Arthur Young SAMUEL E. HAYES It's just about two years ago that the Seattle public was—well, just a little bit startled, by the announcement that without saying anything to anybody one man had developed a nifty cighteen-hole golf course and laid out a most alluring country club-residential district overlooking Lake Washington and the Sand Point Aviation Field. Moreover, it was a first class course and the greens, in particular, were quite marvelous. He hadn't asked any help and had spent nobody s money but his own and here was a links all ready for play. Golfers and the public refused to believe it. Golf courses cost a lot of money and no one man would be so foolish, they said. But there it was and there it is. And if anybody will visit the Sand Point Golf and Country Club on a Saturday afternoon and will inspect the list of those who have bought homesites there, he will agree that maybe Mr. Hayes knew what he was about and some of the rest of us didn't. Mr. Hayes, like a lot of us, has a hobby. It is the city beautiful. And the Sand Point Golf and Country Club is the fruition of one of his dreams. When the present emerald fairways were but briars and brambles and forbidding forest he visioned the day when that sightly expanse of upland would become the site of a model community. So he set out to bring it about. And as i he was in the fortunate position of being able to do so without asking aid of anyone, he set ! out to make his dream come true. The result is there for the world to see. a credit to Mr. Hayes and a source of pride to the city. ! THE TOWN CRIER JUNE 15, 1929 row" of an independent in public life.
