'H 1' , f f A log cabin, often visited by Conrad Weiser, brought to Weiser Park from the Appalachian Trail. Ns Yo:-eword In this year of 1954, we are all hoping to secure greatly needed world peace and co-operation. But treaties alone do not guarantee everlasting peace, they may merely postpone war. Peace is of another substance, a product of infinite readjustment and of the living faith of a people. In colonial days, Conrad Weiser wished to secure peace between the settlers and the Indians. He devoted his life to this cause by becoming an interpreter. Through this yearbook, the Class of '54 hopes to give you a description of the eventful life of Conrad Weiser. Through Conrad Weiser, our yearbook, the WEICON, has received its name. The combination of the first three letters of Weiser's first and last name form a lasting memorial to the man who contributed so much to the history of Womelsdorf. With pictures and brief stories we shall try to bring his life and experiences closer to you. Conrad Weiser's home located in Weiser Park east of Womelsdorf. -11 bedicativn We, the Class of 1954, have dedicated this yearbook to Mr. James F. Shankweiler, who has given us his time, energy, and great understanding to help us reach our much sought for goal. We have sincerely appreciated his helpful guidance. Mr. Shankweiler came to Womelsdorf in 1950. He continued his graduate work at the University of Pennsylvania and later acquired his Supervising Principals Certifi- cate. He has completed the course requirements and has passed all the examinations necessary for the degree of Doctor of Education. At present he is working on the dissertation required for the degree. By the end of the 1954 school term he will have both his Secondary and Elementary Principals Certificates. Under Mr. Shankweiler's energetic leadership, and modern philosophy of educa- tion, many improvements to the school have been initiated. Naming a few would include curricular changes, macadamizing of the playground, acquiring new kitchen appliances for the home economics room, and an amplification system in the audi- torium for dances and assembly programs, and full activity programs. He has also inaugurated a program for the painting and redecorating of the building on a year to year basis. We, the Class of 1954, take this opportunity to express our appreciation for his interest in our education. We wish Mr. Shankweiler success in attaining his degree of Doctor of Education and hope that he will have many more successful years in leading the youth of our community to take their place in the world. -2.... The writing desk, located in Conrad Weiser's home, at which Weiser did much of his studying. 14 miniA tration During Weiser's Adminirtmlion as Indian interpreter, he visited many of the flourishing farms of the Dutch Country of Pennsylvania. Here he found order, and he saw his faith in mankind, his vision of a free people at peace, fulfilled He had dreamed time after time of a country such as this, with the industry and neighborli- ness through which the German immigrants had achieved the village, the model of society and first pattern for peaceful living. Weiser knew that through the village man could learn to understand mankind. The peace he found in his Pennsylvania German village extended to thirteen colonies, then to forty-eight states. Today we are discussing with our teachers the problem of world peace. From their desks, the teachers are trying to explain to us what conditions are needed to satisfy every individual so that all the nations of the earth will live together with peace and cooperation. The dreams of Weiser were not idle dreams and it is not idle to dream of a united neighborly world, its model found in a million Womelsdotfs. -3. -1-d ! !'f.l-ti-xlm!'x!'1!'x!'x!-'I-xl-I-xl-fl-K!-11-xl-xl-4'kI'kl-fl-ilwi ml'Ll'LK-xl .bd-xl .M 'U PL! 44444-G-G-G-G-G-Cb!!-G-fl-Cl'il-G-G-G'C!'CI'Cl-G-6-4-CK-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-LPC!-G-kl-Cl'G'tK-G'd't!'t!-xbd-G'xI-G-6-G-G ff 2 ii 51 5 5' ? ? 5? 5 -C if - Z 9 'P '? 7 7 'F '?

Guidance, Algebra, Dental Hygienist Supervising Principal lx JL. The Class of '54, along with many others, learned with regret of the resignation of the First Grade teacher, Miss Laura Mae Snyder. Miss Snyder has taught the first grade of Womelsdorf for 40 years. Previous to coming here she taught in Marion Township and Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. She was graduated from State Teachers College, Kutztown, Pennsylvania. To ad- vance her education she took extension courses at Pennsylvania State College and Uni- versity of Pennsylvania. She is a faithful member of Zion Reformed Church and has served as Secretary of the Sunday School since its organization in 1917. At present she is secretary of the Woman's Guild and the Woman's Missionary Society. Miss Snyder is a past president of the Womelsdorf Woman's Club. She is a mem- ber of the Drama Division of the Woman's Club, the Berks Chapter of Daughters of American Revolution, the Beta Chapter of the Delta Kappa Gamma Sorority and a charter member -of Conrad Weiser Chapter of Eastern Star. Miss Snyder is an active worker of Berks County Sabbath School Association. In 1949 she was honored for 28 years of service as Head of the Children's Division of the Berks Co. S.S.A. In our community, Miss Snyder is a campfire leader, secretary of the local Ameri- can Red Cross since World War I, a member of the local Memorial Association, the Fire Company Auxiliary and the Community General Hospital Auxiliary. Also she is an active Community worker since its organization. The Class of '54 will ever be grateful for Miss Snyder's many services. Although she has decided to leave the schools as an active teacher, we will always remember her as the First Grade teacher who helped to make the way up the long ladder of Education a little less difficult for us. ..8-. .fdflll ell! A memorial statue to the great Indian chief, Shekallamy, located in Conrad Weiser Park. Seniol-A One day Shekallamy came to Weiser and said, I dreamln Weiser asked the old Chief what his dream had been. The latter said, I dream you give me new hunting rifle! The Interpreter, immediately, handed over his much prized firearm and departed. Sometime latter, Weiser met Shekallamy and said, I dream also! What you dream? asked the Chief. I dream that you gave the Isle of Que? The Indian, not to be outdone, gave the island, which was ayjewel in the eyes of the redman, to Weiser. just as Shekallamy and Conrad Weiser got what they went after, we are getting what we want. As this last year of school closes for us, we, the Seniorf, realize that nothing can be accomplished without a sacrifice. -9.- PATRICIA ANN BASSETT Patty Commercial Hazel-eyed blonde . . .

Clauea When Conrad Weiser was no more than a Babe from the cradle, he, together with his family, left his home in Gross Aspach, Wurttemberg, Germany, and joined the throng of expatriates moving northward along the Rhine River to Rotterdam. In the year 1709, Conrad's mother died. He wrote in his diary of his mother: She was a God-fearing woman and much loved of her neighbors. After this episode, Conrad, with his father and seven other brothers and sisters, stayed in Holland for a time. Finally, after many months of waiting, Queen Anne left them sail to New York. After Conrad and his family had spent many years of suffering in the colonies, war broke out. The people won the right to toil their own land and raise crops to keep from starving. Although Weiser never studied in Chmer as we do now in the modern world, his travels enabled him to study the languages and customs of many peoples. This qualified him for the great work of interpreter and peacemaker. -23- univl-A Left to Right-Row 1: Beverly Long, Anna May McGee, Harriett Lee Hoffa Gloria Duffy, Grace Auchenbach, Louise Franke, Nancy Brown, Shirley Straub, Margaret Stit- ley, Patricia Auman, Nancy Dissinger.

During this friendship, Weiser wished to acquire the land known as the juanitata region. This was the earthly Happy Hunting Grounds of the deer. Since hunting and fishing practically provided the Indians' only Acrivizier, they guarded their rights to this region jealously. The towering mountains and reaches of the Susquehanna provided poor shelter for the Canimals and the slashesj of the Allegheny slopes were unsuited for hunting. Only on the plateaus and in the foothills could the deer be tracked. But the gentler slopes of the Juniata, the gushing streams, the dense foliage and luxurious un- dergrowth of the Juniata Valley porvided a natural habitat for the fleet-footed creatures and a paradise for the Indians, whose main activities were hunting and fishing. ...35.- BAND . . .

I' Powder muskets used by Weiser for hunting, the most popular sport of his day E They are above the fireplace in Conrad Weiser's home. Spur-M At the Friends Meeting House, from August 1 to the 6th, 1740, the Indians con- ferred with Weiser and the authorities, concerning the problem of fur trade and the complaints' of the Indians that Weiser's Young Men had driven off all the game. Since hunting comprised about the only Sport the Indians could enjoy, the authorities agreed to the demands of the Indians in order to preserve the peace which now en- veloped eastern Pennsylvania. Honest Conrad never once failed to be present when duty called. In the midst of his miseries - for his daughter had just died after a long illness - he was solicitous for the welfare of others. If he was called for, he realized that, without the peace with the Indians, the welfare of the colonies would be in grave danger. Every effort was made to please the chiefs in order to hold them loyal during the war which was being waged by England against Spain, the sparks of which might set off a fire in the New World and cause the Indians to enjoy the sport of scalping and murdering. ..43..

Seniors who played their last game are: Louis Schwartz, Edwin Kershner, Gerald Schwartz, john Troutman, john Troutman, a newcomer from Stouchburg, who never played soccer before, did a Wonderful job of goal tending. Gerald Schwartz held the team scoring record for the season. We will miss the fine play and sportsmanship of these boys in the seasons to come. Special note must be taken of our own Harry Schaum, who received honorable mention for the county all-stars.

It is just beginning. Much practice and experience will be necessary to produce winning reams. Four games were played, two on the home court and two away games at Wer- nersville and Robesonia. These games gave the girls the experience needed in an actual game. Next year they will have a better understanding of the game. Womelsdorf has good material for future teams and, with practice, can produce a better team next year. Sportsmanship has been very much in evidence and the girls have learned to know and share these experiences with other Berks County girls. ...50..
