To all MSIS Addressees,
The
wind was really howling for the match at Marsh Landing.
The wind didn't bother some players but it sure was
tough on me. The average gross scores was
91.3, which is actually a little lower than last
month. Director of Golf, Rob Kohlhass and
Pro-shop Assistant,
Blair did a great job for us. The scorecards and
scoreboards were perfect. Thanks to Team Rep,
John Arnold and the 3 other volunteers from Marsh
Landing, Larry Holder, Dave Lehman, and George Halvorsen.
I thought the food was excellent. I
heard no complaints from any of you.

SCORECARDS
You
scorekeepers did a fine job this month.
Thanks for your help and cooperation.
There are still a few of you who are entering an 'X'
when a player picks up. Please use a zero (0) for ALL
pick up holes. There are two simple but effective rules
to follow:
1) Player completes
a hole - Enter actual gross score
2) Player picks up
- Enter a zero but
NOT an 'X' nor an adjusted score
Remember the
computers will make all adjustments and convert zeros to
the correct adjusted score but . . . . . . . the
computer cannot work with "X"s.
Much
thanks to all of
those who helped out with
the computer
scoring at San
Jose: Roy
Gulick MP,
John Pujol QH, Larry
Von Dolteren SN, John
Arnold ML, Larry Holder ML, Dave Lehman ML, and George
Halvorsen ML
Four errors were
made at the scoring table. One
of the errors was caught and fixed at the match. None
of the errors affected the winning teams payoffs.
All of the
official records have been fixed. The
standings and handicap indexes have been corrected on
the web site.
