Lester Wolf of Sandy claims his
brothers are better golfers than
himself, but it was Lester who got
a hole-m one recently at Mountain
View.
"They about fainted," Wolf said
"They've none of them ever had
one ”
The ball bounced on the green a
couple of times and rolled into the
cup on hole 10 on M ay 21. He made
the 155-yard shot with a seven iron.
W olf was playing with his
brothers, Ed, George and Clark.
They try to get together twice a
week, Lester said, which is dif
ficult as he works nights and Clark

George are retired All live in the
Sandy area
Good fortune seems to run in
cycles, and it is no different with
Wolf. He got back last week from
visiting a friend in Maryland.
“ I had a ball," he reports Wolf
was awaken one morning by the
sound of a hand-held electric saw.
It seems his frie n d fro m
Maryland, with whom he was sta
tioned in Korea, wanted Wolf to
feel right at home.
Although “ not much of a
sightseer," Wolf enjoyed visits to
the White House, the Pentagon,
Arlington Cemetery and Mt Ver

Wolf works at Crown-Zellerbach
in Estacada where he operates a
pony edger
His friend calls occasionally,
usually waking him on Saturday

in. He'll tell me that it ’s 11 o’clock
in the morning and that 1 should be
awake, Wolf said.
Wolf has played golf for 23 years,
beginning when he was 30. He
worked at Koch’s M ill in Sandy at
the time, and when business slow
ed in the winter he’d take off with
friends to Glendoveer Golf Course.
He regrets not having started as
a youngster. “ I used to think this
was the craziest game in the
world,” he said
He was probably right, but
regardless, he held up his seven
iron and vowed to "keep this ol*
club swinging.'*
