Corrected high school class graduation ranking

Latest comment: 1 year ago1 comment1 person in discussion

I corrected class graduation to 325 out of 350 based upon viewing the already cited book "Yellow journalism : scandal, sensationalism, and gossip in the media" which states he graduated 325th out of 350 on page 99. The source cited in the book for that info is no longer retrievable. I also corroborated that class ranking by citing a LA Times article from March 24, 1997 by Jerry Lazar that also states he graduated 325 out of 350. 2600:1700:5E91:5F:59B7:D13A:ED40:1863 (talk) 23:47, 11 July 2025 (UTC)Reply
