Went to Hammond Tech High School. Known as being a quick diminutive player around the Chicago and Hammond area, I am pretty certain the information of his birth and death is accurate. I'd like to see an obituary to confirm, but cannot find the Hammond Times from October of 1954. I am going to declare it so and hopefully one day find the obituary to confirm. Born to Geraldand Margaret Stack He married Selma Scholz on May 7, 1938.
