THE 1973 BA N NER i 2 Dedication ! Words can hardly describe kind and gracious personality of our school secretary. For many years she has worked nard voluntarily in all school activities helping us and others before us to achieve our goals. Whether it be keeping time at races or handling our financial problems she has given generously of time and effort keeping things running smoothlv. We the memDers of the Banner staff, and Senior class would like to show our sincere appreciation by dedicating the 1973 Banner to Mrs. Anita Pickielnok. As we, the Seniors look back through our years at BRHS we notice one teacher who has stood out among all others. He has worked for and with us, words fail to express our sincere respect and admiration for this man. He is the head of A. V. A. dept., Athletic dept., and the Junior Class sponsor. He gave much time and effort for the Junior Prom. His inspirational school spirit and attendance at all soccer and bas- ketball games gave us the will to drive on. Because of his outstanding work as a teacher and sponsor, we the members of the Banner staff and Senior class are proud to dedicate the 1973 Banner to Mr. Stewart Schmidt.
