The Courier Sept.15th 1981


 Merchants BEAT the Cuties.....WHAT??!?!?!?



Possible Trino sighting.




This picture is a 1938 mens baseball team. The player, bottom row second from the right is in question.
Did Trino have a brother or is this him?
Again, a HUGE thank you to Roy Ancira for sharing this from his private collection.

Trino Palacios coaching in 1939!!!


Roy Ancira holds the honor of the first person to have his mom's personal photo posted on this blog!


And what a contribution!! A picture of his mom's all girl's baseball team with Trino himself coaching from 1939!!!!


Mr. Ancira shares his story:
"This was taken in 1939. I brought up your web site and recognized the name Trino. I enjoyed your site and it brought back many memories. My dad use to take me to see the Calif. Cuties, back then Cressey park now Gonzales park. My mother and father are still healthy living in South Gate, Ca. My mother is the pretty lady to Trinos right."


A very special thank you to him for sharing this golden moment from the past!
