Kah-Nee-Ta Pro-Am Kicks O ff Golf Season
Locals were overshadowed
by visitors at the annual Kah-
Nee-Ta Pro-Am Golf Tourna
ment held at the resort March
17- 18.
The beginning of the golf
season apparently caught the
Kah-Nee-Ta Golf Association by

warm air put golfers’ mistakes
into perspective the first day
until clouds moved in. Then the
push was on to make the chilly,
windy circle around the course
worthwhile with low scores.
Amateurs Bob Wilkinson and
Cecil Seyler both placed tenth in

respectively, while Ray Shike’s
team took third in the Best Ball
competition with a 240. “The rest
of us were just in attendance,”
said Golf Association Secretary-
Treasurer Cecil Conner.
Conner also noted that the
golf club missed the participa
tion of its champ Louie Pitt, who
bowed out with back problems.

ANTS EYE VIEW — Not even a thousandth of a second could freeze the motion of a driving golf club. This
is what the action at the Kah-Nee-Ta Pro-Am Tourney looked like to ants and those hungover from the
night before.
