| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the rivalry between brothers Rees and Bobby Jones, sons of architect Robert Trent Jones Sr. Describes the disagreement, stating that "the lawsuit...alleges that Bobby owes Rees $98,869 to fulfill a liability remaining from the estate of their mother...and that Bobby also owes Rees one-half of all royalties from an agreement Bobby made licensing the name Robert Trent Jones to Gear For Sports for a clothing line." Also states that "in a countersuit Bobby seeks to have the court enjoin Rees from using the nickname 'Open Doctor,' which Bobby maintains rightly belonged to their father." Profiles Robert Trent Jones Sr., describing how he entered the golf course architecture industry and how he and his wife Ione tried to end the feud between their sons. States that "on Rees' 60th birthday, Bobby boxed an olive branch, enclosed one of his poems written for the occasion and sent it to his brother. It came back unopened." |
