Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.

Roosevelt High School Has Some Noted Alumni

I looked up Theodore Roosevelt High School (hence the nickname Rough Riders)  in Chicago to find out more about them.  The school has been in existence since the 1920s and has some really notable alumni.

Author Nelson Algren

Director, screen write and Academy Award winner Carl Foreman "High Noon," "Bridge Over the River Kwai" and "Guns of Navaronne."

Comedian George Goebel

Poet and author Shel Silverstein "Where the Sidewalk Ends" and good pal of Lake Erie's Pat Dailey.

Chicago TV and radio personality Bob Sirott

Former White Sox organist Nancy Faust.  She is the one who really brought the organ into sports for entertainment.
