Lincoln East High School opened its doors to students in September of 1967. The class of 1977 will be the tenth class to graduate from East High . .Since 1967, East has always strived for higher goals and achievements. The need for a new high school was realized in 1962 when other high schools were becoming overcrowded. Plans were drawn and the new school was considered ultra-modern and magnificent. Construction on the building began in 1966. Numerous strikes threatened the completion of the school. A fire in the library and the tarring of a wall by vandals delayed the construction, but when East finally did open, it was complete except for sidewalks to the parking lot. During the first year there were 1,431 students enrolled. The school was built to accommodate 1,600 students with an expansion possibility to 2,200. Already, space problems were foreseen. The Board of Education said the Junior High would be out of the building in three years. East High was considered an innovative school, both in teaching techniques and in physical structure. The fact that there were no windows drew considerable attention. The first principal was Dr. Jean McGrew who fit into the innovative view. He felt students should be -allowed to reach their full educational potential by use of achievement classes, modular scheduling, and many other innovations.

There is more to a school than just a building. The need for identity was realized because students still held on to their old loyalties. A campaign was started to choose a nickname for East. When the students pre-registered for their classes they voted on school colors and overwhelmingly chose blue and white. During the election for a name, interested stude nts displayed posters promoting their favorite names. Broncos, Jackrabbits, Trojans, and 24 other names were suggested. Spart ans and Hawks were the favorites and in the final voting Spart ans won a unanimous decision. The Spart ans were great Greek warriors from the city Spart a and it is from here that we get our Greek traditions. Martin Spartin, a comic warrior, was drawn by John Hancock and was chosen as a mascot. Most of the traditions we know now were started during the first year of school. Even though there were no alumni, the students wanted a Homecoming. Pep Club was organized and named the Nikians to compliment the Greek tradition. Cheerleaders were chosen; but majorettes weren 't chosen until East's second year. Porn Pon started in 1973. Clubs were starte d by interested students and teachers. Most of our clubs were named from Greek themes with the help of the Panathenaic Council. This was a club create d to further Greek traditions. It was disbanded after eight years because its goals had been met. During the first year of East, a contest was held to find a school song. A prize of $50 was offered to the winner. It wasn't until 1969 that "Hail to the Spart ans" was written by Jerry Boste r and accepted as the official school song.

East High Recei ves New Administrator Mr. Francis Arthur joined the administration staff to take the only job of his kind in Lincoln. His duties included developing and monitoring the activities, accounting and bookkeeping system. East received a new senior high prin•cipal, Mr. William Moss. Mr. Loy Marotz is the new junior high principal. A few developme_ntal program components provided opportunities for students to develop and learn as individuals. They were: teacher advising, cooperatively planned units, quarter courses, pupil progress reporting, shared decision-making and peer counseling. The Peer Advisor Program, was continued this year. The idea of the program is to get students to help other students, since students are frequently comforted by friends, according to Student Service Assistant Principal, Mr. James Rakers.

Advisor Program lnforms Students The counselors concentrated on an advisors program to increase the amount and quality of information given . to students. Counselors spent much of their time working within communities with advisors to help in planning programs, pre-registration of students, career selection, and introducing information about ways to further post-high school education plans. Along with assisting in these duties, the advisors also acted as friends to whom students could express problems. Through the advisor system counselors were able to effectively achieve their desired objectives with all students. In addition to counselor's regular work, they played an active role in organizing and coordinating programs for peer advisors, gifted students, optional school attendance, tutoring and career education.

Foreign Langu age Provides Activities Foreign Language department offered six different types of studies this year including: French, German, Spanish, Greek Roots, Latin Roots and Cooperatively Planned Units. Movies showed the differences in particular countries. The class planned and cooked meals and invited guest speakers that had visited or lived in another country. Magazines printed in different countries, language lab where students listened to their own techniques of speaking, and research projects are just a few of many types of fun activities that the teaching staff used for more student involvement, fun, and classroom participation.

Math Department Adds New Class A wide variety of math classes were offered this year, including a new math class taught by Mr. Blaine DeGraff, Basic Consumer Math. The class tutored the students in fundamental and practical uses of math. The students learned how to fill out income tax forms, how to balance a checkbook, and the economics of grocery shopping. Math was stressed this year as in previous years because it is a basic for many other courses offered at East High such as Accouhting, Chemistry, and Physics.

Science Staff Uses Demonstrations This year the science department added a new class to its curriculum, as well as a new approach fo teaching the EcoFuture class. Geology, a new class taught by Wes Durst, featured field trips, films and guest speakers. The Eco-Future class was team-taught this year by Bob Reeder, Roxie Sattler and Hugh Troshynski. It featured a series of Eco-Future film lesson~, which included topical treatment of energy, space, design, music and ecology. One class of Biology was taught by Robert Heng as part of the Community Learning Program. Activities in the science department included an ecology field trip to Pawnee Lake in the spring. Other activities were disection, observation of preserved animals, lab work, demonstrations, and guest speakers. The most popular science classes were Chemistry and Physiology. One of the goals of the science depart·· ment, as stated by Wes Durst, is to "let the students know a little more about the living world."

Bu sin es s De ve lo ps Office Op po rt un iti es Except for Mrs. Lee Gray, the East High Business Department teachers have been at East for ten years. Th'e teaching methods are constantly being improved to develop.a "saleable" skill to raise stud ents worth in a job experience, according to Leull a Van Vleck. Advanced Placement Accounting , a new class this year, is equal \to the University's business organization class and college credit is given. This is the seco nd year for both the "memory" typewriter and the cooperative office education work-study program. Twenty students enrolled can earn fifteen credit points and wages as an office worker in the community. Left: Lee Gray - Advanced Placement Accounting, Typing, Bookkeep ing, Quar ter Cour ses.

AP Histo ry Adde d To Socia l Studie s Three new teachers were added to the Social Studies Department this year. Mrs. Mary Campbell worked with junior high students in "Community Learning," a three period study. Mrs. Joan Marotz taught "Geography" and . ninth grade "World Studies". Mr. Ted Larson, an alumnus of East, substituted for Mr. Richard McGowan, and later replaced Mr. Paul Witherby. "Advanced Placement History" was a new class designed for the advanced student in history. A test was given upon completion and college credit could be earned for the class. Assessment was the theme of the department, according to Mr. Dwain Myers, department chairman. "With the graduation requirements revised in the near past, we need to see how effective our department is", said Mr. Myers. "With new additions to the teaching staff and our quarter courses, East showed strength in the variety of classes offered and in teaching styles."

Vo cat ion al Sla nt Ad ds Dim ens ion "Industrial arts classes give people insight into industry and help them recognize and enjoy things made by other people. Everyone could benefit from taking industrial arts classes. These classes teach you to work with your hands and recognize good design. If you find something you're interested in, it can be continued as a vocation or hobby," said Mr. Dale Wismer, industrial arts department chairman. Mr. Rickie Fitzpatrick was added to the teaching staff this year. He taught "Electronics", a class that had been discontinued last year because of a shortage of teachers. According to Mr. Wismer, his classes were 95 per cent lab work, with little take-home work. A new class was added secon d semester on a trial basis. The class was a cooperative program taught by Mr. Jerry Kohl. It covered a two hour class period and was offered to advanced students. It featured on-the-job vocational training at local garages and ·repair shops. Two types of industrial arts classes were taught by Mr. John Kennedy. Regular industrial arts cours es were college preparatory, designed to teach students common maintenance and basic techniques. Vocational training courses prepared stude nts for jobs after high school. The "Powder-Puff Mechanics" class, offered to girls, taught stude nts how to change a tire, as well as change the oil and antifreeze. It stress ed consumer awareness.

Main Conce rn Realis tic Living Home Economics centered classes around changing social and family roles, and around modern materials and concepts. This provided a more relevant atmospher e. Developmental stages, along with the changing sex roles in social and family life were among the areas covered by classes. Improvement in Human ·oevelopment was a main area of interst. It instructed students in the care of preschool and elementary aged children, and included some internship in day care centers and elementary schools. Working with these children gave students insight for future job training. The foods area introduced new classes on food preservation. These included instruction on canning and freezing food properly. "Wise Food Shopper" was a class to help students learn economical and conservative methods of selecting, purchasing and preparing type~ of meats. "Selecting and Decorating a Home" was another class taught to further students' knowledge of evaluating costs and problems that arise when selection of a home or apartment is made.

Space Problem Major Concern The Art Department offered many different types of classes and activities to satisfy students' varied interests. Included among these were drawing, painting, sculpture, pottery and stitchery. The department was well-balanced with three full-time t~achers to instruct and aid students in expressing their individuality. Over-crowding and lack of facilities was a concern of East's art teachers, who occupied two rooms for both junior and senior high art students.

P h ys ic a l Ed N e v e r B ef o re S o Flexible New to the Physical Education Department was the quarter co ur se "Recreational Games." It included instruction in bowling, pool, four-square, Frisbee, and fun! Many cooperatively planned units we re de sig ne d by stu de nt s, like horsemanship, boating, bicycling, camping and weight-lifting. Both women's and men's enrollment increased slightly, an d seven student teachers were found helpful. Mrs. Bonnie Nielson said, "T he emphasis in Physical Education classes was upon recreational sports and exercises that will last a lifetime." Men's cooperatively planned units were generally in weight training , aerobics and running to build stamina . Mr. Leroy Zentic was proud of the flexibility of the department. "T he enrollment shows a trend toward body-building, rather than team sports, although the competitive spirit is strong. So me liked the weightlifting classes. Th e capacity was small and ·more individual instruction could be given," said Mr. Zentic. This was the first year for coeducational gym classes (excepting swimming classes), and most participants felt the classes were successful. Physical Education Qu art er Co urs es, Dollfins.

Dri ver s' Ed Off ers Rea l Op por tun itie s "With a treme ndous system like the one at East we hope stude nts don't take the Driver Education cours e just to lower insura nce rates, " said Mr. Robert Eyth. "We don't guara ntee a license to anyone; just the knowledge to better prepa re them for one." New books were purch ased and used with the multi-media equipment, which, with its films and individual questioning, required the stude nt to dial an answer and then respo nded with corrections. The flexibility and variety of five different phase s kept both instructor and stude nt interested, as indicated by the good attend ance. The phase s were, classroom, simulation and behind-thewheel driving. These three were graded. The range and multi-media were learning experiences. On the range, the dema nd for the standa rd .transmission, econo my car was met. This will be helpful in the future, with the gas-saving car growing in popularity. The increasing enrollment filled not only semes ter classes, but the all-school summer sessio ns as well. Mr. Harol d Slaight taugh t Adult Driver Education using the resou rces at East.

A-V, Media Ce nt ~r St af fs Aid St ud en ts Sign-making, laminating, video taping, photocopying and dittoing were just a few of the services performed by the Audio-Visual Department at East. The department also provided sound equipment for all pep rallies, and lighting crews for all East productions. "The purpose of the Audio-Visual Department is to serve as the 'hub of a wheel' for the school," said Mr. Tom Crockett, audio-visual specialist. Its main function was to help teachers by preparing teaching aids, but stud ents could also use the services offered. According to Mr. Crockett, the East High department is above the National Recommended Standards in most areas. Car eer Information was offered in the Media Center. College and vocational school catalogs as well as information and pamphlets about specific jobs were included in the center. The library subscribed to 180 magazines and contained over 21,000 volumes. It also contained teaching aids such as filmstrips, film loops, maps and • records.

Co lo r Code Shifts In Ea st Ca /et er ia New policies concerning classification of Type A lunches in the senior high was one of the changes in the cafeteria t}:lis year. Students in senior high were allowed to choose from several color coded dishes to make a Type A, fiftyfive cent lunch. Ope n campus for the senior high was continued this year, with students receiving a forty minute lunch period. Activity tickets, bus tickets, and outof-town game tickets were sold by the office staff. They also answered phone calls, ordered supplies and recorded attendance . Jean ette Davis served as secretary to the counselors. As well as answering students' questions, and keeping the counseling area running smoothly, she sold tickets to both the PSAT and ACT tests. Jan et Zenner continued as nurse at East High. She attended to everything from minor aches and pains to broken bones. The janitors and custodians deserve a special thanks for their work keeping the school dea n.

While Planning for Future Caree rs, Senio r Class Unite s The senior class was presented with the problem of what to do with their future, raising questions like: Should I continue my education? Should I get married and settle down? or, Should I get a job and take it easy? Most seniors looked into furthering their education. Information about different colleges was made available through the Career Education Program in the library. The senior students agreed this helped, but most think their decision was based more upon informatio n received through the College Representative Program. One senior girl said, "With representatives coming in from in and around Nebraska, I received more in-

formation about many different colleges." Seniors had a chance to find out what they really wanted by looking through all the information available to them. A senior boy said, "It was really important that I find a career I like myself instead of certain careers pushed in my face." Most members of the senior class felt this was a year spent getting to know each other better. Many felt 'the senior class had always been united in spirit and in helping each other. There were a lot of ski trips and other activities planned within the school groups. Also many individuals got together over the breaks and went skiing.

Seniors were undecided about how they felt towards leaving East. Many were students of East for six years and other? only three years. One senior boy said, "East is a great school and I'll miss all my friends but I think I'm ready for college life." Many plan to revisit East to talk to their friends and their favorite teachers. Most teachers feel the atmosphere around East is comfortable for the students and are sure most will come back once or twice. With parties, homecoming and prom activities, spirit week, graduation and outside activities, the seniors of East High had a memorable year.

Junio rs Strive Towa rd Individualism Witho ut Giving Up Unity Juniors made up an important part of East High School. They were like the "rocking chair" in a "convoy"; the middle car that receives information from the front and sends it back. For awhile it seemed some students lost contact with involvement in school activities. The junior class tried to bring this involvement back, through sports~ musicals and other extra-curricular activities. While they seemed to be getting more involved in school activities, they were, at the same time, very much a class of individuals. Juniors played a more significant role in varsity sports during the year, than they have in past years. They participated in a wide variety of sports such as football, basketball, volleyball, gymnastics, swimming, and many more. As one junior put it, "East High would have never made it without us."

When asked what they would like their student council to do for them, everything from more stag and formal dances to class parties and class keggers was suggested. Places juniors liked to "hangout" were: King Dollar, McDonalds, Village Inn, anywhere but home or school, or, for many, a party. Some favorite T.V. shows were "Charlie's Angels", and "Happy Days", "Leave It To Beaver" and "Channel Two Late Movie." Many juniors took the P.S.A.T. test with the thought of college in the back of their minds. As one junior said, "We are no longer one of the unknown classes, we are almost to the top without having to take as many of the responsibilities of the top." Another junior said, "I don't have to spend a lot of time planning a weekend, I -

just kind of let it ride and see what 1 happens. ' Descr1bing "the junior year", one member of the junior class said, "I've made it this far so I might as well finish it. Junior year is the year when you are so close to the end that you feel like you just might make it after all. " When juniors were asked to say something about their class in one sentence, they replied: "I think my class could be a little more honest and a lot less destructive." "The people in my class are some of the best people I know." "I love it!" "It's the greatest!" "It's a group of individuals, and that is what it takes to make -up the class of '78."

Juniors Nanci Ruyle, Shelley Sailors and Terri Parrish find halls a good place to catch.up on the latest gossip around school, during a free period.

Sop hom ore s Tak e Difference s in Str ide "Ther e is definitely a big difference between Junior and Senior High. There 's a lot more freedom, as well as responsibility." Comments like this were common among many sophomores. A sophomore girl said, "There's so much to do! I love it! But I really have to organize my time to do everything I want." But most showed they could handle school and a social life as well. This year, as in previous years, there were many new students at East as well as the sophomores that went to East

Junior High. Many of the new students were impressed with the easy-going atmosphere at East and the studentteacher relationships . A sophomore boy said, "You really feel like the teachers want to help, it's not just a job to them. " When asked what they wanted to do before graduating from East, responses included: Taking at least one hard class, getting to know everyone, lettering, making the honor roll, and winning spirit week!

h ig H or ni Se of t ar P e B o T ud ro P Lincoln E as t Junior High "I don't think they even notice me," one eighth grader commented. "I don't notice them, either." Most gummers, (the name given junior high students by senior high students) said they would, when ·they reach senior high, treat younger students as they want to be treated . . Junior high stu den ts have see n the privileges at East, thanks to the presence of the senior highers. Th e young- • ste rs say they're proud to be in a school where they can enjoy new equipment, open gym, and seventh period passes. "Going to school with such privileges actually gets us ready for our years in high school," said sophomore Julie Fleming. "We couldn't be prouder to be a part of East High School," another said. East Junior High students do seem to adapt to the high school level faster than sophomores from other schools. • Although Lincoln East Junior High School is somewhat separated from the senior high, gummers feel they're a big part of the senior high. The junior high students are still bumped, threatened, pushed around and called "gummers," but ·they show little resentment towards their upperclassmen. On e ninth grader said, "In the three years I've gone here people have become interested in knowing how I feel about the senior high students. I told them they're ok, and that I wouldn't want to go to another junior high." Th e seventh graders who came to East High this year found it difficult at first to relate to the senior high students. On e seventh grader said, "Th e senior high students seem to pick out the new ones right away. I expected never to hear from any senior high student. I w~s shocked to hear them call me 'gummer ,' but I decided it's bet ter than the silent treatment.'_'After the first couple of months the new students were not aware of the word "gummer." "Th e eighth grade class seems to be caught in the middle. They're being pushed around by the ninth graders, so they don't really notice the senior high." Upp er Right: Fres hma n (left to right) Lori Stra tman , Suz ann e Orr , Sha ron Kelly get ready for a first period class. Right: Julie Eberle plays bas s clarinet for the junior high band.

Winning Tr ad iti on Co nt in ue s in 6-2 Ye ar The winning tradition was continued again this year as the Spa rtan reserves played well to form a winning ball club. "This year's team fulfilled what a coach wants out of a ball club, that is, improving and learning with each game they play and keep the winning tradition going," said Coacy Bob Eyth. The team recorded a 6-2 record and a tie for the Capital City Championship. Tha t brought the Spa rtan reserve record from 1968-1976 to 56 wins, 8 losses and 4 ties. The Spa rtan 's only losses came against Ralston and Lincoln High. In the Ralston game the Rams outlasted a tough Spa rtan ball club, winning by 1 point, 13-12. Among the Spa rtan s' most important wins of the seas on was a 32-20 win over an always tough ball club, Fremont. "Fre mon t had to be the best all around game played by our young men. We went out and stuc k it to them, and any time you bea t Fremont you know you have a good ball club," said Coa ch Eyth. Coa ch Eyth mentioned two ball players on the team that he thought played extremely well. They were Stev e Vensky and Stev e Chapman.

"Steve Vensky was only with us half the year before being moved up to varsity and in that short time he managed to average over 125 yards a game for us," said Coa ch Eyth. Steve Vensky carried the ball 45 times for 468 yards with a 10.4 average per carry. He also received the Outstanding Back of the Year Award on this year's team. "Steve Chapman did a super job for . us all year. Steve set a new school record with 77 defensive tackles and was voted by his teammates as Outstanding Lineman of the Year," said Coa ch Eyth. Adding to a good defensive was a strong secondary. They picked off 21 opponent passes for a school record. .Coa ch Eyth said, "Th e most memorable game had to be the Millard game. In that game the Spa rtan s played with no desire to stop scoring as they compiled 67 points against the Millard ball club. Mr. Eyth was assisted by Line Coa ch Paul Forch. Coach For ch said "Th ese young men got the job done and that 's what's needed to have a successful seas on and a winning tradition." East 12 32 12 67 7 21 7 0

on as Se g sin Lo ite sp De e nc rie pe Ex in Ga n me id So ph om or e Gr This year's sophomore team recorded a 2-4-1 record, which, in many people's minds, is a bad season. Yet sophomore football was a learning experience. "Sophomore football players are supposed to make mistakes or else they wouldn't be here, they would be on reserves or varsity. Sophomore football is a place where a kid finds out if he is capable of playing bali and it is also a learning process for growing," said Coach Joh n Henry. Many agreed there was no pressure to win in sophomore football; there was pressure to improve throughout the year as a person and as a football player. Even though the sophomores had a bad season, Coach Rudy Stoe hr accomplished his goal, which he said was to teach a player to improve on his skills and abilities and to learn what competition is. "This year's team was different in one respect, the ball players on the team were more equal, there were not top individuals; everyone was just as good as his teammate," said Coa ch Henry. Coach Henry praised Dave Bodfield, a split end on offense and monster on defense, and Todd Hartman, who played center and defensive end. Both showed good effort throughout the season. Upp er Right: Sophomore defense makes sure opponent has little running room . Below: Sophomore middle guard Dave John son plugs the hole as Southeast running back finds no where to go. Low er Right: Offensive line fires off as Bob Budde receives center snap .

"In the Millard game Jim Kulawick gave us a real good effort on a goal line stance," said Coa ch Henry. With the player's ·abilities so equal, Coa ch Henry felt that everyone they put in did a good job. This was true at quarterback where all three quarterbacks played in at least two games. Mr. Stoehr and Mr. Henry were once again assisted by Coach Bill Kechley. Bill has been helping for three years on the sophomore staff. "Crowd support was exceptitmal, this year. The team was followed out of town by the parents. This is a great tribute to the player's parents. It gives the players more incentive to do better," said Coa ch Henry. Going into the Papillion game, the sophomores had been shut out by two Lincoln teams. Through a good effort by the team, the ball club was able to beat Papillion by a score of 16-12. Coach Henry said, "These kids are great. Sophomore football can make a man out of a boy. When a kid puts i11 three hours of practice every night and doesn't play in a game he then realizes what he must do to improve and get that ability to compete."

S e n io r L e a d e r s h ip , C o n f id e n c e Fade; V a r s it y Wins T w o G a m e s A combination of mistakes and lack of leadership hu rt th e varsity football team. A far cry from last year's st at e championship team, the 1976 sq ua d lacked what a championship team must possess: leadership, confidence, and unity . Winning two of nine games this season, th e Sp ar ta ns st ar te d out on a good note, bu t th at glory of victory wouldn't come • again, until four games later, against Millard. "I felt, and the coaching staff felt, that we ha d the potential on this year's ball club at the beginning of th e season, but things began to happen," said C oa ch Lee Zentic. H ap pe n they did, as the Sp ar ta ns winning string of 23 games came to an en d with th e G ra nd Island loss. "W e played all ou r games equally, ex ce pt for the G ra nd Island game," said C oa ch Zentic. "T ha t game we made more mistakes an d were not mentally prepared." W ha t do es it ta ke to win? In most players' minds, mental preparation is ab ou t 75 pe r ce nt an d ability th e rest. Comparing the varsity football team with last year's st at e championship team, returning letterman D ea n Nelson commented, "This year we got mentally pr ep ar ed for N or th Platte, but after th at the players lacked th e most important element of football, a pa rt of attitudemental preparation. Getting up for a

game, getting mentally prepared to win is what football is all about. You ca n tell by just looking at a person's face if he is mentally prepared." A lack of leadership and costly mistakes were key factors. Senior Craig Bohl, returning letterman and All-City from a year ago, received a shoulder separation during th e North Platte game. "Craig could have given us the leadership we needed this year. It's just.unfortunate th at he was hurt because he would have been a great asset to this year's team," said C oa ch Zentic. "We had a lack of senior players this year, which resulted in lack of leadership, and in lack of confidence," said Bohl. "I know th at each player did his best, bu t it just se em ed we came out on the wrong en d of the stick this year ." Losing two games by just one point, and losing a total of eight games by not more than nine points in each game shows that the defense allowed few points, while the offense couldn't gen- er at e a consistent attack. Leading the defense throughout th e year were Dean Nelson and junior Rhett Stephenson. Nelson was named to AllCity guard on offense, while also contributing on defense with 44½ tackles. St ep he ns on was also named to All-City, as a defensive tackle. While the defense was spending much of its time on th e field this year,

the offense turned the ball over 32 times. "We will stay with th e veer-offense next .year. I still believe in it, yet, there may be a few variations next year as to formation," said C oa ch Zentic. O ne thing that the ball club did possess was the desire to play. The meat squad is a volunteer unit which goes against th e first string in practice to prepare for a game. C oa ch Jo hn Gingery, assistant varsity coach, was the fireplug for the squad. "This team may not be on the score •board right now," he said. "But they're still winners. They're the ones that want to win the most or get a chance to play." Assisting Coach Zentic was Lyle Sittler, defense coordinator. Mr. Zentic singled out defensive linebacker Jim Strasheim and center Steve Harbaugh. Leading ball carrier on the team was junior Russ Karr. Karr carried the ball 50 times for 262 yards. Senior Mike Borcher was a close second with a 5.2 yard average per carry.

s' es cc u S ic st na ym G in nt ie ed gr In ey K e Jo hn so n: 'C on fi de nc Confidence made it possible for the gymnastics team to finish undefeated in dual meets and finish third in the state meet. "The biggest problem we had this year was at the beginning of the season. Th at problem was lack of confidence,',. said Co ach Jeff Johnson. Lack of confidence soon disappeared as the Spartans began to believe in themselves as wins began to pile up. Wins over So uth eas t and Lincoln High contributed to this success. Th e Spartans lost only two seniors from last year's gymnastic team. "Last year the kids could rely on people above them if they made a mistake. This year it became a reality as the load was on everyone's shoulders. With confidence building throughout the year we became a solid team," said Coach Johnson. The team was once again led by allaround man Dave Beal. Beal finished third in the sta te all-around competition

behind two excellent gymnasts. Co ach Joh nso n said, "Dave Beal is by far the bes t gymnast tha t has ever come out of East High School. Dave did his bes t in the sta te meet, but those two ahead of him will probably be in the next Olympics. They were in a class by themselves." Beal cap tur ed the 1-80, TransNebraska and District all-around honors. He finished with a score of 47.10 in the sta te meet which would have bee n good enough to have won the majority of the pas t 35 sta te meets ; Also doing well in this year's sta te gymnastics meet was Joh n Duxbury. Duxbury finished fourth on the floor exercise. Both Dave Beal and Joh n Duxbury made the All-City team. East gained much of its confidence by winning over So uth eas t in a dual meet. After .trailing throughout the meet, the Spartans made a tremendous comeb~ck. With only one event left, the Sp artans trailed by four points.

"Everyone buckled down and got the job done as we pulled it out by just a point and a half," said Co ach Joh nso n. Gymnastics has grown in popularity , largely due to the heroes of the spo rt, and increased television coverage. "Th e Olympics is a good illustration where not only boys have become interested in gymnastics, but now girls as w~ll. Th ose performers have stimulated gymnastics greatly," said Co ach Joh nso n.

Leade r Mulva ney Recei ves Duff~c Awar d A combination of hard workouts over the summer and top individual efforts led this year's tennis team to a winning season. Winning seven of their ten dual meets and placing no worse than third 1 in major meets, the Spartans showed good calibre. This year's team was once again led by Bob Mulvaney. "Bob showed good individual play and was a team leader," said coach Keith Watt. Bob received the Robert Duffee award, which goes to the most outstanding tennis player in the city. Coaches from all five high schools vote for a top senior they feel has most improved and shown good play. Bob said, "This award means a lot to me. After the long hard hours of work, to be rewarded with this is great." Mr. Watt said, "The most improved persons on this year's team have to be Jay Haase and Mike Leikam. These two

boys played up to eight hours of tennis a day over the summer, and it really paid off." Jay and Mike teamed up this year as No. 2 doubles partners. Their biggest reward was winning city and TransNebraska meets. Also joining this year's team with good effort were brothers Ruston and Brent Seaman. Both showed good play that made them the No. 2 and No. 3 singles players respectively. "One of biggest things about this year's team is that the players came with skills already developed before the season started," said Mr. Watt. The 1-80 meet was the closest East came to beating Southeast. "That meet was the most memorable meet all season," said Mr. Watt. Bob Mulvaney defeated top seeded Rick Lange and both the No. 1 and No. 2 doubles placed in the top three. Bill North assisted Mr. Watt.

"Workouts seem to get tougher each year," said Co ach Jim McConnell. "Competition in Class A is increasing each year and the only way to remain a contender is to work harder." The Sp art ans opened their season with a sec ond place finish among seven teams at the Wesleyan Invitational. Though they placed first in all dual meets and placed no worse than second in invitationals, the Sp art ans were not satisfied. Co ach Jim McConnell said, "Placing second is just not good •enough, first

Dunnigan placed first in every meet exc ept stat e where he finished second behind one excellent runner. "No doubt, Brian is the best long distance runner that's come out of East," said Coa ch McConnell. Coa ch McConnell pointed out that this year's team was built around senior leadership. Helping the younger runners throughout the season made it

possible for East to finish tenth in the Stat e meet this year. "Dedication must be exhibited to be on the Cro ss Country team. You have to be dedicated to get your body in shape to run 2½ miles, which is the length of most r·aces," said Coa ch McConnell. Joining Brian Dunnigan and Jeff Turner was Brian Coyne, one of the top three runners. Brian Coyne said, "Dedication and senior leadership made this team what it is, and that is team members pulling for each other."

Although hurt by graduation, the dedicated and hard-working girls strived to accomplish the desired task s set before them. The grea test highlight of the year was the win over Lincoln High in the Eas tern 1-80 Con fere nce Tou rnam ent, which earn ed the varsity a first place finish. The biggest disappointment, however, was the loss to Beatrice in the first round of District play which abolished the Spa rtan s' hope of gaining a bert h to State. Coa ch Myron Oehlerking summarized the year, "We played good volleyball all seas on, but we made mistakes in all matches. In volleyball, as in othe r sports, if thos e mistakes com e at the wrong time it can result in a loss." While several varsity mem bers were recognized by winning stat e and city

awards, many different people led the team in several areas. The efforts of all mem bers assu red a winning seas on for the Spa rtan s. Ending with a 10-2 record, the reserve team also claimed succ ess on the court. Mrs. Bonnie Nielson coac hed the girls to a seco nd place finish in the city.

Unity Ke y Fa ct or in Du ck ie Dr iv e to Se co nd Pl ac e Finish Unity contributed to the succ ess of the girl's swim team as the Duckies swam to a second place finish in the Stat e meet - the first trophy ever won at a stat e tournament by an East High girl's swimming and diving team. The young varsity team, which consisted of five seniors, eleven juniors, and sixteen sophomores, was again coached by Mr. Dennis Vokolek. The reserve's coach was Mrs. Merlanne Wood. Coa ch Vokolek commented that the turning point of the seas on was after the 1-80 meet in late October, when the team decided to quit functioning as a group of individuals and to swim as a unit. "In functioning as a team, they won as a team," said Vokolek. Sup erb individual efforts were turned in by juniors Kay Stro mer and Sheryol Peterson while state champion Kris

Funk led the field. The divers were paced by seniors Karin Olson and Debbie Bale, who placed second and third at Stat e respectively. Two of the greatest highlights of the season were the victory over Sou thea st at the Stat e meet, and keeping the eight year l!ndefeated dual meet record. As great as these achievements were, the greatest highlight was the second place finish at the stat e tournament. The Duckies stood seventh going into the finals. Coa ch Vokolek credits the second place as a "great Spa rtan effort." The reserve Duckies also had a successful season. Ten sophomore girls combined their talent to win the City Championship. Although it was the smallest reserve team in Lincoln, Coa ch Merlanne Wood praised the team as "making up for this with their might."

After a disappointing season for his Spartan wrestlers, Coach Jim Holechek said he anticipated many returning lettermen for next year's squad. In what Mr. Holechek called a disgusting year, the matmen finished with a 3-7 record. Despite a second place finish in the 1-80, the team concluded the season by placing last in district competition. Injuries were one of the major obstacles for the Spartan wrestlers this year. Missed by the team was senior Jon Jarvis, who qualified last year for state. Senior Kenny Hewitt and Junior Joel Heck, who were also plagued with injuries for most of the season, were still able to compete in the state tournament. Monty Shirk and Junior Rich Erixson were among others who were missed by Coach Holechek and his Spartan wrestlers. In the state meet, Kenny Hewitt and Doug Dederman were the only East High wrestlers to win their matches, but were defeated in their second round

matches. Other wrestlers who competed in the State Tournament were seniors Glenn Smith and Bob Schwarz and juniors Joel Heck and Jerry Jones. "Competitive urge is very essential to all wrestlers," said Coach Holechek. "Our men must have the Killer Instinct while on the mats with their opponents." Some of the matmen acknowledged for fine performances throughout the year were Joel Heck, Doug Dederman, Kenny Hewitt, Jerry Jones, Glenn Smith, and Bob Schwarz. East 14 35 12 30 12 16 4 29 36 20

'Boys' Swim Tea m is Ha rde st Working Ever' - Vo kol ek • "The 1977 boys' swim team was by far the hardest-working team I have coached in my ten years at East High," said Coach Dennis Vokolek. Mr. Vokolek said the swim team was the best team, personnel-wise, he has ever had at East. "If this group of young men doesn't win state this year, then I strongly believe that East may not have another chance to win state for another ten years," said Mr. Vokolek. Senior leadership played a big part in the success of the 1977 boys' swim team. Mr. Vokolek said, "The seniors know that this year is their last shot at winning state." The seniors gained the experience at past state tournaments which was helpful, according to Mr. Vokolek. He added that his team's hard work and good health led to high success. As each member prepared for state in his specialized event, he realized that

his performances in the meets prepared him for state. Senior Todd Bartholome said, "One must peak at state. This must be his best performance. Winning state is where it's at." A strong diving team helped this year's team. Mike Gartn er and Jim Beal were cited by Mr. Vokolek for strong suppo rt on the board performance. "I kept telling these kids that if they worked hard, results would show," said Mr. Vokolek. "The swimmers swam 8,000 yards the day before a meet. That's like scrimmaging the day before a football game." Coach Vokolek praised seniors Bartholome, Jeff Johnson, Chris Rutford and junior Larry Summers for doing an excellent job this year. Mr. Vokolek said he is impressed that the swimmers of today are bigger, stronger, and wiser, and the coaching is getting better.

Assisting Mr. Vokolek was Scott Martin, a former East swimmer. "I relied heavily on Scott to do a good job coaching when I was not available," said Mr. Vokolek. "The whole staff helped tremendously this year, especially managers Steve Gross , and Denise Knezovich." Mr. Vokolek said the paren t turnout was especially good this season.

Va rsit y Ba ske tba ll Tea m Co nti nue s Ea st's Winning Tradition East continued its winning ways again this year as quickness and ball handling aided the '77 team towards a successful season. "This year we had players who were quick, could handle the ball well and were good shooters," said Coach Paul Forch. "Even Cente r Bob Mulvaney could grab down a rebound and dribble the length of the floor while under pressure." East went from being a weak sister team among Lincoln teams to being a top competitor. East opened its season with a victory over Bellevue, 57-47. The Spart ans next test was against a top-rated Central ball club. That loss was only temporary as the Spart ans went on to win the next five out of six games. Mr. Forch said, "We had good aggressive ball players with the ingredients to fast break and be a run and gun team. Run and gun is the fan's kind of basketball." "We had a very good offense, yet at the same time we were not ignoring our defensive play," said Mr. Forch. Mr. Forch said that the city was very well-balanced. East, running, South east, strength, Lincoln High, personnel and North east, experience, made for

good basketball. "Burke had to be one of our best game performances this year," said Mr. Forch. East gained the confidence they needed in the victory over Burke. In defeating Burke, East climbed into the top ten rating of the state teams, ranking fifth. Mr. Forch cited Dick Chancellor and Bob Mulvaney as leaders of the ball club. "Dick had the most experience. Playing with th_at experience, Dick was ab!~ to lead the ball club very well this year." Mr. Forch added , "Bob improved tremendously from last . year. T earnmates looked to Bob for scoring when a crucial period or play was at hand." Once again East participated in a Chris tmas tournament. This year Ralston was the host. Coach Forch said, "Chri stmas tourn amen ts are a time for coach es to try different combinations and a time for the player s to learn and gain experience through game competition." • East defeated-Lincoln High at Ralsto n bt.it was defeated by North east in the secon d game. "Papill-ion had great succe ss against North east in a zone, so in the third period I decided to switch to a zone. Being up by two at the time, I thought the move was at the right time.

North east came out and began to eat up the zone, hitting from outside, which eventually cost us the game ," said Mr. Forch. East's outlook for the future is .very good. Three of the five starte rs will be back next year. They are Tom Vergith, Jay Rodenburg, and Jim Strasheim. Also joining them will be some juniors and sopho mores coming up from the junior varsity level. Assisting Coac h F arch this year was Mark Sheilds.

Te am Unity, W or k, M ak es Re se rv e Te am T earn unity mad e it possible for this year's reserve basketball team to develop into an excellent ball club, according to Mr. Ed McPherren, coach. "Every year I tell my players the first day of practice that they stink," said Coa ch Ed McPherren. "But I also tell them that, if they practice hard, as the season prog ress es the team will grow from weak to strong." Mr. McPherren termed this year's team as a "warm team", a team of unity. By possessing this unity the reserves avoided many mental mistakes which always seem to plague a young, inexperienced team. "I told my players that if we were to get beat the only reason would be that we beat ourselves," said Mr. McPherren. "As each year goes by it seem s the players enjoy practice a little more than previous years," said Mr. McPherren. "If one enjoys practice, then many things can be accomplished in a shor ter time, which consequently gives the players mor e incentive to do a good job. "We had good determination this year, and with eight players knowing their capabilities, it became hard to play everyone enough," added Coa ch McPherren. "Each of these players were capable of starting, but only five can play at a time." Coa ch McP herr en cite d Dan a Childs, Russ Sea man and Bill Weddle

for giving good leadership. "Th e whole team this year was made up of leaders. These kids were a forceful group, which means they were prepared and wanted to play basketball," said Mr. McPherren. Performances against Central and Burke were con~idered by Coa ch McPherren to be excellent performances by East. "We were a team that was big and able to rebound, yet we had the quickness in our guards to also be a running team,"·said Mr. McPherren. This was Mr. McPherren's sixth year as reserve coa ch and he is looking forward to n€xt year. "I enjoy working with these kids. My main job is to groom these reserve players for future varsity competition." East 51 56 47 66 72 49 71 71 46 58 43 72 61 72 90

Sopho more Baske tball Teach es Funda menta ls, Comp etition The sophomore basketball team continued to stress the learning of fundamentals, game experience and .learning a competitive attitude. Mr. Steve Jaekel, first year sophomore basketball coach, found coaching a little _different than playing. "My hardest adjustment from player· to coach was preparing young talents for practices and games and deciding what fundamentals should be stressed in preparing for a game situation," said Coach Steve Jaekel. Attitude on the sophomore ball club was good, according to Jaekel. "We had kids come off the bench and do an excellent job for us," said Mr. Jaekel. Coach Jaekel said the players had excellent determination and did their best in games. By working hard in practice on game situations, Coach Jaekel felt his sophomore players learned the rewards of hard. work. This year's sophomore team was no exception from. other sophomore ball clubs; the players made many mistakes. Mr. Jaekel cited his team's performances against Ralston and Northeast as exceptional efforts. "At Ralston we played well enough to win, but were playing catch-up basketball most of the game," said Jaekel. "At Northeast, we

stayed in the game until the last few minutes, where we made costly turnovers which eventually cost us the game." Leading the team was Craig Seiko, who showed good shooting ability, good defense, and strong rebounding, according to Coach Jaekel. Mr. Jaekel said the sophomore program is built to develop possible future varsity players. Teaching the kids the fundamentals-and teaching them what it takes to become a good ball player were just two of the learning experiences in sophomore basketball. Assisting Coach Jaekel this year was Scott Clark. The student manager was Doug Batten. East 42 27 60 43 43 41 50 • 66 30 55 42 42

Ba se ba ll Em pl oy s Su rp ris e St ra te gy The strategy of the 1977 Spa rtan baseball team was to surprise the opponents. "We took more chances this year, with our running on bases, and hitting at the plate," said Coa ch Joh n Henry. By taking more chances, the club surprised many teams they played. Coach Henry cited many strengths in the ball club. "On e of the biggest strengths we have is the depth on the team," said Mr. Henry. "In having depth, one does not worry about injury as much, knowing that if a replacement is made, the replacement will not hurt you. "We have good depth at the catc her position in Chris Laird and Stev e Vensky. Second base is strong, as is first base. Overall, · every position has very good depth, depth we haven't had in previous years," said Mr. Henry. Mr. Henry said, "Bob Mulvaney is . probably the better fielder of the first basemen, Rhett Stevenson the best hitter, and Jeff Buller the bett er allaround player." Commenting on the pitching, Mr. Henry said, "At first I was a little worried about our pitching staff, but by the time the first game rolled around I had great confidence in our pitchers."

No great weaknesses were cited by Mr. Henry. One weakness that has hurt previous years has been the weather. "If the weather is good before games and before the season, then we will have a good star t toward a good season," said Mr. Henry. Sou thea st Was Mr. Henry's pick to take city. Yet he was optimistic. "East can become a good ball club onc e we get a few wins under our belt." Head Coa ch Mr. Joh n Henry, Junior Varsity Coa ch Hugh T roshynski, and Sophomore Coa ch Frank McEntarffer all helped make a good season. Stud ent teachers assisting were Dick Anderson and Joh n Gingery. Varsity Baseball Schedule Date April 2 5 11 14 19 21 12 26 28-29 May 2 7 11 12 13-20 23-24

lntramurals Chance To Prove Ability Intramurals get more competitive each year at Lincoln East, according to many of the participants in the program. This year many talented seniors were involved in intramurals. Faculty members Mr. Gene Hendrichs, Mr. Hugh Troshynski, Mr. Rudy Stoer and Mr. Roland Gast were the officials for the games. Mr. Hendrichs said, "I'm involved with intramurals because I enjoy working with the kids." He added, "The kids that don't make varsity or just want to have a good time are given the chance through intramurals." lntramurals gave some students a chance to prove their ability. Two seniors, Bob Mulvaney and Mark Carlson, who played intramurals last year, are now playing varsity basketball. From swimming to badminton, intramurals gave students the chance for exercise and enjoyment. Some went from varsity competition to intramurals because in intramurals there was de-

creased pressure and less commitment to formalized practices. "With a wealth of talent on varsity level competition, one can always look to intramurals," said Mr. Hendrichs. Lance Sutter and Craig Bohl both were cut this year and are now playing intramurals. Mr. Hendrichs cited the Sennheisers and Climax basketball teams as being excellent teams in this year's intramural basketball program. Girl's intramurals reached a new dimension. Boys and members of the . faculty joined to make coed badminton and volleyball teams. According to Sponsor Bonnie Nielson, the coed activities were a definite improvement. "The turnout was small at first, but since it was coed and with the faculty, intramurals turned out to be a great success.

Ex pe rie nc ed Ca st En ha nc es Musical "Bye Bye Birdie" was chosen in the spring of 1976 by the East Singers from the class of 1977 . According to Director Mr. Jon Peterson, the cast was more experienced than in past years. He was able to cast experienced acto rs in sup• porting roles. One singer said, " 'Bye Bye Birdie' was fun because each person did something different. They played their own character; and a lot of people got involved." Stud ent accompianist Lisa Warner said, "This musical really helped me because it increased my piano playing ability, and I met a lot of new people." The choreography was by East High alumni Kim Sweetman and Paula Mikelson. Mr. Pete rson said, "Student teacher Rusty Edwards was a big help."

Senio rs' Sparz an Wins Spirit Week Spirit Week was held February 14-18, with many activities scheduled for the annual event. Meetings were held at students' houses and also at school to prepare for class skits and decorations. Many other projects were also a part of the Spirit Week scene. One such project was the matching t-shirts worn by the Junior class. Junior Laura Bishop summed up Spirit Week by saying, "Sure Spirit Week is a lot of work, but with the fun and class unity you share in that week, it is well worth it." •The week's activities began with the class skits at a Tuesday pep rally and a trike race run through the halls and the courtyard of the school. Decorations were done on Wednesday of Spirit Week. The awards were presented at a Friday pep rally. Seniors swept the awards by winning first place skit, decorations and overall spirit awards, with Juniors capturing second place in all three categories. The seniors the~e was Sparzan, being patterned after the famous jungle ape-man. In their skit, a group of explorers were trapped by three unfriendly tribes of cannibals, each representing a different one of three Lincoln high schools. They had such names as the Knightuses, and the Manlinkas. Just as they were about to be cooked over a fire by the angry tribesman, the explorers were saved by Sparzan, who in the end shows the wrongdoers what •school spirit and pride really are. Senior John

I

Klaus played the role of Sparzan. Th~ Class of 78's theme for 1977 was Eastops Fables, being derived from the famous book of stodes, each witn a lesson to learn. In the Juniors skit, an old woman is sitting and telling her grandchildren some bedtime stories. The old woman was played by Denise Knezovich. As she told the stories they were each altered to get spirit across in some way. In the middle of the skit the old woman asked the childrep if they wanted to sing a song. When they start to sing, Juniors who were sitting in the stands joined in singing a song boasting of Junior spirit. The Sophomore's theme was Alice in Spiritland obtained from the wellknown children's story. Their skit was about a young girl named Alice, who searched for true spirit. She visited different places, each representing a different high school. She ends up in all kinds of different situations, including a strip poker game going on at Lincoln High's gathering. Finally, aided by the white rabbit, she finds true spirit at a victory party at East High. Students felt differently about the weeks activities. Junior Andy Fields said, "They ought to have more pei:, rallys during the year, because school spirit shouldn't be limited to one week out of the year." A senior boy said, "No matter which class wins or loses, Spirit Week is a time when all students get to show their pride in East High, and in that way no one really loses."

Bouwens Captures '77 Tricycle .Title Blazing to a first place finish, Fresh• man Scott Bouwens captured his second straight trike race title. In winning first place, Bouwens earned the $10.00 prize money. Sophomore Roger Shahani came in second, earning the second place prize of $5.00, and Seventh Grader Paul Gutgesell came in third for the prize of $5.00. The race was held on Wednesday of Spirit Week, Feebruary 16. When asked what the main purpose of the trike race was, Student Council President Donna Frerichs said, "The main purpose was to promote general spirit. We didn't have as much of a turnout as we had expected to get. Nine people signed up for the race with four of them finishing." There were a variety of "tricycles" competing, although some of the riders were not officially in the race. Sophomore John Bannister rode a unicycle, and one contestant had his own "corporation" backing him called the Prunes.

Roles Changed At Fourth Turnabout Once again the ladies had a chance to see what it was like to ask the gentlemen out, as the Fourth Annual Turnabout Dance was held on Friday, February 18, the last day of Spirit Week. Music was provided by the Elastic Band, with the music ranging from pop to boogie. Senior Tammi Mattox said, "It was fun and I liked the chance to ask a boy out for a change." Many of the couples went out to dinner before coming to the dance. There was a smaller turnout this year than in the past three years and no refreshments were provided. Cost of the dance was four dollars couple. As Senior Alan Maier said, "It's nice to sit back and let the girls worry about expense and whether or not they are going to be turned down. It lets them know how the guys feel the rest of the year."

Money was earned by selling concessions, having acar wash, and selling Spanish suckers. · They spent their money on new school uniforms. Many people didn't like the old uniforms. Discussing the new wardrobe, Jan e Kolar, head majorette, said, "We hope to keep the uniforms a tradition." Majorettes performed with the band at every show except the Pershing Marching Band Festival. At the first football game they did an indian dance to show the history of american dance. Keeping with tradition, the squad twirled with fire at the homecoming game. Fo r the first time, the majorettes performed at the Nebraska City Marching Band Contest. Along with the band, they received a superior rating. Above: Majorettes met first period, where they practiced and planned for shows. Right: Cyndi

Susie Borgalli and Peggy Olson were chosen co-heads. This was a change from previous years when there was only one head cheerleader. On e cheerleader said, "It really depends on who the people are, but this year, having coheads worked out better than last." Summer was spent getting to know each other at clinic. Varsity went to Lake Okoboji in Iowa, where they took districts, won the spirit award and spirit stick. Reserves went to clinic at Baker University in Baldwin, Kansas. They won a spirit stick also. Spartan Pride was ch os en as the theme for the year. Money was made by selling concessions, booster buttons, carnations, bells at Christmas, a car wash, pop bottle drive, and a garage sale.

East's Ten Ye ar s Th em e /o r Ann1:1al It has been ten years since East High opened, so "Te n Years of East High" was the theme for the 1977 Epic. The original plan was to have old pictures showing the school and students. The idea was dropped beca use of the difficulty finding pictures. The mos t experienced stud ents on staff, exce pt for photographers, had been on staff for one semester. According to advisor Dave Coufal, the staff worked well together, even though they were inexperienced at the beginning of the year. Not having a layout editor on staff mea nt each section editor had to draw his own layouts. This was a problem at deadlines because staffers frequently ran out of layout supplies. Paula Horner, academic section editor, sum med up everyone's feelings when she said, "Whoever named thes e "deadlines" sure knew what they were talking about. I don't know if I'll make it through the night."

Change was apparent in dress codes of past years. When East first opened, the code said males must be clean shaven and no jeans would be allowed. Women were to wear dresses and socks or hose. In 1968, the code was adjusted to allow males to wear mustaches that were neatly trimmed and socks and hose were no longer required. In 1969 women were allowed to wear pants. Since 1970 all dress codes have been removed. Now recommendations take the place of codes, and shoes are the only required apparel. In the spring of 1970, Dr. McGrew resigned to become Assistant Superintendent of Schools in Wisconsin. Mr. Jam es Huge was appointed principal. Mr. Huge was also an innovative principal. He started quarter courses, was instrumental in the development of the Advisor program, and helped dev~lop the card-pulling system. In 1972, Mr. Huge was offered a position at the University of Nebraska, but declined the offer. In 1976, he accepted the position of Superintendent of Schools in Casper, Wyoming. Now Dr. William Moss is the principal of East. He believes every student has the right to a good education. East has had a tradition of fine instructors and many course offerings. East High has also had a tradition of good sportsmanship. Though we didn't always win, we strove for perfection in all competition. This not only included sports, but also music, art, dramatics, and many othe r areas. We had the potential to achieve and we used it in all aspects of school life. As East continues into its second decade, we can reflect on the achievements of the past ten years and apply them to the goals of the future. Traditions have been established and will continue throughout the history of Lincoln East High School. 273
