Notes Newscopy: "War and its consequences are serious and real among San Francisco high school students, all of whom have seen fellow students, graduating seniors, don Army drab or Navy blue. Many such seniors already have died in the service of their country. High School of Commerce has inaugurated the impressive ceremony pictured above to honor 12 of its graduates thus far killed in action, daily reveille and retreat, to be continued for the duration. One thousand former Commerce students are in Armed forces.".
