Well at least on this one my memory was accurate. Apparently Nick Clooney 
didn't care much for Columbus because he returned to Cincinnati after just 
a year. Son George was just a schoolboy then. I checked his Wiki biography 
and I am familiar with the Catholic  school he attended that one year he 
lived in Columbus.

Nick Clooney went on to host a short lived game show called The Money 
Maze. After that fell through he became a local news anchor in Los Angeles 
and that no doubt was a big help in George getting into the acting 
business.
