Lichtenstein grew up in Rogers Park and went to what then was called Lane Tech

It is still called Lane Tech by most everyone alive today. Wonder where this writer and or editor are from.

The HS was named after Albert Grannis Lane, a CPS Superintendent in the 1890s.

It opened as Albert Grannis Lane Manual Training High School.

In 1934, it was renamed Albert Grannis Lane Technical High School

In 2004, it was renamed Albert Grannis Lane Technical College Prep High School.

He attended UW Madison. I don't believe he grew up in the area.

that confused me too. I thought maybe they had just recently changed it so Jean Baptiste Point du Sable Lane Tech.

This is a good story of a baseball lifer. He worked for the Rays for 18 years for those who wanted us to poach more coaches from that system.

Pretty cool how he ended up in the movie "The Babe" as pitcher Charlie Root on the mound as The Babe ( John Goodman) points his bat towards the Wrigley Field bleachers in the 1932 World Series for the infamous called shot HR.

EX UIC pitcher now the pitching coach at AAA Charlotte.
