DEDICATIUN HEN the dark shrouds of war slowly began to engulf the world in the fall of 1939, many of us in America had not awakened to its true signi- ficance. VVhen planes droned over London, Liverpool, and scores of other cities, to rain destruction on helpless civilians helow, many of us still shrugged our shoulders and said, lt can't happen here. But when the air waves hummed with the story of Pearl Harhor, we knew that that war was inevitable, if we were to pre- serve our American way of life. In the weeks that slowly followed the surprise attack at Pearl Harbor, hopeful American families waited to hear from their loved ones, serving their nation across the ocean. When that message came, for some, its source was the United States government statingfuxve regret to inform you that your son died in action, December 7. Such was the news that came to the Zaczkiewicz family, whose son Nlarion was the first Doylestown High School graduate to pay the supreme sacrifice in VVorld VVar Il. He was a true American. To Marion Zaczkiewicz and all other students, alumni, and teachers of Doylestown High School who have joined the armed forces of our nation, either hy enlistment or through the Selective Service Act, we the editors of The 1942 Torch dedicate our yearbook.
