BARNES NOW is 9
UP ON MACFARLANE

BY the Associated Press.
PHILADELPHIA, September 12.-
Long Jim" Barnes, British open
champion, was 9 up on Willie Mac
farlane, American open champion,
when they finished today's round in
their unofficial world championship
golf match of 72 holes. Yesterday at
the Philmont Country Club, Barnes
was up at the end of the days play
of 18 holes. Today's 1S holes were
played at the White Marsh Country
Club. The remaining SO holes will be
played at Washington, d. c., next
Thursday.
Barnes formerly was professional at
White Marsh and played more bril-
liantly over his old course than he did
at Philmont. For the 18 holes today
he was one stroke over the course
par of II.
Macfarlane was steadier with his
driving than on the first day, but his
putting slumped. On six occasions he
failed to get down puts player OF
his ability usually expects to sink.
Barnes, on the other hand, always
laid his first putt dead to the cup, to
sink an easy second putt, and some
times ran down his first. On one
hole, the fifth, Barnes sank 45-foot
putt for an eagle 8. but could do no
better than halve the hole, as Mac
farlane got down 10-footer for an
eagle. This hole was the high light
of the match.
Macfarlane won only three holes
during today's match. He took the
second with a birdie 3 and the fourth
when Barnes was bunkered from the
tee. The cards:

But Leo will not play at Columbia.
Macfarlane and Barnes have turned
thumbs down on the aspirations Of
the Canadian open champion, claim
ing that as Leo is not a holder of one
of the two big professional titles
either the American or British open
he Is not eligible to play for the
world title. On such a question the
golfing public doubtless will be
divided. Jim Barnes doesn't say any
thing about the Diegel challenge, But
Macfarlane sums 1t up in few Words,
which express admiration and re-
spect for Diegel's game, but at the
same time show desire to keep the
competition for the unofficial world
title between the champions of the
two countries most renowned in golf.
How Macfarlane Views 1t.
Leo is a great golfer He might
have won at Worcester" says Mac
farlane. He is good enough to beat
any golfer in the world when he is
right. I have the greatest respect
for Leo and for his game. But have
won the American open. Barnes has
won the British open, and these titles
are regarded as the two biggest in
the professional game. Why should
we risk our championships against
the holder of a relatively minor title"
On the other hand, Diegel claims
the Canadian open has come to be as
big championship as either of the
other two. The same players COM
pete in the Canadian open that play
for the American championship and
Diegel claims the Canadian open is
a harder title to win than the British

Voigt's game yesterday was far
steadier than that of Pitt, but Voigt
must thank his stars he got away
with a win at the short sixth and a
half at the long seventh. for he might
easily have lost both holes. Pitt. on
the other hand, was unsteady from
the tee and failed to putt with the bril-
liancy shown by Voigt. After the
fourth hole the issue never was in
doubt. the .Bannockburn star showing
himself master of the match from that
point TO the finish.
Noigt won the qualification round
last Thursday with a score Of 70, and
upset all the traditions Of the royal
and ancient game when he also won
the tournament, for golf precedent has
it that a medalist never wins the
tournament. Precedent is not the only
thing Voigt will upset If he continues
the same fine brand of golf he showed
in winning the Bannockburn event.
The end came on the short fifteenth,
where both men were on the green
from the tee and Pitts try for a 2
stayed out, while Voigt laid his ball
dead. Voigt also won the tourney last
year.

would give the boys and girls Of

second, in time it could be used
as breeding place for. big mouth
bass for stocking the Potomac River
in the vicinity of Washington. He
said his idea was to allow a certain
number of bass to escape into the
Potomac each year.
''If certain minor restrictions, such
as bag limit and prohibiting fishing
from boats in the basin. are put into
effect, there will be no difficulty in
raising enough bass to stock our

EXPERTS ADVISE CUT IN VARIETY.
OF PAPER MONEY NOW ISSUED
Hold Only 81 and 50 Silver Certificates Are Needed.
FaUor S. Bank Notes, Whh Yelto,o Backs,
to Reduce Cost of Printing

A study by Treasury officials of the
problem of the Governments paper
money expenses has led to the ten
tative conclusion that the, public is
being supplied with more denomina-
tions in the various kinds of such
money that it needs.
Assistant Secretary Dewey. under
whose direction the study is being
made, believes it is time to correct this
result of topsy-turvy development
OF the Nations currency over many
years by eliminating some of the de-
nominations. If the Bureau of En-
craving and Printing's present paper
money output of 20 carloads annually
could be concentrated on fewer de-
nominations, he said today, it would
mean a material saving through
quantity production and less confusion
to the public.
Now Print 19 Types.
Without making it too difficult .
the Assistant Secretary continued, lit
may be explained that the Treasury
Is now turning out five general kinds
of paper money: Silver certificates,
United States notes. gold certificates,
national bank currency and Federal
Reserve currency With the latter
two, we are not concerned in this
study, but just consider the denomi-
nations of the first three kinds They
are issued in five. six and eight de-
nominations, respectively. making a
total of 19 types of "old fashion
money issued directly by the Treas
ury.'
Mr.. Dewey then pointed out that il
some way We're found to eliminate de-
nominations of the silver certificates.

There are two additional beds of

There are between $4,000 and $4,000
pansy plants. which We're set out last

Some OF the flowers are the largest
