Early Economic History (5) Schertz Fine Arts. The motion also recommended that
Committee assignments be tabled until next months Committee meeting. The
motion was seconded by Earl Sawyer. Vote was unanimous. Motion carried.
It was the Committee's suggestion that the Subcommittee more clearly defme the
roles of the officers identified in the organizational structure plan. The
Subcommittee will pursue providing position descriptions and will report back to
the Committee.
2. Purchasing Department - Discussion regarding purchasing procedures for the
Schertz Historical Preservation Committee. (K. Lewinski)
Kim Lewinsky, Schertz City Procurement Officer, spoke to the Committee about
the need for the Committee to abide by City of Schertz purchasing rules when
making purchases for Committee projects. Mrs. Lewinski suggested the
committee formulate a budget that will identify future needs and have that budget
approved by City Council. She indicated that Mr. Bob Cantu has been designated
as a City liaison with the Committee for handling future purchasing issues. She
advised that Mr. Cantu can coordinate high end and less expensive purchases and
use the City procurement process to save the City money. Mrs. Lewinski related
that Mr. Cantu was an appointed purchasing agent of the City and as such has a
City credit card that allows him to make purchases as needed up to a certain dollar
threshold.
Chairman Weirtz explained that his experience with making Committee purchases
for Visitor Center and History Museum projects is that there are purchases
needing to be make on a near daily basis in small dollar amounts for multiple
purposes/projects. He offered the example of the currently pending 64 display
exhibits being worked on for the Schertz Visitors Center. Each of these displays
has involved multiple expenditures for things ranging from photocopying, display
mounting, frame making, matting, painting, glass purchase and cutting, etc. The
purchasing activity to support these projects is done as the need arises and usually
on a short notice basis as the project is being worked. Chairman Weirtz believes
having to submit individual requisitions for purchase to the City for small dollar
amounts (service or supplies) will not be justifiable by the cost savings, will be
time consuming and very cumbersome.
Mrs. Lewinski indicated that the City will seek to identify sources for the various
types of supplies and/or services being used by the Committee and make those
sources known to the Committee so that they can be used when needs arise. She
Schertz Historical Preservation Committee Minutes - March 19, 2009

believes existing contacts with vendors will serve the Committee's and the City's
needs well.
Lou Foehrkolb suggested that federal procurement procedures allow for agents of
the government to be appointed as procurement agents with authority to expended
funds up to a certain dollar threshold. He asked if the City has such an
arrangement, and, if so, could the City appoint Chairman Weirtz as a procurement
agent with limited expenditure authority while working on the Visitor Center and
Museum projects. Mrs. Lewinski identified Mr. Cantu as such an agent but she
did not know if Chairman Weirtz could be so designated. She will discuss this
possibility with Mr. Cantu and others. Mr. Foehrkolb asked Mrs. Lewinski if she
thought that the Committee could use funds being raised by the Committee's book
sales project for routine purchases without having to undertake the requisition
procedures she outlined.
Mayor Baldwin inteJjected that such would be unlikely unless the Committee
were a 501 C3 non-profit organization completely free of City sponsorship and
fmancial support.
Mrs. Lewinski reemphasized the need for the Committee to develop a budget for
group and individual projects. Mrs. Lewinski was advised that the Committee
(through Chairman Weirtz) had initiated requests with the Assistant City Manager
David Harris to assist the Committee with information as to procedures for
integrating the Committee's already existing budget with that of the City during
the upcoming City budget call.
Mrs. Lewinski advised that her office was soon to inherit temperature controlled
space that will allow the Committee an area where future history museum
furniture and/or exhibits can be stored. She is not certain as to the exact date the
space will be available but it should be within the next few weeks.
Chairman Weirtz indicated that there are expense vouchers still needing to be paid
by the City for expenditures made prior to this meeting date and under the rules
established in the Committee By-laws. Those expenses will be forwarded to the
City for payment. Hereafter, all purchases will be pursued via coordination with
Bob Cantu.
3. Minutes - Discussion and/or action regarding the approval of the minutes of the
Regular Meeting of February 19,2009 and reconsider approval of the January 15,
2009 amended minutes.

Page 4
Committee minutes for meetings held January 15, 2009 and February 19, 2009
were considered for approval. The January 15, 2009 minutes were being
reconsidered from their consideration in February 2009 due to errors in reporting.
Tom DeKunder made a motion (seconded by Lula Mae Sche~ to accept the
January minutes with an addition of the name of Beverly Jove as a guest. The
motion pass unanimously. Earl Sawyer made a motion (seconded by Tom
DeKender) to accept the February minutes with addition of the name of Beverly
Jobe as a guest. The motion passed unanimously.
4. Committee By-Laws - Consideration and/or action regarding amendments to the
Historical Preservation Committee By-Laws.
Chairman Weirtz introduced suggested changes to the Committee By-laws that
included number changes to Articles XIII and XIV (change to XII and XIII,
respectively). Subdivide Article XII into two sections and change the language of
the article to that contained in the attached Amendment to By-laws letter, dated
March 9,2009. Andreas Wooten made a motion to accept the By-law changes as
proposed. Lula Mae Schertz seconded the motion. The vote was unanimous. The
motion carried.
5. News Publication - Consideration and/or action regarding proposed news article
publication.
Consideration was given to approving two news articles (attached) for submission
to the Weekly Herald that publicize historic events within the Schertz community
and seek support for book sales and museum contributions. A motion to authorize
submission of the articles to the newspaper was made by Rose Ackermann,
seconded by Earl Sawyer and unanimously approved by the Committee
membership.
6. Museum Purchase - Consideration and/or action regarding museum quality
spinning wheel & Loom purchase.
Chairman Weirtz reported on an offer by a citizen in Fredericksburg, Texas (patsy
Hauptrief) to sell the Committee a spinning wheel and a loom for use and display
in The Schertz Historical Museum. The loom and the spinning wheel are in
perfect condition and are fully operational. The loom and bench were made by a
wood craftsman using the measurements from an Ashford loom. There are two
new stainless reeds, some shuttles and miscellaneous items that go along with the
loom and wheel. It would be set up and ready for weaving when delivered. The
seller is asking $700 for both items.
Schertz Historical Preservation Committee Minutes - March 19, 2009
Page 5
Chairman Weirtz advised that these items would be set up in the museum among
the early settlers displays and would serve as working instruments for educating
students and citizens about the lives and activities/commerce of early settlers.
Live demonstrations could be presented during special museum events.
Chairman Weirtz has examined e-bay for comparable items and has discovered
that looms of this size have asking prices ranging from $400 to $3,000.00. He
was unable to discover costs for a spinning wheel but would expect those to cost
about $400 to $1,000.00.
Tom DeKunder made the motion that the Committee request approval from the
City to purchase the spinning wheel and the loom. The motion was seconded by
Earl Sawyer. The full Committee passed the motion unanimously. (photo of the
spinning wheel and loom attached along with comparable cost advertising from
the Internet)
7. Fund Expenditures - Consideration and/or action regarding committee fund
expenditures.
Expense vouchers were submitted for Committee approval by Chairman Weirtz
($333.30) and Gail Hyatt ($78.36). Earl Sawyer made a motion to allow the
expense vouchers to be accepted for submission and payment. Debbie Krause
seconded the motion. The Committee voted unanimously to approve both voucher
submissions.
Debbie Krause announced that she too had some expenses to submit but was not
ready to submit until she can obtain a receipt from the seller of the goods.
8. Committee Issues - Consideration and/or action regarding committee issues to be
presented to the City Manager. (B.Cantu)
The presenter for this issue (John Cantu) was not present at the meeting. Tom
DeKunder made a motion to table the matter indefmitely. Lula Mae Schertz
seconded the motion. The Committee passed the motion unanimously.
9. Storage Facility - Consideration and/or action approving a temporary storage
facility for the historical items purchased by the Committee. (G. Hyatt)
Lou Foehrkolb made a motion to table the issue indefinitely since there has been a
offer by the City (Kimberly Lewinsky) to provide storage space. Rose
Ackermann seconded the motion. The motion was passed by unanimous vote of
the Committee.

10. Borders Book Store Royalties - Consideration and/or action regarding
reconsideration of committee approval at meeting of January 15, 2009 to allow
Borders Book Store to receive a $3.00 royalty for each book sold.
Chairman Weirtz explained that the draft of the January 15, 2009 Committee
minutes failed to report that the Committee agreed that any arrangement for sale
of the Schertz History Book at Borders Book Store would need to be approved by
the Schertz City Council.
Chairman Weirtz further reported that the City Secretary had advised that any
motion involving a Committee action should be occurring during Committee
deliberations for per-published agenda listed items rather that during discussions
of sub-committee reports. Chairman Weirtz advised that the minutes of the
January 15, 2009 meeting have been revised to properly reflect the Committee's
recommended actions.
A motion was made by Earl Sawyer to accept the earlier proposal to take the
matter before the City Council should there ever be interest shown by Borders
Books. Debbie Krause seconded the motion. The Committed passed the motion
unanimously.

SUBJECT: Amendment to the Committee By-laws
In accordance with Article VIII, Section 8.1 of the subject By-laws, the following amendment to the By-
laws is offered for consideration and vote at the next Committee meeting on March 19,2009:
RE: ARTICLE XIII
Change # 1 - Correct the Article number from its current "XIII" to "XII" to make the
Article consistent in number with all preceding Articles.
Change #2 - Subdivide the Article into Section numbers 12.1 and 12.2
Change #3 - Change the language of the Article to read as follows:
"Section 12.1 The Committee Chairperson and/or a subcommittee appointed by the
Chairperson shall develop a proposed budget for approval by the full Committee that covers Committee
expenses for the period October 1st of the current year to September 31st of the following year. The
budget document will at a minimum contain the 'CategorylElement of Expense' preceded by a numerical
designator for that category/element, 'Funding Allotted', and 'Funds Expended' captions. The proposed
budget will be submitted to the full Committee for approval at the August Committee meeting. A two-
thirds vote of approval by Committee members present and voting will be required for passage of the
budget.
"Section 12.2 The allocation of funds between each 'CategorylElement of Expense'
shall be subject to adjustment throughout the budget period as the Committee identifies the need for such
adjustments. All allocation adjustments shall be presented to the Committee for vote prior to being
undertaken. A two-thirds vote of Committee members present and voting will be required for passage of
an allocation adjustment. Costs of items not readily identifiable with a prescribed 'CategorylElement of
. Expense' will be assigned to the 'Miscellaneous' category. Should expenditures of anyone
'CategorylElement of Expense' become exhausted prior to the close of the budget cycle, an allocation
adjustment between that category and another will be allowable in order to assure continued funds
availability for those type expenses. Should budget allocation adjustments be made during the budget year
they will be recorded both in the Committee minutes as votes are recorded and in the Committee's Annual
Report as adjusted 'Allocated Funding' figures with a footnote to designate the date of Committee approval
for the adjustment".
RE: ARTICLE XIV
Change #1 - Correct Article number from its current "XIV" designation to "XIII" to make it
consistent in number with all preceding Articles.
The above changes/additions were necessary to correct Article numbering and to include provisions for
budget submission that correspond to City budget periods as well as provide flexibility for budget
management. Please review these proposed amendments prior to our next meeting and be prepared to vote
on them.

Schertz's Famous Post WW II Resident
"The Rest of The Story"
By: Schertz Historical Preservation Committee
As the recently deceased writer and famous radio commentator Paul Harvey would say, "
and now the rest of the story".
Recent articles in the Northeast Herald ("Space flight was among Clamann's
contribution", February 26,2009 and "Clamann instrumental in manned space flight",
March 5,2009) reported on Hans-Georg Clamann, a German scientist and branch chief of
the Institute of Aviation Medicine in Berlin during WW II and post-War scientist
assigned to the American space medicine program. Clamann was one of many German
scientists brought to America under "Operation Paperclip", an operation designed to take
advantage of the German scientific knowledge base developed during the War years.
Randolph Air Force Base was the seat of aviation medicine at the time and the selected
assignment location for Clamann and many of the other scientists that had worked on
aerospace medicine for the German War effort. Clamann's Director of Aerospace
Medicine at Randolph was Dr. Hubertus Strughold, also a German captured scientist
transferred to Randolph in 1947. Clamann established his residence in Converse while
Dr. Strughold became a resident of Schertz. Dr. Strughold may well be Schertz's most
famous and controversial resident.
By the middle of the 1950s the Air Force was pursuing the possibility of manned space
flight. There were many problems facing man's move into space and Dr. Strughold and
his team of scientists were studying the medical issues at the Air Force School of
Aviation Medicine at Randolph Air Force Base. In 1949, Dr. Strughold was named
Director of Space Medicine. In November 1959, a new Aerospace Medical Center
opened at Brooks Air Force Base, San Antonio and space medicine research centered at
that facility where Dr. Strughold set up operations as Chief Scientist. He remained at
Brooks until his retirement in 1968. During his tenure at Brooks, Dr. Strughold was
recognized for hundreds of scientific accomplishments and was eventually dubbed the
"Father of Space Medicine." His accomplishments led to the aerospace library at Brooks
being named in his honor and his inclusion in a mural of medical heroes at Ohio State
University. But as is often said, "fame can be a fleeting thing."
Controversy followed Dr. Strughold throughout his career as an American scientist. His
position as head of the German Air Force's Institute of Aviation Medicine during WW II
caused questions regarding his role in experimental testing of prisoners of war from
Dachau concentration camp. One Jewish group, the World Jewish Congress, said that
placing him alongside such giants as Marie Curie and Hippocrates is a "historical
obscenity." Dr. Strughold denied allegations that he ever supported Adolf Hitler or that
he was affiliated with Hitler. One Schertz resident who was Hubertus's neighbor and
who worked with him, Oskar Langner, supported Strughold's claim that he had no Nazi
connections. But leaders of the San Antonio Jewish Federation claimed that he was a
(lit -#:J
Nazi war criminal. The Federation based its claim on the fact that a U.S. Army
Intelligence Agency's 1945 Central Registry of War Criminals and Security Suspects
listed Strughold as one of those being sought. The Army Intelligence Agency did capture
Strughold but then decided to recruit him for the American space program rather than
holding him for trial by the Nuremberg war crimes tribunal. The group, citing a document
it obtained from the Nuremberg tribunal that said Strughold was one of 95 doctors at an
October 1942 conference sponsored by the German Air Force's medical service to
discuss medical experiments on concentration camp inmates. One of the Nuremberg
defendants allegedly told the tribunal that Strughold knew of the concentration camp
experiments and could have stopped them at any time because he headed the institute that
conducted them. The Jewish group stated that the Justice Department had initiated steps
to prosecute Strughold and deport him from America for engaging in persecution, but the
proceedings were dropped when he died in 1986.
Based on the Jewish groups disclosures regarding Strughold, Ohio State University
removed his likeness from the mural of medical heroes situated at the University Medical
School. The Brooks Air Force Aerospace Library retains his name.
In closing, Mr. Harvey would say, "And now you know the rest of the story." But there
is more to this and other stories about Schertz and its residence. Those stories can he
found in the recently released history of Schertz published by the Schertz Historical
Preservation Committee. Copies of the Schertz history titled: Schertz. Texas - A StOry of
Great Ancestry. Legacy and Development, can be purchased at the Schertz Public Library
or at the Schertz City Hall (Water Department) or bye-mailing weirtzl@yahoo.com.
Schertz Historical Preservation Group Seeks Museum Support
By: Schertz Historical Preservation Committee
At the March 19,2009 meeting of the Schertz Historical Preservation Committee plans
were laid for the development of a Cibolo Valley - Schertz historical museum that will
feature heritage related exhibits (photos, artifacts, documents, etc.) from as far back as
the early 19th century. The idea is to provide western Guadalupe County with a venue for
revealing the story, through displays, of its rich and varied history. According to Dean
Weirtz, Chairman of the Schertz Historical Preservation Committee, some of that history
has been told in a recently released book by the Committee that tells how early settlers
arrived in the area of SchertzlCibolo and how the community grew to its present
circumstance. Now, according to Weirtz, the Committee wants to bring to the
community a greater since of belonging by showcasing its history and heritage in the
form of physical displays of early life in the area and developments leading up to today's
modern community. The museum's purpose will be to help educate citizens and students
as to past and present contributors and achievements that have produced meaningful
progress throughout the community. Once in place, the museum will periodically
feature guest exhibitors and/or presenters on topics of historical interest to the citizens.
The museum is to be housed in the existing Schertz Public Library Building on Schertz
Parkway. That building will transition to a shared activity building once the library is
moved to its new location next door in about July 2009. Between now and that time the
Historical Preservation Committee is seeking public support for the museum
development through donations of artifacts, furnishings, photographs, documents or other
historical material that may fit any of the various exhibit display areas planned. Some of
the exhibit themes being considered by the Committee include: native American (Indian)
gallery, early pioneer lifestyles gallery, family genealogy gallery, farming practices
gallery, school development gallery, post office development gallery, urban renewal
gallery, railroad gallery, artistic gallery, cultural traditions gallery, and Randolph Air
Base gallery.
Citizens who would like to donate materials to the museum development effort or who
would like to work with the Committee on the development of the museum can do so by
contacting Mr. Weirtz at telephone 210-651-0394 or via e-mail at weirtzl@yahoo.com.
If you would like to learn more about the history of the Cibolo Valley Settlement area,
Mr. Weirtz recommends obtaining a copy of the recently published book on its history
published by the Committee. The book is available for sale at the Schertz Public Library
or at the Schertz City Hall (Water Dept.) or by contacting Mr. Weirtz at the above phone
number and/or e-mail address. Proceeds from the book's sale go toward the museum
development effort.

loom (an 8 and 10 dent), but haven't used them. I will also have some
shuttles and misc other items that will go along with the loom and wheel.
It will be setup and weaving when it is delivered to you.
My asking price for the complete setup is $700.00. Please let me know if
you have any questions and comments.
