They had basketball courts everywhere swimming pools we had every thing kids don't have now we had it there you know what girls play tetherball jump rope. We played football baseball and stuff but it was pretty much a court or you know monkey bars and stuff for all through that [unintelligible]. I remember you know every Christmas lincoln courts had a party Christmas party at a Santa Claus come around on Christmas and stuff they don't do none of that anymore it's just gone.

Mr. Crawford barber shop not barber shop bikes.

that bikes shop was there. He worked on bikes and then Kevin got the store which is only where he done passed along to but he got it and changed it to a store which is closed now. Yeah, but Crawford's bicycle shop was definitely there

did you ever hang out in there ever see or talk to him at all?

Take my bikes there you know he had inner tubes he had a couple of dogs. He was the white man to go to back then yes. And he was a real nice young guy. I mean, a nice older guy though. You know, that's across from spelling road. Right? And it was a cow factory right there, too.

Well, one thing is I want them the realize see when I was coming up was that they call it Ezzard Charles now which I'm all for that because he is great, you know, Boxer from my era, but I will it wasn't Ezzard charles when I was coming up. It was Lincoln Park Drive and a lot of people don't know that. They don't even know about the shoemaker clinic it's all gone. You know, they don't know nothing about St. Mary's Hospital. It's all gone. But it was there when I was growing up.
