The Venerable John N. Neumann, C.SS.R. FourTh Bishop OT Philadelphia As we look aT lasT upon The magnificence oT Bishop Neumann High School, sTanding like an acT oT TaiTh in our TuTure and The TuTure OT our Archdiocese, iT is hard To imagine a Time when Philadelphia was noT, as iT is now, rock-like in iTs CaTholicism. YeT There was a Time when The Church in This ciTy was in morTal Terror, iTs people persecuTed, iTs buildings burned. lnTo This chaos OT bigoTry and Tear sTepped a man named Neumann, and his courage, his holiness, his ChrisT-likeness conquered all. To This sainTly, Tearless shepherd, whose name our school bears, we humbly dedicaTe This, our i956 CRYSTAL.
