A service plaque was presented to the school by the Summer Class of 1943 and has been maintained since then by the voluntary contributions of students now in school. On this are engraved the names of graduates in the service in so far as information has been received about them. The following branches of service contain these totals up to the present time. - Army 134 Navy 89 Army Air Corps 39 Navy Air corps 8 Marines 8 Coast Guard 20 SPECIAL RECOGNITION Distinguished Flying Service Cross and Air Medal for Meritm-iouis Achievement in Aerial Flight, Captain William E. Keefer. Silver Star, Lieutenant Louis S. Zamperini. Cited for Bravery by the United States Navy, Addison Smith, Q M. 2c, and Robert Emerson, Ph. M. 2c. The Torrance News Torch has been sent to all former students of Tor- rance High whose address was known- Voluntary contributions of students and townspeople provided for this.

Within the realm of memory, there is prepared for everyone a trans- cription of his past school life, a record which brings back to him whenever he desires it a review of former school experiences. The thrills, the sorrows the ambitions, the joys, the disappointments, the achievements are all there in memory, ready to respond to any summons you wish to make. It is my sincere hope that your educational investment at Torrance High School is sufficiently strong to insure for you a confident welcome wherever you go, whether it be into a challenging career of tomorrow or into a relaxing memory of yesterday. , HAROLD E. PERRY
