Nature played an important role in Mr Moll ' s teaching We Learn From Those We Love. When people have spent a great deal of time together, they grow to know and love one another. All the little moments of time that were shared form a bond between them that can never be broken in spite of the time and distance which might come to separate them. This is the kind of rel ationship that was shared by the class of 73 with a man who has earned the respect and admiration of all his students. He taught biology at Brandywme until ill health forced his retirement. Although he may no longer be physically present in our school, he is not forgotten by his former students. They will always remember him as a man who cared enough to share a part of his life with his students. He taught them more than biology; he gave them the fruits of a life filled with dedication to the pursuit of knowledge. It is with grateful acknowledge- ment of this dedication and caring that we, the class of 73, dedicate the TRACER to Mr. Carl Moll.

lived by all the people in it. For that reason the Tracer staff has chosen time as the theme, of the 73 yearbook because time is the theme of life as well. Time is the thread that binds together the memories of the past with the hopes for the future, and creates from them the reality of the present. Time, however, is not divided solely between the past, the present, and the future. In the short span of life there are many kinds of time, each as different as winter is from summer, as spring is from fall. Add all these differences together and one may catch a glimpse of the true nature of time. Many people have tried to describe these differences, but few have succeeded as well as Charles Dickens. In the passage below from A Tale of Two Cities, Dickens almost succeeds in painting a picture of time, by contrasting some of its many faces: It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way . . . This yearbook tells the story of one year in the life of Brandywine Heights. A lot of memories are crowded into that year-to record all of them within this yearbook would be an impossible task. But a great many memories can be found in these pages. This, then, is the 73 Tracer-a window to all the times of this past year.
