From a Sound Off in todays R-C (which I do not -- repeat -- do not edit) regarding immigrants. In addition to suggesting that the Ravenna Arsenal would be a great place for a tent city for immigrants, the writer also comments: They dont speak English. How are they gonna go to school? I wish the writer had met my Dad, who didnt speak a word of English when he was enrolled in First Ward School in Bellaire, Ohio in 1931 at the age of 6, and somehow managed to graduate from high school at the age of 17. He also went on to do a couple of other things that werent too shabby for an immigrant, and one who was an unaccompanied minor, too.
