That kid sounds like a gem!

 

[jeff of pa]

I'm curious if he ever grew up , and what happened . unfortunately, the Name
Tommy probably left him by the time he hit the paper again or his teens, if he made it.

Then ya Got Thomas, Tom & T. Ruby to deal with along with not knowing
if he moved from Chambersburg or the age of every Thomas, Tom & T. Ruby
who made the paper dead or alive , in cuffs, or in government

I wondered the same thing, you know the kid went on to bigger and better things!

I did Check & Jack Ruby was Older, His middle name was Not Thomas,
Jack Leon Ruby (born Jacob Leon Rubenstein; April 25, 1911
which also throws the Rubenstein name out there for consideration

Beauty NJearthman, good research! I figured he tried to apply at Zippo Lighters and was rejected!
