MEMO fro1n our Club Preside11t

THE new year was off to an exciting start with a fabulous celebration at the country club on New Year's Eve, fol­

lowed by a few short hours of sleep and then on to the Club's 84th Annual Hike and Dip. Again this year, over four hun­dred Olympians, sons and guests, participated in the tradi­tional hike along the Great Highway and the all-awakening dip in the always chilly Pacific surf. As usual, internal forti­tude prevailed-I think because of the anticipated fizzes and hot breakfast awaiting our brave troops at the country club. In any event, it was a splendid way to start the new year, even though by noon I was not only ready for the Rose Bowl but some sleep as well.

The highlight of the Hike and Dip breakfast for me was the opportunity to introduce your new President for 1977, Dave Dawson, and his fellow officers ... Joe Zablocki, Vice President; Dave Dooley, Secretary, and Bud Scollin, Trea-­surer. If New Year's Day was an indicator of the year to come, it looks as though enthusiasm and success will prevail

for them. In another way, New Year's Day was a sad one as it marked the end of my term as President and an end of my three-year career on the Board of Directors. This past year was a thrilling experience for me and there is no doubt that my fellow officers feel the same way. I congratulate them for a fine job and especially for their support. To Kenny Koch, Vice President; George Detweiler, Secretary, and Paul Hazelrig, Treasurer, I say thank you, and may your New Year be a happy one.

1977 will bring many challenges to the new Board, all of which I am sure will be handled with ease. One thing is for certain ... the future and success of the Club is really in the hands of you, the membership. Your participation and sup­port is most vital.

In closing, I would like to say that serving you was one of the finest things that ever happened to me. The memories will be cherished forever.

LUCETI-HEALY WIN BEST BALL TOURNEY WITH LOW GROSS 134 Jlfarenda-W are take low net honors in playoff with Hall-1\ticKeel

by Bill Sherman

JACK LUCETI teamed with Ray Healy to win The Olympic Club's Second

Annual Best Ball Championship with a nine under par 134. Last year's cham­pions, Bob Callan and Dan James, were four shots back at 138. Pete Stocker and Mike Butler tied with Marshall Gleason and Skip Thompson at 140 for third place.

Two teams tied for low net with tor­rid 121 s. They were Ron Marenda-Bil I Ware and J. Robert Hall-Bruce Mc­Kee!. Two shots back at 123 were Paul Horwath, Sr. and Mel McCracken. Four teams tied at 126 (last year's win­ning score) and four more at 129.

The Most Improved Score Awards were given to the teams that had the best comeback from the real down first day. Joe Emerson and Les Healy joined Courtney Kurtz and Mike Ferro for honors on the Lake Course, while Frank Cadman and Pete German shared Ocean Course honors with Steve Bajza and Pat Murphy.

The Seniors' Dinner Dance at the end of November signalled the end of another banner year. Special tribute was given to the three departing mem­bers of the Board of Governors-Char­ley Reardon, Gene Smith and Fred Wynne. Each of these gave generously to many Senior events over the past three years. New members elected to the Board are Bruce Fratis, Easy Ed Hoover and Bill Tradewell. The Seniors will elect a slate of officers for 1977 from the Board at their next meeting.

The 1976 golf calendar presented its share of exciting events and outstanding individual performances. The first note•• worthy event of the season was a life­time ace scored by OLYMPIAN Director John Laurie. In his usual modest man­ner, Laurie explained:

"It was just a great golf shot. Period."

Next came a series of single 'great shots,' all fired by burley Mike Butier as he belted a seven under-par 65 on the Ocean course. This was the best mem­ber effort of the year!

Dick Canady one-putted nine greens on the Lake Course in the St. Patrick's Invitational to fire a career four under­par 67. You may recall Dick used a brand new putter given to him by his wife for the occasion, with nary a prac­tice stroke. In the same event, John Hurd won honors on the Ocean with his all-time best score, a one under par 71.

Tom Culligan (TJC-III) won the O.C. Club Championship with a thrill­ing 2 up victory over Warren Richter. Tom's last O.C. Championship was 1967.

The Board of Directors The Olympic Club San Francisco, California

We have examined the balance sheet of THE OLYMPIC CLUB as of September 30, 1976 and 1975 and the related statements of income and members' equity and changes in financial position for the years then ended. Our examinations were made in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, and accordingly included such tests of the accounting records and sud1 other auditing procedures as we considered necessary in

In our opinion, the aforementioned financial statements pre­sent fairly the financial position of The Olympic Club at Sep­tember 30, 1976 and 1975, and the results of its operations and changes in financial position for the years then ended, in con­formity with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis.

Notes to the Financial Statements

NOTE I -SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

a) BASIS OF RECORDING INCOME AND EXPENSE. The Club records its revenues, costs and expenses by the accrual method of accounting. Membership clues are billed in advance and recog­nized as income in the applicable membership period. C'ost5 and expenses relating to products sold and services rendered are charged against income at the time the related revenue is earned.

b) INVENTORY VALUATION. Merchandise inventories held for sale are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market.

c) INVESTMENTS. Investments are shown at cost. Bond dis­count is amortized. Gains or losses from disposition are recorded at the time of sale or other disposition.

cl) BUILDINGS, IMPROVEMENTS, FURNITURE AND EQUIPMENT. Depreciable assets are carried at cost less accumulated clepr;:cia­tion. Depreciation on buildings and related building improve­ments is based on the estimated remaining useful lives of the respective buildings. Depreciation on the other assets is com­puted by the straight-line method based on useful lives.

e) LINEN, TABLEWARE AND OTHER. Linen, silverware, china and glassware are inventoried and valued at a percentage of most recent cost depending on usage and other factors.

f) PENSION COSTS. The Club provides retirement benefits under a non-qualified pension plan for non-union employees by funding pension costs accrued. Prior service costs are amortized over a forty year period. See Note 4 regarding a proposed qualified plan which has been submitted for approval to the Internal Revenue Service. Contributions made to various union pension funds are made according to applicable union contracts.

NOTE 2-PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT:

The principal categ·ories of property and equipment at Sep­tember 30, 1976 and 1975, were as follows:

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

NOTE 4-PENSION PLAN:

. The total expense charged to operations to provide for pen­s10ns for employees not covered by union agreements amounted to $71,130 for 19'.6 and $67,68~ for 1975. These amounts repre­sent normal pens10n costs and mterest on unfunded past service cost.

Employees who retired prior to January 1, 1975, are covered by a non-qualified pension plan. These retirees will continue to re~eive pension payments out of current earnings. The actu­anally computed value o~ vested benefits of these pensioners at October 1, 1975 is $323,452. Such date being the most recent computation date.

A plan meeting the requirements of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 to cover current employees has been submitted to the Internal Revenue Service for approval. The ac­tuarially computed value of assigned vested benefits for current empl.oyees of $181,549 exceeds the pension fund by $43,509. The pens10n fund of $138,040 shown in the balance sheet as "re­stricted cash-pension fund" will be transferred to the plan's trustee when the plan becomes qualified.

Other pension expense consisting of contributions to union plans amounted to $51,367 and $47,611 for the years ended Sep­tember 30, 1976 and 1975, respectively.

NOTE 5-INCOME TAXES:

The Club is subject to federal and state income taxes on its investment income and income from non-members. The com­ponents of this provision for taxes on income are as follows:

September 30,

1976 Current:

Federal ..................... $53,000 State . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 12,381

$65,381 Deferred . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 4,152

$69,533

1975

$50,319 12,000

$62,319 (2,319)

$60,000

Deferred taxe~ are provided for significant timing differ­ences between financial and tax reporting.

18

Based on its audit of 1971 and 1972 federal tax returns, the Internal Revenue Service has proposed to revoke the Club's exempt status. The Service is contending that the Club is not operated exclusively for non-profit purposes since the Club's garage operation constitutes a commercial competitive business. The dispute is currently under review by the National Office of Internal Revenue Service.

Management is of the opinion that any adjustments which may ultimately be determined will not materially affect the Club's financial position. NOTE 6-COMMITMENTS:

Non-cancellable lease commitments at September 30, 1976, provide for the following amounts to be paid over the periods shown: Years ending September 30 :

1977 .................... $ Land

The Country Club land lease includes provisions for adjust­ing the lease payment through negotiations starting in the year 1979.

The estimated cost to complete construction in progress at September 30, 1976, is $500,000. NOTE 7-CASH ON DEPOSIT WITH BOND TRUSTEE:

At the time of the July 1, 1971 redemption of the Club's mortgage and trust fund bonds, the Club deposited sufficient funds with the trustee to cover matured but unredeemed bonds and interest coupons. At September 30, 1976 and 1975, the bond trustee was holding· cash for this purpose in the amount of $54,238 and $61,479, respectively.

THE annual Olympic Club Invita­tional Handball Tournament, run

last year in November, was a resound­ing success, with 124 premier players entered. Competition was predictably intense over a three-day stretch.

and floor manager Bob Hassing. They certainly deserve the kudos of all Olym­pians.

Jim Thompson of the Fresno Y won the Open Singles title when he beat Golden Gate Park's Bruce Meneken, 21-9, 21-19. Meneken had reached the finals with a semi-final 21-16, 21-8 win over Pete Colichidas.

The Open Doubles crown was cap­tured by Mike Kelly and Mike Treacy, representing Golden Gate Park, in a stirring win over Jeff and Jay Capell, the Club's own newly-crowned doubles champions, 13-21, 21-10, 21-7.

Semi-finals in this category produced some superbly-played matches: Kelly and Treacy over Bob Brady and Henry Chaparro, 19-21, 21-18, 21-14; the Capells over Mike Dunne and Rich McGuire, 21-18, 21-19.

BIRTHSTONE LISTS

By now, everyone is familiar with the regular Birthstone list of gems. According to the American Gem So­ciety, this list was finally approved by the jewelry industry in 1952. Ma­jor changes from previous lists con­sisted of adding Alexandrite as a choice for June, and replacing Lapis Lazuli with Zircon for December. For your convenience, here it is again:

January-Gamet; February­Amethyst; March-Aquamarine or Bloodstone; April-Diamond; May

Emerald; June Pearl, Alexan-drite or Moonstone; July-Ruby; August-Peridot or Sardonyx; Sep­tember-Sapphire; October-Opal or Pink Tourmaline; November­Topaz or Citrine; December-Tur­quoise or Zircon.

In addition to this list, there are also birthstones for the Week Days. They are: Sunday-Topaz; Monday -Pearl or Rock Crystal; Tuesday-·­Ruby or Emerald; Wednesday -Amethyst or Lodestone; Thursday­Sapphire or Carnelian; Friday -Emerald or Cat's Eye; Saturday­Turquoise or Diamond.

Besides giving you this bit of gem lore, it also pleases me to tell you of my Re-appointment as a member of the American Gem Society. This hon~r is awarded to comparatively few Jewelers in America. It is given on the basis of gemological profi­ciency and strict business ethics. Furthermore, it must be re-won each year. Needless to say, we are most pleased to be able to display the em­blem of the AGS in 1977.

In retrospect, 1976 was filled with a

variety of special events, the results of which have just been tabulated.

The Putter - of the - Month playoff was held on the secluded lower-level putting green where all previous month­ly winners assembled to determine the Putter of the Year.

At the conclusion of the elimination contest, Elaine Edwards and Ruth Brush were tied with 16 putts each. A sudden - death playoff followed with Elaine taking top honors. The two finalists were awarded putters as their prize.

Marie and Judge Ray Arata attended the National Conference of Metropoli­tan Courts in Philadelphia. They were guests at the elegant and gracious Ho­tel Bellevue-Stratford, which unfor­tunately had to close its doors due to the adverse publicity associated with the mysterious "legionnaires" disease. In addition to enjoying the accommo­dations of this stately 72-year-old ho­tel, they took many tours in this historic city, including the 6,000-acre Fairmont Park, which was aglow in autumn foli­age.

Virginia and John Egan celebrated our Bicentennial by taking a nostalgic trip to their hometowns in Chicago. Then they visited with their daughter, Mary, and her husband Capt. Henry J. Hogan in Maynard, Mass. The familv all traveled together, enjoying the au­tumn display in Vermont, sightseeing in the Boston area and then driving up to Maine.

On the other side of the world, Tyke and Ken Glaser were graciously enter­tained by business associates and other friends in Hong Kong, Tokyo and the very ultra-modern city of Nagoya. Then on to Macou, which is near the land border of Red China. They played golf in Taipei, where in addition to green fees, an additional $50.00 per person is required for outside guests.

Velma Zappettini and a dear, life­long friend spent sixteen days traveling to Hawaii, Tahiti, Fiji, Australia and New Zealand.

Marge and George Goodwin cele­brated their 3 l st wedding anniversary by spending a week at Mauna Kea.

In 1977 we will see another year of our members traveling all over the globe, and it will also be another fun­filled year of golf. Keep in mind this following golf lesson:

Eye on the ball, elbow in tight, Don't move the head to left or right.

Arch your back, flex your knees, Let the shoulders turn with ease.

Shift the hips, transfer the weight, Keep the left arm nice and straight.

Throw that clubhead through the ball.

Hit it square, and you've got it all.

How long should it take To master this stuff?

Don't raise your hopes, A lifetime's not enough!

Squash Players Sharpen Games

by Alan Fox

PREPARATION for The Olympic Club Invitational Squash Championships

took the form during the late fall of frenzied and active, if not completely successful, participation in numerous tournaments, league matches, and lad­der challenges by Olympic Club com­petitors.

Tom Dashiell, the Club's number one player and traveling emissary, played tournaments in one five-week stretch in Portland, Vancouver, Trenton, New Jersey, and Vancouver again, reaching the finals of the Oregon State Singles Championships in his most successful effort. As the top-ranked player in Cali­fornia and third ranked on the Pacific Coast, Dashiell, in representing The Olympic Club in numerous regional and national tournaments, is mounting a serious effort to improve on his num­ber 20 national ranking.

Closer to home, Olympians were less successful in the only major local tour­nament in November, the Ralfe D. Mil­ler Invitational at Berkeley. Only Mike Roizen in "A" and Spencer Johnston in "B" gained the semi-final round. Roizen, Johnston, Dashiell, Jim Feutz, Bob Mueller and Alan Fox signalled the coming dominance of The Olympic Club "A" team in Bay Area league competition, however, by easily beating Alex Eichmann's Peninsula Squash Club and the University of California for the fall "A" league title.

The Olympic Club "B" team cap­tained by Jim Feutz and the "C" team co-captained by Charlie Drocco and John Mackay similarly are raising seri­ous threats to win their respectiw leagues.

The Club's "D's," recently the least successful of our teams, interestingly is by far the most active numerically of the squash classes, with impressive par­ticipation in both organized league competition, intra-club matches and in­dividual ladder competition. Maurice Milam, Jon Gilbert, Hal Bell, Dick Haines, Jim Kempenich, Bill Schmohl, Paul Ronan, and Scott Patton, to name

The competition consisted of round­robin "21 point" matches between each of six teams assigned to each of the four courts at Lakeside. At the end of the first day's play, the two teams with the most points qualified for the more tra­ditional "knock-out" competition the next day.

Unfortunately, the rain that began falling late Saturday afternoon came down in earnest on Sunday with the re­sult that the eight teams that made it through to Sunday's play decided the outcome of their playoff matches by the flip of a racket.

The eight teams involved in the play­offs were John Briskey and Jim Waters. Kent Dorwin and Peter Dorinson, Bob Woerner.and Ward Wolff. Chris Arnn­dell and Curtis Imrie, Don Bering and Whitey Welch, George Harmina and Len Slater, Herb Suhr and Dick Har­row, and Norm Roth and Nick Zoller.

The team of Roth and Zoller won in the racket "spin-off" Sunday and re­ceived the merchandise certificates from the American Poultry Company for a "big bird."

A highly successful evening was en­joyed by nearly 100 people at the An­nual Tennis Banquet at Lakeside in November.

John Trauth, the Club's Tennis Com­missioner, introduced special guests Mr. and Mrs. Tom Marquoit, General Manager of The Olympic Club, and Mr. and Mrs. Hunter DeLatour, Secre­tary of the US Tennis Association. T rnuth reviewed the current tennis pro­gram and proposed future plans, all pointing toward a busy and exciting year ahead at Lakeside.

Recent Club class tournament win­ners were announced by Ken Robinson,

tennis professional, before turning the microphone over to Don Bering, who had a number of interesting remarks to make about member players while pre­senting them with awards.

It was a fitting season finale to a suc­cessful tennis year made possible by the efforts of John Trauth, Chris Arundel] ( Deputy Commissioner), Mario Ciampi, Ken Robinson and Mike Dan together with committee chairmen Chuck Vanoncini, Don Bering, Clark Gilson, Bill Alexander and a host of committee members.

Six Club Teams Enter 'Flame' Soccer League

COMMISSIONER Tom Klitgaard and Soccer Coach Al Washauer have

entered six Olympic Club teams in the San Francisco "Flame" soccer league which gets under way this month. More than 90 junior and juvenile booters have been practicing weekly since early November and are eager and hopeful of playoff representation in each age divi­sion.

Since the youthful soccer program started some 12 years ago under the direction of Coach Washauer, the inter­est and participation has grown tremen­dously. Initially the program started with one team and approximately 12 boys participating. Currently the Club will be represented by six teams with over 90 young tigers enjoying the ac­tion.

The Club has single teams entered in the 18- 16- 14- and 10-years-of-age groups and two teams, the "Reds" and the "Greys,'' in the 12-years-of-age category. The squads have also entered the statewide state soccer cup competi­tion in March.

Olympian Rides Again In Rocky Burro Race

Curtis Imrie participated in the an­nual World's Championship Pack Burro Race, which he describes as "a crazy event" in the Colorado Rockies. The race is run over 28 miles of rocky trails, roads, snow fields and a moun­tain pass at elevations ranging between 10,000 and 14,000 feet.

Imrie has taken part in the race for the past several years, and he has tried to encourage other Olympic Club mem­bers to participate, but so far without too much success.

The annual Club Doubles Tourna­ment was also conducted last Novem­ber. Champions in Championship Class were Jay and Jeff Capell, 21-11, 21-12 over Henry Chaparro and Bob Brady. The semi-final meeting between these same teams had been much more of a tussle but still saw the same winners, 19-21, 21-9, 21-19.

In A Class Art Zanello and Bil! Wesch took the title with an unblem­ished record when they defeated Dave Marcelli and Jack Schroth, 21-9, 21-13.

Swimmers Pile Up High Scores

by Ron Bull

AT t~e De Anza swim meet in Cuper­£1. tmo, four Olympic Club swim­:ners once again proved that with qual­ity one gets better results than with quantity. At this meet the Olympian swimmers piled up 12 firsts, four sec­onds, one third, and three fourths for 157 team points, enough for the third place team standing out of 12 teams, despite being the smallest team in the meet.

The Olympians were cheered by the return to competition of one of their top all-time swimmers, Don Hill. Hill easily won his specialty, the 50- and 100-yard freestyle. Don surprised everyone by also swimming the SO-yard butterfly and taking first place. ·

The De Anza swim meet was Don's first competition since May of I 974, when he won two individual national championships, the 50- and I 00-yard freestyle in new national record times at the short course AAU Masters Na­tional Championships.

Bill Loughborough ( 65-69 age group) led Olympians with six firsts and a second for 61 team points, easily establishing himself as the top swim­mer in his age group. Bill's wins were in the 50-, 100- and 200-yard breast­stroke, the 100-yard individual medley, and the 50-yard butterfly.

Tom McCarty ( 30-35 age group) was close behind Loughborough with 57 team points. Tom won the 100- and 400-yard individual medley, and the 100-yard backstroke, took second in the 100-yard Individual Medley and the 200-yard backstroke, took third in the 100-yard butterfly and fourth in the 50-yard butterfly and the SO-yard back­stroke.

Charles Raven (35-39 age category), was able to participate in only the first day of the meet. In the 50-yard freestyle event, Charles almost defeated Ed Henshaw, the top speedster in his age group in this event. Later in the day Charles finished fourth in the tight and hotly contested 200-vard freestyle race.

! Rifle T earn 3rd At Mare Island

THE Olympic Club High Power Rifle Team was welcomed to Mare Island

Rifle Range by beautiful sunny skies to participate in The San Francisco Bi­centennial Regional High Power Rifle Championships.

Facing an outstanding collection of Military and Reserve Teams from as far away as Tennessee and New York, in­cluding The All-National Guard and All-Army Reserve Teams, The Olym­pic Club High Power Team shot its way to a third place in the Civilian Class competition.

Olympians Craig Stutler, Chris Pe­tersen, Mike Dunia and Larry Wilkins, firing Ml Rifles at ranges of 200 to 600 yards, scored a neat 1736 points. The course of fire was a combination of Slow Fire Standing through Rapid Fire at 200 and 300 yards, finishing with Slow Fire at 600 yards.

Considering the demanding course of fire over great distances with a difficult rifle, cheers are in order for a fine effort by The Olympic Club team.

SQUASH co11ti1111ed

a few, lead the D's into the winter tour­nament competition with great hope for success.

For the first time ever, significantly, an Olympic Club junior squash pro­gram is being conducted under the guid­ance of the squash ladder. The juniors, presently numbering about six, have been active in tournament play and hold regular team training sessions.

Certainly not to be slighted the Vets have been active and successful in league play, although after two North­ern California tournaments only Steve Yost, among active Olympians, has ac­tually won a tournament, the Veterans B at Fresno. Geoff Thomas, Berm Zwart, Jack Bickel, Charlie Drocco, and Yost anchor the successful B Vet team, while Ed Marr and Murray Smith await the big winter tournaments to claim their share of the hardware.

had the best score in the Seniors' Tune­up with a net 63, while a pair of veteran Seniors, Walt Gordon and Ed Sheppie, scored the big blast in the Seniors' Earthquake with a rattling plus 12.

Summertime, and the living was easy, especially for Olympian Steve Bajza, John Clare, John Flanagan and Pat Murphy. These fellows captured third place in the Bay Area Zone Champion­ship, thereby earning a fall trip to Spy­glass Hill.

In the Men's Four-Ball Champion­ship, two teams tied for top honors. These were John Sweazy, Peter For­tune, Doug Stroh and Cid Eldred, along with Phil Clare, Tom O'Kane, Paul Horwath, Jr. and Fred Arnke.

The Seniors' Circus also had eight winners as two teams tied with net SS's. Albert Santucci, Fritz Renneckar, Jim Scatena and Mike Bouskos shared top spot with Frank Cadman, Charlie Molinari, Mickey Davies and Frank Doyle.

It was another big year for the O.C. Juniors, who under Coach Joe Vavra, won their second consecutive Bay Area Cities League Championship, defeating Palo Alto Hills C.C. with an aggregate score of 42-33 in the Home-and-Home series. Eric Sonnenberg won the O.C. Junior Championship by a fantastic 13-shot margin. Steve and Lido Landi won the Father and Son Championship, and Len Fregosi teamed with guest Chris Mulligan to win the Junior Invitational.

The O.C. Men's Invitational was captured by Dan Ferguson and guest Dick Reid in low net, while last year's low net winners, Tom O'Kane and Paul Batmale, won low gross with a spark­ling 140.

The Club's first Scramble Tourna­ment was won by the unlikely trio of Mike Butler, Al Huber and Barney De Rose, the 1 7 handicapper.

The Seniors' Best-Ball Champion­ship was won by a pair of real curmud­geons, Fritz Renneckar and Jack Wat­son, while the Seniors' Invitational was won by the classy shot making of Paul Wellnitz, Sr. and guest Jim Bozek.

To echo Mr. Laurie's observation at the start of the season:

"It was just a great year. Period."
