JACKSONVILLE, Fla. Mar. 18.
Jerry Barber, likable little man
vino has sold nearly all his fellow
professionals on the golf glove he
invented, gave them a show of
record-breaking golf today.
On a 32-33-65 tour of the
6,508-yard Hyde Park course, his
seven-under-par score went nicely
with his II of yesterday for the
36-hole lead in the Jacksonville
open at 1856.
Barber, who is playing out of

ton from Bob Hamilton of Prince

Besides Barber and Hamilton,
two other pros came to the front
of the pack with great sub-par
rounds. Jack Burke of White
Plains, N. Y, and Skip Alexander
of Knoxville. Tenn, carded 81
apiece.
Burke burned up the first nine
with record of his own, five
under-par 81, but the best he
could do on the other nine was
match par on every hole for
second round Ct.
Alexander and Bill Nary of Los
Angeles were deadlocked for fifth
place at 139. Burke, who had
opened with q 73, had company
at 140 in the persons of George
