Through the years they have been constantly beside us, and we recognize their un- dying efforts to please us. They have opened homes as well as hearts to us when We gave parties. Furthermore, they have united with us in the true A.F.S. spirit, mak- ing it possible for the school to have many of the needed revisions. They have guided us, seeing our shortcomings and oftentimes poor judgments, but loving us just the same. In short, our parents have made our youth the happiest, most fruitful years of our lives. It is with these few ideas in mind that we erect an eternal monument in each of our hearts for our parents. DEDICATIO We, the class of 1953, take great pleasure in dedicating our yearbook, OUTWARD BOUND, to two of our faculty members, Miss Ritz and Miss Huey. Through the years our class has ever been aware of the efforts of Miss Ritz to make us a happy and satisfied group. She has succeeded many times in granting our wishes, and we are heartily grateful for her constant considerations. Not only has Miss Ritz rendered us faithful service, but also she has shown us how to "live" the music and art we have learned from her courses. To Miss Huey we also dedicate our year- book because we realize that without her efforts many of us would find our futures very difficult. She has taken many hours to plan with us, ex- plaining and directing to the best of her ability. Miss Huey's ready smile and cheerful disposition never fail to put us at ease when we are troubled. And now we join together to salute two women devoted to Abington Friends and her girls. Five FACULTY AND STAFF Q Mx lfiml mfr: Many Helen Bicklcy. .Kuna Lois Riu.

S. in tenth grade, and ever since her sparkling personality and enthusi- asm have delighted us all. She's not just fun, however, but a responsible captain of our basket- ball team, and the miserly treasurer of our class. Andy is also active in Glee Club. Undoubtedly her beautiful soprano voice will be one of our memories. She is also famous for her 1946 Ford that practically stays together, though what would we do without it? Andy, as everyone real- izes, is extremely gullible. Remember the cows that stood on the hill with two short and two long legs, or the history paper that would count lor the whole quarter mark? All kidding aside, everyone that comes in contact with Andy appre- ciates her friendliness and good disposition. junrru B1.,uai:1.m' BIQLFIELD lli5li Susquehzunni Roald, Rydzil Entered H350 Soplmnmrrz' Clee Club: Second tezun hofk- ey: Color tczun lmsketlmll: ,-learns: NVell'are Committee.

'1Tl1e two noblest things, which are sweetness and light" Jane is the most peaceable person in the class, for she never gets into arguments, and her calm manner has saved many a brawl. She, how- ever, is far from passive, for Jane is editor of .-learns this year, and participates in all athletics. Jane is always ready and willing to lend a help- ing hand and never minds going out of her way to assist others. Her neatness has always im- pressed us, and we all envy her for her own little black Plymouth coupe, in which she so willingly carts people around. The boys have llOt passed jane by, either, for she is never with- out one. .Iane's sweetness and concern for others are valuable assets that have made her an outstanding member of our class.

"Thy smiles become thee well, therefore in my jJresenc'e still smile" Helen is the versatile member of our class, and anything she undertakes is done thoroughly and conscientiously. As captain of our varsity hockey and editor of the Yearbook, she has do11e outstanding jobs, and we say congratulationsl, These thirteen years at A. F. S. have brought her popularity and success, and she deserves both. Among her many assets is friendlinessg she can make anyone feel at ease. Whenever Helen has anything to do, she does it without groaning or putting it off. We will always have a great respect for her for this reason. Of course, Helen isn't all serious. Watch out when she starts gigglingg this girl can really be funny. Aside from her spirit, we like her for her understanding and patience with everyone. ation f10lll1lIlllCC. Sf'IIli07'.'

"Best, while you lmife il, use your breath" Lee's energy and elfervescence are un- bounded. She is always willing to undertake an- other job, such as our class projects, getting it for us wholesale. X'Vhat would we do without the Hammers' wholesale accounts? Lee is business manager of the Yearbook and one of the main reasons for its success. Her definite ideas and drive put life into, and make fruitful anything she does. Lee's beautiful clothes, petite figure and curly hair together make quite an attractive girl, and don't think the boys haven't noticed it. Everyone may tease her about her lack of self control, but really she does try and is determined to be successful. We are all grate- ful for Lee's pep and enthusiasm. She has cer- tainly given our class an added verve. Et.tz.Ansi2't'tt I,ttc:Rtc't't,x Huzn H10 York Roztd, .lenkintown lintered N349 l'1l'If.X'llIlIllIl.'

As we got to know her better, we appreciated her good nature, her funny re- marks, and very definitely her ability to drive a Car. She is also noted lor her knitting skill, which we appreciate especially when turning a heel or finishing a sork. Football is a main in- terest with Barbara, for she is an avid rooter for both the Penn and Navy teams. Barbara is one of the steadiest and most patient girls we know, and we can always depend on her. Her willingness to listen to people's troubles and to help whenever she is needed shows us that she is a true friend.

But Marylee will be remembered for her practical common sense, definite ideas, her truthfulness, and her modesty.

VVe will always remember Sally's parties, especially the open house alter the .junior Prom. Sally has the gilt of giving com- pliments whenever deserved, and she can always pep up her classmates. XVe will never forget the spice Sal adds to the class of '53.

"He will lmm' true glory who 1I1'spi.ses glory" "Itch" is a well liked member of our class, with her pretty brown eyes and varied interests. Riding ability comes easily to her: you should see the ribbons and cups she has won. One thing that is dear to her heart is "the ranch"-we think the XVest is in her blood. She can always be counted on lor her enthusiasm and partici- pation: you can hear her cheering the loudest lor hockey and basketball. She not only cheers for the teams but is a very valuable player. Here is one girl who says what she thinks without wasting her breath. She gets along easily with people and is a friend to everyone. The intelligence and serious concern which she has for others cannot be surpassed.

Sue's willingness to help out has been a great asset to our proms and projects. She also has a great knack for getting to the point and saves us a lot of wasted time in class meetings. Sue is always surprising us with those unexpected re- marks-sometimes we think she even surprises herself-you should see her blush! And how could we forget that milk jar at lunch ever ' since second grade? She will never live that down. Sue's naturalness and unaffected person- ality have brought her many friends: it's her friendliness and sincerity that have endeared her to us.

Brita is an influential leader also. As our vice-president, she did a wonderful job working on the -Iunior Prom, and she made an excellent Senior Class president, exercising her notable tact. Brita has a wellsrounded knowledge and a sincere interest which makes her have so many friends. Y'Ve . will never forget the house parties at Brita's.

She has been sup- plying us with laughs ever since First grade. Marty's wisecracks and ready retorts are likely to pop up even at the most serious moments. But she has, very definitely, a serious side, too. She knows when to withhold and when to ex- press her opinions, and in the latter case is mature. Independence and efficiency have made her an influential member ol' our class. Marty seems to know everything there is lo know about photography and has done a hue job as photography editor ol the Yearbook. Marty is also a roamer. She may always be lound travel- ing the highways. Wlatch out! VVC all appreciate her genuine wit and practicality, but her most outstanding feature is love-of-life.

This old timer, here since Kindergarten Five, has always had a keen judgment ol' people, which makes her one ol the most understanding girls in our glass. Her originality and ability in art, which you see exhibited in our figures and posters for the proms, will carry her a long way. She always seems to be painting or drawing something, whether it's posters, Christmas cards or just plain doodling. Aside from her interest in art, Nat likes horseback riding, and her help is ap- preciated by the Philadelphia Workeamps and Abington Hospital. Her independence and whimsy make her an individual, and her dis- like for superfieiality and insineerity will be a strong guide in whatever she undertakes.

I "It is written to be lzonmnlzle is to be l1umI1Ie" One seldom catches Mary in a blue or very serious mood: in fact, she is usually quite sunny. Despite Mary's love of fun, she can be "down to earth" and has proved her executive ability by being the class secretary throughout the junior and senior years. Wfe find her often writ- ing letters to her many friends all over the United States and Canada. Speaking of Canada -that is what Mary talks of most. Mary also thinks a lot about her future as the editor of a newspaper, a goal which we hope she will achieve. Mary is the kind of person in whom you feel free to confide, and it is her relaxed, congenial manner that puts everyone at ease.

The Class of 1953 Twen ty-seven Class Histor lVe now turn back the calendar to 1939, when we find Sissy High, the oldest member of the '53's, entering kindergarten four. The teachers couldn't figure out whether she was a budding circus clown or had the beginnings of a cowgirl. She was always either laughing at some joke or playing cowpoke with the boys. In kindergarten five, Nat Mlriggins, Sue Simon, Brita Strandberg, Trudy Putney, and Helen Fitzgerald arrived. Nat and Brita spied the paint jars and started improving the room with touches of yellow here and purple there. Helen and Trudy found kindergarten a series of whose turn it was for the pink chair. Sue made friends with the boys. They were good patients she said, and they gave her experience in practicing to be a veterinarian. First grade-we will never forget the day Marty Wiegand joined us. We thought she was a boy, since her hair had been cut off in a bout with 'scarlet fever. She soon made friends with everyone and had us all in knots as she taught us jujitsu. Second grade was interrupted by periodical air raids and spelling tests. VVe had to stand books in front of us on the tables-insurance against peeking. All went well until Helen took a look at someone else's paper. Her spelling hasn't been the same since! The boys didn't return in third grade. XfVe must have been too much for them! Anyway, we got along just as well without them! The fire escape at the end of the hall proved to be a great temptation to us, and more than once Sue and Sissy were kept in from recess for taking a short cut to the playground. Our spelling and pronunciation were progressing, but we had quite an argument about whether it was dinoSOVVER or dinoSOOR. Fourth grade brought us Sally "The Bird" Redd. She soon impressed us with her singing and led the class as we joined in on "Chiquita Banana" before listening to the "Science Is Fun" broadcasts every Monday. This interest in science did not detract from our project of knitting an afghan for Greece. Too bad Ginger wasn't there to help us! Ginger Gable did come in fifth grade and was soon busy winning the jacks games and the juniprope tournament. These were just the beginning of her bril- liant sports record. Wie appeared every Wlednesday in our green Girl Scout uni- forms, and people started getting tired of our oft repeated question, "Do you want to buy some cookies?" jackie joined us in sixth grade amid preparations for Miss Moore's wedding. Her engagement shower was a big success, though our poor teacher almost broke her ankles trying to keep up with our jitterbugging To show that we were really learning some Spanish, we gave a program about Rolito, a little Mexican boy. Wfe drove our parents crazy, trying to speak Spanish at every opportunity. lt was fun being the oldest class, but we looked forward even more to becoming the youngest as we entered seventh grade. In seventh grade we crossed the threshold from the lower school to the upper school. A new girl, in the small form of Corinne Rolnig, kept us entertained with her tales of Penn Charter. This was a memorable year. We also had our first male teacher, Mr. Smith. And everyone knew Georgie, our little invisible friend. Eighth grade brought jane Brooke and Trudy Putney. Our favorite pastime was cooking. Ginger proved her ability by boiling peas not only in the pot, but in the box as well. Then came the poisoned jello, which Mrs. Estes got by mis- Twenty eight take. Enough said about that. Sissy's other diversion was to soak a handkerchief with perfume and pretend it was chloroform. Once a teacher was chloroformed instead of Sally. j In ninth grade, we were welcomed with four girls: Nancy Reeves, Marylee Rabe, Ruth Ingersoll, and Barbara Householder. On Freshman Day we were initiated into the upper school. Our play was ingenious. We were disappointed, though, the following day, because of icy weather. Too many girls were absent. We had been so anxious to see everyone with straight hair parted in the middle. After Freshman Day we wore lipstick without having the guilty feeling of being too young, much to the dislike of the faculty. In tenth grade four girls came to complete the '53's: Lee Hammer, Carol Anderson, Mary Yoder, and Judy Belfield. Carol soon displayed her singing ability, which became an asset to our class. Helen was more surprised than any- one else when her picture was sent to an art exhibit. This year, we took our first real interest in the Dramatic Club play. VVC also gave a smaller production called "Mamma's Getting Married". Our Latin classes were quite lively, and Lee kept them jumping. Who said that it was redheads who have terrible tempers? june brought with it Brita's houseparty in Stone Harbor, and everyone had a wonder- ful time. In our junior year we still had the largest class in the upper school, but our Latin class was rather small. It was interesting, though. We discussed everything under the sun and a few things above it. Finally, we got our class rings which made us feel grown-up. Speaking of rings. how surprised we were when Ruth appeared with a diamond on the right finger. "Gee", we thought, "who will be next?" We decided on jewelry as our class project. Lee immediately responded with "I can get it for you wholesale." 'The junior Prom was our big event. We tried to turn the club into one of the Hawaiian Islands. Remember the pond of water that leaked? Missing persons could usually be found out on the first tee. By the time graduation came along, we all hoped that we would never see an- other daisy. At the houseparty, Casey Crime Photographer, better known as Marty, was forever sneaking around corners and catching us off guard. The pic- tures in the yearbook are proof of that. At last we were seniors. Our senior year involved a lot of hard work with the yearbook, prom, Ring Dinner, and other events, but it wasn't all work. We had fun, too. Our class alone turned out enough socks for the U. S. Army. It was also a year of hen parties, since most of the boys were either away at college or in the service. Corinne held an election party, and Nat had a party for making the snowman for the prom. lVe will never forget Carol's home permanent. She left it up all night. Brita, Sissy, and Mary, our three Western gals, couldn't for- get the trip out VVest, and they made sure that no one else forgot it either. Even though we had a few mishaps, we managed to get through the remainder of the year, because we were kept busy with the Dramatic Club Play, Arbor Day, May Day, and finally our own Commencement. The play was successful, and on Arbor Day, some new greenery was added to the school surroundings. We couldn't wait to discover who was May Queen. lN7e thought about our graduation dresses 'way back in November, so by june, we were prepared. As time goes by and we stop to look back upon our years at A. F. S., we will always remember them as years of happiness, the best years of our lives.

S. Elcarim began her maiden voy age on June tenth, l973.' "Better interview the captain's wife and get on with the gory details. To think I gave up a perfectly good taxi business to visit the captain's wife," muttered Marty, knocking on the captain's door. "I came to see the old lady," Marty said when she was admitted. "If you mean the captain's wife, I am she," came the reply. "I was Nancy Reeves. You have to be Marty. VVhat are you doing here?" "Are there any more shocks aboard that I could include in my article?" groaned Marty. "You remind me," said Nancy, "I noticed a familiar name on the passenger list. Could Sue Simon be the one we knew? She's listed in Cabin 12, right down this corridor. There she is! Sue, Sue . . "Yes?" came the prim reply. "Are you Sue Simon of the A. F. Class of '53?" "Nancy . . . Marty! I should have recognized you. I'm so mad at those children next door I can't think. Father gave me the money he saved by my staying single, for this trip. I intend to enjoy it. Excuse me while I inquire about the disturbance? Don't leave. I want to hear the news," Sue exclaimed as she tugged at her shawl and hurried off. "VVhere's your mother, young man?" inquired Miss Simon. "I'm here, but I wonder why," came the reply. "May I help you?" asked a petite woman hidden by her offspring. "Your children are annoying me. If they aren't more quiet, I'll report them. This one re- minds me of a classmate. Barbara must have her own now," said Sue, "C0l1lCl you be Sue SiII1Ofli"' asked Barbara Householder, "I am." ' "Excuse n1y children. I'll take them to the gymnasium to work off their excess energy and then come back and visit," said Barb. "Come to my cabin," said Sue. "Wonderful! Come On, kids. Mama has a new area for you to explore," said Barb leading her brood toward the gym. "Pardon ITIS, miss. If I leave my Cliildr6n here, would you see that they don't use the In- dian clubs on each other?" were about to be Barb'5 parting words, "Sure, l and 2 and l and 2 and-," came the amazon's panting reply as she lifted the dumbells. "Can't interrupt my Olympic training but I won't allow any murders except the murder of that Songbird I'd gladly commit. I can't bear to hear 'Sweetheart of Sigma Chi' again, It was, puff puff, my class song." "Your class song? Could you really be Cnrinne Romig?" asked Barb incredulously. 'WVhy, yes. You seem familiar, too. Are you Barbara?" "So many of the girls are here. You must join the reunion in Cabin l2," Said Barb, "I have to exterminate that singing first. Wlhy, I haven't seen the girls since I started at Temple." "Haven't heard anything like this since Sally tried harmonizing that tune," grumbled Cor- inne tracking down the wafting notes. "Hello, lass, have you a request?" asked the gong bird, "Yes, Could you find another place to practice? The nostalgia of hearing old songs is ruining my training routine." "Really, I should be practicing arias. I'm to sing with the Milan Opera. Isn't it thrilling? But we were discussing 'Sweetheart Of Sigma Cl1i'. It does bring back memories. It was our class song," warbled the SOngStrCSS. "This is too far to stretch fate, but HFC you Sally Redd? The red hair is misleading, but I don't look like the same Corinne either." "Darling, you've changed, but I'd recognize you anywhere. Mfish I had time to chat, but I Illllst dash. I'm just the tiniest bit late to sing at the VVonien's Highbrow Scientific Society's tea," said Sally. "Will I see you again, doll?" "The crowd is meeting in Cabin 12. Come and join us," called Corinne as Sally Hew off. "Eek . . . Yvhere did all these horrible bugs come from?" screamed Sally upon entering the salon. "This, Madame, is my renowned insect Collection. You must know Mary Yoder, all American Entomologistf' came the reply. Thirty-two "If I do your -er display has made me forget it. Could I find a cup of tea to settle my nerves?" "With lemon?" asked a stately woman, offering her one. "Since I invented the eflicient mail service to Colorado, efficiency has been my motto." "That sounds like something Jane Brooke would have done. Could you be she?" asked Mary. "You're jane and you're Mary," observed Sally. "It's wonderful to see you. jane, ex- plain your invention." "I waited so long for mail in my high school days I determined to speed up mail service between Pennsylvania and Colorado," said jane. "l'd love to chat, but I've got to sing," said Sally, "but let's all meet in Cabin l2." "You're going abroad to demonstrate your mail service invention, I'm going to lecture on our six-legged friends, and I read recently that another of our classmates is on this voyage. too. Have you seen Helen Fitzgerald since she became a famous pathologist?" Glancing around the room and recognizing Helen, Jane and Mary greeted her. "Oh," said Helen, "if it isn't .lane and Mary!" "Mary just told me you were aboard," exclaimed Jane. "Are there any more surprises?" "Yes," said Helen, "our class is well represented. I've discovered Carol. Here she comes." "Surprise! I invented an infallible way to keep skirts down. I've been asked to show my invention in Vienna. Isn't it exciting?" bubbled Carol. "All you do is put lead in your hemsf' "It's grand seeing you. You look healthy after peering at germs every day," commented Helen. "I wish I'd invented a way to keep my hair from grayingf' lamented Carol. "There's a marvelous hairdresser aboard. Wlhy don't you see her and meet us in Cabin l2?" suggested -lane. "Thanks. l'll see you later," called Carol, rushing off. Entering the beauty salon she addressed the proprietress. "l've heard you have a remedy for grey hair." "I have, but do you have a remedy for seeing things? You remind me of a girl I knew at school," said the stylist. "You have that effect on me. Are you Jackie Feldman?" "Then you are Carol Anderson! I'm sorry but I must rush. I have an appointment. It's wonderful to see you again," exclaimed jackie. "Come join us in Cabin I2 later," said Carol. - , "Can you give me a quick shampoo?" asked a brisk voice, as Trudy Putney entered in a dither. "I've a meeting and my hair looks dreadful. You'lI have to do something. By the way, haven't I seen you before? I meet many people and I never remember where. Do I look famil- lar: "Yes, you do. Did you attend Abington Friends?" asked jackie. "Yes, I did in the class of '53," said Trudy. "You're Jackie, aren't you?" "Trudy, I've heard you were interested in social organizations. I guess you don't have much time for other activities." "No, I don't, and you have a fine reputation as a hair stylist, but seeing you, I forgot where l'd I1lCt you!" Having been told of the party in Cabin 12, Trudy hurried off to a United Nations ban- t uet. I As the master of ceremonies introduced the speaker of the evening as "Miss Marylee Rabe, the distinguished U. N. delegate who had recently won the 'I Speak for Freedom' contest with her original address, and her friend and interpreter Miss Brita Strandbergf' the names seemed familiar to Trudy. When Brita concluded with, "Oui, oui, I'll be a Frenchman," Trudy was sure and rushed to speak to her distinguished classmates. "This is the job I always wanted," said Marylee. "I can hardly believe I've actually been so lucky. I'm helping people, but I never dreamed I'd ever go so far with one speech. The job at the U. N. is so convenient to my beloved Long Island." "I've enjoyed myself making faces at spectators at the U. N. from my glass interpreter's box, too," said Brita. "Seriously, the opportunities are unlimited. For instance, I have an ap- pointment with one of the ten-best-dressed women right now. Lee Hammer hasn't kept up with her French, and she's going to France for a Fitting for jacques Fath. l'm tutoring her! Before 1 go, don't forget we're invited to Cabin 12. Au revoir." As Brita entered Lee's cabin, an array of pill bottles greeted her eye before Lee spoke. "Excusez-moi for eating," said Lee. "This is only my fourth coke today, but I am trying to cut down." "Fine," said Brita tactfully. "You must be saving loads of money." "Yes, but let's get busy.

Nat found Ginger studying. "It's a problem, an ultra-advanced calculus I'm having a little trouble with," said Ginger. "Would you mind if I study as I pose?" They both worked diligently 'til Nat announced they'd need another sitting which could be arranged at the reunion. "Fine. Meanwhileh l'm going to the library to study this problem," said Ginger. Entering the library, Ginger noticed a familiar face. "Excuse me, but aren't you Judy Belfield?" she inquired. "VVhy, yes! Ginger. How are you?" "What brings you here, judy?" "I'm going to Europe to receive an award for having the fewest accidents. Right now I'm writing a speech on accident prevention."
