This is the 50th anniversary
year of Shannon g. Luchs, the
realty firm, and while it's not a
recent development, somebody
pointed out there was a coin
cidence concerning the present
heads of the firm, William e.
Shannon, II, president, and
Frank Luchs, executive vice
president.
Shannon is president of CO.
lumbia Country Club, as was
his late father. Herbert T. Luchs
is president of Woodmont Coun-
try Club, position his late
father, Morton j. Luchs, held
from 1918-24, including the year
Woodmont moved from Petworth
to its former location in Be-
thesda.
Billy Shannon is serving his
second year at Columbia. And
in addition, his wife is about
two years away from becoming
president of the Women's Dis
trict Golf Association. Frank
Luchs became president of Wood
mont after the death of Ben
Ourisman. but following a long
established custom he probably
will be elected in the fall.
