MOTOR VEHICLES, A CHALLENGE A parallel can be drawn between education and Motor Vehicles, since both provide a means to an end. This end is an important step forward on the road of life. As vehicles are men's tools for creating a more convenient and comfortable life, so does education pro- vide tools to be used in improving a man's position in life. These tools are many and serve as guides to make man a better being. It is our hope that we at Conrad Weiser have shared, guided, and provided some of the ve- hicles which will help you, the Class of 1969, Go as far as you can seeg and when you get there, you will see farther. Success to the Class of 1969, Terry W. Reber High School Principal Motor vehicles are constantly being im - proved in order to achieve greater speed, effi- ciency, and safety. Although few people would care to return to simpler and cruder days, all modern technical developments are good or bad depending upon the way they are used. Motor vehicles are no exception because they are no better than the individuals who use them. Statistics, on one hand, seem to prove that students who take driver training in school have a better record than the rest of the popu- lace, on the other hand, however, they indicate that young people, as a whole, have a higher accident rate than any other age group. May we count on all seniors to use all modern developments in ways that benefit everyone. Congratulations to a wonderful class! Norman B. Dinger Ass't H. S. Principal High School Principals

Stoltzfus To the Class of 1969: Your theme for the 1969 WEICON indi- cates one way schools have kept pace with a changing society. Vehicles bring students to school, they also enhance the instruction- al program. You were transported on curri- culum-related field trips, to athletic con- tests, and to music programs. You partici- pated in co-curricular activities, because a bus took you home after rehearsals and practices. Additional buses made possible the opportunities offered by the Berks County Vocational-Technical School. Certainly motor vehicles helped to enlarge horizons, broaden experiences, and heighten aspira- tions. Your school's primary concern, however, has been you as the person you were growing to be. Vehicles will continue to be merely vehicles which we should use to help us be- come respected, educated, mature, and pro productive persons in a decent, law-abid- ing, and dynamic society ever striving to make possible a better life for all. Best wishes for a rewarding future ! Sincerely, Walter A. Rohrbach Supervising Principal 5 The life of each of us is divided into two factors: the means and the ends for which we live The handling of these two factors determines the quality of a man or an era One after another the forces of the universe have been motorized for our service as in no other previous age the means of living The incommodity is not with our means but with our ends and there is no cure for that difficulty except strengthening the moral the spiritual and the conscious fibers of our souls Best wishes to the Class of 1969 john B. Stoltzfus, Elementary Principal
