HOYT.  Phelps B. Hoyt was one of the first Officers, as Secretary, forming The Western Golf Association in 1899.  Hoyt also won the 1901 Western Amateur Championship at Midlothian. Hoyt played in the 1902 U.S. Amateur and won 3 matches at his Glenview Club home course. Hoyt became President of the Western Golf Association in 1906.  He was a member of both Onwentsia Club and Glenview Club.  At Glenview he was a Director and was on the Membership Committee and was Chair of both the Handicap and Sports and Pastime Committees as well as being Glenview Clubs Team Captain.  His father, W. M. Hoyt, owned one of the countries foremost wholesale food distributors and built the W M Hoyt building on Michigan Ave in Chicago, the previous site of Fort Dearborn.   Google W M Hoyt building in Chicago, as it is no longer there to look at.  H.
