SPORTS THE EVENING * Armour Out of Golf Tourney TOMY IS VICTIN OF POOR PUTTING Beaten by Barnes as Other Favorites Advance in Title Event. BY WALTER R. McCALLUM. ALTIMORE, Md., Shorn of two of the ranking fa- vorites, the Professional Golfers’ Association championship moved into the second round today with the Sarazen-Barnes match the out- standing tilt of thé day. The matches today lacked the spec- tacular aspect of y jousts and the stage seemed set for another of those interesting battles between Hagen and Sarazen in the semi-final of the tournament. The stocky little Italian- American from New York matched shots with Jim Barnes today, but was a fa- vorite to trim the dank Cornishman, Wwho has twice won this title. Although Barnes beat Tommy Armour of Con ional yesterday by a 3 and | he is by no means a favorite-to beat | Sarazen, for Barnes, to tell the truth. did not win. The fact of the matter is that Tommy beat himself. And we do not mean to disparage Tommy's game, cither, that had Tommy putted as well as he | j can putt the verdict would have been in favor of the Congressional pro. Hagen Picked to Win. Walter Hagen, in quest of his fifth consecutive professional match-play championship, should win without trou- ble today, for he played against Julian Blanton of Ohio, who lacks the experi- ence of the champion. But the Sara- zen-Barnes combat took the major part of the picture as the pros started today. for this was the only match of the day in which two recognized stars met. Barnes_won the title in 1916 and 1920, while Sarazen was victorious in 1922 and 1923, vanquishing Hagen on the thirty-eighth hole of the title chase at Pelham five years ago. Since that time there has been nothing but Hagen, for the sleek-haired New York- er started his winning streak back in 1924 at French Lickand hasn't lost a match since that time. Tommy Armour is out because he worried himself out oi a half dozen putts over the first rouud. He out- played Jim Barnes through most of the 34 holes they played yesterday, but Barnes was the steadier of the two on the putting green. Puiting like a tyro at the game, Tom- my, time after time, lost holes he should have won, or at best got only a half. He had no fewer than six 3-putt greens over the morning round of the 36-hole match with Barnes, to turn 3 down to Long Jim at the luncheon interval. In- stead of being 4 or 5 up, Tommy had missed enough putts to be 3 down. In the afternoon it was much the same, although Barnes made two truly remarkable recovery shots to halve the first two holes, both of which Tommy should have won. Great iron shots at the seventh and ninth enabled | Tommy to turn only 2 down. And he had a splendid chance to“win the tenth, but missed a 10-footer. He did win the eleventh where Barnes hooked his sec- ond shot, and the stage seemed set. for an Armour rally, when he won the, twelfth to be but 1 down. But a spectator bothered Tommy at, the short thirteenth, where he had but a 10-footer for a 2, and he missed the putt. That was the end of the rally, for Barnes won the next two holes with a par and a birdie to end the match on the sixteenth, which they halved in regulation fours. Sarazen Is Pressed. Gene Sarazen had a rough battle with Bill Mehlhorn, but finally closed out Wild Bill on the sixteenth green, by 3 and 2. Mehlhorn was in front at the half-way mark, but Sarazen steadied down in the afternoon, took advantage of Mehlhorn’s errors and won the six- teenth to end the match, 3 and 2. Leo Diegel has at last found his game. Three up on Tony Manero of | New York at the half-way mark, the jumping jack of the gam2, who used to be located in Waslungmn. shot the first nine holes in 31, four under par, to close out Manero, 10 and 8. Hagen, playing the same steady game that has characterized his golf here, was in a dog fight with Willie Ogg of Worcester, but won in the fifteenth, 4 and 3, when Ogg missed his tee shot. Al Espinosa, who won the qualifying round Monday, again uncorked the best golf of the day. He was 11 up on Johnny Golden of Patersoa, N. J., at the turn with a 69 and even though Golden shot the first nine holes in 32 in the afternoon he picked up but two holes. Espinosa, however, closed him out by 8 and 7. Glenn Spencer, who qualified from the Midatlantic sector with Armour, won his match from Fred McDermott handily by 8 and 6. FRENCH RACKETERS ADVANCE ON COAST LOS ANGELES, October 3 (#).— Henri Cochet, Pierre Landry and Chris- tian Boussus, the three members of the French Davis Cup team playing in the Pacific Southwest tennis tour- nam-at here were within striking dis- tance of new titles today. Awaiting the advance of the French was an array of Pacific coast young- sters and a youthful net star from the East, who won their matches in the fourth round of mav.ched play yes- terday. Corhet won from Joe Bixler of Los! Angeles, 8—86, 6—0, while Landry teeter- ed on the verge of defeat Jace Bates, former Univer: 2 star, in three game: 7—5. Boussus found littl dlflicu!ly m winning two singles matches, one from | Fred Harter of Los Angeles, 6—0, 6—1, id the other from G. W. Guilford of { Angeles, 6—2, 6- The most likely Americans in the path of the Frenchmen appeared to be Hx&\n)rlh Vincs, Pasadena, Calif., youta: Ralph McEllveny of Stanford University and co-holder of the national intercollegiate doubles championship; Alan Herrington, McEllveny's mate in the naticnal doubles title; Gerald Stratford of California, and John Van Rvn, former Princeton’ University star, all of whom scored easy victories ye: terday.

An invitation has been extended the women to use the club course again next week and at the luncheon, which followed play yesterday, it was voted unanimously to accept the offer. Scores were higher on the average this week due to the more difficult course. Play next Tuesday will begin at 10 o'clock.
