Bob Armstrong, Publicity We are happy to report that the Saturday morning contests continue unabated, even though record temperatures and increasing humidity (especially on the water-drenched, irrigated fairways where the rising sun releases moisture much like saunas in the far north) are testing the resolve of our intrepid golfers! The results of the most recent…
Larry Wolfe The “perfect man”? Well, Debra McCarthy thinks so and, in fact, Dennis McCarthy can legitimately stake a claim to that title. He’s the only person I’ve ever known who has pitched a perfect game in baseball and bowled four perfect games! Born in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and raised in Stoneham, northeast of Boston, Dennis…

Liz DeMichael, Publicity Although June was one of the hottest in Arizona history, the PVLGA golfers were hotter. Let me show you how they sizzled. 6/06. The ladies used their results on only the holes starting with O-N-E-S toward their final scores, even though they played a full round. Someone could have a great day,…
