Description
Photograph was edited for publication purposes
Photograph article dated March 30, 1963 partially reads, "Dr. Roy McKeown has a special job to do - to corral the enthusiasm of youth. Dr. McKeown, who prefers to call himself a youth specialist, has assumed the presidency of Teen World International, a teen service organization which works inside the church and missionary societies to develop leadership among people working with youths. For 17 years the ordained Baptist minister, a resident of Granada Hills, has served youth as president of Youth For Christ International. Before that he spent 12 years as executive director of Greater Los Angeles Youth For Christ. Both Protestant groups have as their major function the enlistment of young people, particularly teens, into the cause of Christ."
