Taft tradition is indeed something of which we can be proud. It is the legacy of previous students and a challenge to the present students. We must all continue to keep Taft an outstanding place to transform ...,,,,,,.s ourselves into educated citizens of our community. . Assistant Principal We hear many complimentary statements regarding numerous schools in our nation today. The descriptive terminology used generally reflects the school's program, faculty, and students. For years, Taft High School has been blessed with a most competent staff. The school's program has been in the operating realm of excellence. Perhaps, the biggest asset at Taft is the student body. Taft is YOU. You are what makes things go. As you travel these memorable pages, you once again will see the fine quality of the Talisman staff. The story of pictures will unfold to you Taft High School of 1972-1973. It might be a story of happiness as Taft won over Garfield in football, a story of sadness in defeat, a story of self pride for being involved, or a story unknown whose label you must attach. Regardless of its content, its actors are you, YOU are Taft. Principal fhfpfdt . nk S A Q, if ' Q ,Q , a- A 3 fl t V . : 53 X .

This volume of Taft activities of the year is your opportunity to penetrate more closely into the magic spell of Taft Senior High. It is to you what the thermometer or the X-ray is to the doctor or what the microscope is to the scientist. It is your opportunity to take a closer look. Just as a bystander may sometimes perhaps see more of the game than the player, you, through this magic charm in becoming the bystander or the spectator of an entire school year of life at Taft, may see more of student life in these pages than you observed as one individual participant during the year. Take time for a closer lookg perceive as you see, for a momentls insight can be worth a life's experience. To quote John Ruskin, Hundreds of people can talk for one who can think, but thousands can think for one who can see. To see clearly is poetry, prophecy, and religion - all in one.
