For Colletts It's Cement It's par for the course that three of the five Collett brothers of Provo are golf professionals. A fourth is at Brigham Young University and will eventually turn pro with a fifth working as a newspaper reporter in Provo. The five are the sons of former Utahns, Mr. and Mrs. Don Collett of Pinehurst, North Carolina. Mr. Collett, born and raised in Sandy, has been a golf professional for 21 years and is currently President of the World Golf Hall of Fame in Pinehurst. Mrs. Collett, raised in Murray, is an outstanding amateur player and carries a 12 handicapp. The story of the entire Collett family's involvement with golf goes back to 1957 when Mr. Collett was named as head pro at Coronado Golf Club in California. It meant an opportunity for his sons, Randy, Rod, Craig and twins Paul and Brian, did not only grow up on a golf course, but to have the facilities to hone their games into championship quality. As the boys grew up in Coronado, they had the chance to participate in the San Diego Junior Golf program, considred to be the most outstanding in the world, and which produced such players as Billy Casper and Gene Littler. As a result of seven years of junior golf competition, there were enough trophies, cups, ribbons and medallions in the Collett household to make even a silversmith envious. Mr. Collett moved to Houston, Tex. in 1965 and acCountry cepted the head pro position at Brae-Bur- n ME, Club. The sons immediately got involved in high school competition. The second oldest, Rod, wvs the Houston area high school prep champion anj went to the state championships in 1968 where he finished fourth behind such notables as Ben Crenshaw and Tom Kite. All of the Collett sons have attended BYU, with all five playing on it's golf team at one time or another in the past seven years. Randy, the oldest of the fivesome, graduated in 1972 and immediately became a club pro in Houston, Texas. He presently lives in Provo and will soon take over the top position at the Rancho Bernardo Inn and Country Club in San Diego. One of the twins, Brian, finished up at s BYU in 1977, and is now on the in Arizona, hoping to take a leap to the bigger PGA circuit by mini-tour- next year. Mr. Collett said that raising five sons to be competitive golfers has been rewarding. "The subject of golf has always been the topic of conversation around our house and it has been that way for over 20 years," he said. "While many families read tennis, baseball or football magazines, our home is filled with periodicals, books, and photographs concerning golf," he said. "Even the sports watching on TV is primarily golf oriented," he added. Commenting upon the effect of golf on his family, Mr. Collett said, "it has brought up closer together as a family and we have been able to share with each other the many tournament wins. trend since then. In 1977 there were about 3.3 million births. The liberalization of abortion laws in recent years has accounted for part of the reduction in the number of births, especially among two groups with higher than average infant mortality unwed mothers and mothers under age 20.
