Children at the Los Angeles Orphans' Home at 815 No. El Centro Ave. pose with their bicycles presented to them by the January graduates of Los Angeles High School, on December 20, 1954. More than 30 bicycles were repolished and repaired by the students for the youngsters at the orphanage as part of the high school's gift for Christmas. Members of the class gather in the background.
