For those that know Merion, do the red and orange colors remind you of anything?

I know this answer and just to throw you all off, I believe the answer involves the cries of a sphardic (sp?) bullfighter.

Toro tractor paint?


Wayne:

I think this is a wonderful idea.  You mentioned that the Archives room is open to the public under certain guidelines.  What might those guidelines be?  I am very interested in taking a look.

Thanks,
Andy

Andy,

Long time no talk to.  I can show you the Archives sometime.  The normal protocol is to get permission from the Archives Committee or GM.

PS:  You only get half credit

     Wayne,


           Very cool for me to see something which was in my golf room for so many years back home where it belongs.

And to think we used it as a candy dish.

Wayne,

That's absolutely fabulous.   Every club should be so fortunate to have key members like yourself keenly interested in finding and preserving their heritage.

Nice job!

Gene,

Your donation of the dish with the famous Hogan photo was mentioned in the club newsletter.  We like to disseminate the items given and the donors names (if they don't mind) in the newsletter.

Mike and others,

Thanks for the kind words.  It is truly enjoyable to assist in the activities of such a committee.  I hope a great many other clubs do the same.

Wayne,

What was the title and artist of the LP on the table?

Joe

Joe,

I believe the record label is for the Four Aces (featuring Al Alberts) on the Merion Record Label.  However, the content of the disk is a description of the course, hole by hole, by Fred Austin, the esteemed head professional (1946-1969) originally from the Addington, later a protoge of Ernest Jones at Cherry Valley (LI) and Women's National before he came to Merion.

[Eric Franzen]

Didn't you wear that red jacket, that's on display in the corner, when we played together? I also remember something about you insisting that we should address you as "Lord Wayne" as long as you kept the jacket it on.

Or maybe I am just confusing everything with Tom Huckaby proudly sporting his Arsenal shirt somewhere in California.

Anyway, nice job with the archive. And stroke savers definitely sounds better on vinyl!

[wsmorrison]

If I tried to put on John Capers's red coat, I'd rip it.  I'm a 44 and that coat must be a 36 or so.  I have a nice roomy blue one though.  I'll wear that next time we play, Eric.  Along with a Merion hat, Merion tie, Merion shirt, Merion belt, Merion underwear, Merion trousers, Merion socks, Merion pitch repair tool, Merion logo ball and Merion ball marker, I can achieve the state of logo Nirvana with 11 matching logo items.  If I can't play smart, I might as well dress smart. 

You may continue to call me Lord Wayne while we play, whether the jacket is on or not.  As such, I should always have the honors, nobility and all
