Hay Olivio, who was also an ex
cellent boxer, are Inseparable.
Both were members of the famed
Salem Crescent Athletic Club.
Pimentel, who had dreams of
becoming a doctor, was boxing
and attending achool.
Joe Pimentel, unbeaten as an L e a g u e and the' Community
Baseball League's All-Star game
last Sunday at 128th and Third
Ave., was great baseball but the
fans were uncomfortable watch
ing the game. The only place
to sit was the baked stone bleach
era with no shed. It’s too bad
that the Department of Parks
doesn't supply a better baseball
diamond for sandlot teams which
operate in professional style, to
play on.
According to George Gainford,
the clever Pimentel, was unbeat
able. “He was so good that they
used to bar him from tourna
ments. The examining physician
would come up with a heart mur
mur or high blood pressure.
They kept him out of the Golden
Gloves but he won every ama
teur boxing championship he en
tered.”
Local golfers are still talking
about the three-day 54-hole In
ternational Golf tourney at Do

John Henderson from Arlington.
