Wrote extensively about golf for magazines.  Started a reading group in 1970-71 devoted to reading the major novelists,  those we would not read on our own:  Proust,  Tolstoy,  Dickens,  Austin,  Eliot,  Faulkner,  Mann,  Camus,  Hardy,  Balzac,  Dostoevsky,  Kafka,  etc.,  etc.  After retirement began long,  disorganized novel about golf and old age.  Then cut part of it out to make a shortish novel.
