ZaCHARV lAYLOR WEIRICK built fine cabinets in the Bald Eagle Valley, Center County, Pennsylvania. His son, Joseph C. Weirick, superintendent of the Abington Township schools, during the thirty-five years of his scholastic career, has been building Christian character, ideals, and leadership from the raw material of human lives. Mr. Weirick brought to Abington High School, in 1918, a wide range of teaching and administrative experience. He found an enrollment of 190. He left an enrollment of 1,060 when, in December, 1934, he succeeded Mr. Ling as superintendent. Mr. Weirick believes in scholarship. He raised the status of Abington High School from that of just another country school” to that of a leader in academic and activities circles, rated by some of Pennsylvania’s leading colleges as the “best high school in the State.” Mr. Weirick believes in discipline. He lives the statement, “Only the man who can control himself is fit to control others.” Mr. Weirick is dignified. He is exact. He is immaculate. Yet he is human. He enjoys a real joke. He likes boys and girls. He mellows with them. Mr. Weirick sets a high standard. “A good teacher must know his subject. He must develop in his students character and responsibility. He must teach subjects second, boys and girls first.” Because of Mr Weirick’s outstanding record, because of his continuing faith in the younger generation, WE, THE CLASSES Of' 1936. DEDICATE TO HIM THIS YEARBOOK. DEDICATION
