Text from Pages 1 - 152 of the 1972 volume:

- � ‘S� ( The Yearbook staff is very happy to DEDICATE our 1972 edition to Mr. Harry M. Layman. He has taught school and been an administrator for fourty and one half years. Thirty seven and one half years of those were at Birch Run. He graduated from Mancelona High School and went on to receive his Bachelor of Arts Degree from Central Michigan University. He later received his Master of Arts Degree at the University of Michi- gan. He spent three years teaching in Antrim County before he came to Birch Run. In 1934 he came to Birch Run as principal and coach. In 1935 he was made superintendent, teacher and coach. In 1966 he returned to just teaching. Over the years he has taught World History, World Geography, Government, Economics, Business Law, and Civics. We would all like to express our appreciation and gratitude to Mr. Layman for all he has done for Birch Run. We will always remember him.

Bridgeport Congratulations Class of’72 Enjoy good sportsmanship, fun and relaxation while bowling at Candlelite. I have died in Viet Nam. But I have walked the face of the moon. I have befouled the waters and tainted the air of a magnificent land. But I have made it safe from disease. 1 have outraged my brothers in the alleys of the ghettos. But I have transplanted a human heart. 1 have flown through the sky faster than the sun. But I have idled in streets made ugly with traffic. I have scribbled out filth and pornography. But I have elevated the philosophy of man. I have littered the land with garbage. But I have built upor it a hundred million homes. I have watched children starve from my golden towers. But I have fed half of the earth. I have divided schools with my prejudice. But I have sent armies to unite them. I was raised in a grotesque slum. But I am surfeited by the silver spoon of opulence. I have beat down my enemies with clubs. But I have built courtrooms to keep them free. I live in the greatest country in the word in the greatest time in history. But I scorn the ground I stand upon. 1 have built a bomb to destroy the world. But I have used it to light a light. I am ashamed. But I am proud. I am an American. JAMES H.
