Abstract/Contents: | Profiles the Lakeside Golf Club, later changed to the Olympic Club Lake Course. Overviews the history of the course, noting that "the club struggled financially right from the start and as Olympic was looking at getting involved in golf they leased the course and took over the maintenance as well." Notes the cultivar makeup of the course. Also profiles Sam Whiting, the Golf Professional and Greenkeeper, working there until his retirement in 1954. Lists several other courses that Whiting was involved with in the planning stages. |
