High-School Graduates in Service

Abstract

the vicinity of the school after graduation. The local newspapers furnish a great deal of information, and clippings have been kept of servicemen's activities. Friends and teachers, too, have supplied information. Many of the boys in service have written letters to thank the school for Christmas cards which have been mailed to each man every Christmas since Pearl Harbor, and these letters have supplied information about ratings and locations. Finally, the warm relationship between the alumni and the school has brought the boys back to school during their furloughs. More than half of them have been back to visit teachers at least once. As of V-E Day, 670 men were in service, out of the i,oo8 boys who were graduated during the past nineteen years. (None of the servicemen from Canoga Park High School was over thirty-nine years of age, and a few were still seventeen.) Only about a dozen of these boys were in service at the time of Pearl Harbor. Eighty per cent of the boys who were graduated during the past ten years were in active service. Ninety per cent of the men nineteen to twenty-three years of age were in service, and only half of the remaining io per cent were actually known to be out of service. The status of the others was unknown, as was that of most of the older men
