THE NEW "U. S. O." ROOM IN OUR Y. M. 0. A.—The comfortably furnished, cheerfully decorated TJ.S.O.
Room opened ten days ago at the Sewickley YMCA for the use of men in service. The reading, writing and
loafing room was done over and furnished by the Women's Committee of the YMCA and has a radio
and phonograph in addition to hooks, magazines and games. Local men home on furlough and members of
the Coast Guard have been using the room and other facilities of the 'Y' without charge.   Photo by Toia.

TO UNVEIL HONOR ROLL
A Short Service Planned for Sunday Afternoon
The Sewiekley Valley Honor Koll has been
erected on the landscaped lot at the corner of
Beaver and Broad Streets, and is to be formally
unveiled and dedicated at a religious and
patriotic service next Sunday afternoon beginning at 2:30. It is planned that the Sewickley
High School band will lead a procession of participants, visiting service units and guests up
Broad Street from the Legion headquarters to
the site, where the service is to take place.
There will be chairs for the honor guests,
and the burgesses and representatives of the
several boroughs and townships of the territory
included in the Roll — Edgeworth, Osborne,
Sewickley Heights,  Haysville,  Glenfield,   and
Aleppo. There will be chairs for the participants and guests and for older persons present;
and traffic will be detoured from this corner
during the service.
As planned, the National Anthem will be followed by an invocation by Rev. Henry R.
Browne of Shields; Julian Williams and a
chorus of church choirs will lead the audience in
"America" and several war songs; an address
by Rev. Louis M. Hirshson, and then presentation of the Honor Roll by John C. Hiteshew,
chairman of tlie Sewickley Civilian Defense
Council; acceptance by Burgess Charles A.
Woods of Sewickley; and the formal unveiling
by Rev. Lockhart Amerman of the Defense
Council and a delegation of service men.
In case of bad weather, the program will be
cancelled except for the actual unveiling.
The names included on the Honor Roll have
been carefully listed by the committee in
charge. Charles H. Baton, chairman, with the
help of several weeks' publication in The Herald and the corrections and additions received
from week to week. It can hardly be hoped
that it is even yet complete up to this date, and
other names will of course be added as time
goes on; information should be sent to Mr.
Eaton at his home, 720 Maple Lane, or in care
of The Herald, to be placed before the committee for approval at its next meeting.
As planned by the committee, it is desired to
include all names of men actually in active service with the II. S.. armed forces, who are or
have been residents of the territory served by
Sewiekley High School or who have mother,
father or other close relative living in that
territory.
