Abington in Song and Story
This is the theme selected by the 1952 Oracle staff. One will often
hear loyal Ahingtonians singing of their Alma Mater! And why not?
We may be justly proud of Abington-our high school which has flourished
and developed into a fine institution, a leader among other schools. Let us
review our activities in song and story.
Remember how we beat a familiar path to the gym for those all-
school assemblies and pep rallies. It was there we were apt to sing lustily
of our victories in football, hockey and track. 1952 was the year that our
undefeated rifle team set a unique record and became the champions of
Eastern Pennsylvania.
The Oracle, Abingtonian, and Yearbook inspired praise. Our hearts
warmed with the first honors bestowed upon all three publications at
Reading.
Abington is certainly musically minded. ,lust listen to the lively
marches of the A.H.S. band! The strains of our favorite school songs
are music to our ears. Both the vocal and the instrumental departments
have done outstanding work in concerts and solo parts.
Our high school ranks high in academic achievements. Colleges through-
out the country report the outstanding records set by former Abingtonians.
This information deserves some sharp tooting of horns.
Let's stroll over to the athletic field. Do you recall how often we
boasted of having some of the newest and finest athletic facilities in Eastern
Pennsylvania? Visitors often comment on our modern gymnasium.
It would be hard to find a picture quite so lovely as Abington High
School in the autumn when the trees have turned to hues of purple and
gold. How easy to hum, "All hail to thee, our Alma Mater." Of Abington
sing we always!

One Lap to Go...
As a class of 271 we could boast neither of being "it" nor of being innocent of Abington tradition.
Now was the time for us to get really into the swing of things-scholastically and athletically.
Academically, the junior class led twice in the number of students making the Honor Roll.
This year some of our athletes made the varsity squads. M. Ritchie, S. Cuba, D. Hartshorne, and R. Cray were
on the rifle team that brought back the eastern championship to Abington. E. Wirs, E. Wright, L. Supplee and li.
Steinkamp made football and hockey teams, respectively.
J. Lucente's and J. Free-d's tap dancing and J, Smitlfs singing were only a few of the talents sported in Cala
Night.
L. Wrigley, B. Davies, A. Menten, A. Neide and B. Mullan contributed to those medalists-Oracle and Abing-
tonian.
ln March we spent much time to put on that gala dance whose theme was Stairway to the Stars. We all ad-
mired the efforts of Bill Mullan and his committee to make this a memorable ewening.
Yet, we don't want to reminisce too much, for we are looking forward to becoming seniors and .doing bigger and
better things.

One Down, Two to Go.
Although we came in searching vainly for the right classrooms and stairs that first week, we soon learned to
find them.
After being casual observers of the junior and senior class elections, we elected officers just in time to get their
pictures in the Yearbook.
Since we are noted as the largest class in the school, we have tried to be the class with the most school spirit.
In sports we have done admirably. As many sophomores turned out for football as juniors and seniors combined.
Maxine Swift made the Girls' Varsity Basketball squad. Not only in athletics have we contributed our ability
but also in many other extra curricular activities. Many are members of the band, orchestra or choral groups.
Barbara Goddard is co-editor of the second page of the Abingtonian. M. Costanzo, M. Cardiene, A. Miller, J.
Miller, C. Scali, as well as other sophs, participated in Cala Night. Scholastically J. Legory, J. Smith, J. Frishmuth,
R. Toothill, P. Kleinbard, M. Benham, and E. Fitzgerald make the Honor Roll.
We are eager-and we hope worthy-soon to be called upperclassmen.

ln her second season at Abington Mrs. Thompson
molded a spirited team that sported an impressive record
of seven wins and one loss. The hockeyists were scored
upon but three times during the entire season.
After defeating Olney 2-0 in the opener, the Maroon and
White outscored Ambler 2-0, Jenkintown 1-0, and Hatboro
1-0. ln each of these games, goalie, Juanita Ream, was
right on the ball.
Although the spirited Ghosts played hard, Springheld
handed them their first and only defeat, 2-0.
ln the following contests the varsity trimmed Norristown
6-1, Cheltenham 3-0 and Lower Merion 4-0, respectively.
Veterans-E. Meaney, M. Rapp, N. Hirschbuhl, G. Gil-
son, A. Sexton, and J. Ream-helped to compile the finest
record attained in the past ten years.

Marlcsmen Cop Eastern Pennsylvania Honors
Ready! Aim! Fire! How familiar these words were to every member of
the rilie team. The squad began to prove its marksmanship by defeating West
Catholic in the opening tilt of the season. Dave Clark's proteges"went on to reach
top honors in every match, including a 494 to 493 decision over Upper Darby, the
defending champs. Thus the sharpshooters stood in the spotlight-the first undefeated
team of the season and also the first rifle championship team since rifiery started
in 1948.
These faithful, striving marksmen garnered additional laurels by defeating the
Ephrata High School defenders in the finals of the Eastern Pennsylvania Champion-
ship. Then on April l2 at DuBois, Pennsylvania, the trigger-happy squad met the
champs from the western part of the state.
Individual honors went to Stuart Cuba who in the SPIRA Individual Champion-
ships finished second to an Upper Darby targeteer.

Yes, weive worked hard, but depicting Abington
in song and story has been fun. Along the way we
have had the help of many to whom we wish to
express our appreciation. To
Mr. S. C. Shultz of H. G. Roebuck and Son for
his help in printing an interesting book.
Miss Ann McCarthy, Mr. Carl Wolff, and others
of the Zamsky Studios for their generous service in
photography.
Norman Shriver, James Rundell and other students
for offering many pictures.
Mr. Cernert, our principal, the faculty and fellow
students for their cooperation.
Our advisers, Miss E. Haldeman, Miss E. Milne, and
Mr. D. Krueger, for help and guidance.
Our many advertisers who have helped to make
this annual possible.

At last the l952 Yearbook is yours. We say
Hat lastw because we have worked feverishly every
spare minute to prepare this annual for you. Con-
fidentially, we must admit that last fall our job
looked easy. Hal How wrong a group of eager,
inexperienced seniors can bel
To boost sales and to make the Yearbook in-
teresting for everyone, the editorial staff included
individual pictures of the sophomores and juniors.
Oh, how can we ever forget those sophomore and
junior pictures! Hours and hours were spent
trying to discover the unknown identities of our
underclassmen. How we sighed with relief when
that seemingly endless task was accomplished.
More things than one can ever imagine have had
to be done. Some of our major tasks were
accomplished early in the year. Remember how
we passed out those yellow sheets, seeking the
nicknames, activities, hobbies, and the like, for
senior Writeups. It was like pulling teeth to
get some to release this vital information. Our
business staff proved invaluable by typing up the
endless flow of material.
But, our work was far from finished. Those
informal photographs were to be obtained. Perhaps
you can still see the long suffering photographer
snapping your picture at unexpected moments.
After hurrying to the HY" to catch some fancy
diving, he had to wait a full fifteen minutes before
the steamed lens of his camera cleared. Fun?
All the staff thought a musical theme would be
great, that is until they had to think of song titles.
The community disc jockeys have never had a more
faithful audience.
