people, people...spelling matters.
it's Romic (not ROMEC) and Ray G. (I won't even try with his Polish surname) was originally from Chicago where he raced but also worked for Schwinn, then for AMF, before migrating to Houston and his own frame-bulding business

ROMAN (Ray) J GASIOROWSKI

Born: 09/28/1928 - Passed: 11/16/1996

Ray learned much about bicycle building at the Schwinn factory in Chicago and was close to Rudy Schwinn, one of the old school European engineers that helped make Schwinn the quality name it was. Ray worked as a bicycle design and products engineer. Schwinn actually help fund his industrial engineering studies at IIT Institute. He was involved with Paramount frame building

Ray was a first line racer in Chicago. Ray rode in the Vuelta de Mexico, and was a finalist in Olympic trials back in the '50's. He also raced the "Tour of Somerville" (New Jersey) and did well in it. His army service took him to Europe where he was sponsored by the Army to participate in the Olympic road trials.
