She loved. Those good feelings lasted just nine months-or until Sears learned that the lot next door had actually been rezoned two years before so the owner, the developer and hip-hop record producer Rudy Acosta, could build a huge house. He planned to put up a 44-foot-high, approximately 7,000-square-foot structure festooned with turrets and battlements-in other words, a house that resembled a medieval castle, only without the moat.The castle would dwarf Sears’s house-2,100 feet square and 26 feet high-and would be dramatically out of scale with the other houses in the neighborhood. Sears was aghast. She set out to discover how this had happened, with the hope that she might prevent the castle from being built.So far, she and her neighbors have failed-construction got under way last November-but their efforts have opened a window on Chicago’s zoning procedures and the questionable circumstances and interlocking relationships that led to this case. “I wouldn’t want that house built next to my house,” says Margaret Laurino, the alderman for the 39th Ward, which now includes the Independence Park neighborhood after redistricting. Laurino says that if she had been in office when the lot came up for rezoning, she would have opposed the change. But in the Kafkaesque world of Chicago zoning, even Rudy Acosta is angry over the events so far. In a recent obscenity-salted interview, Acosta vented his frustrations with the neighborhood residents and with Laurino, claiming that he had followed all the rules and shouldn’t have had to face so many obstacles, including the denial of a variance that would have allowed him to build closer to Sears’s house. “Alderman [Michael] Wojcik signed off on the rezoning,” says Acosta. “Laurino was in full support of the variance until the neighbors got upset.” (Acosta claims Laurino even sent him a letter of

The scene appears to have been set up on a sound stage, but considering the open flame (if it truly is), then perhaps the photo was shot at the Rocks.It would have been a BW publicity photograph that was subsequently colorized for the lobby card. The numbers "57-409" in the lower right-hand corner mean this was the 409th film handled in 1957by National Screen Service Corp., which licenced advertising materials to distributors who provided them to local theaters."Apache Warrior" is subtitled "The true story of the Apache Kid," played here by Keith Larsen (1924-2006). The real Apache Kid, Haskay-bay-nay-ntayl, was a White Mountain Apache scout for the U.S. Cavalry who participated in the 1886 capture of Geronimo. The following year, a series of altercations involving the Kid and other scouts in his chargeresulted in their court-martial and imprisonment in Alcatraz. The convictions were overturned in 1888, but their Apache enemies, who obviously were many, successfully campaignedfor their re-arrest. En route to the territorial prison in Yuma, the Kid and eight others overpowered the guards and escaped into the desert.A massive manhunt led to the recapture of all of them except the Kid. He rode into legend, never to be seen again. The Apache Kid Wildnerness in New Mexico is named for him.The movie version also featuresJim Davis,John Miljan,Damian O'Flynn,George Keymas,Lane Bradford,Dehl Berti,Eugenia Paul,Nick Thompson,Eddie Little Sky,Michael Carr,Ray Kellogg,Karl "Killer" Davis,David Carlile andAllan Nixon.Stunt players areVance Howard,Walter Kray,Cliff Lyons,Mark Sheeler andBoyd Stockman.About Rodolfo Acosta.Mexican-American screen actor Rodolfo "Rudy" Acosta (1920-1974) was inducted posthumously into the Newhall Walk of Western Stars in 2013. He is the father of Santa Clarita Assemblyman Dante Acosta (who also has his SAG card).According to his Texas birth certificate, Rodolfo entered the world as a U.S. citizen on July 29, 1920. He was born in the family home at 609 E. 3rd Avenue in El Paso's El Segundo Barrio, the city's second-oldest neighborhood and an arrival point since the 1880s for Mexican immigrants crossing the Rio Grande through Ciudad Juarez. Both parents hailed from Mexico: José Acosta (aka Joseph R.), a machinist, and his wife, Alexandria Perez (aka Alejandrina).According to anthology authors Luis Reyes and Peter Rubie,[1] "When [Rodolfo] was three years old, his family moved to California, where he attended Los Angeles City College and UCLA." The 1940 U.S. Census shows Rodolfo, the eldest of four children, as a college student living at home with his parents and siblings at 3736 Mercury Avenue in the Montecito Heights section of Los Angeles.There is much erroneous information on and off the Internet about Rodolfo's early years. Some sources incorrectly state he was born in Chihuahua, Mexico; others incorrectly state he was born in the Chamizac section of El Paso, which is actually one barrio to the east. Some falsely claim he attended a

By Matt Wood in News on Nov 15, 2005 4:48PMSo a man makes a fortune in real estate, starts his own hip-hop record label, and wants to enjoy his riches by building a castle, literally. What's wrong with that? Rudy Acosta's would-be neighbors have a big problem with his plans to build a 6,700 square foot, castle-like mansion on a vacant lot in Independence Park near Lawndale and Parkview Terrace overlooking the Kennedy Expressway. The home would feature 42-foot high turrets, including one overlooking the highway emblazoned with the coat of arms for Acosta's label, The Legion Records (danger, spinning graphics!)Neighbors are pissed because Acosta's castle would dwarf their homes, sitting five feet closer to the street with towers up to 16 feet taller than other homes on the block. They also claim he used political clout to score a zoning change for the lot that would allow him to build his manor. One of Acosta's lawyers, State Rep. John Fritchey, filed an affidavit attesting that he notified residents of the zoning change. The residents say they never heard about it, and expressed concerns over family ties in the deal. Acosta's other attorney is James Banks, nephew of Alderman William Banks, chairman of the City Council Zoning Committee that approved the zoning change. James Banks is also Fritchey's brother-in-law. We thinkest thou hast some explaining to do mi' Lord.Everyone involved denies any wrongdoing of course, and the city's Inspector General declined comment about an investigation into the matter. Fritchey couldn't produce any records of having notified residents of the zoning change, but thinks that the neighbors have a problem with Acosta and his hip-hop ties personally. The Legion Records is relatively new, but they signed local underground natives Do or Die earlier this year. Chicagoist thinks that the neighbors' complaints
