The American Legion Smith-Reynolds Post 14 dedicates its new building on East 13th street between Broadway and C Street in Vancouver, Washington. The Elks put on the program. They estimated between 3,000 and 4,000 people attended. Memorial Hall was used as a community center, meeting hall and swimming pool for the residents of Vancouver. Prior to its construction several children were drowned swimming in the Columbia River less than a mile away. Permission to use this photograph was given to the American Legion by Pat Jollota, Author and Historian.
