In the spring of 1941 Mr. Torreyson was nominated and elected to membership on the.Board of Education, for the Prospect Heights area and has served the community in this capacity since that date.

Shortly afterward he was prevailed upon to become teacher of the high school age class and leader of the Youth Fellowship Group. In spite of all thefse civic duties Mr. Torreyson finds time to putter around the house, run a fine, vegetable and fruit garden, and to devote many hours to astronomy.
