11 N535 tl. cn A f it gghef Dorothy Cathell To Miss Dorothy Cathell, who is retiring at the end of this academic year, the Abington Oracle Staff respectfully dedicates this yearbook. It is particularly appro- priate that a publication should have the privilege to so honor a teacher who has done so much for school publications. The sponsor of Abingtonian, Oracle and Yearbook in her varied career at Abington, Miss Cathell will also be long remembered for her Senior Honors English classes. Throughout the years she has stinted in neither time nor effort to main- tain Abington's traditionally high standards in literature and composition. From Columbia and Pennsylvania School Press Conventions, Miss Cathell has led a host of delegates back to Abington with awards in every phase of journalism. To this devoted teacher, Abingtonians vote their everlasting thanks for teach- ing, counseling, friendship and inspiration. We are grateful that she was with us to open the new Abington High School and in a sense plant here the seeds of tradition which she has carefully engendered through the years. The Yearbook Staff along with the entire Abington family wish Miss Cathell a happy and pros- perous future in whatever she may do. 5

Proved Activities The hypothesis to a successful school year is an understanding administration supported by an interested student body. Our adminis- tration has done a masterful job of giving the new Abington Senior High School a firm foundation. With plans in formulation long before our new home was completed, our transition from Huntingdon Road to Highland Avenue was not without incident but always well organized. It is no less a task to transplant a student body with its traditions and customs than it would be to move the building itself. A major chord of the educational circle brought from the old to the new Abington High is our extra curricular program of formals, established activities, publications, student government, service clubs, vocational and professional interest groups, scholarship and sports honor groups, and musical organizations- all major postulates to our high school life. After the turmoil of moving, these traditions emerged stronger than ever as a living proof of the success of Abington's formula of education. 7
