OHNcr Glnncll, the young 100 pounds
scrapper of the First Infantry who has
come to the front in his two recent
bouts at Schofeld Barracks is native
son, hailing from Bakersfield, aGalifoi-
mia. This youngster is only twenty
years of age, but has in the past few
years figured in number of ring en-.

He has never lost fight Among his
| principal bouts are numbered three
which were staged at Vernon, Cal, and
in the oil fields. Kid Kenneth, his first
opponent, lasted three rounds: Jimmie

Bob Robinson went out in the first;
all these succumbed to knock-outs.

the hook in the fourth, and our old
friend Kid Kenneth tried his luck

sion over George Williams. After he
entered the army, he defeated Marek
in four rounds at Angel Island got q

first round at Schofeld.
Pinnell is long and lean, and very
tough. He has Il very hard kick in

unfailing smile, and a worsted Oppo
