ROBERT WALTERS MR ROBERT BEATTY Attendance Co-ordinator Director of Guidance GUIDANCE STIMULATED OUR THINKING Mr. Robert Walters, the attendance co- ordinator, earned his B.S., and M.Ed., at the Pennsylvania State University and University of Pittsburgh respectively. Besides the iob of improving school attendance, for the past eleven years he has been an assistant football coach. During his leisure time sports-minded Mr. Walters took an active part in Little League baseball. Last summer he occupied the posi- tion of manager of the Braves team. Golfing on the greens occasionally was his hobby. We admired Mr. Walters for his competency and altruistic manner. Patient, polite, soft-spoken, and helpful- characterized Mr. Robert Beatty, the director of guidance for Penn's secondary schools. For many students he laid the foundations for their future plans and dreams in addition to instilling in them good ideas and ideals. A conference appointment could be made with him at any hour in order to cope with their problems of scholarship, scheduling, credits, or personality. Mr. Beatty procured his B.S., from Indiana State Teachers College and his M.Ed., from the University of Pittsburgh. His home, family, and educational interests occu- pied the majority of his time after school hours. To Mr. Walters office students went to keep attend- ance records straight and to get tardy excuses. After the Kuder Preference test was completed by iuniors, Mr. Beatty visited classes to give advice about careers.
