It features an interview and historical look of founder Paul Lucchesi Sr. by columnist Chip Ainsworth. The original full-sized newspaper framed article is on display for viewing at Eastern Billiards. The Life and Times of Paul Lucchesi, Sports Article February 8, 1984 • Transcribed by www.EasternBilliards.com The Life and Times of Paul Lucchesi Sports Article by Chip Ainsworth Valley Advocate, February 8, 1984 Paul Lucchesi sits in the office corner of his pool hall. "One day," says Lucchesi, "the pool Holyoke pool hall and reaches for another hall burned down. I went over and came back Kent. He is diabetic, and at age 70 the nerve with a bucket of balls." endings in his fingers have become frayed. The outside air leaves a chilly residue, so he wears a floppy sweater and keeps a wool hat pulled over his brow. As he sucks in a pull of smoke and stares into space through wire-rimmed glasses, he says in a deep, raspy voice, "Geometric triangulation of the diamond system is very important in pool." With that, Paul Lucchesi quickly dispels any impression that he is simply a two-bit hustler who happens to own his own pool room. Indeed, not only does he own the Ivory Billiards on Chestnut St., he also owns a slate mine in Italy, and a warehouse in Boston.
