They were "Ledge, Ledger, and the Legend," "Curse You, Jack Dalton," and " T h e Cop and the Anthem." "Ledge, Ledger, and the Legend" was about a young man who wanted to commit suicide by jumping off a building. He is confronted by a young woman who specializes in professional suicides. "Curse You, Jack Dalton" was an old-fashioned melodrama, complete with hero, heroine, and villain.

All three plays were enjoyed by the audience as well as the actors. 76 �Fall Plays BOTTOM ROW: Bob A c M o o d y, D a n Duke, Marsha Kolassa, Lorraine Wo t t a , Diane Gibbs, Beth I d i n g , R i c k Gregg, Peter Shoun.

What Do You Really Want Out of Life? Reality sometimes is hard to face And life might not seem worthwhile, but, If you can take it one day at a time You can face each day with a smile, Concern about what the future may hold is important . . . that is true, Knowing what you want out of life Can mean a lot to you . . . but Knowing about the future Can't help you live right now Now is the best time of your life Yet you seem to rush through i t somehow, If you would only take the time to make the most of today, So much is there to be shared with a friend Before it all passes away Each moment is made up of memories That will be treasured your whole life through Life's path of destiny and fate is left to be determined by you, Yes, what do you really want out of life? The time to decide is soon. by Cyndi Clinansmith 3 �FROM THE WONDERFUL PEOPLE STAFF MEMBERS: Mrs. Bolton; Advisor, Trudy Szafranski; E d i t o r, Brenda Battenfield; A s s t .

A . 159 �The final day, the final hour, That final bell, Did you think they'd ever come? Remember back on your first School days saying: " I think school is dumb!" You can try to reach back And make that last day linger. But it's just like trying to Grip sand. It slips right through Your fingers. But now you're at the door, And you begin to wonder why: School used to be a drag, But now it seems to fly. And there you are in your Cap and gown And your mother starts to cry And then there's nothing left To be said Collecting pictures, signing yearbooks Always on the last day. But it seems you can't write Fast enough. There's so much more you want to say. Except, of course . . Good-bye MRS. DIANE BOLTON, Advisor TRUDY SZAFRANSKI, Editor BRENDA BATTENFIELD, Asst.

The year began with experience using terms, croppers, and the instrument that is loved by all - our camera. We attended a Yearbook Workshop a t Kalamazoo Community College as guests of Taylor Publishing Company. Then, the day that we a l l waited for, the announcing of Editors, and Assistants. We had to earn $4,000, so off we ran, grasping car keys to make our yearbook happen by selling ads. Events came and went and staff members armed with cameras were present to capture every thrilling moment in a lasting memory. As the year is drawing t o a close the good times outnumber the bad. Your yearbook i s completed a n d w e hope you have as much fun remembering as we had compiling your memories.

The time has gone so quickly And now you have to leave The hurt is so unbearable It's so hard not to grieve I'm sorry friend for all my tears But I can't hold them back I just can't face you going now For it is strength I lack Remember all the fun we shared The good times and the bad Will we still be able to fulfill All the dreams we had All along in my heart I knew Some day we'd say good-bye And that someday is here and now I feel like I could die Parting always hurts so much Why does that have to be All the joy you've given me Is one big memory I think of all the friends I've known And then I think of you All my thoughts and memories I wish could still be true I t s hard dear friend to say good-bye And see you go your way But life is full of sorrows that We all must face someday How should we say our last good-byes A kiss - a look - a touch Whichever way the pain's still there It hurts so very much Here we are, the time has come I'm trying not to cry In my heart it hurts so much I just can't say good-bye. Time has passed and we with time I can't help but wonder why There is nothing left that I can say Except, m y friend . . . good-bye. by Tami Ludwick 56 ��Class Night Class Night was held June 3 , 1976, a t 8:00 P.

We'll work with others hand- i n -hand. To try to help our fellow man. In this land our fathers made. We stand together unafraid. Give us room; l e t us by. The youth of America have arrived. There's nothing wrong that we can't fix; We're the Spirit of '76. Mrs. Diane Bolton, advisor Brenda Battenfield, editor Risa Davis, asst. editor ��/ / �J IN CONGRESS.

"Legends" and "Memories" are what comprise Viking Publications, journalism class in which the high school yearbook and newspaper are prepared. Each year brings with it new challenges: starting from "scratch" to earn enough money for each publication; developing new designs and techniques so that each year improvements can be made; training a new staff; learning journalistic terminology; working before, during and after school; and working to become dedicated to the school and to each other. An easy job, i t is not. But, the rewards are plentiful. Seeing each paper and yearbook as it is published gives one a real feeling of success. This year's Viking Publications Staff was over-flowing with talent and enthusiasm and, because of i t , they produced regular monthly newspapers and an annual that surpasses any that Bronson has ever seen. �1.

You ask, " h o w i t is one day they're here and the next they're g o n e ? " How can i t be? This is where they belong. T h e y ' v e l e f t us w i t h precious moments and memories w e ' l l never forget And we go on l o v i n g t h e m as they are somehow w i t h us y e t . We dare to remember the things we loved so m u c h things they have said and the hearts that t h e y ' v e touched. We dare ourselves to try to understand Why our friends or loved ones were those chosen to go When truly o n l y God h i m s e l f could k n o w. And as we go f r o m day to d a y, o u r minds d r i f t to thoughts of our past; Moments in our l i f e we know w i l l always last. Our friends and loved ones are l i k e t h a t , f o r they always stay apart. Even though they are not w i t h us they're i n our m i n d , soul and heart. For us on earth we must face the pain, for those who have l e f t us Have only l o v e to g a i n .

Layout, news gathering, and many related duties are all integral functions before publication. Julie and Deb have put forth great efforts in publishing this paper, of which we are all proud. On the other hand, Tami and Judy have spent many hours working on the yearbook. This requires getting pictures, designing and layout, writing copy, and many little odds and ends. It all takes time and maybe sometimes more than is thought. But, in the end, you find it's all worth it. f Mrs. Bolton Mr. Reardon 6MEMoRms =Fr- �rE G �1. M r. Beauchamp h a s been here for 7 years.

The sense of finality seemed real as their feelings about everything intensified. As graduation approached, Seniors looked back nostalgically on their years of school and growing up together and wondered where it all went to. Busy as they were, Seniors knew that decisions must be made and made now. Although the regret of leaving high school was there, the possibilities of the future intrigued them. The last weeks of school with Gov't. term papers due, final exams, Cedar Point, and graduation preparations flew by like minutes. Then i t became time for tasseled caps and gowns, Class Day, Baccalaureate, proud parents, Commencement ceremonies, happiness, and a few tears . . . IT WAS TIME FOR THE CLASS OF 1978 TO MEET THE WORLD. GRADLIMION 4 9 �On Thursday, June 8, 1978 at eight o'clock, Commencement took place for the class of 1978. They were escorted onto the Athletic Complex at Bronson High School, by honor guards of the class of 1979. "Dreams" was the topic addressed by Historian, Bonnie Hyska. The Valedictorian, Charles Bell, talked on "What's Next?" Stephen Albright, class Salutatorian, gave a speech on "A Time to Understand." Following them was the Honors Presentation and also the Presentation of the 1978 class. Finally the Awarding of Diplomas came — which brought about many smiling faces. The Cane Ceremony completed the Commencement with Chuck Bell presenting the cane to Carol Haylett, President of the class of 1979. It's all over now and in just one short year, we'll be out there again, reliving the past and looking ahead towards a new beginning. so GR4EX46110N ��SeNIORJACLOMPLISI-VENITC ALBRIGHT, CINDY: BACC 1; OJT 1; Fall Play 1; Children's Play 1; Spirit Core 3; BOEC 2; (8th in Shorthand Regionals); Foreign Study 1; School Services 1/2; Choir 1; Who's Who in American High School Students.

Think of all the friends you've made and things you have yet to do. Leaving love and fun behind in search of something more, I once heard a wise man say, 'search behind each closed d o o r. . Different lives may lie ahead, things I know not of. It takes special people to produce a yearbook and newspaper. People who are dedicated to compiling a pictorial history of each school year. People who work beyond the required time to get advertising. P e o p l e who are willing to work together for a common cause. People who use their imaginations to create reality. The Viking Publications' Staff o f 1978-79 w a s comprised o f s u c h people. A n d , a s advisor, I o w e these young men and women a special thanks. They have produced an exceptional book of " M e m o ries" that will be a thing to treasure always. In addition, m y staff and I would like to a c k n o w l e d g e with o u r deepest and sincerest appreciation the efforts put forth by so many others who have helped make your Viking MEMORIES and LEGEND possible: Mrs. Diane Bolton, advisor; Judy Herman and Lee Bonecutter, MEMORIES editor and assistant editor; Deb Yesh and Jim Losinski, LEGEND editor and assistant editor: Lee Bonecutter and Bob Pranga, staff photographers; Rosie Ratkowski, advertising coordinator; J u d y Baldwin a n d Bethany Garman, business managers; MEMORIES staff; LEGEND staff; Mr. L e e Zimmerman and Ta y l o r Publishing Co.; Mr. B o b Conway and Skylight Studio; advertisers; Mr. Ray Smith of the BRONSON JOURNAL; students and faculty of Bronson High School. All I k n o w for sure, my friend, This world is made of love. Remember me, as I'll remember you. Perhaps we'll meet again. If not, I'll cherish dreams forever and memories to the end. — Tina Barr �����I t s been t w o years since Bronson High School h a s h a d a foreign e x c h a n g e student and t h i s y e a r w e ' r e p r o u d t o h a v e F r a n k ROthig.

WILKINS Jan. 26, 1962— May 25, 1980 So short the time, So much the pleasure in all the moments he gave to treasure. And so with our lives we must try to go, while he with our Father a deeper love will know. In those who knew him, the moments will stay to live in our hearts long after today. All of us richer for him having known. All of us stronger with him having grown. For strong is the love that grows fora friend. Like an unbroken circle it never will end. by Karla Uhrig ��M r .

They started out the year by electing one representative for every twenty students. Their first major activity of the year was planning all the Homecoming activities. They then sponsored a costume day for Halloween with prizes given for best costumes. Christmas week festivities were a success ending with a much enjoyed assembly. The long awaited event, Twirp Week, was a source of excitement as all the classes participated in competition with each other. This year's Council was able to follow through with a project started by the previous year's Council. Reaching their goal, the computer committee was able to purchase a TRS-80 Color Computer which is now being widely used by our students, particularly in the mathematics department. Besides the aforementioned activities, the Council also continually strives to improve relations among students and between students and teachers and students and administrators and tries to make Bronson High a good place to get an education.

The m e m o r i e s i n t h i s yearbook a r e special, a n d i n t h e f u t u r e after m a n y o f us h a v e g o n e o u r separate ways. w e will look b a c k at the history we made and remember all the happy times, t h e sad times, the teachers, a n d most of all, our friends. I would like to give a special t lanks to my staff for putting up with all my impossible demands. There is one yet who remains t o rec€ y e the whole staff's thanks and gratitude — o u r advisor. Mrs. Hurd. Without all her help and hard w( rk, I know we would have never made it through this year. I. also, wish the Class of 1981 all the luck in Me world.

Smitty will always be remembered for telling Polish jokes and making kids smile when he played Santa Claus. He will be especially remembered for his confidence in troubled students whom he made into outstanding FFA members. Although Smitty can't be with us anymore, the MEMORIES he left will be ours forever. 1 34 M E M O R I E S OF SMITTY �F.F.A.
