To do something when there's nothing to do .. .that's the challenge. To deny and beat boredom is the test. Success is to have fun in a town where there's McDeath, Mingles or the movies, and the alternatives few.
The bookstores, humming with bestsellers, sexy romance novels and the roaring opera in the background to the tune of cash registers and flirting in the aisles with stockers and fellow browsers is rife.
Atmosphere is up for grabs and ultimately, for sale Clubs like Celebration, the supermarket, and Mingles sell noise, muzak, lights and the potential for finding new dates?
An old standby, the library, has always been a place to sit and talk over the latest fasions or sports craze while the more studious people study for tests or pretend to research the War of 1812 while they are actually contemplating asking that special girl out.
Shopping at the Centrum or Atrium while dreaming of buying that Rolex across the street for your father (or boyfriend) on tbe off chance that you win the Iowa Lotto or the M&M's million -dollar contest or you go on The Wheel · of Fortune to meet Vanna and happen to get the Big Prize .
Waving at people of the opposite sex while speeding on "O" and being chased by that particular party and wondering if that carfull from 69 county really could even begin to fulfill your wildest fantasies as promised while they sped by giggling or slapping each other on the back.
Sitting in the hall or roaming it during assistantships and study halls or just whenever a teacher will give you a pass out became a common amusement when the going got tough and time was short but the hour drug on. The key was not getting caught by a teacher or administrator on their way to the lounge for the best cup of mud fifteen cents can buy.
Creating fun from blank time creates certain memories filled with imagination and creativity during a Year in the MakinQ.

The 1987-88 fashion scene reflects the whims of New York and Parisian designers. From frivolous and sophisticated to dashing and debonaire.
However, most Northeast students created their own definitions of fashions , fads, and fun.
For girls , the mini-skirt returned to take on new definitions, as well as shapes.
The styles this year mixed some of the old classic looks with some of the new contemporary looks And Northeast girls added a few looks of their , own.
For the guys, there was a little bit of everything. Denim made a big comeback, and we're not just talking about jeans. Denim wear included everything from hats to shirts .
Like clothes, music is also an important part of a student's lifestyle . Choosing a favorite rock group can be just as trivial as trying to decide which new : sweater to buy
This year's music scene saw more than 300 groups and artists. However, few made it past the Northeast doors.
Some of the more memorable artists included Janet Jackson with her hit album, "Control" We witnessed the return of the group, Boston, which made Lincoln a stop-over to help kick off their first U.S tour in over a decade. We also saw the resurfacing of the Irish rock group, U2.
But while many groups were "hot", others were hot.
Michael Jackson released a new album, but it didn't match up with "Thriller'' . His Royal Badness, Prince, released an album, but no number one singles.
The year also marked the tragic breakup of Wham! and the almost total disappearance of Duran Duran George Michael proved that you don't need to be backed by a group in order to make it big. There were a lot of solo artists out there in music land.

Where do teens spend most of their time other than school? Your first guess would probably be at work. For most high school students that is one of their first steps towards the future
Why do so many teenagers work? There are many reasons , but some of the most common are that jobs give students a sense of responsibili ty , belonging , and a li ttle taste of adulthood.
Besides some of the more psychological reasons , most students hold down part-time jobs for "material" reasons, too On top of the li st is so that the students can obtain money. Money for clothes , cars , dates , and for just pl ain old fun!
Out of the approximately 1 ,200 students at Northeast , almost half of them are employed in one way or anothe r \/\'.hat kinds of jobs are popular among full-time students? The average types of jobs held by students are those in fast-food and clothing stores. Those cover just a few of the areas of employment for teens
How do teens obtain jobs? Mostly just like an adult would do, and that is to look
in the want-ads of the local newspaper. It might be from word of mol!th. Most of the time fr i ends find friends jobs
It is not very easy finding a job , because it is a "dog-eat-dog world" out there
A big question is : How do students manage to hold down a part -time job, a~d keep up in six or seven classes? Thats easy. It takes super-teens.
At Northeast, there are a bunch of funloving and serious teens Students at Northeast know how to work hard, play hard, and study hard.
Northeasterners are dedicated to their work, not only to academics but to jobs as well . Work is a different wor ld for most teens It's a whole different environment. Students act differently at school than at work, because they are occasionally not surrounded by friends , but by other lessfamiliar peers . At work, you really have to o~ey "th~ laws of the land." Some teens hke their bosses , but most teens could really do w ithout them Many teens find that C?'!'municating with the boss can be as tnv1al as a game show

Dreams. We all know what they are, but what do they consist of?
Early in the school year, the yearbook staff distributed a survey. One of the questions asked students what their wildest fantasy has been. Dream a while, we asked the students.
For senior Tim Snyder, his fondest , dream/fantasy is to 'Win a million dollar • lottery."
Snyder's dream of winning a huge amount of money is shared by many. As everyone knows, money plays a key role in the everday life of a high school student.
Looking at the future with some fear of the unknown might have caused senior Dan Byers' fantasy/dream. f Byers' wildest fantasy is to, "get paid without working." "
As indicated from responses, every student has his/her own unique dream and fantasy. And what makes the Rockets extraordinary is that many have such different goals and dreams for the future, which is just down the road and around the bend.
The Old Walt Disney shows used to end with that meaningful slogan: "When you wish upon a star, you never know, you might go far." The saying wasni meant just for the cartoon world. It can apply in real life, too.
Northeast students know about dreams and their individual plans to carry those dreams out.
That well-known phrase coined by a branch of the anned services, "Be all you can be" stretches fa, beyond the U S. military and into the halls of North"' High School.
What type of career do you dream of having some day?

Money. Something Northeast students use a lot of, especially during the school year.
Huge amounts of money are spent throughout every year For example, students spend money on lunches on or off campus, dances , yearbooks, pens, notebooks, activity tickets, pencils and the list goes on and on.
For most seniors, the list gets longer and longer. Graduation announcements , class rings, thank-you cards, and senior photos are all extra expenses .
Also, for all other students who are involved with other activities in school , the list grows also. Since you are expected to buy sweatshirts, uniforms or even musical instruments, being a high school student
Top: Movies never go out of style, and prices remained steady throughout the year.
Then , just when you think your expenses have ended, and you have some spare change in your pocket, along comes the weekend Gas for the car, a movie, a game, a date, shopping, and other activities can add up to an expensive two days.

Friendship is one of the many opportunities high school students have during their three years at Northeast. Friends are important to Northeast students.
Friends are the people you can tell your darkest secrets to, share all your dreams and fantasies with A friend is one who will always be by your side to care when no one else does . For seniors , when they grasp for that diploma , changes occur. Do they think there will actually be enough time to sincerely keep in touch with friends?
Some friends will stay close forever, and some will simply slip
away as they begin careers and seek out new friendships .
For senior Renzo Zanelli, friendship means: "Someone who accepts you the way you are, and someone you can do crazy things with."
For junior Jim Toomey, it means: "When you love and care about somebody, and having that somebody as your friend."
For senior Kelly Mook, memories will remain. "I will be sad because my friends will be going to different schools and in different directions, but glad that I won't have to dodge the sophomores any more."
For Northeast students, the memories of friendships will remain with them from day one. Friendships nurtured at Northeast will endure the time and distance that might come between them. And they will never be forgotten.

Star Strutters, a drill team known throughout Northeast, sparkled as they performed and promoted school spirit at the many athletic events . A total of eighteen hard working young ladies mak ing and perfecting the ir own routines Not only , does one have to tryout to be a strutter, they have to maintain a 4 0 grade po int average and have all passing grades. There is much time and dedication involved in being a Star Strutter
"The pressures which are put upon us are tremdous, it's not rare that we have to make up our own rout ine and perfect it in only one week and then too
24/Star Strutters
perform on a Friday night , but it really is a lot of fun ," responded jun ior strutter Diana Trouba Besides promoting school spirit , and perform ing in the many different school activities , the squad took part in the community The Star Strutters performed at UNL , basketball games and Wesleyan games The squad also helped raise money for muscular distrophy by doing a Kick - a-thon Also in the summer time the team went to camp in Lawerence , Kansas for the American Drill Team School, the girls won the all around trophy The squad also recieved straight superiors with the band during the football season .
Mrs Bishop enjoyed working with this years varsity cheerleaders
"They were a good group to work with and were very cooperative We had no majorprobelms! The number of girls who tried out dropped this year , but this did not affect the quality of the squad ," stated sponsor Mrs . Bishop
According to Mrs . Bi shop part of the probelm of not having that many girls tryout was because the star strutters tryout proceeded t he cheerleader tryout and most girls were mo re interested in being a star strutter. This year though the cheerleader tryouts will proceed the star strutter tryout.
During the summer, the cheerleaders attended a camp in Kearney Learn ing new cheers was a part of their tra ining but more importantly the girls developed a sense of self confidence and a pos itive mental attitude . The girls also met cheerleaders from other schools across the state .
Throughout the year, cheerleaders helped sponsor a number of events and fund raisers As usual, they were invo lved in homecoming and spirit week Over the summer they had a car wash and later in the year sold Chrs itmas ornamen t s
Michelle Schriner thought cheerleading was a very rewarding experience
"Mrs Bishop is very cooperative , understanding and was a very good sponsor Cheerleading was a good learning experience since we learned to cope with others ' attitudes and values and learned how to compromise w ith them."
The Reserve cheerleaders led the way for Northeast's numerous games and activities They were constantly seen cheering with the varsity cheerleaders at pep rallies and during district and state basketball games.
"Nobody knows what it is like to cheer for blank faces," stated Kristi Wienke
Being a cheerleader as you know takes up a lot of time and hard work . The reserves start the ir practices to perfect their cheers at the begining of seventh period Also during the summerthey put in overtime working on the i r cheers Spirit week was also another activ ity the reserve cheerleaders particpated in
"Although being a cheerleader takes up a lot of time it was def i nately worth all the effort and time that was put in ," responded Jenn ie Brym .
"I made friends that I will have forever I think thats really spec ial ," replied sophomore cheerleader Tiffanie Rapp • Everybody that has been a sophomore knows how hard it is at the begining of the school year. It's even harder being i n a school activity , like cheerleading
Cheerleading proved to be more popular with the sophomores than the juniors or seniors More then 50 girls tried outforthe squad and only 1O of those girls actually made it.
"There's a lot of practice i n being a cheerleader more than most other students think, " stated sophomore cheerleader Becky Stake
One has to be quick , as well as having the skills to perfect a routine in a small amount of time. The sophomore cheerleaders practice two or three times a week to work on their routines . Most of the cheerleaders have to be very flex ible, as well as maintaining a goo d grade point average.
The sophomore cheerleade rs helped the Spirit Club , and the varsity and reserve cheerleaders with sp i rit week and many of the pep rallies
"It was a good group of girls to work with We appreciated Mrs Bishop's guidance and support as she helped us make a lot of difficult decisions ," comments Tr ic ia Young.
Triple Trio is a group that sets by itself, in Northeast's music department. The group usually consists of approximately 12 senior and junior girls. This year however, Triple Trio ended up with only nine seniors The group is sponsored by Mrs. Oestmann.
Trying out for Triple Trio has very few qualifications, although one important aspect is being able to blend well with others.
Triple Trio performed at various events within the school and state. They included the Northeast Holiday Assembly, the Music Department's Soup and Supper, the Norfolk Choir Festival, and a performance at the Cornhusker.
"It's a smaller organization that allows an individual's talent to come out. A lot of schools don't have an all girls chorus I think we showed that you don;t have to have a mixed chorus to have talent," stated Kim Prososki.
This year 17 seniors and juniors and one sponsor , Mrs Oestmann , represented the Northeast Sw ing Choir
The group sings a variety of music , including jazz , Broadway, swing and pop
Choreography and singing as a group is an important role for the choir.

Another performance included in LaMars, Iowa where they earned second place The choir also made performances at Peru State College and the All City Swing Choir Contest.
"It's a social organization that appeals to people because it deals with higher degrees of music with choreography," stated member Matt Landis
Being a member of Chamber Singers means devoting a lot of time and effort into the group to get good results back. The members of Chamber Singers worked hard to achieve good results .

The club sponsored by Spanish teacher Shirley Rine , did experience some ups and downs One of the hardest task was trying to keep a full regiment of officiers , since some graduated at mid term and others found their time limited
The clubs membership , was still larger then the year before which indicated an interest in the group.

Suzanne Noe, a senior , has been involved in swing choir for two years and is enrolled in her fourth year of French this year. Suzy hopes to visit France after she has learned a little more about it Suzy spends most of her time listening to Mozart, reading , and playing her bass quitar.
Out of school Suzy spends her time in her band, The Private Kangaroo , they got together in her sophomore year. At first they did cover songs and then they went on to create their own music Suzy's first musical show was at her sister's wedding reception last year and they are currently on a local tape with other bands
"I always wanted to make my own music, and I was
ecstatic when I learned that we were going to be on tape, because most of the other bands were college bands and 3/4 of mine were still in high school ," commented Suzy
Suzy would really like to have a career in music but it is so competitive these days that she need something to fall back on if her band isn't very successful.
Much of Suzy's time is spent at her job at American Love Affair T-shirt store where she works on weekends and during the weekdays it is spent on homework
"Hopefully after high school I will spend more time with the band and working on the music, " commented Suzy.

-Brian Merritt
"I think one of the highlights of my life was my trip to Hong Kong and the Phillipines," commented Brian
Brian went to Hong Kong and the Phillipines for a summer working in children's programs, sharing in the churches and working with the refugee boat people in the Harbour of Hong Kong
"I was ashamed that we wasted and take for granted the abundance we have when they value highly the very little that they have," statec Brian.
The people of Hong Kong would talk to Brian and his group for houn discussing all about America and it's people
"The people of Hong Kong loved Americans and they thought we wen all rich."
Brian's trip to the Phillipines was "bumpy". He also traveled on a boa similiar to the Titanic which killed thousands in the earty 1920's.
Brian's future plans include going on a mission and moving out of thi country someday.
"I would like to go to Hong Kong because it's a hip hoppin place."

Harmony Voorhies is a NE senior with a diverse field of interests She tempers her academic interest with activities in music and Girl Scouts.
Academically, Harmony has constantly remained in the top 3% of her class
"I enjoy mathematics and science courses, but then again, I also feel that english and language courses because of the communications they bring about," stated Harmony.
Concertmistress of the NE orchestra, Harmony is a talented violinist who represents Northeast in the Lincoln Youth Symphony as leader of the 2nd violin section . Harmony will play a solo with the orchestra in the spring, the content of which has yet to be decided. Harmony has also learned how to play the cello, viola, and slide whistle.
"I most enjoy playing small group music such as classical or modern. I'll listen to and play almost any kind of music, I'm really
not particular," commented Harmony
Girl Scouts has been an interest of Harmony's for the past seven years.
"Girl Scouts has given me many opportunites . I've been to Switzerland, caving, and rockclimbing," expressed Harmony. Harmony has worked with a Brownie troop(1st through 3rd graders) for two years now, which was educational for both sides.
This summer Harmony is planning on going to an Internationa l camp in Austria. She has also applied for a trip to the Antarctica for the purpose of scientific research which is supported by the Girl Scouts.
Harmony doesn't yet know where she intends to attend college or even what her true major will be
"My major interests now lie in science and math, but these interests may change completely in the next couple of years. I'm trying to get as wide a backgroud as possible, just in case," stated Harmony.

"What spare time," responded Julie Ogden
Sometimes Julie wishes there were more hours in a day. In the little time she does have to herself she likes to sew , cook or go out with her friends.
Much of Julie's time is spent in sports Julie participated in volleyball at Mickle and now is on the team here at Northeast.
She has played volleyball ever since she was in seventh grade

Those students who sat in his classes will long remember h i s booming voice, and his friendly smile. They will also remember the many times Mr Sweem would sit and listen to students. Listen to their successes and their problems.
Much can be learned from Mr. Sweem's pos itive outlook on life and the caring attitude he showed to all of his students.
We take comfort in the fact that a part of him will continue to live, reflected in the lives of the students he has instructed and guided over the years . During that time we came to know him as a person of intelligence and integrity, always eager to help, whose life and career were, indeed, an inspiration_to us all.

" I felt I played well, especially since I played at a new position. It took me 3 or 4 games to get established."
-Nate Johnson
Football to Senior Nate Johnson means fun and good times, but is also means a lot of hard work
Johnson got started in football when he was in sixth grade, and he
has been play ing ever since. He enjoys the sport a lot and has plans to play in college if possible However, he sees himself spending more time hitting the books Johnson comments on his des ire to work harder at his classes "I want to establ i sh myself academically first. Football • would come i n second," said Johnson.
He feels this last football season went very well for him , personally. "I felt I played well , especially considering that I played at a new position," sa id Johnson In fact he played well enough at defensive end to make allc ity But it wasn 't easy It took a lot of practice and improvement to perfect his performance "It took me 3 or 4 games to establ ish myself at the position ," Johnson explained.
Although he was pleased with his personal performance, he felt the team could have done better over all. "We had the talent to go to the playoffs, but didn't play hard enough atthe beginning of the season." Johnson thought they played together well , especially against Ralston, but he especially enjoyed the teams attitude. "We kept our spirit and took pride in whatever we did !"
"The players stayed together through the whole season, even after disappointments and hard losses."

Northeast's varsity football team had a bumpy-road type season.
After opening the season with a 21-12 win over Hastings, the Rockets lost three straight games All of the losses were by close margins
"The close games were heartbreakers for us," commented junior lineman David Noonan.
The matchup between Northeast and Lincoln High has always carried a competitive edge, but this season's game seemed even more so than the past.
Northeast held a 1S-7 lead over the Links with about 6 minutes left in the game, but a fumble led to a Links' touchdown for the tie, then Lincooln High won the game in overtime, 18-15
In their next two games, Northeast was blown out of the tub Grand Island claimed a 35-0 win, then Northeast suffered its worst defeat in 16 years when it lost to Southeast, 41--0
The Rockets were at their lowest point of the season following the Southeast game, but the squad regrouped.
"The players stayed together through the whole season,• Noonan said, •even after disappointments and hard losses."
The Rockets rebounded with 9-7 win over Lincoln East, but then dropped another heartbreaker, losing 31-28 in triple overtime to Norfolk.
Northeast, coached for the second straight season by Bruce Reed , then closed out the campaign by defeating Ralston, 39-7. The Rockets finished with a 3-6 record
They both ended with winning seasons. The Sophomores only losing to East and the Reserves only falling to Southeast and Grand Island.

The Rocket Reserve Football team ended the season with a 6-2 record.
The J.V.'s started out with 3 consecutive wins They went into overtime againest LHS and pulled out a 13 -12 win . Againest East they won 8-0 mainly due to their defense "Defense is definately our strong point,• Junior Jon Pearl said. ·we all help each other, so we have very few mistakes."
Their fourth game could have won them a city championship but they were shut-out 0-20 by Southeast. The loss was mainly due to turn-overs.injuries to team, and a bigger defensive line by SE.
Despite the loss againest SE, the Reserves went on to beat LHS again, Bellevue East and Beatrice
For the Soph football team like the Reserves, defense played a major part in their victories Soph. Jason Pflughaupt says •our defense has been the key to our success all season."
On their first game they beat Papillion 34-14. They foHowed with wins over SE, LHS and the Norris Reserves.
The Soph's then whipped the Waverly J.V.'s 42-6. This was the 3rd straight year the NE Soph's have defeated them JI was a game of many fumbles !or Waverly , and many recoveries for NE. (6 recovered out of 1O fumbled.)
But their chance for a perfect season was taken away by a 026 loss to East. It was a hard loss to accept, but the players are looking forward to next year. ·we don't like to lose. No one does Therefore, as a team, we will all work harder, pushing ourselves to do our best next year.· says Soph Eric Schneider.
They entered the state tournament with remberences of past failures. Their goal to make it past the first round. They were successful, just one step away from their dream. They fell just short. Yet, they were proud to be state runners-up.

Although the Rockets made the finals of the state tourney this year, Northeast failed to pass the first round in the previous two years. Members of the team who played both this year and in years past expressed their feelings about the many differences the seasons held.
Senior Stacey Engelbart, who played for the Rockets for three years, felt that this year the team had a higher level of concentration. "We entered the state tournament with a high intensity level.• said Engelbart, "Our last game of the season was close. We won districts by beating East. Since we were on a winning streak we thought we might as well go all the way."
Senior Kim Grosshans, also a three year member, felt that districts was the key to the teams success this year.
Grosshans said, "Last year we played Columbus, who we hadni played before. This year we knew more about the teams. Districts had a lot to do with our attitude for state since we beat East."
One aspect of the season that the team couldni control! was very different. The parents. Three year member Senior Andee Walek expressed her feelings on the subject.
"The parents helped out a lot. They made signs and got shirts." said Walek, "They were always at our games. The season wouldni have been the same without them "
Engelbart agreed that the teams parents were very supportive. Engelbart said, "There was a huge amount of support from the parents They were really intense. During state some were wearing black headbands made out of streamers and had numbers painted on their face."
The mood was one of guarded optimism entering the season. Both the reserves and the sophomores showed promise. They were successful. Improved game knowledge enabled both teams to finish with winning records.

The reserve and sophomore volleyball teams both posted winning records this year. The sophomores improved greatly, bettering last years 3 -9 finish by 5 wins with an 8-7 record. The reserves did even better This year they finished w ith a strong 10-5 record, topp ing last year's losing 6-8 season by a large margin.
The highlight of the reserves year was fin ishing second in the LPS Tournament. Coach Brenda Ward commented on the tourney Ward said, •we went in with the best record We were the top seed It was sort of our reward for having such a good record We , lost to East in the finals. We had played them twice before and split. I knew it would be close We won the first set and lost the next two."
The Rockets lost to East 15-5, 0-15, and 6-15. Ward commented on the margin of defeat in the second set. Ward said, -We were going good in the f irst set, but lost the second one badly It took the steam out of us for the third set."
The Rocket reserves beat all the Lincoln teams twice except for East. The only Rocket losses in the year came to Bellevue East, Norris , Southeast, and two to East.
Ward felt this year 's team did so well because of their improved game •smarts• "This y ear's tearti'."- was strong in the knowledge of the game•, said Ward -We were able to run more complex offenses and defenses. We were also able to run a much larger number of plays than normal."
The sophomores did almost as well as the reserves. The Rockets finished with an 8-7 record with two impressive victories over Lincoln High
They started the season with four straight losses, but an amazing comeback allowed them to end the season with the first winning record since 1982.

The Northeast Netters started out their season like every other year, with four straight losses including a shutout to Lincoln Southeast. This may have caused most teams to give up, but the Rockets didn't let it get them down "Our schedule was set so we had to play all the powerhouses starting out; Fremont, East, and Southeast," Coach Jim Rathe commented He used this to lift up the team's spirits along with setting up some long range goals, one of which was to have a winning season.
The pep talks paid off, allowing the Netters to reach that goal and end the season with a dual record of 5-4. The Rockets then went on to state and were again successful taking twelfth out of twenty-three teams "Everyone played up to their capabilities We really fielded a competitive team." said Rathe.

Three more winning factors were returning letterers Josh Trambly, Lance Fryrear, and Alan Hald. "The experience of these three along with the general athletic ability, and great parent support really made a difference," said Rathe. A difference that separated them from all the team's since 1982
"I'll keep on coaching them as long as they keep asking me back."
-R.T. Weidman
By Dorothy Groothuls 1988 ROCKET Sports Editor
To many Northeast students, the name R.T. Weidman is unfamiliar.
But to the few reserve tennis players, it is a name associated with dedication. Eleven years of dedication through volunteer coaching of boys and girls tennis.
Weidman became interested in tennis when he was in the sixth grade and his father sent away for a tennis racket.
Weidman and a friend spent hours on the court since, as Weidman puts it "there wasn't anything else to do in the summer."
He pursued his tennis interest by playing for the University of Nebraska.
His interest in coaching came later, however. Weidman's daughter, Wendy, was a tenrt i~ player at Northeast High Schodl where she was named a high school All-American. During her high school career, Weidman saw the need for additional coaching help, so he volunteered his time.
-He has continued to volunteer ever since, because he enjoys working with kids. Weidman said it pleases him to see how much each of his players improve from daily practices.
The practice paid off for Weidman and his players, as they captured the city reserve title.
Northeast may not be the dominant team in the city in tennis, but the Rockets are the dominant team in Weidman's heart.
"I enjoy the Northeast kids, and I'll keep on coaching them as long as they keep asking me back,· he said.
They started the season with a slow start and ended with several crucial injuries, but scattered victories in between and a tenth place finish at state by Amy Attenberger allowed the Rocket runners to keep their pride .
"I was ecstatic when I learned that I had qualified for state."

The Northeast Cross Country teams walked proud despite a disappointing f inish in the district meet. The squad got off to a slow start at the NWU Invitational, but auicklv ac122/C ross Country
celerated to the front of the pack, pass ing by East.
After the Fremon t meet was washed out, the Rockets fell back to a low f inish at the Harold Scott Invite.
W i ns over Norr is and Beatrice followed , but inj uries hampered the squad at the Greater Nebraska Conference Meet as the team fin ished last.
The Attenbergers both fin ished in the top ten at the district meet, and Amy qualified for the state meet.
Amy took home the glory at the state meet , finish i ng tenth , appropriately enough for a tenth grader
" I was ecstat ic when I learned that I had qualified for state," Amy sa id "It was exciting runn i ng w ith the other top runners . I was happy to f inish in t he top ten ."
The boys' chances were dealt a cr ippling blow when Tom Ahlschwede, Nate Lane, and Mike Brehm suffered leg injuries that kept them out of the last hal f of the season
"I saw cross country as a way to turn my good endurance into a chance to run well for my school."
-Dave Attenberger
Althogh senior Dave Attenberger has only been running cross country for two years he was one of Northeast's best ever. After retiring from a career of tenth grade football he decided to go out for cross country . Cross country was a good choice becuase he had run track during junior high. "I always liked running in the three kilometer and five kilometer runs held all over the city. I saw cross country as a way to turn my good endurance into an chance to run well for my schoo l." said Attenberger.
Attenberger ran over three hundred miles to stay in shape for the season Running on a regular basis helps Attenberger in other sports such as basketball. "Running has built up my endurance, it not only helps me in basketball, but also in track.", said Attenberger
Competiton this year was fierce. Onlytworunnersoffofboth the girls team and boys teams finished in the top ten at districts. Dave And Amy Attenberger were the top two runners Dave finished tenth, not high enough to qualify him for state. His sister Amy was the only Rocket to make state. She finished sixth at districts Dave said, "I was surprised that I even finished tenth. Although I didn't get to state I was happy to see that all of my hard work did mean something."
As for plans for college running Attenberger remains undecided. Attenberger said, "I have to dec ided if I want to give up a lot of my precious spare time in college. The competition will undoubtably be much greater than at the high school level."

The Northeast girls' gymnastics team may have had a disappointing win-loss record, but upcoming years' look promising, which provides some consolation.
The 1987 version of the Rocket squad suffered througha season of chronic injuries, a lack of gymnasts , and a lack of experience.
Senior Michelle Schriner commented on the youthful look of this year's squad :
"We did pretty good considering how young our team was. We had two freshman and only two seniors. It was kind of a trying-out year,• Schriner said.
Injuries were one of the main factors that held the team back. The team was at full strength just once during the entire season
"It was exciting to have an actual whole team for one meet," Schriner said before catching herself in midsentence "well, half-ameet_. someone got injured during

The Northeast boys' gymnaslics 1eam slat18d out its l8880fl with a lot of doubt
Senior Ruben Cebalos, one of the top high school gymnasts in Nebraska , had made the decision not to go out for the 1987 Rocket 18am so he could devote more time to club gxmnastics. Andy Donovan, anolher senior letlllrman , said lhe decision by his teammate had an affect on the '9am
"One of the handcaps was , when Ruben didn't go out at first, we felt we didn't have a real good chance,. Donovan said Ceballos lalar changed his mind aftl9r his club coach persuaded him lo participate in both school and club gymnastics.
Although lhe Rockets got Ceballos back, 1hey were still a young team, with only three seniors and one junior.

For the second consecutive year Northeast's boys basketball team was o~ top of the ratings at a time when few observers expected the squad to be there.
Josh Trambly and T.J Ochsner returned with the most experience , but the Rockets played like a seasoned team under second -year head coach Rick Collura Northeast, led by Lesoing and Ochsner , also showed a lot of ability to hit the three-point shot , which was introduced to Nebraska high school basketball for the first time
Northeast lost only once , to Lincoln High , in the regular season wh il e post ing a 17- 1 record Goi ng into the district tournament, the Rockets were No 1 in the Linco ln Journal-Star.
After defeating Southeast in a Monday night game , the Rockets suffered th ei r second loss of the se ason to the Links i n the district title game on Tu esday eve ning.
However , because of its record , the Rockets moved into the state tournament for the third stra ight year , this time via the w il d card afte r two straight di str ict titles
A -pair of big wins against Columbus and Norfolk highlighted the regular season
Despite being behind in the third penod, Northeast rallied and beat Co lumbus , 69-67, in front of a sellout crowd at Ed Johnson Gym The Discoverers were toprated before the loss
Two games later, the Rockets were able to avenge last season 's state title loss to Norfolk by defeating the Panthers 77-73 , in overtime , on the road
" It was a tough game ," Rank commented "It was tough to beat them on the road , especia ll y with all of the crowd noise ."
The three-point shot was never more important than in the Rockets' fina l game against Millard South , ranked No 1 by the Omaha World-Herald
With only seconds left in regulation , Leso i ng hit a three -pointer to send the game into overtime The momentum of the shot carried over and Northeast won the game, 54-52
"It was a big disappointment com i ng so close all three years and still not winning state, but It was a big accomplishment and I'm proud of what we achieved "

Sports have played a major part in Josh Trambly 's life. Throughout his .high school years, he has been involved in baseball, football, tennis and basketball
"I don't play baseball or football any more," the senior said. "But I want to continue playing basketball and tennis in college. It all depends on where I go."
The 1987-88 basketball season was satisfying and fulfilling for Trambly. He was named to the first team All-City and AllState basketball teams, and was on the second team of the Super State squad.
"I felt really good about how I performed, and I had a lot of fun along the way ," Trambly said
Trambly started playing basketball at the age of 7
"I lived right across the street from a court so friends and I would go over and shoot baskets when we d idn't have anything else to do," Trambly said.
This season marked Trambly's third straight trip to the state tournament. The Rockets advanced to the second round in his sophomore yea r before losing to Omaha Northwest, then fell to Norfolk in the 1987 Class:A championship game. This season, Trambly's Northeast career ended with a first - round loss to Omaha Benson.
The state tourney exper iences left Trambly with a variety of emotional feelings.
"It was a big disappointment, com in g so close all three years and still not winning state," Trambly said But , it was a big accomplishment and I'm proud of what we achieved."
When people ask what do cheerleaders do? It's an honor to say support a team like you
It ' s easy to see we're two different "teams", Two groups of people with all the same dreams.
In the beginning we hoped to win our first game , Weekend after weedend we wanted the same .
That's how we felt all season through , and then what do you guys decide you should do?
You give us the honor of going to state We may not have took it, but we sure played great.
Although dreams were dampered and goals set aside , a team like yours is worth every tear cried .

The Lincoln Northeast boy's basketball team started their journey to state on leap year day. The Rockets entered districts as the top ranked team with a near perfect 17-1 record , flawed only by a 5057 loss to Lincoln High, which was later ave nged
The first match-up in districts for Collura's cagers was to 8-12 Lincoln Southeast. After nearly three quarters of domination by Northeast, the Knights came back to take a brief lead Southeast continued to fight , but the Rockets ended up on top 46-42, clinching the victory with a layup by junior Aaron Griess w ith 15 seconds left in the game
The Rockets next challenge was against long time rival No 5 Lincoln High in the dis trict finals. The game seesawed between the two Lincoln schools, leaving no more than a 6 point spread throughout the game Northeast led 4645 in the final seconds when a foul by Rodney Bradley gave Lincoln High's Eric Priebe two free throws. Priebe sunk both shots to allow the Links to win 47-46 over Northeast.
The road to state didn't end at districts , however. Due to a wild card berth the Rockets were allowed to enter state as the No. 3 seed, playing the ir first game against sixth seed Omaha Benson , whom they had beat 53-51 in an earlier game Senior Josh Trambly comments on this victory "We didn't play very good against them , but we still beat them. Wo figured if we could play normal at state we could beat them aga in ."
The Rockets started out strong against the Bunnies. "We started off great, butthen we let down. We letthem get back in it," commented Trambly.
The Rockets let down long enough for Benson to get a seven point advantage over the Rockets in the third quarter The tables turned and the Rockets rallied to take a 48-46 lead Shots were scored by both teams until a 3 point play by Senior Dan Lesoing tied the game at • 54-54 with 12 seconds to go Seven seconds later the Bunnies hit a free throw to win the game 55-54, and end Northeast's season 18-3
The loss came as a shock to many Northeast students as well as to the players "We knew what we had to do to win and we knew we could do it, but we weren't able to physically carry it out." said Lesoing. •

The boys reserve basketball team proved to itself and everyone else ihat they could stand their own against bigger teams and win
"We proved that we were as good as or better than the best JV teams in the state ," commented junior Greg Gottberg "We knew how to win the close games and win in overtime."
The JV Rockets' talent helped th e team win its first three games, before the only loss of the season, a - 61-48 setback to Lincoln High
"We had to press hard to handle the ball and our defense was not up to its usual standards," Gottberg sai d of the lone loss. "We also didn't get th e turnovers."
But the loss failed to discourage the team The Rockets went on to bea t Lincoln East, 68-64 in overtime after outscoring the Spartans 5-1 in the extra period
"We always find a way to win ," Eric Lowe said. "When we were behind we knew what had to be done and we fought back."
Th e high point of the season came in the last game of the campaign Northeast avenged last seas on's loss to the Indians' JV squad with a 76-70 overtime win
Coach Doug Kaltenberger's team fin ished the 87-88 season with a 15-1 record, which tied the all-time school JV record.
The sophomore team didn't fare quite as well , although Coach Lynn Schoening's squad did finish with a respectable 8-4 record.
After losing their first game of the season to East, 64 -57 , the sophs came back to claim a triple overtime win over Lincoln
"We were able to hold on and win despite the fact that most of the starters were fouled out," Mike Einsphar said of the win over the Links
The sophs went on to a winning season, losing only to Pius X and Southeast for the remainder of the schedu le.
"I felt we accomplished a lot of our goals and the team worked well together," Einsphar said.
It was a season that started out well, winning their first four games. Then they strugled to maintain a .500 record. The team finnaly bloomed against Beatrice in a School record 78-33 win. It ended with a dismal district loss to Southeast. Despite the fatal ending the team shows promise for next year. They are

This years varsity girls basketball team road a rollercoaster ride that ended with a loss in the district tournament to the top team in the state, Lincoln Southeast.
After opening w ith four st r aight wins , the team settled into a seasaw battle around 500. Then midseason lightning struck them and they caught fire , ripping winless Beatrice by the colossal sco re of 78 -33. The 78 points were the most in the history of the Northeast g irls basketball team. " It felt great. " said Junior Kim Vokolek "It was a great acompl ishment for a girls team to score that many points ."
The Rockets first opponet at districts was winnless Beatrice. Beatrice didn't pose much oi a threat to the Rockets , as Northeast beat them by the score 54-34. "Beatrice wasn't very good. We were sure we could beat them ." said Vokolek Their second opponet in districts was state champ Southeast. South-

Her elementa ry grade basketball team foreshadowed th ings to come. Her team was ca ll ed the Rockets However , Bouwens d idn 't sta rt playing on acompet itve level untill she reached the nin t h grade at Mickel.

Bouwens plays both center and forw ard ,pos istions under the hoop Some would t hink that she went ou t fo r basketball becuase of her unusual he igh t, unusually tall t hat is Bouwens exp lained , " I don't th ink I went out because of my he ight. I think that my brothers and fam il y influenced me to play more than anyth i ng " said Bouwens
Bouwens played reserve vo lleyba ll in her sopomore year but gave it up for basketball. She felt t hat basketball came easier fo r her. " In volleyball you have to work more At least I did I didn't know the game that we ll. Basketball just seemed to come naturally to me. " said Bouwens
The one thing that made basketball worth while for Bouwens was her interaction with other people. Bouwens sa id, "I got to meet d iff erent people and be a pa rt of a team I got to know the coaches real well , and became fr iends with the younger girls on the team .".
Although Bouwens didn't get to state in her junior year, or her f ina l year as a Rocket she still contributed to the team. Bouwens described what it was like her j unior year "My junior ye ar was a good exper ience even though I didn 't play much It helped be i ng around an older team I learned every game " said Bouwens
his year was a disappointing one. Both teams posted losing records. In the games they forgot what they had learned in practice. Yet they still played as a team and improved throughout the season. Even though they didn 't live up to expectations they are still earned the right to be called. ...

The reserve and sophomore girl s basketball teams posted fairly dissapointing seasons this year. The reserve team ended up 6-10 , but the sophomores only managed to attain one victory and fini shed wit h a 1-8 record.
The re serve season started off slowly. After their _ first five contests th ey we re just 1-4. Northeast battled back and were on the verge of breaking the .500 mark when t hey were narrowly defeat ed by Grand Island
The rest of the season had it's highs and lows but freethrows cost the Rockets down the stretch as they lost three games by a very sli m marg in
Sophomore Lisa Ahlman expressed her feelings on the teams improvements. Ahlman said, "We im proved the most on freethrows. We lost some games by just a few points early in the seaon and that really hurt us."
Jun ior Julie Ogden, who played for the reserves last year also , felt their were differences between the two teams "This year we got along as a team and played as a team." said Ogden, "Last year we didn't get along. This year it was fun."
The sophomores got their only win of the season over Lincoln High 39-38 The Rockets were on the verge of their second victory lead ing t he Links by 7 at halftime Northeast only scored three po int s in the second half and lost 19-24
• Lori Holy, sophomore, expressed her feelings about the teams problems Holy said, "We were good at the beginning of the year in practice. We were supposed to be one of the best teams Northeast had ever had at the sophomore level. However, when it came around to game time I think we just forgot what we had learned".
Hard work and dedication paid off for both teams, improving the records of both from last year, sending several representatives to state, and breaking many school records.
"I enjoyed seeing members of the team not Just winning, but breaking school records."

Due to the lack of interest in past years, Northeast is not the first school that comes to mind in the area of swimming. This year proved to be a new beginning for the Rockets, however, starting out with a team of more than 50 people, including many from last year.
Junior Karen Stolzer was proud of this years turnout. "We were able to show others that Northeast swimming is a program that is really improving and showing much potential for the future," said Stelzer.
The dual record alone is proof of this potential. The girls improved their 2-7 record from last year to 3-6 and the boys went from a 4-10 record to a winning 7-2. For senior Jody Hansen the winning record was the best part of the season: "It was g~eat beating all those teams, exat_pt for East and Southeast,• said Hansen. East and Southeast were the only teams to def eat the Rocket boys, outscoring them 113-59 and 98-70 respectively.
For Stolzerthe highlight of the season included more than winning. •1 enjoyed seeing members of the team not just winning, but breaking school records,"said Stelzer "It 1·ust proves that the hard work ear yin the season was really worth It.•
The hard work payed off for many of the swimmers, includin9 the 15 who were able to participate in state, 4of whom placect in the top 8. Top performances at state included a third place finish in the 100 backstroke and a fifth place in the 200 freestyle bv sophomore Jenny Baus, a sixth in the 500 freestyle by freshman Abra Holtzer, an eighth in the 100 breaststroke bV Senior Diann Carr, a seventh in the 200 freestyle and a fifth in the 100 backstroke by Jody Hansen The boys finished tenth out of 18 teams at state and the girls finished seventh out of 21.

Despite a poor showing in state , expectations rema i n high for next year Only Neal is graduating from t he li st of state qual if i ers and next years team starts with a wealth of experience
"Wrestling brought out my desire to achieve "
--Marcus Neal
By Dave Attenberger 1988 Rocket Sports Staff
Marcus Neal has come a long way He has gone from an inexperienced sophomore wrestler with unorthodox moves to a state qual ifier in his senior year, compiling an impressive 19-2 record. Marcus developed an interest in wrestling after watching his cousins dominate on the collegiate level. He decided to go out for wrest li ng during his sophomore year He knew he could compete we ll but it would take a while. Coach McIntyre commented on his lack of experience. "His first year was a learning experience for what he could learn to do and what he couldn 't do." One move Marcus was not allowed to use was the "whirly bird." He was disqualified several times because he would lift people above his body and then turn in circles. He finished off the move by dropping his opponent to the ground.
The first season struggle was very frustrating to Marcus but he never gave up. "It was something the desire to get better and achieve what I know I can achieve." During the next two summers Marcus competed in several wrestling events including a free style greco-wrestling league "Each and every event I competed in during the off-season made me a better wrestler
His final year was definitely a success despite a couple of shoulder injuries that barely slowed Marcus'domination in the 189 pound class He fin ished off the year by placing 6th in the state competition He was somewhat disappointed in the result. "I wanted to take state but it was a frightening experience I know I could have placed better."
A fairly new team due to a large number of graduation starters from last year, the team will have to make up for lack of experience with talent.
iently
This years team shows a lot of strength in field events and long distance races, the Rockets dominating in field events in the early meets.
March
After only two years of having a boys team, Northeast formed a girls team due to an increase in interest.
They started the season with little experience, with only three returning letterers, one returning senior, and a new varsity coach.
A large number of returners gives Northeast an edge in experience that may have been the cause of a first place victory at Omaha Westside
The 1988 ROCKET used the theme "A Year in the Making" as 900 copies of the 47th edition of the yearbook was published.
The pages were printed on 80 lb. enamel paper by Walsworth Publishing Co. in Marceline, Missouri. Lincoln Northeast was represented by Mike Diffenderfer.
The books were sold for $20 at all sales periods. A 16-page fall supplement was added to the 176-page book.
The couer was designed by Bobbie Perry and placed on a Platina Gold couer with black applied print.
The size of the print uaried throughout the book. Nine or 1 0 point heluetica was used for the body copy, while nine point heluetica was used for captions. Names of the students were bold-faced in the captions. Senior s ummaries were set in 1 0 point heluetica with 1-point leading. The copy width uaried between 1 0 and 12 picas throughout the book.
All of the copy, headlines, and captions were set in the Northeast High School MERGER lab, on Macintosh Plus and Macintosh SE computers The copy was printed by the Apple Laserwriter, also located in the MERGER lab. The ROCKET was once again a school - pasteup book.
The Northeast ROCKET was published by the yearbook staff for the 1987-88 school year. The yearbook and newspaper staffs are members of the Nebraska High School Press Association.
Photo credits go to Richard Euans of Euans Studio for the team group photos, and to National School Studios for the underclass and some faculty photos. All other pictures were taken by ROCKET staff photographers.
A yearbook staff spends a great deal of time trying to figure out what students will want to remember about the school year 20 years from now. Soon after the year is over, memories still linger Remembering is not a problem But as the years go by, and friends drift apart, it becomes difficult to ecall some of those embarrassing moments, or some of those most memorable times.
In an attempt to give you a personal memory page, the 1988 ROCKET staff has devised this profil f the school year. Simply fill in the blanks, add whatever you want, and 20 years from now you ' ll have quick reminder at your Northeast High reunion. ame
