Church Pews at Oakmont

Does anyone know the exact year the Church Pews were built at Oakmont?   Was it part of the original design by Fownes  or were they added later?

Rick, I'll contact the folks I know with Oakmont history books to see if they have an answer.
Big drivers and hot balls are the product of golf course design that rewards the hit one far then hit one high strategy.  Shinny showed everyone how to take care of this whole technology dilemma. - Pat Brockwell, 6/24/04

Thanks George.  I was curious to see when they were built.
