Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: Joe Noble has been a golf professional for 45 of his 61 years, the last 25 at Thornhill Country Club. While he admits he has thought about retirement, he has recently embarked on a new five-year contract. Noble has taken great interest in keeping pace with change and recently began recording tapes of personalized instruction for members. He doesn't claim to be first to do this, but hasn't heard about any others. Members will honor him at dinner next Friday.
