Margaret Tharp's personal touch w i t h her students in her classroom w i l l forever be worthy of her untiring service in the educational field; i t is evident in the lives of her pupils. She possessed a l o f t y intellect and an inborn culture nurtured by excellent training, and she a l ways strove toward a higher goal o f excellence. T h i s she generously imparted to her students during the daily routine of her teaching duties. She radiated a n atmosphere o f prestige seldom found among work- a -day humans. She observed the high moral standards of ethics toward her co-workers. She was a true Christian as observed by her guidance i n the classroom while she was teaching. H e r teaching methods were always abreast o f the times; her students were offered progressive educational materials relative to the fine arts in literature and art which influenced their culture. Margaret Tharp possessed a gracious, warm personality; she was friendly and sincere; her manner was charming and w e l l -poised; she was graceful, relaxed, and confident; therefore, she gained the confidence o f her pupils. She had a rich, flexible v o i c e which was charming as she read sketches from the classics - her students w i l l long recall this feature o f her daily program. Bronson H i g h School has been fortunate i n securing her services during the past 34 years. She passed this way but once, and the imprint of her passing w i l l long endure among her students and our faculty members. Her book o f l i f e remains unfinished - her reward i s a wondrous contribution to humanity and a distinct honor to our Bronson High School.

The past four years have been f i l l e d w i t h many memories, b o t h happy and sad. T h e only advice we give to you who remain is to stick with i t and stay i n school. W e a l l know t h a t at times i t doesn't seem worth i t but when you get that l i t t l e piece o f paper that says you are a graduate o f BHS, t h a t ' s when you realize that i t is worth i t a l l . B u t just because we have graduated doesn't mean we have finished our education; i n fact, o u r education has only begun. 25 �Capricorns Dec. 22 To Jan. 19 LARRY APPLETON K AT H Y BAKER DIANA CAPMAN MIKE CRANSON DAVE DEMERRIT SUSAN ELLIS TED GREGG BOB KOLASSA �CAROL LARABEE DIANE MACKE KAREN McGIFFEN BUFF MITCHELL Aquarius Jan. 20 To Feb. 18 BO BERGQVIST MARY BOTZNER KAT.HY GRUBER RICK HOOKER ALICE HULL _ 27 �K AT H Y HYSKA STEVE I VA S K A EVELYN LUDWICK JAN MEYER SHIRLEY PLASTER KENNETH WOLF TOM YOUNGQUIST DOROTHY BORGERT - Te e n Fashion Board. 28 �DOROTHY BORGERT Pisces Feb. 19 To Mar. 20 ALLEN COCKRELL CHERYL COSSAIRT BOBBIE HERMAN CAROL KRALL DENNIS RUBLEY 29 �ALLEN SLAGLE GREGORY SYNDER K AT H Y STEVENS TED SZAFRANSKI RAY VER MEULEN LYNN WILLIAMS KAREN ZABONICK Aries Mar. 21 To Apr. 19 JO ANNE HOUTZ 30 JOHN HUBER �JUDY L AY M A N CHARLES McDONALD KEN MORRISON Taurus Apr. 20 To May 20 GARY BOHACZ MIKE COSSAIRT JOHN HANSHAW CINDY HART DIANE KELLER 3I �TERRY M AY ROBERTA PIFER GARY SIELKIN BARB WOT TA BOB YODER GINNY HEDGECOCK - Homemaker of Tomorrow 32 �LARRY BARR SANDY BORTON Gemini May 21 To June 20 KAREN BURCH DEBRA COFFEY MARK CREAL JIM CUNNINGHAM J A N E T T A DETER STEVE ELLISON P A U L HAND 33 �PAM I f YSKA MICHAEL MICHAEL STEVE RUNYON Cancer June 21 To July 22 KAREN C R Y .AUGUST HERMAN ' B E V E R LY H O A R ) ROBERT HYSKA SHARRY KAIN D AV I D McDANIEL 34 DEB SHOUN �PAUL METZER JAMES MODERT REBECCA RINEHART Leo July 23 To Aug. 22 RICK WOOD JUDY BAKER EMMA FENNER CHRISTINE HAND SUE HOARD 35 �ANN KENTNER BARB MARKLEY K AT H Y SZAFRANSKI Vi r g o Aug. 23 to Sept. 22 DENNY WOLFF GARY CRANDALL MARK GIOCENTO DENNY GIBBS ROSAN GOSHORN GREG GRUNER �GINN Y HEDGECOCK BRENDA JOHNSON ALICE KLAVINSKI LINDA KLINE TERRIE LaMON TAG NE JO A N N LAUX 4 DONNA L A ZENBEE MARCIA SMOKER MONICA SMOKER DAVE SUPIANOSKI 37 �Sept. 23 To Oct. 22 PORTER BOWDISH DEAN BOWERMAN LAWERNCE MONROE JAN!

I n the mid 50's she started participating with Mrs. Tharp in drama. Eventually she and Mrs. Tharp shared the responsibility of the junior and senior plays. Miss Chisholm started the childrens play as an extra contribution to the community and also began the all-school play instead of the two class plays. She has been influencial in making Thespians successful here. a Miss Chisholm gives everybody credit, including the people who work behind the scenes. She has contributed a great deal to the community as program material for unlimited organizations. Miss Chisholm has always had a love of drama and is willing to work long enough to attain a degree of professionalism in the plays. As a teacher Miss Chisholm gives of her time and energy to the fullest degree. She strives for perfection and she knows the students are capable. Because of her devotion to the Bronson community, she is much respected by all. 2 �Contents Candids4 Administration 1 1 Faculty 1 5 Classes 2 5 Seniors 4 7 Organizations 6 7 Activities 8 5 Sports 1 0 1 Advertising 1 2 1 3 ���������School Board 1971-72 MR.
