sensible to eat in the cafeteria? Yet some students continued to go out. But there's one great advantage of going out that the cafeteria will never have, the outdoors. "The fresh air and being free is great!" said Kathy Landon '88.

Since the freshme·n moved in, the sophomores were no longer the underdogs. Some of the freshmen were kind of scared, others acted as if they had always been a part of this school. '1 thought it would be fun to come to Tee Jay because of open campus. But even without open campus, Tee Jay is still a great place to be," said Mike Watkins '89. '1 figured that the freshmen were going to be put down a lot because of the fact we are underclassmen, but no one has really put us down,they just treat us like regular people," said Jason Weider '89. Kevin Freeman '89 added, '1 wasn't scared at all, but I thought that we would get picked on. Before I got here, to Thomas Jefferson, I knew a lot of people already. That helped me out a lot." '1 figured the upperclassmen would be immature by calling us names. Anyway I wasn't scared because BIG DA VE is at this school," said Danny Nelson'89. (Dave was Danny's brother.) '1t was a real exciting experience for me and the other freshmen," said Eddie Rocha '89.

Being in a club was a good way to learn something and gain experience. Whether you liked acting, dancing, or singing or most anything, there was a club for you. In many clubs just signing up and attending meetings made you a member while in others you had to tryout or qualify. Earning points in drama class and passing an initiation was the entry into the Thespian club. In some clubs you had to be very outgoing and in others you had to be very intelligent. There were lots of new people to meet and it was a good way to spend some time with friends. No matter what the club you were in, being there made a difference.

W e really enjoy working with the girls," said the new sponsors. Marilyn Nielsen and Jan Hawkes became the cheerleading sponsors in October. Both squads, cheerleaders and Porn Pon girls, had been practicing since J uly and throughout the season. "I like being a Tee Jay cheerleader, it's a chance to meet new people, but I hate the early morning practices," said Rhonda Petry '88. Many of the cheerleaders and Porn Pon girls seemed to agree with Rhonda about the early morning practices. This year the standards for being a cheerleader we re raised.

This rule was strongly enforced with the new sponsors. A lot of people seemed to think that being a cheerleader and Porn Pon girl were the same thing. But they were actually completely different, the cheerleaders cheered and the Porn Pon girls danced. This year it was a little different for the Porn Pon girls. Not only did they perform at the home football and basketball games, but they were asked by the wrestling coach, Steve Meade, to perform at the wrestling matches, too. "It's a lot of fun!" said Dawn Spence r '87. Although the freshmen moved up to high school Porn Pon sponsor Don Hansen did not allow them to try out, but the cheerleading sponsors did. "I would never again consider taking ove r the cheerleaders too because it's just too much work for one person," said former cheerleading sponsor and present Porn Pon sponsor Mr. Hansen. During the summer both squads attended camp at Lake Okoboji. Though this was optional, many girls chose to go. The girls worked hard on their fundraisers, earning money to help pay for their uniforms and camp. They also had carwashes and bakesales.

WE WERE THERE SOUTH OA\\0TA W hat doe~ Reptile Garden, Evan's Plunge, Thunderhead Falls, and Mount Rushmore mean? Well, it meant a fun time in South Dakota, for 49 Jazz Band members. On May 22, Dave Carlson's band members took a trip to South Dakpta, where they marched in parades and also went sight seeing in the Black Hills. They raised money for the trip by selling pizzas. Not only was the trip exciting but the band had an exciting year as well. The band had 2 I Ratings, 5 II Ratings, 72 performances, and 3 second place finishes. These were a few of many things the band had accomplished. "All this was made possible with the support of the administration and parents," said Mr. Carlson. The orchestra consisted of 61 members. It was divided into two groups: the symphonic orchestra with 39 member~ and string orchestra with 22 members. Even though the orchestra didn't have a ny field trips, they had fundraisers by having bake sales and collecting pop cans. According to orchestra conductor Brenda Copeland, th~ Chamber Orchestra received a Division 2 . Rating at the state contest, playing for the Baccalaureate, the Western Iowa Orchestra Festival which they hosted, and the All-City Orchestra Festival.

Questions and answers like this gave Tee Jay's Brain Bowl team a runner-up finish in the KMA Brain Bowl with a $200 scholarship for each member including the a lternate. They also received a third place fi nish at the Peru State Quiz Bowl a nd a $100 scholarship for a Tee Jay stude nt planning to go to Peru State College. The four members of the Brain Bowl team who competed in the KMA contest were, Vance Buckles '87 (captain), Charles Boetteger '87, ' Bill Riley '88, a nd Cathy Pierce '86 (alternate). "Three of these four also competed in the Pe ru State contest. Jeff Faust '87 took Pierce 's plac e,'' said Coa ch Ed Bremme r. The KMA Brain Bowl was sponsored by KMA radio sta tio n 960 and was also broadcast on February 2 through March 23. Tee Jay defeated Clarinda and Griswold in the preliminary matches and defeated Malvern in the semifinals, but lost the championship to Denison. There were 39 teams entered in the Peru State Quiz Bowl held on April 4. The teams from four different states were divided into four brackets. The four bracket winners went on to the semifinals and then to the championship. Savannah, Missouri defeated Tee Jay in the fourth match 300-90, the worst defeat ever for Tee Jay. In the bracket final the brain bowlers were again faced against Savannah, but this time Tee Jay came back to win the bracket 275-200. Copy by Kevin Waugh What's a Thespia n? "A Thespian ?

Paula Pogge, '86 said that she really enjoyed the class and learned a lot from it. Some of the things she learned included office safety, typing tips, word processing and data processing, receptionist duties, and human relations. According to 0 .E. sponsor Julie O'Doherty, students also learn leadership skills. 0.E. gives students a cha nce to share job experiences and to learn from each o ther. She also said that it enables students to feel like a part of the orga nization, a part of the s chool. In 0.E. students learn phone and filing skills.

WE WERE THERE MAKING PLANS J ohn: "Hey are you going to the basketball game tonight?" Bob: "Well I don't know. Last time I went we got killed!" J ohn: "Yeah I guess you're right but still all of our friends will be there." Bob: "Well I suppose 111 go." The above conversation was one heard several times in the halls of Tee Jay. It seemed everyone kept up on all of the athletic a ccomplis hments. How many times did you hear John say to Bob: "Hey we have a National Honor Society meeting today. We're supposed to be talking about the spring blood drive. Are you going to go?" Although the conversation was not as common, the event was. Every year the National Honor Society sponsored two blood drives. In the fall of '85 our first blood drive was incredibly successful, bringing in 129 productive pints. In the spring of '86 our goal was raised from 100 to 120. At that blood drive in the last minutes of the day we searched frantically for someone to donate the la~t pint of blood needed for us to reach our goal. Finally a brave student stepped forward and gave us the pint to end the day with 121 productive pints. Around _Christmastime we held our annual food drive. Nonperishable: items were · collected and given to needy people. Student Council decided to help out with the food drive so they made admission to the Snoball dance cheaper if you and your date brought a can of food. Aside from being in charge of Homecoming, Snoball, and T wirp, Student Council took on several other responsibilities. At the beginning of the year we had to compile a report of our goals for the upcoming year. For the '85- '86 year we entitled our goal "Special times for special people" and devoted ourselves to helping the handicapped. For Valentines Day we sponsored a dance for the handicapped students at school. We were a little worried about how it would turn out but our worries soon vanished as council members made friends with the students and all joined together laughing, ta lking, and dancing. "The kids had an excellent time," said teacher Jim Ratay. "it would have been nice to have it on a different night, besides the night of the high school dance, but I still think it would make a nice annual event." Student Council also helped with Special Olympics, April 23, 1986. Also present at the Special Olympics were ma ny of the s chool board members. S uperintendent William Lepley and School Board President Joanne Carrithers. Both spoke on s portsmanship during the opening ceremonies. O ther things the school board members discussed during the past year were budget cuts, teacher cuts and possible school closings. They proposed that there be a fee charged for any student participating in an a ctivity. Walt Nichols '87 and Phil Meekins '87 agreed that it didn't seem fair to charge students to participate. "By the time you pay for your shoes and whatever else you need to have, how c an they expect yo u to pay a participation fee also?" Meekins asked. Walt added, "As a freshman or sophomore you might not go out for a new sport for fear that if you didn't like the sport it would be money wasted." The common belief was that there would be a drastic decline in student participation. All of the schools in the system were affected in one way or another by the teacher cuts. Tee J ay lost twelve faculty members due to the cuts. The biggest question this raised was "Is it all over or will there be more next year?" Only time will tell. Copy by Jill Aldredge Clubs 45 I WE WERE B eing a sophomore meant a new year, in a new school, with lots of new people. The terrifying fact of not knowing where your next class was struck many sophomores as they read their schedules. "I was a little confused at first," said Jill Amos '88. But eventually sophomores got the hang of things. "I like being a sophomore, we had more freedom, it was fun," said Karen Baroch '88. Most sophomores were turning sixteen and this meant that they would be driving soon. Most of them were enrolled in driver ed. After the course was over, if sixteen, they received their license. "I can't wait until I get my license," said Kathy Landon '88. Being a sophomore wasn't all bad at least there were signs that we . . were growing up.

Although they've had their ups and downs sophomores would still choose Tee Jay over any other high school. "It's an okay school and it's a learning experience for other students to come and attend this school. I didn't have any trouble like I thought I would. Now that I'm a sophomore I think I'd rather be graduating this year," said Rick Sweenie '88. "It feels great because I only have two more years left. I loved the first day because I felt that I would fit in just great. I did have trouble finding my way around the school the first few days," said Mike Leeper '88. The sophomores took field trips to the Henry Doorley Zoo and to Riverside Park for the last few weeks of school. They had lots of fun and really enjoyed being outside for a while. Some students thought that high school would be all work and no play, but later during the school year they found out. "Thomas Jefferson wasn't. that bad after all and I'm proud to be at this school. If you haven't been there, you ought to try it out. I'm sure you'd learn to like it," said William Negrete '88. Toward the end of the year sophomores knew they were going to be moving up in the world into a higher grade. Pretty soon they will end up graduating and all the tears dripping down the sad faces because some of their fell ow classmates will be going in a different direction. "It's Great! I wouldn't want to be at any other school. There's one thing that can be changed, shorter days," said Jesse Leafty '88.

But sometimes being a high school student brought the demand for extra cash. Some students saved and some spent. Savings were kept for upcoming college or cars. Spending, well that came a little easier. Weekends took up a lot of extra cash a part time job brought in. Dating also took a lot of money. Where do you work? Usually a typical teenager would answer that question with Burger King or some other fast food restaurant. "It's okay working at Burger King because you meet a lot of people, but I hate working around grease," Kerrie Puls '86 said. There were others though that held jobs at stores like .. HyVee and also the new dog track, Bluffs Run. What were the benefits of working? ''I worked my senior year in order to save money for college," Steve Schmieding '86 said. "I like to work at Pizza Hut because I like pizza and I get a discount on all my pizza, Tammy Shrunk '88 said. Some students held more than one job or maybe just several jobs one right after another. "I have two jobs. One provides money and the other will help me in my future career. Bluffs Run is my money job and my job at Midlands Animal Clinic will prepare me for the future," Tom Burroughs '87 said. Dave Nelson '87 has held 5 different jobs since his -------------------sophomore year. They ranged from diswasher at Lake Shore Country Club to lot boy at Lake Manawa Datsun . . "It's hard for me to hold a job because I have to arrange my hours around my leisure time," Dave said. "Foodland worked around school sports," said Craig Martin '86."I was involved in and also around extra curricular activities." Jobs provided a lot for teenagers. Some jobs taught students how to work with people, a lesson that would help in the future. Copy by Linda Brown WHO ME?

With all of the dances, sport events, and club activities where did academics fit in? In class was where we spent most of our day and it was really the whole reason why we were here. We may have never realized but it was in class where we gathered and when we gathered we were able to socialize and plan our outside activities. It was that guy in English class who asked you to Snowball. It was in PE where you finalized your plans for the weekend with your best friend. The best things about the classes we took were after English, Math, and sometimes Science we were able to choose our clases just as we chose our goals. We chose what classes reflected us and it was these classes where we met the students that were most like ourselves. It wasn't all fun. Those who wanted to succeed in school had to struggle through tests and quizzes. There was no guessing if you wanted to succeed.

Either You know it or you don•t T he first day of the school year students were a bit apprehensive when they were met at the Chemistry door by Miss Agnes Spera with a wet rubber monster glove on her hand. She made it a point to make the first day of Chemistry both exciting and gross. Later on in the year the Chemistry classes were stinking up the hallways with all of their chemical reactions. Across the hall Physics classes, taught by Terry Todd, also did some experiments, although they weren't quite as smelly as the chemistry experiments. "The electricity demonstrations are the neatest and the one where you figure the velocity of a bullet shot from a gun," said Erin O'Grady '86. Moving down the hall students in Ms. Wanda Synhorst's Earth Science classes drew pictures of endangered species. While General Science classes took field trips to the Botanical Garden and the Center of Science and Industry, in Des Moines. Then in Human Biology students did labs and worked on blood typing, blood pressure, and breathing tests. At the end of the hall Zoology classes did a lot of disections, like of the fetal pig. Finally at the end of the year they took a field trip to the zoo . ............ If students were really happy they would walk into English and write down how they felt. Writing down their problems may not have created a great piece of writing, but it may have solved the problem. "Journals helped me learn more about myself through writing," said Zilla Floyd '87. "Journals became an avenue for students to vent frustrations, dreams, and desires. Students really took their journals seriously," said English teacher Angie Ankenbauer. Journals were a requirement in most classes. "Most students think journals are hard to write but it's only because they have never written about themselves before. Journals help them to create their own writing style," said English teacher Rod Cameron. ••••••• "I enjoy Math a lot because I enjoy working with figures. It is one of my favorite classes," said Shawn Kannedy '86. There was a good chance that if a student didn't like one type of math class that there were other courses offered here at Tee Jay that would meet their needs. But there were those people who didn't enjoy any type of math and refused to try it. They claimed that after high school they would never use it again. But who's going to balance their checkbook? And who's going to figure 01,lt how many miles you get to the gallon? How long will it take you to get from one place to another:? · "You use math when you go the the grocery store and you know everyone eats," said Tammy Allen '86. 1 Copy by Michelle Nunez Academics 61 62 Electives School?

E lectives such as keyboarding, contribute excitement to the normal, but boring school day. There were many good reasons students took these classes, especially keyboarding and computers. Doug May '89 Said he took keyboarding to learn to type but he thought that the most difficult part of keyboarding was taking a test. While Chad Goetsche '89 said that the hardest thing he learned was to learn the keys and to type. Many students took the class to help them prepare for a good paying job. Computer programming was one of the classes offered to students and adults on our Tee Jay campus. Terry Todd, computer teacher, said that the course has been offered for six years. And at the start of those years, only two computers were available with an average of fifteen students per class. Now there are sixteen computers with two printers. The class offered to adults on Monday nights was taught by Dave McConnell, an elementary teacher at Walnut Grove School. "The reason for most adults taking the class is because of the changing times, 'the computer age'," said Mr. McConnell. A variety of people took this evening class, from doctors to lawyers. And most students who had either Mr. Todd or Mr. McConnell said that they learned quite a bit in the class. "I have received letters from past students saying they have learned more in my class than other computer classes they took," said Mr. Todd. Electives also included other classes such as Art, Cooking, Sewing, Foreign Languages, and Psychology, just to name a few. Some of these classes required students to have a certain talent while others taught new skills. Some have had numerous guest speakers, films, and lots of hands-on projects.

Photo by Brian Bohnet. B ottle openers, screwdrivers, plaques, hammers, and gears were just a few of the products the machine metal class made. ".We start off with an old piece of metal, cast or melt it, pour into a mold and presto!" instructor Ed Rhode said. Mr. Rhode who served in the navy for 20 years, has been teaching at Tee Jay for 6 years. Machine metals had two classes. Basics, which was mainly freshmen and sophomores, had only one class all year and spent their time on both book work and machines. The second class, which was the career class was basically juniors and seniors and was much more advanced. Algebra, geometry, and trig were required to take the career class and · students must devote three hours of their time a day. The students had a shop fee of $6.50 and the rest was paid by the school budget. They had required projects and when they were finished, they're allowed to make anything they're capable of making. Safety was a major aspect and that's why safety glasses were worn while working with the machines. "I really like making things so it makes the class fun for me," Todd Reis is '86 said. "I like the class because I plan on working with machines when I get older," Bob Evenson '86 said. The new C.N.C. machine or Computer Numerical Control really helps out a lot. While it takes a regular machine 9 hours to do a project it takes the C.N.C. 9 minutes. "Next year we are planning to program the Apple Computer up to the C.N.C. which will help us out and sometimes in the near future we plan to get a robot to help us get things done quicker and to make t hings a little more interesting," Mr. Rhode said. As for girls none enrolled this year but in previous years they've usually had one or two which were always at the top of the class. "I really like the class because it's exciting and educational," said Mark Nuzum ' 86. Mr. Rhode said that if you're planning on going to college it's a good idea to take the class.

On January 28, 1986, nothing seemed to be wrong with the shuttle at the time of lift-off, but when it reached 10.4 miles into the air it blew up into a gassy fireball. It was said to be the worst accident in the history of the ·U.S. space program. "It really w~sn't a real big deal to me, but it's kind of unusual because a shuttle hasn't ever blown up," said Shane Aherns '89. To some it wasn't a big deal but to others it was a tragedy. Michelle Essensohn '89 said, "It shocked me, I felt bad. I didn't think it could ever happen." If it seemed to be a shock to some of us, what about those who applied to go? "Danger in space was the last thing on my mind," said Bruce Voigts, a Psychology teacher who applied. "I was really touched by the tragedy, it was not only a loss for the families, but for the · teachers, too," said Shannon Cde Baca, science teacher. Victims of the accident we re Christa McAuliffe the first teacher to go into space, Micheal Smith, Francis Scoble , Judith Re s hick, Ro n a ld Mc Nair, Ellison O nizuka and Gregory Jarvis. Even though the families we r e d e vastat e d by the accident they wanted to make s ure the space program carried on.

Well we're pretty much stuck with bad news because there wasn't much good news. The new library was good news but the bad news was it wasn't completed until March, just about the time students were completing term papers. Good news did come with the additions to Council Bluffs and also to Tee Jay. The dog track was a major addition to Council Bluffs. It brought j~bs and attracted people from all over the U.S. The new mall was started and many new restaurants came to town. Romeos, Bonanza, and Caniglias were a few. New additions to Tee Jay included the .Qew library, new gym/music complex, and two 11 new wings of classrooms. The Omaha Bryan High School suicides shocked parents, teachers, and friends of the three teenagers who took their own lives. Change was part of what made up the news. In March, budget cuts for the next year : had an effect on Tee Jay. some teachers received letters saying they would no longer be employed for the next school year. Due to an ordeal between a few Carter Lake and Council Bluffs students, police cars were a common sight in the parking lot after school in late April and early May.

News 69 WE'RE GETTING A nticipation was a feeling shared by many juniors, as they looked forward to becoming seniors. But as for now they still had another year to wait. "The term paper was definitely the worst part of my junior year, but volleyball and tennis were the best," said Hyo Kwon '87. Being a junior was sort of a relaxed year for the students. The excitement of graduating wasn't for another year and the excitement of being at a new school was gone. "It's weird everything is going so fast," said junior Tony Spidell '87. Being a Junio r we were aware of the short cuts and tricks of making the grade. In the fourth quarter things changed. Something new and different arose. This was term papers. "At first I didn't think I'd be able to do it, but once I got started and kept my mind to it, it was easy," Phillip Meekins '87 said. Tom Burroughs '87 said, "I thought it was easy because I wrote on a topic I liked." Not all thought it was a breeze. Some · juniors found they shouldn't have waited so long to start on this quarter assignment. Tomas DeSantiago '87 said he started off great but his pace wasn't fast enough. He did not leave enough time to do the copy itself. Next year Tomas said he won't mind as much to write another one because he found out it wasn't so bad after all. "I think I got the hang of it so I'm ready for next year," Tomas said. "I had some problems and one of my friends helped me out a lot. I just hope I do better next time,'' Walt Nichols '87 said.

Playing on a team gave some students a sense of belonging. Some students participated in a sport just because they liked it. While others thought of it as a chance to be with friends. Whatever the reason, it took more than a group of people playing a sport to make a team, it took a group of people cooperating and trying their hardest. Swimming, t ennis, track, and wrestling all made it to State. Not all teams were quite as victorious but they did their best. Participating in more than one sport was common among students.

The season opener was against Sioux City East and West. We first played Sioux City West and defeated them 3-1. The second game of the night was against the East team. The two teams were evenly matched in determination and skill. But in the end the Yellowjackettes were defeated 2-1. The Y ellowjackettes season came to a fast end. Before we even knew it we began sectional play. The first sectionaf game was against Glenwood. It was one of the most exciting games of the season. Tee Jay was the home team and so Glenwood batted first. They tried to get an early lead by scoring a run in the first inning, but t he Yellowjackettes also scored a run to keep up wit h them. It was in t he second inning when Glenwood took the lead over us by getting three runs. We didn't score another run until the fourt h inning when G lenwood also scored four runs. But t hat would be the last time they scored. In the bottom of the sixth inning we still tra iled by three runs. It all ended in the bottom of the sixth inning when we rallied for four runs t o take the lead from Gle nwood . We then held Glenwood . in the top of the seventh inning and won the first sectional ball game. We then went on to play Lewis Central for the sectional championship. We were defeated 12-2. We still continued in the tournament play and went on to Regionals. In the first game of Regionals we met up with Denison, whom we defeated 4- 3. The second game · of regionals we met up with Lewis Central. This game proved to be a near upset for Lewis Central. Lewis Central was the home team so we started everything off. We tried to get an early lead on the Titanettes in the first inning by scoring a run, but the Titanettes kept up. There wasn't another run until the third inning when Tee Jay scored a run and the Titanettes scored two, this gave the Titanettes the lead but only for a while. We then came back with a rally in the fifth to score three runs and take the lead from the Titanettes. This was the last time for us to score in the game. The Titanettets also scored one in the fifth inning which only left them one run behind. There again was no score in the sixth inning because of the excellent defense and pitching of both teams. It came down to the seventh inning of the game. The Titanettes held the Yellowjackettes in the top of the seventh inning. The Jackettes couldn't do the same. The Titanettes scored two runs on a double and a single. The Yellowjackettes lost. Overall the Jackettes set six new school records. Twentyseven wins in one season was one of them. Three individuals also set new records, Erih O'Grady '86, the pitcher, s~t the record for the winningest pitcher in a season with ~6, and the most strikeouts in-One season with 269. Jill Aldredge '86, set the new record with the most base on b"alls with 31. The last individual was Michelle Doughman '85, with the most at bats with 138, and the most runs scored with 41. "We had an exceptionally good season, and we only had a few bad games all season, and we had excellent senio r leadership," said Coach Pat O 'Doherty. He also said that he had a lot of fun. Assistant Coach Sharon Semler said, "The highlight o f the season was breaking the school record of 27 wins an d advancing as far as we did in the state tournament. " "We had a really good team with very special people. We also learned a lot about each other and to care about each other," said Jill.

"I don't want to experience that type of season again," Don Froien '88 said. The football season wasn't all negative though.

"Although we had a lot of experienced runners last year, we actually did better this season," Willie McClain '87 said. Willie and Chris Schwartz '87 were the only lettermen to return from last year. "We had a good time • running for Mr. Muehlig and really learned a lot about sportsmanship during this unusual season," Chris said. "We had a balanced and talented team although the talent was new talent that had not had a chance to shape to precision. If some of the other lettermen from last year would have come out, we might have done better," Coach Muehlig said. "It was sort of weird to have a sport like cross country and it was even weirder when Mr. Muehlig started to ride his bike along side us," Dave Delawter '89 ' said. Dave was the only freshman on the team. The cross country team had an even record with two wins and two losses. They placed third in the Abraham Lincoln Invitational, sixth in the Lewis Central Invitational, and eighth out o f eighteen teams in the district meet held in Glenwood. Copy by Tom Burroughs.

Football & lronmen & Cross Country 87 WINNERS WERE THERE AT CAMP AND ON COURT 88 Volleyball , G etting away for the weekend was what some of the Tee Jay volleyball players did on March 1 and 2. Varsity Coach Sharon Semler and junior varsity Coach LaVonne Pierson took their crew up to Camp Brewster for the weekend. Every year they take girls involved in two or more sports. This year it consisted of 1 senior, 8 juniors, 8 sophomores, and 5 freshman, all being volleyball players. The girls did many activities like stuffing people with. balloons, playing football, pingp o ng, cross-stitching, and hunting for Easter eggs. ''It was pretty fun, but hard hunting for eggs two cm. high," said Carreann Carson '89. The theme was 'Winners and Losers'. The idea was to get the girls to feel more like a winner. "Hopefully the girls did some self-examinations of a winner · and loser, and of winning and losing. And they will go on and share their thoughts," Miss Semler said . . "The weekend really brought me closer to the upper classmen and I ·got to know 'therri better," Kelli Stogdill '89 said. "It was real exciting!" Kris Blackford '88 said. Bump, set, spike, talk, teamwork, digs, serves, great coaches, and many more factors were exactly what the 1985-86 girls volleyball teams had. The varsity team finished with a tough losing record of 11-17, while the junior varsity team finished with a winning record of 14-5. "We did very well as a team. We were inexperienced, which hurts the overall picture," varsity coach Sharon Semler said. This year's varsity team consisted of two seniors, Tammy Neuman '86 and Jill Aldredge. _ Sophomore varsity player, Shelly Duncan, '87 set a blocking record with 66 blocks. "It came down to the last game. I needed two blocks. When I got those two blocks, I was real happy. I looked at Miss Semler and everyone else, and they were all clapping for me" Shelly said. Duncan, only being a sophomore, will return next year. According to Junior varsity coach, Lavonne Pierson, she loved her team, they were a great bunch of kids, they liked each other, and they were a joy to coach, and they all had very caring attitudes. "I can't name only one key player because they were a ll key players. Volleyball is a team sport," Miss Pierson said. Copy by Amy Midkiff and pages by Michelle Nunez .

This was how gymnastics coach Mike Bond described the boy's gymnastics season. T earn members are seniors Terry Carmicheal, Bud Petry, Kile Keith and Kevin Rasmussen; Junior Todd Crouse; Sophomores Jeff Rohe and Freshmen Brian Bates and Mark Swift. The boy's team finished the season with a 6 - 1 record, an All-American rating as a team and a runner-up finish in the Metro Tournament. "We outdistanced all our opponents, except Papillion, who we lost to," Coach Bond said. The boys beat Central (132. 75 to 109.05), Bellevue East (127.7 to 75.4), Burke (131.95 to 104.15), Omaha North (133.5 to 101.15) and Creighton Prep (135.55 to 79.55). The boys lost to Papillion by the score of 111.4 to 124.l. Coach Bond said that Terry : Kile Keit h '86 moves through t he routine of his floor exe r cise. CHAMPIONS I e Carmicheal was absent from the Papillion meet with tendonitis, and that Tee Jay probably would have won the meet if Terry could have performed. This season the team combined to win 48 medals, they also had 10 individual first place finishes in invitationals and had two members qualify for All-American Honors. Todd Crouse qualified for All-American in the vault and the floor exercises, while Terry qualified in the pommel horse, floor exercise, still rings, the vault, parallel bars, high bar and all-around. Coach Bond said that the team also broke every individual record this year. Even though the girl's gymnastic team, coached by Mike Bond, finishing with a 0 - 4 record on the season, he was still very pleased with the number of girls that were joining the team. "The growing number of girls joining is good to see," Coach Bond said. Members of the team were juniors Dawn Spencer, Angel Newland, and freshman Barb Brennenstal. They were on the team during the fall/ winter season. Junior Shelly Brabec, and freshmen Michelle Greenwood, Susan Freeman and junior Laura Keim from Abraham Lincoln participated during the winter season. High points of this .season included Dawn Spencer and Michelle Greenwood qualifying for Sectionals, which was in the second round of state competition, and the team set a new team scoring record with 104. 7 points. The losses came at the hands of Sioux City East (78.65 to 118.65), Sioux City North (74.85 to 94.5) Sioux City West (74.85 to 104.0) and Jefferson, Iowa (78.65 to 109.45). Coach Bond said that the team also had a lot more injuries than usual. Michelle missed the fall season with an ankle injury. Copy by Phillip Meekins. Front r ow: Da wn Spencer, and Susan Freeman.

Cousins Dave Ackerson '86 and Phil Meekins ' 87 represented Tee Jay in Iowa City at the state meet. Dave swam in the 200m freestyle placing 15th and placed 20th in the 500 freestyle while Phil swam to a 24th place finish in the lOOm backstroke. "State was a lot of fun. It's cool to be counted along with the best. I was proud to be there swimming against the best swimmers in Iowa. It made me feel really good inside," said Dave. Dave and Phil were also named to the All Metro Academic Swim T earn for the 85-86 season.

Troy Wilson '86 and Sean Meekins '87 were the other two swimmers in the two free relay events. "I thought everyone did excellent. We didn't have t he best season in history, b ut we did good with what we had.

Swimming 93 IT ISN~T WINNING 01 LOSING IT~s HOW YOU PLAY THE GAME 94 Basketball A year of up's and down's describes the boy's varsity basketball season. An up: T erah Jones '88, as Head Coach Bob Nielsen described him, "A very exciting player and a super jumper," came to Tee Jay from Des Moines, to help the Jackets out. The dow·n part: T erah moved away at the end of his junior year and left a void to fill in part of the game. Who's going to block the shots and make the slam dunks now? Enter Chris Hatche r , another up: Hatcher will be a senior next year and, during his junior letter-winning season he led the team in rebounding and was t he second leading scorer. Another down: Coach Nielsen mentioned three senior lettermen that were valuable to the team that will be graduating. They we re Devon Higginbotham, Craig Martin and Steve Schmieding, winner of the Most Valuable Senior award, he cited t heir outstanding leadership to the team as being important. The up part to this: "We had a freshman, Robert Freeman, who was fourteen years old, playing against people who were four years older than him. Of course, in the long run this will be good for him," Nielsen said. The final downer: The team ended with a 1-19 record. The final upper: Their record almost has to improve next year.

Coach Meade said that the team was right on schedule with t he goals they should accomplish. Coach Meade 's main objective was to finish better in all tournaments. The main tournament for varsity was Metro. Scott Riche '87 and captain Tim Owens '86, took first place in Metro. ''It's not really a big deal being a t eam captain because everyone is doing so well, but it puts me in charge more," said Tim. Tee Jay defeated Abraham Lincoln 38-24 in a dual. "We were looking forward to winning. We haven't beat A L in a dual for seven years. We thought we could do it and we did," Coach Meade said. We took four wrestlers to State. This was the most T.J. has taken according to Coach Roger Williams. The wrestlers who went to State were, Tim Owens '86, Scott Riche '87, Steve Barnes '87 and Jason Boarts '89. Tim was the only senior to make it to State. For two years in a row Scott earned the trip to State. And Assistant Coach Johnson said that Scott has a really good chance to do it again next year. "This would be the first time for a T.J. wrestler to do this," said Coach Williams. Scott finished 5th in the State on March 1. "We need to improve by getting people in the weight room and start lifting weights," Coach Meade said. Ending with a 6-0 record Tee Jay wrestlers went undefeated.

Was it passing Mr. Rosenthal's Math classes or finishing the always treacherous physical fitness or maybe just plain graduating? Maybe these accomplishments did have their own sense of survival, but to approximately 50 athletes the meaning of survival was close at heart. According to Dan Weatherill '87, "It's tough. You've accomplished something if you survived." To survive track was like making a million dollars. Or like Head coach Bob Nielsen said, "To survive is to .letter." _ ..

He also competed on the 400 meter relay team that went to State and t he 800 meter relay team which missed state by two tenths of a second. Members of the 400 meter and 800 met er relay teams were Kevin Rasmussen '86, Bill Leonard '87, Hatcher, and Al Rubio '86. Bryan Brownsberger '87, Dan Weatherill '87, and Chad White '88 were three other key performers. Brownsberger tied the school record in the 400 meter run, Weatherill was a discus thrower and threw second behind Hatcher. Rubio also set a new school record in the 200 meter dash. White was a good distance runner and ran exceptionally well in the 1600 meter run setting a new sophomore record. In the State Pentathalon, held June 6, Hatcher placed third. The girl's season had a lot of success considering the survivors who finished the season. "With only seven to ten girls running or competing we did good," Assistance Coach Sue Tyler said. In the district meet Tammy Dow '87 qualified for the state meet in the 100 meter dash as well as a member of the 400 meter relay team.

Laura Faust and Hyo Kwon made their State debut in doubles after winning both the sectional and regional doubles competition. Rick qualified after placing 2nd in districts. "I felt like it was a big accomplishment to go to State in Singles, since I've gone as a doubles competitor, " said Rick.

On May .1, the varsity duffers placed fourteenth in the Metropolitan Conference Tournament. Instead of nine holes, the squad faced an eighteen hole course. According to Schmieding, all matches were nine holes except for tournaments which were eighteen. At the Metro tournament Martin, Schmieding, Hogueison, Kahre and Scott Madsen '87 were the five players representing . Tee Jay. The top four scores counted were Hogueison shooting a 91, and Martin, Kahre and Madsen all posting 93. "We. all need to improve on our consistency. Otherwise we play good as a team," Schmieding said. The squad held a 3-4 dua l record. Its victories came ag<ctinst Bellevue East and Lewis Central. The losses came against Papillion, Omaha, Bryan, Omaha Burke and Omaha Creighton Prep. " We've played very inconsistent this season. We have play e d some good matches and tournaments, but we were beaten by some teams that we shouldn't have been beaten by," Coach J a ck Ros enthal said.

Instead of lasting almost two hours, like outdoor, indoor didn't even last one hour. It was faster and more exciting. "It's not dangerous at all except for little things like pulled muscles and a few rug burns," said Troy Kramer.'87. "Indoor has less players on the field and it's quicker, because of the smaller playing field," said Brian Bohnet '87. "For protection." goalie Shane Moffitt '87 said, "I wear gloves and a padded suit.'; As for practice, they only have an hour a week, as a team. Some players practice independently at home. Shane's job as a goalie was a little tougher, so he had to practice a little more. When players received penalties, they served a twominute penalty and the team had to play one player short. Other players usually served penalties for the goalie. Some of the players had been playing soccer up to 9 or 10 years outdoors and indoor soccer for the last 1 or 2 years. Other than the goalie, the only real equipment needed was a good pair of shoes and a soccer ball. Once the spring season began the team continued to be undefeated with a 7-0-2 record with ties between Bellevue East and ties with Abraham Lincoln. Goals were scored in tournament play by Troy Kramer, Sean LeBlanc, Jamie Moffitt and Troy Wilson. We fell in the last game to Abraham Lincoln , the championship game, with a score of 1-0. This was the first loss and the only lo~s all season. Copy by Tracy Kramer Soccer team lines up before the game. They are Scott Hansen, Paul Abshier, Craig Lang, Troy Wilson, Gail Anderson.

There were so many things to do before graduation. Cap and gown measurements, announcements to order, senior pictures, senior skip day and all those other things that would lead to that long-awaited night. Being a senior meant so many different things to different people. To some it was being able to have short day or keeping underclassmen in line. To others it was a financial responsibility. "I just like saying I'm a senior," said Angie Brayman '86. However each person interpreted being a senior, it meant several things to all of us. This was the last time we would be a class and our last year in high school. There would soon be new challenges and opportunities to face . It was time to say good-bye. At first we thought our senior year was going to last forever, but time flew and we were caught off guard as we realized we had to let go because this was it.

February 6 was the day of the senior ski trip to Cresent Ski Hills. The senior skiers set the books and · : assignments aside for a day of falling down, getting up and in some cases staying down. Early that morning the lounge was full of senior~_ i!l snow suits, lo~g jo_hns, ear muffs, coats and numerous other things to keep warm. After we arrived at Cresent we only needed equipment and to figure out how to put it on. Now we were ready to ski - or at least some of us were. For those who weren't, Mr. John Kinsel's and Ms. Sharon Semler's ski lessons were a good idea. If some skiers weren't discouraged trying to . get to the ski lift, they had taken the first step and the hard part was over. "The funniest thing was watching and ·making people fall," said Steve Vashon '86. The rest of the afternoon was spent skiing, helping others up and socializing in the ski lodge. After waiting for a late bus, we were ready for a rest. As if a whole day of skiing wasn't enough, several guys went back later that evening and skied until closing time. .

It was a mere quirk of fate that an ushering position came up at the last moment for the Tina Turn er concert. I had been anxiously awaiting the concert date to be announced, but by the time I heard it, it was too late to get tickets. For weeks I walked around shattered at the fact that I couldn't see Tina Turn er in person. Then it happened, Mr. John Gibson, drama director at Thomas Jefferson High School, told me that I could take his place and usher for Tina Turner. Needless to say I jumped at the chance. At first it didn't sink in, then I ran to everyone and anyone telling them that I was going to see a legend. Much to my dismay many of my friends didn't feel the same way I did. "She's too old, she's more for the older crowd that knew her when she was first famous," said Tamara Wilson '87. "I like her songs and everything but she'd have to put on a pretty good show for me to pay SS0.00 to see her." Then I heard others who wanted to see her but couldn't. "I wish I could have gone, but I couldn't get tickets, Brandies was sold out in 3 hours," said Lisa Channey '87. "I don't care what a·nybody says I like her and she has a gorgeous saxaphonist." Then I started thinking, maybe my friends were right, I don't hear anyone singing along with me when we hear "Private Dancer." cf?oxann e ..£:Jnn ..£and on 118 Seniors When concert time rolled around I had seated a section that seemed to have 12,000 people in it. I seated all kinds of people young, old and of all races. I figured Tina had a following of just about all kinds of people. The opening performet was suppose to be John Parr, singer of St. Elmo's Fire, but he had to be at Farm Aid the next day, so he cancelled. Limited Edition took his place. I just kept seating people until 9 p.m. then it happened, Tina stepped out on stage. In a rage of glory like no other performer I've ever seen she took everyone's breath away including mine. At that moment I was very glad I had gone to the concert. Song after song was vibrant and full of endless amounts of energy. The audience was under this one woman's spell for over two hours. The moment that broke everyone's heart was when Tina sang "Private Dancer." In a white mini skirt with a feather boa she made people cry. Tina also took us back to the seventies with her well known rendition of "Proud Mary," never have I seen a performer of 47 act like a girl of 14. "My brother said it was the best concert he'd ever been to," said Sue Allmon '86, "wish I'd gone." When I was leaving the concert I felt very vibrant and excited. I had this tremendous amount of energy. When I got into my car I was trembling. It was as if a piece of Tina Turner's energy ~as .now a p~rt of me. Copy by Darrin Jackson , Seniors 119 120 Seniors Tonight is the moment we have all been waiting for. That old favorite locker is all cleaned up, all the graffiti has been wiped away, we have turned ~n all our books, and said goodbye to all our favorite teachers. We are also letting go of our friends, the people we have grown up with a-ttd been with since kindergarden, and that special friend who always had the shoulder to cry on and who you could tell your secrets to. We are now on our way to new places, faces and challenges. Each of us will set out on our own journeys to try to reach our goals. Near or far, the memories of these years will always remain. Those little things that stand out in our minds will keep us in touch with the people that we leave behind as we walk through these doors tonight. The future no longer seems sofar away, it is waiting for us right outside these doors. Now all we must do is take on the challenge that the future is bringing with it. We own all our fantasies, our dreams, our hopes and fears, all our triumphs and successes and all our failures and mistakes. We tried, succeeded, and finally made it to the big day. Do you remember the first day of high school? We got up an hour early, took our time getting ready so we would look just right and we couldn't wait to see how everybody had changed. We were all, I'm sure, a little nervou~ _ ang J~i_ghtened for we had d/nc•a .£ouc•e Q uandt finally made it to high school. I don't think then that we realized the last three years of our school life would go so fast. We sometimes rushed life and sometimes life rushed us. Sometimes it was taken day by day and sometimes we thought we would never survive through another school year. We have all changed in many ways. We have grown up little by little and faced things with maturity as we were expected to. We leave Thomas Jefferson tonight with tears of joy and sadness, but we will also leave with the knowledge and the ability that we can make this world a better place to live.

Try hitting as many places as you can without hitting the bottom of your wallet. If you're lucky, you might even run into a great sale where you can buy a superb looking outfit for practically nothing (no, I'm not lying, I've done it before.) And that's just one of the fun things about shopping. You don't even have to buy anything. Just going to see all the newest trends, meeting friends and checking out all the good looking guys or girls make shopping an ultimate way to pass a Saturday.

Burger King's post er of Herb did both disappearing acts and reappearing acts in various places around school inclu'ding the student lounge, study hall, and a basketball game. C rowded hallways were a problem and there was always someone who'd stop in the middle to talk to someone going the opposite direction. Even though school seemed Jike a big distraction in life, there were lots of little distractions that bothered everyone. · Jiow many times have you been interrupted by a bell that rang for what seemed like several minutes, but was actually only one? "They bug me. If they're not going to work right, I don't want to hear them," said Steve Schmieding '86. Some distractions were pretty tough to get away from such as bees flying around a classroom when you are trying to listen to your teacher. Many classes were interrupted when a girl let out a loud shriek because a bee was buzzing around her face. Maybe those bees thought they were welcome since our mascot was a Yellowjacket. "The bees didn't distract me. I found a great way to put them to use - book cover decorations," said Scott Gillispie '86. Out of the classroom, in the halls were the smoochers. Several couples were seen kissing passionately in the halls between classes. Since we had an elevator shaft with no elevator, the shaft became a favorite place for these smoochers. After all they were going to be apart for a whole fifty minutes. Weather was another big distraction for most people. It was hard to concentrate when the temperatures were almost as cold or hot inside as they were outside. Now the construction work and the freshman move couldn't be left off the list of distractions. Some may have thought there were squirrels in the building chasing each other around, but they were actually freshmen acting like freshmen. Students were soon accustomed to rush hour traffic in the hallway. "I don't like my homeroom in the new wing because it's so crowded going to first hour to the old wing," said Stacy Ring '88. Due to the construction of the new wings, several classrooms no longer had windows. "It feels like a cave. There's no circulation. If I had claustrophobia I don't know what I'd do," said Angie Brayman '86. Several students complained about their lockers not being near their homerooms. When someone asked where a new room was, t-hey were answered with: it's where the library used to be or where the counseling center was. It was a great way to direct somebody somewhere. There were some things in the student lounge that people didn't like such as the candy machines. Of course it was great being able to get something to eat whenever hunger struck, but there were downfalls. If one needed change for a dollar, a trip to the activity window was necessary. At least it was until the new candy machine arrived. It was the biggest attraction in the lounge. It carried a large variety of candy and took dollar bills. Students stood in line and arrived to class late just to get a box of Runts. Until it was fastened to the ground some student found it easier and amusing to tip it over or up side down and get free candy. Many wondered why gum was never put in the machines, but the reasons were obvious. Finally there were little distractions that annoyed everyone. Rude people in the halls, people doing anything to be a nuisance and long lists of things that bother everyo·ne. Of course this list of distractions as a distraction in itself could go on forever. By now many are probably tired of hearing about them, but if we didn't have these small problems, what would everyone complain about? Copy and pages by Laura Faust.

But it was the first day of school and the student lounge was filled with delirious and exuberant students waiting for the school day to start. Everyone looked differ ent since last May. Many wore shorts and simple shirts. Some wore jeans. Basically they all looked somewhat similar since many dressed for the sultry weather ... but not their hair. In fact, it probably was the hair that made people look so different and look so good. Left or right, hair was short: short on top, short on bottom, short on sides or short all over. Few had Mohawks and hardly anyone had long hair. Steve Wink '86 was one of the proud Mohawk owners. Steve had T J shaved on one side and 138, his wrestling weight, on the other side of his head. "It's cool and different," said Steve. "Different" was the look many looked for. Some cut their hair differently every month 'so as not to conform'. Ericka Kang '86, on the other hand, did not cut her hair for over six years. Her hair was a little over 4 feet long. "I'm going to get it cut after graduation," said Ericka. "It takes me about two handfuls of shampoo when washing, but I don't mind it." Crew cuts made a return from the l 960's and even the girls got into it a little by shaving the sides of their hair while back hair stayed full and moussed up. Different and unique hairstyles were obtained easier with help from gels, mousse, hair sprays and other 'tools'. "They help control your hair so that you can have styles that would not normally be possible," Kelly Kriefels '86 said. Joy Pierce '87 said, "I don't like the hair styles at Tee Jay. People are afraid to be bizarre. They follow others." Kelly said hair styles "depend upon the individual and a ll hairstyles look great if the style fits t heir personality." But there were other views. "I think you ought to have the natural look," said Chris Talcott '86. Whether Chris realized it or not, as the weather cooled, hair was getting longer and fuller for both girls and guys, and with it came more of a 'natural look.' After winter, when the weather started to warm up, shorter hair was once more welcomed. And the cycle will start all over again. 1Copy and pages by Banghye Kwon. , A sort of Punky-James Dean look was what satisfied Kent Clark's '86 taste.

Holidays were a special time and during each holiday season there was a certain change in atmosphere. Halloween brought the feeling of mystery and brought out the creative and wierd personalities from deep inside of some students. Lots of students visited haunted houses during Halloween. "Mystery Manor was the best haunted house I went to," Scott Gillispie '86 said. Although some high school students had outgrown these holidays, some still saw the magic in each holiday season. The days before Christmas vacation were counted down and many students exchanged gifts. 'The last day of school before Christmas vacation was great because hardly anyone was at school and we did whatever we wanted," Bud Petry '86 said. Christmas vacation came slowly and ended quickly. 'There was nothing to do but play basketball, stay home, and sleep," Jim Wright '89 said. '1 had a great time and I went to a lot of parties," Kathy Beaver '88 said. Durlng Christmas the atmosphere was cheery and Valentine's Day was like a circus full of balloons and flowers. Valentine's Day brought deliveries to Tee Jay. Flowers, balloons, and candy were a few of the gifts exchanged among friends and sweethearts. Love was in the air. Next came Easter bre.ak, otherwise know as spring break. Spring break was like summer in four days, the temperatures soared into the eighties and a high of eightyeight degrees was reached on Friday, March 28, and it continued to remain bright and sunny the rest of the weekend. When we returned to school on Tuesday, the weather dipped back down into the sixties. "Over Easter break I vacationed to my backyard and got a great tan in three days," Kim Jordan '87 said. Holidays were a time to celebrate. They were a much needed break from the everyday routine.

E.ating, talking, sleeping, and sometimes studying were some of the most common events that took place in the lounge. "During my study hall I make posters in the lounge to help support the cheerleading squad," Joy Pierce '87 said. Groups of friends small and large gathered to talk about the latest to the oldest news around school. "On Mondays I like to talk to everyone about what they did over the Weekend," Bud Petry '86 said. A sight that soon was a thing of the past was students relaxing in the lounge listening to radios and headphones. Second semester, headphones and radios were banned from school. "I find the student lounge a great place to pick up girls and listen to my tunes," Schadd Grey '86 said. Some study hall students with . honor passes ended up spending their extra time in the lounge, while others stayed in study hall. "It's easier to do my homework in study hall because in the student lounge I always end up sitting and talking to my friends," Melissa Higginbotham '87 said. Even though in the winter, the lounge is freezing, students still gathered to talk and have some good times. There were, of course, those unforgetable times like when Herb was stuck on the pop machine and when the new candy machine appeared. Herb was a promotional idea for Burger King originally but other Council Bluffs businesses used the slogans "Herb eats here", "Herb gets his hair cut here", etc. Burger King had a cardboard personna of Herb which somehow ended up on Tee Jay's. pop machine in the lounge. The new candy machine held 38 more candy bars than the old ones. Strange candies appeared in the candy machines like Zaps and Runts. Even though our pop machine carried Pepsi, new Coke made it's debut in the early summer of '85. With new Coke, old Coke became Classic.Coke. Also, there was new Cherry Coke and Diet Coke. Some Coke drinkers became confused and turned to Pepsi, the Choice of a New Generation. Copy and pages by Linda Brown Kathy Quick '86, Shawn Taylor '87, and Brent Ryba '87 study in the lounge.

Lunch & Student Lounge 139 HERE A long with the freshmen move came the teacher move. Not only were new teachers added to the staff but a large majority of these new teachers were those moved from the Junior Highs. So some of the freshmen and sophomores were now seeing some of the same teachers they had in Junior High. This seemed to help the transition, a familiar face really made a difference. And throughout the first semester the faculty seemed to be very happy, very together, almost completely different from second semester. They still got along well with each other but during second semester something called reduction in force happened. They called it the "riffing process." Approximately twelve teachers received letters . saying that they would not be returning to teach at Tee Jay or in the system in the fall of '86. This affected all of the teachers. And of course, some of the students, too. Especially those who were looking forward to taking a certain teacher's class later on. It's hard to describe how the teachers were feeling. They seemed sad. One teacher said that to be told that you lost your job was like experiencing a death in the family. But before the end of the year several of the riffed teachers had been recalled. They were happy that they would be returning in the fall, but it wasn't like their happiness at the beginning of the year. We could tell they were wondering if the same thing would happen again to them next year. It was strange. You had to be here to understand what it was like.

Photo by Darrin Jackson MA'l'VRI'l'Y A fter having different types of classes and teachers, high school students knew the ones they liked and the ones they disliked. Some were stictly followed by the books and homework, or they were full of class discussions and diffe rent projects that added a little different atmosphere. The way classes were run depended on the teacher and how he/she chose to run his/ her class. Barb Renkenberger Ed Rhode Fran Riggs Evelyn Rock Clair Rose John Rosenthal J . David Runyon Lori Schaefer Sharon Semler Joyce Schoeppner Kelly Scott Tammy Scott DE~ERMINES CLASS A~MOS PHERE "It makes it a lot more enjoyable and easier to understand if the teacher doesn't go strictly by the book," Zilla Floyd ':87 said. Students seemed to look for qualities in teachers that would help or hinder their ability to learn. "I look for a teacher who has a great sense of humor and works that into their lessons," Chris Moore '86 said. The way the teacher looks upon a student may also effect a student's ability or determination to learn. "I like a teacher that treats students like individuals," Michelle Baker '86 said. According to English teacher Angie Ankenbauer, the way students act effects the way a class runs. "The maturity of the students and what the teacher thinks the students can handle determine which activities the class should do ," Miss Ankenbauer said. From students' and teachers' reactions it seemed that a students likes or dislikes depended on what the student values in a teacher and the maturity of the class.

Students spend money, it's a fact. Parents spend money, that too, is a fact. Everyone knows money doesn't grow on trees. When we put money into the business community we like to see it come back somehow, somewhere, someday. Some of our local businesses have done this. They've given back a small portion of our money - to buy a yearbook ad. And indeed, the money was not used for frills - because there are none. We used formatt letters left over from previous years and only the amount of color that was built into our contract. Students and parents bought yearbooks - they spent less than what it's really worth. The businesses in this advertising section helped make this possible. How can we thank them? By remembering who they are when we need an oil change, a checking account, or an ice cream cone. Thumb through the ad pages - maybe there's something else you need. 148 Ad Division d Herb gets carried away y Card boar baske~ball game. _.I k similar to I l M'\ler '86 carries a backpac - - ·- t \ass Matt ' k pens etc. h the halls to their nex c .I losing papers, boo s_, , Students walk throug d ts to prevent them rom . d b many stu en . those carne y d d by both males were or ere Flowers . t ol occasions and females for a vane Y b. thdays to dances. from tr _ Englis h teache r Angela Ankenba uer demonstra tes the impo rtance of business equipment used in the classroom.

Many seniors had new and different experiences as they entered their final year of high sch~ol. Among one of the most annoying was junk mail. It started early in the summer and s eemed to never end. " Some of it was a lright as long as it was fr om a col l ege I wa s interested in," Senior Toni Bates s a i d . "I read what c oll e ge it was from and then d ecided i f I want ed to open it or not," Se n ior Noe l le Hansen said. Not o nly was there college junk mail, but also senior photography pamphlets. "I cho s e Ja ck Holder because my brother had his senior pictures taken there and I liked them," Senior Todd Crouse s a i d, "It was an easy decision." "I went to Canon Studio because my mom knew the phot ograph er ," Senior Miss y Joslin said . ACT tests, scholarships , and filling out forms were also a few tasks faced bY s e niors who p lan n ed to further their education . "It took a t l east t wo hours to fill out my ACT fo rm. Also I f i lled out about four s chol a rship f orms . They were fairl y easy to und e rstan d, but they took a lot of time ," said Sen ior Di ane Simpson.

Then a tough schedule dampened the rest of the season. We dominated the muddy, rainy Abraham Lincoln game with 273 total yards rushing, but we failed to score. In the second overtime A.L. scored a touchdown to win 7-0. Our Metro Conference leaders were Seniors Chris Hatcher, Tim Moen, Mike Elder, Steve Barnes, and Dan Weatherill. "When we learned that Ke vin Waugh could not play this year, we really felt bad for Kevin and it still really bothers me," said Head Coach Nick McGr ain . Waugh was the team's only crutial injury. His injury occurred two days before the St. Albert game. He was in the hospital with two blood clots in his leg. "It was a fun year," Sophomore Shane Jacobsen said. "We played against a lot of good teams, but as a team we didn't do that bad." Coach McGrain said that in the last three games of the season the team showed a l ot of class by not giving up and playing hard against tough Metro powers Creighton Prep, Burke and Central.

"I'm looking forward to being a senior , " said Junior Traci Butterfield . Junior Jim Geisler said , "I 'rn exc ited to be a big shot next year . " Juniors had a biq part in planninq Prom and Snoball . And many juniors were old enough to drive and qet a job . Some were looking forward to being a part of DECA or T&I next year . This would mean a short morning or short day for some . "I look forward to next year becaus e I'll get out early," said Junior Rob in Poast . As juniors we were able to plan o n college to further our education. We also took ITEDs (Iowa Tests of Educational Development) to rate our school in comparison to other schools. But the best part being a junior, was beinq able to look forward to being a senior. And in that case , being a junior really wa s worth it.

Photo b y Tae Kwon She walks onto the court in a gym fi lled with hundreds of people. Her hands tremble with fear, and her legs be come weak, as she feels every eye is on her . When the music comes alive she takes a deep breath, begins to dance, and all f ear is left behind. The first performance for the cheerl eaders and Porn Pon girls was always a memorable experience~ like any activity you participate in for the first time. Tryouts were another nerve jerker, when a few minutes seemed like hours, until the names were announced. "I tried out because I like to dance and perform in front of a crowd," said Porn Pon member Senior Jamie DeLawter. "To try out we had to make up a dance, learn a dance that was taught to us , and answer some questions along with a short essay," cheerleader Junior Susan St erling said. "We also learned kicks, and one of them was shown to us ten mi n utes before tryouts." Porn Pon captains Kristyn Moore and Noe l le Hansen, both seniors, said, "We l i k e to dance, and at the same time, st ill show school spirit." As they look back at their first performance both girls said that they fe lt 'excited' and 'scared to death'. "I was scared at first but after a f ew football games I felt better because the older cheerleaders really helped us f e e l more comfortable," said Freshman Ni k ki Wolff. She started cheering at age s even for her dad's football team. "I want to keep cheerleading all through high school," Wolff said. "And if I don't make it, I'll try out the nex t year." "A lot of cheers they learn at camp, or I have a book of cheers and they make the actions," said cheerleading sponsor Marilyn Nielsen. One of the advantages of being on the squad was meeting a lot of new people. "My senior year on the squad was fun, I liked going to the camps and learning new dances," said Porn Ponner Senior Lashawn Ross. "But most of all, I' 11 miss t he new people I've met and the good f ri ends I've made . One thing I won ' t miss is early morning practices!" Porn Pon sponsor Don Hansen said, "This ye ar ' s squad has been one of the best I 've been associated with. We've h ad a f e w problems but we've always seemed t o work them out . " Both c a p tains, Moore and Hansen sa~d that t h ey we r e looking forward to coming back and watching the future squad s . ~'"=' Ke r r ie Saar and Kathy Bied erstadt DECA members, top of stairs: Lisa Giles, Staci Goldsberry, Delores Black, and Rena Harold.

It cane on August 6 , 1945 It's a wonder any of us are still alive The "pikadon", flash -lxx:m, scare Has left us all shattered, burned, without hair. So many were killed on that horrible day Innocent lives ended, what a price to pay ! What was this new weap::m that the U.S. had used That left so many dead, burned and abused? Why did they use it? It did horrible things The Angel of Death descended down on its wings. So many friends, families, - all gone ... de ad, Or dying slowly, going out of their heads. It's hard to have hor::e in such tirres of despair. O.rr soldiers take our supplies - what do they care That their own are sufferir.g, are worse off than they· We need them more - no matter what they say. Oh , such destruction, a horrible rress Will they attack again? We can only guess, A J::x:xnb of such force - why did they use it? Did they know how much pain it would cause when it hit? The barb cane so sudden - no tirre to prepare They didn ' t tell us anything, they wouldn ' t dare. Such sorrow and mourning and oh, so much pain. They killed hurrlreds thousands, but wh at a d i d they gain? Oh , how I wish t hey never carre How will things ever again be the sarre? N:JVJ they tell us "radiation", a horrible disease Sareone care help us, save us, p l ease? Except ones made of cerrent, the buildings are go ne The crops are covered, so are the l awns By as hes of thick dust, east to west This new secret weapo n, was it only a t est? A horrible thing for a country to do! Didn ' t they know we were here? We 're r;:eople t oo! Will we ever overcare this? Is there a chance that ~ Can start over again? It would be a miracle to see. " If the war had kept going, more would have died" But how do we know that just isn't a lie Those st upid Ame r i cans! How dare they? But one day . . . th ey' ll pay! They may have won - but look at us na.v Was it really worth it? - I wonder how! So many have died, and so many will "Why? Ha.v could the y?" I wonder still.

I t was my first visit to Glenwood in two ye ars. At first I was a little sc ared b e ing with people I thought were diff e rent because they didn't act like us. As I got to know the residents be t t er, they were just like any other p e r son. They were excited when they found out T e e Jay students were coming to visit them. Many of the them were already wa iting for us at tables so we could sit down to have lunch together. The person I met, her name was Linda, s he showed me what her job consisted of. While I helped her with her job, I t hought my legs were going to give out on me . We walked up and down hills del i ve ring mail from building to building for an hour and a half. "If you walk a lot, like me, you will l ose w e ight like me," Linda kept telling me . Finally the job was over. I seriously thought I lost some pounds. Many of the residents lived in nice ) a rge houses, but there were usually 15 or 16 p e ople living in a house. Linda t o l d me that she had just been moved into one of the houses. Before she sta y e d in a building with wall to wall resid e n ts. ~I tA I Tee Jay s tudents want e d to spend mo re ti me a t Gl e nwood, but we had t o ge t ba c k to schoo l.

Everything in the United States is bigger than i n France, such as cars, trucks, malls, schools, and office buildings. The big difference for me, I can speak of, is t h e school. There are many differences; the school building, the rules, sports, and students driving cars to school. The school is different in structu r e and is much newer than mine. My school in France h as only one floor and we don't have murals or statue s , but we have white walls! I can compare my school in France to a prison because we have a fence around it with spikes at the top. We go to school from 8 a.m. and cannot leave until 5 p.m. However, it is not all bad. We have one thing better than here. At my school in France, we stop class at 12 p.m. and resume class at 2 p.m. We c a n eat our lunch slow and digest it, eat it fast a nd flirt with the girls, or sleep on a bench. Two d a y s a week, we can watch T.V. in a T.V. room for o ne hour during lunch. We have another thin0 better than here. It i s that we don't have school on Wednesday and we h ave no school on either Monday and Thursday afternoon s or Tuesday and Friday afternoons. For the equipment in the school, you benefit f o r having computers, videos, and many films. In general, sports activities are much be tter here than in France. For example, we don't have competition between schools very often. Maybe t wo or three times a year. Soccer is a major sport i n France. We call it football. We do play rugby which is simular to football in the United States. We p l ay hockey and handball . We don't play baseball, American football, wrestling, or weightlifti n g . In tennis, we play on clay or a green-set court . As for the citie s, they are v e ry differ e n t too . Yours are very modern. In France, the cities are much older. One cause for this is I beli eve , in France, we want to preserve our culture. America is a new countr y, you want to h ave new things; to have t he b e st . We d on't have many fast food restaurants , b ut we h ave ma n y r e stauran ts that are family sty le . The clothes are v ery d ifferent too . Here you wear many jeans, but in France , we wear ma n y j o gging p a nts . The f ood is v ery di f ferent, for exampl e , we don't h av e pea n utbu t t e r and Sl ice ... but we h ave snails, frog l egs , French breads, and croissants.

Many freshmen felt that they were being picked on as they started their first year of high school. "People think they can push you aro und because you're a freshman," said Freshman Vince Belt. But there were a f ew advantages to being a freshman. "The fact that the upperclassmen could show you around," said Freshman Traci Torgerson. Freshman Theresa Harmon said that one advantage was to be able to go out to lunch and not be stuck down in the cafeteria, Zike in junior high. Others said that meeting new people was an advantage. Freshman Chad Fennell said that h e had an advantage over the freshmen who were coming next fall, he won't be a freshman next year. So, if you are a freshman.

The reputation is one that the community has labeled as a poor one. People say that the students are trouble makers and burdens to all. The students know the real image of the school. The school has some of the best teachers, education and most important students. If it was such a bad place there would be bars on the windows, security cameras in the classrooms, medal detectors at all entrances and squads of security guards posted in all the halls. Students can talk to their teachers if they have problems with out worrying that their problem will be the school's problem. The school's image has been changing over the years for the better . If every student just thought of one sentence. Tee Jay a good place to be, they would be faced with the image is yours. • Water gushed down the second floor walls from the third floor pipes that suddenly burst sending gallons of steaming water down upon the second floor ruining floors, walls and computers.

Summer was used t change the schools image from the inside. The painters washed out there brushe and rollers and walked away with the satisfaction of knowing they turned a eye full o scratches, ink spots and tape globs into a school full of colors for all to see. Summer was not all rest and relaxatio for most students. Students gave up fun i the sun for the chance to work and earn little spending money. Students work hours ranged from a hour a week to 50 hours a week. Student that started as part-time ended up as full time help over the summer. Who could haveimagined all of this bein accomplished in one summer. • 'It's Outta Here' By Amy Huseth ights flashing by, horns blasting, radio blaring, and meeting new people were all typical activities of a night of cruising. At least that was until the new cruising law was passed, forbidding cars to travel in the same direction three times down Broadway f:r.om 8 p.m. to 5 a.m. Police cars can be seen at all corners on Broadway on a typical Friday or Saturday night. According to signs posted along Broadway, the maximum penalty for cruising is a $100 fine, or 30 days in jail. According to The Daily Nonpareil, the ban on cruising was needed because of traffic problems on the weekends. The problem worsened when Omaha banned cruising on Dodge Street, and Nebraskans started "cruising" across the river to Broadway. Freshmen Bambi Griffis and Randi Brown agree that taking away cruising was a bad idea. "People have nothing to do in this town because the city takes everything away from us," said Brown. "I don't think they should 've taken cruising from us because it gave us something to do besides party," said Griffis. Yet some students feel the cruising ban hasn't stopped cruising on Broadway. Juniors Misty Lewis and Carrrie Nelson think the ban is a waste. "I think they should just give up trying to ban it," Lewis said. Even though students had enjoyed cruising when there was nothing else to do, it looks like they will have to put it in park. Fans expressed their feelings towards the strike. The baseball strike left many fans with a void in their summer activities. The strike prohibited a World Series from being played. Photo by R & M r Photos. By John Minshall oing, going, gone ... baseball's signature call was easily adapted from the homerun to the end of the season last year. The Major League Baseball Players Association went on strike Aug. 12, 35 days later the news was widespread of the first cancellation of the World Series in 90 years. The loss of the postseason was perhaps the most significant loss felt widespread throughout the strike. The loss of the post-season wasn'tthe only loss, another loss which was largely felt was the end to many great seasons. Matt Williams was on pace to break the all-time single season homerun record. Greg Maddox was yet another player who was on brink of making history. The Yankees were on their way to having a legit shot at the World Series. Financially the biggestloss was felt by the owners however,· Bobby Bonilla lost the most of any player. "I think the players and owners should worry more about the fans, who support baseball year in and year out," said senior Brent Wallace. "On the outside looking in the fans lost some faith in our national pastime," said senior Matt Whitney. Cruising ban World Cup takes takes effect p.s. by storm Racing against death in Rwanda 0 .J.

They ha d a w orking vacation. The concert band was chosen to represent the state oflowa for the World War II 50th anniversary concertin WashingtonD.C. Their adventure started with a 24-hourbustrip. The band members saw a lot of historical sights on the way. " The sight seeing was interesting and a good learning experience," said grad u a te Wendy Kritenbrink. According to Dave Clark, band director, he and the parents of the band members were proud of the performances, By Amada Walters especially the Pentagon where over 1000 people heard the band. The Washington Memorial and the Jefferson Memorial were two other good performances added Mr. Clark. "You haven't lived until you've performed in 15 pounds of wool when the temperature is 98 degrees" said Mr. Clark. "The food wasn't cheap, but it was pretty nice that our breakfast and dinners were paid for," said junior Dave McDaniel. On the way back everyone was so tired that they hardly could stand up. By the end of the trip everyone was homesick but still didn't want to go home" said McDaniel. "There's too much to see in a week. I would like to go back again some time and see the rest of it," said sophomore Lindsey Konecny. "It was a week away from parents and with your friends, and it is something I would definitely do again" said sophomore Jamie Phillips. "I would definitely do it again but not for a couple of years. Raising $36,000 and riding a bus for 45 hours is not something one wants to do annually," said Mr. Clark. I'll remember this trip for the rest of my life. sop hmore Lindse y Konecny.

By Kari Foster and Martina Bell Cheerleaders and Porn Pon girls didn't go to camp. Instead camp came to them. Cheerleading camp was held on Aug. 9-11 in the New Fieldhouse from 8 a.m.-5 p .m. U .C.A. (Universal Cheerleading Association) sponsored the camp. "I felt we got a lot more individual attention, but I missed going away for a week and getting a tan," said junior Kristi Fuhs. During the camp cheerleaders were eligible to try out for All- Star Cheerleading. Seniors Jodi Martin and Danielle Herron and freshman Andrea Mueller made AllStars. Herron and Martin marched in a parade in London on New Years Eve. Mueller marched in a parade in Texas. Porn Pon girls also had summer camp in the New Fieldhouse. It was held from July 25-29 from 8:30 a . m . to 4 p.m. Cheer Unlimited was the name of their camp. "I missed going a w ay, but we learned a lot and it was p r e tty fun ," said senior Jaime Anderson. "We would have had more fun if we would have went to camp than staying home," said s ophomore Cori Zarek.

This past summer was a joy for most students. They attended many different places. Whether it was right here in Council Bluffs, or all the way to Europe many sights were seen. "Most of the students who went to Europe enjoyed it," said junior Mindy Englehart. "Europe is very unique, opposed to the United States. There was no drinking age, beautiful beaches and museums to go see," said senior Lea Ballenger. "I had a great time para-sailing, snorkeling, swimming and using my beach bum skills," while in Maui said teacher Lavonne Pierson. Sophomore Colleen Stanford said, "I went to the Gateway arch in St. Louis for my summer vacation." Others spent their summers working. There were many unusual summer jobs such as working at Rosenblatt and detaseling corn. Senior Hailie Jensen said, "I like my seasonal job as an usher at Rosenblatt Stadium. Everyone frets at the word J.O.B. but, my job spells MEN." Freshman Angela Estess detassled corn. "I really loved the job because, I never saw the same faces twice, and since it is seasonal, as soon as I started to get sick of my job it's over." Summer jobs and vacation took up most of the students break and before they knew it they were heading back for a new year. After a plane delay in D.C., the French class takes time to relax.

We stayed focused and took it one game at a time.- senior Jenny Black • ~ Sophomore Laurie White winds up to throw another strike in her first varsity appearance at C.B. Stadium. Photo by Wes Belt . The softball team started off the year with a new coach and new ideas. "The players did not start off the season witha positive attitude on how the season was going to progress," said senior Jenny Black. "The coach had good views and goals, but the players did not always agree," said senior Debi Midkiff. When the team finally got used to the new coach, the By Devin Schoening and Jenny Black seasons tarted rolling along. The J ackettes took fifth place at the Missouri Valley Invitational, and the Shelby Invitational, they also placed first at the Sioux City East Invitational. "Going into the tournament we did not expect to win since we were playing against rated teams. We stayed focused and took it one game at a time," said Black. "Taking first was really a high point of our season," said senior Marti Hensley. Coach Colin Smith said, "Winning the Sioux City tournament showed what this team could do when they played up to there potential. This team could play with anybody." There was a new face behind the plate this year for the Jackettes. After being a three year starter at catcher, Black switched to first base after a knee injury and junior Brandi Lambrecht took over. "It was scary for the first few games being a Varsity catcher, but after I warmed up, I was ready to settle into my new position," said Lambrecht. After the season was over, everyone was invited to Coach Smith's for a banquet and to take a team photo.

This was shown by the fact that the team was ranked in the top ten all through the season. "Prior to the start of the season we were doubtful about the outcome. The season went pretty well, better than a lot of people expected," said senior Devin Shoening. Junior Kevin Johnson said, "I think the season went good for losing a lot of the starters from last year's team. Our record showed we did well this year and it surprised a lot of people this season!" Senior John Minshall said, "Regardless of how the season ended, our accomplishments showed our desire to win." Coach Lee Toole said, "This season was pretty remarkable considering we had a new group." Mr. Toole added, "We lost eight starters from the State Cha1npionship team, nobody really gave us a chance."

A comic book and a model relating to the story "A Seperate Peace" were his choices. Photo by Charity Gittins . New Projects Minds Opening to Creativity by Charity Gittins Drawings, original songs, dioramas, and comic books are all forms of evaluating student's knowledge. Instead of taking a written test over the story "A Separate Peace" students were given the option to design various projects based on the story in Charlotte Emmanual's honors English class. "I liked the new idea of doing projects. This allows us to use our creativity more," said sophomore Jessie Young. Sophomore Brian Muldrew chose to write an original song to the tune of "The Beverely Hillbillies". "I liked to use my music skills to produce my project. Being in Jefferson Edi ti on helped me and gave me inspiration to produce this," he said. Making "A Separate Peace" more contemporary sophomore Eric Hillerson produced a comic book and model. "I thought that using the comic book format was a very creative idea. I knew that more students would relate to it," he said. A diorama was a very popular choice for many students. This is where students take a scene from the book and make it into a three-dimensional picture. One even had clothes pin soccer players for the prep school that one character attended. This specific diorama was crea ted by sophomore Jessi McDermott. "I really like to use various ways to relate projects," she commented. "I liked the projects more because in most classes we spend too much time on wha t seems to be insignificant to the story. We were able to use ou r own knowled ge to create the projects from what we learned from the story," commented sophomore Cori Zarek.

Three Days To Life Punishment Problems By Jodie Gress Three out of four people said that today's generation of parents are very lenient when it comes to grounding. Whether it's from staying out to late, or even being brought home by the police, some parents are more lenient than others. Students remembered when they were punished from their childhood rather than later in life. Junior Tammy Rhodes said, "When I was in the fourth grade my sister was riding her bike down the driveway and I stuck a broomstick in the spokes of her tire and she flipped . "I was supposed to be grounded for a month, but it ended up lasting only a few hours," she added. Some punishments don't take as much effort to get a result. "I was spanked for spilling water wen I was ten," said junior Melissa Shelton. Later in life problems increased . Staying out to late resulted in social lives being virtually nonexistent. Sophomore Melissa Moffett said, "I was out past curfew and brought home by the cops, and I didn't even get grounded ." Another parent took punishment very seriously, "I stayed out un til 3 a.m. and I told my mom that I would be home after work. I got off about 10 p.m. I was grounded for a month during summer vacation, and was told that since I had no job, I'd have no contact with my friends what so ever," said junior Faith Martenson Freshman Danielle Eggett anxiously awaits to see why she was called down to the attendance office, sometime the wait is worse than the punishment.

And the memory still remains By Martina Bell The first kiss, usually the most memorable of all but not always the best kiss. You stand there awkwardly looking at each other then your lips meet. You're thinking, should I breath through my nose or hold my breath? For senior Jaimie Paladino, her first kiss was great. "I was at a kissing party and we were playing seven minutes in heaven. He was really cute! He was a good, but sloppy kisser and even now I still dream about him." Although some first kisses went well, for others it was a disaster. Sophomore Chyanne Hagan said," My first kiss was definitely a disaster. First the boy fell right in the middle of the kiss. When he fell he bit my lip. It was so embarrassing, especially when my lip swelled up a lot too!" Though some people can't remember their first kiss they can remember their best kiss. Sophomore Brandy Von Fumetti said," I was over at his house and it just happened, it was like fireworks going off. It was my favorite kiss." Sophomore Donald Schnepp said, "We were sitting on a bed. It was part of a dare and it was pretty cool, I guess." So hopefully everybody has some kind of special memory of eHher their first kiss or their best kiss.

Many students prefer the traditional fast food to even home cooking. "Pizza is my favorite. I especially like pepperoni. I eat the pepperoni first, then the cheese, the sauce and finally the crust," said senior Debi Midkiff. "I'd take pizza over anything my mom cooks any day," she added. Tacos also rated high in the menu of students. "I like tacos, but after my mom got food poisoning at a taco restaurant I slowed down on eating there," said senior Farrah Erickson. There are those that prefer their vegetables. "I don't like meat, therefore I prefer potatoes. I'll eat them in any form they come, baked or french fried. Besides, they really are good for you," said senior Terri Sinnott. Some students preferred to skip the main course and go directly to the sweets. "I love twinkies. If I have a chance I can eat a whole box of them in just a few hours," said sophomore Jason McClelland. Others think there's more to food, then pizza and fast foods. Health teacher Lavonne Pierson said," Students eat quite poorly, they should eat a balanced diet, low sodium, and low sugar. They should eat healthy at least 80% of the time and 20% they can go a little crazy. " Senior Lisa Wu said , "I'm very careful at what I eat and how inuch I eat." Even though students should eat nutritiously, they thrive on ·fast food.

Some students even wonder why they even get homework. Some students often wonder if other students ever do their homework. freshman Jamie Fritz said, "I have homework almost every night." Fritz spends at least an hour every night on her homework. On an average a student did their homework for about five minutes to an hour every night.sophomore Jami Adams said, "Sometimes I just stare at it, it's to confusing to do, or to try to understand." Some students tried to get their homework done at the last minute. Students hurry to school and copy their friends homework. Senior Joleen Johnson said, "I don't want to get the person mad at me, it depends on who it is, if it's a friend I will let them copy, but if it's not a friend I won't." "I let people look off me cause they will fail if they look off my paper, so it doesn't really matter." Adams added. "I believe homework is a punishment for all students because teachers do not like them," said senior Eric Lambrecht. "Homework is the work of the devil," said junior Bradley Harbold. Fritz just summed it all up by saying, "I have better things to do instead of homework."

Weekends Some Have Fun; Others Work by Shawn Wilber Weekends are the time students are supposed to be able to sit back and relax and not worry about school for two-whole daysbut HELLO!, this isn't reality. Most students spend their time working or going out with their friends. Senior Chris Burroughs said, "I spend my time with my friends or I spend my time working." Most students would rather not work but instead they'd rather be at parties with their friends. Senior Donna Jackson said, "I have to work because I spend my money on my boyfriend, but most of my time is spent partying with my friends." Junior K.C. Dewaele said, "I spend my weekends partying. During the summer I like to cruise Broadway. If I'm not doing that then I usually play pool but during the winter time I like to go sledding." Sophomore Crystal Carlson said, "I usually spend my weekends with my friends shopping at the mall or I help my parents clean house." Then on the other hand there are some of us who are called Work-A-Holies. Senior Wendi Savage said, "As soon as I get out of school everyday at 11 :55 p.m. I go to work at Bluffs UP Credit Union. Then on the weekends I work at Convenient Food Mart. What ever time I have left over, even though I don't have much time, I do find time to spend with my boyfriend Shawne Rothmeyer."

Photo by Brad Harbold. Theresa Zalesak DonZdan Ryan Zimmerman Policy Changes Saturday School Replaces I.S.S. by Lisa Dukich Among the changes, the new attendance policy and no I.S.S. (in school suspension) are the biggest issues concerning students. The purpose of the new policy is for students to attend classes on a regular basis. The new a ttendance policy allowed a student to miss up to nine days a semester. On the 10 day, a letter was sent home and they had to file for an appeal to stay in the class and get the credit. "Certainly credit failure is a possibility, but not necessarily, an absolu te reality in every case," commented Assistant Principal Cyle Forney. Some students found themselves in this situation. Senior Angie Jensen inissed 10 days because she had doctor appointments and the birth of her son. "I was w orried because I needed the credit to graduate," said Jensen . Her appeal was granted. "I think this a ttendance policy made students go to class because they wanted to finish school," said junior Andrea Grosse. I.S.S. was no longer an option, so more students got Saturday School, which consisted of three hours in the study hall room. "Satu rday School was boring, you had to bring something to do and they d idn't let you sleep," said junior Kelly Carpenter. Those changes were an improvement according to the administration.

The voice on the intercom says there are difficulties, but then the airplane is taking a nose-dive for the land below. That is how passengers on flight 427 felt when it crashed in Pittsburgh on Sept. 8, killing 127 people including five crew members. Yet despite the many recent plane crashes, many students were not afraid to fly. Senior Tesa Powers felt flying was safer than driving. "I've flown before and I felt safe," Powers said. "After about 400 million car wrecks people should not fear planes. Not many pilots drink and fly," Powers added. Senior A.J. Brodahl also felt flying was safe. "I've flown over 15 times and am flying to Australia for football," Brodahl said. "The statistics show that it is still safer to fly than to drive," Brodahl added. Powers remembered a scary experience she had when flying to Europe. "We were flying along and the pilot came on the speaker and said, 'Ignore those bumps, we've been having engine problems all day," said Powers. Junior Ramanda McDaniel felt planes didn't get enough inspections. There needs to be more checks to make sure p lanes are running O .K., " McDaniel said . ·While some feel flying is a safe and quick way to travel, others say it's for the birds.

Photo by Charity Gittins. By Martina Bell F ive days prior to Homecoming festivities occurring, it was still questionable if there would actually be the annual carnival. Student Council still needed volunteers for booths. The Student Council ended up having to lower the prices of booths because the clubs waited too long. "I don't think we made as much as we should of because they dropped the admission fee from $25 to nothing and the only money was from our own booth," said junior, council member Kristy Miller. The carnival took on a different format. It was held the last three hours of the day and everyone was dismissed to attend. Junior Kristi Fuhs said, "It drug on because you were required to be there not because you wanted to be there." The students were confined to the gymnasium, courtyard and cafeteria. The sumo wrestling game seemed to be the most popular. "At first it was embarrassing, but then I got used to it. The second time was a blast," said freshmen Jill Hendrix. Overall, just about everybody was happy with the carnival. Sophomore Jackie Gardner said, "It was O.K, and it was a lot better than last year's carnival. I thought the new game, sumo wrestling game, was the funniest, at least to watch." "This just goes to show that we could create a 'fun raiser' when everybody got involved," said Student Council president Debi Midkiff.

People wore their Tee Jay clothing to show they had spirit in their school. Thursday was Cowboy day. Senior Eric Lambrecht said, "I dress like a cowboy all the time it just gave me an excuse to wear my hat." Friday was an all time favorite, it was Hat day. Students were happy to be able to wear their hats. Senior Andy Gallet said, "It's cool. I don't think we should have to take them off. If we want to wear a hat we should be able to." Friday night was the big game against Northwest. Before the game there was a parade that went from Tee Jay to the Council Bluffs Stadium.

Senior, Nick Ochoa, said, "Pep assemblies were better because they allowed more freedom and were longer too." Besides having pep assemblies students enjoyed the cheerleaders and the Porn Pon Squad . Ochoa said, "I always enjoy watching the Porn Pon Squad perform, but I'd like to have seen more crazy activities and little stupid games done to make the assemblies more interesting. It would also have gotten more people pumped up." Senior, Sonny Henry, said, "The reason I liked pep assemblies was it got me out of class." "I'd like to have seen more activities to promote and give our school a good reputation instead of having a bad reputation and being called "river rats," said Greg Strum, senior. At one of the assemblies junior Ben Reid got up in front of the student body and sang the "Humpty Dance". This was one thing that not to many students did on their own. Senior Chris Burroughs said, "The reason I liked the assemblies because they were funny sometimes and it made me laugh and then I usaully had a good feeling after the assembly."

The team also went to Memorial Stadium. Freshman John Phillips said, "One of the funniest things was running on the field. One other neat thing was seeing a football player working out," said Phillips. I By Alisha Miller "The students gave a good impression to everyone they met. Everyone from the bus drivers, to the museum to the Memorial Stadium workers were impressed with the students behavior and their eagerness to learn,'' said science teacher, Brooks Schild. They went to DeSoto Bend on Nov. 22. For history class they learned about the Bertrand steamboat and other facts about the late 1800's. They also studied the wildlife. The Sting team made a Homecoming float for the parade to Wilson for the big game against Northwest. The float took the team two weeks to make. The block bought all their own supplies with the money raised from the fund-raisers. Freshman Jenni Conn said, "It was fun having everyone working together. It was sad knowing that no other teams did anything like we did. It seems that everyone got to know each other and work together, it was pretty cool knowing that we can work together.''

Everyone said that the pep band brought the excitement in the games." I like Pep band the most because it's the time when we can goof off without getting into too much trouble," said sophomore Jamie Lobendo. The band had various themes for different games. Some days were hat days and some were your favorite sports team night. The pep band performed in assembles, home football games and basketball games. The band kept busy through out the season.

To start the season off they had a band camp during the summer, that's where they learned all their fundamentals on how to march and the correct way to make the band to be better than they had ever looked before . "When school started we went from marching in the hot weather to marching in the cold," said sophomore Jamie Phillips. "The extra practices that we had on Tuesday nights helped out our performing a lot," said junior Jana Hilton. The band practiced on every Tuesday night to improve their field By An1ada Walters marching. A lot of parents said that they could tell that the band put more effort in to their practicing this year. The first performance they performed in was in the home football games. "Homecoming was a blast. I loved marching in the parades," said Hilton. The band performed in several contests, but their best one was at Glenwood were they scored almost a one, they where a 1I4 of a point from a one. "Our last performance was the best at our home football game where we did our senior salute," said senior Amy Cody. "Our last performance was the best, I enjoyed watching the seniors," said Cody. Some of the band members had a few words to say about the season over all. "Everyone in band needs to be much more dedicated and be a lot more responsible than what they were," said sophomore Dylan Peck. "Over all we performed very well but at times I feel that we could have done a lot better than we did. But besides that I feel that we did a good job all together," said Hilton. Over-all, the band had a successful season. They played at assemblies and at all types of sporting events.

A new beginning, a new age, a new staff. Making deadlines, writing stories and keeping all others busy were just some of the things the journalism staff did. The yearbooks theme was "The Image Is Yours." Those inspiring words were said by senior editor Eric Lambrecht. Lambrecht was not just the theme maker but also the yearbook's editor. Journalism class is not just about writing a lot of stories, there's also the magic of artists and photographers. " Kills them, kills them all," were words heard one too many times by artist and photographer Brad Harbold while he was under pressure. "Journalisms taffers were tolerable but the deadlines were not," said Journalism adviser Deb Goodman. Sophomore J.D. Bogatz commented on the year by saying, "We could have d011e a lot better on our deadlines, but I was happy with the finished product. I know how much hard work and long hours were spent working on it and I was proud to say that I was part of it." "The senior editors always helped out the new comers to the journalism department by making sure that they understood all of the computer technology. Taking journalism now in high school will help you out if you're planning to take journalism classes in college," said Mrs. Goodman. 'The Signal' won the Sweepstakes Award for the best overall newspaper at Midland Collage. "I was really happy to see thatthehoursofhard work had finally paid off for the best. I hope that future staffs will carry on the tradition," commented Mrs. Goodman.

Many hours were spent preparing for this play. Senior Gina Lobendo (Helsa Wenzel) said, "I spent a lot of time trying to learn my characters German accent, walk and gestures." Sophomore Dylan Peck (Roger Hopewell) said, "It took me a month to learn my lines. It was tiring, but a lot of fun." The production of the By Terri Sinnott play had a minor set back to deal with. The lights used for the performances had to be rented because the lighting board was condemned. "It would have cost us over $4000 to replace the board," said John Gibson, director. The stagecraft class spent hours on the elaborate stage. Sophomore Elizabeth Hurt said,"It was a lot of fun building the set and getting dirty.

"Mr. Bond made us practice day in and day out on defensive drills," said jun10 r Courtenay Higginbotham. "He always told us that without defense we can't run the offense, she added." "The key to a successful team is a good defense where the ball never hits the floor," said Coach Mike Bond. The varsity team also practiced team unity by dressing up on the days of away games and by wearing defense t-shirts on the days of home games. "At the beginning of the season we got together at Debi Midkiff's house to eat hot dogs and make our tape of music for the home games," said sen10r Mandy Milner. In order for any team to win you need a strong crowd behind you. The varsity team tried something new to pull in more spectators. After the traditional warm up, the varsity team threw mini-volleyballs out to the crowd. "We all signed one and put our own silly phrase on it," said Higginbotham. "Everyone knew who they were throwing them to before they even did it," she said. "I think this gave the girls' something to look forward to and get pumped u p about," said Coach Bond.

After hitting the snooze button for the third time, you say I can't possibly make it to school. You pick up your recently published copy of excuses, you made at the beginning of the year and thumb quickly through until you find something about pets and then you say, yes they haven't heard this one before. According to Joy Crouse secretary, "You wouldn't believe some of the excuses some of the parents use for their kid." These are a few she has heard before. "My daughter is going to be late because the lights went out and she couldn't see to get ready." "My son won't be able to make it to school because our dog is sick and he has to stay home with him." Students have came up with some creative excuses themselves, here are a few. "I couldn't make it to school today because my heater went out in the car and I couldn't see to drive," said senior Cheryl Merryman. "My door froze so I couldn't get out of my house," said sophomore Kevin Gibbons. "I told the secretary over the phone that I had the chicken pocks while putting red dots all over my face," said Gibbons. "I didn't have a notebook because it caught on fire," said sophomore Sarah Johnston. As you can see Mrs. Crouse has heard everything.

Senior David Fick did just the opposite. He actually stuck around to help his girlfriend out and help raise their baby. Fick said, "I was scared when I first found out my girlfriend was pregnant. After I thought about how good we got along, I was happy it was with her instead of someone else." Fick said, "Being a father isn't what I expected. I had never changed a diaper or fed a baby. I had never even held a baby until mine was born." Fick said, "I feel my role as a teen father is to stay in school, get my degree and set a good example for my daughter Kaycee. I also feel more responsible now about finding a job that is good enough and gives me enough money to support Kaycee. I want to be able to put money aside so she never has to worry about not getting what she needs and so she can go to college and get a good education." Some fathers wouldn't even attempt to spend time alone with their children especially when they are little babies. Fick takes time out of a very busy schedule to spend time alone with his daughter. He said, "I really enjoy the time we get to spend together, it gives me the chance to bond with her like fathers should bond with their children. There are times I don't know what to do when she is screaming her head off, bu t I eventually figure out what she needs." Senior David Fick enjoys playing with his daughter Kaycee.

Sometimes looking back on your embarrassing experience can be a little embarrassing-too! Freshman Julia Larison said, "I was trying on some clothes in a store. I was putting on a pair of shorts in the dressing room and the lady that worked there unlocked the door when I had the shorts around my ankles. To top it all off, she had two ladies with her. They just stood there with their mouths open. She didn't even close the door!" Teacher Shannon CdeBaca said, " Once I gave a big bear hug to a stranger in an airport thinking it was my brother home from the army!" Teacher John McKinley said," Mr. Meade and I work together. We had gone to the lumber yard to get wood. He was riding in the back of my pick-up. Itook offtoo fastand the lumber and Mr. Meade fell out on the highway. All the people going by laughed, at him." Some peoples experiences weren't seen by anyone but themselves. Junior Robin Jones said," I once walked in on my parents in an odd situation." Remember, no matter how embarrassing the experience was, you'll always get over it. Sooner or later.

It only hurts when it snags on clothing. It isn't as bad as some people think because if I decide I don't want a belly ring any more, I can just let it grow shut." Sophomore Jennifer Baker said, "When I pierced my finger nail I just wanted to be different, and I knew it wouldn't hurt on my nail, but it would on a body part. I pierced my thumb nail myself by using a hammer and a nail. My mom didn't get mad, she just thought I was a little crazy. Junior Beth Williams said, "I've always wondered what it would be like o get something pierced, like my thumb maybe, .. but I've never had the guts to try it, and I probably never will.

The sounds of music does soothe the soul. Or so senior Jeremy Jones said, "I listen to music because it relaxes me. Alternative seems to be the best music to clear my mind." Alternative and country music were trendy. However, there will always be those timeless classics which to some will never go ou t of style. Teacher Chuck Black said, "I like old hippy music. " There was a time when old hippy music was only sold on records or 8 tracks. These days records and 8 tracks are all but a forgotten form of music recording. Now music is on compact discs, which themselves are making cassettes become obsolete. Just as the form of recorded music has changed over the years so have the places where it is played. Gone are the d ays of gathering around the large component stereos. Music can be made to take whatever the occasion. "I just had a CD player installed in my truck," said senior Tim Mab bit. If there is one thing which music lovers should remain fortunate for, it is that the form of recorded music doesn't change its content nor the meaning of the lyrics. Although the form of the recorded music doesn't change what is in the lyrics, some of the lyrics, have obviously changed over the years. At one time a person could go to the mall and buy any cassette in the music store. Today a person must be 18 to purchase most popular music on the shelves. "I don't like the fact that music labels have become such a major part of buying CD's," said senior Matt Whitney.

This earthquake measured 7.2 on the Japanese 7-point intensity scale, with nearly 800 aftershocks, 80 of which could be felt by humans according to the National Meteorological Agency. About 275,000 people were still living in 984 temporary shelters. Many fled from homes that survived the earthquake thinking their houses would not survive the strong aftershocks. The Japanese national police said the death toll was over 5,000 and nearly 26,000 injured. The rescue crews in Kobe worked round the clock in search of survivors. Although few of the missing were expected to be found alive, a 60-year-old women, was found virtually unharmed, trapped in the wreckage of a four-story building. · A few students were effected. Junior, Beth Williams' cousin, Robin Martin was 100 feet away, where she lived while she was teaching Japanese Children to speak English. Williams said that her cousin felt some movement and was not injured. Other cities affected were Takarazuka, Nishinorniya, Ashiya, Awaji Islands and Osaka. The Japanese government received 1 billion dollars for earthquake relief and rebuilding. The Americ an Red Cro ss and AmeriCares took donations for earthquake victims. The tragedy was hard to believe, but with help from other countries, Japan was able to recover. Japan was rocked by an earthquake that measured 7.2 on the Richter scale. Approximately 5,000 people were killed during the quake. Billions of dollars in damage was experienced. Photo by R & MPhoto.

Senior Shannon Watkins stated," I think you should be able to carry your gifts around. The point of getting sent a gift is to show it off". The Beehive was also affected with this decision. DECA Teacher Gary Bannick said" It impacted sales in a negative manner." One student said, "I think the administrators are trying to control to much. Would they have to wait until 3:05 to receive their gifts?" Many students and faculty disagree with the administrators decision concerning Valentine's Day.

They like to get involved, and really help encourage the cast throughout the play," said senior Jem1y Patience (sheep). According to senior Hallie Jensen (Fern), "It was exciting and frightening all at the same time. The cast and crew really helped and encouraged me because it was my first time." For senior Bill VonFumetti (Goose), this play was also his first acting experience. "It By Terri Sinnott was a lot of fun being on the same stage with some. of the best actors, since I was a begim1er," said Von Fumetti. Senior Mandy Aleksiak (Martha Arable) said, "I have had a lot of experience from past plays, so I really tried to encourage the newcomers todotheirbestand tohavea great time." Tryouts for the children's play included reading a poem and some acting. The cast and crew worked hard for three weeks preparing for the performance. Junior Tony Hodge (A very Arable) said, "Memorizing the lines and knowing the character takes many hours of practice. We spent a lot of time rehearsing our parts after school." "Overall, I was very pleased with the outcome of the play. The cast and crew did a great job and the show was a success," said Aleksiak. "I am glad I tried out and made the part as Fen1 because it was a fun experience, and I made a lot of friends," said Jensen. Junior Brad Harbold said," I thought the actors did a great job portraying their characters. I almost cried when Charlotte died." Itwasfunbeing on the stage with the best actors.

" I thought the mock chemical spill was a great learning experience and a real eye opener. I realized that if I really had been in an accident and stayed where I'd originally been placed, well to put it nicely, I'd be DEAD! When I was asked if I'd do it again I said sure but I want to be one of the minor injured people.

"A good disaster was had by all". said Hailie Jensen dream of the school blowing up came true when the Chemistry Department assisted the Fire Department in a chemical disaster simulation. The disaster helped test out new equipment and new strategies for chemical situa tion. For some students it was an unusual sight to see what looked like tw o people in Glad Bags take seniors Bailie Jensen and Mandy Milner out of school in body bags. Chemistry teacher Shannon Cde Baca said, " We learned a lot about being safe, B ailie and Mandy tims so much so, we may blow it up again next year if Mr. Todddoesn'tdoitfirst." With a new strategy the Fire Department didn't rush right up, it wasn't until 45 minutes after they showed up at school before they entered the Chemistry room. The wait for the two victims was tedious but necessary because an accident in another state a Fire Department rushed in to a chemical disaster and the whole department died in the disaster.

Freshm en block teacher Brooks Schild led his stu - dents to build a nature project called The Thomas Jefferson Nature Area. This approximately half acre nature area includedmanydifferentkindsofwildflow - ers, a grass land area, many different kinds of trees and a wet lands area. The planting began during Earth week. Also a sprinkler system was installed in the summer. After the area was planted,Mr. Schild said, some wildlife might move into the middle of the city. Birds, squirrels, raccoons, insects and perhaps ducks may u tilize some of the habitat. "To be able to have the community come in and see it when it is done, that will be great," he said. "The reason I am doing this is because I felt the need to have a native natural envi - ronment for any Tee Jay student, or for that matter anyone in Council Bluffs to stud y,"said Mr. Schild. He a l so added th at there is an outdoor cl assroom for any class to use when th ey want to. "I think it will h elp the stud ents out a lot, but t hey should al so put more m oney into making the school b ette r," said freshm an Sarah Porter.

The first game was the freshmen-sophomore team vs. senior team. The freshmensophomore won the game. Then juniors played the faculty, the junior team won the game and went on to play the freshmen-sophomore team in the championship game. The freshmen-sophomore team dominated the game and were the ch a m - p10ns. "I thought it was pretty funny at first seeing all the people falling and making fools of themselves but after a while it got old and kind of boring," said sophomore Matt Knudson. "I thought it was extremely hilarious and I couldn 't get over how funny it was to see the people falling on their face," said sophomore Jessi McDermott. "It was really hard to try to stay seated on the donk e ys and carry the ball and then try to s hoot at t he bask e t while constantly tr ying to keep yo u r balance," said fr esh - man Ch ad Gnader.

Photo by Kelly Wood. -o.nl-en Max o '-~o On Team Unity q~ Another season is in the books for the Ironmen. After announcing Ironman was going to be a thing of the past at the end oflast season, Coach John Kinsel said, "lronman will go until I do." Those stong words keyed off an even stronger season. The guys and girls competed in three meets. They did exceptionally well. The season for the lifters, like all other sports, By Derek Hendrix had its ups and downs. Seniors Tim Steinspring and senior Bob Harger both had setbacks that put them out for one meet a piece. Steinspring missed the Invitational and Harger missed State. Although Ironman is an unsanctioned sport and did not get much recognition, the lifters did a great job. They had a great season, setting a lot of new records and finishing in the top classes at many different W e I g h t catagories at the three meets. When the end of the season came, Ironman held their yearly Pizza and A wards banquet at Godfathers. Ironman not only strengthened bodies, but also the lifter's minds and self esteem. Lifting is usually considered an independent sport but Coach Kinsel taught team work is the key. The T.J. I A.L. swi1n team competed in many meets this season despite only having eight people on the team. "It helps to have more kids out so we can h ave enough people for each relay so the kids can get a rest," said Coach Dave Hook. "You w ould think that there would be fighting among the rival schools but we haven't had any problems," said Coach Hook.

"The Jackets had only one thing on their minds this year and that was to go to the championship and win it all," said senior Doug Saathoff. The coaches for the year were Sharon Semler andSteve Peterson. Peterson is a student at UNO and 'By 'Bi[[ 9vfcPecl( also plays volleyball for UNO too! " The boys volleyball team was a club, it was designed to teach the players about the rules of the game and also to strengthen their abilities to play the game. Some of the key playersfor the season were senior's Erin Foster for the best set's, Eric Lambrecht and Robert Williams for the plays at the net, and for passing it was Doug Saathoff and Josh Herrington," said Ms. Semler. The men all went to a competition this year at Millard North. The team ended the competition with a record of 2- 2. The team became the new champions of the bronze division. There was another kind of league during the year, and it was the intramural volleyball league. They only practiced one day a week. The teams supervisors were John Kinsel and Wayne Maines. The league was for students to have fun and enjoy themselves. It was very fun for all of them and everybody enjoyed getting to play against all of their friends. "It was a lot of fun, and very challenging playing against people that you know but all in all I had a blast," said junior Matt Lippert. with Omaha South.

Students Study Big Screen by Matt Arnett According to students, there were many shows on TV worthy of watching. First we flipped over to Fox. One of the many standouts was The X- Files. It starred David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson as FBI agents who investigated paranormal activity. " I liked the show because of the variety. Every week it was a different show," said junior John Cahill. Next we took you to ABC. One stand- out was NYPD Blue. It starred Jimmy Srnitts and Dennis Franz. " I liked the show because of the controversy around it. Not too many shows used adult language and had nudity," said senior Shawn Burgstrum. There were also many movies in the theater. Pulp Fiction starred John Travolta and Samuel Jackson as hitmen sent to retrieve a brief case with mysterious contents. " You never knew where this movie was taking you. It was a three parter, but it all fit together in the end," said senior Bo Allbritton. Natural Born Killers starred Woody Harrelson and Juliette Lewis as serial killers caught up in the web of TV media and tabloids. " The cinematography was great and Oliver Stone is a great director," said senior Josh Price. If students didn't feel like spending that much money, there were always the video store. Ju rassic Park finally made it's way to video stores after almost a year in theaters.

Anthony Circo Couples ... They Come in Pairs By Shannon Koopmeiners Do you ever catch yourself picking a flower and one by one pick off a petal saying he loves me, he loves me not. And when it ends with he loves me not you start over. People are always looking for that special someone. One to spend time with. Someone to be loved and adored by. People can fall in love for the strangest reasons. Senior Tesa Powers said " I knew I was in love with my boyfriend when I first saw him smile with his new shiny sliver braces. It was ear to ear shine". Senior Cheryl Merryman said," I knew I was in love when my boyfriend bought me a sixteen hundred dollar ring." Couples share many experiences. " My boyfriend and I are the next Seickle and Ebert. We've seen almost every movie that has come out," senior Amanda West stated. "On my first date with my girlfriend Channy. We went to a haunted house and I grabbed Dracula's behind. They kicked me out of the haunted house and she had to walk through alone with people she didn't know very well," senior Devon Leesley stated. Some experiences are more embarrassing than others. Junior Shawna Williams and her boyfriend Chris Hawkins were very embarrassed when they went skinny dipping in Carter Lake with another couple. They were spotted by the cops. "It is funny thinking about it now but I felt really stupid", said Williams.

Junior Faith Martenson said, "Yes I do think a lot of people have stress." Martenson said, "Christmas is the worst time of the year for stress because, most people never have any idea what to get people." Junior June Perales said, "Another stressful time is tests." She also stated that tests are probably the most stressful thing,we have to take while we're learning at school." Freshmen Jamie Jansen stated, "I think that stress is a major part of everybody's life." Sophomore Amanda Walters said, "I think stress is a part of some people's day at one time or another." Also, another very stressful thing that most of the students have outside of school are their jobs. Most all of the students asked said, stress was a big part of their lives. Stress can also make people break out in zits and make them nervous and dizzy. Stress does, also have a solution because, there's a special medication called Zoloft that helps you relieve stress. Not only are there medications that will help one with stress but, there are also other solutions to the common daily six letter word called stress. The other solutions to that common word stress are to take everything one step at a time.

Why are people going through all this pain? A tattoo of course. Senior Hailie Jensen said,"I thought they were going to kill me, I squeezed senior Charlyn Quick's hand so hard I left nail marks." Some people's experiences weren't as wonderful as others. Senior Donna Jackson said,"The funniest experience I ever had was when I received my tattoo on my shoulder. I would have to taK:e a friend to the restroom with me to rub ointment on it. Well, when other girls walked in we would have to explain to them why we were in the same restroom stall." Senior Charlyn Quick said,"It was so hard not to laugh because when I did my stomach, it would flop up and down and it would mess the tattoo artist up." Jensen 's mom tried telling her that a tattoo is not like a pair of jeans or a new hairstyle. In a few months you can't just wash it off or throw it away. The only way to have it removed is by a surgical process. In Omaha tattoo parlors you must be 18 years of age and have I.D. to prove it or have a parental guardian present the whole time it's going on and if you are not completely sober there is no deal.

By Nicole Donnelly Students want lots and lots of money. Students get jobs to earn money. Even though jobs take up a lot of students free time they still work long hours. Junior Brandy Ferris said, "My job is okay they don't give me very many hours." Sophomore Steve Lustgraff said, "We only Ii.ave three cooks at KFC, I have to work a lot." Others hate the long hours and the pressure of work. Senior Deb Jensen said, "I hate my job because it keeps me up late, because Taco John's doesn't close until midnight during the week and I am trying very hard to graduate early." Other pressures come from parents. Sophomore Brandi Donnelly said," I am sick of my parents telling me to get a job, so I can pay for the expensive stuff I want." Some students like their jobs. Junior Jenny Kafka said, "I usually like my job at Subway, but it usually depends on who I work with." Seruor David Kohl said," I make believe that I am sick so I can leave work early, because I get tired of working." School gets in the way of some jobs. Senior Pennie Haven said, "'I can only work on weekends because my dad says that school and my sports come before work." Some students can not close at their place of employment because of the late hour it closes. Senior Rene Molgaard said," I can't close because my parents freak out if I am not home by 11 o'clock on school nights and Subway doesn't close until midnight on school nights."

Whenever someone threw something on that other people found "trendy" they started a new fashion. Super models strut their stuff along the runway wearing their trends, but lucky for thell! they get paid for wearing those kind of clothes. But for those of us who can't afford to spend a thousand dollars on a see through dress, we would wear construction boots, flannels, and shirts and jackets with team logos on them. Senior Tesa Powers said,"I like the trends that people wear but my dad thinks that they are prett:Y grungy." Senior D~vid Fick said," The thing I like most about the latest trends is that they come in smaller sizes for my daughter, Kaycee." The way these trends would go in and out of style it was hard to keep up with what was in or out. Jenny Schroeder said,"I think the trends that people wear are just phases they are going through." Whether it is just a phase or not, who is it to decide when a certain style is "not cool" anymore? When a person wore new clothes, grungy or neat, people caught on and ran out to the mall to buy the same style, that's how trends got started. Senior Shaine Rothmeyer said, "The people who decide when a trend is out of style are the first people who wear the new styles." So a word to the wise, keep your eyes open and keep in style.

Bogatz Sports can be one of the funniest comedies known to mankind. Many times a person will have an embarrassing moment that will occur during a sports competition. "One time during a pep assembly I kicked and accidently let a stinker, it was kind of lou~ but I don't think anybody heard it. I wasn't embarrassed," said junior Kari Foster. "During my sophomore year at a basketball game, I was running into play and I had an extra shirt on that I needed to take off and when I went to take it off my jersey went with it and I flashed everybody in the gym," said senior Jenny Black. "My most embarrassing moment was during a track meet, right before I was about to compete. I got huge cramp and started jumping up and down and almost got disqualified," said junior Matt Arnett. "Once during a football game I hiked the ball and hit Casey McGrain in the head with the ball and McGrain was looking every which way for the ball,"said senior Wes Belt. "During a varsity football game I was trying to tackle the runner and a referee got in my way so I ran him over and tackled the runner," said senior Eric Giles. So from now on keep your eyes open wide and you just might see something so funny that it will knock you off your seat and keep you talking and you just might get it on film.

Spring is known for rainy days, warm weather, end of the school year and graduation. Spring brought the Junior-Senior Prom. Prom was held on April 21 at the Scoular Building. Prom was usually held at the UNO Ballroom, construction at UNO changed the plans. Graduation was another big part of spring. Graduation was a time for students to become part of the real world and its adult problemsthatmostparents andolderpeople face. No matter how spring came in, it went out like a lamb because students, teachers, and seniors left Tee Jay with their own Images of the year. • Spring Brings Rain & Shine By Amy Huseth an Webber thought the morning of April 19 would be like every other morning. He dropped his three-year-old son, Joseph, off at America's Day Care Center in the Oklahoma City federal bl)ilding. Webber just sat down at his desk in the nearby courthouse when the force of the explosion hurled him across it. He ran in fear to find smoky rubble where the daycare had been, but 20 minutes later he found a police officer carrying Joseph. His face had been slashed, but he was still alive. He was one of the lucky ones. A bomb, made of fertilizer, which weighed thousands of pounds, had been placed in a moving van in the federal building's garage. Junior Celia Medina felt angry at the ordeal. "Th ere were so many innocent people that got hurt, killed, or scared to know that there are people out there who don't care and could kill anybody, anytime," Medina said. Junior June Perales felt the bombing had terrible effects. "It's promoting more violence among innocent people," Perales said. As of May 1, 150 people were found dead, many more were still missing. Timothy McVeigh had been arrested, but "John Doe No. 2" was still free. The Oklahoma City bombing was a national disaster, but it brought a nation together. President Clinton summed it up as he called the bombers "evil cowards." Freshmen Laura Fuhs and Amanda Baker from the Sting block help raise money for the Oklahoma City bombing victims.

It was the hottest sports issue to hit the news stands since the baseball strike. Michael Jordan returned to the Chicago Bulls basketball team and it was the most mouth watering and most delightful news in pro basketball. "He was what made basketball return to its real life, " said senior Devin Schoening. Junior Chad Delezene said, "I thought it was good because he's the world's greatest basketball player who ever played." Sophomore Lisa Mcintosh said, "I don't care, it's good and all, but sports doesn't count much to me." Freshman Linda Points seemed to sum up sports fans' feelings.

Some just got out of bed and came to school on boxer shorts day. Of course the end of the week the TWIRP dance was held in the New Fieldhouse. This is a dance that the men especially enjoy because the ladies had to pick up the tabs. "Hat day seemed like everyday," said senior Josh Herrington. Hat day was the most popular day of the year . But it was a little different since there was a snow day and hat day and Disney Day were combined. "Polka dot day was kind of stupid because no one dressed up," said sophomore Crystal Mowery. "My favorite day was Hippie day because I could dress stupid and not get laughed at," said junior Brian Rolfe. There was one more day, boxer day. Sophomore Brandi Donnelly said, "I like boxer day because then I could wear the most comfortable clothes." The TWIRP dance was held on Friday March 11. "The whole week was weird," said junior Chad Brandenburg. " I think TWIRP week brings spirit out in our school,"said sophomore Dylan Peck. "Overall TWIRP Week was pretty good," said sophomore Melissa Levell. The theme for TWIRP week was CARNIVAL.

It was held from 8:30 to 11 :30 p.m. and post-prom followed at Brunswick Recreation Center. Prom was full of many changes and problern.s. Decorating was one of the key problems for the junior class officers. Glassware was broken during shipment, and they had less than 24-hours to get decoration . The back drop was sent tie-dyed orange instead of the yellow-gold which was ordered, and half a dozen of candles were scratched. There was more work to be done because of the new location. "UNO always set up tables and helped out, we had to do everything on our own because the Scoular building did not supply the service," said sponsor Deb Goodman. Prom princess was Olivia Vargas and prince was Kevin Johnson. King and queen were Matt Whitney and Melissa Petersen. "I was really surprised and happy that Matt was my king," said Petersen. "Although the dance floor was smaller and the room was full, everyone still danced and had a good time," said senior Tesa Powers. Post-prom was held at Brunswick and it was full of a variety of things to do. A hypnotist, bowling, karoke and pool were just a few of the activities. "I really enjoyed post-prom. We had many different things to do," said senior Charlyn Quick. Court members, back row: Jodi Martin, John Podraza, Melissa ..,...,...~=~_...,,.

T By Amy Huseth & Beth Williams The annual Variety Show was held April 21 and April 22 at Tee Jay and mixed both Tee Jay and A.L. acts. Senior Bill Von Fumetti, who was an MC and performed "The Diary of Adam," felt the show was a success. "Every show went off without a hitch. Although there was some tension among the backstage crew, we were all still able to present the audience with a clean, solid show," Von Fumetti said. Corey Jackson who played the "Master of Ceremony," felt doing the show was a good experience. "It was a lot of work, but it was fun meeting new people," Jackson said. Senior Mandy Aleksiak, who played the "Mistress of Ceremonies," felt that mixing Tee Jay and A.L. acts improved the show. "New friendships were formed and the cast got along amazingly well. I don't like the idea that there is a Tee Jay act, then an A.L. act. I'd like to see some mixed groups. That would help ease the little rivalry we have," Aleksiak said. "The students were very responsive to the performance , but I feel more of the faculty could have supported the student actors," Von Fumetti said. Seniors Keri Peek and Bill Von Fumetti make the audience laugh as they perf onn a theatrical skit . Students from both Tee Jay and A .L. worked together to entertain audiences from both schools.

By Jodie Gress Of all the great athletes, the Special Ed group, is one that has been overlooked. Thirteen people put aside their fears and doubts to give it their best at the Special Olympics. Although the rain called for a cancelation on Friday, April 21, they were even more pumped up when they went to compete the following Monday. The events ran ged anywhere from track and field, softball, and long jump, to the wheelchair race. Lunch was provided for the Olympics by McDonald's, Hot-N-Now, Frito Lay and Pepsi. The long distance track and field event was run by only one person, junior Jeremy Brennan. He has won many medals in the past. Brennan said, "I'm proud of the gold medals, andl'm real happy for myself." Junior Trisha McPartland who specialized in the long jump said, "I like running and jumping." Some didn't even need to win to be happy, junior Sarah Talbott said, "Having my parents come over to watch is what I'm most proud of." The Special Olympics aren't a time for competition, mainly just to have fun. Their motto "Let me win, but if I cannot win, let me be brave in the attempt" is a good example of this. According to associate Jan Smith, " It was a fun day for all, whether you won or lost. " Money was raised for the group's new uniforms by selling buttons during TWIRP Week, and donations. Student Council, and Special Olympics oflowa also helped out. Old uniforms were purchased by the parent's of the students for keepsakes. After the long and tiring day, they were awarded for their efforts. Jeremy Brennan placed first in the 200 meter run and Softball, Derek Kinzie placed first in the 25 and 30 meter Wheel Chair Race, Jennifer Smith placed second in the 25 meter walk, Sarah Talbott, Brian Gress, Trisha McPartland all placed first in the Longjump, and Deena Ladely placed second in the longjump.

By Terri Sinnott and John Minshall Both DECA and Business Professionals of America were successful enough to send representatives to their respective Nationals. It all started in October when both organizations won state elections. Steve Ng became the DECA State District III Vice President. "I am proud of Steve and his accomplishments," said sponsor Gar Bannick. Senior Ken Smith also won a campaign for the Business Professionals of America state President. "Ken beat a tough slate of officers," said sponsor Julie O'Doherty. "As president I come up with agendas for meetings , and organize coferences between the other members," said Smith. In November DECA attended the Central Regional Conference in Chicago. While at the conference students attended several Marketing Educa tion seminars. "Chicago was great. Aside from all the fun memories I also learned a lot from the seminars," said senior Tim Mabbitt. Both organizations were also successful on the state competition level. Senior Scott Potter won first place in Food Marketing. "I wasn't expecting to place, let alone win," said Potter. Deca Nationals were in St Louis, Missouri, and Business Professionals Nationals were in Knoxville, Ten .

But some students express themselves by their hats. Seniors Josh Herrington and Tony Hillerson make it their life's quest to be different. Herrington being the longer collector of the two has 25 hats, while Hillerson has six. Herrington put it well when he said, "You can never have too much money and you can never have enough ha ts." Half of the fun of Herrington's hats are that he has one for every occasion. Hillerson's philopsophy is a bit different, he said," No hat has a special occasion, but every occasion has a hat." In order to have such fascinating hats they ended up doing lots of traveling. Hillerson went as far as Pasadena, California to get one of his hats, and Herrington to Luzerne, Switzerland. Hillerson said," Some people like the hats, some people hate them, and some people don't know me. " Herrington said," I may look goofy, and people may think I'm weird, but I'm having fun and that's all that counts." Though facing constant ribbing from their friends, they still continue to wear their hats.

"I thought being a senior would be the most scariest and nerve-wracking thing, all the worries and thoughts of what to do with your life, but the responsiblities have made me more mature," said senior Charlyn Quick. What school should I go to? What should I major in? What do I want to be when I grow up? All of these are questions that run through the minds of seniors as graduation rolls closer. Senior Tony Hillerson may not know what's to be, but he has a lot of tips on the future. "Three things you must remember; (1) Time is an element that there is no lack of; (2) The illusion of knowledge is worse than not knowing.

Iowa Western Community College offers college credits through an advanced program. The classes are taught by teachers that have been certified by the college. Senior Bill VonFumetti took advantage of this opportunity. He acquired his associate's degree from Iowa Western before he received his high school diploma. Most colleges accept these transfer credits, but Harvard and Princeton, the colleges VonFumetti applied to, did not accept credits from a community college. "Th e credits will not count towards my bachelor's degree, but the knowledge and experience w ill help me to achieve my gQals. It will also look good on my applications," said VonFumetti. "He is the first person to really take advantage of the opportunities that are offered. About 30 students are enrolled, but VonFumetti has advanced farther than the rest," said counselor Nancy Hale. "Even at the college some people think I'm too smart to approach. I'm not smart, I'm a hard worker," said VonFumetti.

It's going to be a long day, and for many seniors staying in bed was the best option. This led to a disease known as senioritis. Other symptoms of senioritis included not doing homework, and an urge to graduate as soon as possible. Senior Tesa Powers said she skipped for extra needed study time. " I skip an entire day of school to study for AcDec, " Powers said. "A few of my classes have no importance tom y future, and that annoys me because it wastes my time," she said.

SeniorTesa Powers feels that things will change after graduation,"! feel I will become a social outcast because I'm going to have to work and study 24-hours a day plus I'll have no friends because all my old friends will be faraway in college." . Everybody has precious memories, Russell said, "Porn Pon initiation was the best. I had to tell Mr. Koch that I loved him and I had to dance by myself in the student loung at lunch in a ridiculous outfit." Things seniors will miss most, varied from games to assemblies and most of all friends. Even after everybody leaves high school, we w ill always have a piece of T.J. High School with us.

Not only is graduating expensive the whole year is. There's the senior ski trip, Prom, senior photos, cap and gown, announcements and to fund the senior slide show they had to sell Tshirts which many seniors bought. There were many seniors that weren't able to go on the ski trip because they had to save money for other expenses. "I didn't go because I needed the time and money for other senior expenses," said senior Doug Saathoff. Of the senior expenses the one that usually costs the most is senior pictures. Picture packages range from $200 to $600. "I spent about $600 on pictures with my boyfriend," said senior Jenny Boots. Most seniors own cars. So that means they . have insurance, and car payments. But if they're lucky their car is already paid off, although insurance can run very high. "My insurance is p retty costly since I had my accidents," said senior Eric Lambrecht.

"Not many seniors went probably about 30 of them," said senior Lisa Wu. Wu said, "I think a lot people stayed at school because they didn't have enough money. " For those who went it was a good time. Senior Mandy Milner said, "It was so funny watching everyone falling down, even though the next day you were so sore from falling." "The funniest thing was Josh Herrington and Mr. Kinsel and I teaching Mandy Milner how to ski," said senior Tony Hillerson. "Even though everyone was falling down no was hurt that I knew of except I think Bill Von Fumetti," said senior Rene Molgaard. "It was a lot of fun, I think a lot of people learned how to ski too. I wish there was more snow," said Hillerson. "It will probably be one of my greatest memories," said Molgaard. Whether it was falling or laughing or just hanging out with your friends the ski trip seemed to be a success.

"I wasn't h appy about the change in location, but I was happy to be graduating, "said senior Hailie Jens e n . Valedictorian Mary Wernette 's s peech was on a serious note as she thanked Val edictorian Bill VonFumetti in her speech for h elping h er "reach for the stars ." VonFumetti's inform a tive speech gave the seniors one last source of a d vise. "Remember, Golf is life. The rest is just de tails," said VonFumetti as he dosed his speech. As s i stant Principal Cyle Forney was hoping his wife did not go in to labor since his wife was due the same day as graduation. "My favorite part of graduati on was w h en the symposium speakers spoke. I thou ght it was neat when Mandy Alek siak read th at Dr. Seuss book," said junior Mindy Englehart. Junior Matt Arnett said, "I w as in an emoti onal state because I r ealized n ext year w ould be my last year at Thomas Jefferson."

By Lisa Dukich As seniors counted down the da ys until school was out, Senior Honor Day meant the end of school was near. Wednesday, May 17 all the students and faculty, with parents and community members gathered in the New Fieldhouse for the purpose of hono ring the class of '95. Having the assembly at night instead of during school was a consideration, a c c ording to organizer, Nancy Hale. The seniors that got awards said they liked having it in the day with all the underclassmen there. "I wish I could make it more lively so it wasn 't so boring for underclassmen," said Mrs. Hale. Scholarships and awards were given out to the deserving seniors. There were a few full tutition scholarships. The Peter Kie w it Com - prehensive Scholarship was for full tutition for a Nebraska college or university or $5, 000 for an Iowa college or university. These were given to John Minshall, Jaime White and Rachael Williams. Ken Smith received a full tutition sch o larship to Drake University. He took Drake's ph ysics te st and out of all the stud ents that took the te st, Smith got the highest score. Smith's scholar ship was estimat ed to ha ve been $ 80,000 for 4 years at Drake University. Smith said that because his grades weren't good enough the test was the only chance he had to go to Drake.

As the year came to a close there were a few things on everybody's mind. For the seniors it was graduation and for the rest getting out for summer break. Seniors looked forward to their futures. Some went onto college some headed off to the real world to a full-time job. The end of the year brought the annual Senior Honor Day, a day that seniors got acknowled ged for their hard work over the past four years of high school. Students became more and more anxious as the sum1n er break grew nearer. Students looked forward to swimming, relaxing and working. The end of the year brought the image to a close, only to be started again. • The Image was created by all who attended Thomas Jefferson High School for any amount of time. The year was a growing and learning experience for all. Photo by Mike Hale.

It was a long haul, but it was worth it. I want to start by thanking the staff. Without you guys the book wouldn't have gotten done. You all did a great job. I especially want to thank Devin, Troy, Wes, Terri, and Genius for helping me when I really needed it. When deadlines came around, when proofs came back and when I needed some one just to talk to. Genius and Terri, don't ever forget Red Beard, Thank you guys so much. Goodman you have helped me in more ways than you will ever know. I have learned so much from you. Yearbook gave me a reason to like school and gave me something to work for. Without yearbook I don't know what I would have done with my four years of high school or what I could have shown for it. Now I can pull this book out and show it off when some one asks. Thank You So Very Much I want to thank my family for believing in me and helping me through school and life and all my little accidents. I never learned to drive but I learned tha t you loved me. I know I wasn't the best son you could ask for, but you always were there to catch me when I was going down. You kept me from quitting when things got tough and made me stick it out when things got rough. You always let me say what I was thinking and give my opinion on everything. Thank you boy, Myron, EZ. I am glad this book is finally done it only took most of my time and energy during my senior year. It seemed it was never going to get done but it's in your hands now completed and full of our lives.

Ohle added, "Weekends are very important to everyone, because it's a time when people can release their stress and frustrations and have a little fun." Junior Jenny Baker said, "I don't do anything on the weekends. Most of the time I just go to the Old Market and hang out and check out all of the guys!"

PPORTUNITY KNOCKS By Stephani Maron and Kylene Kermoade Z'uring the sumn1er, there were many opportunities available to students. Whether it was attending suffilTler school, camps or science research programs, students excelled in many areas. Some students spent their hot suffilTler in a classroom, rather than lounging in air conditioning or a cool swimnling pool. They took classes for such reasons as driving, making up lost credits and graduating early. Sophomore Jamie Aldredge took smnmer school to make up lost c r edits. Aldredge said, "It didn't really bother 1ne, I was home by 1:30 p.1n. anyway. " Cheerleaders and Porn Pon girls also spent the ir suffilTlers doing school related activities in the hot sun. The pep squads went to c am.p in ste ad of camp coming to them. "We didn't h ave a lot of time to relax, we had to practice and p rac tice. But after it was over, the practice was r e ally worth it," said senior pommer Nikki SITiith. T h e Porn Pon squad me1nbers all agreed that c amp had paid off after they received a bid to N ationals. There was a big change at c arnp fo r the che erleaders. It was the first year the y c ould build during cheers. Varsity mem ber Kristy Mille r said, "Building made us look so much b etter and it puts us farther ahead for competition."

The nature area was also maintained by the students. Senior Bill Young and freshman Jose Vargas spent their summer watering the trees in the Nature Area.

Hard ij Vacations and S~Jobs By Laura Fuhs, Dina Black , Toni Damgaard A1most all students have been on a vacation once in their lives, whether it be to another state or just to a local amusement park. Very few students have ever visited another country, but freshman Daniell Birchard was able to visit three, West Germany, Austria and Italy. "My favorite things were going para-sailing and sight seeing," said Birchard. There were also parts Birchard didn't enjoy so much. "The worst thing was sitting and talking to my relatives." Sure, this type of vacation takes a lot of time and planning, but when it comes down to it, it's one of the most exciting vacations one could ever take. ~ While some stu- .->enior Shannon Walters working at the new Dairy dents spent their Queen to earn his summer money.

Sophomore Sam Barta andjunjor Mike Stanfill both wanted to show their parents they had learned some responsibility. Barta said, "My mother thinks I am irresponsible and is sick of giving me money." Some people don't have the advantage because of their age or hairstyle. According to freshman Jared Osmers, he didn't get a job because he had purple hair and a mohawk. "They wanted me to dye my hair back and grow my sides out," Osmers said. Sophomore Angela Kim has another reason for not getting a job. "My parents would rather have me get my education than get a job because I have the rest of my life to work," she said. A lot of people found out this summer that having a job pays off, literally! no nm no TJ2 n3 J 9 Treynor 8 ----~-- 11 SC Heelan n 2 SC Heelan no Lc 1 TJ 3 St. Albert 5 TJ 2 Mo.

Marla Peterson and Arny Andersen led the varsity to a record of 10-24. The junior varsity finished at 7-9. Leading the varsity efforts was graduate Jenny Black with the highest batting average and the most RBI's and graduate Debi Midkiff with the most stolen bases. Midkiff and Black were named 1st team All-City. Junjor Melissa Rocha and Marti Hensley received honorable mentions. "Even though we didn't have a winning record, we improved a lot through the season, 11 said senior Brandi Lambrecht. The team selected Black as the MVP and senior Sarah Hulett for the spirit award. Sophomore Kelly Foster received a special coaches award. The junior varsity was led by freshmanNikki LaFerla with the highest batting average. Junior Jena Verpoorten had the most RBI's and sophomore Alex LeGuillou with the most stolen bases. Verpoorten was voted MVP and sophomore Kylene Kermoade was given the spirit award. 11 I had a lot of fun playing and I really learned a lot," said LaFerla. The team played in weather extremes. Whether it was playing in 106 degree temperature or not being able to play at all due to the rain. The softball players never knew what the week would bring them. Sophomore Jamie Schreiber said," You could never tell if our practice or game was on or off. We would all show up at the field and wait for Coach Peterson to let us know if we were playing."

Heelan 2 By Bobby Rich and Matt Erickson From sun burns to mosquitos the baseball team experienced it all. According to Coach Lee Toole, many of the underclassmen were great contributors to the team. "When you look at the overall picture, we had a very successful baseball season" , said Coach Toole. Following in the foot steps from the pa t season the baseball players tried to keep the winning tradition alive. Many players were moved up to varsity during the middle of the season. "It felt great to join the team and excel in many phases," said junior Jason Mcintosh. Junior Mike Perkins said, "The season went great, playing both junior varsity and varsity. It was fun." Seven jackets made it to the All-City. They were graduates Mike Zadina, Robert Willams, and Devin Schoening, seniors Chris Laferla and Tim Podraza, juniors Tom Parrack and Jason Mcintosh. One player had an outstanding week that can't go without mention, graduate Mike Zadina. In one week Zadina hit six homeruns. He also had thirty-one runs batted in, four doubles, and two triples. "That's a great week for any player at any level," commented Coach Toole. Sophomore Tom Reikofski went to a camp at Oklahoma State University. One thing they thought helped them was the fact that they had the oppurtunity to practice during the school year. "We caught almost all of the time except when they were explaining things, when we slept, and when we ate," said Reikofski. The players worked out in weight rooms and they worked on their pitching and catching abilities. The players also went over basic drills and plays.

Cover -covers Reflects Personalities By Jennifer Baker and Jill Hendrix They go anywhere from Elvis, Mickey Mouse or just a plain old brown paper bag. It is our everyday common bookcovers. Bookcovers do many things for your books. Freshman Robin Etherington said, "They are to protect your books so they can keep the books for years to come." It also gives the school a little extra money to spend on other things the school needs. When it comes to bookcovers junior J arni Adams says that she draws and writes her favorite sayings on her books. Every once in awhile Adams has to hide her books from her teachers, you never know what they are going to say about some of those words. Adams also said, "Bookcovers are teachers best friends." Also a good profit for some of those teachers that charge. In some ways bookcovers are bad for our environment junior J.D. Bogatz said, "Bookcovers are a waste of paper and should not be used. " Bogatz also added, "We are just killing the trees." The types of bookcovers people put on their books reflect their personality. Ones that are just thrown on their books, make people think that they are sloppy and lazy. Creative people that may put clippings of magazines may 1ead people to think they are creative and care what their books' appearance looks like. In every school you also have those people that don't care at all and come to class every day without a book cover. For those who do this they suffer the consequences of paying anywhere from 25 cents to 50 cents or what ever the teacher told them to pay. Many unique bookcovers are anywhere from sketches to going the extra mile to use money to go for the extremely snazzy looking bookcover to impress all your friends.

Students spent a lot of their time at their lockers, and they added their own personal touch and made them seem more like home. Junior Cori Zarek decorated her locker with cow print. "Since I spent all day at school, I wanted my locker to be more personal than a normal locker," said Zarek. Zarek was not the only one who wanted her locker to stand out from the rest. Junior Jena Verpoorten decorated her locker by putting green marble contact paper up. "For two years, I had to look at the pukey colors they paint the lockers, and I hated it," said Verpoorten. Others who had decorated their lockers were juniors Jessi Underwood, who decorated her locker with sunflowers and Jill Harrill, whose locker was all black and white checkers. There were also the students that went with the traditional posters. From pictures of the opposite sex or their favorite band and even pictures of them and their friends. Junior J.D. Bogatz has Nebraska football posters as well as hockey posters in his locker. Lockers were even decorated for each holiday season. Some used battery operated Christmas lights. Sophomores Brandie Jacoby and Kelly Foster shared a locker and decorated it for the holidays. "We used lights, made wire stars and snowmen. We also had stockings hung. This made us feel like we were in the holiday spirit," said Jacoby. So no matter what your locker looked like, whether it was clean or messy, it probably reflected your personality.

No, it's not the first day of school. It's your birthday. ·Everyone celebrates their birthday differently. Even though everybody is "different" there is still one holiday that everybody celebrates in some way. The old American tradition was to spend time with your family and your friends, while you eat cake and ice cream. Some people stick with it and others don't. Sophomore Derek Henry and freshman Jason Rassmussen spent time with their friends and families. Henry said, "I have cake and ice cream after my parents give me presents every year." Other people celebrate their birthdays like it is the best holiday ever. Scott Adams goes on a trip on his birthday every year. "Last year it was a blast. A couple of my friends went with me to Tampa, Florida to watch a Lightnings game." There was a funny incident one time when Danielle Eggett's friends threw a surprise party on her 11th birthday. "When I got there everyone was hiding in my bedroom and when I walked in there, I jumped and hit my head on the wall. I had a big bump on my head for two weeks!" Eggett said. The worst time to have a birthday is around the holidays, especially Christmas. Sophomore Susan Schutt has a birthday three days after Christmas. "I hate it because you don't get as many presents as you would during the summer," she said. Even though some people celebrate their birthday's differently doesn't mean that they are different. Everyone does something different.

Krisel Kerry Kriten Rachel Kritenbrink Mandi Krueger Nicole LaFerla Joey Lane I By Stephani Maron & Kylene Kermoade When asked how they spend most of their free time, many people say hanging out with their friends. Friends are important to people who are young, middle aged and those who are older. It could be said that friends play a key roll in almost everyone's life. Different people look for various qualities in their friends. Freshman Amanda Moore said, " I think friends should be able to keep secrets and stand beside you at all times." Junior Jamie Phillips said," The qualities I think a friend should have is that they are trustworthy and they won't judge you no matter what you do even if it's something that they believe is wrong." Friends can be very valuable to a person. " Friends are the ones who pick you up when you are down," said sophomore Pat Rose. Some people are lucky enough to have friends who would do almost anything for them. Social Studies teacher John McKinley said, "When I was building my house, my good friend came over and helped me build it even though it was 100 degrees outside." Some friends provide life and death functions for each other. According to a junior, the best thing that they have ever done for a friend was to keep them from driving drunk. There are also those friends that say they are your friends, but once you tum your back they are talking bad about you. You have to know when and when not to trust someone even if that means you have to learn the hard way. Always remember a friend is there for you and they stick together through thick and through thin. You can also become a very important part in someone's life. So in the end, stick with those friends who care for you the most and never let them go.

The competitor's came from every state like Iowa, Nebraska etc ..... People also came from country's like Saudi Arabia, Puerto Rico and various other places. At Drake University everyone walked around the track. Then the Junior Olympians were welcomed and congratulated. Hot air balloons, planes flying in the air.and sky divers that jumped from the planes all greeted the competitors. People ran around the track with a torch ,and then lit the big torch, just like in the Olympics. After that they let off fireworks. Freshman Lori Mc Vey said, "Seeing the opening ceremony was exciting. It made me feel like I was a part of the real Olympics." The next day all the Taekwondo competitor's performed their patterns (forms) at the Convention Center in Des Moines, Iowa. There were also Karate and Judo taking place at the Convention Center. All of the other sports were spread out in different buildings in Des Moines. The international sparring competition was held also on that day. International sparring is heavy duty fighting for two , ninety second rounds non-stop. The next day at the Convention Center was the opening ceremony for Taekwondo and for the sparring competitions. There were over 460 competitors. The total competitor's at the Junior Olympics was over 10,000 and 1,500 just from the state of Iowa. Mc Vey took third place sparring, "I think it's kind of cool that I took third, because of all of the people I had to compete against." Next years Junior Olympics will be held in New Orleans.

Junior Jennifer Baker remembers the first day her freshman year. "I remember all the bad things that people said about Tee Jay before I came, and I found out that most of them were not true, after my first week here, "said Baker. Other freshmen had different reactions about their first day. Freshman Jared Osmers said, "It was just like any other school, except it was bigger and had a lot more girls." Another worry on many freshmen minds was what the upper classmen were going to do to them. From elevator passes to being stuffed into a locker or trash can. Nothing but the worst was going through the freshmen's heads as they walked down the halls for the first time. Senior Casey McGrain recalls the first day of his freshman year. McGrain said, "I wasn't scared I paid off officer Kennedy in donuts to be my personal body guard until the day I graduated." Worrying about upperclassmen seems to be a common tradition among many freshman on their first day at school. Senior Matt Arnett said, "I don't try to scare freshmen, it just comes natural to me, or I think it's because I threaten to beat them with a wet noodle if they don't bow down to me and call me the Highlander. But that's probably not it.

It was found that with all the improvements there were still problems to be worked out. An example is when students received their schedules. Many were placed in unwanted classes. Junior Silina Childers said, "I didn't even sign up for early bird and it was on my schedule." Due to the new system the counseling center was booked for weeks with students making changes. "It took forever just to switch from choir to French," said sophomore Jamie Pogge. Junior Lisa Mcintosh said, "I had an early bird class, a seventh hour and four study halls in between." By mid September (four weeks into the school year) most people were satisfied with their schedules. In reference to the new attendance system Assistant Principal John Neal said, "The system held so much more information on the students." There were so many glitches in the system it caused chaos in teachers, students and parents lives. For part of the year administrators switched off the new computer system to a different system that would be 100% accurate until the glitches were worked out. Other teachers and students were pleased with new computers in classrooms. A new room was built to accommodate 13 new Gateway computers. "It gives the students a chance to explore technology hands on," said instructor Bob Godfrey. Some of the students favorite modules were the robotic arm where students used a mechanical arm to understand a human arm. Also graphic arts, where students designed ads, t-shirts and hats. ew Traditions ... Big Hit Student Council Takes Active Role In School By Kristy Miller With new sponsors, Paul Hans and Julie McComas, Student Council started many new traditions begining with Homecoming. Having a king was probably the most talked about change. "I think it w_as good that we had a king because we were the only school that didn't have one," said senior Tyler Mandarich. A new tradition was also started at the carnival; live student bands performed in the courtyard. On Oct. 28, there was a Halloween party and bonfire. There were many activities including games, a dance, the limbo and costume contest. The winners of the contest were the Brady sisters, better known as juniors Cori Zarek, Jessi Underwood and Laurie . White. "Jessi thought of the idea. I thought it was cool, everybody really liked it," said Zarek. Throughout the year Student Council sold Yellowjackets for a fundraiser. There was a raffle at a pep assembly in which students bought tickets for a dollar. If their name was drawn they shot a basket, if they made itthey got one of the Yellowjackets. Senior J.J Poole who had previously broken two backboards slam dunking was chosen to shoot. He had to go to the locker room to change his shoes. "It was really cool to see someone from our school dunk," said senior Andy McAtee. Another fundraiser that the Student Council had was the money booth. Students paid fifty cents for a chance to get in the booth with money flying all around. The pep assembly that the money booth was at had been canclled three times due to the weather. However, it was worth it to the lucky students whose names were picked. "I'm glad I bought a ticket because I got twenty dollars out of it, that was pretty cool," said sophomore Nick Sorenson. To fi nish the year out, Student Council changed the whole election process for next year. Instead of everyone voting, students Junior Eric Hillerson gives his speech to the registered voters fo r the Student Council elections. Photo by Brad Harbold. were required to register. Registration took place during lunch the week before elections. Mayor Tom Hanafan, Superintendent Richard Christie and Officer Rob Kennedy helped out. The candidates were required to campaign, give reasons they would make a good member, give a speech and have teacher recommendations. "I think it wa better that we had to give speeches because, the students got to hear our ideas and vote based on what they heard," said junior Lindsey Konecny.

Along with the old traditions came many new changes. Some festivities included were the pep assembly, carnival, parade, game and dance. The royalty was announced at the dance instead of at the game this year. To start a new tradition a king was crowned as well as the queen. The Homecoming queen was Kristin Vogt and the first king was Chris LaFerla. " I was externally excited! I think it's great representation for the Fine Arts Department, a lot of times we don't get the recognition we work really hard for. It was neat that both Chris and I are involved in the Arts.

Homecoming week was celebrated by dressing to a theme each day of the week. Monday- hat day, Tuesday- clash day, Wednesday- switch day, Thursday- hippie day, Friday- spirit day. In hopes of getting more people to participate, Student Council gave a spirit flag to the class with the most spirit. The freshmen class won the flag at the pep assembly and paraded it proudly at the football game. Due to the fact Homecoming was early, there was only a couple of weeks to plan everything. "Considering the amount of time we had to prepare the student council did a marvelous job of making it all come together," said student council adviser, Paul Hans. There were many things to do at the Carnival, from throwing a pie in a fellow students face, to listening to a band in the courtyard. The theme of the dance was An Evening In Paris. The dance was Saturday Sept. 16. There was a great turn out for the dance. " I think that there were a lot more people this year at the dance because everyone was anxious to see who would be crowned," said senior Carrie Nelson. orking for the World .. ASTRA and NHS take an active roll in the community By Bill Young ASTRA won the Altrusa International Recognition Award. Third place was awarded to the club. The award was presented at the meeting in New Zealand. The award was given to the club that devotes the most time and dedication to their community. President Olivia Vargas said, " It feels good to be part of a group that's making its mark world wide." Among the many activities ASTRA helped throw a party for the children at Jenny's House. Here they helped the children paint their faces and played musical chairs. Also the club helped clean up the school's parking lot and the surrounding grounds. One of the continuing activities that ASTRA did was Up With Families. The members devoted one Saturday to help entertain the siblings of disabled children while their parents attended a peace weekend. Senior Brad Harbold said, "My favorite part of Up With Families was when 300 kids tried to drown me in the pool." The club's sponsors were Librarian Virginia Cantrel and journalism teacher Deb Goodman. The new year for National Honor Society brought a new face to the group. Science teacher Jim McKay took over as the sponsor. Also with the new year brought a higher standard for the inductees. The GP A requirement was raised to 3.8. The other requirements included community service and good recommendations from peers and teachers. NHS activities included a recycling project in the school, blood drives with the Red Cross and helping the Earth Angels with the Toxic Clean Up Day.

RESHME FavorTeams By Kylene Kermoade & Stephani Maron Z'oes five years of freshmen teams equal success? According to science teacher Brooks Schild, "The teams have been great! They allow more group work and were able to have interdisciplinary units. They also decreased the drop-out rate for freshmen, which is what was intended five years ago." The students viewed things a little differently, 56 % of the freshmen students said the teams were beneficial to them. On the other hand, 38% disliked them. Freshman Jonas Bose agreed with the idea of block classes. Bose said, "I like them because you are around a lot of your peers and also you get used to the school and what you have to do without just learning on your own." Freshman Cherie Wooley disagreed. Wooley said, " I don't like having freshmen teams because I feel it isolates the freshmen from the upperclassmen. I think we should be able to have as much freedom as the other students." Other freshmen had mixed feelings. Freshman DeLinda Long said, " I feel that they are treating us like children, but the teams do keep all of us together." "Teams are nice because you can go on field trips," said freshman Eric Erskins. The teams were able to take trips without interfering with a bunch of classes at a time. The Force team took a trip to the Waterworks, the Sewage Plant and Hitchcock Park. The Frosh team combined some trips with the units they were working on. When they were learning how to filter debris from water they also went to the Waterworks. The Sting team did their PBA (Performance Based Assessments) using a field trip. They went to the cemetery and studied different families. They also went to Hitchcock Park, the Old Market and bowling. The teams traveled to the Mall of the Bluffs to see the movieJumanji as a group reward.

That is how senior drum majors Kristin Vogt and Mark Fienhold started the band. Band took third at Victory 1995. They also took second at - River City round up and Glenwood. At state they received a one rating in their division. Junior Jamie Phillips said, 11 When we found out that we took second at Glenwood we were all so happy that we started to cry. 11 Vogt received the best drum major award at Glenwood. Vogt said, 11 The fine arts are my life. Music is something universal. You can be any age and be part of it and enjoy it. It's my way to communicate and I will be involved with it for the rest of my life. I'm glad I was a part of it in high school. 11 Band set out to do their best and they did. They always came back with some kind of award. The band had an addition to their group, the Color Guard. Because the Color Guard was so new, they didn't have a sponsor until the end of the season. Junior Co-captain, Jami Lobendo said, 11 I think we worked really hard, and I'm really glad I was a member. 11 Senior, Olivia Vargas said 11 I think we did really well considering we didn't have a sponsor and even though we were criticized we stuck through it to make a good group. 11 Freshman Erin Hilton said, 11 What I liked about Color Guard is that we had the opportunity to go out with the band and perform during football games. We also marched in parades and at competition. 11 Color Guard was also to perform during the winter season. Due to conflicts, the girls were not allowed to finish their season into the winter months.

'' ixth Tillle Is The Charm Choir Recieves a 1 Rating at State By Jennifer Baker 7wo, four, six years and finally a one. The choir department performed at Griswold, Iowa and the Jefferson Edition (J.E.) received a one rating for the first time in six years. Also the choir department received first place at the Bellevue East Conference. The students were very proud of placing first for the first time in a long time. Some students were proud of the J.E. even though they weren't in it. Junior April Hemmelsher said, "I am proud because we got a one in Contest and it hasn't happened for a long time since I have been here." Choir teacher Jerry Gray said, "They are a hundred percent improved, I got better at what I did, and I also started to understand High School music again." Mr. Gray also added that the quality was better, the attitudes have changed, and everyone is more positive. Choir is not just singing. Junior Jackie Gardner said, "I've learned so much about music from Mr. Gray, about how 60% of it's in your mind and all that, it's really true." Gardner also added that you experience a sense of accomplishment, like when you finally get that one song you couldn't get forever, and it turns out to sound so good no one can believe that you _?id it. Senior Courtney Zinger said since she has been in choir she has met a lot of new people. Zinger also started to become more involved in the school since she has met more people and become friends with a variety of people. Zinger summed it all up by saying, "It is a great experience if you want to met a lot of people both upper and under class men, and it is fun if you are serious about singing."

The class went to visit Fermilab near Chicago, Illinois. Members of the class fund-raised for the trip. Students flew out of Omaha's Epply airfield Thursday, April 11. After landing in Chicago, the class picked up rental vans. With a few of Mr. Hale's Biology students they toured the science museum near the downtown area. The class also played the tourist a bit and saw other sights in the downtown area, such as Hard Rock Cafe, Sears Tower and Michael Jordan's restaurant. Junior Diane Frazier said, "We went to the I-Max theater. Planetarium I-Max theater is a five story, dome shaped theater in 3-D. It's rounded to give the viewer the feel of moving when staying perfectly still." Senior Shelly Smith said," We got Lincoln heads, it is a mold of President Lincoln's head," Smith also told of her experience of the first time she ever tried pickle gum. It was on her nip with the ph sics class. For some of the students there was only a few words they could say about the trip. Senior Jason Crane said, "It was pretty cool and I learned a lot about Chicago, it was pretty cool and it was a lot of fun. " Frazier said that the traffic was awful and the food was expensive. Frazier also said, "Don't eat at Planet Hollywood unless you expect to pay out your nose.Literally." A staff physicist came to visit with the students to discuss much of the research going on at the facility. The students also visited the Lederman Science Center on the Fermilab campus, with hands-on activities to illustrate the work that goes on at Fermilab. "The trip went well. Students got to see first-hand how knowledge gained in the classroom~ used out there in the real-world," said physics teacher Ten-y Todd. By Kari Foster ?ltany changes came about in the cheer program. New cheers, new sideline dances, and a new dance to the school song. All of these changes came from the new coaches that came in the middle of football season. "It was time to make changes and get our program more updated, the new coaches have been very effective," said sponsor Joyce Schaefer. The coaches were college students from UNO. "Cheerleading was a whole new experience this year, it was fun learning how to build and it put us at a whole new level," said varsity member Kristy Miller. Freshman Nikki LaFerla said, "I can't say I looked forward to 6 a.m. practices three times a week, but they definitely paid off." Cheerleading tryouts were held March 23. "Tryouts were more difficult because of the changes in the program and the level of the routines were more updated than years past," said Mrs. Schaefer. The Porn Pon squad had many new members including freshmen. This was the first and last year for freshmen members according to sponsor Joyce Schaefer. The pommers held their annual dance clinic on Jan. 20.

Three seniors, Carrie Nelson, Matt Arnett and Brad Harbold attended journalism camp July 16-21 at University oflowa. The reason for attending the camp was to learn more about computers. While there they learned computer skills and computer language. "We didn't learn a whole lot there but it was great being a minority since there was one guy to every six girls . We had fun looking at all the girls," said Harbold. Arnett also added that , "Computers are the work of the devil" after spending hours on the computers. "We went to a toga party and we kept looking for John B~lushi to jump out some where and crush a can on his head , or something like that," Harbold added. One bad incident for Harbold and Arnett was when they broke a window and they had to pay approximately $244 each for the window. Camp was a peculiar experience for Nelson. After a couple of days she learned that the place she was staying was haunted. A long time ago three girls got killed there. "It was pretty freaky," said Nelson. With all the wealth of knowledge that they gained both publications took on a new look. "I feel the book will have more unique graphics because of all we learned," said Arnett. The newspaper also changed its looks. The staff no longer had to paste up their pages. "We worked with Mr. White in the print shop and used his laser printer so the pages came in one sheet,"said Nelson. "It was much easier and quicker to send it to Mr. White's room, and it would help out a lot if more people went to camp," Nelson added.

"Brigadoon" was delayed because of snow and to top it off a cast member was suspended, therefore teacher John Gibson played that role. Mr. Gibson said, "It felt exhilarating, embarrassing, an honor to preform with my students, nerve racking, fun, after it was done I felt good about it and able to accept it." It was Mr. Gibson's first time and probably last time. He said he will never do it again, until next time.

"Getting people motivated and realizing, four days until we opened that we were still using scripts," was a worry for senior Kristin Vogt. Junior Dylan Peck said the Scottish accent was his major problem. Peck listened to speech coaches and took it from there to help him with the accent problems. Kilts?

This one game, however, did not set the tone fo r the season as the • Jackets finished their first season in the newl y formed Ri ver Citie ' Conference with a record of 2-7. Head coach Dan Strutzenburg, in his second year as head coach, commented on the season by saying," I felt that the whole team did a good job at improving as a whole. The offense made great stride to improve as a whole and the defense played very well and stopped th the opposing team at some key times, especi ally in the St. Albe11 game." Not only did the losing streak end, the Jackets also set a new re ord as senior Casey McGrain became the first Yellow jacket quarter-bac ' to pass for over a 1,000 yards, with a ground breaking 1,01 8. "I realized during the last game against Sioux City East that I was only 19 yards away from getting a 1,000 yards passing. Every ball that I threw made my heart stop until it was caught," said McGrain. "McGrain had experienced recievers and a predomi nant! senior offensive line to thank for the mile stone," commented Coach Strutzenburg. Coach Strutzenburg added ," I was especiall y happy with the offensive line consisting of seniors Andy Ryba, Jake Bittner, Bill Gre , Nick Gardner and Matt Arnett for giving McGrain the extra time that he needed.'' "It was a building year for our program, the coaches look forward to next season ," said coach Strutzenburg. VARSITY front: Andy Mcatee, MattAmett, August Manz.

The camp featur d Kelli Aspergan an All- American from the University of Lincoln. "It was really hot, we did a lot of drills, but after all it paid off," said sophomore Kylene Kermoade. "The drills that we went through really helped us out for our season," said sophomore Kelli Foster. This was shown through the number two ranking the team held most of the season. "The highlight of the season was when the teambeat the number two ranked team Iowa Falls in the Knoxville tournament," said sophomore Annie Hensley. The season started out with a triangular between Treynor and crosstown rivals Abraham Lincoln. "We came out pumped up and it really paid off," said junior Melissa Rocha. Even though in mid -season there were three people out due to injuries there were others who moved up to step in for them. Those injured included senior Courtenay Higganbotham,junior Laurie White and sophomore April Slack. The end of the season was big for the players and coaches. The team played AL in the district opener. "We were really excited, we wanted to up set their chance to go to state," said junior Laurie White. "We did not give the game to them, the girls came out and made them earn it, we had a great season," said Coach Mike Bond.

Everyone worked together and many improved their health, speed, endurance and overall self-esteem. Freshman Harvey Coble said, "I am doing better than I expected, but it comes natural to me because I have done a lot of running and I enjoy it. I believe that if you don't enjoy doing something then you do worse than you would if you enjoy it." Coble was an outstanding runner for the team. His goal was to place every race he competed in, and he did just that. Coach Doug Muehlig said,"I only want the best out of each runner, and if possible, an improvement from every runner." Mr. Muehlig went on to say that out of the 12 boys and 10 girls he is impressed with the teamwork and effort the team put forth. Both the boys' and girls' team earned the Academic award, for their outstanding GPA . Sophomore Katie Hunt said, "I thought it was a lot of fun, and now I run much better. I not only benefited physically, but also mentally." Sophomore Danielle Eggett said, "I thought the season went well, until I pulled the ligaments in my knee."

In the match against Omaha Bryan they were very competitive with Ben Faga leading in points, but they couldn't pull it off with the score 4 to 5 Omaha Bryan. The tennis team had one victory over Omaha South with the score of 9-0. Other Fall sports were girls' golf and boys' golf. Senior Nikki Allen said, "We may not have won any games, but we had a lot of fun ." The girls' golf team started the season with 18 girls and ended with 15 girls. They were able to have a Varsity as well as a Junior Varsity team. The team placed seventh in the Abraham Lincoln Invitational. "I had a really enjoyable season working with this great bunch of kids," said Coach Wayne Mains. "I think that Coach Mains did a great job in coaching the team and encouraging the players," said senior Shelly Smith. The boys' golf team didn ' t have many tournaments, because the team used the fall season as a warm up for the spring season.

If so, there are many opportunities available. In the auto shop class you learn to restore a car, and about many of the parts. The auto shop fully restored a 65' Ford Fairlane. The car was entered in a contest at Southeast Polk. The car was originally purchased for $150. After the car was restored there was a sealed bidding for a minimum of $1500. Carpentry is another career option. The woodshop taught skills for carpentry and architecture. The student in this class made things such as clocks, boxes, country shelves and a model house. N o t only did they build these items , they also designed them. Junior Shawn J ensen said," Takin g this class will help you prepare for the future if you plan to go into a field of constructio n or architecture. It's a class for the individual worker." In P.E. when you lifted weights, did you take time to look at the racks and equipment? The power welding shop built and repaired these things. Also, they repaired several items for the school dist1ict. One of the largest projects they did was build and design a hydraulic log splitter. The print shop entered a piece of their work into a contest in Nebraska. They brought home a bronze award. "It's a very hard competition, because we go against colleges, and we're just a high school with limited resources. I'm very proud of what we've done," said instructor Dave White. Almost everywhere you go there is electricity. In order to make the electricity work you have to have someone who knows how to work with it. In the metal tech class they learned basic electronic skills and also how to build many things out of metal. A basic industrial tech class was also offered. Students learned va1ious skills including some on the computer. Sophomore Kane Kuhn had only one comment. "Mr. Godfrey rules!" ress By Amie Groat eadlines ! Papers! Graduation! These are just a few things that stress students and faculty out around school. Stress is a common mental tension found everyday. But what is not common is the way they are relieving stress. Students relieve stress by spending time with friends, sleeping and beating up or yelling at other people. Junior Jodie Ziegler said, "I relieve stress by watching movies with my boyfriend Corey . " Watching movies and spending time with friends is the way a lot of students relieve their stress. Counselor Nancy Hale said, "I relieve stress by sitting back and thinking about what is really important." Having time to think about things really does help but most people don't have enough time. Other students may choose a violent way to deal with stress. Senior Traci Hamilton said, "When I am stressed out I hit my brother." Violent ways aren't always the answer but it does make you feel better. Freshman Amber Groat said, "When I am Jason Addison Misty Albertson Jamie Aldredge Joshua Aldredge Chris Andrews Terri Ashley Amanda Baker Joshua Baker Nikki Baker Enjoli Barksdale Jason Barlow Samuel Barta Rochelle Barth Brandie Bates Carrie Baxter Shawn Beu William Biede Jessica Birk Jessica Bittner Dina Black Randi Blakeman stressed I yell at everyone and blame it on them." This is very common to blame your stress on everyone else instead of dealing with it. Groat said, "I don't mean to blame it on everyone its just normally my first instinct to yell at everyone." There are still those people who just relax after a stressful day. Teacher Sam Martinez said, "I just sit back with a cup of coffee." Just to sit back and relax is always another good way to relieve stress, but a lot of people just don't have the ti me. Yettherearealways the students who either do not have stress or do not deal with it. Senior Jessi Fritz said, "I just try to forget about everything that is bothering me and go to sleep." There are still students who still don't know how to relieve stress. Mrs. Hale's advice is, "Maintain good relationships with people, and focus on what is really important." Sophomore David Young is about ready to pull his own head off as he sits in class. Stress conquers many students during the long days of school. Photo by Brad Harbold.

Seldom do we expect to enter into the "Twilight Zone". Junior Brandy Von Fumetti said, "I went out on a date with this guy, I had the worst time. We went out to dinner and he acted like he didn't want to be with me. Later that night we went to Snoball, I thought he wouldn't act like such a jerk, but, I was wrong. During the last song he went off and danced with another girl. I was really embarrassed because everyone was coming up to me and telling me my date was dancing with someone else, like I didn't know." Senior Tisha Davis said, "We went out to dinner and I was having a great time, when we went up to go pay our bill he got out his check book and they said that they did not take checks so I had to dig up enough money to pay our bill and it was not actually cheap.

Freshman Kami Hammond said,"We went to a party and when we were getting ready to leave his car would not start so we were stuck out in the cold with no ride home." Junior Jami Lobendo said,"We went to a dance and he was much taller then me so it looked really weird when we danced, and everyone was making comments about how strange we looked." "Hey baby!

Too late for breakfast you pour a glass of milk, YUCK, it's sour! You finally make it out the door to your car, that won't start. Just a bad day or is it bad luck? Junior Colleen Stanford says," When bad things happen to you it's bad luck, just like when good things happen it's good luck." Others would disagree. Sophomore Kelly Foster said, "I don't believe in bad luck , whatever happens to you just happens." "There's no great power that controls luck and there is no such thing as an unlucky person. You control your own destiny," said teacher Brooks Schild. "There's no such thing as luck, but there is a medieval Satan worshiper named Gi Gi chasing us all around trying to do us all in," says senior Lucus Hennings. Those who believe in bad luck have some different explanations for why people get it. "When I have bad luck it's because of all the mirrors Ky lene Kermoade Laura Kier Angela Kim Michelle King Derike Kinzie Leslie Knecht Jeremiah Knutson Julie Koenig Kristina Korte Lance Kramer Kane Kuhn Jeremiah Landon Micheal Lane Julia Larison Sarah Larson Alexandra LeGuillou Kristie Lewis Stephen Lewis April Lindberg Jose Lopez Shad Mahanke I've broken," said sophomore Troy McAtee. For some people bad luck is part of their everyday life. They seem to fall into it everywhere they go and everything they do.Junior Lindsey Konecny said," Bad luck seems to follow me , I can't get away from it. In two weeks, three cars I drove broke down. Two were wrecked and the other one's power steering went out. The only good thing was that I wasn't in any of the cars." Bad luck can be something that catches you off guard. Sometimes it happens right out of the blue without warning. Sophomore Jessica Bittner said, "I just poured a bowl of cereal when my dog ran in front of me and knocked me over. It was right by my stairs and I fell down them. I had cereal and bruises all over me." Even if you have bad luck, remember that luck goes both ways, maybe you'll run into some good luck. Junior Lindsey Konecony looks at her third wrecked car in two weeks. She hopes that her string of bad luck is over or is close to being over. Photo by Brad Harbold.

By Jennifer Baker and Heidi Redmond eople have a lot of time on their hands, but there are those people that only have time to eat, sleep and work. That is the average plan of some students. Notice how you never have the time to play or just read a book? Well junior Jackie Gardner said, "My 'free' time is really my 'nothing' time, where I just layup in my room and listen to music or whatever." Most students work and don't have much free time at all. You would think a teen has time to have fun on the weekend, but they don't. Most teens work on the weekends to earn extra money. Gardner said that she works on Friday and Saturday nights and sometimes Sunday afternoon. During the weekend some people think about others and volunteer their time to helping others.

No matter what you do in your free time the on 1 y thing that really matters is that you are having fun at whatever you are doing. For some students freetime is a time of relaxation or practicing the sports that they enjoy. Senior Courtney Zinger said," I like to spend time practicing some new softball techniques." Senior Jeremy Meyer likes to spend his freetime teaching karate classes. So no matter how you spend your freetime just remember it is your own time of relaxation .

Well here there are a lot of "books" that haven't been opened. It seems that people were judged everyday by others who didn't even know them. Sophomore April Slack said, " People think that I'm a snob just because I'm a cheerleader." Many stereotypes are passed upon people in activities, clubs or sports. Sophomore Brian Clark said, " Just because I was in Ironmen kids thought I took steroids, and I didn't." Students aren't the only victims of judgement; teachers are victimized too. History teacher John McKinley said, "I think most teachers are stereotyped as being boring and not doing anything interesting outside of school." Freshman Tony Jordan had a lot to say. "I was in a class with all upperclassmen and since I was a freshman, everybody thought I was dumb when I actually had better grades than them." There are always two sides to every story. Junior Andy Siverston April Slack Adam Smith Jeremy Smith Mark Smith Summer Smith Shane Snipes Malissa Snyder Josh Sorensen Nick Sorenson Valerine Sparvell Nick Stahl necker Rachael Steinke Heather Steskal Jamie Story James Stouder Dan Strietbeck Kevin Stuhr Brenda Sturm Randall Surbeck Autumn Tackett Nate Marr said, "When you see some dude walking all bad with his hat on backwards, you assume he's a gangster wanna-be, when he could just be some dork wandering around without a clue. I try not to stereotype people, but sometimes it's hard to resist." Jordan went on to say," That comment right there pretty much explains stereotypes. Ignorant people labeling someone before they stop to check out what the person is really like." Not all students think that they are labeled. Junior Heidi Redmond said, "I don't thjnk that I stand out that much. People don't judge me because I don't judge other people." "Just think of all the interesting people that could have been discovered if we just gave them a chance," Redmond also commented.

"I asked Jessi to cover me while I walked across the store, but she walked real fast so I was stuck walking across, holding the dress up . and everyone in the whole store was watching me. It was the worst," said Vargas. There were many reasons students didn' t attend the dance some of them were work, no date, no money and some students just didn't want to go. Senior Matt Arnett said, "I had to work that night but I wasn' t going to go anyway" . " I went to a Christmas party instead," said junior Jamie Phillips. Approximately 350 students attended the dance. "Student Council did a wonderful job planning and decorating for the dance.

"I spent $175 on a balloon bouquet for my girlfriend that I designed by myself. It looked like a hot air balloon," said Kris Shannon. Some people just bought valentines for all of their friends, bringing back the elementary school tradition. Others just couldn't seem to get into the spirit. ?reshmen Heather Selin and Heather Driver take a spin out on the dance floor. Photo by Ryan Wood.

It gives you a chance to become a character and re-enter a 5- year-old's world of witches and talking animals." This was a play that anyone could go see no matter what age they are. It was a play that kept one interested during the entire performance. ~ow do you feel about ~languages?

By Matt Erickson ~at do you think of when you think of foreign languages? Probably just another boring class you really don't care about. Well it's not, they actually do things. For example the French class went on their eighth annual French dinner . In the past, they have been held at The French Cafe, The Omaha Club and V Mertz. French instructor LaRue Martinez said, "I like teaching French because I'm constantly learning new things and I like helping students at such an exciting time in their lives. " Freshman Melissa Uhl said, " I like French because it teaches me about a new culture and a new language." In Spanish they explored a whole new realm in studying the language of our native friends. Although Verla Mohn was not with us during the school year Mr. Joungman proved to be a capable replacement. Sam Martinez also taught some sections of Spanish. In his classes Mr. Martinez stressed the verbal content as well as the written work. He had daily practice to help the students master the language. Mr. Joungman has been a teacher for over 20 years and came here in mid-November. "The students here are very nice and honest, I haven't seen as much cheating here as I have seen at other schools," said Mr. Joungman. Sophomore Ryan Woods said, "It's fun learning a new language it's something different." In Russian class they worked on studying the language of funny letters and numbers . They also worked on how to speak the language. Irena Abramova was the teacher of the Russian class. Ms. Abarmova was only here for one year and returned to Russia at the end of the school year. "I'm having a great year so far," she commented. Senior Carissa Hayes said, "Russian is great." 1fJhy do high school students "Because of state budget cuts, we are forced to create revenue for the school by fundraising.

By Kylene Kermoade & St ephani Maron 7he F- word. If you want to participate in anything you will do it. Fundraising. Different organizations do different things to raise money. The money they raise goes towards various causes. Some fundraise for trips, charity, or to put back into their own spending fund. Business prep teacher Julie O'Doherty fundraised for a trip to Phoenix to attend a National Business Professionals of America student conference. A class of 13 students sold candy and holiday novelties to raise money for their tiip. Student Council members also have continued to fundraise. Some of their money makers included the selling of stuffed Y ellowjackets, the Homecoming and Snoball dances, the Homecoming Carnival and the money booth. Members voted on where the money should be spent. Student Council sponsor Paul Hans said, 11 Because of state budget cuts, we are forced to create revenue for the school by fundraising. 11 The boy's basketball teams fundraised by holding a pancake feed . The freshman, j unior varsity and varsity teams then scrimmaged against each other. The money they raised went to their traveling fund. Out of goodwill, $250 was collected by students for the CB Public Library, then it was matched by ASTRA to equal $500. Bluffs Run Casino also matched the $500 donation to make it $1000. This money was then donated for the new library. ASTRA also sold carnations on V alentine's Day. Senior Oli via Vargas sai d, 11 It's great that we fundraise to h elp the community. It ge ts the whole school involved in improving our image." The sc i ence department filled the stomaches of students and faculty every morning selling muffins, donuts and orange juice. Students and faculty also worked tog ether at Hy-Vee to raise money. These funds went to a scie nce trip to Chicago. Money left over went to a sc holarship fund. Fundraising is a part of everyone 's high school life. Whether one's buying or selling they are part of the fundra ising activity.

" Sleeping in the cabin was the best, 11 said student Sarah Talbott. For some associates and teachers camp was a new experience. " We had an absolute great time, everything went really smooth and the kids did a great job, 11 said teacher Donna Mott. "It was a great experience, I had a good time, it was good for the students and I survived, " said history teacher Don Hansen. rain Teams Broaden Base O.M To State, Brain Bowl Competes by Tony Palmer Building a bridge to support weight, solving a major problem with just two minutes to come up with a solution, and conducting a skit to show a way to solve a world problem. That's what faced the Odyssey of the Mind team. The team went on to state for the second year in a row, after an impressive showing at regional competition. "I'm very proud of the group for their teamwork and effort," said Coach Al Hudek. The team worked hard in preparation for their trip to state.They practiced every Tuesday, Thursday and some weekends. "We put in a lot of time into preparation and details. The team even met on weekends for two or three hours," said freshman Jennifer Maron. The team finished 10th in the state in the crunch competition, 7th in spontaneous and 5th in skit. "I really enjoyed performing our skit. It gave me a chance to play my violin, it was fun and brought out the team's creativity, " said junior Dan Riley. At the end of the year the senior team members found that they would miss competing more than they thought. "Odyssey of the Mind was a real challenge, and now that I'm going on to college I realize how much I'll miss i , " said senior Aaron Baxter. Tee Jay's Brain Bowl team participated in the Peru State competition on April 1 and the Bellevue University competition on March 1. The team placed sixth out of 24 teams, from all over eastern Nebraska and western Iowa, at Bellevue. "We've got a good team this year, but we're losing a lot of seniors . We need to do a lot of recruiting for next year," said Coach Hans. Senior Mark Fienhold sets up a prop the team would later use in the O.M. skit competition. Photo by Brad Harbold.

Senior's like this class so much because it gave them a chance to get out of school early and still get credits for it. " I like the class because it get's me out early," said senior Tyler Mandarich. The class was in a big demand that they had to split the class into two. Wayne Mains and Tom Vincent were the teachers of the two classes." My class worked very well this year. I feel they accomplished a lot, and learned a lot as well," said Mr. Mains. The class taught students a lot about the reality of the real world and the facts there are about working in the real world. "My class was really fun. The teachers were really nice. They made sure that everybody got to know everybody really well," said senior Robert Meyers. There was yet another class that required certain abilities and certain feelings for the work. This class was The Society Of Engineering. The class is taught to teach students about engineering and certain parts of this field of the work world. Al Hudak was the person teaching the class. " I think my students did very well. They did a very good job," said Mr. Hudak. The students were taught how to build architectures. The students were to build a sculpture of a building. " All of us decided to make a model of the school. We thought it would be appropriate since we are in school and all, " said senior Shannon Walters. The students were to build the model and then place it in a contest with several schools." We didn't win but we did very well we thought," said sophomore Luke Gutzwiller.

One of the major projects that the Deca class did the happy pack, which is a coupon book. "The Beehive is a lab to the students of the Deca, "said sponsor Gary Bannick. The Beehive was to try to teach them marketing skills. The year of 1996 marked the 50th year nation wide for the Deca program. Two students won the honor to compete at Nationals in Orlando. They were senior John Cahill and junior Tom Elliff. Not only was Deca active, BP A (Business Professionals Of America) was active. Heather Davids said, "I have a lot of fun in BPA class." "The highlight of our year was meeting other students, and making new friends at competitions. We have also made it to the national competitions in Phoenix, Arizona on May 1-5. Over 7,000 students from all over the United States were there," said sponsor Julie O'Doherty. Thirteen students went to Des Moines on Feb. 25-27. Some of the people that won were senior Misty Lewis who got 1st place in computer aided graphics and 1st place in desktop publishing, senior Jerry Vincent got 7th place on Banking Concepts. Senior Carrie Bluxome received 8th place in Desktop Publishing and 10th place in Computer Aided Graphics, senior Jody Ondracek received 10th place in Office Specialist.

" ompeting and Conserving Ac Dec Goes To State, Angels Created Recycling Program By Sonya Fisher 1Uhile many students were enjoying their summer, the Academic Decathlon team was at school preparing for their future competitions. Academic Decathlon was a nation wide competition that involved 10 tests in ten areas. The tests included science, math, fine arts, language arts/literature, economics, essay, speech, interview, social sciences and super quiz. Unless one enjoyed taking tests, they might wonder why being involved in Academic Decathlon was so fun. According to senior Greg Valyer, " It's just fun studying all that cool stuff. I'll never forget our trip to Minneapolis my junior year, we stayed at a really big, really fancy hotel that had a mini mall in it." "Ac Dec filled up all my free time, but it helped me prepare for college and develop a work ethic," Valyer said. Earth Angels was an environmental group. They ran activities such as the TJ vs. AL canned food drive, school clean ups and city wide Earth Day elementary art competitions. "All of the earth angel members worked hard during the year trying to clean-up the local area while keeping the environmentalist outlook as prominent in school as possible," said junior Dan Riley. Earth Angels collected and recycled paper most of the year. "Earth Angels was a great experience because it made me realize how important it is to do your part in keeping the earth clean," said senior Ramanda McDaniel. One of the many things that Earth Angels does is take care of the recycling cans, as demonstrated by junior Dan Riley. Photo by Deb Goodman.

" azz Band, Orchestra Create Challenges Coffee Shop Opened To Showcase Talent By Sonya Fisher Bringing in something new was one of Orchestra's biggest goals. Frequenting the coffee shops was very popular among the students, so Orchestra decided to bring the coffee shops to the students. During the evening of Nov. 20 the Orchestra students took the coffee shop to the cafeteria. The evening featured The Monticello strings, jazz band, songs and dance talent. Orchestra teacher Brenda Copeland said,"This year has been a very good year all around the students are putting forth all of their effort to make the year a good year." Junior Jami Reid said,"! think that Orchestra has been a big challange, I really enjoy being with all of the students that are in Orchestra." On Feb. 29 the Orchestra, and a few of the band members spent the day at Abraham Lincoln High school to prepare for the All-City concert. Freshman Spring Madsen said,"! thought that being with theA.L. students would be a really bad experience, but A.L. turned out to be very fun and they were really nice and polite." The Jazz Band included 19 selected members of the band. The Jazz band took third place in the Bluffs Jazz Festival. Senior Jeff Ketcham said,"The year went by very well, like in everything else you have those that drop out, and you have ones that stay with it, we found that out this year."

That's how head coach Colin Smith characterizes basketball. "There were times this season when we played like a team but there were other times that we didn't," said Coach Smith. Finishing with a record of 6-15, the team had their share of ups and downs. The team's first and most exciting win came against Roncalli in the River Cities Conference Tournament. Junior Tommy Parrack's 3-pointer with just two seconds left, lifted the Jackets past the Pride 83-80. "I got the in-bound and threw up a shot, it was the greatest feeling when it went in," said Pairack. The team got a lot of leadership from Parrack, who led the conference in scoring. Senior Matt Lippert also stepped up and made his presence felt on the court. "I was proud of the leadership Lippert displayed on the court, he kept the team in the flow," said Coach Smith. The Jackets headed into district play on a high note after defeating Lewis Central 74-71, but luck wasn't on the team's side as they lost a hard fought game to Sioux City West in the first round. "I felt like the team was coming together, but it just wasn't meant to be," said Lippert. "I am optimistic about the development of the juniors and the program this year. The Jacket basketball program is on the way up," said Coach Smith. Junior Jerry Thomas goes strong to the basket against a Lewis Central defender. Photo by Brad Harbold.

Benson 60 Lewis Central 45 By Tammy Stuhr The New Conference was not all the girls' basketball team had to face, they also had a tough schedule. The girls faced two of the nationally ranked teams, Abraham Lincoln and Sioux City South. "It was really humiliating when we played them," said junior Silina Childers. The girls traveled to Sioux City South and were beaten by 98 points. During the season the girls played Lewis Central they lost to them by 30 points but on Feb. 15 they faced off with them again and cut there loss, to only be beaten by 9 points. "The girls really improved since the beginning of the season. We had a lot of girls who really didn't care, but at the end of the season they really buckled down and played their kind of the game,"said Assistant Coach Raffel York. The season was played with injuries. Sophomore Annie Hensley was down with shin splints, sophomore Andrea Burns with a sprained ankle, senior Megan Korte sprained an ankle and senior Brandi Lambrecht had a shoulder injury. "The highlight of the season was probably when we defeated Malvern," said Lambrecht.

Kuemper Win Loss Win Loss Win Loss Numbers By Brandie Jacoby At the beginning of the season numbers were low for th wrestling team. As the season went on wrestlers were dropping one by one. Injuries were the number one opponent for the season. Coach Mike Witt was frustrated with not being able to fill all the weight 1 classes. The team lost meets due to forfeits. Many underclassmen had to step up and fill the roster for th varsity squad. "I liked wrestling varsity because it gave me better competition. I wasn't nervous because I have been wrestling all my life," said freshman Nick Blanchard. The dual record was 3-10. The grapplers lost several matches b a small margin of points. Tournaments did not fair well for the team because of the small numbers. Districts were held at A.L. Witt was pleased with the wrestler performance even though we had only one champion and state qualifier. Senior Corey Childers (160) placed sixth ; sophomore Mark Smith (119) took fifth . Senior Chad Childers (152), j unior C'Sea.n Witt (189) and freshman Nick Blanchard (103) fi nished fourth. Senior August Manz was the lone champion advancing to th state tournament in Des Moines. He was disappointed with his two losses at state but was happy to make it to the tournament. Junior Larry Wajda broke the fastest pin record on a match against Missouri Valley. He pinned his opponent in 12 econd . , "I was very excited after I pinned my man. I didn 't even believe · how fast the pin was, I was just happy to get the pin," said Wajda.

Nguyen lifts weights every day for at least one hour to keep in shape. "Being in Ironman is a good way to get fit. The only thing I don' t like about it is the muscle aches I get when I over do it. Other than that, it's a lot of fun." Nguyen added. Junior Crystal Cline said, "Strength begins with the mind. I can only bench 75 pounds right now, but I like the fact that I can lift in front of people without being criticized. The guys are good about that. They treat us just like they would any other member of Ironmen. " There were three girls in Ironmen this year. Cline said, "I don't think it's right to call it 'Ironmen ' when there are women on the team, but back when they began Ironmen I'm sure there were only men in it. It's still mostly men so I really don' t mind, but if they were to change it, maybe they could call it Iron Power." If you are considering building your biceps, these Ironmen, or should we say people, have a few tips . Hunt said, "Don' t expect to get big right away. Take your time working out. If you push your elf too hard too fast, you ' ll just end up hurting yourself! " Hunt added, "Steroids are not the way to go. Drugs limit your respiratory system and will eventually cause major damage to your whole body. Ju t say NO!" Cline said, "Start working out about five days a week and eventually you'll get the body you want, but don't expect drastic changes immediately because you 'II just be disappointed. You have to have patience to be a body builder." Unlike the Ironmen, the swim team had only one representative from T.J. That student was freshman Ryan Redding who finished the swim season with 62.5 total points.

Every four years they go to the Olympics to show the world what they do and how good they can do it. But every year in Council Bluffs a group of special kids with slight disabilities go to their very own Olympics , the Special Olympics. This was one of the most exciting Olympics that the students have seen in a long time. The students took first and second place in most of the events. Some of the first place winners were Jennifer Smith and Kelly Briggs in the softball throw. Adam Briggs, Ri chard May. and James Strode all took first place in their events. There were a lot of other ribbons won by the students. The students are already practicing for next years Olympics during free time and during their P.E. Class. Sophomore Rick Neumann said, "I can't wait until next year." Mens' volleyball was another group that competed during the year. Junior Danny Lamkins said" through leaky roofs and cold temperatures we played it through." Senior Toby Fisher said, "We had fun and it was a good year. We had a small team and it was very young." But by the end of the season the team had to forfeit the finals because only three out of thirteen players showed up for the finals. Due to a lack ofleadership and commitment by the team next year looks really bleak, said Coach Sharon Semler Junior Jason Mcintosh said" We had our ups and downs but we djd it."

By Stephani Maron and Kylene Kermoade 9or hundreds of years, people have experimented on thousands of different things. These experiments have led to discoveries and learning of ages to come. Science teachers were able to break the old tradition of classroom lectures with different experiments including dissecting, slime, bubbles and static electricity. Physics teacher Terry Todd taught his class about the effects of static electricity. His students put their hand on a ball which made their hair stand on end. Junior Eric Hillerson said, "I learned that like charges repel each other." When asked why experiments were better than lectures, the whole class answered, "experiments keep us awake." Zoology classes spent their last few months of school studying different organisms and ways of survival. These zoology classes dissected such animals as earthworms, crayfish, frogs and fetal pigs. Sophomore Natasha Williams said, "Dissecting is just plain gross. It smells really bad too. It's even worse when your partner won't help you!" The students studied various systems along with their dissecting units. Chemistry classes were kept alive by many experiments. One of them was the study of combining different chemicals to see the reaction. By adding two chemicals together, slime was formed. Not to much was to be said about this. Junior Lem Sheard said," Slime is cool." Bubbles added a lot of fun to the class. The classes learned about surface tension while examining bubbles. They looked for how large they could get and how they formed. Junior Marc Berry said," I think I want to major in Bubbleology." No matter what the experiment was, they all seemed to keep students awake and involved. ~ow do you like having l ~ -. //. ~ ~·~ -. ~ - . .? ong-term ~~ "It's hard on students when teachers leave for a long period of time, but I would rather have one substitute than a million different ones.

Photo by J e r eniy Maschmeier. _.,,~ J By Stephani Maron & Kylen.e Kermoade VV'hat's it like to walk into a classroom and not recognize the teacher? Students in various classes were faced with this problem, as many substitute teachers replaced the old ones. Many teachers were replaced long term. Since the first day of school, Dean Joungman substituted in the Spanish classroom for Verla Mohn. Due to illness, Ms. Mohn was out for the year. Mr. Joungman said," I enjoy long term subbing! I feel like I am fulfilling a need." Joe Schik came to finish off the year after English teacher Anita Eckley fell ill at the end of the first semester. Mr. Schik said," It's not bad teaching long term. It allows me to work with the students on a regular basis. It gives me a chance to watch the progress and learning that takes place over a long period of time. 11 Math teacher Gary Pogemiller took a two month leave of absence while having foot surgery. Kim Jones took over while he was gone. "I like long term subbing a lot better than substituting for one day. It gives me a chance to develop a relationship with the students, so I can actually teach. 11 It seemed like most substitutes enjoyed long term subbing, but student's opinions varied. Sophomore Amanda Baker said," It's hard on students when teachers leave for a long period of time, but I would rather have one sub then a million different ones." On the other hand, freshman Krissy Mandolfo said,11 I don't like them because they come in not knowing about the school or how things are taught, and then things get all mixed up." A trip to Russia left teacher John McKinley's classroom with a substitute teacher for the month he was gone. Mary Ann Hanusa covered his classes while he was gone. There were also substitutes coming in on just a dayto-day basis.These faces were seen ever where when teachers were sick or took personal days. ---------- - -- - --- - -- ,,... ---- - - Things That Make You Go By Toni Damgaard Jamie Adam · Scott Adams Lind. ay Aherns Kellie Aldmeyer Lindy Aleksiak Amy Anderson Robert Anderson Cesar Arredondo Amber Baker Jennifer Baker Jeff Barnhouse Stephanie Bazemoore Scott Beckman Martina Bell Wendy Belt Christina Benedict Marc Berry Jeff Bertelsen Kyle Bird Melissa Blanchard Sarah Blanchard Robert Boettger J.D.

The habit that annoys fre shman Lisa Goldsberry the most is when people pass gas and then laugh about it. Teacher Pat O'Doherty says, "The thing that irritates me to no end is when when students are late to class." A lot of times friends have very annoying habits, too. Senior Chris Lawrence says, "My friend Brad Wahl blinks and twitches too much and it drives me nuts!" Senior Jessi Fritz said her friend Kellie Oles talks way to much and way to loud and that's her bad habit. Senior Angela Brown said, "I flirt too much when I don't have a boyfriend, then I end up being called by dorks I really don't want to talk to. Unfortunatly, some of them don't get the picture and I have to get mean!Another problem I hav is that I never seem to have tb courage to go up to the ones I do like!" Journalis m teacher Deb Goodman said that three of her students bad habit was their use of four letter words.It got so b ad that she started to charge them a quarter for every bad word. Seniors Brad Harbold and Matt Arnett said," Our bad habit is that every hour is happy hour, and four letter words." Senior Amie Groa t and Mrs. Goodman both admit that they bite their nails habitually . Groat says, "We had a contest to see who could grow their nails the longest. The winner had to buy the loser a bottle of fingernail polish. I'm way too nervous all of the time to stop biting my nails, so of course I lost. " Most people hope they do lose ... ..............

We all have something of our own that we treasure the most. Prized possessions can be an object or just an important person in your life. Everyone has a different opinion when it comes to their most prized possession. It does not have to be a specific object that means a lot to you. It can be an important person in your life. Sophomore Michelle Ryan's most prized possession is her boyfriend. Ryan said,"! love my boyfriend very much". Junior Susan Mc Vey's most prized possession is her boyfriend. Mc Vey said, "My boyfriend is the most important thing in my life. He is really sweet to me and likes to spend time with me." To some people prized possessions are for sentimental reasons and price value . Geometry teacher Mark 1VIeyer said his most pri zed pos ession falls into both categories. Mr. Meyer said, "My boat cost me a lot of money but I also get a lot of enjoyment from it." Mr. Meyer's friend got him into boating one summer and he's enjoyed boating ever since. Senior Brian Richardson's mo t prized possession is his drum kit that his father bought for him. Richardson received his drum kit because hi father noticed Brian's progress and decided to buy the drum kit for him. Some prized possessions are those that you care for. Prized possessions can be people that are close to you. Junior Sandra Murphy says,"To me I think my most prized possession is all of my friends. My friends are always there for me and I'm close to all of them." So whether it is sentiment, price value or just simply because you think it fits your personality, your prized possession is one of the most important things in your life .

Whether our lives are dramatic, adventurous, humorous, romantic or any other kinds of feelings we should be able to think of a movie or story that could fit our lives or the way we live. There are many different options such as the movie Speed, The Jerky Boys, Billy Madison, Miracle On Some Street or any modern love story we should be able to match ourselves up and even become the real-life actors for our movies or lives. 11 My movie would be Speed, because my life is filled with adventure and not to mention the fact that my girlfriend drives really fast and crazy, 11 said senior Brian Wake. Some people would like to go as far as to be a character in a movie. Sometimes that would be good and sometimes even be bad. 11 Last Action Hero would be mine because I would like to be invincibl e like Arnold was, and be able to attract girls like he was able to, 11 said sophomore Shane Snipe . 11 The movie I would like to Jive would be Days Of Thunder. It would be cool to be Tom Crui e playing Cole Trickle. I like racing but I could get really hurt very easily, 11 said junior Patrick Hotz. In some cases maybe your movie hasn't been made yet, or you even could still be waiting for something spectacular to happen. 11 My life hasn't been made into a movie yet. My life is too adventurous to be a movie. Maybe they will make one some day so until then keep watching, 11 said senior Diane King. 11 My life should be Harley Davidson and The Marlboro Man. Some people on the football tean1 told the coach that I bought my car from a Marlboro catalog with Marlboro miles , 11 said senior Pat Moore. Some people believe that senior J.J.

It seems ~~hat everyone has their little moment. Whether it was the time you were caught singing in the shower, the time you tripped over your own feet in front of that special someone, or even the time you walked into the wrong restroom. Sophomore Mike GaJ.Teans had his own little moment. Garreans explained, "I went to a summer church camp, and while I was showering somebody took my clothes. When I came out looking for my clothes, my camp friends were anxiously awaiting my presence, and snapped me with wet towels. If that wasn't bad enough, I got outside and found that the girls were waiting outside the shower." If you thought that wasn't too bad, how would you feel if what someone else did made you feel embarrassed. Science teacher Lori Williams said, "One Sunday during communion at church, rn daughter decided she would join · the priest. While he was praying my daughter ran laps around the alter." There are also those times when everything is going great until all of the sudden... Senior Chris. Lawrence commented about on of his most embarrassing moments. Lawrence said, "When I was littl ' I didn't like to wear underpants. One day I went roller skating and while I was playing the cup game my pants ripped. Wow, what an ' experience!" You may not be able to forget your embarrassing moments, but chances are that everyone else will. - Don't ever think that nothing can be worse, it can.

SophomoreDonZdansaid, "I would wish to be a billionaire, because ifl had a lot of money, the world would be mine!" Although a lot of people would wish for money, there were a few who had other things in mind. Junior Brian Richardson said, "I would wish for my band Wead to make it big and become legends!" Richardson added, "The only problem with that is that I would be afraid of being stalked and killed by some psychopathic fan!" Sophomore Bobby Rich said, "I would wish for the power to make anything I want happen, and the power to change whatever I didn't like. That way life would be so much easier, at least it would be for the people that I liked." Sophomore Danielle Eggett said, "I think I would probably wish for a million dollars, but I would be afraid that it would make me into a snob or something, and I wouldn't want to forget the people that rea ll y care about me !" Senior Doug Stahlnecker said, "I would wish for a big burrito and a cup of nacho cheese. No wait! I would wish for a lot of money so I could bu a l0t of burritos and a gallon of nacho cheese!" Junior Joe Deputy said, "I would wish that I would never get old, but then I would have to watch all m friends get old and die!" Some people were unselfish with their wishes though. Senior Amy Igou said, "I would wish to stop animal cruelty like killing dolphins with fi h nets, and killing elephants just for their tusks!" Guidance Counselor Debra Cook said, "I would wish that there be no more truants so that way everyone would be in school!" Everyone has at least one thing that they want more than ever, and just because they can't all come true, th quest for Aladdin 's lamp is one that some people will never give up. Eggett added, "Be careful what you wish for, it might just come true!" Sophomore Adam Johannes one wish is to get a car so he can go cruising in it. Photo by Bill Young.

"They started calling me Al, like the guy from Home Improvement, because I was wearing flannels and I hadn't shaved for awhile," replied Aldredge. Sophomore Ryan Wood got his nickname Woody, in seventh grade during the football season. People are still calling him Woody now that he is in high school. "I like the nickname Woody, because it goes along with my last name," he said. Junior Patrick Hotz was given the nickname Stretch by a friend's dad due to his heighth. "At first I didn't really like the name, but since people have called me Stretch for so long it has grown on me. Now I think it's cool," said Hotz. Sophomore Oral White got his nickname Weegie from his fii ends. " I've had the name for a long time and once everybody started calling me Weegie, it sort of stuck," replied White. White said he doesn't mind the name becau e he's used to it. Junior J.D. Bogatz got his nickname Chipmunk from all of his friends. "They call me Chipmunk because they think I laugh like one," said Bogatz. Freshman Jared Osmer's parents nicknamed him Ozzie because it comes out of his last name."

A problem that hit close to home was the trash problem. The Administration threatened to close campus for students if this trash problem didn't stop. Each class got together with their class president and decided that the best solution was more trash cans in the parking lots and for the students to throw away their own trash after lunches. Student Council Sponsor Paul Hans said, " I think the students took a negative situation and were given the opportunity to solve the problem.

Senior Doug King said, "I liked the fact that it was held at Creighton, but the parking was really bad." The Prom court was announced at 10:00 p.m. . The junior prince and princess were Tom Parrack and Silina Childers. The senior king and queen were John Skinner and Nikki Smith. The crowns were presented by the children of the faculty . Post Prom was held at Valley View Lanes from 12:00 a.m. to 4:00 a.m. A new addition to Post Prom was Cosmic Bowling. King said, "I had a lot of fun. The bowling was great and August Manz is the funniest!" For the first time in a while, Prom was held on a Saturda instead of a Friday to avoid having students cutting class to get ready for the dance. Rowe said, "It was a night to remember for every one!"

By Bill Young 7he first ever T.J. Fest was greatly anticipated by some students that went to extremes to get there. Although not everyone made it. "I wanted to go, but I was in jail." said senior Matt Arnett. Some students were encouraged to bring their friends so sophomore Shane Snipes borrowed his grandpa's truck and loaded the back with about 10 of his closest friends. The concession stand was furnished with hot dogs, pop and some home-made brownies. Tee Jay Fest T-shirts that were designed by senior Brad Harbold were also on sale. Juniors Cori Zarek and Jessi Underwood and senior Olivia Vargas put together and helped run the food sales. Many parents assisted in the supervision of S ophomore Dave Young said the best part ofTee Jay Fest was the backstage pizza. Photo by Jeremy Maschmeier. the concert along with the faculty. The idea for this fest was thought up in January by senior Bill Young who took the idea to the Student Council. Together they made the dream a reality. The bands were contacted, a sound system rented for around $600 and the stage was put together. As the date got closer the pieces started falling into place. The shirts were picked up and the sound checks began. Before the doors opened sophomore Dave Young walked to the concession stand to get a pop. When he came back Young told the other band members, " I was out in the hall and there's people here." That got the bands and Student Council pumped. The concert was about to start. The show opened with Hitchcock Blue, a Ska band led by Jeff Ketcham. Carthage and Youngman followed and kept the crowd going. There was a short intermission and then Pretsoul and Wead took the stage. The concert was cut short because the sound technician was late. Student Council sponsor Mr. Hans said, "We had to cut it short, the janitors had to clean up and leave by 11 :00 p.m." The first ever T.J. Fest was in many opinions a success and in the years to come the Student Council hopes to involve other schools to try to bring the comm ~ty together. en Role Models ... For Youth Kid Chem and SODA teach elementary students By Jill Hendrix and Kari Foster Kid Chem is an organization that takes science lessons to elementary students. Kid Chem lasts one semester every year. Each year Kid Chem presents lessons all day long at the Washington School's Enrichment Day. Approximately 15 people participated. The sponsor of this function is Chemistry teacher Shannon CdeBaca. "It is a great experience for everyone. The younger kids write thank you letters (and love letters) to TJ kids who present the science lessons," said Ms. CdeBaca. Kid Chem training consists of 3 hours of learning how to teach science with toys, explosions and fun. "I really love the experience. I enjoy being able to educate young children in science related areas, while still having fun," said senior Olivia Vargas. SODA is an organization that means Students Opposed to Drugs and Alcohol. It is an organization that lasts all year. Senior Ramanda McDaniel said," I wish more students would get involved because it is really fun ." It is also a voluntary group. This year SODA had a float in the Red Ribbon Parade. They gave outsoda as the float made its way down the parade route. The sponsor of SODA is Special Ed associate Jan Smith. "I like the idea of SODA, I just wish there were more students involved. It is a good cause and could turnout to be something real positive if everyone kept up," said Mrs. Smith. Standing proudly next to their float are SODA members Daphne Andriopoulos, Vicki Davids, Nicole Boettger, Miranda Moore, Ramanda McDaniel, Dan Riley, Mindi Miles, Jan Smith, Janet Ives.

The team had some ups and downs, but eventually came out doing pretty well. "I'm glad we were able to get as far as we did," said sophomore Josh Aldredge. The team went to districts with high hopes of making it to state but were defeated by St. Albert. "I think we did pretty well this year. After all we did make it to districts," said sophomore Shad Mahanke. The team had many sophomores including Josh Aldredge. Shad Mahanke, Bruce Cash, Sam Barta and Nick Brougham. "The team did well for how young and inexperienced some of the players were," said Coach Jim Pauley. The team's most exciting win came against Clarinda during the Western Iowa tournament, the Jackets won 10-0. "I think the whole team played the game of their careers against Clarinda. It was like we couldn't be stopped," said junior Ja on Mcintosh. The team advanced to the second round, only to drop the heartbreaking loss to cross town rival St. Albert. "After the Clarinda game I felt the utmost confidence in th team, I don't know what happened against St. Albert. We played our hearts out," said Coach Pauley.

Gross wott won lost 't won won New Conference Brings New Teams By Tammy Stuhr Kicking off the new soccer season was hard for the lady Jackets because of all the new faces they had this sea on. "It was like starting from scratch this year, but the young ladies played their hearts out," said head Coach Bob Schafer. There were four freshman who suited varsity, they were Larissa Christensen, Sara Williams, Stephanie Simpson and Melissa Uhl. "All the games were really close, we started out slow but through the season we really improved," said freshman Stephanie Simpson. " We had a young team, we tried really hard to win as many games as we could. The stats may not show it, but we tried. The highlight of my season was when I got to play forward for the last game," said freshman Sara Williams. Senior Shanti Wick along with freshmen Sara William and Larissa Christensen made Honorable Mention for the Omaha Area, and senior Courtenay Higginbotham made 2nd team for the River Cities Conference. " It was a fun season, I got to play with most of my friends for the last time before they graduated. We didn't win very many games but we improved," said sophomore Brandie Jacoby.

It was the first year that the girls' varsity tennis team was placed with the title River Cities Conference Champions. The tennis team also took first place in the city meets and took fifth place in state competition. Junior Lindsay Ahrens said,"We demolished the River Cities Conference. I think it was a great year, one of our best, and I am hoping next year will bring us the victory again." "We played great. We worked well as a team at bringing home the victory," said junior Melissa Rocha. "I think we really trampled over our opponents. We had a lot of dedication with the players. We wanted the victory, and that's what we got," said senior Megan Korte. "I was ranked first for junior varsity and I had a really good year. I hope next year will be a better year," said sophomore Jamie Schreiber. The boys' tennis team worked well together as a team. Head Coach Jack French said, "We were led by senior Ben Faga who placed third in districts." "I think we played pretty well as a team. I think next year will be a better year for us," said sophomore Mike Garrens. "I had a pretty good year. I thought our team had good potential, we needed to apply ourselves more effectively," said senior Mark Feinhold. • • ... , • • • ~ -4 Sophomore Justin Poast goes for the short shot in his match.

Personal Performances Top Team Goal By Matt Erickson and Bill McPeck The girls, team had a rocky year finishing the season with a record of 1-11. "The team played very well , and we all stuck through it until the end. We didn't have a big turnout with the girls, but the ones that rud played very strong and very well said," junior Alisha Miller. The team did not win any tournaments but there were some individuals who scored very well. Nikki Allen placed fifth at the C.B Tournament. She had tough competition, but tore up the greens with her winning shots and putts. "I'm very confident that the underclasswomen that played were taught very well by the seniors. I'm very sure that they will fill th shoes of the seniors with great pride," said Coach Wayne Mains. The boys' golf team had it's ups and downs, with only one win in regular season play and a fourth place finish in the City Tournament. "The guys took on quite a battle , our record really doesn' t reflect ho much we really accomplished as a whole," said Coach Jack Rosenthal. The team put in a lot of hard work and effort that doesn't show in the win column. Freshman Jon Sealock was one of two freshman that put in the time and effort to help out the team when they needed it. Sealock also had some low scores and good quality games. "Besides the seniors who are the leaders of the team, there are also five other players that are top performers," said Coach Rosenthal. Despite the only one win in the regular season the team stuck together and made it the best year they could, by achieving som personal goals they had set earlier in the year. "We played our best, met some personal goals and that's all that counts," said junior Larry Wadja.

"Although I wanted about 50 girls, we only had 11 team members, "Coach Mike Johnson said. Despite the lack of team-members, the Jackettes managed a 4th place finish at the C.B. Relays. "We could have ran better at times, but I thought the team stuck together," said senior Heather Bliss. The JV team had a great season, which was capped off by winning the JV Conference meet. "We all ran well at the conference meet," said sophomore Katie Hunt. The team got a lift from sophomore Alex Le Guillou, who ran in many events and was very consistent. "Alex was toward the top in finishing in most of her races," said Coach Johnson. "Usually I'm not thinking about winning when I run, I just go out and do it," said Le Guillou. Le Guillou placed 3rd in the 800 meter run at the R.C.C. Meet. Although the team didn't have a spectacular season, Coach Johnson remains positive about the future. "We can only get better, and look out when that happens, " said Coach Johnson. Front row: Katie Hunt, Shantel Krisel second row: Coach Dunn.

The team showed the full extent of their ability at the C.B. Relay , where they tied A.L. for the city championship. "I thought the whole team came together and performed well all season long, they didn't hold anything back," said Head Coach Bob Nielsen. The Jackets also showed signs of brilliance later in the year. as they finished in first place at the 13th annual T.J. In vi tational. "We ran well through-out the year, but we really came on strong at the end, especially at the T.J. Invite," said junior Dan Riley. A new event this year was the Jughead Relays. This is wher the field and track events switched places. "My little arms weren't that great at the shot put," said sophomore Josh Flaherty. Also showing talent was the JV team, who also won their C.B. Relays and the JV R.C.C. meet. "I expected us to compete well, but I never expected to win. It felt good," said junior Don Giles. "Every member of the team, from senior to freshman, stepp d up and gave their all. It really shows how deep the team goes. J!m proud of them," said Coach Nielsen. -------------------------- . d up to throw Senior Jacob Clark stri ves for p eifectfonn as he win s the discus. Photo by J.D. Bogatz.

Cook Jennifer L. Cooper Jeremy F. Cox Jason E. Crane By Heidi Redmond When many seniors think of their future and where they will be in 10 years, many say they will be in college, going through college, or just living in a nice home with a family. Senior Elizabeth Pierce said, " In 10 years I will have been married for 9 years with two kids and living in a nice cozy house with a white picket fence. I will have a stable job in an accounting firm." Some seniors will have gone a step further and been through college and proceeded with there dream as a doctor, dentist or whatever they wanted to become. Senior Courtney Zinger commented, " In 10 years I see myself living in California where I can play softball all year round. I will also be going through college to become a doctor that specializes in working with bones. I've always wanted to be a doctor so I decided to follow my dream and make it a reality." As others went into a career that had an influence on them from their parents,friends, or some special person in their life. Senior Amy Igou said, " In 10 years I will be in the Air Force and hopefully will retire in New England where I used to live. My stepdad had a great influence on me to go into the Air Force, he was in the Air Force for 20 years and I grew up learning everything about the Air Force." As others will make their career as an actor,teacher or play music professionally. Some will try to make it, but then some will not make it because not everyone grows up to be someone famous. Senior Tony Hodge said, " In 10 years I will hopefully be a big star appearing on Broadway." Senior Jeffrey Ketchum said," In 10 years I will be a teacher or a professional musician." Just take a moment and think about where you will be in 10 years. Will you have followed your dream or would you of taken another path and went into a career that was something you never thought you would of done.

German Micheal Grashorn By Shane Snipes The class of 96' will soon be gone and will leave this school with some fond memories throughout their high school years. "The best memory that I ever had at Thomas Jefferson was the day I found out that I finally had enough credits to graduate. After my junior year I didn't think that I would have enough credits to graduate with my class of 96'. After I saw my report card I realized I had enough credits to pass. That ended up being my most memorable day," said senior Kelly Carpenter. "The day I remember the most is the day that I first started at T.J and didn't have very many friends and had absolutely no idea where I was suppose to be. After I started to figure out where I was at I started to make friends with other freshmen. Now that it is my senior year I have a lot more friends than I did and I always know where I'm going," said senior Matt Shear. "My most memorable day at T.J. has not happened yet, butlknowthatit's going to be the day that I graduate. I've waited four years to get out of high school and now I realize my time is almost over. I know that I'm going to miss this school and leave a lot of memories behind, like lifting weights for the Ironman team and sleeping in study hall," said senior Derek Hendrix. "There hasn't really been one most memorable event during my four years. There have been many events I will cherish for the rest of my life," said senior Olivia Vargas. The memories of the last four years range from missing teachers or friends, sleeping in study hall, the events that they participated in and even the day that they realized that they were really going to graduate. Senior Al Vincent has fond memories of the school lunches. After eating school lunchfor 13 years he will miss the cheeseburgers the most.

Jones I 0 o t's Off To Work We Go by Jill Hendrix Teenagers make up a great number of those that were in the work force. Why do you think teens have jobs? Maybe because their parents make them, or because they have extra time to waste and want something to do. "I need a job to pay for my car," said senior Doug King. They also save for college, an apartment or other necessities. Did jobs affect grades? Some did, but not all the time. "My grades have stayed the same and I still have a job," said senior Kelly Carpenter. So if you have a job it doesn't always affect your grades. "I do a lot of school activities and I have a job, my grades are good so it doesn't affect me," said senior Tony Hodge. "I have had a job for a long time and my grades are still average," said senior Tim Hashberger. People like Heather Davis have two jobs and still go to school. Senior Tricia Metzler said, "I have a job and save for a car and college." Having a job didn't affect her. She had very good grades and graduated mid semester. There were also the seniors that had to have a job for their own responsibilities. Senior Nyna O'Shea said, "I have a job because I have a child at home to take care of and I also have to pay rent.". Often, people are proud of their jobs. They don't want to admit to it but they enjoy having a job. They like knowing they have something to look forward to everyday. When they enjoy their job it shows. Senior Amy Igou said, " I enjoy my job and I still have time for my friends." They are excited to put on their uniforms and go to work. There are all sorts of jobs that teens can have. Jobs such as being a waitress, delivery, maintenance, answ ering phones and burger flippers. Some of the money that people made at work went back into their job or school for activities, fundraisers and shopping. Senior Tisha Davids said, "I spend my money on a number of things." It's good people can enjoy doing their job because it lasts longer and there is more money for you to spend. 1 1 ¥> 71ty grades have stayed the same and I still have my job - Senior Kelly Carpenter ,, CLASS COLORS: Orange, White & Black Senior Tricia Metzler sticks her tounge out at the public while she is at Mc Donalds on 16th and Broadway.

Marlenee Faith L. Martenson Andrew J. McAtee James F. McCracken By Heidi Redmond Seniors looked back to find many things that they will miss ,but with a second look, there also will be many things seniors won't miss. It could be the faculty, principals, truancy and attendance policy, or the fun they had with their friends. Senior Amy Radii commented, " I won't miss the messed up attendance policy and their lack of compasi n and understanding for people's problems." Some will miss things more closely tied to the classroom such as the homework, essays, term papers and filling out the diploma slips. " I will not miss the homework I had every ni crht " b ' said senior Brian Webster. Some took a look and realized that they will miss a lot of their friends or even some teachers they grew close to. Some teachers played a big role in some eniors lives. Senior Lisa Mcintosh said, " I will miss one of my favorite teachers Mrs. Prewitt." " I will miss the athletics and Mr.Neal's smiling face," said senior Dain Fox. As some seniors first year at T.J. they too will miss a lot about their first year experiences at a new school. It is hard for some students to adapt to a new school especially during their senior year. · " I will miss all the wonderful people I've met because people here treated me good for being my first year, " said senior Courtney Zinger. " I will miss all the cool substitute teachers," said senior Joshua Mawhiney. Some seniors did not agree with the short lunches or the lack of understanding the attendance office had with people's problems. "I will not miss only having twenty-five minutes for lunch. By the time I go to a drive-thru and get back to school, the bell is about to ring to go back to class," said senior Amy Igou. Senior Michelle Wilkinson said, "I will not miss the attendance office because they do not understand other people's problems." It is going to be hard for some seniors to go off and to go to college to make new friends in a new environment. Senior Jennifer Kafka said, " I will miss my classmates the most since we are all going to go our separate ways." So as some seniors will miss the different policies , faculty and most of all their friends, they will walk away into a new environment with all the wonderful memories they have to take with them. Senior Kris Shannon shows that he will miss Ms. Buchanan by giving her a great big hug. Some seniors will miss their teachers as they leave and go off into the real world.

Whether it was for announcements, senior pictures, prom or the senior ad for the yearbook, it seemed like everything kept taking the green stuff. "All the little things have really added up. I just can't believe how much money that I have spent thjs year. Where did it all go?" commented senior Shelly Smith. For some, they chose to spend a little more for their pictures than some others did. Senior Shawna Williams decided to spend around $1300 on her senior pictures, where as senior Brandi Lambrecht chose to spend $400. Where did all of the money come from that was spent? Some decided to venture out into the work world, where the money came out of their own pocket. While others depended on their parents to pay. "My parents pretty much paid for everything. I wouldn't know what to do if I had to pay for it all by myself," said senior Niki Allen. Other expenses that seniors had to dish money out for was their cap and gown, graduation gifts for their friends, senior shirts, keychains, tassels and graduation parties. Don't forget the money that went to college applications for admissions. It all added up. Senior Misty Lewis said, "Hopefully I will receive plenty of money to replace some that I have spent this year. I have spent money as well as saving for my college courses and books." For some students, they had changed schools. They not only had to pay costly expenses to enter a new school, but they had to make new friends also. Some seniors say that their first year at Thomas Jefferson was a lot more expensive than seniors that have been here since their freshman year. To these first year students they ended up paying for more than they expected. Senior Courtney Zinger commented, "It was hard to change schools during my senior year. I ended up paying for a W1iters Inc. book, senior pictures, cap and gown and a English workbook. It all worked out towards the end because, my parents helped me out a lot with the money situation." Senior Kari Foster looks over an ordering fo nnfor her graduation announcements. This is just one of the things that seniors had to worry about paying for their senior year.

Bogatz After a two week delay due to very cold weather, the senior ski trip finally went under way. Senior student's dressed to kill and live through a chemical war, hit the slopes for a hard, fun day of skiing. The weather was warm, clear and slightly sticky, but that didn't stop anybody from having a great time. The beginners took time to learn the rules, laws and balances to master the art of skiing. While the more advanced skiers tried to brake their legs on the half-pipe jump' s. Nobody got hurt, except for some skiing accidents that gave the look of death in the skiers eyes. "I was very surprised on how we lucked out on it being such a great day, because I had a blast," said senior Al Vincent. "I was kind of bored at first, but when I took my pants off and skied in my boxer shorts it got . to me and made me a little crazy and wacky and stuff," said senior Dain Fox. "I thought my ski instructor Brett was a real cute guy," said senior Angela Brown. "I wore my awesome outfit because everybody in my way would be blind and I wouldn't have to worry about them running into me, and if I ever got into an avalanche they won't have a problem finding me," said senior Brad Wahl. At the end of the day students were tired, bruised, hurt and ready to hit the sack and sleep for a couple of days, but all this was not possible for there was school the next day. Some of the students argued and complained that they wanted the next day off to sleep-in and rest because they wouldn't be able to think when they were this tired, then there were the students who didn't care and had their parents call them in. "It was funny walking through the halls the next day seeing all the seniors with there heads on their desk about to fall asleep," said junior Matt Knudson. The day was a long, hard and achy, but everybody loved it, and the word around school was that a lot of the beginning skiers loved it enough that they went back to the ski hill for midnight maddness, for more of what they thought they would never do. ¥> 1thought my ski instructor was a real cute guy! -Senior Angela Brown ' It CLASS SONG: "Sweetest Days" By Vanessa Williams 5enior Dain Fox Lies in the woods in a pair of boxer shorts after taking a nasty spill from a jump.

The senior slide show had 465 pictures. "This year we had more pictures than years past. Usually there are only 200 pictures in the show and it only lasts for20minutes. Wehad two times as many pictures and it lasted for twice as long," said slide show member Kristy Fuhs. The slide show was shown to the class after commencement rehearsal on check out day.

We needed some more girls in the pool , but it was fun and really cold," said senior Brad Harbold. Baccalaureate was held at Abraham Lincoln High School the day of commencement. Students gathered together with Lewis Central and Abraham Lincoln seniors. Due to inclement weather, for the second year in a row, commencement was held at Abraham Lincoln High School. The class had earlier made the decision to have graduation there, instead of at Tee Jay, in case of bad weather. "It was weird to graduate at our rival school. But it was good to have it there though, because we were able to invite all of our relatives, without having to choose who got to go," said senior Brenda Rowe. "I think that the senior class was very well behaved. I think that everything went smoothly, " said teacher Deb Goodman. "It is weird at school without the seniors. I miss them," said junior Amber Kellner. 167 TEACHERS Angie Ankenbauer-English John Banks - Special Ed. Gary Bannick - Co-op Todd Barnett - Social Studies Chuck Black - Special Ed.

Senior Courtney Zinger sa id that she will miss most of the teachers she has had but there will always be that teacher (like Mrs. Rhode) that she will remember most. Relaxation Mr. Vincent said," I am going to work part-time for a year ,wait for my wife, then we are moving to Arkansas where I am going to play golf and fish all day." Mrs. Rhode said that the reason he got into teaching is, "I wanted to get more girls involved in math." She al o added when she went to school she wa teased because there were only two girl and all the rest were guys, and they were treated a lot differently.

Junior James Hunt said, "Even though some teachers are extremely boring I will miss some of them and they will miss me because I am a pain for all of them." What lead Mr. Vincent to the teaching profession was that his family was made up of teachers, so it ran in the family. He was following in their footsteps. Joyce Schaefer - Special Ed Brooks Schild - Science Marcia Schwiebert - TEFL Kelly Scott - Counselor Junior Karla Boner said, " There will always be teachers who have left a great influence on me, even if they retire and leave the memories that they have left on me will remain." With a combined total of about 78 years the void will be hard to fill after these teachers retired. Tom Vincent has worn many hats while a teacher. He has taught P.E.,English, Vocational Education, and coached the baseball team to a state championship in the 70 's. After 38 years he will retire. Photo by Brad Harbold.

We Are The Killer BEES g'y Matt Arnett Folks, happy ouEis over. At r,you're through. 200 ha is, pag~ 200. It was a long, b:arfil journey and there are so many people thatIBave to thank. Most importantly I want to thank Brad, my right hand man. Without Brad there would have been no book. Well, there would have been a book but it would have looked terrible. We made a heck of a team and if we had to do it over again , there's no way that I would! Never again! The next most important person I have to thank is Mom (Goodman). You kept us going when we thought that we would never get done. You were more than an advisor or an AA counselor, you were someone we could turn to talk about our problems. Whether it was broken windows, girls, crashed cars or who knows what, you were always there for us. I also have to thank Bill Head, JD, Al and the Ad girls. I'd name everyone that came in on late nights and put time in on the book but , you know who you are. I hope that you appreciate how much hard work was put into this book. The journey began four years ago and has finally come to an end. Thank Goodness! ! I had a lot of fun and learned so much. Not just about computers, but about life, responsibility and I think I even did a little growing up. Thanks for buying the book and looking at it at least once before it finds a permanent resting place on your shelf or in the back of your closet.

Whether it's a physical impression or just a memory of the event, it will last forever. High school shapes the way you act and even what you will be in the future. No matter how good or bad the event was, it leaves a mark in your life. Some students worry about their grades while others worry about how they will do that night at practice. Either way it shapes who and what you will be in future. From high sch ool friends, to your activities, they all leave a Lasting Impression.

From hanging out with your friends on weekends, to shopping for the dances, to working to save for the future. The memories will last forever. Many of the students stayed busy during their summer vacation by visiting new places, going to camps or working. At the Homecoming Carnival there were 1nany new booths along with live music for the student's entertainment. Prom night was special to many. For some it was a first and for some it was their last high school dance memories. From the summer days to Ptom night lasting impressions were made. c;t11d1•11ts dam t rilll inrr a o:;foa "Oil<' rt tilt \, lit t 1 t ~ .~ dmH e. fllwto h11 L11joli l'ar/,t.dal ASTRA vice president junior Laura Fuhs celebrates after finishing their float for the Homecoming parade.

For Spirit Week there was crazy hat day, twin day, disco day, dress up or down day and spirit day. Sophomore Michaela Kanger said, /1 I think Spirit Week is fun, it gives students a way to show school spirit." The Carnival was another activity. A new attraction to the carnival was the Pom Pon auctions. Sophomore Marie Wajda commented, 111 thought the Pom Pon auctions were funny. It made the girls look silly and stupid by some of the stuff they had to do." · There were also two bands playing at the carnival. They were the Garbage Pail Kids and the Rabid Space Monkey's. Sophomore Andy Vogt, a member of the Rabid Space Monkey's said, /1 I enjoyed playing at the Carnival and it was also our first gig so we were all pretty nervous." The Homecoming parade was more exciting than others. Floats, old cars, Cheerleaders, the Wilson marching band and theTeeJaymarchingband were just some of the added attractions to the parade. "Hooray for Hollywood" was the theme for Homecoming. The colors were black, white and silver. Crowned king and queen were seniors Tom Parrack and Lindsey Konecny.

By Lori McVey Wondering if you'll find that perfect dress, or if your date will go the way you expected it to. That's part of the "Christmas Tradition." These things concerned many Snoball couples. The theme of the dance was Winter Wonderland. The colors were blue, silver and white. The Student Council sponsored the Snoball dance. The king and queen were Mike Perkins and Silina Childers. "There was a good turn out, students enjoyed themselves and were well behaved." said Student Council sponsor, Paul Hans. "I twas a lot more fun than Homecoming, I thought, even though the snowman was a little lopsid ed." said junior Carrie Baxter. Three former g raduates played the role of a Disc Jockey for the night. After the d ance it was time to find something to d o afterward. Some students went home to watch movies with their dates. While others found other things to do. Sophomore M egan Hytrek said, "Me, my date and the friends we went with went to the Family Fun Center after the dance." For seniors Melissa Rocha and Childers, they went ice skating with their dates to end the evening of a perfect night in a perfect winter environment. The Snoball was a memorable moment for every student that will last with them forever. "I really enjoyed the Snoball dance, the memory will last with me forever, "said senior Susan Mc Vey.

By Sonya Fisher and Kami Hammond To many, Valentine's Day is one of the most romantic days of the year. For many, cards and roses were some people's favorite gifts. For others it was bracelets, rings and clothes. Senior Matt Seminara put a rose on his girlfriends desk for every class that she had. Senior Silina Childers said,"It was the greatest thing that anyone has done. I was totally surprised every time that I walked into class and there was another rose, it was very sweet." Juniors Josh Sorenson and Chad Gnader cooked dinner for their girlfriends. Junior Susan Schutt said," It was very sweet of Josh to do. I didn't expect to have him make me dinner, it took a lot of thought unlike just taking me out for dinner." "Valentine's Day is special even if you don't have anyone," said sophomore Krissy Mandolfo,"because you can spend it with the friends who don't have anyone either." Many of the students brought back the old tradition of bringing valentine cards to give to their friends, just like in elementary. Sophomore Lisa Goldsberry said,"I think it puts more fun into Valentine's Day." If you spent it with your loved one, or your friends it was a special day. Some couples decided to spend their Valentine's weekend at the Sweetheart dance. The dance was held on Feb. 8 in the New Fieldhouse, the senior class sponsored the dance. The class sweethearts were freshman Heather Berry, sophomore Larissa Christensen, junior Nikki Brown and senior Cori Zarek.

On Friday, March 21 it was the latter. The annual TWIRP (The Woman Is Required To Pay) dance was held in the New Fieldhouse with a theme of, "Under the Sea." The gym was decorated in various 'fishy' paraphernalia. TWIRP week was a week of different forms of expression. The expression started with Monday being Hat Day. Tuesday followed with Camouflage Day, Wednesday was Name Tag Day, Thursday was Tie Die Day and Friday was Pick-aDecade Day. There also was the Fabulous Feet Contest. "The feet that had the most money at the end of the week won," said freshman Pam Stahlnecker. The court was composed of four males from each class. Honorary court members were seniors Tom Parrack and Mike Perkins, "I thought it was a great honor to have the support of my peers, to know that they thought highly of me," said senior Dan Riley. The king of the dance w as Matt Seminara, the prince was Chad Gnader, theduke wasJonRyba and the earl was Jonathon Taylor. Many people did the traditional thing and stayed for the whole dance then either went home or went out to dinner before becoming homeward bound. Some people did something else, like sophomore Audrey Grieder. "We went to the dance, got our pictures taken and then w~nt o the Family Fun Center and won 2,175 tickets in one and a half hours. We spent $30 - $35," said Grieder. Men and women changing roles for the night gave the students a change.

By Enjoli Barksdale The Prom was a night to remember for all who came. The theme "Remember Me, This Way" fit the night. The colors were black, white and gold. Many wore their own colors to show their own personality. Before Prom the junior class officers decorated. They had a little problem with the candles fitting in the center pieces, so they used chewing gum to make the candles stay. "Everyone was given a stick of gum, we chewed 60 pieces to get them to stay," said Deb Goodman sponsor. Decorating wasn't the only problem there were many students that had problems at dinner. "As my date and I were at Vivace we were acting like we were high class people. So I asked Jim to pour me some more nonalcohol wine and by mistake he poured olive-oil in it. I was sitting there wondering why it was bubbling," said junior Jessica Rinehart. There were more funny moments before Prom. " The funniest thing that happened was junior Kelly Foster fell down the stairs at Grisantis. I keeped on walking so no one would think it was me," said junior Dawn Thelen. After Prom a few people had some problems. Senior Sonya Fisher and junior Jeff Diamond were in~ hurry to go change clothes, when they came back out the keys were locked in the car. "I was so mad but we got a coat hanger to get it unlocked," said Fisher. Post-prom was held at Brunswick. Everyone had the choice to play pool, cosmic bowling and Mares Casio Room. They had a dance contest, senior Andrea Masoner and graduate Tony Hodge won. Seniors Silina Childers and Matt Seminar a came out on top when they played in the casino. Prizes were given away, like phone cards, others won t.v's. "Mike Perkins and I won two t.v's," said junior Kylene Kermoade. So no matter what everyone did they all had fun even if they didn't get enough sleep.

However, not all of the original Senior Alisha Miller took campus remains. To celebrate this achievement many activities were planned throughout the year. Most of the events took place during the week of April 7 - 13. It started out Monday with a scavenger hunt that lasted throughout the week. The winner was freshman Jessi Raim. Journalism teacher Deb Goodman's homeroom won the trivia contest between the homerooms. "I was proud of them. They worked together to look up the information and had a lot of fun," Mrs. Goodman said. The Student Council gave tours and handed out refreshments at the Open House on April 13. Junior Josh Flaharty put together a magazine about the school's history that was mailed out to the community the week of the celebration. "It really over a 75 year history book that graduate Brad Harbold started last year. Most of the yearbook staff gathered information on each of the years the school had been open. "It was suppose to be done this year, but we decided to hold it back until the 75 graduating class (1 999)," Miller said. The first annual Hall of Fame inductions took place, honoring those who have made a lasting impression. The inductees were RF. Panders, Raymond F. Myers, Katherine Rap h Prosser, Al Couppee, Rob ert Schlegel, Marja belle Young Stewart and Gaylord Anderson. Although this celebration was for the building, the students and gradu ates w ere an important part. "It's cool to be a part of something that has been here so long," said sophomore Jackie Hammers.

What do these things have in common? These are a few of the ways that students spent their summer. Sophomore Audrey Grieder was working at Epply Airfield counting and organizing airplane parts, while freshman Laurie Park was holding baby alligators in St. Peters, Fl on vacation. "They have teeth about the size of my fingernail, and they're sharp too!" Park said referring to the alligators. SeniorJessiMcDermott spent her summer as a foreign exchange student in Germany. It was made possible by Youth For Understanding. McDermott went to a six day party called Kimes. "We stayed out all night and slept all day," said McDermott. Sophomores Kerry Jo Kritenbrink and Megan Hytrek traveled to San Diego, California and Arizona for a w eek. While they were there H ytrek and Kritenbrink visited Sea World, swam in the Pacific Ocean, visited Hard Rock Cafe and Planet Hollywood and they rode roller coasters on the beach. "If you want to see a lot of hot guys go to Phoenix or San Diego," said Hytrek. Having fun making ice cream, sophomore Dana White worked at Dairy Fair ice cream store. "I loved making banana splits, but brownie royals were my favorite to eat." Junior Sara Fly nn was an employee at Goodrich Dairy. " While you work you can get all the free ice cream you can eat." Many people only see summer as a time to goof off, but there are always two sides to everything. Sophomore Michaela Kanger volunteered as a SIT (staff in training) at a camp in Spirit Lake, Iowa. She had many jobs in her role as a SIT. Photo courtesy of Michaela Kanger. ,,4~ Mrs. Elizabeth Dole speaks with students from area schools and her supporters at Westfair. Photo by Amanda Baker.

By Laura Fuhs Every four years there is a new found interest in politics-- the presidential elections. Even if students weren't old enough to vote, they still had a chance to voice their opinion of the best candidate. Some students had a chance of a life time, they were able to hear the candidates views in person. Mrs. Hillary Clinton visited Iowa Western Community College on Sept. 19. And Mrs. Elizabeth Dole spoke at Westfair on Sept. 12. ASTRA members volunteered one afternoon of school work to go and support Mrs. Dole. Junior ASTRA member Andrea Mueller said, "Mrs. Dole was an excellent speaker. She was very informative and easy to listen to." All students were allowed to participate in the 1996 Mock Election. Social Studies teachers John McKinley and Pat Daugherty said elections went well. The ballots came back with Bill Clinton winning by 57%, Tom Harkin ahead by 59%, and Greg Ganske taking the lead by 57%. Junior Jennifer Nelson said, "It was a good experience for all Tee Jay students." Seniors who were 18 had another choice besides all of their college decisions. Their votes helped to decide the next President of the United States. But many people decided their votes didn't really make a difference, so they didn't vote. Senior Erin Mowery had this to say in response. "The people who didn't vote became a large group that could have made a difference." The election year ended with a Bill Clinton win over Senator Bob Dole and Ross Perot by a landslide.

By Lori Mc Vey Doesn't italwaysseemlike teenagers have a different sense of style and interest of entertainment? As always, entertainment and fashion were big things for teens. From dance clubs, to widelegjeans, towalletchains and to just hanging out with friends. Sophomore Alicia Kauffman sees it m another way. Kauffman said, " Fashion was not that big of a thing to me, I wouldn't call myself a trendy kind of person." To other students fashion was more important "I think fashion is a big thing to me because you don't want to go looking like some freak from a different world," said senior Susan Mc Vey. There also was a little taste from the past, retro. Body t t .t piercing, hair coloring, clogs, low cut jeans and orignal clothing were popular. Many students felt that Council Bluffs was not such a happening place to hang out. They often spent their time and money across the riv er in Omaha . Freshman Trisha Richardson agreed, " I think it's boring in Council Bluffs, so I go to the Old Market to hang out." Thrift stores, wallet chains, flannel shirts, whatpops in your head when you here these things? Grunge? Grunge was also a style preferred by many. The waypeopledressed and the places people hung out really affected their attitudes. Fashions and hangouts may change from year to year, but the styles from decades before always seem to come back. Many students enjoyed going to Mount Cresent as a place to be with their friends. Photo byRyan Wood. Sophomores Matt DeWolf and Chris Moore are trying to decide what movie to rent at Video Palace.

AcDec also had members go to State. For some of the students their memories of ASTRA maybe the last memories for everyone because the sponsors gave up their duties.

This year, there was not just one, but seven new teachers. One would bet that the faculty and staff didn't have a hard time adjusting to that. Jane Hanigan, the new English teacher, said she enjoyed the school. "It's more pleasant to be around, and people care more for my needs," she said. Senior Sonya Fisher said, "Miss Hanigan is a great teacher. She gets you really involved in the class." Dave Murphy, the new teacher for Business and TAG, said, "I didn't know what to expect because I really hadn't taught that inuch before, but so far it's a turn for the better." All of the new teachers said that everyone at school was friendly and everyone had good school spirit. "I like this school very inuch. The kids here are serious about learning," Grant Magnuson, the new metals teacher said. Most of the students at school liked the new teachers. Senior Colleen Stanford said," Some of then-i are cool, but then again, they are teachers!" Junior Tmn Horswill also said they were cool, but there are son-ie exceptions to every rule. All the teachers agreed that they were glad they were here and planned on staying awhile. Mr. Kaeding, the new Science teacher said " I like this school, it's what I live for."

Photo courtesy of Dan Strutzenberg. Coa 'hes Dan Strutzenberg, Doug Donaldson and Todd Barnett, along with graduates Bill Gray and Casey McGrain spent two weeks of their summer in Australia. Mr. Strutzenberg was nominated by a Cedar Rapids high school football coach to help introduce football to Australians. July 12 they left on a plane to Los Angeles. From L.A. they flew for 14 and a half hours to reach Australia. "We lost a whole day on the plane trip. We got on the plane one day and when we got off the plane it was two days later because of the time zone difference," Mr. Strutzenberg said. On the two week trip, they stayed in Sidney, the capital of Australia, Penrith, a suburb of Sidney and stopped in Hawaii for three days and two nights. The group was supposed to talk to one high school in Sidney but was forced to change their plans because the teachers were on strike for a raise. "I thought that was ironic because they were striking for the same amount of money that we got for a raise," said Mr. Strutzenberg. Mr. Barnett was very impressed with the players and how classy they acted. He also mentioned how much he enjoyed meeting all the new people. "I still correspond with some of the other coaches," Mr. Barnett said. Mr. Barnett was pleased with the entire trip but said receiving letters of appreciation from the parents and seeing the parents getting involved with the kids was the best part of the experience. Not only did they travel to Australia but Dan Strutzenberg, Casey McGrain, Todd Barnett and Bill Gray made a three day stop in Hawaii. Photo courtesy of Dan Strutzenberg.

Students on the Frosh team experienced a different way of showing what they had learned. Instead of proving , themselves to a teacher, they got some real life experience outside of the traditional walls of a classroom. Students spent about a week in class writing children's stories. Most students also spent a lot of time outside of class working on the assignment. The topics ranged from animals to contained lessons like "Don't cross By Michaela Kanger and Laura Herrick the street alone" or "Don't talk to strangers". The students then went to Children's Land Day Care and read the stories to kids between the ages of three and six. There were around 102 students on the Frosh team, among them there were mixed emotions about the project. "It was a fun and interesting experience," said freshman Tonnya Pruett, but freshman Jenny Richards disagreed and said, "The kids ran all over and didn't listen to the stories." This was the second year that the Frosh team has gone to the daycare to read their children's stories. Both times it has been very successful. Frosh team teacher Mike Johnson said that they decided to do the PBA instead of taking a written test. It seemed to be more fun than tests for the students too. It also helped them with their communication skills as well as using their imagination. So while they were using their classroom knowledge to get a good grade and check-offs toward graduation, they also were able to have fun. Smaller children often look up to people who are older than they are. One of the ways our students have helped with this is by teens teaching tots.

Aside from the basketball, volleyball and fitness, the P.E. classes held their annual dance unit. The four classes of each period came together to do something different. This unit was held in the Old Fieldhouse. From the Polka to the Toosh Push, students experienced many different kinds of dancing. Among some of these were square dancing, line dancing and a few partner dances. Students were not required to dress out for dancing like on a regular P.E. day. - By Jessica Rinehart Junior Natasha Williams said, "Square dancing is much better than doing the regular P.E. routine." Teachers John Kinsel and Lavonne Pierson taught the junior I senior P.E. classes the Waltz. Although it was enjoyed by many, there were still a few displeased students. Senior Toby Dofner said, "I'd rather be playing sports than dancing anytime." Freshman Brooke Walker disagreed. "Dancing is better than playing volleyball and other stuff because you don't have to dress out," Walker said. Ms. Pierson led many of the country line dances. She showed each dance step-by-step and then added music. In addition to the line dances, she also showed the students the Electric Slide. Ms.Pierson said that she enjoys teaching the dances, and she also said, "Dance is ..... tradition, socialization, learning respect, coopera tion and equality ..... the essentials for a happy life." During the many years of this tradition, taking time out for the dance unit has proved to be a success among most students, according to Ms.Pierson. But success or not, it brought people together before the holiday break.

"Homeroom is a good time to relax and we don't get assigned to do homework," said junior Derek Gruber. But there were people who disagreed, like senior April Strong. Strong said, "Homeroom was just a big waste of time." It's a bird, a plane, no it's Tee Jay Today. TeeJayTodaywasshownduring homeroom along with Channel 1. Tee Jay Today was run by three students, senior Dylan Peck, and juniors By Missy Reiss Amanda Chatterton and Jamie Story. Tee Jay Today was more then an announcement show, it was responsiblity the students experienced. "Tee Jay Today needed new announcers because they always made mistakes and it was hard to understand what they were saying," said sophomor~ Lisa Christensen. Tee Jay Today talked about all of the sports programs, what is cooking for lunch and special events that were approaching. "Tee Jay Today is very informative; it occupies a lot of time," said sophomore Brian Larson. If homeroom was the easiest class of the day then why did people skip? Junior Eric Blue said, "I do not think you should get suspended for skipping homeroom because it is not a real class." Well there were a lot of people who recieved the consequence. Sophomore Amanda Joslin said, "It was pretty stupid because I received four detentions and I didn't go so they suspended me for three days. That was the cool part." Sophomore Marci Leftridge said, "I was smart. I skipped before they started taking the real attendance.

French and Spanish classes were available to any students interested. Such foreign language classes were requirements for s01ne colleges. Many colleges require at least two years of a certain language in high school before adn1ittance to their school. "Foreign language classes are beneficial to students because they allow you to expand your knowlj By Stephani Maron edge of different languages and learn more about other countries," said senior Angie Fender. Language classes not only taught students to speak a different language, but it also taught the1n to explore different cultures and geography. Beginning Spanish classes explored Spanish classes by singing different Spanish songs. Some consisted of: "El Alfabeto" (The Alphabet), El Dia de los Muertos (The Day of the Dead), and Los Doce Dias de Navidad (The Twelve Days of Chrishnas). Singing these songs taught students that although in different countries, m an y of the same traditions apply . Students also were given a fun way to translate the language w ithout work ing straight from a book. Junior David Young said, "I used to thin k Spanish was really boring until we started singing those great songs, like the alphabet!" Some langua g e lasses d idn't sing in order to lea rn the d ifferent cultures. Fren ch courses took a field trip for dinner a t the Omah a Club.

Field trips are a way for students to experience the things that they are learning about in class and see how they will use those skills in the "real world". Math teacher Al Hudek took his trigonometry students to the Western Heritage Museum to put their math skills to use. While there, they had to calculate how tall the Christmas tree or wall was using ratios and other methods, and figure out the size of the floor. "I liked going to the Old Market while we were there too," said sophomore Rachel Kritenbrink. DECA went to Minneapolis for a Central Region Conference which inBy Michaela Kanger eluded all the chapters of DECA in the Midwest. "Students attended workshops, listened to speakers, and got to talk to other DECA students," said business teacher Dave Murphy. A rumor was spread that Mr. Murphy had gotten left behind at Mall of America, but he had been waiting for some students when the first group left, but he rode back with another group. The freshmen teams went on many field trips. They too went to the Western Heritage Museum a few times; once to look at the dinosaur exhibit and once to look at the rest of the museum. "I like going on field trips a lot better than just reading things out of a book and being stuck in a classroom all day," said freshman Kristen Jackson. The swing choir and the Jefferson Edition left on Oct. 22 to go to Peru State for a competition. There was a snowstorm while they were there and only one bus was able to return. Around half of the students had to stay in an old dorm that had no heat. "When we were walking outside to go perform in another building, a large tree branch weighed down with snow snapped and fell to the ground. It barely missed hitting us," said junior Sarah Porter.

The sink was not as deep as the normal kitchens. The refrigerator was side by side. The counters were four inches smaller than the other counters. "I think it's pretty thoughtful," said sophomore Scott I McGlade. There were two food classes, Foods 1 and Foods 2. Both sets of classes did PBA tasks. Foods 1 was required to cook a breakfast for four. Foods 2 was required to cook a dinner for four. Some people made mistakes in the By Missy Reiss Foods room. "I forgot the sugar in the sugar cookies," said sophomore Heather Salin. What are sugar cookies without the sugar? Junior Dan Strietbeck said, "I put the sugar in the cookies last and I was supposed to put it in first, but the cookies were the best in-EI:ie class." Foods 2 students learned about foreign foods from China, Italy, France and Mexico. "All my classes study about the country just as much as the food they are eating," said Foods teacher Mary Prewitt.. "I think that my favorite part of the class was eating many different types of food. We ate many strange things, I was surprised that most of them were good," said senior Trent Mulvania. Foods 2 went on many field trips. "During one of our trips we went to Jonesy's. I ate so much food I felt like I was going to explode," said sophomore Terry Peterson. "I would recommend Foods Class to all of the students, I thought it was beneficial to me. I learned how to cook a lot of new things. You can use cooking in everyday life so it wouldn't be a waste of your time." said sophomore Dusty Lindsey.

The seniors in Jane Howard's, Jane Hanigan's, Joe Schick's, and Dan Koch's classes all took the time and effort to make the hall look identical to the time. Well, maybe not identical, but they did a great job trying to relive the spirit. The decorating had been done in previous years, but it had never been as big of a project for the students. Seniors put up street lights, made By Matt Erickson and Shane Snipes food, decorations and showed fashions of the time. In that week the seniors participated in many activities. Each of the classes read A Christmas Carol, watched the film, and did research on Charles Dickens. Also the classes did many other things that included planning the food day, doing research on colonial England, and watching the play. Also, the seniors contributed many other things. A lot of the seniors worked in the hallway doing various activities. Some drew bricks, put up blue lighting , others drew pictorals. Senior Jeff Coyle said, "I thougt that the hallway was very eye catching and attractive to all the students that passed through the hallway." Another acivity was planning the feast day. Planning the food day was big fun for some, others it was participating. First the seniors had to plan what to do, and research what was to be done. Next the seniors planned the food, music and other splendid activities. Senior Scott Tabor said, "Planning the day w as long and really thought out."

Well don't worry, those problems are all over. The Internet has been installed. The internet has the most current information available and also access to university research. There are several types of educational programs available on the Internet. Some of the programs are Netscape, Radiks, which is the internet provider, Two point 0 and E-Mail capabilities. Business teacher, Julie O'Doherty said, " It was a good idea to bring the Internet to TJ because it's a way to be competitive in the education and business world." Mrs. O'Doherty also added, " Employers will require our students to be prepared to use the computer and Internet efficiently. Today's students will live in a international environment and the web is just one tool." Senior Susan Mc Vey said, " I think the Internet is a great source to use for research. The Internet has taught me new things about many different topics. I would recommend the Internet for anyone that wants to know more on a topic." The Internet is just one of the new inventions of the 90's that help students in the business world. It was a way of learning more about different things happening around the world. Students in Julie O'Doherty's Business Prep classes use the Intemet to work on proj ects throughout the year. Photo by Stephanie Long.

"Au to mechanics is cool because we get to bring in our own cars and work on them ourselves," said senior Matt Seminara. "The reason so many students like auto shop is because it gives them extra time to work on their cars. And for most, if not all, it saves a lot of time and money," said junior Bruce Cash. One of the big projects auto mechanics took on was to rebuild a 1968 Mustang. They bought the car for $200 and the class put $1,500 in restoring it, and they sold it for $2,500 by sealed bid. Auto shop teacher Lester Kadner said,"If someone is willing to apply themself, then I can help them save money on working on their own car. There are three things that I can offer the students in the class; I can help them on their own repairs, teach them to be a better consumer and help them save money." "The things that Mr. Kadner has offered our class has helped me out. I have saved at least $1,200 on rebuilding my engine in class, rather than taking it into a shop. Another positive thing about working on your own car is you are not getting ripped off, and it is getting done the right way," said junior Aaron Ring. ...... :> ...

They were all tasks performed by the wood tech class. The class was split into two parts. The first part was construction and the second rart was framing houses. The first year wood tech class took part in making clocks. They chose from many clocks like tea pots, playboy bunnies, dear heads, apples, a football helmets and the states of Nebraska and Iowa. Wood Tech teacher Dale Cerny said,"I enjoy working with most of the students. One thing that I like is that the students have to think before they do something." Wood Tech could be used in real life experences, according to junior Nick Sorensen. "I enjoy working with wood. I think it is good experience for the real world," Sorensen said. Freshman Tonnya Pruett said,"I think the class is a challenge. One of the different things about being in the class is that I am one of the few girls in the class." Sophomore Jonas Bose said,"I love to build things with wood. Working with wood could help benefit you in the future, for instance if you were to go into the carpentry field, or if you wanted to build your own house."

Students say that science is easier if their teachers make the class fun. Dissecting, coloring pictures, making children's books and taking field trips are a few ways the Biology I Zoology teachers made class fun. "Dissecting was the best part of science class," said sophomore Jason Rasmussen. Dissecting, gave the students the opportunity to actually see the different parts, which they had been learning about. Seeing a display up close was a lot easier than trying to visualize it. Teacher Lori Williams class made childrens' books to better understand the rainforest. They first chose an animal, then had ~ to write a story explaining the animal's living conditions, eating habits, etc. The story had to be written so that an elementary student could learn something about the rainforest. Coloring cells was not only fun, but it was educational. By using colors, students believed it was much easier to identify the different structures. The Human Biology class took a field trip to Iowa City, Iowa on April 28 and 29. They toured the campus, especially the science departments and were able to talk to school counselors if they were interested in attending the college. This trip allowed students to see how science differed from high school to college. Juniors Shannon Burgstrum and Luke Gutzwiller use jello to decribe a cell and its functions. Photo by f. D. Bogatz.

In the classroom students discovered assignment sheets, tests, the simulator and the biggest of all; driving. Drivers Ed. teachers and students always had memories once they got in the drivers seat. One student struck disaster when they put the car in reverse and looked over the left shoulder of the car, on the right a lady was behind them just about to witness her own accident. The lady looked at the instructor with her mouth wide open. Instructor Al Worley took care of the problem by pressing the emergency brake. "That old lady probably filled her pants, I know I did," Mr. Worley said jokingly. Another obstacle was parallel parking in the Old Market. A student backed into the sp ace and hit a pole . "He just knicked it, he didn't drill it or anything," said Mr. Worley. No one can forget the good old simulators. They p retend you're driving so you can learn possible situations on the streets. " In stimulator (simulator) I run over p eople on purpose just to make it fun. " said sophomore Chris Moore. Students may find m any helpful hints and rules of the road in Drivers Ed.

Students dealt with matter and energy and their interactions. "It has been an interesting year thus far", said physics teacher Terry Todd.," A lot of the students are interested in physics because they like to do experiments." One of the favorite experiments was when students held a pendulum above their head and it swung down towards their face. In actuality it never touched them, but it caused one to jump and flinch. Another experiment a lot of students seemed to enjoy was when Mr. Todd "charged students' hair up". Students touched an electrical charged glass ball, and it caused every hair in their head to stand straight up. Senior Matt Hatcher said, "The most interesting thing about physics w as the way Mr. Todd teachesit,he'sacool guy." Experiments also played a big role in chemistry. Chemistry is the science that deals with the composition, structure and properties of substances. Some of the favorite experiments of chemistry students included an experiment where they burned certain chemicals and it made brilliant colors. The favorite experiment according to chemistry students w as the exploding milk lab. Junior Nick Sorenson said, "I like chemistry because you can do labs, and learn a lot of neat stuff. " Chemistry teacher Shannon CdeBaca instructs senior Kyle Denman, juniors Dan Simpson and Bobby Gittens in one of the many labs they perform during the year. Photo by Stephanie Long.

Being able to work with others, exchange ideas and being responsible are just a few good qualities that were taught. Everyday before class students participated in energy builders. Energy Builders are games or activities that get students motivated for class. These also helped classmates get acquainted with each other. "Everyday before class we do some kind of activity to get us going. They are pretty fun!" said junior Dawn Thelen. Oneofthemany projectsthat the students w ere involved in was picking a quote that they thought would appeal or inspire the rest of the student body and staff. After they chose a quote, they had to p aint it on one of the walls in the building.

Photography first hour, was a busy class. Both beginning and advanced photography was taught by Mike Hale. There was only one advanced photography student, senior Robert Jenkins. Jenkins said, "Photography was a good learning experience. I spent a lot of my time helping others in the darkroom." Jenkins also entered some of his photographs in various art competitions. During the class time the students were assigned to do four projects. The first project was to take pictures of shadows. The second requirement was to take pictures of lines. The third was to take pictures of people. The final assignment was to write a story and have 10 pictures to go with the story. "A picture is worth a thousand words," said sophomore Josh Fouts. Senior Jake Toman said, "Photography is cool. The best part of it was, you got to take pictures and develop them yourself. The worst part had to be the smell of all the chemicals." The students learned that there was a lot more to taking a picture than just pointing and shooting. There were things like, camera selection, photo composition, how to make a proof sheet, how to print and how to develop the film. In beginning photography students learn the parts of the camera.

Junior Ryan Ronk said," I don't think the tests are very difficult, but there are a few hard parts to some of them." Unfortunately some students believed that the tests were hard. Teachers had different degrees of difficulty in their tasks. An example was a task in Linda Gardner's English class. The task was to explain why the 1990's are the hardest times to live in than any other time. "I had to work really hard." said junior Tony Renshaw.

What's that you have under your test? A cheat sheet! Cheating is a common thing for high school students. Cheater is a word that no one likes to be accused of and teachers don't like to accuse people of. Biology teacher Bud Meade said, "I've caught students cheating several times. Some of the consequences were picking up the paper, talking to the student, or giving the student an F for the paper. The worst was failing the student for the class." Cheating is a part of everyone's life at one time or another. Whether it was looking over your best friends shoulder or "borrowing" someone's paper just to "check" your answer. Most people who cheat don't just do it once, they keep doing it. "I've never cheated because I have a conscience. If I do cheat, I just confess because of my guilty conscience," said sophomore Linda Eng.

The class started out with 20 students and it gradually dropped to eight. As a result the class wasn't able to start any major projects because of the fear of more students dropping the class . "Our shortage of students caused us to do all book work. I was a little disappointed that we weren't doing any experiments but the class was still pretty fun," said sophomore Tony Jordan. Teacher Paul Hans said, because ) . the class was very small, it became very personable, there was a very to1 gether attitude among the students. By Stephanie Long Mr. Hans also stated that he couldn't figure out why 12 of the 20 students dropped out. "It must be because it's the end of the day and the students want to get the heck out of here," said Mr. Hans. Other electives offered through the social studies department were Sociology, Economics and Humanities. "I really liked Humanities because I enjoyed learning about the fine arts and philosophers of those times, but I think I went to class mostly to see what new ensemble Mr. Smilley would wear daily," junior Jessica Bittner said. Electives played a role in students acquiring a grade point average that would allow them an honors pass. Students needed to maintain a 3.5 GP A to get an honors pass. This was a legitimate w ay to get out of study hall. It gave students a chance to have an extra lunch break or catch up on sleep. "I love my honors pass. It gets me through the school year," said junior Katie Hunt. "I can go and have two lunches," said sophomore James Mawhiney. People have very different opinions on honor passes. Some think they are a great idea and others think effort should be a factor in the selection of who should or shoud not receive an honors pass.

Childers s By Laura Herrick & Michaela Kanger There are many things that come with being a senior. Stress, higher expectations and many good-byes to name just a few. Aside from the difficulties of being a senior, there are also many privileges. Even though they are there, many seniors don't realize that they are given special advantages. "We have privileges?," laughed senior James Hunt. Many just expect to be handed the privileges and when they finally do receive them they don't realize it. Many seniors, however, are conscious of the fact that they do receive special treatment. "We get respect. The teachers and administration know us better so we are more apt to not get in trouble. Also, we don't need hall passes," said senior Dan Riley. Some of the privileges that seniors receive are: senior ski trip, they don't have to go to study hall and they get to sign out before the underclassmen. A majority of the seniors felt that they deserved first shot at the parking spaces. Every year more parking stickers are given out than there are spaces in the parking lot, forcing many students to park out in "Siberia," or "in the boonies," as one student put it. After so many years of back breaking labor, seniors have finally discovered that all the hard work paid off.

Senior Colleen Stanford said, "I know that I will not miss the attendance policy for me it was just a big hassle." Whether it was the teachers, attendance policy, or other school related things many said that they were glad were over. Senior Melissa Rocha said,"I think that I will miss the privilege of bowling the most. That was the easiest thing that we did for P.E." Senior Julie Holm said,"I will miss the teachers the most. I had some really good teachers and they made the day more positive for me." Senior Silina Childers said," I think what I miss the most is my friends. I am use to having them right by my side and to think that I will not have that, and I am going to have to call them from college that is miles away." "I will miss the drama department the most, I think that they are the best people to be around. Drama has made a major impact on my life," said senior Dylan Peck. Through friendships, teachers, and classes, high school will always be remembered. Senior Nikki Zaccone will miss science teacher Shannon CdeBaca the most after she graduates. Photo by Ryan Wood.

To the seniors it's filling out scholarships, deciding on a college, taking finals and having second doubts on all the decisions that have been made. Senior Danny Lamkins said, "The most stressful thing about being a senior is taking finals." Choosing a college, does it really create that much stress? To seniorMikePerkinsitdid. "There are a lot of different colleges to choose from, how do you know if you've chosen the right one," Perkins said. Students spent long hours, sometimes even days in the counseling center. They used the computers, talked with their counse- ' . . - - . ~- - - - lor, took surveys trying to figure out what they wanted to do and where to go. College is the next step in a person's life, because of financial expenses picking the right one is difficult. Is there a way to avoid or eliminate all the stress? Senior Mike Tornblom wanted to share the way he relieves stress with his peers. "I hug a tree, it always seems to do the trick," said Tornblom. Does stress stop after graduation? Talking with graduates, stresswillnevergoaway. Whatever you do and where ever you go it will always be there. So, find a way to deal with it and don't let it take over your life.

Students often start their freshman year one way and leave four years later totally unrecognizable. "Almost everyone I know has had a major change. I remember my freshman year and now realize how each of us has grown to be our own individual,"said senior Erin Mowery. For some students changes involved their friends. "When I was a freshman I had a large group of friends that I hung out with. Through high school I found out who my real friends were," senior Cori Zarek said. Changes also occur in students' households. Some get more responsibility and others getmoreprivileges. Senior Lindsey Konecny commented, "I have a much later curfew than I used to have, and my mom trusts me more." The biggest change for many seniors is the planning of their future. Deciding on which college to attend, moving out or staying home, which jobs to apply for or finding some way to pay the bills. Senior BrianMuldrew said,'1 never realized how many different choices there are out in the world. I guess you just have to get your feet wet."

Many seniors spent well over $1000 on things like: senior pictures, clothes, graduation parties, senior trips and announcements. Amber Kellner said her biggest cost so far was about $550 for her senior pictures. Kellner estimated her graduation party to cost around $600. "I think it is crazy, it's too expensive to be a senior," said Kellner, "My announcements cost about $200. It is an outrageous price to pay." Senior Jennifer Cronk said , " The cheapest thing for me so far was the senior ski trip that was only $15 because I own my own skis." Many things you buy to remember your senior year are costly. Announcements cost about $200, senior pictures cost anywhere from $300 to $900. If seniors want a graduation party they should plan on spending any where from $200- $800. Seniors agreed that the price w as to high for the memories it created. "The price is extremely high for just one year, but if you consider all of the memories you pay for, it is reasonable," senior Jamie Kephart said. The money seniors pay for the memories can cost a lot dollar wise, but if they look at it like memories they are priceless.

Sales Looking By Daniell Birchard and Jamie Damgaard Graduating was exciting and students said they were glad they didn't have to go to high school again. Most of the students had plans to go to college. For others it was entering the wonderful world of work. "I'm working for now until I figure out what I'm going to do," said senior Colleen Stanford. Some are entering the military. "I first became interested my sophomore year. Larry Wajda gave a presentation in our history class about the army and West Point Military Academy, it was interesting. So I requested a book of information from West Point and when I started reading, it just clicked," said senior Eric Hillerson. It w as difficult in deciding what college to attend for the ones who planned to go. Sometimes it could be hard on deciding what to major in at college. Senior Dan Dunlap said, 'Tm going to loaf around after I grad uate, then after abou t a year I'll probably go to Metro college." Then there w ere some who planned to play sports in college. Senior Danny Lamkins said, "I'm going to Central college in Pella to study criminal justice." He will be playing soccer for Central.

While to others it was the last possible second to plan the life they will lead in the future. That meant doing a lot of those hand-aching, eye-crossing, bubble filling info. sheets and the exhausting essay writings, that students dread. Senior Jason Mcintosh said, "Scholarships and applications are a pain in the keester, it's just a whole bunch of writing with too big of a fee." "I wonder if I'm going to get accepted?" Students asked themselves that question time and time again throughout the year. Many of them even found themselves waiting by the mailbox hoping to get a thick package addressed to them. "I think financial aid is monetarily endowed," said senior Dan Riley. When students finally found the college that they wanted to attend they began to hyperventilate, because they thought there was no possible way of paying for school. Then came the chance to take advantage of those scholarships. "They take way too long, but the money is good and it really pays off in the long run," said senior Brian Tedesco. Being a senior was not all fun and games, sometimes high school was difficult. Being a senior meant preparing for the life they would lead in the future.

At leastthat' s what high school buddies believed. Most students spent all of high school vowing to be inseparable from their best friends until the end of eternity. Who knew eternity meant graduation? When students are no longer in high school, and in the "real world" they are faced with many more obstacles to overcome. American Government teacher Pat Daughtery said, "I have grown apart from all of my high school friends since graduation - today they are only my acquaintances." JuniorTomReikofskisaid, "I think I'll probably keep my same friends for a little while after high school, but I'm sure we'll end up getting separated somehow." Although most students weren't able to keep their high school gang alive, there were a fortunate few who succeeded in doing so. Junior Shannon Burgstrum said, "The majority of my friends went away for college and I still talk to them pretty often." Mr.Daugherty added, "Some people develop lifelong friendships, but I didn't-with one exception. Ever since my 17th year, my best friend has been a pretty girl- who became my wife!" Even though a lot of people aren't able to stay as close to their friends as they used to be, it is important to cherish the memories of old friends while making new ones.

Seniors who wanted to skip needed to called in, in order to be excused. Most seniors filled their day with fun and excitement. "We went fishing with Horse. (Larry Wadja) and Toby," said seniors Nate Hanneman and Jason Gunderson. "I stayed the night at Jake Tomen's house and played Play Station." said senior Jason McClelland. Some seniors couldn't break themselves away from school. Senior Jamie Lobendo said, "I went to school for two classes then went shopping for the rest of the day." "I was supposed to go mushroom hw1ting, but I didn't because my ride didn't show up, so I stayed in school," said senior Dan Riley . Entertaining onesself at parties w as popular also. Senior Sara Johnston said, " I went to Danny's house, ate pizza and played games all night with a bunch of friends. Senior Brian Tedesco said, "I went to a party and played poker, I w on about $30 d ollars in change then I had to go to work.

From the tough losses at the beginning of the year to the big wins at the end. The team started out slow with a seven and seven record. But by the end of the season they proved themselves by winning the city title. The varsity players were joined by some of the underclassmen later in the year. Some of the players that got moved to varsity were sophomores Matt Hendrix, Justin Kammrad, and Matt DeWolf. Hendrix said," I was wondering if I was going to play, and what I was going to do." Senior Jason Mcintosh said/' I think Justin Kammrad stepped up showing himself as a prospect by hitting a triple in his first chance to play at the varsity level." "This was a very satisfying year towards growth and development of our baseball program. As a team, we battled adversity early on in the season and yet came together and finished the season strong and came back to win the city championship/' said Coach Lee Toole.

For the first time in seven years the girls made it past the first round of districts by defeating the Glenwood Rams 15-9, 15-8 and 15-13. A week later they fell to cross town rival A.L., who they had beaten earlier in the year. Senior Jena Verpoorten said," Beating A.L. in the regular season was the best!" Injuries were a problem for the team. During the Tee Jay Invite junior Annie Hensley went out with a sprained ankle. After she recovered she then went out w ith a back infun back into the game. One weekend the JV and varsity packed their bags and headed to Knoxville, Iowa for a tournament. Not only was the team able to play good teams, they were able to bond. "Taking this trip not only allowed us to be teammates, but to also be friends," said junior Kelly Foster. Even though the varsity didn't place high in this tournament, they defeated ranked Atlantic. jury.

The game was tied one to one through two overtimes and that led to the shootout where the boys were short by one goal. "It's tou gh to lose when you work so hard for something. We really wanted to beat AL in the district game," junior Shad Mahanke said. Gail Anderson took over the team as coach for the first year. "He did a good job coaching the team. He helped us stay together and play as a team. I thought he was a good coach," sophomore Shane Hoss said. "These kids were an excellent group of kids to coach. These kids worked for the betterment of the team and thought only of the team," Coach Anderson said. The seniors gave the younger players someone to look to for help. Junior Bruce Cash said, "The seniors were great leaders. They gave everybody encouragement and kept us playing as a team." Bad Luck seemed to sum up the season. "We had the worst luck this season.

''" ~ · Drama Students Go To Visit The Windy City ~ By Ricky Prosolow Over Christmas break in 1996, the Drama department teok a trip to that "Toddlin' town" of Chicago, Illinois. They left early in the morning on Dec. 16 and didn't get back until after Dec. 20. One thing the whole group remembers is the food. They all agreed that the best place was Ed Debevic's, a restaurant devoted to the 50' s and 60' s. " The odd thing about Ed Debevic's", said junior Bobby Gittins, "was that the waiters were rude. They were supposed to be that way. II The waiters would tell the group to refill their own drinks and clean up their own messes. Their waiter was Moondog, a 50' s rock musician impersonator who had an incredibly high hair-do. Some of the other things the group remembers about Debevic's was the jukebox (which played only oldies music) and the soda fountains. Gittins said, "Debevic's was a blast." The trip also led them to the set of Home Alone 3, which was being filmed inside Mr. Gibson's sister in law's house at that time, so they toured the house. They also saw said some productions, which included "Sheer Madness", "Showboat" and "Mojo". In "Mojo", Mr. Gibson was able to see someone he knew in the show, so the group was taken backstage. They were shown various things, such as how to work some of the p rops and the different positions on the set. Those that went were Drama teacher John Gibson and sophomores Jeff Smay and Andrew Vogt, juniors Tim Hough, Mike Lane, Tyler Brown, Bobby Gittins, Megan Webster, Jamie Story, Nicole Moore and Mike Garreans, and seniors Andrea Masoner, Elizabeth Hurt, Tracy Sales, Dylan Peck, Chad Sulley, Jackie Gardener and Diane Frazier. They also noticed many differences, but few similarities, between Chicago and Council Bluffs. Some of the differences included the size, the theaters, the libraries and the malls. The prices in the gift shops were also very expensive, way more than in Council Bluffs. Some similarities were the way Chicagoans dressed and acted. Masoner said, "They (Chicago people) were so rude. I was glad to get back." Junior Tim Hough relaxes after the long trip to Chicago. Photo courtesy of Bobby Gittins. Students in the school hallway anticipate the vacation of the year.

There were over 150 students in the choirs that let their voices be heard numerous times throughout the school year. The choirs participated in many competitions, and many students also competed as individuals or in small groups. Sophomore Bryan Larson said that his favorite things about being in choir were, "going places, traveling and meeting new people." While at the Lewis Central competition, Jefferson Edition finished fourth for the first time in 20 years. While at a competition in Peru State, part of the Second Edition and Jefferson Edition were unable to return home because of a snowstorm and were stranded there overnight. "It was fun staying in the dorms, although they weren't heated," said sophomore Spring Madsen. However, like many things, there are ups and downs of being in choir. "A selected few don't work up to their full potential. Some people also mess around and are rude to Mr. Gray," said sophomore Jeff Smay. "Choir rocks! We have fun and enjoy singing. It lets us all do something we are good at, and if you agree with me, rock on! " exclaimed sophomore Brandy Merrifield. Many people enjoyed choir and were also proud of all the hard work that the choirs put in. As a voice of the school the choir has to sound good. Which is the reason why the choir is always keeping in tune.

Jl By Laura Herrick "Are the drum majors ready?" Drum major sophomores Shane Anderson, Tina Austin and Jane Beranek salute, go to their respective positions and fire up the band. This scene was common before the band and flag competitions. The marching band and flag squad performed together for a majority of the time, but on occasion they could be found performing seperately. "When you know you did good it makes you feel good," commented sophomore Regan Williams about competitions. The band did do very well, earning a one at Glenwood and a two at state contest. Performances w eren't the only things that students enjoyed. There were also m an y other things. "Um ... the trips. No! Wait, I w ant to change my answer. The trips and w inning stuff," said sophomore Rachel Kritenbrink. Aside from the traditional things of b and and flags, there were some not so traditional things. Like having a boy on the trad ition ally fem ale flag squad. Senior Dylan Peck was the first boy ever on the flag squad. "I like b eing surrounded b y tons of women! " Peck stated. In addition to being the only boy on the flag squad, Peck was also one of the fou r squad leaders. "He's really good at what he does and he's d efinitely a lead er," said sophomore Kara Polchow referring to Peck as a squad leader. The other three leaders w ere, sophomores Melissa McClain, Erin Hilton and senior Diane Frazier. The other not so traditional thing was that four of the marching band players played in the Fiesta Bow l during the pre-game show on Jan. 1. Five students from Tee Jay tried out for the Southwest Iowa Honor Marching Band which was part of the band that p layed during the pre-game show. Four of those five mad e the elite grou p. Freshman Nick LeGuillou, McClain, H ilton and Kritenbrink were given a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. "I can't wait until my senior year so I can try out and go back again!" said McClain. Traditional or not, the band and flag squad perform and perform well. As Polchow put it, "Don't forget to come and watch the band at their next performance." • Band members try hard to stay in step while still concentratiti on their music during one of the many parades.

For some people the hard work paid off for good times. Orchestra member, Jami Reid said, "I had a good time when James Hunt tripped at a concert and brought d own a stand with music on it in front of the audience." Jazz Band member Andrew Vogt said, "Mr. Clark alway s said 'open up y our ears and watch me'. That was so funny ." Jazz Band members had a lot of fun joking and playing tricks w ith Mr. Clark including Ryan Redding who said, "It was hilarious when the whole group hid Mr. Clark's m usic and he got really mad. By the end of the y e ar he still didn't know about it." Jazz Ban d m ember Nick Le Guillou said, "We have a song called "My Ship" and wealwaysthinkhe says something else. " There could be some bad times also. Reid also said, " It was bad when James Hunt got kicked out of class because he brou ght a whip and was cracking it." Vogt added,"! hated it when M r. Clark got angry because he would talk very loud." Jaz z Band members also hated getting up earlier than other people. Sophomore Luke Jefferson said, "That was the worst part ab out Jazz Band was getting up so early and having to p lay m y trumpet. I did get a lot of good things out of Jazz Band ." Le Guillou added, " I always had to eat m y breakfast during Jazz Band warm-u p s. " Jazz Band had 19 students, while O r chestra h ad 12 students. Jazz Band teacher Dave Clark said, "There were some things I would have liked to ch an ge about the students confidence, technique, practice habits, improvisation, articulation and tone quality. " Orchestra and Jazz Band member Sarah Porter said, " I made some wonderful friends in Orch estra over the past three years, and received a warm welcome from all of the Jazz Band members during my first year of Jazz Band. I also wished the whole Orchestra class could have been able to concentrate more on their music. " Not only was there music at the Orchestra Coffee House bu also dancing done by sophomore Brooke Hallberg. Photo b Ryan Wood. Orchestra Front Row: Clint Kephart, James Hunt, Dan Riley, Ben Schulz.

M By Ricky Prosolow Blithe Spirit, the annual fall play, took place Nov. 8 - 9. Costumes were a great part of the production. They included junior Lisa Schlotfeld's gray image of Elvira, and senior Andrea Masoner' s many costume changes throughout the production. The set had a 1940' s background, complete with French swinging doors and characteristic drapery. Senior Elizabeth Hurt said, "It was very hard to work with," she admits, "but it all turned out nice in the end." The set was put together by the Stagecraft class, along with a lot of help from the Drama classes. One of the workers, senior James Hunt, was hit in the head during construction when a wrench fell off of a nearby ladder. Hunt said, "I was hurt and I was angry, but the only thing I could do was suppress my feelings." Some highlights of the show were the cast's numerous seances, the scenes with Elvira, Masoner's repeated attempts to keep the audience entertained and the "earthquake" scene at the end. There were many distractions, such as a coffee spill during a seance and a crying child, but the actors ignored them. They seemed focused on only the lines of the play. Hough said," It was tough concentrating on our lines, but we somehow pulled through." There were some problems with the construction of the set as well. Lighting was not as it was supposed to be because of some minor defects and the constructors ran out of wood halfway through building the sets. There were also some problems with the painting. White paint was spilled all over the floor. It was covered up, though, when the crew put down a black and white checkered floor, characteristic of the 1940' s mansion. ~ f!t g'~ Sµu& Charles Condomine Tim Hough Elvira Lisa Schlotfeld Ruth Condomine Edith Geeves Dr. Bradman Mrs. Bradman Madame Arcati Elizabeth Hurt Samantha Slyter Vincent Tobias Tyler Brown Jackie Gardner Andrea Masoner Seniors Jackie Gardner and Tyler Brown are introduced to senior Elizabeth Hurt and junior Tim Hough.

Depa~ "1 ~· ~ ,Q Makes "Fools" of Themselves ~t<f by Ricky Prosolow _ On April 25-26, the drama department's spring play, "Fools" was performed in the Thomas Jefferson Auditorium. Cast included senior Dylan Peck as Leon, sophomore Adam Ashley as Snetsky, senior Elizabeth Hurt as Slovitch, sophomore Jeff Smay as Yuri, sophomore Vince Tobias as Mishkin, senior Jackie Gardener as Yencha and senior Tyler Brown as Dr. Zubritsky. Unfortunately for the stage crew, they had only about three weeks to build the set, which meant hard work, extra time and bad attitudes. Junior Bryan Durgin said, "The set wasn't hard to build. The stage director (Mr. Gibson) was a little rough on everyone, though." The set was eventually finished, but some weekends were cut short. A lot of the cast had different views about "Fools" and "Blithe Spirit". Senior Tyler Brown said, "The difference was that 'Blithe Spirit' was all yerbal. You had to listen to understand it. 'Fools' was a lot more like a comical production." On a sad note, this was the last performance of some seniors on the TJ stage. Andrea Masoner, Brown, Hurt, Peck and Gardener were such seniors. However, these feelings of leaving forever only led them to a better performance. Many things went on that no one else knew about except the cast and crew. Sophomore Josh Fouts (one of the many towns people) threw up in the auditorium during a rehearsat and Masoner cracked a joke during a very important practice. Mr. Gibson was surprised that no one was anxious or even nervous about getting on stage. He said, "Everyone was sitting in little groups, talking and watching the play. This has never happened before." This appeared to be the attitude throughout. There wasn't a different point of view in anyone. Matt Stovall, a student teacher for Mr. Gibson, said, "I was really amazed at the ability and professionalism of the drama students. They worked really hard to put together a great production. It was better than 'Ca ts'." Seniors Tyler Brown and Andrea Masoner talk to the above for help.

By Alisha "AL" Miller The Lasting Impressions that will be left range from Head Custodian, John Hansen recovering from a stroke to the scholarships won by the seniors at Senior Honor Day. The hard games won and lost, and the hard work of the athletes will be remember by the coaches, the players and the fans. The academics were a great accomplishment by the students and the faculty. The dances went without a hitch and were enjoyed by all. We all come together and made the lasting im- . press1ons. As the memories come to the end and the seniors moved on to college or the work force, the juniors will moved on to their senior year, while the sophomores and freshman have years to come, but everyone will remember the Lasting Impressions that we made while they we were here. Senior Sarah Johnston, juniors Pat Rose and John Sinnott went to Worlds of Fun for a Physics field trip bungi jumping was one of the many things that they did while there.Photo by Terry Todd.

Although many students found themselves making preparations at the last minute, most felt Homecoming '78 was a success, except for a disappointing game. Even floats prepared at the last minute were creative. The first prize float, designed by the Junior Class, featured a Lynx chef constructed of chicken wire, and stuffed with paper napkins, barbecuing a skewered rabbit over hot coals. Another recipe for fresh rabbit meat was offered by a Tasmanian Devil, who concocted a tasty rabbit stew. The National Honor Society didn't want to bother with recipes. They just wanted to "Burn the Bunnies" with their old-fashioned firetruck HOMECOMING COURT. FRONT ROW: Tami Hughes, Sandy Bowen, Denise Trzeciak, Lynne Johnson, Anne Abel.

Most students agreed that along with floats, the dance was better than past years'. "It was the best Homecoming Dance I've been to," said Dana Butler 79. The band's driving beat encouraged everyone to get out on the floor. "I thought the group Phoenix was really good," said Elise Ericksen '79. "They really made people want to dance." The week before Homecoming, Student Council members tried to generate excitement by decorating the halls and student lounge with streamers and balloons, and cheerlea€1ers sponsored spirit days, with a different outfit for each day. The most popular was "Country Day," with everything from cowboy hats to boots and spurs westernizing students. Spirits were high, with everyone confident the Lynx could pull out a Homecoming victory. But hopes were smashed as AL fell to Benson 20-14. The brightest spot in the game was at half time, when the letters T-A-M-1 were lit up to announce Tami Hughes as Homecoming queen. laughter and good spirits abound as Lori Farrell clowns around at the Homecoming game.

Suddenly the lights brightened-the house had landed in Oz. Children and adults alike wondered what other spectacular events were in store for them after this early tornado scene in "The Wizard of Oz," presented Nov. 8 through 11. Because of the fairytale plot of "The Wizard," many extraordinary events had to be created on stage through special effects and exact timing. "I think our biggest problem was figuring out the special effects," said direc tor Jim Mimick. A hot air balloon that was supposed to lift Dorothy and the Wizard finally had to be left on stage because there was no way to raise it. But in other scenes, the crew was able to create effects so startling that children screamed out. Witches, for example, appeared in puffs of smoke and the Wizard's voice reverberated so loudly that it resembled thunder. Props and scenery also took much time to ' create. The stage crew spent approximately 200 hours painting and designing props. The yellow brick road alone took nearly two weeks to complete. Because a younger audience was expected, Keeping a steady hand, Pam Acklie carefully makes up Kerry Mortensen as the cowardly lion. (ABOVE) The magic of jitterbugs M ichelle Petry, Paula Ryan and Jill Searcy captivates scarecrow John Burke, who can't stop dancing. (RIGHT) 12 musical costumes had to be designed to hold their attention. To give them a short, round appearance, munchkins sat on skateboards with cardboard under their satiny gowns. Two hundred yards of material were used on the munchkins' costumes alone. Make-up was as challenging as costumes, according to Pam Acklie '80, make-up chairman. "The lion was the most difficult character," Acklie said, "because he was a mixture of fantasy and reality, which had to be evident in his make-up." The hours put into "The Wizard" were rewarded with letters filled with praise from Longfellow third graders. One child said his favorite part was the shrinking of the witch. Another complimented Cheri Parramore '80: "I thought Dorothy was wonderful and she sings well, too." One little boy wrote, "If I was the teacher, I'd give everyone in the play a prize." Older students also enjoyed the play. Many of them left the auditorium saying, "I thought it would be dumb, but it turned out great." "The wicked witch was super," said Linda Winey '79. "She sounded just like the one in the movie." • "The Wizard of Oz" created a fantasy world both big and little kids loved.

Such was the recipe for Christmas Dance Dec. 9. Weeks before the dance, girls nervously prepared to ask that special someone. Although a few were too shy, most had the courage to ask their dates. Girls thought switching roles for the night helped break the old tradition. "I like asking the guy to the dance," said Patty Ryerson '79. "It gives you a chance to ask who you want." Most boys agreed the change was welcome. "It feels different being asked by a girl," said Neal Hakenson '80, "but it takes the pressure off the guy.'; After the nervous anticipation of asking and waiting to be asked, couples were expecting an eventful evening.

The floor was constantly crowded, as couples changed partners, dancing with friends. "The dance was more fun this year when everybody danced with more than one person," said Judy McNeal '80. Many couples completed the evening with a meal at one of Omaha's best restaurants. Two of the most popular spots took them hundred of years back into history. Brother Sebastians resembled a medieval monastery complete with library and wine cellar. The Drawbridge simulated a medieval castle. Real suits of armor added to the atmosphere. "The Draw - bridge was really different," said Traci Hughes '80. "They even had pages for waiters." Stuffed and tired, couples ended the evening filled with memories of the night they had shared. christmas dance 15 Crepe paper cobwebs, spiders, and witches hung from the gym's ceiling as students imitated John Travolta's disco dancing at the Halloween Dance sponsored by the Senior Class. The Oct. 28 dance featured Raven, which included Terry Hempel 79, and Tim Williams 79. "The band was terrific," said Suzy Winey '81. The number of students attending the dance doubled to about 60 after 10 o'clock, when party goers began arriving. Some teachers and students were disappointed by the lack of attendance. "I paid $1.50 to get in and left after half an hour because nobody was there," said Carmen Eggers '81. "Students don't enjoy school activities anymore," said chaperone Vonnie Tangeman, industrial arts instructor. "When I was in school, everyone in the school went to the dances." Of the few students who attended, most felt it was a success. Some said it was the best dance they'd ever gone to at AL. John Travolta imitators and their dates cr-azy formed a line and made up their own dance. "We twirled the girls in the air," said Cory Harter 79. "It was really fun. It was crazy!" "Everybody was dancing and getting crazy," said Tim Storey '79. "People weren't wearing suits, so it was easier to dance, and they weren't afraid to make fools of themselves." Other students waited until the following Tuesday to celebrate Halloween. One group gave a surprise birthday-Halloween party for Toni DiBlasi '80. Cookie monsters, tigers, hobos, and Dolly Parton greeted the surprised DiBlasi. Everyone chipped in for dinner, and then watched DiBlasi hunt for hidden birthday presents. Other Halloween events included a toga party for the Swing Choir held in the auditorium. Members practiced c~oreography, then had refreshments and danced. Togas varied from floor length to very short. Some members wore laurel wreaths. "There were quite a few laughs about the togas," said Colleen Lyon 79. Halloween gave students a chance to loosen up, relax, and take off their masks. Raven's steady beat invites dancers to let loose and enjoy the music.

The old lady was the main character in a scene which showed her begging, screaming and literally tearing her hair out, trying to get money from a frustrated and irritated banker, played by Jeff Baker '79. The scene was from "A Defenseless Creature," one of ten vignettes in Neil Simon's "The Good Doctor," presented in a matinee March 8, and in evening performances March 9 and 10. The main character was a writer, played by Larry Kisby '80, who created and narrated stories w hich were enacted by characters on the stage. Many actors said they felt the matinee audience didn't appreciate the play's sophisti cated humor. Rude remarks were ca lled out by students, and the noise level grew so loud that director Jim Mimick had to yell out for the ilUdience to be quiet. "I'd just as soon not perform if they're going to act like that," said Anne Kenny '80, who played in two vignettes. Many students just weren't listening, according to Mimick. "The audience talked during the narration which explained the story," Mimick said. " They never settled down." Some actors felt playing to a bad audience was a good experience for them. "If you're really into the character, you can tune out the audience," said Baker. Audiences began to appreciate the play towards the middle, after they quieted down. "The audience was exceptionally rude towards the beginning," said Kisby, "but I think the kids really enjoyed later parts of the play." A favorite scene was "The Arrangement," in which a father was giving his son a prostitute for his birthday. The audience roared when the father changed his mind, saying "Why don't you wait and grow up next year, son?" school play 19 ( At a m()ment~§ n()tice ,, Lynn and Carrie, we need a skit to go on for "My Man." Can you think of anything?" . "You're crazy!" "C'mon, you have half an hour . .. Hey, know, why don't you use your friends, Bob and Bill Murphy, the twins from Lewis, Iowa? They're here tonight!" "Okay, what kind of skit?" "Something to do with twins. You'll think of something." This scene took place backstage at a performance of Roadshow '79. The skit they finally thought of was about two bored girls on a Saturday night who call a double dating service. They ask for two macho men but end up with the moronic twins. Drama students found they had to improvise many skits to fill in gaps in the show. Organizations were asked to participate in the show, but only the cheerleaders contributed. Because the auditorium was booked for every night except April 7, 9, and 11, the show was literally thrown together in two weeks. Tryouts were two days after the last performance of the school play, which didn't give students adequate time. "This year Roadshow came so fast, no one was prepared," said Anne Kenny '80. With only two weeks to get ready, the cast was plagued with one problem after another. Paper flowers used for the set disappeared, so more had to be made the day before the show. There were only four rehearsals. "We defiThank God I'm a country boy. Pi ckin ' and a grinnin', Matt Mahan, Scott Hunter and Randy Utterback create a country atmosphere as they play a bluegrass tune.

"Some acts could have been more polished, and all together the show would've been smoother." Most acts were forced to prepare individually. "Almost all the acts worked on their own time," said Pam Acklie '80, "which helped tremendously." But individual practices didn't always go smoothly. "Our group could never get together," said Patty Thorn '80. "We'd have practices and only three or four people would show up." Set construction also lacked the preparation needed. "We really needed longer to build the sets," said Jeff Baker '7.9. "We had to use old sets and props instead of building what we needed." But many students felt the show came off a success. "I really enjoyed it. There was a balance of music, comedy, and dance," said Mark Miner '79. The favorite overall act was "The Raven " composed by DaVal Johnson. It was an eeri~ haunting ballad performed by a group clad i~ robes. The lyrics resembled the poem "The Raven" by Edgar Allen Poe, with the line "Quoth the raven, nevermore," repeated throughout. "I could listen fo the Raven all night," said Dave Parramore '79. Overall, students never would have guessed the show was thrown together at such short notice. "I can't remember the words!" whispers Pam Acklie, portraying a confused soloist, to Anne Kenny, her frustrated accompanist. (LEFT) .

Although the dance was held at Carter Lake's W arehouse Ballroom, some students hooted and hollered, stomped and pounded on tables during the crowning ceremonies as if they were back at the A L gym. " Almost everyone was having a good time and getting row dy," said Mary Harrison '80. Seniors said they got rowdy because they knew it was their last dance. " It was sad realizing this was my last Pro m," said Dana Butler 79. " But since it was, I really made the most of it .11 For many students, Pro m was the only night in the school year they could really dress up, so they went all-out. " I spent over a hundred dollars all together," said Lanny Dingman '79. " I figured it was my last year, so why not go all the way!" Prom costs were high fo r many students, especially boys. In a random survey of 50 students, the majority of boys said they spent anywhere from $80 to $1 00, while girls spent a little less, about $60 to $80. Expenses for boys included tu xedos, flowers, dinner, tickets, pictures and, for some, rented cars. Girls didn't have as many expenses, w ith the minimum of a dress and flowers to buy. But even though they dug deep into their pockets, students found Prom w as w orth the money. "I thought it was great the way everybody dressed up," said Jim Pillar '80. " Even though it cost a lot, it w as worth it. It made the dance seem special." Dinner fo llow ed th e dance, th en parti es which lasted into the early morning hours.

(BELOW) silent movie flickered on the audito- ... rium screen as Leo M yerson '29, ~ played an old pipe organ. Afterwards, the audience shouted requests, and he played while they sang old tunes. Soon young voices could be heard joining in. Young and old joined together throughout the days of May 12 through 15 and proved a 50-year age difference had little effect on class spirit. The Class of '29 was here to hold its fiftieth reunion and help send off the Class of '79. Four-hundred and twenty-two anxious seniors listened as retired attorney W illiam Wolfe '29, spoke to them in his comm encement address about setting goals. Wolfe ta lked about the past 50 years-from radio to television, to airplanes, to supersonic jets, to the moon. "It's been a wonderful age," he sa id. He urged the Class of '79 to solve the problems of energy, nuclear power, and war. " Let's make the next 50 years something to be proud 24 graduation of," he said. Before commencement, the Class of '29 held their reunion with the help of the Class of '79. Thirty-five seniors helped provide a tour of the building, a luncheon in the cafeteria, and musical entertainment following the silent movie in the auditorium. The biggest event of the reunion was the establishment of a '29-79 scholarship. When Virginia Kreuger, Class of '29 committee chairman and Lucile H?ffman, Senior Class sponsor: thought of the rdea, they were afraid the seniors wouldn't go for it. But as soon as they heard about it, the Class of '79 thought it was a great idea and contributed $1000 to get it started. At commencement time, the scholarship total had reached over $5300. The enthusiasm of the elder class rubbed off on some '79ers. " I hope our class can have a reunion like this in 50 years. It's so neat to see these people having so much fun while helping other people," said Barb Brandon '79. "Graduates, you must set a goal," commencement speaker William Wolfe tells seniors.

Excitement mounted in the community as the week drew closer. After it was over, the Nonpareil declared it a "tremendous success." But at AL, many students were unaware of Pride Week. The main event, a parade down Broadway on April 29, attracted a swarm of 15,000 spectators. They watched 65 floats sponsored by schools and civic organizations. Cheerleaders, porn pon girls, bands, and horses also joined in the celebration. Although students at other schools were reported to participate enthusiastically in weeklong events such as "Balloon Ballyhoos," and assemblies honoring long-time teachers, many students at AL barely realized it was a special week. Events at AL included a 50's dress-u~ day, a boys versus girls basketball game, a hat day, a mountain music show, and a day on which students could stay home if their parents came in their places. . Few students participated in any of these activities, except the assemblies where they had little choice. Only a handful of students dressed up, and almost no one wore a hat. .No ~arents were seen filling in at school for their children. Many students said they didn't know .in advance about the activities and suggested more publicity in the school newspaper in addition to announcements. An.n Burke '79, Pride Week Committee Chairman for AL, said, however, that publicity was adequate."People just didn't seem to care. I'm not sure what the problem was," she said. Many students thought response was poor because people were confused about how the activities related to Pride Week. "What does a 50's dress-up day have to do with pride?" said Brian Brown '81 . Some students suggested better activities, which included beautifying the community and school grounds. "We should have taken a day off school to pick up trash in the community," said Mark Miner '79. One event was well related to Pride Week, but it involved only a few students. On Civic Pride Day, 40 Council Bluffs students followed city and county officials for the day. AL students served as the fire chief, a judge, the sheriff and a council member. Other Pride Week events included a showc.:.ase held every night at Bayliss Park, hosting about 40 performances from various sch0ol groups, including Al's choirs and bands. Pride Week was an event the community enjoyed, but most AL students didn't get involved.

(BELOW) Fashion flashbacks H igh heels clickety-clicking down the hall ... satin rustling on the dance floor ... boys whistling at girls in straight-leg jeans ... rowdies yee-hawing as they don cowboy hats and boots-these were the sounds accompanying some of the fads and fashions of '79. A nostalgic yearning for the moods of the carefree 'SO's inspired some of the looks. Cuffed, straight-legged jeans and tall, skinny heels teamed up with big shirts and skinny belts to give girls that chic, slim look. "I think straight-leg jeans look really neat," said Tammy McDowell '81, "especially rolled up with high heeled shoes." And the 'SO's influence promoted skirts as one alternative to pants. Their tiny pleats, soft gathers, or wide circles were topped with sheer blouses or soft sweaters. For yet another look, pleated, narrow-legged trousers, white tuxedo shirts, blazers and ties were the components of the menswear style, inspired by the oscar-winning movie, " Annie Hall." "I think menswear on girls looks really sharp," said Susan Miner '81, "but some overdo it a I ittle." For evening, girls wanted ·at least one satin disco outfit. "I think disco outfits are classy for anytime you go to a party or someplace special, but they really don't fit into the school atmosphere," said Cheryl Smith '81. "Jeans are still more prevalent." Of 82 students polled in a random survey, the majority agreed the casual look of jeans and sweaters was still preferred over dressier fashion trends. "Some students, mostly girls, are concerned with fashion," said Neil Price '81, " but boys buy clothes that look good on them." Although boys weren't as concerned with fashion as girls, most students agreed they were dressing sharper. "I think it's a definite improvement that boys are wearing more corduroys and sweaters instead of ragged jeans and T-shirts," said Kathleen McKinley '81. In a casual mood, hiking boots and cowboy hats westernized boys as well as girls. " It seems like everyone has a pair of hiking boots," said Todd Hoden '81 . " They're really comfortable." With so many new styles, students were easily confused as to what was "in." Lorena Swanger '81 , gave one possible reason student'.: were never quite on top of fashion : " I think that we're pretty much in tune with fashion trends, but we wi II never be in the height of fashion because we live in the Midwest and get everything a year later." fashion 33 A favorite place to munch is Taco Bell for Tim Beck, Brigitta Rindborg and Rachelle Mueller after a basketball game.

School's out for two whole days! With this sudden freedom, students were out to party. On Friday night, a good time might have been a football or basketball game, and then out to eat at Marchio's or Spaghetti Works. "It's great going out, chowing down and getting crazy after a game," said Dan Driver '80. Or maybe students spent their time standing in a lo ng line, fighting the wind and snow, waiting to see the super movie everyone was talking about, only to find after reaching the front that the sign said " sold out." Saturday night found many students at parties. "I like to get really wild and have a good time on weekends," said Connie LeMaster '79. Although many students enjoyed drinking, some preferred the company of good friends to alcohol. "When we have a party, it's a lot of fun even without alcohol," said Jana Milford '79.- "We don't need to get high to have a good time." Sunday night wound up activities with d isco dancing at the Depot, which featured teen night on Sundays, when kids fro m 13 to 19 could dan ce w ith o ut bein g served alcoho li c beverages. The Depot offered dance contests each week for ten weeks. Winning couples from each week participated in one large contest w ith prizes of $50, $100 and $200 awarded. " The people involved in the contests reall y got in the disco spirit," said Christie Griff in '80. "They dressed in the latest disco o utfits and could really dance!" With such a w ide variety of activities, students had difficulty doing everything they enjoyed on weekends. Once a mo nth, in-service days were relished as another opportunity for them to have a good time. Skiing at Crescent, ice-skating at a local pond or park, or having a leisurely lunch w ith friends at a local restaurant were favorite activities.

When the bell signaled each lunch period, students began to dig in pockets for 40 cents and scramble to get in long lines. By the time they were served, most had less than 15 minutes left to gobble their lunches. Meat, vegetables, a roll and butter, fruit, and milk constituted a typical school lunch. Most students chose to take advantage of the reasonably priced lunches. A few chose to eat ice cream cones and salads, also offered. "You can't eat anyplace else for 40 cents," said Doug Howe '79. When the favorites-pizza, macaroni and cheese, and chicken-fried steak-were served, lines were longer and plates were licked clean. But when the not-so-favorites- goulash, soup, and fish sandwiches- were served, waste receptacles had to be emptied half a dozen times. "The lunches are reasonable," said Jennifer Kinney '81, "but they're not always good." Almost everybody believed the 20 minutes for lunch was not enough. "You're rushed, especially when there's a long line," said t Myers '79.

To supplement lunch, many students spent morning study halls munching candy bars and sipping pop in the student lounge. Two new restaurants in Council Bluffs, Applegate's Landing and Big Cheese Pizza, provided students with more variety for munching outside of school. " I like sitting in the porch swing and gazebo at Applegate's," said Trisha Burkybile '81. But the favorite of students was the fast-food restaurant, where they co1.ird fill up on W hoppers, Whalers, Big Macs, Triples, fries, rings, malts, sundaes and pies, usually for under $2, and in 20 minutes time. Many admitted to satisfying these cravings at least tw ice a week. Over half of those surveyed preferred Burger King's Whopper to all other fast-food delights. "The Whopper is stuffed with a lot of good things, and the bun isn't bigger than the meat," said Darla Dettman '81 .

Eighty-one of 100 students randomly surveyed said it was the major problem in the United States, and 45 said inflation had a big effect on them. To help beat the high prices, almost half of those surveyed took jobs. Their average salary was $158 a month. " I like working, but I'm doing it for the money," said Mike Branigan '79. "If I didn't have to work, I wouldn't." Many students worked primarily to support their cars. One-third of those surveyed owned their own cars. One student reported spending $208 every six months for insurance, $86 a month for payments, and $60 a month for repairs, maintenance and gas. The average car owner spent nearly half of his income o n his car. Whether or not they worked, students reported that inflation hit them hardest in food, clothes and gas. Many said they had to cut down in these areas to make ends meet. "The high cost of clothes blows my money," said Lu38 inflation cinda Bourne '79.

Teachers who saw the program believed it applied to AL, even though the school's ACT test scores averaged .7 to 1.6 points higher than the national average. The consensus among teachers was that even though students were learning something, they should have been learning much more. "Many of our students graduate with a minimum of knowledge about the subjects they were taught in high school," said Jane Tarson, biology teacher. " It's appalling that serious college bound seniors with GPA's of 3.5 or better are unable to read and interpret material independently, take notes and organize them or perform competently on an essay examination," said Arlan Johnson, English instructor. A wide choice of classes prevented maximum learning, according to many teachers. A total of 149 courses was offered, ranging from the easiest to the most difficult. Students selected their own classes, many of them opting for easier course loads. For example, the enrollment in Basic Composition, an elective Engli sh course, had dropped from 250 students four years ago to 140 students last year. Only nine students took Advanced Composition. But college students returning from school claimed they should have taken more of the basics. "Everybody should take Basic Composition. I didn't have it, and now I have to go back and learn how to write," said Donna Stenberg 78, Northwest Missouri State freshman. Better learning would have res ulted if there had been a balance between requirem ents and electives, according to several teachers. The only requirements were one and a half years of social studies, two years of English, three yea rs of phys ical education and one semester of math or science. "Requirements when I was a student were stricter. We could choose only three elec - tives," said Alice West, DECA instructor. " Now there are too few requirements. I think a happy medium should be met." Other teachers felt that if students were motivated, they could get a good education from the classes offered. "You can get a fantastic education, or you can simply put your time in here," said Orville Miller, math teacher. " If students are serious, they'll have enough initiative to take the classes needed." Teachers generally agreed that paFents were failing in their obligation to motivate their children. "Learning must start in the home. Parents must create a learning atmosphere and interest," said Jeff Haun, industrial arts teacher. Instructors expressed varying philosophies of how to motivate students to learn. Several teachers felt classes had to be fun to prevent student apathy. "My basic feelings are that learning, no matter what the subject is, has to be fun," said Vanessa Wright, typing teacher. " If kids·enjoy the class, they do the work and learn from doing it." Others disagreed. "Learning is not always fun; it's often hard work, and students must be taught that reality. The classroom should be a place where students expect to think, read, write and drill without being entertained all the time," said Linda Smoley, English instructor. Generally, teachers said homework was im-· portant because it provided an opportunity to practice what had been learned . Yet, students revealed that they were given less and less homework as they progressed from the requirements of their sophomore year to the electives of their senior year. In a class of 17 sophomores, most said they had regular, checked homework in at least three of their classes. In similar survey of seniors, most revealed they had little or no homework. Most students surveyed, however, said homework was important. " Ho mework gives you practice and a chance to develo p ski lls that you've been taught," said Colleen Lyon 79. One way administrators planned to begin checking strengths and weaknesses in students' skills was to give check point tests in the third, sixth, eighth, ninth and eleventh grades. The testing was projected to begin in two years. It was fair to say, then, that although the picture at AL was not as bleak as the one CBS painted of the natio n's schools, many local educators believed that not enough was demanded of students. academic achievement 43 44 social studies "Bottle Neck" game teaches students about the procedures and problems of passing a bill.

For a few students, Election '78 was a time for balancing normal work loads with additional hours spent at their precinct headquarters. Lynn Damme '79, and Patty Thorn '80, worked for the Democratic campaign, surveying voters by phone, walking miles to remind voters door to door and putting up posters all over town. "It's exhilarating to be involved and really believe in the candidates I back," Thorn said. But for most students, the election year was their first exposure to the world of politics. Politics class, taught by John llcisin, gave students a chance to gain insight into the political scene. "It's good to take politics because you learn how government runs, as well as interesting facts," said Theresa Swanger '79. Several speakers addressed the class. U.S. Representative Tom Harkin, opposing candidate Julian Garrett, and Craig Whitney '78, who campaigned for his father, discussed the issues. Issues covered during the discussions varied from agriculture in Iowa to the country's economic situation. "Inflation and taxes are issues that are important because their spiraling rates need to be controlled somehow," said Scott Fort '80. After interaction with the candidates, students felt they would have voted if they had been old enough. "The speakers helped me become more interested in government," said Shane Beck '79. Several students were motivated to help campaign after the visits.

This scene occurred regularly in room 208 as speed reading students were timed. As the result of a poll of sophomores in Personal Reading, Dorothy Ricke, English instructor, wrote a new speed reading curriculum, approved by the school board last year. "About 75 percent of my students were interested in a speed reading course," Ricke said. Approximately 180 juniors and seniors took the new class. During one semester the goal was to double or triple each students' reading speed. Students didn't know what to expect. "I thought there would be little tricks and aids to help achieve a goal," said Wanda Haberberger 79. But there were no tricks and aids, just drills and timings. "Speed reading is a physical skill," said Ricke. "When the student knows he is being timed, he pushes to read faster." Timings varying from 2 to 15 minutes were taken regularly. Words read per minute were recorded so the student could see his progress. Each student at least doubled his reading speed. Some set higher goals and met them . One student went from 250 words per minute to 3140 words per minute in one quarter. " I never thought I would be able to read as fast as I can now with good comprehension," said Judy Waters '79. To test students' comprehension, timings were taken from a Science Research Association (SRA) reading lab. After the timings, a ten-question test was given . If the student scored 75 percent or higher, he had good comprehension. Outside of class, students applied speed reading to text books. " I've used speed reading while researching papers for my child care class," said Haberberger, "It's been a great help."

Full of construction paper, laminating paper and countless pieces of equipment, the media center opened its doors to any student wishing to complete a project or be creative. The "Open Door" policy was instituted because John Cairns, media specialist, beiieved the center was for everyone. "The first objective of the media center is to serve the students and faculty," Cairns said. Students liked the policy because it gave them a new opportunity to do things which were impossible in the confines of the regular classroom. Projects ranged from creating and laminating collages and making transparencies, to preparing and fitting sound to slide series.

To assist students and faculty, several students, called designers, were trained in lettering and arranging posters, making video tapes, preparing slides and checking out equipment. "Art students often come up to the center _wanting things laminated," said Ed Rutledge '79. "We show them how, so they can laminate on their own later."

As well as learning how to prepare exotic dishes, students had a good time. "It was really fun to watch Mr. Haun cook; he sure made a big mess," said Mary Hanafan '80. Some learned that they wouldn't like to live in a foreign country. "I like American food a lot better," .said Marilyn Miller '80. At the other end of the hall, Thurman John50 business, home economics son, typing instructor, was taking a mugshot of each of his 115 students. Johnson had two goals for his classes. "My goals are to recognize the best student in the class and to give everybody a chance to succeed," he said. When he tried to think of a way to stimulate student effort, he came up with an unique idea. With the words "Top Ten" and a period number printed on each, five cardboard posters hung on his classroom wall. After one, three or five minute timings were taken, the ten students with the best timings had their pictures placed on the posters from first to tenth place. . Johnson paid for developing the color pictures himself. "Everybody likes to see his picture somewhere for something he accomplished," Johnson said. Most students said the idea helped them. "It makes me try harder to cut down on my mistakes," said Kim Funkhouser '81. "When we take timings, there is an atmosphere of competition," said Barb Cox '81. In such ways, students were provided with unusual challenges to master the practical arts. "You toss it like this," says instructor Jeff Haun as he demonstrates the art of Chinese cooking to Louis Ruiz in Advance Foods.

Cabinet making students built 12 cabinets for the office, the kitchen and the Spanish and art rooms, according to Jeff Haun, Industrial Arts Department chairman. "It was fun as well as good experience," said Rudy Gonzales '79. "For next year, I'm going to check about possibly making cabinets for places outside of the school," Haun said. The newly completed curriculum of semester courses in woods was just one way industrial arts teachers tried to meet the needs of more students. Changes for 1980 were also being made in the metal welding curriculum as teachers planned specialized semester courses and expanded the curriculum from two to three years, Precise measurements are important in drafting, as Tammy Slavin works on her plans.

"Programs are now set up for students w ho want to specialize in something or rotate in a variety of classes," Haun said. "I like the programs because I enjoy making diversified things and I want to be an industrial arts teacher," said Paula Beam '80. As a girl taking industrial arts classes, Beam was not alone. About 15 percent of those enrolled were girls, according to Haun. "One of my best students is a female, and she is very capable of keeping up with the boys," said instructor Jack Boylan. Industrial arts teachers didn't make their classes eas ier for· girls. "The programs are planned on an equality basis, encouraging the student to do what he is capable of, regardless of sex," Beam said. ·\ • Careful observation is important for Terry Carberry as he works on the metal lathe.

(R IGHT) Class for cash and credit W anted: Students interested in good money, valuable work experience and academic credit. Students filling that bill enrolled in Distributive Education Clubs of America (DECA), Trades and Industry (T&I), and Coop Food Service classes. Each course offered class training and on-the-job experience. Coop Food Service, previously offered only at TJ, taught seniors about all areas of food service. Appearance and grooming, sanitation, and pest control were part of the curriculum. Several fast food outlets, grocery stores and restaurants employed the students. Grades students received were based on class and work efforts. Mary Siebrecht, Coop Food Service instructor, gave each student's supervisor an evaluation sheet, on which to rate promptness, responsiveness and cooperation. "Teamwork is the key to a good evaluation," said Judy Marshall '79. "When we are not busy, we are expected to help others w ith their work and never say 'that's not my job.' " Students were trained in more than one area of food service so they could work w here they were needed. This variety of experience helped several students with their career aspirations. " I took this course because I plan to be a restaurant manager," said LeRoy Davis '79. He had progressed from dishwashing to supervising in his job at Bishops. Other students had jobs prior to taking the class, but felt the course would improve their skills at work. " I took the class because I thought it would have a lot to do w ith my job of hostessing at Perkin's," said Tammie South 79. Such basic tenets as " the customer is always right" helped students d ea l w ith jo b situations. Although some people questioned the validity of giving academic credits for job experience, students liked the idea. "It's a good deal getting credits and money for working," said Cindy Heywood '79. And students believed they earned the credits they received. " If people work up to their ability, they should earn something," said South.

Ways to learn for everyone uilders from all over the midwest came to B watch 18 boys from AL bu!ld ~he first s?lar house with a wood foundation 1n the United States. Construction of the house began Oct. 10 under the direction of Richard Buchanan, Career Center instructor, w ho also designed the house. Buchanan listed the advantages of a wood foundation as warmer, dryer basements, elimination of foundation settlings and lower cost. Students thought job openings would come sily because of their experience with the ~~oject. "Contractors from this area wi ll be looking for any of us when they need a wood fou ndation built," said Dan Grieder '79, Ca reer Building student, "because we'll be about the only ones around who w ill know how to build them." When the house was fin ished in Apri l, it was put on the open market to be sold by local realtors. Meanwhile, under another alternative learn ing program, students were getting help from six special education teachers. 56 alternative learning programs Because Publi c Law 94-142, which was passed last year, required public schools to develop programs to satisfy the needs of learning and physica lly disa bled stud ents, two new teachers were added to the Special Education Department. Since the law was enacted, the number of :tudents diagnosed w ith learning disabilities has increased, because teachers have been required to refer such students. " W e are forced to offer a program to meet the needs of any child " said Lucile Hoffman, counselor. ' In the specia l ed ucat ion program, eac h teacher could meet with a maximum of 18 students a day. Together, the six special education teachers saw 85 students per day. c:>ther t~d nt s were placed on a waiting list which continued to grow. It was estimated that there would be four new teachers and a new program next year, according to Hoffman. Other alternative learning programs offered to students included cos m etology classes at Stewarts, and child ca re and auto mechanics classes at Iowa Western.

Two puppets created by Drama I students carry on a conversation just as any flesh and blood people would. (BELO W) New approaches to self expressions D oing everything from squishing clay to rehearsing lines, fine arts students had a chance to ex press and share their individuality. An artist himself and a new teacher, Dave Williams shared his talent with his students in as many ways as possible. To demonstrate the techniques he taught, he brought finished works of his own. " Students are aware of the long process involved in art," he said, "but when they see a finished product, they get anxious to start." He taught his students that art relates to experiences, feelings, and activities. He made them aware, for example, that pinching, poking and twisting clay could be a way to release anger. Because he believed there was no right or wrong way to create art and because of the individuality of the subject, Williams gave each student personal time. "One to one is the way I prefer to teach," he said. "No two students have the same talent, so they deserve individual help." Throughout the year, students' best art pieces were saved for the art fair. The work they did was rewarded with 18 of the 30 first place prizes awarded to high school students. Ineluded in these awards was a Grand Champion awarded to Julie Ozaydin '80 for her pastel portrait of her br?ther. Other awards were given in areas from pnnts to ceramics. In the Drama Department, a new approach was taken in preparing for State Large Group Speech Contest. Theatre students from AL and TJ attended an all-day workshop in Al's auditorium the day before contest. Students from each school performed their contest material; then each performance was critiqued a!'ld discussed. " The workshop w as beneficial to both schools," said Jim Mimick drama instructor. "AL obviously profited as ~ received five I ratings and three outstandings." At contest students performed for an audience which included three judges. To receive a I rating or an outstanding rating, two out of three judges had to feel a perform ance deserved a first place or outstanding award. Students received I ratings for duet acting and mime, and outstanding ratings for one-act play, reader's theater and duet acting. Finished products, Grand Champion awards and I ratings were all rewards w hich art and drama students received for their ef fo rts through the year. OUTSTANDING RATED SPEECH AN D D RAMA STUDENTS.

"I think we need definite deadlines for assignments. "But what about the people w ho are slower than others?" argued one boy. "They shouldn't get penalized." Such conversations reflected student disagreement over the five-year old individualized program. A survey of three chemistry classes showed that two-thirds of the students preferred the individualized program. These students defended the program vigorously. "The individualized program allows the people who want to go ahead to do so," said Connie Sutherland '80. "The teacher is always there if you need help." Susan Tait '80, agreed. "Some people have the ability to go faster, and if you get stuck on a unit, you still have time to make it up, without getting really far behind," she said. Although a minority, students who disliked the program voiced their opinions strongly in lunch-time and lounge conversations or as they worked on difficult labs. "I think it shquld be a regular class," said Pam 60 science and math Acklie '80. " As it is now, too many people get a chance to procrastinate and to fail." Others agreed. "The individualized program makes it easier to jack around," said Teri M urray '80. "If chemistry was like other classes, I think it would be easier to understand." But teachers felt that the individualized class was advantageous because it didn't hold back those who could go faster or push those who were slower. Although students complained about the lack of deadlines and too few lectures, teachers pointed out that deadlines were given if requested and that in the past., students had complained of too many lectures. "It's hard to please them," said Dennis Schmoker, chemistry teacher. Although the department faced some complaint, the course was scheduled to remain individualized, much to students' like or dislike. The Math Department saw student interest grow enough to add a second calculus class and necessitate the purchase of a new digital computer. The computer aided in the teaching of programming because its terminals allowed four students to work at one time. "Are you sure it's right?"

Last fall, when physical fitness tests were first administered, this scene was a common occurrence in almost every P.E. class as students learned how out of shape they were. Student reaction to the tests varied. Some detested them . "Kids who can't do them get embarrassed and don't want to take gym at all," said Penny Poffenbarger '81. "They are impossible to achieve unless you're a superman," said Dan Jackson '80. But others actually enjoyed the tests. "I think they're good! You have to be in physical shape," said Pam Garrett '79. The Presidential patches added incentive for a few students. "Kids enjoy getting the patches.

But even Marsha Massih '80, who wore five patches on her coat, had mixed feelings about the tests. "I think they're a good id ea, but they show only your ability, not how much you try," she said. And many students didn't try. "Forty percent of the time, I tried to better myself and the other 60 percent, I just goofed around," said John Burke '80. But even when they knew students were trying, teachers questioned the value of the tests. "I really don't feel they're a real indication of physical fitness, because of the short tim e in class," said Argersinger. Instructor Kay Hatterman felt that one solution might be to set as id e two weeks to prepare for and take each test. P.E. instructors, on the whole, felt the tes ts should be continued. "The U.S. needs to know how healthy their people are," said Janet Lyle. So students were doomed to be tes ted again in the spring, showing how fit they were after eight months of P.E.

At pep assemblies students saw team enthu siasm and spirit, as players gathered in the center of the gym, started chants, clapped hands, and stood in offensive and defensive formations . Out on the field, though, players worked for themselves instead of as a team, according to coaches. "Players worried about how many ya rd s they gained individually rather than what they co uld do as a tea m ," Ass istant Coach Mike Batten said. Players and coaches cited two other reasons for the poor record . Many said there wasn't enough dedica tion. "Everyone wanted to win, but they didn't want to do the hard work that went with it," said Cory Harter '79. According to Coach Gary Thompson, injuries were also a factor. Ja y Heiman '79, Mark Dix '81, Tom Schropp '80, and Kurt Jo nes '80, each missed some of the last four out of five gam es. The highlight of the season was the TJ game. After coming to schoo l to find "TJ is No. 1" scrawled in orange paint all over the building, everyone wanted revenge. The Lynx ended up on top of a 15-3 victo ry .

These games were typical of the JV-sophomore football season-sophs enthused, playing strong defense; junior varsity defeated, giving up. Although the sophs' 3-6 record wasn't a winning one, it was the best of the Lynx football teams. "The players had super attitudes and never quit," Coach Terrell Clinton said. Runaway losses such as 0-34 against Millard resulted, in part, because the team couldn't play well early in the game. "We could have done better if we had started playing in the first quarter," said Richard Simmons '81. But overall, sophomores were pleased with their season. "Even though I was disappointed with our record, I thought we had a good tea m . The reason we were able to win three games was because we rarely got down on ourselves," said Robin Swanson '81. The JV team, on the other hand, faced many morale problems. " The boys fell flat after the second game," said Coach Clark Allen. The JV team was the team no one wanted to play on, according to Allen, because the makeup of the team changed constantly, as juniors beat out seniors on varsity or replaced injured varsity players, leaving the JV with vacancies. Once, the team was left with only 15 players. "Many times, not having enough players hurt us" said Kevin Sass '81. According to coaches, both teams would have had better records if more boys had gone out. "There are a lot of boys walking these halls w ho should have gone out," Allen said. JV FOOTBALL.

Because both teams lacked experi ence, good practices were important. Long practices paid off for girls, who accumulated a 6-3 fall reco rd, and took home both first and tenth in the Metro Tournament. " Although we goofed around a lot and talked to each other like sisters during practice, we got serious when we had to," said Kim Mann '79. Boys, on the other hand, admitted practices weren't serious enough, and their record showed it, listing only four wins out of nine matches. The highlight of the fall season was the Dodge Park Invitational, in which five golfers placed. Jeff Lytten '80, placed second; Randy Hobbs '79, fourth; Derek M cMains '8 1, tenth ; and Don Luckman '80 and Mike Schropp '79, ti ed for twelfth. On each team, one golfer stood out among the res t. Lytten was the . boys' standout with a 37 average and a low of 34. " Jeff's a good golfer," sa id Coach Phil Nielsen. "H e's one of the best in the state."

The Metro Tournament was one of those other times. Piles of decorations, new red cowboy hats and yells all the way to Omaha couldn't push the Lynx past Millard's strong spiking. They lost both games. " I think we got too fired up and broke our concentration," said Karen Sealock '80. Again before district play, enthusiasm was high. Knowing the addition of 74 new teams in Iowa would allow o nly one team from each district to go to State, the girls wanted to win more than ever. But their battle for districts was lost 2-3 against TJ. After losing the first two games, they rall ied 'to win the next two but by the deciding game, the pressure became too much. " W e got too emotional during the last game and after a few points went by, we lost control of the game mentally," said Zoe Hansen '79. But high spots dotted the season.

" It was hard to get our blood circulating, but by afternoon we started building momentum and played together super well," said Susan Farrell 79.

Players agreed they won because they worked as a unit, with all three forwards gaining points instead of relying o n Draper.

Their most exciting game occurred that week against Lewis Central.

But the Lady Lynx didn't fare as well in sectionals, losing 64-79. "Lewis Central wanted revenge, and we just wanted another win," said Peters. "They played like they were o ut for blood." Other team members said disagreements between players were responsible for their poor performance at sectionals. Draper's never-say-die attitude conflicted with some girls' wi llingness to give up, according to players. But despite these troubles, Draper sustained her scoring average of 42.6, finishing the season sixth in state. "Lisa was the most devoted player o n the team. She would practice until 10 o'clock at night and come early every morning," said Nancy Goecke~ '79. Through her devotion, Draper won the sectional, district and regional free throwing contest, finally fin ishing sixth in state there also.

That spirit of competition between JV players helped make for a winning volleyball and basketball season. Girls came early and stayed late to practice, hoping to gain starting spots on the basketball team. Stephanie Peters '81, came every morning from 7 to 8 o'clock to shoot free throws. Fifteen out of 19 girls were rewarded for their efforts by being allowed to start at least once, and everyone got to play. The team ended with a 9-8 record, with their most exciting wins against TJ, 68-59 and 46-42. "I told the girls they each had to get at-least 20 points against TJ, and they got 23, 22, and 20," said Coach Robert Pettepier. "I think TJ was the best game because everyone averaged the same number of points, and we played as a team," said Linda Farrell '81, "but beating TJ is always a big thing." Spikers also put in extra hours of practice to improve their season. All the players stayed after scheduled practices to develop individual skills, according to Coach Ron Adams. At least ten girls played each game. Their devotion resulted in an early win against Millard, one of the best teams in their division. They beat them two straight games. "We were really psyched up when we met Millard because they were sure they were going to beat us with no trouble," said Amy Anderson '81. But the season ended on a disappointing note after an unexpected loss to Northwest. "We felt we were on an equal caliber with them," said Adams. "We had beaten the same teams, and after winning seven straight games, it was really a letdown." If the spikers had beaten Northwest, they would have been second in their division, but they ended their season third with a 7-4 record.

It was then that they beat Papillion and Harlan and al so becam e the first AL team in many years to be .500 at the middle of th e season. " We showed our desire to win and respect for each other in the Papillion game," said Mike Godfrey '80. "With three seconds left and d own by one, we could have given up, but we devised a play and won." Yet, the team compiled a record of 13 losses and only six wins. llcis in accounted for the losses, citing overpowering talent on the Metro team s. Northwest and Burke, for example, were Nebraska state contenders, and Northwest went on to take the state championship. But even against such teams, the boys gave respectable performances, losing to Northwest by only one and beating Burke by three. "They managed to keep their heads up. They went into tough games feeling they could win," llcisin said. "They never gave up." Yet the team was plagued by inconsistency, som etim es losing to easier opponents by as many as 20 points. When asked why, resigning Coach 11- cisin said, " If I knew the answer to that question, I'd still be coaching next year." The three team standouts were Shawn Palmer 79, Jeff Lytten '80, and Kent Beck '80. Palmer was selected to the Iowa Coaches Association AllStar Team. He was also named to the All-Southwest Iowa and the H o norable Mention All-Metro High School teams. Lytten and Bec k were also cited as members of the Honorable Mention All-Metro Team .

I Most of the team's problems resulted from lack of experience. Half of the team was made up of sophomores. Like other JV squads, the team was at a disadvantage because m embers had to practice with varsity, and never really got to practice as a team. "We were sort of varsity's tools," Crowl said. "If varsity was going to play Millard, we would run Millard's plays, so they would be more fami liar with them." But despite the formidable obstacles facing them, the team improved, shortening their losing point spread from 20 against Prep to 4 against Northwest, and winning two out of their last four games. " The team improved 80 percent throughout the season," Nielsen said. After getting off to a 4-0 record, the sophomore team dropped seven out of their last nine games. According to Coach Terrill Clinton the reason for the late slump was the increasing toughness of opposing t~ams. Like the JV team, poor shooting plagued the sophomores, even though they spent 15 minutes to a half hour extra time o n it during daily practices. Another problem was failing to run the offensive plays as well as they thought they could have, as losses by as much as 33 points showed. But the downhill season didn't depress the sophs. During practices, players hustled and cheered each other on, and the coach reported they never got down on themselves. "The players never went into a game with a losing attitude," Clinton said. "They always went in thinking they could win." Poised high in the air, Todd Shanks attempts to pass the ball to teammate Rick Cochran as Benson defenders ready to intercept.

Support for the team improved steadily. "When we started winning, they decided they had better come and watch," said jess Randall '79. W restlers gave several reasons for their success. "We're really a tight squad," said Lanny D ingman '79. " W e're not just a conglomerate of athletes. We're friends and athletes." "The coach was great, he got alo ng with everyone and really motivated us," said Scott Harding '79. To most spectato rs, the Lynx mad e winning look easy. But behind the scenes, the preparations were grueling. After struggling through 50 sit-ups, 50 push-ups, 25 handstand push-ups and 25 buddy sit-ups, w restlers would practice takedowns, wrestle a match, work on the "tip of the day," and end practices by repeating their opening exercises. On three mornings each week, they ran for an hour in addition to p ractices. Knowing what lay ahead, most team members started getting into shape long before the season began. Many played other sports, ran on their own and lifted weights. Most had to lose weight as well as get into shape. To w~est ~ his ideal weight, Scott Buchholz '79, had to lose 18 pounds.

Opponent schools had their own pools, enabling them to average an hour and a half of practice in the morning and two hours in the afternoon.

From September through April, bowlers paid $2.50 a week for an hour and a half on the lane. The average bowler spent $80 a year to participate. "I think it's kind of expensive, but if you enjoy it, it's worth the money," said Ruth Lynn '79. M ost felt that bowling had a more relaxed atmosphere than other sports. Bowlers were able to joke around and have fun with the opposing teams. " You're not out for blood like the rest of the sports are," said Beth Pettepier '79. "We goofed around a lot with our opponents." But the relaxed atmosphere didn't keep Al's teams from capturing top honors. Team I, made up of Paula Franz '79, Sherri Matthew s '79, and Pettepier, brought home the girls' first place trophy and the high team series of 1842 pins. Kim Swanger '79, M aryanne Evezic '80, Jackie Rongish '79, and Lynn of Team II placed fourth. The boys' team made up of Jeff Stewart '81 , Dan Martin '79, Eric Nelson 79, Brian Carlin '81, and Ray Cooper '80, ended the season in third place. They also had the high team game of 938 pins. Bowlers also received top individual honors. Pettepier ended the season with the highest girls' average of 155 pins. Franz had the highest girls' individual series w ith a total of 578 pins. The boys' most improved average went to Stewart, who gained an average of 13 pins throughout the season. 92 bowling With a handshake, Sherri Matthews receives a trophy from Alice Jeffries for her team 's first place standing.

Cloudy skies threatened rain again and again as volleys were returned and points gained. The weather prevented many practices and cancelled or postponed at least three matches. " It's hard to play in strong wind and cold weather," said Matt Crowl '80. But bad weather couldn't prevent a girls' winning record of 9-2. The girls agreed that Marian was their best match. "We wanted to beat them since they'd beaten us last year and the year before for the Metro Championship," said Lisa Draper '79. But Marian was important for another reason. It was Coach Jan Lyle's one hundredth win in her coaching years, w hich brought her overall record to 100 wins, 23 losses, and two ties. " It' s been just super!" said Susa n Farrell '79. "I think the communication and team unity has been great. We've had a lot of depth." Such team unity was shared by the boys. "We got along great together," said David Urich '79. "Our only conflicts were over choosing which tapes to play on our way to away matches." The boys agreed their best match was the city tournament, where they took the title. Mike Hansen and Matt Crowl took first and second place in singles and Mike Buckmaster and David Urich took third place in doubles. The boys ended their season with a 3-5 record in the spring, and a 4-6 record in the fall. 94 tenn is -- GIRLS' TENNIS WE 8 Papillion 9 Bellevue East 6 Lewis Central 7 Millard 4 South 2 Northwest 7 Gross 7 Central 7 Marian 5 Benson 7 TJ BOYS' TENN IS WE 2 Atlantic 3 Lewis Central 1 Sioux City West 5 Glenwood 1 Red Oak 8 Sioux City Heelan 4 St. Alberts 7 TJ FALL SEASON RECORD THEY 1 0 3 2 5 7 2 2 2 4 2 THEY 9 6 8 3 8 1 5 0 4-6 GIRLS' TENNIS.

"Mr. Haun works on form the most because once we have form, we can do better," said Sheila VanArsdol '81. For both teams, it was a year of learning the basics. The boys needed to rebuild after losing eight key seniors last year. This lack of experience made for a mediocre year in which only a 3-6 record was obtained. Lack of depth and experience also hurt the girls, who didn't have enough people to run in the one and two-mile relays and were unable to win a single meet. Although their records didn't show it, runners worked hard to psyche themselves up for yvinning. " I would sit and listen to Styx for about two hours before I had to go to a meet, or the night before a meet. It helped me to time myself," said Bill Rance 79. "I will sit and tell myself, 'Well, I' ve practiced hard on this, and I am going to win,' /1 said Pam Coleman '79. Haun spoke well of his team's efforts. "The spirit was good. The girls had a lot of ambition and put it all on the line. They were willing to work hard ." Working hard and building spirit paid off as several tracksters made strong individual improvements. Carter Weitz '81 , knocked almost a minute off his time in the two-mile, improving from his first run of 11 :30 to his last run of 10:34.

Facing a season of 24 regular games, one tournament and the state qualifying rounds, the softball team planned to rely on five returning varsity players and four who moved up from last year's junior varsity. They knew one of their strongest assets would be the hitting of Beth Pettepier '79, and Lisa Draper '79. Their batting averages were .329 and .325 respectively from last year's season, which ended with an 18-10 record. Defensively, first baseman Lori Van Pelt '79, brought to the new season a record of six double plays and fewer errors than any other girl who handled the ball consistently. According to Coach Bob Pettepier, the team's speed would also account for many wins, with four underclassmen, Linda Farrell '81, Patty Holeton '81, Lori Gigliodoro '80, and Lorrie Scott '80, running the bases. Pettepier predicted cautiously that the team could easily break a .500 season, but team members expressed greater confidence about their season. "We should have a strong team this year," said Draper. "If we improve in each game, by the end of the season, we should have a good shot at making it to State." The team's biggest battle would be against pitching inexperience. Scott and Denise Allmon '81, fought for the pitching position, one playing varsity and the other playing JV. Neither of the girls had any varsity playing time. The team started practice in late April to be ready for their first game against Shelby May 29. SOFTBALL. FRONT ROW: Patty Holeton, Joan Talty, Lorrie Scott, Linda Farrell, Lori Gigliodoro.

In a jam against Central, Allen Wilson tries to get out of his slump after walking two batters. With only one returning starter, they had to correct some serious problems. Early in the season, poor batting foiled them, but they soon licked the problem with extra practice. Their efforts paid off as they shut out Cathedral 8-0 and Tech 11-0, in a late season double header, scoring all 11 runs in only three innings.

"When we cut down on mental mistakes, we made fewer errors," said Jay Heiman 79. " Instead of eight or nine errors a game, w e cut them down to two or three." Because they were forced to play sophomores on varsity, the team had to work together to develop the talent of these young players. Both Kevin Stopak '81, and Robert Christensen '81 learned to play with fewer errors. " I was really pleased with how well the younger players d eveloped as the season went on," said Coach Ron Adams. Senior leadership, according to teammates, helped the younger players adjust. "If I made a mistake, a senior would tell m e not to let it bother me," Stopak said. "It made me feel better, so I played better." Pitching was one of the team's greatest assets, according to Adams. Chuck Hayes 79, started off slowly with an 0-4 pitching record, but he improved to finish with a 4-5 record. In a rain shortened three-inning game against Tech, Hayes struck out all nine batters. Against Cathedral, Allen Wilson '80, struck out 13 batters and went on to achieve a 4-2 record. Like the varsity, the JV team suffered from errors and inexperience. Although the team, comprised almost entirely of sophomores, made fewer errors as the season went on, they could compile o nly a 1-7 record. Most players attributed their losses to severe defeats earl y in the season. "Losses like 8-1 and 7-0 really lowered o ur mo rale," said Todd Madsen '81.

The big winners turned out to be 14 carefree players who called themselves Highway 61 and won the championship title in a see-saw battle against the Cheezy Riders. But almost all the players felt they were winners as members of an intramural team. Lanny Dingman '79, of Highway 61 said it best: "You don't have to win to have a good time." And having a good time was what it was all about. To keep fun in the games, many standard procedures were thrown out and rules were relaxed. "When we wanted to play, we would just yell at someone," said Steve Benton '79. "If he didn't come out, when he went by, we would just pull him off the court." Teams cooked up their own special way to add laughs and build team spirit. The Cheezy Riders assigned nicknam es like Fuzzy and Cheezy, and Highway 61 held regularly scheduled parties to help unite their team. " After every game, we would find a house to go to and sit down with some beer and talk about the game," said Phil Thomas '79. Each team had their own most memorable game. For the Spurs it was loosing to the Cheezy Riders 101 to 26. For the Cheezy Riders and Highway 61, it turned out to be the 43 to 38 championship battle after which the losers, Cheezy Riders, bought a keg for Highway 61 victors. Boys gave various reasons for joining an intramural team . Some were already out for another sport. "I went out for wrestling and couldn't practi ce for the basketball team, too," said Bill Meadows '79. " lntramurals let me play without the hassle." For most intramural players, work was a top priority, and their long job ho urs didn't allow them time for varsity basketball. " I just didn't have time to work and practice too," said Benton. "With intramurals, you only practice w hen you want to." Others said they just didn't have the talent for interscholastic ball. " I knew I wasn't good enough for varsity basketball. There were so many guys out better than I was that I just would have ended up sitting on the bench al l the time," said Chris Higginbotham '81. "Intramural ball gave me a chance to play." Whatever the reason, the low pressure, all-out-good-time intramural idea helped make the school year special for 55 boys.

Although they were "fired up" and ready to win, the rookies knew winning wouldn't be easy as a first-year team .

An additional cost of $2.25 per player covered an association patch and registration, according to Spooner. Members also bought their own uniforms and cleats. But plans for Al's team were almost cut short when legal responsibility for accidents became an important question. Soccer players were originally told by Athletic Director Don Moxley that they couldn't work out in the halls or dress in the locker rooms. Soccer Club president Shawn Gibson '80, said the problem arose because of school liability if someone were hurt. Eventually the problem was solved when a constitution was written releasing the school from all liability. Permission had to be given if the soccer team wanted to practice at school due to conflicts in using the Valley View playing field. Ninety-minute practices w ere held on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays at Valley View Park.

It was no ordinary day for the two thousand mentally handicapped students who competed in Iowa's Special Olympics in Des Moines. Twenty-three AL students competed against over 700 students from Southwest Iowa in the SO-yard dash, 220-yard race, broad jump, high jump and softball throw. They captured 13 first place ribbons in the sectional Special Olympic Games. "I felt good and was surprised that I w on a first place," said Diane Lee '81. After winning first place ribbons in sectionals at Council Bluffs Field, each student was able to enter state competition. In Des Moines, AL students took seven first place medallions . Divided into age categories, events included the broad jump, high jump, 50- and 220-yard dashes, 440-relay and softball throw. In the girls' and boys' broad jump, a confident Judy Sanford '79, leaped a winning distance of 6'11" while Mike Mullinex '81, won with a jump of 7'3". "I wasn't nervous or scared," Sanford said. Sanford and Darrell Fauble '79, also captured first place medallions in the girls' and boys' 50-yard dash with times of 7.6 and 6.1 seconds. In the 220-race, Fauble and Sam Richardt '81, nabbed first places in two age groups, as Tom Kron '81, snared the gold medallion in the softball throw. "The students were really up when they came back," said Twila Pettit, special education instructor. " The anticipation for next year is great and the students' attitude is 'I know how I can improve myself.'" After state competition, first place winners had a chance to be one of the 50 Iowans who traveled to Brockport, New York, for the national Special Olympics. Special education instructors and coordinators believed that after competing and winning in the Olympics, students gained a more positive attitude toward their studies. "It has given them a little motivation for life, and that motivation carries over into the academic aspects," said Bob Ro sie, Bluffs physical education consultant. One, Two, Three-go!

Such was the average cheerleader's routine on tri-weekly practice mornings. Cheerleaders spent as much as 20 hours a week practicing, attending games and arranging outside activities for athletes. They devised events such as a come-as-youare breakfast and a spaghetti dinner for varsity football players and a barbecue dinner for the volleyball team. "I thought the dinner was great. It was really nice of the cheerleaders to give it to us," said Susan Farrell '79, volleyball player. Cheerleaders also spent time learning new cheers introduced at camp where they won six awards. "The cheers were short, so the crowd would cheer with us," said Jill Searcy '79. " We used more boogie moves, not just stiff movements," said Captain Cathy Sealock '79. To pay for new uniforms and decorations for let~s hear it f • the football field, cheerleaders arranged moneymaking projects such as car washes and bake sales. They tried to promote school spirit by wearing red or blue cowboy hats. "The hats were something different from past years," Searcy said. Yet with all the time cheerleaders spent, they felt students didn't understand how many hours they worked. "We kept pushing ourselves; we didn't let the feeling of tiredness show through," Sealock said. But most cheerleaders thought the time was well spent. "When you see everyone get involved, the time and effort are worth it," said Ellen Hansen '80. "I'd really be bored if I didn't have games to cheer at, and practices and different activities to go to," said Tracy Brummer '81.

Fulltime- not just halftime I n a spectrum of red, white and blue, 20 pairs of porn pons swished to the beat, and 40 legs kicked in unison as porn pon girls boogied into staggered lines and V shapes. It all looked so easy. But performances were only a small part of being on the squad. Most students never saw the girls stumble into practice at 7 o'clock every morning, and dance for an hour while wrestlers ran around them and basketball players shot through them. "There's much more to porn pon than simple arm movements and ball changes," said Julie Madsen '80. Prior to early morning practices, several girls would spend up to 20 hours selecting music and choreographing each dance. Then ca me the hard part-teaching. Frustrating commands filled the gym ... "Keep your arms straight! ... Turn your heads . . . Come on, get into it!" The squad often had to perform at several basketball games a week. "It really gets tough when you have to make up two or three dances 114 porn pons in one week," said Shelly Hunter '81. To learn new dances, most of the squad attended an Iowa State University summer camp. Each girl paid $60 for the week. The squad was split into groups, each learning four dances. But the dances were taught so quickly that the girls forgot many of them by the time school began. After such effort, the girls were disheartened by complaints that they used the same steps over and over. "People should stop criticizing long enough to realize how hard it is to make up dances between every home game," said Toni DiBlasi '80. With all the hard work and criticisms, the girls needed encouragement. Everyone agreed sponsor Carol Murray provided that better than anyone had in the last three years. Murray went to almost every practice and supported the squad at games and parades. "She's filled with enthusiasm and cheerfulness that helps all of us realize that someone does appreciate what we are doing," said Julie Oden '79.

PePPY start soon turns sour B leachers wobbled at Creighton Prep's field as Pep Club members flashed red, white and blue porn pons, stomped, and shouted " Let's Get Rowdy," convincing the crowd looking on that an enthused Pep Club had finally been started. But a few months later, only three members cheered at the home basketball game against Gross, their presence almost unnoticed. Just as past years' Pep Clubs had faded out after the first few football games, the '78-'79 club wasn't any different, despite unusual motivation and enthusiasm from new sponsor Vanessa Wright. By basketball season, members had dwindled to less than half of the original 42. Members who remained active w ere disappointed in those who left. "I don't like it. If they didn't want to stick with it, they had no business joining," said Debbie Telpner '79. But remaining members kept busy. Because a system of rewards had been used successfully at her school, Wright introduced a po int system here. Members received 20 points fo r each 116 pep band, pep club game they attended, 15 points for each club meeting and 25 points for each event such as a play or open house. A trip to Worlds of Fun rewarded each member who earned 2500 points by May. To earn money for the trip, members peddled everything from football butto ns and basketball ribbons to candles, baked goods and a D ecember movie, " The Doberm an Gang." " W e've been really busy this year; last year w e hardly did anything," said Cherry Lieber '79. While Pep Club kept busy, Pep Band held practices every Tuesday after school during basketball season to be ready to entertain the crowds at all home sports events. " It's fun, and it gets you into the game," said Peggy Rickert 79. When members weren't practicing o r performing, they helped raise money by selling items from a gift boo k, and cheese and sausage from Hickory Farms. Proceeds went toward items for the band and a trip to Adventure Land at the end of the year. ,, Thundering sounds reverberate through the gym as Sandra DeWitt pla ~s the .tuba during a basketball pep rally.

" and "Take a number, I'm next in line to talk to Smoley!" created chaos in room 224 as yearbook and newspaper staffs rushed to meet deadlines. Deadlines proved to be the main problem of the inexperienced newspaper staff. "Some kids just don' t real ize the importance of deadlines," said assistant editor Kelly Hamilton '79. " In some classes, students can get by with turning in assignments late, but in newspaper, a deadline is your last chance." Others expressed different views. "We' re close to each other, and it's hard to reprimand a friend for putting things off," said editor Lynn D amme '79. Deadlines were especiall y tense because the staff wanted to live up to the All-American Award, which arrived in October, honoring the '78 staff. " I felt great when I heard about the award . We worked hard and deserved it," Hamilton said. Several believed the All-American should be a goal again. "We have the potential, but if some don't start getting excited and making All-American their goal, we don't have a chance," said sports editor Carrie Ballenger '79. In March, the staff was awarded its second AllAmerican. Soon after the rating arri ved, three staffers won National Key writing awards, and together, the newspaper and yearbook staffs won 28 awards at Northwest Missouri State University' s J-Day. " We were thrilled w hen everything came together after a rough year," said Kathy Irwin, National Gold Key w inner. " The Crimson and Blue" received a first class rating for the second year. " I think the staff can be proud," said advisor Linda Smoley. " I think the competition is even stiffer in yearbooks than in newspapers." The yearbook staff also had difficulties w ith deadlines. " Changing our copy from single to double column made fitting pi ctu res difficu lt and doing our ow n headlines took more time," said co-editor Denise Peters '79. But even w ith deadline fru strati ons, staffers felt their work was rewarding. " Know ing people were reading what I wrote made me fo rget all the problems," said yearbook sports editor Nancy Goecker ' 79.

(R IGHT) I A new home away f·rom home T housands of miles from home, fQreign exchange students gazed down from 30,000 feet in the air to glimpse their first sight of the U.S. After exchange students arrived in Iowa, Foreign Student Club helped them adjust. Some adjustments were easy. "I was used to going to school on Saturday in Switzerland and the first Saturday here, I had to find something to do," said Steve Huber '79. Other adjustments weren't as pleasant. "The pace around school is too fast. We had 45 minutes for lunch in Denmark, and here there's only 20 minutes," said Lone Nielsen '79. "People in school here are also more formal with teachers," Neilsen said. "In Denmark we call teachers by just their first or last name, never Mr. or Mrs." But one student detected a relaxed atmosphere. "The whole school is like one big family, because of so many activities," Huber said. To learn as much as possible about the U.S., Foreign Student Club encouraged students to participate in extracurricular activities. For example, Birgitta Rindborg '79, joined the cast of the musical as an Ozian, and Marie Dahl '79, started her first bowling season with an average of 94. "Here I belong to more organizations, like Key Club and a youth group at church," Huber said. "People in Switzerland usually don't belong to so many organizations." "I go to debate tournaments here, and at home we don't even have debate and speech contests," Nielsen said. Another activity they enjoyed was their first Thanksgiving dinner, which Foreign Student Club provided. Foreign Student Club included exchange students in other activities, such as their room at the Squirrel Cage Jail Haunted House, where they placed first, winning $600. The prize money was used for Christmas Dance decorations and band. Profits from the dance and other projects helped support the exchange student program. "I really appreciate what AL does for foreign students," Nielsen said. Eyes wide open, Birgitta Rindborg allow Patti Ryerson to apply eye liner for " The W izard of Oz."

Growini! while they i!ive S kiing down the high snow-packed slopes of Colorado, serving at the Jennie Edmundson front desk and helping the lost find their way were some activities of Courtesy and Key Clubs. Colorado Springs was the site of a Key Club conference. Members who could afford it went for a weekend to listen to speakers and hold panel discussions. Winding down the slopes provided relaxation afterwards. For the first time in Al's history, the club had a district ,governor, Terry Duermyer '79. He set up a Ralston Key Club and helped organize the Nebraska-Iowa District Convention in Omaha, arranging accommodations, meals, entertainment and speakers. " I felt pretty proud about being elected," Duermyer said. Key Club served the school and community. Twice a month they manned Jennie Edmundson's front desk and once a month they cleaned the Masonic Temple after blood donations. For Al 's new entrance, they purchased $170 worth of rosebud trees. To rai se money, they sold M & M's and raffled off a tape player. Many Key Club members found they grew as 122 courtesy, key clubs they met new people and learned how to get along with others. Going to parties was a good way to get to know others, whether they attended the first year anniversary of Ralston's Key Club or met downtown Kiwanis. "I wasn't so nervous; I found myself opening up to people better," said Kim Hinman '80. Though Key Club members found the club exciting, they heard others put it down. "I wish the kids wouldn't knock it because most of them don't know what it is about," said Duermyer. While Key Club was serving the school and community, Courtesy Club remained the official hostesses for the school. At Open House, thirtytwo girls showed parents to their child's next class and brought goodies to teachers who were stuck in their rooms. They also ushered and handed out programs at plays. The girls were always ready to help, usually with warm, friendly smiles. "We grow to appreciate people more," said Debbie Coffey '79, "and serving seems to put ourselves and the people we usher into a good mood for the activity."

French Club, for example, sampled unusual delicac ies ranging from snails to cherry-filled crepes, at the French Cafe. " I thought the atmosphere was really neat," said Marsha Massih '80. "The waiters were French and food was prepared with many different sauces." German Club also experienced lea rning through foods as they tasted meringue cookies and cake made w ith coffee grounds at their Christmas party. Music provided another look at foreign cultures. French Club members attended a rock concert at UNO, featuring Beauso leil Broussard. Sponsored by the National Theater of the Performing Arts, Ltd., the group had won a Prix de la Jeune Chanson (French Grammy) and had a number one album for eight months. M embers also watched French-Ca nadian dancers at the Civic Auditorium. " It was educational and interesting to learn Canadian history through folk dances," said Mary Ann Knott '81 . Spanish Club experienced a touch of Spain when they saw Mexican flam enco dancers perform at Boystown. Creating a spherical Mexican pinata form ed with balloons, w ire and brightly-colored crepe paper for their Christmas party, mem bers learned about Mexican traditions. " It was just a big ball w ith Merry Christmas in Spanish o n it and filled with candy," said Derek M cMains '81. "The funniest part was when Jeff Ouren about hit Mr. Lara when he swung at the pinata." In addition to educational activities, French, Spanish and German Clubs enjoyed outings just: for the fun of them. French Club, for example, went ice-skating at Ak-sar-ben. " It was fun because we chased each other all around the rin k, and I was the only one who had skated before," said Teresa Clark '81. Spanish Club's initiation w as filled w ith fun when new members were required to dance a solo for 30 seconds or eat baby food. "Ever - body felt pretty embarrassed, especially the ones who had to dance, but most of the people hammed it up," said Kathy Shill '81.

As the doors open, they hear only the tapping of typewriters, the clicking of computer keys and the hushed silence of an office busy at work. They have entered the world of big business, even if only as observers. Field trips, such as this one to Woodmen Tower, allowed members of Future Secretaries of America to view the world of business. "There's more to an office than I thought," said Jennifer Christians '80. " The number of machines surprised me." Before the trip, Pat Hood, a publi c relatio ns person from Nebraska College of Business, talked to the club about finding jobs. To earn money,. members sold candles and jewelry at Christmas. With the profits, they prepared a food basket for an elderl y couple and donated money to the Salvation Arm y. " J think it's reall y good to help people," said Angela Holly '80, "especially people w ho need things because they don't have enough money." Although not as large a club as FSA, Homemaking Club kept just as busy. For service, they cleaned the school trophy case and made Christmas decorations for Bethany Lutheran Nursing Home. To have a good time together, they held a Sarah Coventry jewelry party, a Christmas gift exchange at Pizza King and a cosmetic party. "We have a good time w hen we're together," said Lucinda Bourne '79. " We enjoy helping the school and community and having our parties." To make the eight-member club a success, they brought friends to their gatherings. " I think we are just as successful as large clubs," said Darla Powell '79.

To raise money for the trip, members set off on a fund raising spree not equaled in years by a club of their size. They washed cars; raffled huge, homebaked, heart-shaped cakes; sponsored the zany Jerry Lewis movie, " Three On A Couch"; and sold Valentine ca rn at i o n s bearing romantic messages. " I really like the different activities," said Colleen Lyon '79. " It feels good to be supported by students instead of going into the community to ask for money or using our own money." On the trip, members toured the Museum of Science and Industry, the Field Museum, a planetarium and an aquarium on March 30, 31 and April 1 . " It was so much at once, so much to be learned," said Kathy Fennell '79. "And Chicago is a different world from any place around here. It was a great experience." The club also enjoyed the outdoors together. One night, they waited six hours by a fire on Kathy Fennell's farm for stubborn stars to come out. Another time, they used the farm's gentle hills and pastures for sledding. Not as active as Science Club, Electronics Club members studied ham radios in an effort to get their licenses. Members also studied computer programming and toured local radio station KQ98 for a behind-the-scenes look at electronics. " I joined the club to learn," said Kevin Maurice '81 , "and I am learning."

(RIGHT) learning the art . of communication W andering through unfamiliar halls covered with posters boasting Yellowjacket fame, Student Council members toured rival TJ. Instituted by Superintendent Raj Chopra, the exchange gave members a chance to experience life at TJ and to open communications between schools. "It was a good way to get better student relationships because it helped break the ice, and at least the students got to know each other," said Cory Peters '81. But communication between the AL Student Council and its own student body wasn't f$OOd. According to a random poll, only three out of 30 students were aware of the council's activities. "If they do something, they ought to report it. Otherwise, as far as anybody knows, they're not doing anything," said Peggy Rickert '79. Homeroom reports were supposed to be made after each Student Council meeting, but few of the members actually reported. " There are three Student Council members in m y homeroom and they don't report anything," said Julie Smith '81.

" Some students go to the meetings, and that's as far as it goes," said Susan Farrell '79, Student Council president. "If members aren't excited about something themselves, they don't talk about it." Other members said they weren't organized to inform students. " If we distributed the minutes, the interested student w ould find out what we're doing," said John Jones '80. Debate Club, on the other hand, practiced the art of communication successfully as they debated energy and won nine trophies in tournaments. "Debating helps you learn a lot about the government," said Bernie Duis '80. Competing against up to 50 teams in a tournament, junior varsity debaters won one second and two third places, and novice w on tw o first places, one second, one fourth and two sixth places.

(BELOW) Loaded with moneYraisins ideas S upplied with seemingly endless bags of sponges and boxes of candy, some Thespian members spent over 75 hours trying to rai se money for their trip to Minneapoli s. Moneyraising brought man y fru stration s. Members spent a day decorating the auditorium for a junior high disco. " We even had a mirrored ball and a light show," said John Burke '80. But only 40 attended, giving Thespians a profit of a mere $40. In another unsuccessful effort, members sold ti ckets for two evening shows of " Tommy," hoping for a large profit. But the crowd was so small that after paying for the film, Thespians made no profit at all. They also gave a children's birthday party, complete w ith clown costumes and entertainm ent, but it didn't get advertised enough to make much money. " It wasn't successful, mainly because people didn't do their job," said Michelle Arterburn '80. Finally, there was enough money for o nly eight members to go to M inneapolis. They toured the Guthrie Thea tre and attended a workshop by the Orrea M ime Troupe. They saw plays such as "Camelot" and "What's up yours, Doc?" produced by theatre wo rkshops. "I learned a lot of things about the theatre. We met a mime artist who taught us techniques," said Penny Poffenbarger '81. Th espians also toured junior high s, performing scenes from the all-school play to promote the Drama Department. Some Thespians also ushered over a dozen tim es at the Orpheum, viewing plays and stars, such as "The Wiz," and Hal Holbrook. "I felt important to be around international stars," said Pam Acklie '80. Although National Honor Society was less active than Thespians, they tried new activities. "We wanted to help the school and do omething besides being on the record," said Jim Atkinson '79. Members baked over 400 cupcakes and charged students for a signed Christmas message sent with each cupcake. Their profits helped NHS contribute $25 to the Goodfellows, $25 to the Salvation Army and close to $-WO to the school shrubbery fund. thespians, national honor society 133 SWING CHOIR.

But for Swing Choir such performances were cut from almost 50 last year to between 15 and 20 this year. The decrease was due, in part, to fewer requests for performances from Council Bluffs organizations. Many choir members w ere glad they were not as busy because they w ere involved in many different activities, such as football, tennis and drama. "You can't have an up year every year," Spann said.

You never expect 1t to happen again, because it's a once in a lifetime experience," said Letha Hansen '80. Such were the impressions of the three AL orchestra members who advanced to All-State. To advance to All-State, members had to compete with over 6000 students for one of 205 chorus, band and orchestra places. "If you want to make All-State, you have to practice as much as you possibly can," Hansen said. Competition became easier for Terry Crompton '80, as he advanced to All-State for the second year in a row. "The second year, going to All-State was more like something I had to do than an honor," Crompton said. "Yet, I was impressed with the talent up there." Cathy Fletcher '80, violinist, also advanced to State. "It was great to be with people from all over the state," Fletcher said. "It was amazing to see students playing such difficult music." Orchestra members also prepared music for the Scholarship Concert. The profits gained provided a scholarship for a senior musician to be selected by orchestra members. In addition to preparing for All-State and the Scholarship Concert, the orches tra provided music for "The Wizard of Oz." Members practiced for a month before joining evening play rehearsals. "It was a challenging experience. W e practiced for 30 hours in addition to practicing during class," said Stephanie Peters '81 . Although not in the limelight as often as orchestra, Sophomore Ensemble, a group of 35 sophomores who worked together outside of their regular choir classes, also spent time preparing for concerts. They performed only a few times because they didn't organize until January. They sang at Baccalaureate and the Spring Concert. In addition to singing with Sophomore Ensemble, seven girls perform ed in a group they formed in junior high. Calling themselves the Entertain ers, they sang at luncheons, reunions and talent shows. "We've been singing together for two years because we enjoy going out and singing for people," said Jackie Gioiello '81 . The Entertainers hoped to make a record at the end of the year.

They also played in the Veterans Day and Columbus Day parades, bringing home first and third place awards. "I was disappointed w ith placing third," said Paula Ryan '79. " It would have been our third in a row for number one." After football season, Concert and Stage Bands got down to business. They played in the All-City Concert with bands from TJ and St. Albert. All were directed by Jimmy Howard Reynolds from Iowa State University at Ames. " He was tough, but it was a good experience," said Brian Lancial '80.

"The All-State audience is probabl y the biggest crowd I've performed in front of," Rance said. " It was great." Four others were elected by director Jim Misner to play in the All-Southwest Iowa Honors Band. Steve Benton played alto sax, Kim Rasmussen, flute, Janice Butts, clarinet and Tim Wilhite, contra bass clarinet. The bands managed to take time out for a little fun, too.

Nevertheless, by the end of his fourth year in motocross, Rick thought his money had been well spent.

He mounts his skateboard and starts the wheels rolling. Pushing off, his body low and arms waving, he starts down the concrete mountain. He swerves to the bottom and back up again. His body sways as he eases into the concrete formation resembling a half pipe. Sizzling wheels plunge rapidly into the bowl, as he goes around and around at Concrete Wave's wild terrain on 84th and Grover. Nick's interest in skateboarding began in 1976, when neighborhood kids were riding them. He built his first skateboard of wood and roller skates. After practicing in his basement to keep his balance, Nick began practicing once every three weeks at Concrete W ave. But transportation confined him to neighborhood hills and schoolNick Kurt has a great time on his yards for daily two-to-three hour practices. Finally, last summer, he built a plywood ramp in his backyard. "I built it because it gave me more variation than street skating," Nick said. By looking at magazines and television and by watching other skaters, Nick learned stunts such as the Gorilla Grip, in w hich the skater takes his shoes off, grabs each end of the skateboard with his toes and jumps in the air. Nick tried teaching his mother and sisters to skateboard, but they didn't get the hang of it. "Mostly all it takes is practice, if you have the balance," Nick said. Because Nick had to pay $150 for two skateboards, he began building and selling boards for extra money. 11 1 sell them for $15 to $20, depending on how much time I put in," he said. As snow and ice covered the Wave during winter, Nick said he just dreamed about the spring. sophomores 147 Dawn Ri ckabaugh Raymond Ri ef Eileen Rin g Chu ck Rodenburg John Rogers Nancy Rogic T o ny Rois Tracy Ronnfeldt G ail Roush D enise Ro y er Conn er Ryan K evin Sass Pat Sc h erle Chris Schulz Kent Schupp Li sa Schwarzkopf Kar en Seid el Jerry Seyler T odd Sh anks Troy Shaw Julie Sh ea Ros ie Sh ea T ara Sh erman K athleen Shill Dani elle Shoe m a k er Ri c h ard Simm o ns Ja mes Sinn ott Tammy Slavin Jodi Smith Lau ra Smith Mark Smith Me lody Smith 148 sophomores Nature girl J ennifer Kinney '81, is more at home in the woods than in her living room watching television. Jenny has been a Girl Scout for nine years, serving as a group counselor at Camp Neyati for the last four years. Activities at the camp continue through the year, so instead of spending winter hours in front of the TV, Jenny braves the outdoors to camp and teach basic camp skills, such as building a fire, cooking, and identifying birds and animals. "I think it's really satisfying to help little kids learn something," Jenny said. On winter weekend campouts, Jenny's girls sing folk songs around the campfire, roast marshmallows, sled and just have a good time. "With the challenge it provides to keep warm, and the opportunity it offers to get away from it all, winter camping gives me a feeling of independence," Jenny said. In 1978, Jenny gained added independence when she was one of 40 girls in the nation to go to Big Horn, Wyoming, where she spent two weeks trail riding, backpacking, and camping. "It gave me the experience of working with others as a team, and enjoying fun and fellowship," Jenny said. Ready io start a toasty fir e, Jenny Kinney ga t h e rs twigs near h er h o me.

Two months atter the fall, she was practicing eight to ten hours a week at Skate Town in Omaha. That summer, Cathy began competitive skating and has been competing for four years. She has won 15 trophies, 28 medals and 5 plaques, ranging from first to third place. In June of 1974, Cathy began taking lessons once a week. "My mom thought it was a passing phase," she said, "but she knew I was serious when I began going to the rink six times a week." Cathy sa id she likes skating because she can incorporate music, dance and athletic ability in one sport. "I didn't have the time or money to take lessons for all three, but skating gave me a chance to do them all," she said. Cathy also said she enjoys the recognition she receives as a skater. " When I was in grad e school, I played the violin, but no one seemed interested," Cathy said. "Competitive skating, on the other hand, is something many people admire." Skating has given Cathy a chance to travel widely. She has competed in Indiana, Texas and Colorado. Of her first trip to St. Paul, Minnesota, Cathy said, "I think I was more intrigued with the trip than the skating." Cathy looks forward to competing in the nationals before going to college, where she plans to major in fashion designing o r music. 150 juniors Karen Belt Lori Berg Denise Black Don Blakeman April Bolton Craig Bothwell Roy Boyden Rhonda Bozek Cindy Brandon Lori Brooks Mike Brown Robin Brown Scott Brown Teresa Brown Jeanne Brunow Mike Buckmaster Bonita Burke John Burke Teri Burke Julie Button Barb Cain Dan Cain Luann Camp Ron Carberry Steve Carberry Penny Cary Lori Ceder Dana Chapman Lisa Christenson Jennifer Christians Cath•y Christiansen Dustin Christiansen Sharon Coenan Rhonda Cox Terry Crompton Matt Crowl Blair Cudmore Jane Dale Maggie Daley Bill Denny Toni DiBlasi Susan Dressel Dan Driver Doug Driver Bernie Duis Brenda Duncan Christy Durham Steve Eicher M ark Eigan Kathy Embry Julie Espinosa Susan Eyberg Sherri Fay Jim Ferguson Penny Flanery Cathy Fletcher janice Fl inn Cesar Flores Scott Fort All ison Gates Darcy Gearhart Shawn Gib on Lori Gigliodoro Charles Gilbert juniors 151 Single ring ceremony ends on '' I n this corner, wearing red and white, weighing 119 pounds is the winner of the Junior Golden Gloves . . .

When he reached the fifth grade, his dad, a newcomer to boxing, started coaching him. They spent 12 hours a week building Rick's endurance. "Dad is behind me and boxing," Rick said, " but he doesn't want me to get serious." Rick plans to follow his dad's advice and not go pro, even though he has won 80 of the 100 matches he has boxed, captured the 1978 championship and placed twice as junior state runner-up. Rick is usually nervous when he enters the ring, but he said those feelings disappear when the bell rings. "All I think about is winningwhat I'm going to do next and how to do it," Rick said. Amidst the ringside shouting, he hears only his parents, who come to every match they can, yelling support as loudly as possible. "They make me want to try harder," Rick said.

They quieted to listen to Randy Utterback '80, play folk tunes on his guitar. His mellow sounds could be heard in a number of places ... in a warm, sunny park on a Sunday afternoon, at a good friend's party on a Friday night, or at home on a relaxing evening. Listeners said Randy has a natural way with music. " He's free with his music . . . really relaxed and natural," said Julie Oden '79. Although he took guitar lessons in 1971 and continued them for three years, Randy plays mostly by ear. "After three years of practice, playing started to come naturally," he said. Music provides a way of expressing feelings that I couldn't express any other way," he said. To express his unique feelings, Randy has composed five songs dealing with past experiences. One song expressed his regrets about a girl he met, but whose name he never kn ew. His interest in guitar was inspired by Johnny Cash and Glen Campbell, who play acoustic guitars. "I like the sound of acoustic rather than electric guitars because they have a more mellow sound," Randy said. "I'm just a flat-top picker."

Dan Wohlers '80, is ready to meet his Judo competitor. He bows and the contest begins. As Dan throws his opponent into the air, the foe falls, smacking the Tatami. After holding his contestant's body still for 30 seconds, Dan is declared the Amateur Athletic Union Champion. Such wins are not unusual for Dan, a brown belt in Judo. Dan has been the Midwest Champion, and the second runner-up in the Junior Olympics. "I was looking for the gold medal, and I got the silver," Dan said. Nervous before each match, Dan gets psyched up to win. "I get butterflies," he said, " so I warm up and think about winning." Involved in Judo for ten years, Dan has traveled to New York, California, Colorado, Indiana and several midwestern states to compete. " I love the competition, I love to win, and I love to travel," he said. Dan's dad missed the chance to be involved in Judo himself, so he got Dan started. "Dad wishes he would have done it," Dan said. "He loves the sport." One reason Dan has stayed with Judo is his dedication to his instructor, Lou Carta. " Lou has taught me everything," Dan said. " I'm still perfecting some of the thousand possible throws." His ultimate goal is to become a m ember of the Pan American team, to travel around the Flipping Lou Carta is Dan Wohlers' way of practicing for a black belt at Iowa Western world and to be a champion.

They emerge from his mind with assorted facial expressions and peculiar antics, much like Mike's own. As he spoke of his art, Mike's eyes lit up and a mischievous grin appeared beneath his wildly tossled curls. "They said I could draw ever since I was a little kid," he said, as he shimmied in his familiar Steve Martin imitation. "I think M ike's a real kid at heart. He's all fun and games," said Amy Anderson '81. But it wasn't just fun and games when M ike received awards from Iowa High School Press Association, Creighton University and the University of Nebraska for his cartoons in the "Echoes" over a period of three years.

Seated tensely in the saddle, gripping the reins in one hand and a lasso in the o ther, Scott Brooks watches the calf race out of the shoot. Scott springs out of the box, his horse following every move the calf makes. After lassoing the calf, Scott jumps off his horse and flips the struggling animal over on its side, tying three of its legs together with one hand. All this takes place in less than 12 seconds. Although Scott started calf roping only three and a half years ago, he has always admired rodeo cowboys. " I always wanted to be like Walt Garrison, a professional cowboy," he said. Practicing three hours every day from April through November has paid off. Scott has placed in the top six in half of the 25 rodeos he has entered. Although only top rodeo cowboys make large sums of money, Scott still wants to make rodeoing a career. " I want to be a rodeo cowboy for the glory, not the money," he said.

Kim has participated in golf since 1976, when, as the only girl on her Longfellow team, she picked up pointers through an adult education course. Since then, Kim has won over 20 awards, broken two city tournament records and become the first Council Bluffs girl to win Metro. " I get nervous before matches, and I don't sleep the night before," she said. Because she puts too much pressure on herself, she said art has provided a release. " My art gets me away from everything," Kim said. Her 1979 projects were done in clay. " I've done really weird things dealing with hell, fan - tasy, and the struggle for self-identity," she said. Kim would like to receive a college scholarship in golf and make it as a pro or an artist. "I'm not going to say I'm the greatest, I've got a long way to go," she said. 162 seniors In art class, Kim Mann creates a piece of pottery.

At Glenwood State Hospital, Darby took care of retarted patients from 9 to 16 years old. As Darby worked, he visited with patients. "Hi, How are you doing, John?" "Have you been good, Karen?" "What are you up to, Joe?" But because the patients' mental ages were less than one year, they could only smile. Most of the patients needed total care, so Darby did everything from dressing and undressing them to bathing and feeding them . "When I first started I was afraid of them, I didn't know how to feel," Darby said. "But once you get to know them, its easy to talk to them as you do everyone else." Darby chose the job as child development worker through the T & I program. When he took the job, he didn't realize what it would mean to him. "I feel so thankful for my own Seeking information about his job, Darby Durham asks inhealth and being able to feel needed," he said. structor Frank Di Blasi where to look in his handbook.

Many other crazy stunts both on and off stage, showed Jeff's humorous personality. According to Jeff, being the funny man has some disadvantages. "At times, I wish I wasn't a funny person, like when I'm not in the mood, but people still expect me to be funny," he said. "On the other hand, the atmosphere I'm in is usually happy, and I feel good when I can perk someone up," Jeff said. Jeff's mother told of how he lifted sp irits at home. "If it wasn't for Jeff, we'd all be down in the dumps most of the time," she said. His classmates agreed. "In any situation, you can always count on Baker to have something humorous to say," said Patty Thorn '80. "I've had people tell me I should be a co m edian, but I really don't think I'm that funny," Jeff said. " A lot of people have the same sense of humor as me, but I'm just squirrelly enough to show it." Hang loose! For one of hi s crazy stunts, Jeff Baker hangs from the balcony in the student lounge.

He carefully reaches in the box and picks up a frame of 1100 bees. Steve Benton '79, who has been working with bees for five years, enjoys his hobby even after being stung 50 times at once. "A friend asked me to watch his bees," Steve said. "I was taking a frame of bees out, and it got caught in the box. It was hard to go back." But even after being stung and after learning of his father's allergy to bees, Steve returned to his hobby. " I have 80 to 90,000 bees in the spring and summer," he said. · His work involves seeing that there is a queen bee, and no disease. " The queen lays 2000 eggs a day," Steve said. "She can live for six years, but I usually get a new one every other year." While the bees work making honey, Steve makes money selling it. The average year brings him $350.

He was born with cerebral palsy. "I just think of it as a small inconvenience," Don said. "There's no other way to think of it." Don had his only bad feelings about his handicap during his early teens when he and his family moved to Frankfurt, Germany, for three years. "It was a completely different surrounding," he said. " I felt like we just landed out of nowhere. I didn't know anyone." In that strange new land, Don said he would sometimes get the feeling he was being left out of things, but he usually got over those feelings quickly. "I'd just go find something to do by myself," he said. During his high school years at AL, students and teachers alike noticed Don's ability to accept his handicap, make the best of everything, and keep on smiling. "Don is always cheerful. It is rare that I hear him make a negative remark about anyone," said Dorothy Button, librarian. "He accepts people as they are, and he has a sense of humor about life and about himself. He has been an inspiring person to know." Mike Spoto '80, also noticed Don's cheerfulness. "There's never a day when he doesn't smile or a class where he's not laughing," he said. Cheerful smiles warm the conversation as Don Simmons talks with night janitor Carl Frost in th e student lounge. --- ---------------==---~-- Chuck Smith Gayle Smith Mark Smith Geoff Smith Tammie South Robert Stephens Jim Stone Tim Storey Kellie Storm Kim Swanger Liz Hagen Cherry Lieber seniors 171 Lori Swanger Theresa Swanger Nancy Sweet Jeanine Talty Gay Taylor Marci Telpner Penne Templeman Linda Thomas Lisa Thomas Phil Thomas Sandy Thomas Su zanne Thomas Jan Thompson Larry Tibbles Ron Tierney Steve Torneton Sandy Town Larry Traylor Criss Tritsch Scott Trively N ikki Trongaard Howard Trusty D eni se Trzec iak Greta Umstot D avid Urich Lo ri VanPelt Sandra Vergamini David Voss Ju dy Waters Shell y Weber 172 seniors Kathy Webster .

Made up of eight-year-olds and younger, Peggy's team, the Super Soccer Kids, participated in the parks and recreation soccer program. "When we have games, I really get into them," she said. "I scream and cheer for the kids. They all think I'm crazy." When she began coaching a year ago, she attended training sessions and read books. During the season, she spent two nights a week practicing for games. "They play pretty well for beginners," Peggy said. "We've won one game, and that was against an undefeated team ." Peggy would like to get into recreation as a career. "I like being around little kids, watching and cheering for them . It makes me feel good," she said. A pep talk to the Super Soccer Kids is Peggy Petersen's way of planning strategy for a Saturday game at ISD's field. seniors 173 THOSE IN CHARGE Forty-six years of school ''I love students, and I love art!" said Berniece Ross, art instructor, just before she retires January 11, after 46 years of teaching, 30 of them at AL. Before teaching, Ross went to San Miguel Allende Art School in Mexico. Later, on her second trip around the world, she studied art in England under 25 teachers from other countries. During her long career, she shared many memorable experiences with students. She remembered the time a student threw away a painting he didn't like. After she retrieved it, they did repairs on it. She later learned it had won a gold medal in a New York art fair. After they graduated, students kept her informed. One wrote her telling of his job as a cartoonist for "Playboy." Other students wrote her that they had become art teachers.

Ross' most recent students had various ideas about what made her a good teacher, "She taught me not to give up, to keep working. She always showed me I could make anything into something good, if I were patient enough," said Pat McConeghey '79. "She let us be free and paint what we wanted," said Dave Telpner '80, who credited her with teaching him everything he knew about colors. After Ross retired, she hoped to teach young children in her home. She explained why it was so hard for her to give up teaching. "Art goes way back in our family," she said. "I think it was my destiny to become an art teacher." In her silent room, Berniece Ross uses her free hour to engage in painting, her favorite pastime.

Behind the door sat Dr. Ellen Simmons, assistant vice-principal, who came to AL fro m James Monroe High School in the Bronx. The wait to see Simmons w as sometimes long because her solution to discipline problems involved more than giving students quick lectures and having them sign referrals. Soon after school started, Simmo ns realized many students didn't know the rules because they had not read the student handbook. Her solution was simple. When a student was referred for an infraction, Simmons handed him the handbook, helped him find the appropriate section and then let him read for himself the consequences of his action. "One of the things I've tried to impress upon students is to be at peace w ith one another," Simmons said. "Each student should be able to walk down the halls without name calling or any other unpleasant thing happening." To help avoid unpleasantness, Simmons tried to get students to use " tongue power, not fist power." Students having disputes were called to her office to talk them out. Simmons believed she was successful . " I've had students admit they cut classes in the past, but this year they wouldn't think of cutting," she said. Some students agreed with Simmons.

(ABOVE) Strolling through the halls, a tall , dark-complected man would smile cheerfully, expressing friendliness and encouragement to the students and teachers he met. Dr. Raj Chopra, Council Bluffs' new superintendent, spent approximately 70 per cent of his time visiting schools. By visiting with students, he hoped to reach his goal of having 90 per cent of all students know him by the end of the school year. Students who got to know Chopra were im - pressed. "When I first met him, I thought he was just a projected image, but the more I was around him, I realized his attitudes and friendliness were genuine," said Lynn Damme '79. Teachers' reactions to Chopra were similar. " Personally, I'm very impressed by him," said instructor Mary Gepner. " I like the fact that he gets out and speaks w ith students and teachers, instead of shutting himself up in his office." When Chopra talked w ith students, he often spoke of their futures. " The future of Ameri ca depends on our youth," he sa id. Believing it was important to bring a po itive outlook to Council Bluffs, he often met w ith as many as 300 citizens, telling them what was good about the city and its schools. By maintaining an open door policy w ith his team of teachers and adm inistrators, he hoped educators could better fulfill their role of "ser - ing and inspiring youth." " I believe in young people," Chopra said.
