MONTICELLO 1938 ................................................ 0 Thomas Jefferson on Parade The following tale is fictitious in itself, bur it is true m the respect that it may have happened at any time. It was one of those swe ll Mondays that so often comes after a drizzly week-end. The sk y was an azure blue, the trees and grass had a freshness to their greenness that had come with the spring rains the day before, flowers held all the colors of the spectrum collected from the rainbow which had followed the preceding d ay's showers. All the windows in the school were open and the students divided their time between the lesson and the invitations that the spring weather was sending out. The office was busy with the usual first-period work that accompanies Monday mornings, making our admits, typing letters, answering telephone calls, and answering numerous questions to students. l\!Ir. Mye rs was in his private office in conference when suddenly he popped our the doo r, looked around to see who was in the outer office, seemed to be satisfied and said, Journalism Room "Bob, will you step into my office a minute? There's something I want to do that I think you'll enjoy!" "Why surely, Mr. Myers. But I should get back to class-" "That will be taken care of. In fact, you may nor attend your regular classes f or two days. Don't look so astounded, I'll explain m a moment. " "Bob, I want you to meet l\!Ir. Strumm and Mr. Avers." "Glad to know you, Bob," exclaimed Mr. Strumm, a big man, who looked as if h e might have been an athlete in his school days, as he shook hands. O ..... .... ..... .. .......... .......... .. ... ....... .... ___ ______ [PAGE 33] ··----······-··············-·------ -- ---·················--·-··D 0.----------------------------------------------- M 0 N T I CE LL 0 1 9 3 8 __ _ ---------- ----------------------------------0 " How do you do, young man," said Mr. Avers as he was introduced. Mr. Avers was a tall, lanky fellow, with a twinkle in his eye and a smile on his face. H e looked as if he were always ready for a good rime. Bob acknowledged both the introductions bur his face still held a look of mute aston:shment char made all three of the men laugh. "Bob," said Mr. Myers, "we'll rake the suspense from you r mind at once. l\tlr. Strumm and Mr. Avers are on an educa tiona l survey and are going around the country to different high sch'.)ols, observing how they operate, and then they are to put their observations down in writing for the average layman to read. Today and tomorrow they're going to be here at Thomas J efferson Print Shop-First Period and I want you to be their guide and show them all of the school, the classes, club meetings, and make their short stay as entertaining and educa tional as possible. P lan your own program, Bob, and gentlemen, I know that you will have an enjoyable time with Bob as your guide." "Well,'' said Bob, "To put it mildly, I've been caught short-winded with the whirlwind of events that have just occurred. I hardly know where to start, but as I see a Signal there on the counter it gives me the idea that we may as well start with the Journa lism department. It's located in the other building and as we walk over there, I'll tell vou a little about Thomas Jefferson High School. It was built in 1922 and is one of the newest school buildings in Council Bluffs. It was intended for a capacity of about P.ight hundred and, although it is only 16 years old, it has a population of about eleven hu ndred students, making it far too crowded. The building is fire proof and it has one of D ----------------·-------- ----------------------- ---·--- ---- - [PACE 34 I --- -·------------·-- ------- ------ 0 0. ............................................... M 0 N T I CE LL 0 l 9 3 8 ............................................... 0 the best football fields and tracks that you would find at any high school the same size. But here we are at the journalism room. "This first period class is responsible for the Sigllal, the house organ at T. ]., which is published every Friday, if finances permit. The managing editors are H elen Boylan and V era Flenker, juniors. The boy sitting at that table is Bill Kissel, front page editor, and the girls you see are either typing copy or working on contracts. Miss H azel Miller is the advisor of the Signal and teaches all the journalism m school. J ournalism I stuManltaf Training dents act as reporters, and the advanced journalism class, the class which we are now in, handles all the editing of the copy and the making up of the pages. The room is well equipped for putting out the paper, as it has four typewriters, plenty of room to work in7 ,and a gocdly number of reference books. The nicest feature of the location of the journalism room is that it is right next to the print shop. Right through rhis door." "Bob, do you mean to tell me that your school paper is put out by your own print shop?" questioned Mr. Avers. " Y es indeed, sir," answered Bob. "And not only that, they print the report cards, blanks, forms and the like needed in the superintendent's office, do all the printing that the school office needs such as the permanent record cards, all sorts of tickets, programs for plays, bulletins, well almost everything you can think of that an educational institution such as ours needs. The output from here is greater than of a lot of commercial print shops." o ................................................ .............. [PAGE 35 1 ............................................................... 0 0 -- ------------------ ---------------------------- M 0 N T ICE LL 0 I 9 3 8 -- ---- ----------- ------ ---- ------ ------------- -0 "They certainly are well equipped," remarked Mr. Strumm. "Right, sir. There are two small presses for small jobs, the big cylinder press for the Signal and other large jobs, in fact it's better equipped than most of the commercial shops. This year the print shop has a lot more space as it was moved from what is now part of rhe manual training department. This used to be the ROTC hall. "Mr. Carl Gernerzky is the instructor and this class is of his advanced students. They're the ones that run the Signal off the press. Mr. Gernetzky is quite a camera hound and Concert Band takes all the school pictures. He has taken all of rhe pictures for rhe annual, r xcept of course the senior pictures, which is quite an item when you think about it. Some of his work is remarkable and he's making a name for himself in rhe amateur field . Through this door and we'll go on to the manual training shop. " Our manual training shop is ve ry well equipped also. There's Mr. C. H . Carter, instructor, sharpening the teeth of one of the circula r saws from rhe table saw. Mr. Carter, hesides teaching all the manual training classes and lathe, handles the learhercrafr department as well." " Leathercrafr, eh?" asked Mr. Srrumm. 'Tl! bet that's a fascinating subject! I wish I could have taken it when I was in high school." " Ir is an interesting subj ect and one that is quite in demand among rhe students. Roys and girls alike take it and th ey turn out some surprisingly fin e specimens. Pocketl:iooks, hillfolds, card cases, bookends, bookmarks, book covers, well in fact rhe students turn out 0 --- ------ -- ---·---·--··---------·------- --------···--------· [PACE 36 1 ---D 0 -- --------------- -·-·-- · ···---- . _ -·----···- M 0 N T I CE LL 0 1 9 3 8 ················-···----·--··········-·······-0 almost any leather object that you can imagine. Some of the work is quite valuable because of the exquisite designs that are tooled into the leather and the fact that the work is by hand makes it more valuable." "Bob," Mr. Avers queried, "I noticed some kind of rock m the window as we came m. Can you tell us what it is?" "I'm glad you reminded me of that, !'Vlr. Avers. That at the present is one of the most interesting ventures of the manual training shop. That rock is what they call alabaster. Geenral Science Class I believe it comes from somewhere in W;·oming. If you will notice, it has very beautiful designs in it, which are really brought out to perfection on the finished job." "But how in the world do they work it?" questioned Mr. Avers. "I see no facilities for working on rock around here." "The way that alabaster can be worked is the most remarkable quality about it. Believe it or not, gentlemen, this material can be cut with a hand saw and turned on the wood lathes. The boys have really turned out some fine work from this alabaster. Bookends, lamps, cases for clocks that you set on a table; all of it beautiful work, done at a nominal cost, and if put on the market, would sell at quite high prices." "Tell me, Bob," remarked Mr. Strumm as Bob was taking them over to the band hall, "Why does your manual training department delve into so many different fields? I mean, take up this extra work other than with just wood." 0--············------ ·············---··--- ···--· [PAGE 37 J ···-·-····-··· . .. -··-·····-·········-··-·············-·····-.0 0 ----------------------------·--·····---·······-· M 0 NT ICE LL 0 I 9 3 8 ·······················-······················-0 "The only logical answer that I could ever figure out is that Mr. Carter is progressive, always on the lookout for new ideas to make shop work more interesting to the boys. A year or so ago the manual training shop experienced some with inlaid wood. The boys made pictures, all of wood: put designs on table tops, particularly on card tables thar they Physics and Chemistry Laboratory made, and turned out a lot of work that won them a lot of recognition around here. People realize that a project turned out in the Thomas Jefferson shop is just as good as any you could buy at the furniture store." By this time the second period had started and the semor band was in its place in the band hall. "This band and ROTC hall is the newest addition to the buildings at T. ] · Ir was built last summer and occupied last fall. The building is sound proofed and the acoustics are very fine, making it an excellent place for the instrumental department. Mr. Paul C. Dawson is the director of the band and orchestra, and has established a band we are certainly proud of. Our concert band won a superior rating at the district contest, which makes it eligible to go to the national contest at Omaha. You see those rooms at the west side there? They're for keeping the instruments sa fely locked up. Before this building was made one was liable to find instruments almost anywhere in the building . Many's the time I've opened my locker door, only to have my locker partner's instrument case come tumbling into my arms. There are different rooms for the different families of instruments.

MONTICELLO 193 8 ....... ........................................ 0 "Let's go over to the other building as it's almost the third period and we can watch the girls' glee club in action." "Some of the boys in the band have on different uniforms than the others. Why ts that, Bob?" asked Mr. Avers as they walked into the main building. "They were part of our marching band and were in those uniforms. The marching band is a unit of the ROTC and helps in the inspections and in parades. It really has a fine Fourth Period-Monda)' reputation around here, and it also has a superior rating and will attend the nationa l contest. I'm sorry it's not in action today as it is a splendid sight to watch. "Through these doors and we'll go into the auditorium and wait for the girls' glee club to start." "How many does your auditorium seat?" inured Mr. Avers. "Well, not nearly enough, I can assure you," replied Bob. "I believe it seats about seven hundred fifty. There isn't even standing room when we have a full assembly. But I see that the girls are about ready to sing. At present they're practicing for the national contest as they received superior in the district. Mrs. Alice Denton Jones is the director of the glee club and she's the first vocal instructor at T. J. that has ever developed a group to the point to where they could win a superior." "Do you have a boys' glee club?" questioned l'vlr. Strumm. "I'm interested, as I was in the glee club at college." " You bet we have a boys' glee and, although they haven't any superior ratings, tht>v're pretty good. They meet Tuesdays and Thursdays at this period, so that's why we won't get to see them." 0 .... ........ ........... ......................... .......... ... [PAGE 39 1 ............................................................... 0 0 .. .............................................. MONTICELLO 1 9 38 ...... ................................. ......... 0 "Those are certainly good-looking robes that the girls are wearing," remarked Mr. Srrumm. "Those robes belong to the glee club and I believe they earned them by putting on some programs. Ar least they helped pay for them by doing something like that. They're not worn every day. I imagine they're wearing them today to get used to them. Makes them less nervous when they go before the judges. "We may as \vell leave here and visit some of the class rooms. We won't be able to see near all of them, but we can do our best and those we don't see, we can talk about. Here's Room 208; the biology and genera l science room. This period it's used for G eneral SciFifth Period-Mon day ence I and Mr. Edward Jewett is the instructor. This class is a freshman class and preFares the student for the physics and chemistry classes which he meets in his junior and senior years. The science I classes do minor experiments in this room, but this room is really most interesting to look into when the biology class is here. Then animals are dissected, different parts of the anatomy studied. Mr. Fields is instructor for biology. "We can rake a short cut through here and go into Room 207, which is the physics and chemistry laboratory. Mr. 0 . A . Bump is the instructor in physics and chemistry. This third period class is a Physics I class and from the looks of things, they're studying the problem of parallel forces. Mr. Bump is demonstrating to the class just the wav the parallel forces act. Our laboratory is very well equipped for all the various experiments which must be carried on in the advanced science department. Each table in here, as you see, is equipped with a sink, hot and cold water, four gas jets, and provisions for setting up experiments. Mr. Bump often takes his classes on trips to study or observe things that closely relate to subjects they have studied in class. One trip that proved very interesting to the students was to one of the music stores in Omaha to see and hear a Hammond electric organ. By hearing this instrument they could hear all the notes which they had studied about in a chapter on sound." "Do your science students study anything about streamlining? That seems to be one of the subjects we hear so much of lately," said Mr. Avers. 0 ............................................................... [ PAGE 40 1 ... . . . .o L D------··-··-- _ -- ·· -···--- __ _____ M 0 N T I C E LL 0 1 9 3 s -··-······--·----·····················-D "Yes, sir. The physics dasses study about streamlining and a very interesting study it is. Through rhe use of slides in a projector, Mr. Bump demonstrates the principle. By using some sort of apparatus he puts different shaped objects in a stream of water, projects it on a screen, and presto, rhe principle of streamlining is revealed before your eyes. We may Self Reliant Club as well leave this room and go on down the hall and avoid the rush of students as it's almost noon. I'll meet rhe rwo of you at the office right after the noon hour and we'll continue on our trip around the school." MONDAY AFTERNOON "Hello, Bob," said rvlr. Srrumm as rhe three met for their afternoon inspection of the school. "Are we all ready for the afternoon?" "I'm ready when you say the word, sir. I hope you enjoyed your lunch." "We certainly did, Bob," answered l'vlr. Avers. "\"\(! e ate in your cafeteria. They certainly have good food in there." "I'm glad that you liked it. We'll visit the cooking department tomorrow morning. \XT e're lucky this afternoon, for most of the clubs hold their meetings today and we will be able to visit almost all of them. But for next two periods we can visit two of the ROTC companies. The fourth period has already started so let's go out to rhe drill hall and observe the actions of the fourth period company. " Captain Jack Ginn, a junior, is in command of this company. It is made up, almost completely, of rookies, cadets rhar are raking drill for the first semester. Despite the fact D --- [PAGE 41 I ··--·-··-··-·--·---···········-·-·-········-···-···-----------0 0------------------------------------------------ M 0 NT ICE LL 0 1 9 3 8 ---·-···-·-------·----··--- ----- ···--·····--··-· D that this company is composed of first year men, it drills exceedingly well and will take part in the inspection, May 10. Sergeant H. B. Truex is the ROTC instructor and M a jor Mead is the P. M. S. and T. for the Omaha and Council Bluffs high schools. "How many ROTC companies are there, Bob?" questioned Mr. Strumm. Allied Y 011th " Five, sir. Two today, both of them rookie companies, and three tomorrow. There are sixteen officers commanding the Thomas Jefferson Regiment, which has two hundred thirty cadets as the personnel." " I see all these rifles around the east end of the hall here," said Mr. Avers. ' 'About how many are there here?" "There are only two hundred rifles for the regiment of two hundred thirty cadets. Quite a condition to combat when it comes time for inspection. There goes the bell. In ju9t a couple of minutes there'll be another first-year company out here. "Say, Bob, this is certainly a large company," exclaimed rvir. Strumm. "Why are so many of the cadets out of uniform?" asked Mr. Avers. "This is the largest company we have in the corps and it is the other rookie company. There is such a lack of upper classmen in this company that many of the corporals are just taking their second semester of drill. Yet, despite their lack of experience, they have done a nice job with this company: it drills almost as well as the companies composed of upper classmen, Lieutenant Colonel Phil Gurney commands this company of eight squads. In answer to your question, Mr. Avers, about half of these boys are out of uniform be0 -------------------------------------------------···-·----·-···· [PACE 4 2 J ·····----·-·----------·---··--- ···----·-···------D D -- ·· _____ . ·-·-· ·-·--- M 0 N TI CELL 0 I 9 3 S ----------------------------- -------------------0 cause there aren't enough ro go around. It is a mid-year company and by the time they started drill there wasn't a uniform left in the store room. For that reason about half the company is in civilian clothes." "I say, Bob," said Mr. Strumm, "why are the boys putting these benches in little groups?" "You'll see in just a moment, l\1r. Strumm. The cadets are arranged like that, in squads, and then the officers teach the individual squads different subjects, depending on which N u 0111ega Literar y Society company they are in. I think-yes, that's it. This company ts learning the nomenclature, care and cleaning of the rifle." "Does each company have a differenr subject?" questioned Mr. Avers. "Yes, sir, they do. The senior company has mapping, the others have musketry, scouting and patrolling, first aid, extended order, and sanitation and hygiene. Some companies have on e suhject to take care of, others have two or three. " \Xlell this period's over, but I've a treat for you this next period. Our honor club meets during the sixth period today, and I think they'll let us sit in on part of the meeting. If I'm not mista ken its meeting will take all period today, so let's hurry over to the other huilding and get in on the beginning.' "Didn't you say something about this club being an honor club?" asked Mr. Avers as they hurried down to the cafeteria where the meeting was to be held. " Yes, I did," replied Bob. "This organiza tion is called the Self-Reliant Club and its sponsor is Mr. Daron Warren. T o get in the club, one has to have the reputation among the 0 -·----- -- - r r:\ GE -n 1 ----·-------- ___ -------------------------------- ·--- -------D D--·······--·-········--------------------------- M 0 TICE LL 0 l 9 3 8 ·······················-···-··················D students and faculty that he or she is to be trusted, and can be counted on to do the right thing in an emergency. One's conduct must be above the average and once someone who is in the club does something that is unbecoming to their conduct, he or she is dropped from the club. To get in the club is not an easy job. First one must fill out an application Masque and Ba!lble on which he gives a full account of the time he has spent in various occupations during one week. Then he must be voted on by his home room and passed by it. After passing the home room the application goes to the faculty and if it passes them it goes to th e Fon11n. The Forum is the self-governing body at T. J. and is composed entirely of students. They vote on the applicant and if they wish they may have him tell them why he thinks he should be allowed to join the Self-Reliant Club. If he passes the Forum, the Self-Reli ant Club itself votes on him. "So you see, to belong to this group, one must be rated pretty high among the students at T . J. Besides having the honor of belonging to this group, one is allowed many !Jrivileges. For instance, after being absent, a Self-Reliant member need not take an admit with him to his classes from the office. Self-Reliant students rarely abuse this privilege, howeve r. Bob Evans, senior, is the president of the club; vice-president is Myrtle Cooney, junior; secretary is Roylyn Flaxbeard, senior; and the treasurer is Rose Clark, senior. The club is popula r and students strive to join it. It's almost time for the regular club meetings to start, but before we make the rounds, let's atte nd a short mee ting of a group that belongs to the Allied Youth ." "The Allied Youth," mused Mr. Strumm. "It seems to me that I've heard that name before." D --······-·················· ----·-------·-------· ···· .........

It's a national organization. Right in here. This club is the newest one in the school and it was started by Mr. Myers this spring. Its purpose is this. 'It stands for liberation, through education, of alcoholic beverages.' The officers are Yale Gotsdiner, sophomore, president; Betty Graul, sophomore, vice-president; Jean Waugh, sophomore, sec retary; and Kenneth Sales, sophomore, treasurer. As the club is new, it hasn't had Sigma T a11 Literary Society any regular programs as ye t, but we feel sure that the time is not far off when it will be one of the outstanding clubs of the school. There are about fifty in the club, which is a larger membership than some of the older clubs in the school. The other clubs must be started by now, so let's spend a short time with those we want to visit. " H ere's where the Nu Omegas meet. The Nu Omega is a girls' literary society. It is on e of the most active clubs in the school and has probably contributed more to the school than any other one club. That seems only natural, though, when you consider their purpose which is 'To develop literary ability and character and to render service to the community.' Miss rviabel Gunderson and Mrs. Clara Strickland, sponsors of the society, keep the club living up to its purpose and make the club an asset to the school. It's quite popular among the girls and it has an enrollment of fifty-two. President of the society is Lorraine Rawling, senior; vice-president, Jean Schluter, junior; secretary, rviyrrle Cooney, junior; and treasurer, H elen Ray Kull, junior. Under such able managership the club has accomplished much this semester. They have put on several programs within their own group, and then they have put on a lot of all-school dances which have been very pooular wirh the students. N ot only ha ve they been popular, but they have swe lled the Nu [ Pi\ GE -Vi I -- -·-- -------·----------·------------·-------··--···---- ---D C.--··········-··· .............. ...............

The Nu Omegas put on a Mother's D ay program which, so I hear, is very nice to attend. «Of course, this literary society, like others, is very secret, and the ideals, bylaws, a nd such of the club are kept in strictest confidence among the members. Before the members arc sworn in this club, they are put through an mmation, part of which a t least IS see n hy the Delphian entire student body. When pledges are initiated, they are painted up as Indian s or something and then wear that paint a ll day at school. They are teased about it by everyone in the school, and I imagine they are mighty g lad to get it off at nig ht." "Bob," whispered Mr. Strumm, " I believe you're right about this club having secre t business. The way that large woman is glaring at us, I think it would be a good idea to leave and go visit some other club." " I think that's a good suggestion," said Bob. "Let's slip out. "That large lady you spoke of," remarked Bob, as they headed towa rds the 111.eeting place of the Masque and Bauble, "is Mrs. Strickland. She's one of the best-liked teachers a t T . ]., because of her sou thern geniality. Her growl is far worse than he r bite; in fact she rarely growls but what she doesn't start smiling before she is through. "Let's go in and watch the Masque and Bauble in action. This club IS the drama tics organization and is under the sponso rship of Miss D oris A. Hatch. Roger Dickeson , senior, is the president; Roylyn Flaxbeard, senior, vice-president; Pauline Prasse, se111o r, secre tary; 0 ............................................................. .

This club is another one of the more active ones. It puts on several one-act plays dttring each school year, and has different programs for the club itself. For instance , not long ago rhe members talked through the school loud speaking system G. A .. A. "Do you have a loud speaking system here at T . ].?" asked M r. Avers. "Not the kind tha t you're thinking of, i\ilr. Avers. It isn't one of these systems with which the principal can ta lk to rhe student body from his office. Ir's just a microphone hooked up to the loud speaker of the moving picture machine. Yer it works splendidly and portrays voices with rema rkable clarity. It gives the student the experience of talking over a microphone, while his classmates check and criticize him. "The club, however, spends its time in studying rhe different problems that confront the hi gh school student when a production is put on at the school. Lighting rhe stage, the use of spotlights, how scenery should be used for best effect, the art of applying make-up, and points in acting on rhe stage . M ore than the things taught about problems backstage, the club teaches its members to be able to watch plays with understanding and to be pa rt of a good audience. Time is going fast so we'd better hurry if we want to visit some more of the clubs. "This next club we're about to visit is another girls' litera ry society. Ir's ca lled the Sigma T au and its purpose is 'T o proma te loyalty, service, hea lthful recreation, and to develop pe rsona lity.' The sponso rs are M iss M. B.

D cers are Jean Brownell, senior, president; Jean Nugent, senior, vice-president; Lorraine Parrish, sophomore, secretary; and Betty Graul, sophomore, treasurer." "Bob, why does T. J. have all these different clubs?" asked Mr. Strumm. "For the students' enjoyment," replied Bob. " I suppose that's as good a reason as any. The students that are in clubs get a lot out of them. Take the Sigma Tau here: part of Biology Club its purpose is to promote healthful recreation and to develop personality. Through the various programs that the club plans throughou t the year, these two virtues are stressed. The student in the club naturally acquires these and when she leaves the school, she car· ries them with her. Consequently she will always know how to partake in healthful recreation: she will have developed a personality in the club which would have been missed entirely if it had been allowed to develop in the classroom alone. As these clubs are comparatively small groups, more time can be spent on the individual. When a girl leaves one of these societies, she has a very good background which she can use in her later life. "The next club we visit," said Bob as the three left the Sigma Tau, "is the Delphian Lit· erary Society, another girls' organization. The motto of the society is 'Let us by our deeds be known,' and believe me, they are known by their deeds, at least around school. Mrs. Alice Jones and Miss Mabel Killinger are the sponsors of the Delphians. President of the club is Rose Clark, senior; the vice-president is Dorothy Hough, senior; secretary is Jane Lewis, junior; the treasurer is Pat Prentice, junior. The purpose of the club is 'To study literary work and gain culture by mixing work wi.th play, etc.' 0 ..... ............................................ .

In the spring they give a tea fo r th e mothers and in the ' 'inter they give a banquet fo r the seniors of the club and th eir moth ers. " "Why a re there so many girls' cl ubs in the school, and so few with boys in them," questioned M r. Ave rs as the group headed towa rds the gym where the G AA was in progress. Period T hree-SeJ11i11 g "There are one or two boys' clu bs in the school, bur their membership is rather low. I lay th e reason for the lack of boys in clu bs to the fac t that so many of them either work a fter school, or pa rtake in sports. A great pe rcentage of the boys in school go out for th e different sports, especia lly in the spring. As you know, when a boy is ou t for athletics, he must d evote his outside time to building himself up physically, and he can't very well do tha t if he spends his time at clu b meetings, even though the meetings are two weeks apart, as there may be an important game or track mee t which comes during the same week as the clu b meeting. "Let's go in the gym and wa tch pa rt of the G AA's mee ting. G AA stands for G irls' Athletic Associa tion, and to be a member of the group a girl must have ea rned so many points in her physica l educa tion classes, by participating in different events, playing on differen t tf:' ams, and being a good athlete in girls' sports. The purpose of the club is 'T o create interest in g irls' at hletics.' Miss H annah N yholm, physical training instructor, is the sponsor of the club. J ean Rayburn, senior, is president ; Erma D ray, senior, is vice-president; Bf:'ttie M a rtin, junior, is secretary; and D aisy Lalich, junior, is the treasure r. "The organiza tion sponso rs severa l prog rams during the year, outstanding of which are th e gym nig ht p rogram, and the M ay fe te. The gym night program is fo r the girls of the school and their mothers and friends. The May fete is the highlight of the season.

The show draws spectators from all over the city, making a very large crowd, and people look forward to it every year. The GAA holds a high respect in the eves of the school and girls deem it a great honor when they join the group. The GAA girls are Cooking Class leaders in their gym classes and often take charge of games when Miss N yholm must spend her time elsewhere. "Time is growing late, and we have one more club to visit. This is a club for boys, Mr. Avers; it's the Biology Club. Mr. Stephen Fields is sponsor of the Biology Club and under h is sponsorship the club has won wide acclaim in the town. They have had rheir picture in the Nonpareil several times to show the work that they are doing. Their particular pride is in stuffing animals and birds. They have done some wonderful work along this line, making the an imals they have stuffed look ve ry life like indeed. The officers of the cl ub are, president, David Burrows, iunior; vice-president, Jack McCormick, scphomore; secretary-treasurer, Paul f\/lcKiernan, junior. "Wel l, gentlemen," said Bob as he was taking the men back to the office, "our trip fo1· coday is ended, but we'll continue it tomorrow." "You've shown us a very enjoyable day, Bob. We'll be looking forward to the trip tomorrow," exclaimed f\/lr. Strumm. "'You bet we will, Bob. And-say-just a minute.

Avers told Bob. "That will be fin e," replied Bob. With that, he left the two men at the office wondering wh at he would do to entertain the men on the foll owing day. TUESDAY, THIRD PERIOD Tuesday was as fin e a day as one could hope fo r; it wasn't too hot nor too cold ; just rig ht fo r visiting school rooms as the air was fresh and invigorating. W hen Bob greeted Stu dy Hall-Room VJ B !Vlr. A vers and !Vl r. Strumm he had his itinerary for the day made out. "We've four classes to visit this period, so if we wa nt to spend the prope r amount of time in each of them we had better ge t started right now. "The first cl ass on our list th is morning is the sewing class. Miss M abel Gunderson is the instructor fo r th e sewing classes and under her supervision the classes have made many bea utiful ga rments. Every yea r the sewing classes put on a style show before the P .-T. A. a nd display the clothes they have made during the school year.

Now we'll go around the corner here and visit rhe cooking class. Nliss Belle Soukup is instructor for the cooking classes. She not only teaches her classes how to cook good food, but she teaches them how to set a table correctly, how to carve meats, and the carLibrary rect table manners in eating food. In the chef classes, which are made up of boys, she teaches the boys how to serve a dinner. The classes are always experimenting with new foods, and working up new ideas on the substantials we have every day. Her pupils have to make up balanced menus and when a student graduates from one of Miss Soukup's classes, he or she knows all there is to learn about cooking, they only lack a lot of experience." "Do the cooking classes prepare the food that the cafeteria serves?" questioned Mr. Strumm. " I don't believe they prepare all the food that is served m the cafeteria, but I know they help prepare a lot of it. "There are certainly a lot of appetizmg odors that come from the cooking class rooms," said Bob as he was taking the two visitors down to 102, "and they make a guy plenty hung ry. The cookies, cakes, and good stuff one smells would really hit the spot ::tbout the end of the third period. 0 -------- ---- ---- [PAC E 52 1 -- -----------·---·-·--------- ----- ·------0 [].. .. ...... ..... .. .... ... ... .................

Our library is we ll equipped with reference books for all the subjects in school as English , both literature and speaking; chemistry; Larin; mathematics; jou rnalism; history, European and American ; govenunent; woodwork; printing; dramatics; and all the others. There are a lot of books here that are for pure enjoyment in fiction, non-fiction, biography, etc. The library takes a lot of magazines, both educationa l and for amusement; some that are taken are Harpers, Readers Digest, Literary Digest, Scientific American; and the loca l papers, the Nonpareil, the \'\! orld-Herald, D es Moines Register, and the Sunday New Yark Times. So you see that our library is very we ll stocked for a high school library." "What are all these statues and plaques around the school for?" asked Mr. Avers. "I don't know their actual significance, but they add a lot to the attractiveness of the interior of the school. If you notice, they all represent the early days of American history: some of them portray life of soldiers in the Revolutionary War, others are of pioneer life, and there a re several small statues of the Indians. There are other ones around school, 0 [PAG E 5~] ............................................................... 0 D------ -- -- --·---··-··-··------------------------ M 0 N T I CE LL 0 I 9 3 8 ------- -- D too, but they seem to play no important part in the theme of the others.

Company drill is about the hardest drill there is to our inspection: two platoons participate in Sixth Period-Tuesday it and the commands are given by the company commander, the platoon commanders carrying our his orders." "How a re rhe officers chosen, Bob? " asked Mr. Strumm. "All officers, both non-commissioned and commissioned, must take tests before thev are promoted. T o be a corporal, a cadet must take the corporal's test; corporals, to be promoted , are compelled to take the sergeant's test; to get a commission, the sergeant must take the test for commission. Of couse the applicant must get a passing grade in the test, else he is not even considered. Besides the written examination the applicant must take a pracitcal test by drilling a squad or platoon, depending on the test he is taking . O f course an officer must keep himself neat, and must be able to give orders with authority. If he can't do this, he will surely be a failure. I want to take you to one more group before our tour is ove r and as school is almost over we'll just have time to get to the meeting before it starts. "This is another club; the Lettermen's.

J. spirit started off the '37 season with a hang. The first opponents were small and offered little opposition to an unusually large T. J. team. The T . J. regulars played only a short while and gave way to the second team. T. J ., 41 G riswold, 6 Griswold was literally stomped on by the T. J. Yellow jackers. The regulars scored 18 points in six minutes, leaving the field clear for the second team to complete the victory. T. ]., 25 I. S. D .. O I. S. 0. tried hard for victory over the opponents but had little success. The T. ]. Yellow jackers were far superior to the Bobcats. Power and strength were exhibited b>' rhe T. J. linr. T. J., 12 N orrh, 0 North was the first real test for T. ].'s football team. The game was played in mud and was hard fought. Ir ended in T. ].'s fourth victory. T . ]., 7 \'V'est Waterloo, 20 The T. ]. boys left for 'V:' est \'V' aterloo with high hopes and probably too much confidence. They received their first setback of rhe season after a hard fought game. T. ]., 6 Hamburg. 0 At the Hamburg field T. J. was in poor spirit, and as a result they didn't live up ro the expectations of the coach and followers. But they still succeeded in coming home wirh another victory. T. ]., 7 Benson, 18 The Benson game was rhe second and last defeat of the "37" gridiron season. T. J. showed the ability as a good football ream but were incapable of stopping Brown as he wormed his way through T. ].'s line for 3 touchdowns. T. ]., 15 Abraham Lincoln, 12 T. J. again \von back the honors taken away for the first rime in seven seasons. A. L. concentrated on a passing offense and T . J. used power. Both reams fought hard, but A. L. was outplayed. T. J ., 6 - Abraham Lincoln, 6 The last game of the season was probably the most thrilling. In this game it was "fight to the last minute." And the teams were as evenly matched as rhe score.

Si x ty - eig ht This season was a profitable one for the Yellowjackets as far as pa st history was conerned. The Jeffs got off on the wrong foot the first gcame, losing to Benson 38-37. Th ; following week, howeve r, they troun:ed Logan 59-21. They stayed in the groove and managed a poor win ove r Sioux City Trinity 31 -25. lt was a wi ld game all the way, with the Jeffs looking their poorest. After that wild game was out of th e ir system they came to life and defeated Malvern 63-25. They got off to a terrific start and kept a hot pace. The reserves played most of th e gam2. Clawson was high scorer. The ir next game wasn't an easy victory. They came from behind to down St. Franc is. Again Clawson was h igh scorer with 11 . They felt the loss of W. J. Rollison in the next ga me which th ey lost 40-35. It was a hard-fought ga me with neith e r team sure of the outcome till the la st few seconds. The Abe Lynx handed th e Jeffs their third loss and their second straight. In their rivalry both teams played their best games. A. L. managed to overpower the Jeffs and win handil y 47-39. T . J. then trave led across the river and took a trimming from Creighton Prep, absorbing their worst defeat of the season, by the score of 55-27 . Kinart, playi ng one of his best rebound games, just couldn't compete with Heyden and Benson, both 6 feet 5 . Dimunitive Pete La rsen san k four buckets with a miunte to go but the seconds lost 36-28. Th e Jeffs hit the win column again by stoppin g a fighting crew from Gl enwood 4 7 -33. Corb in was h igh point man wi th 12. Next, the Je ffs chalked up a victo ry by the small sco re of 32-29, ove r North Hi gh . They then avenged an early defeat by stopping Benson 38-35. It was a crowd thriller all the way. Del Corbin was good for 17 points. In their next game th e Jeffs nudged out Harlan 39-34. Kinart, shelved because of an injury, was sore ly missed . T . J., putting on one of the ir greatest shows, rece ived a loss from A. L. by th e sma ll score of 32-31 . The following week they put on a n even better battle against Boystown and came close to making a n upset victory. At th e e nd of the third quarter the Je ffs led by 1 O points, but Boystown showed why they were a great ball club by overcoming tha t lead a nd w inning 47 - 46. Afte r losing two close games the Jeffs couldn't assemble a ny kind of a n attack against Mo. Va lley and lost a poorly pl ayed game . They the n managed to defeat a vastly improved Central club. The Jeffs e nded the regu la r sea son with a 9 wi n- 7 loss record. They opened their district p lay by li cki ng a jynx and defeated A. L. 47-42. This vitory in d istrict was the first tim ~ si nce 1 944 that the Jeffs have beEn ab le to beat A. L. They traveled to Carroll for sub -sta te play, w here they took on Boone a nd lost, That ended thei r basketball for this season but next yea r w ith four of the first five ba:k th 2y ou ght to go places. Culek a nd Corbin a re next yea r's captains a nd both are great pl aye rs. BACK ROW: John G ibbons, Roger W ltke, Lyman L u ndeen, Don Strong, Jim Ken nedy.

Coach Orville Orr turned out his usual competent team, and his fine coaching was evident to the many wrestling fans as they watched his boys wi n eight out of the twelve school matches, ta ke second place in Inter-City, w in the District title, and place seventh at Sta te . The first vitim of the year was Tech, by a score of 32-14. Pep Conney, 8 5 pound n ewcomer, d rew the top match of the evening. South lost the first seven matches in a row, to lose to Tee Jay, 26- 14. With the third meet came Tee Jay's first defeat, at the hands of Central. The final score was 22-20. Walte r Furle r a nd Jim Aten were outstanding, a long with dependable Don Ryan. North High absorbed a de feat in the next meet, 26-12. This match suppli ed a lot of excitEment, with John Haiz lip defeating a Nebraska State Champion. The next opponent was Eagle Grove, Tee Jay winning by 19 -1 6. A. L. came next, and again the Tee Jay boys were up to pa r, ending on top o f a 26- 20 score . Fort Dodge handed Tee Jay the ir second defeat of the season, 20- 12. Ed Lane's wrestling ability was outstanding in th;s meet. In a second meeting with ·i ech, Tee Jay aga in won, 30-12. Bob Nusser, freshman newcomer, wrestled South's state champion wi th a style that made him a favo rite w ith the fans. The fi nal score was in Tee Jay's f<l'10 r , 24- 12. Central agai n defeated Tee Jay, 20-17. This meet was anexciting one, and, as a result, Tee Jay was driven from the race for the Inte r-City title. The last match of the season regularly scheduled was w ith North Hi gh. Tee Jay won, 28-14. The n the Tee Jay toys went to the District meet at Des Moi nes, and came home with first place. At State, Don Ryan agai n proved his ability as he became a State Champ:on for the second yea r in a row. The team ended up in seventh place. Although some of the boys graduated, the team, next yea r, should be one of the top ones Tee Jay has ever had, w ith some materia l returni ng to the mats. FIRST ROW: John Haslip, Henry Carmichael, Bob Christensen, Roger Redman, Jim Aten, Norman T aylor, Beauford Haslip. SECOND ROW: Dick D amon, Ed Lane, Leon ard Schreiber, Don Ryan, Bob Nusser, Leland Monson, Ed Smith, O r ville Orr. FIRST ROW : Dale Cook, Lewis Webster, D ick Millard.

B ob Hatc h er , Ri chard Steffan, Peter Canavan, Earl Jensen. Don Rya n's reco rd spea ks for itse lf as to the type of wrestler h e was. In 1947 he was undefea ted in cual meets, and topped it off by winn :ng the District championsh 'p plus the state champicmh :p that year. During th e pa st season, 1948, he was not only undefrated but he won l l falls out of l 3 matches. Many of the l::oys Don wrestled this year outweighed him from l O to 35 lbs. Coa:h Orr always put him a;ainst th e cleverest opponent of the team T . J. wrestled. Don, we ighing only 152 ll::s., cculd fulfill the l 55 pound class and the 165 lb. class as well as doing a splendid job in the heavyweight di vision. Coach Orr call ed him his utility man, because he was able to use him in three differe nt we:ghts. Don won th e State Championship again in 1948 , only he moved up on e weight to th e l 55 lb. c lass in doing it. He came back the next week and copped the 160 lb. class in th e Midwest A.A.U. wrestling tournament. Then the following week he entered th 2 district Olympic tournament at Nebraska Unive rsity and won second place which qualified him for the Olympics at Am2s, Iowa. Winn ing the Midwest A.A.U. at Cmaha qualified him for the National A.A.U at Hempstead, New York. The city council of Council Bluffs, with aid by the Nonpareil and its sports reporter, George Lindsey , raised over $500 for the Don Ryan appreciation fund a nd se nt not only Don but his coach Orville Orr to this tournament in New York. This trip was th 2 highlight of Don's high schoo l wrestling career. Although he didn't pl ace in the tournament, he had a pl easa nt one week stay in New York City, see ing all th e famous places, a big league ball game, and other sights. Th e peop le of Council Bluffs certainly showed th e ir appreciation of Don by th e ir fin e response. Don Rya n will long be remembered as one of the fin est a thl e tes T . J. ha s eve r had, also one of the finest academic stude nts of the school. We know Don will continue to rece ive grea t e r awa rds as he goes on to college and the future . Best of luck in your further acheivements, Don . R.O:J.C. Seventy-four ------, SERGEANT TODD CAPTAIN SPAULD ING OFFICERS Cadet Colonel Donovan L. Vol pp . . .... ...... . . ..

The change of attitude was so drastic decorations were put up one day and torn down the next. that even the students couldn't believe it. But Homecoming 1983 changed that tradition . "After we decided to accept the idea, we learned that it wasn't all that bad. We just wanted to make the best of it, " said Trip Allen '83. The attitudes of athletes were also positive.

People actually wore sheets and sandals to school! So many people participated that you looked out of place if you weren't in a costume!" said Ronda Bargenquast '84. Band director Jim Misner was also determined to make this year a rare one. After a locally publicized poor teacher evaluation last spring, he returned to school determined to fight for his job by making his band the best ever. "After he told us he was fighting for us, we wanted to prove to him that we were worth the fight," said Valarie Witham '83. On Oct. 9, at the State Marching Band Contest, Misner led his Lynx to a one-plus rating, which placed them first in the city and fourth in the state. Journalists also overwhelmed us when they distributed their first newspaper. After a week of workshops in Iowa City, staffers spent hours transforming their 8 by 11 inch paper into an 11 by 17 inch tabloid. " I was really surprised! It looked so professional that I took it home to my parents," said Paul Rounds '83. Vocal music students surprised us too! Twenty of them practiced two hours daily for six weeks to perfect their voices for All-State Chorus auditions. "I remember Todd Christians getting in my car on a Friday night to cruise with me. He brought a tape of the All-State music with him, put it in my tape deck, and sali\g all night long! That's how dedicated they all were!" said Larry Punteney '83. Their serious attitudes paid off when 14 were chosen for the All-State Festival, the most in AL history. It was just October, and we had already accomplished feats that three months earlier not one of us would have dreamed possible. Imagine that! FANS HAVE INTERESTING WAYS of showing spirit!

Today's Mr. Gaffney's birthday!" shouted someone at the Homecoming car bash. A group of students started singing, and soon 200 more joined in to wish happy birthday to the same principal they had rebelled against the year before. "I was stunned when everyone sang so enthusiastically to Mr. Gaffney. They even clapped after they were through singing!" said Bryan McGee '83. Similar feelings of astonishment surfaced when 217 students arrived at the Christmas Dance and saw 720 blue and silver balloons fill the air around an enormous tree. "After 15 of us spent eight hours decorating, it was worth it to see everyone so dazzled by the balloons," said Gayle Swartz '83, Foreign Student Club president. But that wasn't the only winter event! Because of surprisingly warm weather in January, students created their own fun outside. "It was so warm that I didn't even have to wear my jacket to go sledding!" said Shelley Kenkel '83.

"We knew we'd get a gag gift, but I never dreamed we'd get white boxer shorts with red hearts on them! We put them on .and wore them all night!" Morrison said. Even Roadshow took students by surprise! Contrary to tradition, the production was held at the beginning of the school year. "Everyone had to rush to get their acts together because no one was expecting it so soon, but we still had a great time!" said Tom Wyatt '84. But perhaps the most surprising event was the Mr. Lincoln Pageant! Organized in just three weeks to raise money for the Senior Class, the pageant had 15 boys prancing and posing in everything from diap.ers and junglewear to girls' bathing suits. Bryan Whitfield '83, who was crowned as Mr. Lincoln, also received a shock. "When they said my name, I thought I was the fourth runner-up!" he said.

" It started out hopeful because our record was so good, but we knew we would have a tough time beating them since they were rated second in Nebraska," said Joe Matthews '83. The AL defense held its own the first half, giving up only seven points. "The defense turned up a credible performance," stated the Council Bluffs Nonpareil. " The players· performed lik e Metro Conference title contenders for two and a half quarters. " But as the game progressed, the Lynx fell 3 1-0. The main event of the night was the band performance and coronation. After Susie Oakes '83, was chosen queen, friends rushed to congratulate her and her escort, Harry Poulous '83. " I really didn 't know what to do after my name was called! I was so ne rv ous; I just stood there!" Oakes said. Although spirits were dampened momentarily by the loss to Northwest, students still looked forward to the fi~al Homecoming event, the dance . " Everyone loved the music! We even started doing the bunny hop!" said Vicki Witham '83. A hired disc jockey played a mix of slow and fast songs. " People were out to have a great time because so many people went stag. No one cared who they danced with ; they just danced!" said Julia Wright '83. Student council president Jeff Ballenger '83, summed up the entire week. " It was incredible to see so many people get involved and have fun!" he said. " DON'T FALL BEHIND!" yells Pat Steenbock to offensive players after an incomplete pass is thrown.

A few short feet away, guys whispered about who the cutest girl in school was and who they were going out with on Saturday. Love took its toll on everybody. Some were bound to a true love, while others enjoyed casual dating. Of 100 students polled, 35 held on to the ir true love by going steady. " I'm going steady because I love being attached to someone I really care about," "YUM! I CAN'T WAIT!" Jeff Buch· holz seems to say as he helps Jolene Schwarzkoph make spaghetti. said Wendy Cox '84. Symbols of such love ranged from promise rings to heavy class rings laden with yarn. One symbol was a pin that proclaimed 'I love Howie' or whoever the person happened to be. " I wear the 'I love pin' because I'm in love, and I want the whole world to know it and that they better keep hands off," said Robyn Castillo '84.

" Since you're always changing, how do you know the person you are choosing now will be what's right in the future?"

I just put them on hold for a while," said Marcy Fulfer '83. Even though most students claimed they were playing the field, 41 percent said they were looking for Mr. (or Miss) Right.

I wouldn't ever wear anything that wild, " said Kerri Weaver '83. Although the majority of those polled said they disliked mini skirts, a few girls wore them to school without a second thought. " I've never been a follower, so when I dress, I try to get a look that reflects my sfyle," said Wendy Phillips '83, who owned five minis.

O ne period wasn't an eternity, but it seemed like it when you were sitting in seventh hour listening to the teacher explain " how to reach the volume of an equilibrium solution." Spacing off, you looked at the clock. Only five more minutes and school would be out! A poll of 200 students showed that when the 3:05 bell rang, approximately 51 of them went home for an evening of relaxation, 60 stayed at school past dark to participate in activities such as sports, speech, or publications, and 89 raced to jobs. " I enjoy going home and relaxing with a good book, without any interruptions from teachers or bells," said Theresa Wilson '84. Other forms of relaxing ranged from watching TV to shopping or catching a movie. " Sometimes I'll go to a movie on Tuesday evenings because it's cheaper and it's a nice break in the middle of the week," said Brian Corzine '84. While some considered a movie a nice break, others said sports helped them unwind. " Basketball helps me clear my mind of all my classroom assignments, and that helps me relax," said Paul McConnell '83.

Could she dare steal a few cents from her life savings? Overcome by guilt, she couldn't bear to take a single penny. She decided to try to get an advance on her allowance instead. In a survey of 100 students, 69 admitted that with the teen umemployment rate at 20 percent, most of their money had to come from parents, in the form of an allowance. Although parents supplied the money, most students said they still tried to stretch bucks as far as possible. Denise Driver '84, said, " I know if I need money , Mom will give it to me , but I just hate to keep asking for more money! " Almost every student found himself searching for ways to save his allowance. Methods varied from storing change in piggy banks and stashing bucks in hiding _ places to pinching pennies at the store with money-saving coupons. Dan Fauble '85 , found saving easy when money was kept out of sight. " If I hide it, I don 't see it," he said, " And if I don 't see it, I won't spend it. " Another method required saving change left over from lunch money . Almost every day , Shelly Gilmore '83 , bought lunch with a dollar bill. The left over quarters were saved for special occasions or just for extra spending money. Sometimes, saving meant clipping coupons for bargain deals. Karan Kowal '85, found herself regularly cutting up newspapers in search of coupons that would save her 25 cents to $ 1.50 on each bargain. She later used this money to buy little extras she couldn't normally afford. Most students found saving money a su'ccessf: l way to guarantee extra bucks for times when their weekly allowance wouldn't stretch past Friday night!

I have to be crazy and clown around because it's my only night of glory," Hansen said. After the four competitions, the 16 contestants were narrowed down to five finalists, each of whom was asked ·a question. Larry Punteney '83, was asked why he thought he should be Mr. Lincoln. Punteney replied, "Because none of the judges like me. In fact they hate me. I have been thrown out of Mrs. Smoley's class, Mrs. Gepner sits me in a corner, Mrs. Hutchison writes referrals on me for laughing, and Mrs. Grandick, oh Mrs. Grandick!" Punteney then asked the judges who hated him to stand.

"It seemed that everyone , from stars to crew members, wanted this production to be the best. " Due to several other local productions, audiences were small, totaling just 500 for three nightly performances, compared to la_st year's 700 for only two . Yet, on the night of the final performance, the curtain closed to a standing ovation . As actors hugged one anothe r and tears streamed down their faces, each one realized that what he had lived for during the last three weeks was over.

Guys decked out in white from head to toe carried purses, flowers, and umbrellas in a gallant effort to help their dates weather the snow and rain. Although the cold drizzle made curls droop and stole part of the night's elegance, spirits would not be dampened as students proceeded to the U.N.O. Ballroom. " The weather was terrible! But once we got inside, we all put on our 'Devo' glasses and Hawai· ian leis and got crazy! " said Sondra Schumacher '83. Students agreed it was easy to let loose and get crazy with the Rumbles playing. " Everyone seemed to have a great time," said Michelle Laird '83. "There was so much white on the dance floor that it looked like one big wedding! " Students were impressed by the huge dance floor and the separate room for picture taking at the U.N.O. Ballroom, where the rental cost was only $350, as opposed to Carter Lake Warehouse 's cost of $1200. Hoop skirts swished under many of the flowing gowns, lending an aura of old fashioned elegance, but as the night wore on, girls learned why the fashion went out of style years ago. "Fast dancing was just fine, but every time we started to dance slow, something always came between us, namely my hoop!" said Julie Brazelton '83.

Boy, was I wrong! I started out unable to get my cap on flat enough to satisfy Mrs. Penny Hutchison , P .E. instructor, who was on a flat-hat rampage . If you had the misfortune to be female , you might have ended up with bobby pins embedded in your skull, so intent was Hutch on yanking your cap down flat. And because it was sweltering in the small gym, those of us who brought a Kleenex (just in case we got sentimental) found we had to use it to mop up puddles of perspiration forming on our necks and faces. Once all 340 of us were quiet, photographer Bob Pyles started expla ining the picture-taking process to us. He said, "Shake hands, smile, pause, don't get caught in the cross-flash." The n Don Scheibeler, class sponsor, reminded us, "Start with the left foot and look up , and don 't walk too slowly, and walk shoulder to shoulder, and guys, wait for the girls at the turns. Oh, and girls, hold your rose in your right hand and leave it on your chair when you get your diploma because you can 't shake hands, grab your diploma, smile , pause, and hold your rose at the same time. Got it? Okay! Let's go graduate! " Have I got it? Sheez! I got lost somewhere between cross-flash and the turns. I felt like I was in the twilight zone! Finally seated in the big gym, I let my mind drift as guest speaker John Clisbe talked about the four parts of the Musical Chord of Excellence (which , by the way, spelled ALHS). I remembered my first days as a soph when my knees shook so badly people thought I was epileptic and I lived in mortal fear of being on the swirlee list or being caught in the student lounge by a senior.

Then the moment we 'd all been waiting for arrived. Our class president , Michelle Maaske , led us in turning our tassles.

" This is it, and all !his confusion and irritability I fe el are because I'm so scared. " In the hallway after the recessional, I peeled off my heat-holding robe. Struggling to keep my tears in check, I spotted my favorite teacher, coach, and friend by the stage doors. He reached out to shake my hand. "Congratulations, " he said. Then my dam burst and a flood of tears streamed down my face as I reached to hug him. By the time I got to the cafe , I had the water works under control, though.

" I should hope I get more than a handshake," she said. So there we were, hugging over the table and crying our eyes out. When I untangled myself, through my tear-blurred vision, I saw my classmates hugging and kissing and crying. I thought to myself how much I would miss them and this building I had referred to as " prison" for so long . We had been through the sam pains and fears and excitement together, and now we were saying so long. Good-bye friends. See you in fi ve years.

"The first cake we made by electrolysis was so good we made three more! When the last cake didn't rise in the carton, we used the batter to make chocolate pancakes on the hot plate!

Another unique learning experience lasted five days, when American Government instructor Roger Kuhl's classes, acting as the Senate and House of Representatives, performed duties of the legislative branch of government. "Both classes got the chance to stand up and debate our bill, which pertained to the enforcement of the death penalty. We really had fun!" said Chris Hobbs '83.

"The thing that shocked me was the shopping list I made for that period. I wouldn't have learned as much if I had just read about it," said Carrie Gray '85. German classes also got an interesting assignment. Each student wrote to a German pen pal and asked for specific information on the economic workings of the pen pal's city. Then, each student gave an oral report. "The differences in each city were amazing, but there was one catch! We gave our speeches in German, so we had to listen closely!" said Diana Thomas '83. Concert Choir students were also asked to perform tricky tasks! One afternoon, the singers were told to sing "aluminum linoleum" repeatedly on middle C. "The exercise was aimed at teaching us to pronounciate correctly when we sing. Everyone got so tongue tied that we all ended up laughing!" said Missy Campbell '83.

As she waited, the frustrated student hoped that this time she would understand her math teacher's explanation. With the help of instructor Connie Byrnes, White walked out of the room 25 minutes later with a look of triumph on her face . For the first time all semester, she actually understood her Math Analysis assignment.

First, as students realized that special skills would be needed to survive in a highly technological world , enrollment soared in math and science. In Computer Math , for example, enrollment more than doubled from last year. Several juniors were even asked to drop the class until the next year so that seniors could be given first priority . Secondly, the school board forced students to experience more difficult classes that they had formerly tried to avoid. Under requirements passed in the spring of '82, incoming sophomores were required to take two additional semesters of English and math, and one additional semester of science and American Government. New sophs were also forced to select and fully complete one program of study before graduation. In a poll of 100 students, 52 said that math classes, especially trig and Compute r Math, were the most frustrating for them. "In trig, we learn something new everyday, and when a class moves that fast , it's almost impossible to grasp all the concepts and remember them," said Hans Larsen '84. These difficult classes, however, also brought about strong feelings of accomplishment when projects were finally completed . "Some computer projects got me so frustrated because the smallest mistake could cause a whole program to mess up ," said Susan Gaffney '83.

With math classes ranking at the top of the list as most frustrating, students really appreciated understanding teachers. "In calculus, Mr. Miller works out all of the problems from the day before on the chalk board, and he gives us a certain number of points for trying a problem, " said Mary Jo Rogic '83. " This way we aren't punished for not understanding, and that keeps us interested in learning more." Keeping students interested in a demanding course was also a challenge that American Government teachers faced. Although the course had been offered only two years, it had already acquired a reputation as a difficult class in which 33 chapters were covered at the rate of two a week. To alleviate the monotony of reading, studying , and testing, instructor Marsha Grandick assigned each of her students to inte rview a local government official a nd then give oral reports on the individual's qualifications and duties. " When Mrs. Grandick first gave us the assignment, I was afraid to call the person I was assigned to, the city clerk," said Julie Bostwick '84 . " But when I talked to her, I really learned a lot about her job and what was going on in the city." Another new requirement, General Science, also proved to be difficult for students. Providing an introduction to several types of sciences, areas of study ranged from the metric system to the environment. " I took General Science to avoid a full year of science," said Shawn McKern '85. " Although at times I've gotten frustrated when we've had to memorize the parts of the mi· croscope and take tests all the time, I know I've learned more about science than I ever thought I would." Although teachers anticipated motiva tion problems when seven English electives were cut last spring, many students said they actually preferred a required English class to an elective. "I like English 5-6 because it will be helpful for college entrance exams," said Carolyn Andersen '84. " It's also nice to !_earn a combination of composition, grammar, and literature." One frustrating but rewarding task encountered in English 5-6 was that of writing a research paper. " When I was working on my research paper, I had a really hard tim(! taking the information I had gathered from books and putting it into my own words," said J oni Flynn '84. " I was so glad when it was finally done and I didn't have to stay up until 1 a.m. every night any more." Although students were bound to experience days of total frustration, each felt satisfaction when a project was accomplished. Most agreed that these shining moments of glory outweighed times of exasperation.

Alternate day physical education tougher than expected F or most students, the dreaded change from eight to seven periods had only one advantage - they no longer had to change into gym clothes five days a week or experience the daily humiliation of swinging at balls which always whizzed by them. Students were ecstatic to think that the sweat and energy they had poured into physical education five days a week would have to be expended just two or three times a week under the new alternate day physical education requirements. But on the first day, teachers dropped the bomb. Physical fitness tests would be taken twice a year, skills tests would be required for every unit, and getting out of class for field trips or other activities would be almost an impossible mission. But students looked on these requirements cheerily. They could put up with anything if it happened only every othe'r day. Then came the grueling physical fitness tests. In previous years, students could miss an individual test and still receive a good grade for the class, but under new rules, all tests had to be taken or students were threatened with F's for the quarter. " I was really worried about my incomplete," said Jill Krabbe '83, "so I made up the shuttle run, and sit-ups in one day. After the 50 and 600, my legs felt like wet noodles. I thought it was unfair to have to do it just to get it done. " Many non-athletes who wanted an easy physical education class found a surprise awaiting them. Because a lternate day classes provided for the elimination of two teachers, many elective units were dropped in the fall so there would be enough teachers for basic sports. " I don't like the lack of variety this year," 46 academics said Tom Wyatt '84. "This unit, we could take either basketball or weightlifting, and by the time we got there to sign up, weightlifting was taken by athletes." Stl.!_dents were also disappointed because the classes, which remained became structured courses in skills and rules, with more emphasis on exercises at the beginning of each class. Few people could understand how a quick ten minutes of exercises three times a week could be helpful. " Nobody likes the exercises," said Lori Hill '83. "We didn't do them last year and I don't see what good they're doing this year. Besides, we usually wait until the teacher turns her back; then we do half the exe rcises and tell her we 're done ." Students who really suffered were athletes. Many of them enjoyed having physical education every day because it gave them an opportunity to work out in the weight room. " I used to be able to work thre e days a week on my legs and two on my arms," said Kim Behrens '83, "but now I can't. " Teachers disliked alternate day physical education even more than students. Most said it caused extra work and allowed less time for each student to get individual he lp. " We have to fill out an eva lua tion on how well each student le arns certa in skills," said Penny Hutchi.son, physical education teacher, "and because we have different students on a lternate days some of us have almost twice as many students as last yea r. " Although there were problems in the new alternate day classes, some students continued to look forward to physica l education. " Physical education is like a recess from school," said Mark Lee '84. " I think without it, school would be a lot harder be cause there would be no break from the books." _. ........... ...,., UP, UP, AND AWAY, Kris Bottrell strains to achieve a Jong distance in the broad jump during the spring physical fitness test.

A quick glance a t the clock confirmed he r fears - It was 7:50 - just 40 minutes before she was due in the office. Maybe midnight had been too late to stay out. So began a typical Saturday morning for Lori Connor '83. Connor was a member of the newly formed Office Education class through which students worked , earned cred· its, received a salary, and gave up Saturday mornings to satisfy their curiosity about the secretarial profession . " The class is very helpful; it gives you experience you need," Connor said. " In the office, you are in a real life situation, not just a role play. You either do or die! " Participating in real life situations proved to be helpful to seven Office Educa tion students who went to Des Moines to take part in th e Office Education Stat e Confere nc e , where they competed in categories ranging from typing to record management. "The confe rence was a great experience. It gave us a good ic;l ea of how good we were compared to others in our fi eld ," said Suzie Welch '83. " It was also neat to meet new people and make new friends, especially from Tee Jay, our rival school. " Students in other coop programs such as Deca, Trades and Industries, and Food Ser· vices also received credits for working. " Through T and I, I've learned about in· surance , the banking syst em, and what classes to ta ke a t college," said J erry Hindt '83.

" I found that welding class got tiring and hot because we spent the whole three hours welding, " said Kevin Smith '83. "At least the class was valuable because I found out welding wasn't for me ." Other welding students found their class worthwhile, as they combined efforts to construct a plaque which would greet oncoming traffic on Interstate 80. In the shape of Iowa with railroad tracks leading into the state, the plaque stood nearly 12 feet tall. Constructing projects was also the main goal of the building classes. But on snowy or rainy days, efforts were stifled and students were forced to sit in a stuffy room.

" By taking the threehour class, I missed out on academic skills such as foreign language or chemistry, but I'll probably end up going to college anyway." Weather had no effect on heating and air conditioning students who were confronted by mazes of countl_ess wires when they attempted to repair residential units. "The starting salary in this field is $11 to $15 an hour," said Paul Lewis '84. "Even if I don't go into the trade , I've learned something I can do for myself. I won't have to rely on a professional. " But those who decided on a vocational career had the chance for a head start through these classes. "This type of class gives the students a foot in the door. An employer will look at these students rather than a person without experience, " said William Harriman , heating and air conditioning instructor. "We also try to work on a good attitude towards employ· ment - an honest day's work for an honest day's pay." By taking cosmetology through Stewart's, Tammy Bronson '83, achieved a definite head start in her career. " I enjoy cosmetology so much I've decided to go into it as a profession after high school, " Bronson said. "By taking this class I'll have to pay for only about 1800 hours of college instead of 2100 hours." Whether students gave up extra hours to get more involved in a career or found their dream job was not quite what they had expected, most realized they were on their way to making a career choice as they broke outside the four walls of a regular classroom .

Meanwhile , Patty McSorley '84 , hovered over the stove, browning each golden crepe just until its edges were light and flakey. fina ll y, as Leth poured her cheese sauce into a bowl, the plan slipped out of her hand , spla ttering the sauce onto everything nearby, including McSorley . Across the room, Jodie Core '84, caught a glimpse of the accident and the cheese-covered jeans. When Core burst into laughter, McSorl ey turned to see the entire class pointing a t her crusty ye ll ow jeans. " It was awful! There was cheese all over me, even in my hair," McSorley said. " The worst part was going th rough school like that, a nd it wasn 't even my fault! " Despite the confusion and mess, McSorley and Leth e njoyed a yummy meal and the satisfaction of having prepared it themselves. Cooking provided one way for students to express and foster the ir creativity. " In Advanced f oods classes, for example, students prepared everything from basic America n fare to more exotic foods from far off lands," said Mrs. Patti f ord , home economics instructor. Cooking classes were just pa rt of the wide ra nge of creative courses in which students could inv olve th ems e lv es. Se ni or Eunice Fitch participated in a n independent study course in which she chose house hold crafts as her proj ec t. " To redecorate my room, I made curtains, a quilt, a nd refinished a rock ing cha ir," Fitch sa id . " It took a lot of time beca use of the detail ing, but it will last much longe r, a nd it 's just what I wanted since I designed and finished it myself. " Many students found that being allowed to deviate from the basic curriculum promoted emphasis on detailing . " I never could ha ve made a ja cket without this class. At home , I never follow directions, but in Advanced Clothing, I have to get every detail so it's just perfect," said We nd y Glenn '84. Following directions a nd developing an eye for detail were also the goals of art students. In Commercial Art class e s, students lea rned design and advertising . Cha rise Smith '84, did a proj ect using pointalism, a technique of shading with tin y dots. To create a Led Zeppelin conce rt poster, she chose appropriate lettering and pictures.

Industry, drama, journalism courses encourage discovery, development of inner creativity The rewards of finishing a project, receiving a good grade, and finally taking it home belonged to industrial arts students. In Basic Metals, Bart Taylor '84, designed and built a dog box. The true payoff came when Taylor's box was estimated to cost at least $150 if he had bought it assembled. Yet, Taylor paid only $30 for the materials. Machines class taught students to make their own tools. " Now I can use the screwdriver I made when I build things. That class taught me a lot that I didn't already know," said Tim Gilman '84 . After finding skills students already had, Mrs. Pat Rockwell, drama instructor, worked to develop hidden creativity through improvisation, script writing, and performance. Debi Elliott '83, used he r abilities to write and produce a small-cast play, which 54 academics dealt with a teenage mother awaiting the birth of her baby and not knowing how to cope with the unplanned pregnancy. - " It felt good knowing that people were entertained by something I wrote," Elliott said. "At first, I didn't think it was that good, but most people enjoyed it since it was something they could relate to. " In addition to writing, Journalism 1-2 students concentrated their efforts on design and layout. Using scissors, glue, layout sheets, and magazine clippings, students got a chance to express their creativity. "This was the first time I spent six weeks on design and layout. It provided a break for students from writing, researching, and editing," said Mrs. Linda Smoley, journalism instructor. "It showed them a whole new side. of journalism!" As some students enjoyed layout, others practiced w·riting with hope that their work would be published. "Because I knew my story would be used in the yearbook, I had extra incentive to let my originality show through," said Angela Hauser '85. Whether students took economics, art, media, industrial arts, drama, or journalism classes, most agreed that being allowed to deviate from the basic curriculum gave them the chance to develop their originality. " You learn so much more when you are allowed the freedom to de velop your own abilities and let your creativity show through!" said Heidi Thoren '85.

Grabbing a chair, he a~grily sat down at the table and ignored everyone . "What's eating you?" asked Dave Brown, special education instructor. When the upset boy answered curtly, "I don't want to talk about it!", two girls suddenly piped up, "Come on, John! If we can't tell each other what's bothering us, what are we doing in here?" After a few minutes, the boy shrugged his shoulders and finally replied, "Okay, you win! I'll tell you what's wrong! " Classmates often discussed their troubles and feelings when they got together in the special education department's newlyformed Peer Group class. " Group is a time for kids to sit down and discuss a certain topic and get different views and attitudes," Brown said. " No one's views are wrong and everyone should respect one another's attitudes and ideas." As students sat in an informal circle, they talked about topics ranging from weekend plans to problems with friends, family, sex, drugs, and school. Brown originally used the same approach with fifth through tenth grade gifted students at BrowneH- Talbot School in Omaha. Even more special education students had an opportunity to participate in the peer groups when new counselor Mrs. Sharon Ballenger began working with special education instructor Cory Larson . Before coming to AL, Ballenger had worked for five years with peer groups at Roncalli High School in Omaha . While Brown's group was made up only of students within the special educa tion department, Ballenger and La rson's group com56 academics bined students who had learning disabilities and emotionally disturbed students with seven students chosen at random. Ballenger and Larson's group sometimes tried a feedback circle where one person sat in the middle and each member in the circle said one positive thing about the person in the middle. Then, if the person in the middle wanted to, every person pointed out a negative thing about the person. "The feedback circle depended on a positive stroke before a negative one," Ballenger said. "We also allowed people the freedom to pass if they didn't wish to participate." According to Larson, the peer groups were important for three main reasons. First, he said that under Iowa law, special education students had to be mainstreamed or placed in classes and situations with regu'. Jar students who don't have handicaps. "Research has shown that people wh-0 have so-called handicaps improve much faster if they are placed with regular kids and treated just the same," Larson said. Secondly, he said these groups gave students a chance to help other kids. "When I know I've helped someone else with a problem, I feel better about myself, " said Dennis Olson '84. Lastly, Larson said that the peer groups gave students a place where they could talk about any topic they chose without the fear of being put down . "Group is a time to release your feelings without getting looked down upon because of the way you feel ," said Pam Jeter '83. "ALL RIGHT! WE WON!"

This was the familiar routine many students followed to "psyche themselves up" for studying. In a poll of 81 students, 72 percent said they listened to the radio while doing homework. "The hyped-up music on Sweet 98 makes me do my homework more quickly," said Lori Christiansen '85. In the same survey, 54 percent of the students admitted to spending an hour on homework each night. Most said this was a decline from last year because under the new 50- minute periods, most teachers gave students the extra 10 minutes to work. In the hour students worked at home, they said they spent the most time on math, English, and American Studies, which usually involved short, daily assignments. "I KNOW THAT ONE," thinks Tanya Davis as her mother quizzes her over the next day's German vocabulary words. 58 special feature While most students pref erred such short assignments, a few enjoyed the challenge of a research project. "I learned how to approach people and what to say to them when I worked on my in-depth story on death for "The Echoes," said Tanya Davis '83. Students found some assignments proved to be more beneficial than others. A poll of 103 students showed 44 percent thought English assignments were least beneficial. Jane Anderson '83, criticized her English 7-8 literature assignments, saying, "They are useless because you don't learn anything, and everyone sits in class discussions waiting for someone else to speak up." Yet, according to 4 7 percent of the students surveyed, math assignments were especially beneficial. "My math homework is really useful because I know what I'm doing when I take a test," said Andy Hofert '85. But students agreed that the most important factor in determining the benefits of any assignments was the student himself. "If a student doesn't care, he's not going to learn, regardless of the assignment," said Julie Johnson '84. Of the students surveyed, 92 percent claimed they studied for tests, and a variety of ways of cramming were mentioned. While 69 percent said they just memorized, 23 percent used more creative ways to learn. "I use word association to learn vocabulary. For instance, the word jaded means tired, my name begins with a j, and I'm always tired," said Jayne Nelson '84. While teachers and 36 percent of the students claimed to take homework seriously, most took it more lightly. "I rank homework third behind reading my Newsweek and getting gas for my car," said Joe Atkinson '84- Several students said, however, that besides giving a better understanding of the material, homework taught them to become more independent and organize work hours. No matter when, where, or how studehts did their homework, everyone agreed it was a necessity for earning those all-important good grades.

To most, making their own clothes seemed to be much more complicated and time consuming than buying an outfit on an afternoon shopping spree. But in a survey of 70 students, 14 said they made part of their own wardrobe. "I sew approximately six different items of clothing during one year," said Rhonda Smith '83. "I don't mind spending the time because it saves me over $40 a year, and it allows my clothes to fit better." In addition to economy and fit, seamstresses found they could create unique outfits they especially liked. "I very rarely use one certain pattern," said Eunice Fitch '83. "I use parts I like of several patterns so that I can have a dress I love everything about." But students involved in craftmaking didn't necessarily have to be talented with a needle and thread. Many teens spent hours knitting, crocheting, creating pottery, and woodworking. " I made a three and a half foot tall wood stereo cabinet," said Tony Kill '84. " It took me only eight hours to make, and I saved about $60." Other students found craftmaking a way to personalize gifts without extra expense. " I spent approximately 21 hours making a leather purse for my sister's birthday," said Tom Moss '85. "She's used it for three years already and it still looks nice because it's better quality than one you could buy." No matter what crafts students created, even though time and work had to be expended, in the long run, money was saved.

"The team keeps getting better every year! It's going to be hard to improve next year, especially since six of us qualified for State," said Tim Coppock '85. The boys' golf team also felt the thrill of victory. After tying for second place in Metro competition, the boys took the city championship and went on to win the Council Bluffs Invitational against ten other teams. "We set a lot of goals at the beginning of the season, but we achieved more than we thought possible! " said Kim Heater '83. The football team accomplished even more than their fans could imagine, snatching not only the city championship, but also their first winning season in eight years! "It's hard to believe that the same team that only scored one touchdown in the past two years could be so successful this year," said Chris Beno '83. "When we won our last game, the whole team went crazy! " Spring sports, too, made their mark in the record book. "Everyone has been fired up since the first tournament. It seems that every time we play, we perform better than the previous time. Since we're a fairly young team, that's surprising! " said John Schwertley '85. . Track season had barely begun, and already the Lady Lynx had won three invitationals, simultaneously breaking a 440-yard meet record, the 3000-yard school record, and the southwest Iowa shotput record. Girls' basketball players also felt the thrill of unexpected accomplishments. After they set two school records by making 91 percent of their free throws in one game and achieving an astonishing 19 assists in another, the players took the city championship and set an all-time record of 14 wins!

Allowing the Jackets only 43 offensive yards, the Lynx proved that with a little confidence and a lot of teamwork, they could pull out of a seven-year losing streak and post a 5-4 record. The team started the season with long, hot summer practices. On the first day, Coach Steve Chambers wore a T-shirt with the not-so-encouraging words, " Is there life after practice?" on the back. But to keep his team determined, Chambers sent letters of encouragement to each player every week. "O ne week , he sent us a pyramid," said Bryan Whitfield '83. "Each block was a different characteristic of a winner. The base was TEAMWORK." CELEBRATING A WINNING SEASON along with his teammates, Jeff Randall wears an Abe Lynx stocking hat at the last game against Ryan. He looks on as the clock winds down to a final score of 55-6. Chambers' philosophy of teamwork as the key kept the boys going throughout the year. "Because we had a coach who brought us together, we were no longer just a bunch of guys playing for ourselves," said Bret Taylor '83. Together, teammates waited over an hour as the St. Albert game was delayed because of a mix-up between refs and officials. "The delay really affected us," said Nate Storey '83. "When you're as fired up as we were for that game, it's hard to contain your energy. We were worn out before we got on the field!" But the delay didn't affect the Lynx scoring drive . AL won 30-12. After suffering losses to Omaha South and Millard North, the Lynx were fired up for Omaha North. " We knew it was their Homecoming, and we wanted to ruin someone else's for a change," said Phil Morrison '83. The Lynx succeeded, 20-0.

"It seems that if we aren't winning at the half, we don't have a chance." tiut despite losses to four Omaha teams the Lynx were happy with two Omaha victories under their belt, especially the crushing of Ryan in the season finale , 55-6. During the final pep assembly, Taylor, along with the other senior players, thanked Coach Bob Burns for starting them on a weight-training program as sophomores. Sadness filled the air as each senior expressed his thanks to Chambers and the fans for their support. "When Coach Chambers explained the meaning of the word "TEAM" as, 'Together, each accomplishes more ' , I wasn 't sure what he meant. After this season, I am," said Taylor.

Players recalled the South game, when they were winning 8-0 and South scored a touchdown with two minutes left. "The whole team was relieved when the defense played together to stop the two-point conversion," said David Paulson '85. In general, sophs felt teammates showed a positive attitude and gave 100 percent. "We were so determined to beat St. Albert that we gave it all we had," said Matt Malskeit '85.

Outstanding players, according to Coach Joe Hauser, were running backs Jeff Hogan and Jim Westmoreland, Todd Pettepier at defensive end, and Shawn Russell, defensive back. While sophomore and varsity teams were crushing opponents, the junior varsity struggled to finish with a 2-5 record. One problem players mentioned was the shifting of people from JV to varsity. "We'd just get used to everyone, and then the coaches would move one of us up to varsity. We just didn't have enough depth to do that," said Tim Gilman '84. Another difficulty was practicing with the varsity.

"The coaches weren't really our coaches. They were too involved with the varsity," said one player. But according to JV coach Phil Nielsen, there just weren't enough coaches for both teams. " More than four coaches are needed for 60 players," he said. Players felt the most essential element they were missing was the ability to play as a team. An example of this was the Tee Jay game when the Lynx were ahead at halftime, 6-0. " We thought we had it, so the . second half we didn't play together at all. We lost the game 16-27," said Brad Hemmingsen '84. According to Nielsen, leading the JV were Anthony Mitchell, who rushed for 120 yards against Papio, and linemen Tony Laurito, Kevin Shew, Brian Corzine, and Tony Kill.

Runners attributed their success to talent and hard work, reporting that most ran five to ten miles in practice per day and up to six miles on weekends, often in rain , mud, and snow. "They worked us pretty hard in practice , but it made me feel good about myself to know I was improv· ing," said Lori McKern '85. Support from teammates also proved vital as few parents and even fewer fans turned out to root for the team.

We actually beat a team that is rated in State." "Beating Atlantic was the highlight of the season because we had lost to them earlier," said Jodie Core '84. "We really wanted that win to show everyone that we were better than them." Although the team didn't achieve a winning record, players saw the 4- 5 finish as a vast improvement over the 1-8 record from 1981 . "This season was really fun because we played as a team instead of as individuals," said Amy Petersen '84. "We also did better because whenever we had any problems, the coaches made sure we talked about them." Many girls agreed that keeping an open line of communication between players and coaches and among teammates was a factor that influenced play. Jill Krabbe '83, remembered one time when talking openly as a group helped. " At one practice when we were all feeling down because we had lost so much, our coaches made us sit down and talk about our feelings," Krabbe said. "That conversation might have been the turning point which helped us win." Several players attributed the team's improvement to new coaches Mary Kyte, Kirn physical education instructor, and Sherri Wehr, physical education student teacher, who were always able to psyche the girls up before games. Wehr was fondly nicknamed Whiz for this ability. "Whenever Whiz would say, 'Come on you guys, get animal!' we thought we could beat about anyWITH A LOOK OF DETERMINATION, Stephanie Gray passes the ball to Cindy Wilson in a JV game against Gross. one," Core said.

Then, in the Metro Tournament, we beat them, 2-1." Petersen, who was named most valuable player by Kyte and Wehr, led the team in ace sets (120), ace serves (66), and spiking percentage (90.1), while Dee Christensen '84, led in ace spikes (74) and blocks (61). White was the top server (97 .4 percent). For the second year, Petersen was a first-team selection to the allcity team. Carol Koesters '83, and Core were named to the second all· city team.

Minutes later, Coppock shook his opponent's hand before his own was raised in victory by the referee. Coppock had just beaten Tod Clapper '83, a three-time State qualifier and close friend from Lewis Central, in the semi-finals of District com petition. " I felt great when I beat Clapper because in seven years of wrestling him, I was never able to beat him, " Coppock said. Coppock's individual win was not the team's only triumph over Lewis Central. For the first time in three years, the Lynx defeated the Titans 35-22 in a dual meet. With this win, the Lynx gained the city crown, a perfect dual record of 8-0, and a ninth place State rating by the Iowa Daily Press. " We were all really glad when we beat Lewis Central because they always beat us," said Bart Taylor '84.

Storey was later defeated by Nebe . and Jeff Randall '83, and Taylor each won his second individual title. This win gave Taylor a chance to win three championships, a feat only five wrestlers had ever accomplished, according to Coach Clark Allen. Winning 191 matches to 98 for their opponents, and outscoring opponents 354 to 133, the Lynx made winning look easy, but behind the scenes, the wrestlers made sacrifices to train for competition. Losing a total of 125 pounds, team members agreed that cutting weight was their biggest sacrifice. "During wrestling, I practically lived in the boiler room because whenever I was a few pounds overweight, I'd sit there trying to sweat it off," said Tom Kruse '84. Other sacrifices included sitting home on weekends when friends were out partying, and accepting lower grades because little time could be devoted to school work . But wrestlers said their success was definitely worth the sacrifices. "Wrestling's a great sport because it's just you out there on the mat. You know you can't rely on your teammates, " Taylor said . "When you win your match , you know you did it all by yourself. " Six wrestlers received the special distinction of qualifying for State competition. Although Taylor, Randall, Coppock, Nate Storey '83, Mike Wright '84, and Rob Varner '85, competed, only Taylor and Storey finished in the top six, both placing fifth . According to Allen, many wrestlers did so well because of their dedication over several years. "These guys have been wrestling since junior high or before and some have traveled around the country with other teams," Allen said . Although the team was dedicated and experienced, wrestlers agreed that they wouldn't have been as successful without Allen's coaching. "Mr. Allen's a great coach. He always gets down on the mats and wrestles around with us," said Andy Morrison '85. "Off the mat, he doesn't talk down to us, he treats us like good friends." METRO CHAMP.

With that victory, team members, fans, and even the local media predicted a great season for the Lynx. But those hopes were dashed as cold shooting hovered over the Lynx's 5-13 season. At season's end, stats showed that the Lynx had shot at only 39 percent, and that if their average would have been 43 percent, 12 of the 13 lost games would have been won.

"Turnovers, fouls, and the excellent teams we played kept us from a winning season," said Coach Terrell Clinton. When sophomore players who were moved up got more playing time than juniors, quarrels resulted which also hampered the team's efforts, according to players. "The conflict hurt teamwork, " said John Schwertley '85. " It's hard to play with so much tension. " Yet, teamwork flourished during the Harlan game .

The score stood at 52-46 with two minutes on the clock. Christensen knew her free throws would either make or break the game. "When I missed the first one, I got really nervous, but I surprised myself and everyone else by making the next six," she said. In just one minute, the Lynx had raised the score to 59-50, and 15 ecstatic girls realized the city championship was theirs. Capturing the city crown was just one goal the girls set. Another was to beat cross-town rival Tee Jay each time they would meet. When the rivals met the first time on the Lynx home court, Susan Draper '84, managed to score 46 points, the most scored in one game by an individual. Draper's efforts boosted the Lynx to a 74-70 victory over the Yellowjackets. When the teams met the second time , the Lady Lynx came from behind to send the game into overtime. " It was the girls' ability to stay calm in a tense situation which helped them win 75-71 ," said Coach Dave Brown. The final defeat occurred during sectionals 66-54 , bringing the Lynx's final record to 14-7. But the victory that would be remembered the longest was the easiest to gain. On Feb. 12, the Lynx trounced Underwood 65-44, to capture their thirteenth win and a new school record for most games won in one season by a girls' team. " Winning was great because it was so easy; afterward we all relaxed, goofing around on the way home," said Kim Behrens '83. With the city championship and their history-making record behind them, the Lady Lynx entered their last home game against top-rated Tri Center with confidence. Before a fired-up crowd on Parents' Night, the Lynx were just two points behind the 17-0 Tri Center team when the last few seconds ticked away. As the final buzzer sounded, Christensen scored two points, sending the game into overtime. "We put so much energy into the game that when they won 65-55, it was super disappointing," said Kim Heater '83. T earn members attributed their success to respect between players and Brown. A new system of bench decorum, including punishments for unsportsmanlike conduct, helped promote this respect. " We really learned to control our anger during games and practices," said Jodie Core '84. Tough two and a half hour practices consisting of laps, stretching, sprints, scrimmaging, and drills also contributed to success. " Practices were a killer, but I know they helped to build our stamina," said Missy Campbell '83. From the successful team came individual triumphs. Draper scored a record 610 points, helped by 104 assists· from Christense n. Ca rol Koesters '83, had the top free throw percentage of 65 percent.

But hopes for a victory were crushed as South beat the Lynx by six points. Even though the girls were disheartened by the South and Bryan meets, which they lost by just 14 points, they managed to achieve their main goal of pulling off an impressive victory over Tee Jay. "We decided that if we won only one meet, it would be against Tee Jay," said Rose Keller '83. As for the team's four losses Michelle Laird '83, who was forced out of competition because of an injury, offered one explanation. "Throughout the season, we were too undisciplined and unorganized to compete," she said. With a team comprised of all sophomores and juniors, the boys managed to scrape up only one S WIMMING.

The team was hurt most when five key seniors chose not to participate. Chuck Fetrow '83, who set six school records his junior year, was one of those five . "I went to AAU for better competition and scholarship opportunities," he said. Other record-breaking swimmers said they gave up swimming for jobs or other sports. With the loss of the five teammates, swimmers often found themselves outnumbered by opponents, and some swimmers had to compete in events to which they were unaccustomed. Ron Murray '84, for example, had to take over the butterfly stroke for Dick Chopra '83, who graduated in mid-season. "After Dick left, I was stuck with a stroke that I didn't have a chance to win with," Murray said. Team members felt that lack of practice time, compared to the 12 A PERFECT TAK EOFF is essential for Julie Johnson as she practices the 100- yard breast stroke at Kirn Pool. hours a week most Omaha teams spent in the water, also contributed to the Lynx's poor record. "We had only one and a half hours of practice a day because Tee Jay and AAU had to have the same amount of practice time we did. With that little time, we couldn't do much after we had completed our 3,000 meters of laps," said Eric Coleman '84, who recorded a seventh place ranking at Districts. But through all their disappointments, most swimmers said that the season was worth the effort. " It wasn't easy to go out and give 100 percent every time, but we supported each other, win or lose, " said James Johannes '85. Outstanding swimmers named by Coach Joe Hauser were J.

But the boys' tennis team accepted this challenge and managed to achieve winning records of 6-3 in the fall and 6-2 in the spring. "Coming away with two winning seasons after losing the top three senior players was quite an accomplishment, especially when you consider that one of our top six players was a sophomore and one was a freshman, " said Chris Leu '84. According to first-year coach Mike Forbes, two lucky breaks had a lot to do with the boys' success. One piece of luck was the arrival of senior Andres Silva, a foreign exchange student from Columbia, who played number one singles and teamed with Joe Foroughi '83, for number one doubles. At Districts, for example, Silva was in the middle of the third game in a set and was ahead 2-0, when he developed leg cramps and had to forfeit. Forbes said that if this problem wouldn't have occurred, Silva had a good chance of going to State. The second lucky break came when the school board passed a rule which allowed selected ninth graders to participate in varsity sports. TENNIS.

At State, the Lady Lynx placed ninth. Besides winning th shot, Christensen took third in the discus, while the 880-relay team finished fourth . The only major drawback the boys faced resulted from a new ruling by the Iowa High School Athletic Association. According to Coach Joe Hauser, the Lynx were not as well represented at State as in previous years because no Districts were held. Instead, the top 24 times in state from throughout the season qualified . Some Lynx runners didn 't participate at State because of this ruling.

Two months later, Punteney represented the Lynx in the State bowling tournament, where he placed sixth. "It was a fantastic payoff for the 11 years of hard work and dedication.

Resentment, rewards all part of sitting out '\fJM1 ANTED: An enthusiastic ~ team supporter who can offer strong competition during practice; will be needed as an occasional substitute; must be able to keep a stiff upper lip, sit on bench for long periods of time, and maintain good attitude. These were some of the more desirable characteristics coaches wanted in second string players. Benchwarmers, however, sometimes found it difficult to be supportive and positive when they were feeling jealous, embarrassed, and overlooked or disliked by the coach. " I feel worse about going in for the last three minutes of a game that's already won than if I don 't play at all," said Diane Schoeppner '85. " It's really embarrassing for everyone to know you 're second string." Many benchwarmers blamed their position on the coach. " I don't think it's fair that not everyone gets to play in games," said Bob Rau '85. " I work hard in practice, but I don't get to prove it in a game. Sometimes I think it's the coach's fault because he wants to win so much he forgets about everyone but the starters." According to Bob Burns, baseball coach, poor attitudes were common. " Most players would rather gripe and complain than work harder to earn the position," he said. " It's an exception to have a player who tries to improve whereas it's common to listen to a benched player moan and carry on and ruin team morale. " To avoid such problems, new boys' basketball coach Phil Nielsen dealt at the start of the season with players he felt lacked experience or ability. He told them that although he 'd like them to keep practicing, they wouldn't be suiting up. " I think it's dishonest to let an athlete think he's going to play if he isn 't going to. I don 't like to let themsit on the bench anymore than they like to be there," he said . "But my job is to win games." Despite negative feelings of benchwarmers, some believed sitting out was a good experience. " I cheer and give encouragement to whoever is playing," said Janette Pearcy '85. "I'm part of the team, too, and I think it's important for DISAPPOINTED BECAUSE SHE had to play behind sophomore s, Sum mer Erlands on stares away from the action on the volleyball c ourt . teammates to be supportive." Some felt they learned from sitting on the bench. " You can learn just by watching," said Bob Stephens '85. " I've learned a lot about other teams' strategies and I've gotten a better understanding of our own plays." This type of attitude, according to Dave Brown , girls' basketball coach, made for a valuable player who contributed to the team. "Without such players, I don 't think our team would be as good as it is because the varsity wouldn 't have anyone to practice against," he said. Several benchwarmers agreed with Brown that they weren 't just wasting their time and energy. " I'm gaining experience and I'm improving myself every day at practice ," said Julie Andersen '85. " I know that I have more of a chance to play next year." Although being a benchwarmer was a difficult position, team members and coaches believed that with a positive attitude, a benchwarmer could be an important part of a team. WHEN'S MY TURN?

But after a quick glance at the price tag, she knew the dress was to be left on the rack. In a survey of 48 students, 32 said they searched different stores and sales for bargains in clothing. " I shop all sales and look until I find something I like," said LeeAnn Marnin '83. " I rarely pay full price for my clothes." Many girls waited for spring or fall clearance sales to purchase clothing for the next year. " I go shopping each spring for plain colored sweaters and long sleeved shirts for the next year, " said Cathie Rhodes '83 "I try to find things that won't go out of style. " According to a Brandeis salesperson, e ight out of eve ry ten students who shopped at the Brandeis junior department looked for bargains. " When I go shopping, I look for something cute," said Andrea Sasso '84: " but I will always make sure it is inexpensive or on sale." When intrigued by a fad but afraid it would soon go out of style, students usually turned to discount stores. " (go shopping at K-Mart for all the new fashions that come out," said Angie Simmons '83. " I like the styles they have at the lower prices." Girls weren't the only ones who shopped for bargains. " I shop K-Mart or JC Penney's for the best bargains," said Dave Park '83. Many boys, though, said they hated shopping and preferred sending their parents. "I tell my parents what I need and then they go get it," said Larry Nuzum '83. "I can't stand looking at clothes; it's too boring!" Whether clothes were purchased as expressions of personality or as mere necessities, most students hunted diligently for bargains when they added to their wardrobes.

" I couldn't believe it when twins Ben and Jess File got the same gift, a book on how to pick up girls! It was so ironic! " said Jamie White '84. Like Speech and Debate Club, many organizations made the events they participated in crazier than ususal. Senior porn pon girls, for example, decided to do more than just eat the cake that was given to them by the sophomores and juniors of the squad. "We were all in tbe student lounge eating when Monica Nunez shoved a huge piece of cake in my mouth! That's what started a cake fight!" said Susan Lara '83. Pompon girls weren't the only students to receive a tasty treat! On Abraham Lincoln's birthday, each of the 966 students received a free doughnut for breakfast, courtesy of Pep Club.

"We wanted to do something different that everyone would remember, even if it took 1000 doughnuts to do it!" said Shelly Moore '84. Foreign Student Club also took advantage of what could have been a boring day. While decorating for Christmas Dance, members decided to try breathing in the helium that was supposed to be used for balloons. "A lot of us didn't know we would talk with a squeaky voice as a result of breathing in the helium. We got a kick out of it, so we did it all day!" said Gayle Swartz '83. Band members also experienced squirrelly feelings during their hay-rack ride after a football game. "Some kids jumped off their rack, ran ahead, and hid in the bushes. When another rack would catch up with them, they would jump out and scare everybody. Everyone thought the practical jokers were strangers trying to get them!" said Debbi Nielsen '83. Imagine it! Organization members gave Playboys as gifts, staged cake fights, and got high on helium! Who would have believed it? "I WAS JUST SITTING THERE when all of the sudden I felt this huge piece of cake slap the side of my face!" said Sandi Voss. Voss cringes at the sight of cake through her glasses as other porn pon girls finish the cake fight.

Carefully aligning themselves with various points on the gym floor, 11 Lynx porn pon girls strived to perfect the routine they had learned and on which they would be judged later. The next morning, when time for evaluation rolled around, the girls learned they would perform outdoors in the grass instead of on the line-marked floor where they had practiced. Neverthe less, the _ girls returned with a trophy for being a "Superstar Squad.

First, the squads faced the pressures of earning money to help each girl buy a uniform. Although car washes, clinics, rummage sales, and dunking booths could offer the girls only $20 a piece for their $100 uniforms, many girls felt that the time they spent together strengthened bonds between them. " Moneymaking really helped all of us get to know each other better," said Shelly Welch '84. Soon the excitement generated by a winning football team boosted the squads' energy level. "We all looked forward to the games," said Ann Szemplenski '85. " It was always fun when we all got together to cheer." But having everyone together wasn't always an advantage CHARGE! Pom pon girls fire up at a basketball game by joining in on an echo cheer. "WHEN DO WE STOP?" seems to be Sara Draper's thought as she watches Joni Powers for the signal to end a che er at a home wrestling match . when preparing for an assembly. Cheerleaders and porn pon girls alike admitted that pep assemblies weren't well organized and lacked new ideas. " It's true; some of the pep assemblies were boring, but we weren't hired as professional entertainers," said Susan Gaffney '83. "It really was difficult to plan 30 minutes of amusement for 900 restless students." Pep Club also had problems boosting school spirit. Decorated lockers, treats for athletes, and spirit posters were often missing from the football season. "We didn't have many members and no elected leader, so were were pretty much on our own," said Lisa Brandenburg '84. Although football season had its share of ups and downs, basketball season brought more dilemmas than most had expected. In the season's first ten days, porn pon girls and cheerleaders got a taste of the hectic schedule ahead as they were forced to wear uniforms on seven days, attend four games, and prepare for a pep assembly. "The porn pon girls had too many things to do in too little time. As the season progressed, we got too busy to keep our unity," said Kathy Kimball '83. Porn pon sponsor Cheryl Schmidt attempted to resolve the problem by suggesting the girls eat breakfast together each morning. "It made us realize we needed to spend time just to talk to one another. We all felt a little guilty that we hadn't before," said Teg Poffenbarger '85. Cheerleaders also felt that the hectic schedule was more than they could handle.

When it happens four days in a row, I just stop myself and take a day off!" said Charris Ocken '85. Even though basketball squads seemed burnt out by season's end, wrestling and volleyball squads ended their seasons feeling sad that the good times they had shared were over. Volleyball season gave the newly formed squad of six girls a chance to bu ild friendships among themselves· as well as spirit for the team.

"Sure we had troubles, but since we all cared for each other, we experienced few problems." Besides cheering and traveling to and from matches, wrestling cheerleaders held weekly donut and candy sales to pay for the State Tournament trip . With each girl paying $50 out of her own pocket, the squad found itself with just enough money to cover the $540 hotel bill.

But despite the nervousness the angry breezes had stirred, most band members felt they had tried their best during State Marching Contest at Audubon. After their performance, the 52 musicians and 23 flag and rifle girls stood rigid, awaiting their rating. Tension was suddenly relieved as the announcer said, "Abraham Lincoln, Division 1!"

"I received enough hugs that day to last me a lifetime, or at least until next year!" In addition to their 1 rating, the Lynx earned 195 points out of 200 in music execution, the highest score of the 32 bands in competition. Due to the widely publicized unsatisfactory teacher evaluation given to Misner by Principal James Gaffney the previous spring, band members made extra efforts for a successful year. "When the bad evaluation was given to Mr. Misner, it affected not only him, but the band as well," said John Johannes '83. "It made us feel bad and insulted, so we tried harder than ever to gain recognition." To perfect their maneuvers, for example, rifle girls practiced 11 hours a week and initiated a demerit system that members took seriously. "We knew that if we didn't go to practices, we'd get kicked off the team," said Monica Stover '85, "so everyone always went." But to accomplish all their goals, band members had to tackle many problems, not the least of which was a rainy week and field of gooey mud during rehearsals before contest. " It was like quick sand. Everytime we took a step, our shoes would get stuck," said Linda Thiel '84. FLAG TEAM. FRONT ROW: Ruth Tijerina, Linda Thiel, Kim Hol· linger, Pam Hansen.

"It's too bad for Mr. Misner as well as the rest of the band," said Mike Montgomery '84, "because having fewer people prohibited us from doing some more challenging pieces of music." But band members tried to make up for these limitations. Pep band members, for instance, learned twice as much music for the '83 season to give their performances added variety. Since the group's primary goal was to get the audience more involved, members moved from the balcony to the game floor. " Being closer really helps," said Teri Wilson '84. " It feels like we're part of the action, and I think that gets the audience more excited! " Like the band, the orchestra found that its enrollment slipped terribly under the new schedule, yet the 12-member group found a few advantages in its small size. " My minor in college will be the violin, and since the orchestra is smaller this year, the extra individual attention is a great help," said Kim King '83.

Although the stage band's enrollment remained the same, the group was hurt by the new schedule, which forced members to meet only on alternate days. "Meeting only three days a week was tough because we had to put in extra practice time," said Debbie Arrick '83. "But in the end, we put together a fine show for our trip to Conception." The trip to Missouri, stage band's biggest event, provided members with memories. "The neatest thing about Conception Abbey is the monks! They always give us a warm reception and make all of us feel important," said Alyce Spoto '84. "Once I'm there, I don't want to leave!" Good times and learning experiences came easily for band members and their support teams. "Being in band wasn't just fun and games, but a lot of hard work," said Scott Rathman '83.

M uscles tensed and hearts beat rapidly as several hundred music students sat on the bleachers of the Red Oak High School gym, awaiting the results of their All-State Chorus auditions. As the minute hand on the clock neared 4:30, two girls entered the gym carrying sheets of white and yellow paper containing the names of those chosen. As the girls taped the lists to Holding a high note all yeat long Choirs excel to win awards and rank superior the wall, singers scurried in clusters to the gym floor where all eyes focused on the long awaited results. "I made it!" screamed Tom Wyatt '84. "Oh my gosh! So did I!" gasped Troy Kinney '84. "Hey, Shelly, so did you! " "I have to see this for myself!" insisted Shelly White '83, who charged through the crowd to peer closely at her name. AL students jumped up and .down, cried, and hugged one another, for on this day, 14 of them had become members of the 1982 All-State Chorus. " I couldn't believe it! " said Sheryl Cory '83. "I was so excited that I was hugging everyone in sight, even people I didn't know! " Lee Spann, vocal music instructor, said this was the greatest number of accepted All-State members since 1968. With such a super start to their year, choir members were inspired to set goals and excel.

"I felt disappointed that we got second place, but I was also happy," said Shelley Kenkel '83. " Everyone wanted first, and we really worked for it, but receiving second was an honor since we didn't even place last year." Awards didn't come easily to choir members. Early morning rehearsals starting at 7 a .m. on school days and 8 a.m. on Saturdays were necessary to practice for Small Group Contest. Long hours finally paid off as students brought home 21 superior ratings, 22 excellent ratings, and 2 good ratings. " For the past two years, we have tried hard to get a superior rating. We've come close before, but this year, we did it!" said Vicki Witham '83, a member of Softones, a triple trio of senior girls. Yet competition was not the only reason ensembles formed . Since the Softones were graduating, a new triple trio of sophomore girls called the Entertainers was selected at semester to perform at programs throughout the rest of the year. " It's a neat feeling knowing you're picked to be in a special group separate from the choir," said Julie Royer '85. Sparked by their eagerness to perform, four sophomore boys formed a barbershop quartet. "We try to make our performance unique and memorable," said Paul Allen '85. " By writing our own songs, we add originality to our show." To end the year on a high note, the choir spent an enjoyable weekend at Worlds of Fun, where they competed for the last time in the park's Festival of Choirs. Chilled by the 50 degree weather, the singers huddled together as they rehearsed their music one last time with a pitch pipe instead of a piano. ' Even under these conditions, the vocalists pulled together and earned yet another Division I rating. "No matter how the performance went, the important thing is that the choir tried to do its best," said Lonny Watson '83. SOFTONES.

W hether slaving in a sweltering kitchen for nine hours at a time or talking on the airwaves to fellow students a thousand miles away, academic clubs tried to fight off strong apathy. Overall, membership of academic clubs dropped from 64 the previous year to 55. "The kids want to be in clubs, but they don't have the time to do things for them, " said Tom Lara, Spanish Club sponsor. Students' involvement in other activities seemed to hinder academic clubs most. " I'm in choir, and all Math and Computer Club's events are scheduled at the same time. I would like to do more for the club, but music is my top priority," said Mark Ryerson '83. Creighton Math Days, held J an. 29, proved to be the major activity of Math and Computer Club. Although members spent time preparing for their special events, no one came away victorious. " I worked 100 hours on my COMPUTER FUN.

I was really disappointed by the judging because they didn't follow the instructions given to us," said Chris Johansen '83. Apathy also affected the Science Club. According to president Cory Secular '83, only one or two members showed up at several meetings. "We were just missing enthusiasm," Secular said. Lack of interest foiled many of the club's plans. " We did have a donut sale, but we planned many more fundraisers that we never held," said Vicki Witham '83. " We were going to go to Des Moines, but we had to cancel. " Despite these difficulties, sever a I clubs made accomplishments. for four weeks, German Club members lugged boxes of traditional German candy around, each hoping to sell $20 worth needed for the trip to the Amana Colonies. Although the group had no trouble selling $ 1400 worth, they had problems finding the candy to sell. "The company we usually get the candy from closed, so we went all over Omaha following up on all the stores that sell Gummie Bears. We were just about to give up hope when Mrs. Rodriguez received a letter from a company saying they would take our order," said Gayle Swartz '83. The Home Economics Club baked its way to the Amana Colonies. Mixing, baking, and decorating Valentine cookies carrying special " I love" messages netted the group $ 150.50, enough for the 14 members to reach their destination. A trip to Worlds of fun provided the motivation needed for the Spanish Club, whose profit makers were candy and special message sales for St. Patrick's Day. "Since we raised over $200 to pay for our trip to Kansas City, we didn't have to pay anything out of our own pockets," said Jacque Hyde '84. Although the Electronics Club did not take any road trips, members got away through the air waves. An amateur radio was set up, and the boys talked to people as far away as Connecticut. "They kept trying to get the antenna up and couldn't, so they had me throw a line with the antenna up in a tree because Mr. Boylan said I was the pitcher of the group," said Chuck Page '83.

" Sometimes I wrote so much I thought my hand would fall off! " said Carolyn Andersen '84, " but when I was done, I felt like I had accomplished something! " Everyone in earshot knew the staff had accomplished something when squeals of excitement echoed through the halls after edi· tors learned their '82 book was named one of the top five in the nation. "Mrs. Smoley told us over the intercom that we had won the Pacemaker award , and we all freaked-out! We went racing down the halls screaming, 'Pace· maker, Pacemaker! " said Jill Krabbe '83. Just a week earlier, the staff was notified that the '82 book had won the Gold Crown award. Although newspaper staffers were happy about the yearbook 's honors, a kind of sadness hovered over them. "I could tell they felt inadequate because they hadn 't received such prestigious awards," said Mrs. Linda Smoley, adviser. Little did the newspaper staff know that soon they would win nearly every writing award given at J-Day, go on to capture the title of Best Newspaper in the metro area, and earn two state sweep· stakes trophies. " When the time came to an· nounce the winner, we sat on the edge of our chair with fingers crossed, eyes closed, and breath held . We just about died when they announced Echoes as Best Ne wspaper! " Gilbert said. Thoughtfulness towards each other brought staffers as much pl e asure and excitement as awards did .

" On one of the final deadline nights, Mrs. Smoley gave each senior a personalized graduation card. After several seniors fi n· ished reading theirs, their eyes looked slowly around the room at people who had become so much more than co-staffers, and tears shone brightly in their eyes.

Yet, the discouraged group held membership drives at the junior highs to encourage upcoming sophomores. " I think the membership drives will have the greatest effect on new sophomores," said Lois Heidenescher '83 . " We gained only five members from current sophs and juniors." When members were not busy trying to recruit new faces, they helped local Kiwanis Clubs with fundraisers, attended weekly meetings, organized money-makers, and took part in conventions. In November, Key Club sponsored an all-night skate-a-thon for Multiple Sclerosis, involving 100 high school , junior high , and grade school students from all over Council Bluffs. "Working with Kiwanis, we raised $735," said Toni Steward '85. " I had fun planning it because I knew the money was going toward a good cause. " With help from Kiwanis, four girls attended the district convention in Omaha , with students from Kansas, Nebraska , and Iowa. INSTRUCTIONS from sponsor Mary Gepner are an important part of preparing Courtesy Club members Kris Bottrell, Pam Hansen, Ronda Bargenquast, Julie Wagman, and Amy Petersen to welcome guests for spring musical. " We elected officers for our district and attended seminars which taught us more about Key Club. Meeting kids from other schools was really neat for me because it was all a new experience, " said Robyn Castillo '85. While Key Club was trying to recruit new members, Courtesy Club and National Honor Society waited to see who would be recommended and finally selected as members of their groups. To raise money for its induction ceremony, NHS sponsored a computer matchup. The club's only money-maker raised $200. After the 20 juniors and 16 seniors were inducted, a reception was held. "The induction was really special and meant a great deal to me ," said Paulette Leu '84. Courtesy Club served as hostesses for open house , vocal and instrumental performances, the play, musical, graduation , and baccalaureate.

Pay attention. I have some dittos to pass out. Everyone take one, and I'll explain them," he said. As they passed out the sheets, veteran members wondered curiously about such organization. They were expecting last year's shouting and confusion. On the ditto was an outline of things to be done for Homecoming Week and the names of those in charge of each activity. According to Ballenger, this list was just the beginning of what he wanted to accomplish. "I had three goals: to work closely with the administration, to involve the student body, and to keep our account out of the red," he said. ''I'm proud that we Ce1 fin' ahiolufely mofivafed Student Council gets organized for active year; Foreign Club slows to gain outside involvement ended our year with almost $1000 in our account." Having such a surplus of money presented the pleasant-problem of deciding how to spend the money before the end of the year so it wouldn't be used for the general fund . "Jeff came to a meeting with about five ideas for things to buy for the school," said Shelley Kenkel '83, secretary. "We voted on a clock for the student lounge and a directory for the front hall because we figured most people would benefit from these items." Many members felt that Student Council sponsored more activities and was more organized than the previous year. "Everyone in Student Council was there because they wanted to be," said Kim Heater '83.

Members also decorated for the holidays, helped Foreign Student Club with the Christmas Dance, sponsored the Christmas movie and Bloodmobile, and planned to enter a float in the Pride Parade. While Student Council was getting fired up, the Foreign Student Club was laying back. The club sponsored only two activities. To introduce exchange students to our American holiday, members prepared traditional Thanksgiving dishes and a turkey at the home of Gayle Swartz '83. "The dinner was really neat because we don't have anything like it in Norway," said Grete Mathisrud '83. "Even though we had studied it, it was different to be a part of it. " OFFERING THE LATEST tidbit in gossip, publications photographer Tanya Davis talks to Barb Jensen, exchange student from Denmark, at a swim meet. Jensen lived with Davis while in America. The club also blew up 720 balloons and hung 2000 feet of crepe paper from ceilings and walls to make Christmas Dance one of the best. " All the kids really pitched in ," said Don Whyte, sponsor. "This dance was the best we've had here in a long time. " Although the club sponsored only two activities, Swartz felt members were better off to be less active. "The purpose of the club is to get the exchange students involved; therefore, those in the club are active in extracurricular things, " she said. "If the club always had something planned, no one would have a chance to be in other things. " Although they went about it differently, Student Council and Foreign Student Club members felt they accomplished goals set at the beginning of the year. 125 ''M om, I need a $10 band uniform deposit by tomorrow, plus $11 for my choir shirt and $60 for new track shoes.

A survey of 50 students showed that 31 participated in two or more clubs or activities, and 1 7 of those polled spent between $200 and $400 on gas, food , summer camps, and uniforms. " I spent close to $400 this year on cheerleading," said Lori Nichols '83. "My uniform and accessories alone cost $200, and the rest went towards carny, gas, and decorations.'' Much of the money spent by cheerleaders, publications staffers, and other groups went to126 special feature 8u9f in' gout bank fo belong Students pay big bucks to participate in clubs wards odds and ends many people took for granted. " People don 't realize how much money we spend on posters, streamers, and paint for decorations," said cheerleader Marcy Fulfer '83. " That money comes out of our pockets, not the cheerleaders' fund ." Yet, most of these students realized the only return they would get for their money was personal satisfaction. "The $80 I've spent on gas to go to the printer could be taken out of the newspaper fund , but we'd rather have the extra pages and occasional spot color in the paper," said Becky Gilbert '83, Echoes editor. Some students found participating in sports could also be a major expense. With special shoes, camps, and gas, some athletes ended up paying almost TO SHIELD HERSELF FROM THE WINTER WIND.

Swing choir, concert choir, and band also took a bite out of many pocketbooks. Swing choir boys put out close to $ 7 5 for matching suits and shoes. As the expense of participating rose, so did the question of whether participants should have to pay the $15 activity ticket fee . Although it wasn't stated in the student handbook that cheerleaders, athletes, porn pon girls, and band members were required to purchase activity tickets, for years these groups had been encouraged to purchase tickets each fall, and many of these students believed they were required to do so to participate . Twenty-nine of 50 students polled felt that these groups shouldn't have to pay to partici· pate. " Athletes, porn pon girls, and cheerleaders perform for the audience," said Jayne Nelson '84. "They shouldn't have to pay to represent their school. " Mike Messerli, activities director, pointed out however that the school made just $6500 on activity tickets in 1983, compared to $8300 the previous year. " We spent $1000 on football jerseys, and $900 went to the Echoes, so you can see how fast the money goes," Messerli said. He said that if the athletic and spirit groups didn't buy tickets, the school would have to resort to a participation fee of $15 for each activity participated in. Despite their occasional complaints, most involved students said they would pay the cost of participating all over again.

Within an hour, she was found dead on the bathroom floor. As news reports from Sept. 29 to Oct. 1 told us that poisoned Tylenol had taken seven Chicago lives, we found it hard to believe that someone had randomly selected Tylenol bottles from the shelves of Chicago stores and carefully filled capsules with deadly cyanide. "I lost a lot of trust in people," said Becky Gilbert '83. " I can't understand how anyone could kill people he didn't know or have anything against." As we liste ned to reports about the Tylenol slayings, we were struck by the irony of it all. Tylenol, the drug we had trusted as a safe and effective pain reliever, had suddenly become deadly to some who sought its relief. " [ was amazed," said Debbie Armstrong '85, " because people began not to trust anything they bought at the grocery store." As Tylenol products were removed from shelves across the country and Tylenol manufacturers computed their losses at over $75 million, a 105-member task force and 43 lab workers sifted through hundreds of clues. But by January, all the leads had falle n through, and police reported that chances of ever finding the murderer we re slim.

" It seems unfair to choose only four students for the production when it's called an all-school play, " said Becky Brown '84, who echoed the cry of many others. Director Patricia Rockwell defended her choice. "It's a good play. It's timeless, and it speaks to young people," she said. "I picked it for the quality of the script, not the size of the cast." Despite student complaints, cast members realized one advantage of having a small cast. " Mrs. Rockwell really gave us a lot more individual attention than we would have gotten if there had been a large cast," explained Susie Lara '83.

According to Coffin, this individual attention made the cast members professionals. And professionalism was what they needed to handle the rowdiness of the matinee audience . " I thought the audience was very rude. It didn't make me feel too good when I was on stage doing my best, and I got bombed with pennies, " Button said . "They want a funny play year after year. I guess they're not mature enough to handle a serious drama." Yet, some students appreciated the performance. " I really enjoyed the play ," said Shelly Moore '84. " I didn't expect it to be that good." Actors agreed the play was a great learning experience. Deal explained, " It was fun. I'm glad I was a part of it." FORGETTING LINES is not uncommon.

The officer approached the door, asked for the boy 's driver's license and asked the boy to get out of the car and breathe into the chemical test machine. Just as the boy expected, the officer said, " Son, your blood-alcohol level is .12; I'm going to have to arrest you on the charge of drunk driving ." What the boy didn't know was that an Iowa law in effect since July 1 had substantially toughened the drunk driving penalty. Under the new law, the arresting officer could get a warrant by phone to revoke a license for up to four months if the accused took a breath test and up to six months if a breath test was refused . " I feel the new law should make a person think twice before getting into a car drunk," said Julie Wagman '84. During the first three months the law was in effect, alcohol related accidents in Iowa decreased 4 7 percent and there were only 50 deaths, the lowest since 1962, according to the Department of Transportation. But despite the tougher law, 35 of 50 students polled said they would still drive after drinking. " Drinking and cruising Broadway is about the only excitement in this town," said one senior girl. Yet Iowa legislators were making it clear that drinking, driving, and getting caught is not an advisable mix.

The GOP lieutenant governor overcame his leading opponent, Democrat Roxanne Conlin, 53 percent to 46 percent to continue a 14-year Republican hold on the Iowa governorship. " I think it's great the Republicans are still in control. They've done well in the past, and I think they'll keep the economy in good condition this term," said Mark Ryerson '83. ,,. Yet, a Democrat, Robert Anderson, was elected lieutenant governor, and Democrats recaptured control of both the Iowa House and Senate, suggesting Branstad would have a hard time getting his proposals through the legislature . agreed upon , though, was a 1 percent increase in the state sales tax, which Branstad signed into law in January to take effect March 1. According to Mike Miller, city manager, under the new tax law, it was estimated that Council Bluffs businesses would contribute an additional $1.5 million to state revenues. David Christensen , former mayor and owner of Christy Creme, expressed concern that Council Bluffs would never benefit from the added revenue . " I resent all that money taking a one-way trip to Des Moines," Christensen said.

The night started when a silent alarm went off at the west branch of the first Federal Savings and Loan , and Dan Hiley, vice president, was called in to check. Upon arrival, Hiley smelled gas and called People's Natural Gas. He was told to leave the building and that someone would come to investigate. Meanwhile, Douglas Hale, an employee of People's Natural Gas, was getting ready to leave for St. Pat's Christmas Eve mass when he received a phone call to report to the bank . With Hiley and Hale inside , the bank exploded at 4:20 p .m., taking both men's lives. The explosio n leveled the bank and damaged the surrounding buildings of Burger King , Con Dru g, All-St ar Tire , and an apa rtme nt ho us e across the street. As the news fl ashed over radio and TV, students were shocked to learn that Hale was the father of Jason '83, and Scott '84 . While officials still looked for the bodies of Ha le and Hiley, the Dennis Scoular family of Cres136 our times cent headed for a grandparent's home in Council Bluffs. On his way to pick up a friend , Jack (Cory) Scoular '83 , had pulled out of the driveway moments before his family . But when he arrived at his grandparents' home, he realized something was wrong because his parents had not yet arrived . To find out what had happened, he got back into his car and drove along Interstate 29 north to Crescent until he came to a roadblock and was rerouted around the interstate . It wasn 't until his trip back to Council Bluffs that he saw what he thought was his family's car. When he stopped to gain information, officers told him that all victims had been taken to Mercy Hospital. At Mercy , a priest told him there had been no survivors of the terrible accident. Scoular learned that his family, including his parents JoAnna a nd Dennis, his two brothers Alan Troy and Dennis Lee , and Elizabeth Gayman, who lived with the family , had been killed when they were struck head-on at 7:40 p.m. by a car driven by Genevieve Johnson of Missouri Valley.

"It really made me think ," said Monica Nunez '83 . " On Christmas day, I said a prayer at the table and everyone there cried. This accident touched a lot of people ." The most difficult emotion many students faced was a sense of helplessness. " I sat with Jason for almost six hours the night of the explosion," said Jon Schlemmer ' 83 . " I didn't know what to say to him because he lost his mom due to cancer seven years ago and now he's lost his dad, and I still go home to mine every night. " Four days after his father's death , Jason played in the Metro Holiday Tournament against Milla rd South and went on to be leading scorer for that game and winner of the John Ke ndall award for his tournament play.

These included stricter tardy enfor cement, mandatory attendance on the day of participation in a school event, and tightening of early dismissals. The early dismissal policy caused the greatest controversy. Under the policy, a parent could call to check a student out, but the absence would probably be unexcused unless it was an emergency or doctor appointment. Some students felt as Connie O'Grady '83, did. "As long as a person doesn't abuse the privilege of checking out, a student should be able to," she said. But Vice Principal Paul Krogh explained his view. "A parent has a right to get his child out of school," Krogh said, "but we must question whether the reason is legitimate. Such things as babysitting aren't."

"Even though I'm a superintendent now, I still consider myself an educator," he said. After his arrival Feb. 1 from Atlantic, IA, Lepley visited each Council Bluffs school so that he could begin to set goals for the system. Lepley said he hoped he could encourage more interaction between the two high schools. "There is no way to make the two schools the same ," he said, " but I do feel no student should have to sacrifice because of the school he goes to." Lepley also said he was considering the creation of a decision-making counsel for each school, consisting of students, teachers, and parents who would meet with the principal regularly to decide such things as budgets and discipline. "I hope this will help build community-wide expectations of the school system," he said. WITH A WARM SMILE, Superintendent William Lepley talks with some Bloomer elementary students at lunch.

Even though Iowa's unemployment rate hovered around 9.5 percent, compared to nearly 11 percent nationwide, many students had feared that their parents would become unemployed during the two-year recession. For some families, the situation grew more tense in March wh en it wa s a nnounc ed th at Iowa 's unemployment insurance fund was bankrupt. But March brought hope that more jobs might be just around the corner as the national unemployment rate dropped to 10 percent from 10.3 in J anuary. " I hope it means more jobs because I want one this summer," said J odi Rhoten '85 . " I have noticed more help wanted ads." Another encouraging March statistic was a drop in inflation to 2 percent, as compared to 18 percent three years ago. Due to a corresponding drop in interest rates, key industries also began reporting growth in February. " People defi nitely have more confidence. The turn around is great," said Scott McMullen of McMullen Ford. " It's been a long struggle.

" It seemed cool, but I got really sunburned without realizing it," said Teri Hough '83. All we could do was hope that Mother Nature had finally settled down and realized it was springtime. But if we thought she had been nasty to us, all we had to do was look at the East Coast where she dumped 35 inches of snow and blew drifts up to nine feet high, or California, Louisiana, and Mississippi, where she caused floods, mudslides, and tornados. Hawkeye bids farewell W e were a generation that grew up with Hawkeye, B.J., Klinger, and Hotlips. Week after week for 11 years, we laughed with them, cried with them, and were astonished by them. " M•A•s •H was a great show," said Kelly Groce '85. "It was funny , but it also touched us with the real tragedy of the Korean War." A poll of 50 students showed that Hawkeye, played by Alan Alda, was the favorite character. " Hawkeye really had a lot of spunk," said Wendy Phillips '83. " He always had something smart M'A'S'H FAN.

The editors of Stern, a West German weekly magazine, announced on April 22 that they had found 62 volumes of the diaries and asked $3 million for the discovery. Approximately three weeks later, after examination of the glue, binding, and manuscripts themselves, experts found errors which would forever label the diaries a fraud. A 30 CENT ERROR caused 162 passengers and 10 crew members to sit through a living nightmare as a Trijet L-1011 from Miami came within moments of crashing into the ocean. Near tragedy came when three thumb-size rubber seals, called 0-rings, were inadvertantly left off the magnetized plugs on the oil lines. Seniors/ win honors A pproximately $6,000 changed hands May 5 , as 49 seniors endured the sweltering heat of the auditorium for the senior honors program. Trip Allen received the largest monetary award, the Peter Kiewit scholarship, which 1s worth $3500. Allen also received the Reverend Dr. Leon Corning Hills Award and the Dr. Ericksen-Hills Award. Susan Gaffney also received numerous awards and scholarships, including the World-Herald Scholarship, Elks Most Valuable Student Local Scholarship, Elks State Scholarship, D.A.R. Good Citizens Award, and the Iowa Society of Women Engineers' Award for excellence in science and mathematics. "The awards and scholarships made me ha ppy bec a use it meant my years of work ha ve been worthwhile," Gaffney said. "To me the awards mean more than the scholarship money; they mean people think a lot of you. " Along with these students, 29 others received anywhere from 142 our times one to four scholarships or awards, ranging in monetary value from a $50 savings bond to $1000 scholarships. Also presented that night was the Clio Award, given to the organization bringing the most recognition to the school. For the fourth straight year, the newspaper and yearbook staffs and Speech and De bate Club received the honor jointly. " I thought it was neat that yearbook and speech both won because I'm in both activities," said Amy Dugan. " I may be biased but besides football, I think they deserve it most because they've made a name for the school. " With the honors all presented, the 49 seniors and their parents left the heat of the auditorium with satisfaction.

Due to an evaluation he labeled unfair, Misner . spends year trying to make things right by ... Fighting the system I n a persistent push to set the record straight, Jim Misner, band instructor, spent much of the 1982-83 school year fighting an evaluation he felt was unfair. Written by Principal James Gaffney in the spring of 1982, the evaluation stated that Misner performed unsatisfactorily in knowledge of subject matter and organization. Due to this low evaluation, Gaffney placed Misner on a " growth plan," which called for improvements in specified areas. Jim Misner leads the drums in a cadence before the band plays "The Swing March." KEEPING THE TEMPO, Jim Misner directs at the winter Concert. " My professional competence has never been questioned ," Misner said. " I feel that with the record of achievement my students have, it is unfair not to acknowledge their success." Many students agreed the band's accomplishments were proof of Misner's competence. " During marching season, the band pulled together to beat the system that was trying to say we didn 't know our stuff," said Debbi Nielsen '83. "We did the right things at the right time . We proved his record_. ' ' Misner hoped to reach a compromise in which his evaluation would be scratched from his file although he would continue to follow the growth plan. After various unsuccessful meetings with Gaffney , members of the Council Bluffs Education Association (CBEA), and Raj Chopra, superintendent of schools at the time , Misner decided to file a grievance. But despite Misner's efforts, Chopra ruled that the evaluation had been completed properly, and since only the methods, not the content, of an evaluation could be grieved under the current teacher's contract, Misner was left unsatisfied. Misner then hired an attorney and filed another grievance against Gaffney , charging harassment. Since the grievances continued to go unresolved, the Iowa State Education Association (!SEA) stepped in to help the CBEA solve the Misner case. Although the next step in the grievance procedure, according to the master contract, was to bring in an impartial arbitrator, no arbitrator had been scheduled as of May 20. After his arrival on Feb. 1, Superintendent William Lepley held meetings with Misner; Gaffney ; Micheal O ' Brad ovi ch , Misner's attorney ; CBEA officials; and Joseph Scalzo, assistant superintendent. As of May 20, Misner planned to continue the fight against the evaluation, which remain ed a part of his record although discussions were continuing.

" It eve n helped me decide on a couple careers I might be interested in ." Although the fair was a success, many students fo und it hard to see all the professionals. " When we walked in the door, the first 15 or 20 minutes were spent talking to each other," said Kim Johnson '84. " By the time we got the nerve up to talk to the professionals, half the period was gone. " Yet , most stud e nts were pleased with the fa ir and hoped to see it next year. april I may 143 MflY Rain tries to keep citizens from showing pride, but successful parade proves nothing can zap ... F ire truck sirens blared , bands tooted, horses trotted, and candy flew even though an overcast sky threatened rain. Out of the 111 entries that paraded down Main Street on that rainy morning for the fifth annual pride celebration, only two belonged to AL. One of those was the Marching Band , which joined with Tee Jay and Lewis Central to form one large band. " I thought it was really neat to see the bands pull together and try to do our best," said Valarie Witham '83. Student Council members and cheerleaders also participated by making and riding on a float shaped like a huge oper-r yearbook with names of AL organizations written on the pages.

Mike Lee '83, was honored for winning the 10,000 meter run, and juniors Valerie Gates, Karen Dunsdon, Jean O'Grady and Kelly Reilly e ach re ceived a $50 savings bond for helping the elderly during the past year. " I was surprised to get it, because only five were chosen in the whole city," Reilly said. Before the parade, students participated in a week of pride activities. Starting Monday, May 9, they walked through the halls clad in sweats, Hawaiian shirts, and mini skirts, according to the code for the day. " Punk and preppy day was my favorite ," said Angie Simmons '83, " It was fun to dress wild." Then on Thursday, May 12, Dr. Ra j Chopra returned to Council Bluffs to ded icate a " Welcome to Council Bluffs " sculpture at Thirty-sixth and Broadway. Despite the drizzling rain , Chopra was greeted by enthusiastic students and officials proud that at last the city would be identified to visitors driving from the west. The 20-foot high sculpture in the shape of Iowa attached to an arch of railroad tracks was designed by Jeff Brown, a senior at Tee Jay, and built by welding students at the Career Center.

" I fill the oil and windshield wiper fluid to save money," said John Peak '83. " I don't want to pay anyone else to do something that I know I can do just as well. " Finding parts for his Rambler wasn 't easy either. Nelson had to contact a shop in Chicago just for the right size front shocks. Even girls learned how to pump their own gas and check the oil regularly to save money. ''I'm glad my dad teaches me how to do things when something goes wrong," said Marie Miller '84. " He showed me how to hook up battery cables and how to check the brake fluid in my 1965 Dodge Dart convertible." " I bought the car for $100 to use for some parts, and I've saved quite a bit of money because of it," Nelson said. After saving on the necessities, Nelson splurged and bought a 150-tune musical horn and an electrical antennae. To pay for these extras, Nelson had to work full time at Village Inn as a cook in addition to going to school. Other girls had little idea how to check the oil or other fluids, but they tried anyway. " I wasn't sure where to put the oil," said Patty Mauer '83, "so I just found a hole that looked good and dumped it in ."

"My car might not be brand new, but it's original and fun , and best of all, it's mine, " said Monica Nunez '83. Some seniors even felt their cars and trucks helped them express their moods. " If I'm tensed up or mad, I like to drive my truck because it has a bad exhaust pipe and it's really loud, so it gives me a feeling of power," said Stuart Crum '83. For others, driving their car provided feelings of pride. " I feel proud when I drive my jeep, and it's especially fun to drive with the top off in the summer," said Lori Connor '83.

No one ever loses anything from doing it," said Kim Heater '83. In the same poll, 74 percent of the students said they had applied to three or more colleges.

"I've applied for three colleges, and I've spent $120 on applica· tion fees. It seems like a lot of money, but when I think of how it is helping me with my future plans, it seems well worth spending," said Gayle Swartz '83. Most college-bounders found that the time they spent planning for their future was just as essential as the money. "I spent an hour and a half filling out two scholarship forms because I wanted to do them correctly," said Mike Brunow '83. Visiting colleges to help make the final decision took the most time of any college preparation. " I realized how different high school is from college when I observed a class at Lincoln.

BLUSHING BRIDE TO BE, Pam Butcher tries on a wedding dress at Cyndi's. eddi11g bell Newlyweds cope with problems to make life together a success S tarry eyed, Pam Butcher '83, stood facing her reflection. Could this be the girl who just a few weeks ago had thought the most important priority in her life was getting her assignments in on time? Now, she peered through her veil and saw ruffles of lace cascading from her dress. She knew that in the months to follow, her life would take a completely new direction. Butcher had planned for nearly five months for her wedding, which would take place just three days after graduation. " It's really hectic, but we're ready to take this step and get married. Since Jeff was in the Marines, we were separated for about eight months," Butcher said. "In that time, I realized I had no desire to go out with anyone else. I think the time apart helped us grow up a little. We realize it will be hard, but we'll make it!" Months and months of tedious planning for the big day were just part of what lay in store for couples deciding to marry. Money also played a big factor. " It's kind of insane to pay over $200 for a dress you'll wear only once ," said Heidi Finerty '83. " But once you look in the three-way mirror and see yourself in that dress, it's all worthwhile! " Money continued to be a major hinderance after the actual wedding date. Many couples spent long nights balancing a budget and cutting corners to make each dollar count. " Paying bills is a real switch!" said Julie Webster McCabe '83. "That was Mom's job! " Although it was hard for couples to make financial adjustments, being married while still in high school was an greater adjustment. "It's really hard to get motivated to go to school in the morning, I think maybe I should stay home and clean the house," said Cindy McElroy Joneson '83. "It's also hard to get homework done with so many other priorities waiting to be done. I think if I had it to do over again, I'd wait until just after graduation, because when you're married during high school you have no time to get involved in any activities and therefore miss out on a lot. " Although statistics stated young marrieds experienced a higher rate of divorce, couples at AL claimed they were more than statistics and could make their marriages work. " I didn 't plan on getting married during my senior year, but I never said I wouldn't," said Scott B. Smith '83. " I don't plan on ever getting a divorce, and. I know we can make it work! " Jeannette Lewis Johnson '83, agreed. " I think it depends on the couple and their relationship and how hard they wDrk to make it last! " she said. The 1982-83 school year saw six couples married, and although they agreed marriage was a big step to take, they were confident their marriages would last.

Although Stebbins wanted to major in computer science, she admitted using her brother's computer most often to play games. " When my mom and I have time, we like to compete and play Snake Bite, Pac Man, and Serpentine," Stebbins said.

"I started the robot as a hobby, but eventually I would like to advance its mechanics so that I can market it," he said . Wyant said the robot stood three feet tall, was made of metal and wood, and moved by FM signals sent out by remote control. "Right now I'm working on the arms, and hopefully by this summer, I will have most of it done so that it can walk and pick things up," he said.

Occasionally as she wandered past, gossip would float to her ears, making it seem like she too was sharing the latest news. Then suddenly she felt as if everyone knew how alone she really felt. Many times, when students saw loneliness creep into their lives or a friend 's, they realized it was something everyone felt and that it was hard to cure. "Seeing someone who's constantly alone makes me feel terrible!" said Susan Gaffney '83. " I wish I knew how to make the awful feelings of loneliness go away." Being a new student brought about a kind of loneliness that a few people had to suffer. One girl who came to AL from New Jersey told of her feelings. " I really felt a lone at first when I saw bunches of friends having fun together," said Barb Ruff '83. "It made me remember the times I used to have. I wanted to have fun , but at the time I hardly knew anyone." Losing a friend because of a change in schools or a serious disagreement also brought feelings of solitude and emptin~ss. "I never thought about how much I needed my friend until she started hanging around with someune else," said Lori Hill '83. " It made me realize how alone I felt without her. " The most acute feelings of loneliness often followed a breakup with a girlfriend or boyfriend. Just seeing other couples together reminded most students of that special someone and made them want to be near that person again. Whether students knew when an attack of the " lonelys" was about to hit or they were surprised to find themselves feeling alone, most admitted that loneliness was a painful part of life that had to be accepted.

Or if you were a little girl, you used to think, "When I'm older I'm going to be a nurse and cure everyone's illnesses." Although such dreams weren't very practical, even seniors continued to enjoy fantasizing about what they might be doing in a decade or so. "This summer, I'm going to New York to train as a model, " said Rhonda Smith '83. " My fantasy is to be a glamorous model on the cover of Vogue magazine. " Like Smith, Grete Mathisrud '83, also found a career in fashion and design appealing. " I've always idolized the famous Norwegian fashion designer, Per Spook, and someday I would like to design clothes that would set trends across the nation, " Mathisrud said.

Larry Punteney '83, took his chances trying out for the "super mouth" position on local radio station Sweet 98. Punteney said, " If I make super mouth , it would be a big break in my career, for my ultimate goal is to be an anchorman on a television news station. " While some people had big dreams about the future, most were down to earth about where they wanted to be ten years from now. "I plan on having a house, being married to Deanna, and having a good job as a CPA. If none of that works out, I'll become a pro fisherman," said Joe Diblasi '83. Although most seniors said they had dreams about being rich , they admitted that having a family would be more important to them. "Money won't last forever and can't buy a person happiness," said Bryan Smith '83.

Armed with streamers, airplane glue, tape, and their precious poster filled with shiny new pennies in the shape of an 83, the pranksters started decorating the upper hallway. After they were finished with their handiwork , the ramp was covered with two huge posters reading, "Beer is great; sex is free. We're the class of 83! " can say, 'I made it!' " Other " dirty deeds" took place too. Late in the evening of May 16, eight more girls met and walked to AL with twelve rolls of toilet pa per and a can of shaving cream. As six of the vandals proceeded to teepee trees, light poles, and the lawn, the other two sprayed " 83" and " Senior Power" on the front windows with the shaving cream. " We had a blast teepeeing," said Ruth Tijerina '83. "I was among friends doing something totally wild and crazy." The typical water balloons were thrown and M-80's lighted, too. Although no one was hit, seniors Joe Diblasi and Alan Arrick got inhouse detention for throwing water balloons from above the student lounge and the ramps. "I didn't even plan the attack, but I was the one who got caught! " said Diblasi. " First I had to mop up the water, and then I had to go to in-house. " Yet another less publicized prank was pulled when two senior boys sneaked into the girls' restrooms and stretched plastic wrap over the tops of the toilet seats. " We thought it would be fun to see someone after she had tried to use one of those toilets, " said Bryan Whitfield '83. Whether the pranks were funny or not, Don Scheibeler, Latin instructor, summed up the situation at commencement practice on May 18 when he said, " Although your pranks are funn y and creative, they better stop now, or when your parents come for graduation, they're going to think you're graduating from an outhouse!

The main reason most of these students graduated in January was that they wanted to get started building a career. "Right now, I'm working part time at American Agrisurance. Therefore, I want to get out of school so that I can work full time and establish a regular job there," said Robin Steenrod '83. Others, though, like Kim Devereaux '83, planned to continue their education after high school. " I want to keep on working at Hy-Vee so that I can save a little money before going into advertising at IWCC in March," she said. But most students expressed mixed emotions about graduating. " I might regret it later on because I will miss seeing familiar faces every day," said Georgia Plumb '83.

Beverly McCumber, office secre tary, said, "One idea behind raising the requirements was to force students into three full years of high school. " Many students felt that attending school for three years was not a bad idea. " I figure why start working earlier than necessary because after graduation, we will all probably work for the next 40 years of our lives," said Paul Rounds '83. Some students even changed their plans when they realized that their senior year was going by so quickly. "I decided I was in no hurry to get out of school, especially with jobs so hard to find right now," said Kim King '83. "It would also be easier to get a scholarship if I attended school through May."

We became addicted to non-nutritious, calorieadding food like candy bars, Doritos, pizza, pop, doughnuts, and french fries. We were truly junk food junkies. In our quest for the ultimate fix , we searched out our favorite suppliers. In a poll of 50 juniors, 34 said pizza was their favorite junk food and Godfather's their favorite restaurant. " I like Godfather's because they pile on the ingredients until it's really thick and chewy, " said Kelly Cihacek '84. Although pizza ranked highest on our list of favorites, students said they were always willing to settle for a burger at Burger King. " I like to cruise Broadway and the best place to eat and see people is at Burger King," said Mindy Mowery '84. Even at school, we consumed unbelievable amounts. A quick check with the vending machine companies showed that 992 of us consumed 342 candy bars and 200 cans of pop every day, totaling 3 ,000 calories. While vending machines satisfied our hunger pangs at school, we went home for the ha rd stuff. " As soon as I get home, I break out the potato chips, " said Teresa Brockelsby '84.

HEAVENLY FU Youth groups find fellowship, God T o some people, church was a place to catch a few extra "Z'"s, but to students in youth groups, it was a place to meet new friends, have fun, find peace, and learn about God. According to members, youth groups attended camps, concerts, baseball games, golf matches, Worlds of Fun trips, and much more. A lot of these activities brought friends closer and provided opportunities to meet new ones. " Belonging to a youth group helped me get to know my friends in a different way," said Lisa Smith '84. " We seemed to be more open with each other and we're closer because of it." A poll of 50 juniors showed that 21 belonged to church youth groups. "It is important because it involves you with others in a friendly atmosphere while worshipping and learning about God," said Julie Johnson '84. Some students said having God close to them provided an anchor for their lives. "When I can't rely on friends for help, I know God is always there," said Pam May '84.

IN A BATTLE OF CONCENTRATION, Danny McGee and his little brother Jason spend a quiet afternoon playing chess. 17 6 juniors Leth-Ronnfeldt Younger siblings loved and loathed 0 n a typical evening, Tammy Sward '84, was stuck babysitting her 5- year old brother Walter. As she relaxed in front of the TV, she was disturbed by a loud crash. She sprung up and darted into the kitchen to find pieces of her mom's fav or· ite canister strewn on the fl oor. " Walter, I'm going to kill you! Just wait until mom gets home ," she screamed. " I only wanted a cookie ," Walte r whimpered. Tammy looked into his sad eyes beginning to fill with tears, and she softened. Like Swa rd , many students who had younger siblings had to suffer through babysitting and borrowed belongings. Yet, in a poll of 100 students, 67 said the most irritating habits of siblings were to invade privacy and cause embarrassment. " On my first date , my mother drove us to the movies. My sister rode along, staring and laughing at us the whole way . It was a total disaster! " said Jayne Ne lson '84 . Although students found brothe rs and sis· te rs to be little brats, most agreed siblings also had the ir good points. " It's sweet when my sister kiss es me goodnight. It makes up for the rotten things she does," said Molly Wa lden '84 . Be ing admired by siblings provided warm feeli ngs. " When my sister was fighting with a fri end , she came to me for advice. It made me feel good to know that I am a fri end and a brothe r," said Chris Huelshorst '84. Other students agreed that they loved being looked up to . " When I had a pa pe r route , my sister would get up at 6:30 just to help me," said Jenny Bowlds '84. Although younger siblings could drive a pe rson insa ne , the treasured memories of tender kisses, warm hugs, and trusting eyes made students realize they couldn 't live without those little sweethearts.

Garfield was well known for sudden urges. Often he would stroll into his room, freeze , make a diving leap for his bed, and yell, " Nap Attack! " " People like the way he does things without notice, " said Brenda Barger '84. His joy in life was his dog-friend Odie . Garfield loved to hate him. Nothing could give more pleasure to life than kicking a half-wit dog across the room, he said. Besides personality, Garfield had few assets. He could hardly be called good looking. His oversized eyes made his head look disproportionate, and how he kept that overstuffed body upright was a mystery. "I think he's ugly," said Carolyn Andersen '84, " but the things he does are so neat you can't help but like him. " Garfield wasn't concerned about his looks. He enjoyed being fat and tried to make oth· ers feel the same . A common saying was, ''I'm not overweight, I'm under tall." " He over eats just like I do every night," said Eric Coleman '84, " and he makes you feel good about over eating." But perhaps Garfield's lazy lifestyle accounted most for his popularity. People found themselves wanting to live by his motto, " Eating and sleeping. Is that all there is to life? I certainly hope so!" He ruined several cat stereotypes. To him mice was a cuss word , and chasing the creatures was a waste of energy. " I think it 's hilarious that Garfield won 't chase mice," said Linda Thiel '84, "because my cat won't either." But despite Garfield's faults, students continued to love him and plaster his likeness on everything from T-shirts to notebooks. Garfield's sarcastic outlook on life can even make tragedies seem humorous. - Marie Miller '84 Darrin Rooney Jackie Rowland Todd Russell Tina Saar Andrea Sasso Scott Schamel Mike Schlott Megan Schmoll Julie Schutt Troy Scoular Lisa Seaman LeAnn Shanno Christina Sharp Leslie Sharp Mike Shea Denise Shenefelt Kevin Shew Charles Shrader Charise Smith Kevin Smith Lisa Smith Marsha Smith Paul Smith Rod Smith Brad .Snipes Sheri Sorrells Alyce Spoto Tammy Steenbock Trevor Stichter Paul Stites Amy Stogdill Joe Stom 17 8 juniors Rooney-Zahn OUT ON THE TOWN.

Hey Susan, what's the answer for number six?" I won't tell you until you give me the answer to number four. " Secretive conversations, cheat sheets, and copied assignments were common on test days, silent work days, and any time students didn't take time to complete their assignments. A poll of 100 sophomores showed that 69 che ated. Students who cheated admitted the major reason was inadequate studying. "The only reason I cheat is that I've come to class without studying, and I want to do well," said one sophomore girl. Students who didn't cheat said they resented the ir classmates who did. " It upsets me when people cheat because it can affect the grading system," said Maureen Edwards '85. " I work hard for my grades, and it's irritating when the person next to you cheats and gets a better grade ." Most students agreed that cheating was getting more difficult. "It is hard to successfully cheat," said a sophomore boy. " Teachers are really cracking down." Teachers took special steps to prevent cheating on tests. Biology teacher Joe Hauser and math instructor Anina Madsen, for example, passed out several versions of each test. " A teacher knows who the cheaters are," said Cheryl Schmidt, English teacher. " If I do see someone cheating, I generally just have to give them a stern look." Non-cheaters appreciated such teachers' tactics. " It's hard to say no to a person who wants an answer," said a sophomore girl. " If a teacher rea lly watches for cheating, it takes a lot of pressure off me." Thirty-four of the 100 students surveyed said they felt guilty about cheating. " I fe el guilty because I know I'm not learning anything," said a sophomore girl. Cheating is unfair because it's someome else's grade, not your own. - Laura Gordon '85 Karen Beaver Gwen Belt Kevin Belt Amy Be nnett Linda Be nton Peggy Boardman Jackie Boot on Julie Borwick Penny Bostine los Jeff Bowen Be v Bracker Rod Brandenburg Jeff Brindisi Sean Brown Diane Bruner Kim Brunow Travis Buckles Jason Carrier Robyn Ca stillo Chris Christensen Eric Christense n Lori Christiansen Lori Christiansen Wendi Cihacek Sherry Coble Carla Coenen George Connor Joan Cosgriff cheating 181 SPACING OF ____ _ Sophs tell why they enjoy daydreaming m t's Monday morning; you're sitting in first hour, and all you can think about is the past weekend. Your eyes sparkle and a smile brushes across your face . You're lost in a world of daydreams - until suddenly a voice interrupts. " Jon, would you please join the rest of us? " In a poll of 60 sophomores, all agreed that school was their number one place for daydreaming. "I daydream in school because I'm usually thinking of things more exciting than what the teachers are saying," said Karen Stone '85. Weekends provided one of those more exciting things. "I like thinking about what my boyfriend and I are going to do Saturday night, especially as it gets closer," said Stephanie Gray '85 . A 1981 study in Time showed that daydreaming, which consumes 30 to 40 percent of a human's waking hours, is good for us. Students agreed that spending their time in a world of daydreams was indeed beneficial, despite dirty looks from teachers. "When I daydream, I get a chance to look at myself and realize my bad points, and I think about ways of changing them, " said Terry Osborne '85. Some said daydreaming actually helped them solve problems. "If I've lost something, I spend the day thinking of where it could be , and what I can tell my mom, " said Helen Poulos '85. Others reported that daydreaming about upcoming events helped them visualize the way they wanted things to turn out. " Once I was planning a party, and the excitement made me .think about how I wanted it to go," said Diane Schoeppner '85. " It turned out even better than I had planned." So remember, the next time you catch yourself spacing off, it's not because you're bored in class, but because daydreaming is good for you. ''When I daydream, I always like to think about the having lots of money someday." -Tammy Tietsort'85.

With all these required courses, how do I fit the classes I want into seven periods?" Such feelings were often voiced by sophs as a result of the curriculum changes adopted in the spring '82, which dropped one period from the school day, added requirements for graduation, and required that incoming sophomores enroll in a three-year course of study. Added requirements included two semesters of both English and math and one semester of both science and government. The change forced members of the Class of '85 to cram two additional requirements into a day that was one period shorter. As a result, many sophs felt drastically limited in course selection. " I thought when I got in high school, there would be more freedom to choose the classes I wanted," said Michelle Mann '85. " Now, with all the required courses, I have neither the time or space to take electives. I really feel tied down and limited. " Most sophs said that they would have preferred the old schedule. " In an eight-period day, we could have choosen more electives. Now we just waste the last ten to fifte en minutes in the longer classes," said Stephanie Gilmore '85. Students also criticized the new sequence of study, which required ninth graders to select the general, college, business, or vocational track and then complete specified courses within the track. Many felt ninth grade was too early to make such decisions. " I don't see how the administration can expect a ninth grader to have the maturity to decide on a ce rtain track," said Jolene Schwartzkoph '85.

That's what PUSH (Prevention Under Student Help), a group of 37 sophs, did to keep younger students free of drugs. After being organized by former school board member Mike Winchester, the group got training in peer counseling at Operation Bridge in Omaha. Soon they were writing skits which they later performed and discussed on a one to one level with students in the fourth, fifth and sixth grades. "Our skits give kids ideas for handling situations with drugs and alcohol that they will later face, " said Diane Schoeppner '85. By November, the group had already accomplished several feats. First, each of the members received a letter from first lady Nancy Reagan complimenting them on their work. Next, members Bruce Schafer and Schoeppner argued before the city council in favor of the Ban the Bong Bill. Finally, the group traveled to Washington D.C. to speak before the National Drug Abuse Council. "It was great the way members of the audience praised our work and urged us on," said Chad Johnson '85. I hope someday kids will be so afraid of drugs that they will no longer use them. - Karen Stone '85 Jodi Rhoten Paul Rief Bill Rocha Cindy Ronk Mike Rosa Chris Rounds Julie Royer Troy Ruby Shawn Russell Dan Ryan Bruce Schafer Michelle Schlott Scott Schmoker Bill Schnitker Diane Schoeppner Sonja Schumacher Jole ne Schwarzkopf John Schwertley Nancy Sealock Kip Shanks Kathy Shanno Gale Shaw Troy Shew Paul Shoms hor Saman t ha Shrader Deann Smith Lori Smith Robin Smith Steve Smith Marcy Sparr John Spurgin Kim Stahlnecker Bob Stephens Terri Stevens Toni Steward 186 sophomores Rhoten-Young I ON A ONE TO ONE LEVEL, Diane Schoeppner discusses the harmful ef· fects of marijuana with Washington Elementary students Marlene Abel and Mary Stewart.

Messerli, is it okay if we have a donut sale for Speech and Debate Club on Monday, the 14th?" " Hey , Mike! Harlan just called and cancelled the girls' game for Saturday night. " " Mr. Messerli, I think it's a little ridiculous that we have to buy acti vity cards to wrestle ." Such was a day in the life of Mike Messerli , activities director. Bombarded by questions about everything from porn pan uniforms to Key Club parties, he knew an A.D.'s life was a nything but easy. In his second year as A.O. , Messerli was in charge of handling club activities and athletic events. Each A.O. in the Metro Conference was responsible for s~h duling a ll events for two or three different sports fo r all 20 schools in the conference. In 1982, Messerli , along with three other A.O. 's, was also in charge of the Boys' Metro Holiday Tournament. "We handled eve rything from concession stands to custodians to stat-keepers, " said Messerli. Responsibilities sometimes kept M~sserli at school more than 20 hours a week. " I try to attend every home game I can," Messerli said. " If there isn 't a home game, I go to the away games. It's hectic , but at least I try to eat di nner with my family ." Although a calendar a bove his desk he lped Messerli keep track of all extra-curricular activities, sometimes a conflict in scheduling couldn 't be helped . A sophomore basketball game, for example , was sched ul ed the same night as the Christmas Dance , and some of the sophomore cheerl eaders felt they shouldn't have to chee r. " This is something tha t happens only onc e a yea r," said Charris Ocken '85. " We shouldn 't have to rush to ge t ready a ft er chee ring and then go to the dance. " But Messerli , a long with sponsor Patti Ford , agreed that chee ring should come before social events, and the girls were required to chee r. Despite conflicts and compla ints, Messerli enj oyed orga nizing extra-curricular activities and seeing that students had a good time . " ] neve r rea liz ed it would be such tro uble," sa id Messerli , "but I enj oy every minute of itl " 188 staff gaffney-ford SUPERVISING AT THE NORTHWEST-AL MATCH, Mike Messerli checks up on injured Northwest wrestler John Nunez while Northwest coach Dick Markoff helps outSCHOOL BOARD - FRONT ROW.

Office Education Relations, COOP After a long days work, exercising mind and body helps teachers ... UNWIND " ild mannered math instructor Anina Madsen, perfectly coiffed and clad in a tailored skirt and starched blouse, clicked down the hall in her heels and disappeared into the women's restroom. In five minutes she came out transformed - her professional attire had been discarded for an old, faded , stretched out pair of pants and worn tennies. The 3:05 bell meant an end to the school day for most students, but for the teachers of Council Bluffs, 55 minutes dragged on before they could go home at 4 p.m. to unwind after their long day. Teachers found a variety of things to do. Along with eight or nine other female faculty members, Madsen spent a half hour exercising on days she didn't have to help students or do paper work. "We were talking one day about how overweight we were getting, so we decided to start exercising," said Penny Hutchison, physical educqtion instructor. The teachers found that exercising picked them up before they went home . " It's not just the motivation to get in shape and lose weight that keeps me doing it," said Chris Wahl, English teacher. " I've found that after exercising, I have more energy to get all my household jobs and paper work done. " The exercisers bent, stretched, jogged in place, puffed , and sweat along with Joni Greggins on the Morning Stretch program, which the media department had taped for the group. The next morning, the teachers often complained of sore, aching msucles. " There are mornings when you just try to roll out of bed, and once you're up, not bend anything," said Mary Gepner, social studies instructor. Social studies teacher Dennis DeVault also chose to exercise occasionally by jogging five to ten miles after school. " I run basically because I enjoy it and to keep my weight down." Others preferred to exercise their minds playing chess instead of working up a sweat. " Before I came to AL, I was at Edison and the big thing there was cribbage," said Phil Nielsen , physical education instructor. " I never played chess and the first year, I never won a game ! My chess skills are improved now, and it's fun to play." 191 Bess Pappas. Counselor Bob Pettepier. Math Analysis, Trig, Algebra 3· 4, Head Softball Peggy Rodriguez.

Sponsors find after-school hours and nerve-wracking situations frustrating but • • • WORTHWHmLE '' 8 ut Mrs. Grandick, we want to go home tonight!" six homesick and cranky Speech and Debate Club members moaned as they huddled together in a parking lot in Sioux Falls. "If there's no heat in this stupid van, there's no way I'm driving back to CB!" speech and debate coach Marsha Grandick screamed back. Crouched beneath the dash, Grandick carefully pushed the missing heater fuse into place, and every· one breathed a sign of relief as the heater kicked on. Sometimes being a club's sponsor required more than supporting members and keeping the group orga· nized. "I figure that with my automotive skills, I can go into mechanics if I quit teaching," Grandick said. Countless after-school hours were put in by dedicated sponsors to publish the yearbook and newspaper, present entertaining musical productions, coach speakers an? debaters to State, and organize effective porn pon and cheerleading squads. "I spend close to 25 hours each week after school sitting in the same chair reading copy and discussing ideas with students," said Linda Smoley, yearbook and newspaper adviser. Besides spending endless extra hours, sponsors sometimes had to solve conflicts within the group. In her first year as cheerleading sponsor, for example, Patti Ford encountered resistance when she revised some squad regulations. " Mr. Messerli said I could handle it any way I wanted to, and I chose to make a few new rules," said Ford. " Some of the girls disagreed because my rules were different from last year." Some students felt they should be able to make their own decisions without sponsors' intervention. " Scheib is a great Senior Class sponsor," said Michelle Maaske '83. "When we have an idea, he won't say, 'I have a better one.' He'll help us develop our own." Sponsors agreed that helping students develop their ideas and watching them grow and progress was worth all the time and hassles. " You meet the neatest kids in the world," said Smoley, "and then you watch them grow up into wonderful young adults." Jennie Bonnichsen. Cook Marge Brandon. Cook Linda Bryen. Aide Bev Crousehorn.

One trick he found successful was to eat half his hamburger and then take it back, saying it wasn't done to perfection. " It works all the time," said Stingley. "They usually won't argue about raw hamburgers; they just give me another one! " Other students found themselves trying to beat high costs by ordering just enough to satisfy their hunger. " I know how much I can eat, so I don't waste a lot of money ordering food that I won't finish," said Laurie Koontz '84. Sometimes having little brothers and sisters meant sacrificing. part of a student's own meal. " I don't mind sharing something with my brother, so we can cut down on the cost," said Robin Smith '85. Another way to shrink a restaurant bill was for friends to pool their money. "It helps us save money when we all chip in for pizza," said Kim Dittmer '85, " so we don't have to buy our own." Whether students were starving for pizza, fish , chicken, hamburgers, tacos, or some other form of quick nourishment, most said they chose a restaurant for its prices as well as quality of food . In a survey of 100 students, 32 said Burger King was their favorite place to eat. " I like Burger King for their economical prices and because you don't have to wait forever for your food," said Steve Lincoln '84. When students could remember to use 'two for the price of or.e' coupons, they got the chance to get twice as much food at a cheaper price. "Some people think it's a waste of time to cut out coupons, but you'd be surprised how much money you save in a year's time," said Scott Coffin '84.

At my school in Norway we can buy only milk and yogurt and things like that because we have open campus. I also like the students. They are really ope n and friendly." - Grete Mathisrud '83 " I like the location of A.L. beca use I can walk to school every morning. I especially like Mr. Lara a nd Mr. Allen because they talk to kids on the same level." - Jacque Hyde '84 "When I first came here, I expected a city school to have a lot of discipline problems with security patrolling the halls because I came from a small town. I a lso expected a lot of va ndalism. The k ids are well behave d. The teachers and students are friendly and polite. It seems that most students are involved in things, not just sitting around complaining about how things should be." - Debbi Garrett, student they are very macho, and I like the location of A.L.

Toilet paper forming the words " '83 forever" clung to the grassy hill. Yes, 1983 was a year to remember. As amazed fans, we had cheered our athletes to eight winning seasons and five city championships. "The golf team won about every tournament we entered and now we're off to Districts! " said Curt Nielsen '85. :'What a classy way to end the school year!" Singers, too, astonished us with their dedication. After 14 of them crooned their way to the All-State Festival, 67 choir members went on to receive two Division I ratings, one at Harlan and one at Worlds of Fun. "Right after we sang at Worlds of Fun, the ratings were posted. Mr. Spann held up a one with his finger, and his 206 WITH ON E LAST H UG before the graduation cere m ony, Becky Gilbert and Barb Jensen walk to the cafeteria . hands were shaking! We were all overwhlemed with our performance, " said Sheryl Cory '83. Pride filled us, too, as we listened time and again to announcements of more awards won by speakers, debaters, and journalists. At last count, these groups had amassed 80 trophies, plaques, and certificates and had gained such honors as first place newspaper in Iowa, one of the top five yearbooks in the nation, and third place in state debate competition. This fall, the Speech and Debate Club set out to break last year's record of 25 awards, but we didn't expect to receive 34!" said Lowell Bryant '83. Yes, we had accomplished more in 1983 than we had ever imagined we could, and as we glanced at the paper message clinging to the grass on the hill, memories of those achievements and priceless moments flooded our minds. _ I !I TENNIS SHOES WITH A PROM TUX?

On the last day of school, Joe Hauser, boys' track coach, gives hugs to Dee Chirstensen and Mike Lee, the first State champion tracksters in AL history! Christensen placed first in the shot put with a throw of 42'9", the sixth best in State history. Lee, who placed first in the 3200-meter run, had a time of 9:25.6, ten seconds ahead of the second place finisher. GEARING UP FOR STATE, Dee Christensen practices her discus throw on the AL track. In addition to her first place shot put throw, Christensen hurled the discus 123'10" for third place. "IF YOU DON'T PRACTICE HARD and believe you're going to win, you won't," said Mike Lee. Lee practices his running technique on the AL cross country course. • • / ----Cf?etweett the coveh 9 t all began in July 1983, when seven yearbook editors went to a journalism workshop in Iowa City. There they ate, drank, slept, showered, and breathed page designs, theme ideas, paste-ups, copy and caption writing. But the really hard work started when they joined 14 staffers and their adviser to make all those new ideas a reality. Part of that reality lay in technical consistency - strict adherence to these sticky details: Except for art heads, all type was company set by Herff Jones Yearbooks in Marceline, Missouri, according to the following specifications. All body type is 10 pt. Souvenir Light except for division pages, which are in 12 pt. Folio tabs are 12 pt. Souvenir Demi; scoreboards and captions are 8 pt. Souvenir Demi; folio numbers are 18 pt. Souvenir Demi. Quote outs. news heads. and subheads range from 12 to 42 pt. Optima Black. Opening, closing, division pages, endsheets. and index heads are Murray Hill Bold, reduced or enlarged by the company to specifications. Art heads are Zipatone 42 pt. Swing for student life; Letraset 30 and 48 pt. Princetown for sports; Zipatone 36 pt. Fritz Quadrata for academics; Zipa· tone 48 and 24 pt. Dom Casual Diagonal for organizations: Zipatone 48 pt. York and Zipatone 36 pt. Golly for people. All rule lines are one or two pt. and were company set. The 700 copies of the 1983 Crimson and Blue, Volume 85. are printed on Bordeaux 80-pound paper. The cover is custom embossed on 160 pt. cross-laminated binder's board, using Olympic Silver base material with Cadmium Red applied silk screen. The four-color photo block was tipped on by Crimson and Blue staffers. Sixteen pages were printed in full color. and 32 used the following spot colors: Ultra red, silver, cyan, ochre. Endsheets were printed in silver. The 1982 Crimson and Blue received a Medalist and Gold Crown from CSPA, a Five-Star All American and Pacemaker from NSPA. and t be Sweepstakes Trophy at Northwest Missouri State University's J-Day. For the fourth consecutive year, the Crimson and Blue was selected as a National Showcase Sample for Herff Jones. haltl~ youf,_____- ewe owe a sincere thank-you to all of the supporters and helpers who made our 1983 book possible.
