This framed scroll hangs in the St. John Henry Newman Catholic Church (formerly St. Thomas Aquinas Church) located on the University of Toronto campus. The pre-printed template was designed by A.J. Casson. “For King and Country Members of Newman Club of the University of Toronto Who Have Volunteered for Active Service with Canada’s Fighting Forces”. The roll of service contains a total of 289 names written in calligraphy. The service roll is not dated and contains no key, but it is known after the fact that at least nine of the individuals listed therein lost their lives in the Second World War (at least 6 in the Canadian and 3 in the American forces).

The Soldiers’ Tower was built by the University of Toronto Alumni Association in 1924 as a memorial to the Great War of 1914-1918. The names of those who died in that conflict are carved on the Memorial Screen at photo left. After the Second World War, more names were carved in the Memorial Arch at the Tower’s base. In total, almost 1200 names are inscribed. A Memorial Room inside the Tower contains mementoes and artifacts, and a 51-bell carillon serves as the audio element of the living memorial to the alumni, students, faculty and staff who died in the World Wars. The Soldiers’ Tower is the site of an annual Service of Remembrance. Photo: Kathy Parks, Alumni Relations.
