Klder Petersen has served as president of the West European Missions of the Church. He was associated with the Descret News, pioneer daily newspaper in Salt Lake City, for more than Kiwanis Club Has Jess Walker as Speaker Saturday Jess Walker, public relations head of Alpine ;School District, was the featured speaker at the recent Kiwanis Club of Plcas-jant Plcas-jant Grove meeting. Harvey Rawlinson, teacher at Pleasant Grove Junior High School, was made a new member mem-ber of the club. Rex Gourley presented the membership pin and orientation lecture. Key Club members Stuart , Schow and Mark Washburn were among the special guests present. Mr. Walker explained that 40 , per cent of the population from the , Point of the Mountain to ' Provo, was in school, and re-" re-" quires 40 buses to transport the " 5,500 children to 'ana from school daily. Alpine School District Dis-trict spends $1,000,000 per year for. buildings. Fifty per cent of our students go to college, and one-half of those who do go to college, graduate. Mr. Walker stressed that . some solution to school drop- -. outs was required. Another interesting in-teresting point was that 20 per cent of our adult population in Alpine School District were taking tak-ing adult education classes. Stressing that the usual work- er must be re-trained three to seven times during his working . life, Mrv Walker stressed vocational vo-cational "training." He pointed out that mosL educators are academically oriented, and that even our vocational schools are geared for the more advanced students. Having worked in industry and business prior to his career car-eer in, education, Mr. Walker says he is impressed with the - dedication of people in educa- - tion. He praised the school board in Alpine School District as being one of the most efficient, effic-ient, able, dollar conscious Li. -. boards in the state. He stated Alpine District is most fortun- ate to have such able manag- - , ers and administrators "Like father like soh,' they say, and I suppose there's more -than a grain of truth to that venerable axiom. As I recall, my Dad always kept his promises.- Over the 36 years J was privileged to associate asso-ciate with him, he religiously gave me what he- promised." This held truewhether the . promise .wasfox..a new pair of- "overalls or a "licking" for my ; infractions of his rigid Pioneer -code of cthic3. - . .
