WWII POW will speak at senior center Monday

Robert Goldsworthy, a retired major general and World War II hero, will speak at 10 a.m. on Monday at the Southside Senior Activity Center, 3151 S. Ray St.

Goldsworthy, who was born in Rosalia, was piloting a B-29 bomber named the Rosalia Rocket over Japan in December 1944 when he was shot down and taken prisoner.

He endured beatings and malnourishment, but returned to the Inland Northwest after the war and now lives on the South Side.
