BUILDING OF SWIMMING POOL IN TORRANCE URGED BY SAM HAVES IN ADDRESS

Sam Hayes, of radio fame, came to Torrance last Thurs­ day night and talked "right dnwn the alley" of thousands of school students and a majority of the civic leaders of Torrnnee.

He came right out for a swimming pool OH the mostpractical and beneficial "Living*———————————————-———War Memorial" for Torrahce. ['"" ........................ „,,,.._

Interviewed after his tall:, hsaid he had no advance infoi(nation of the growing demanin Torrance for a swimmingpool, but the fact that It willbe written into the propoac-1bond Issue program for Tor­ rance virtually was assured afterhe made his plea for the swim­ ming pool.

Plans of the city for a recrr^ation building for central T<rrnce Include provisions In tbasement for the swimming pool,but not actually for the pool.Pressure will be put on "the cityto provide, for the pool itself, asa result of Hayes stirring talk.

•If the United States Is to bestrong enough to face futurewars, we must be physically'it," Hayes declared. "Failure toteach our men in the sc

to swim meant the loss ofmore men than any otner cause,during World War II."

Thus he strongly urged thjmilding of swimming pools forthe purpose of making youthihysically fit and teaching himn swim to save his own life.inly 30 percent of the men inhe service knew how to swim,

he declared, and with much oflie war being fought on or fromhe water, in beach landings, !t

meant an unnecessary, tragic oss of life.

Hayes pointed out that the City of Oakland has six swim ming pools.

He said that the people of x>ne Pine wanted a swimming 100! so badly that they got t [ether and spent nights and weekends on the project and >u!lt it with their own hands."If the people of Lone Pine

an do this, think what the eople of Torrance can do; with :s resources."Hays spoke under the sponsor-

hip of the Rotary club com-ned meeting with the Lions

nd Klwanls clubs In the Civic uditorium, under the auspices f the American Commission for iving War Memorials.Local civic leaders ami city

fflcials, talking with Hayes fter the meeting, informed, him lat the students of Torrance

ilgh school, Torrance and Fern venue elementary schools, voted lore than two to one, In a pleb- icite suggested by the Torrance [crald, In favor of a swimming ool over a skating rfn-<.

Here's one cfcbt you get paid for paying!

PART OF THE DEBT we owe our fighting men we can't repay. But part of it, we can.

We can see that when they come home they get a decent job and a decent place to live. If they're wounded, we can ma.ke sure they get the finest medical care and any other help that we can give.

The easiest, most effective way to pay this part of our debt is to buy extra Bonds in the Victory Loan.

And when you pay your debt this way, YOU actually get paid for doing it!

For in 10 years, you'll get all your money back—with inter­ est. With interest, and without risk—for Victory Bonds are the world's safest investment.

FOR YOUR FIGHTING MAN—for your own sake—for your Country—buy EXTRA Bonds!

Following the Victory Loan, the sale of E, F, and G U. S. Savings Bonds will continue through regular authorization agencies and through the Payroll Savings Plan.
