I'm a '57 Grad of RHS. We had our 50th Reunion last year. I'll send you a personal e-mail to obtain your snail-mail address. I have photo's, booklets, some of our school newspapers and even some bricks as the school is being torn down.

I remember attending "Garfield Skills Center" in Roosevelt High School in the '70s.

Will sommeone help me out here. There were two restaurants (hang-outs) on Third St. - northeast corner - the Sugar Bowl and the Teddie Bear. I was told the other day that People's Theater was in between them, and I don't remember that (Senior moment). I thought the theater was on the opposite (south) side of Third. Please give me the layout, i.e. which was on the corner, etc. Thanx.

I went to Roosevelt between getting suspended from Chaminade in 1954-1957 when they expelled me so I could join the Army.
I remember the two places on the Nirtheast side. there was a movie house about a block down on the other side near Western Ave.
I don't remember a movie house next to the eating places. We used to go there and play pinball during lunch.

The Teddy Bear was at 1923 W. Third and the Peoples Theatre was at 1931. I don't remember the Sugar Bowl, but a 1955 directory show it a 18 N. Perry st.

While looking around one day, I saw a large bunch of stuff on Roosevelt -- someplace maybe like Rootsweb, but it may also have been an independent site.
Roosevelt fans might try running some searches (and let others here know). :-)
