Montreal can clinch the title
tomorrow with a tie because in
that event the club with the
most goals scored during the

Otherwise. the winner of the
game will get the title.
No standing room tickets were
sold for tonight's game-another
move designed to prevent an

crowd of 1880 was the smallest

Montreal got away to a three

was never in serious danger.
Ten minor penalties were

grimly to his three-stroke lead
over the field in today's third
round of the $12,500 st. Peters
burg Open.
Difficult course conditions
cooled the handsome 32-year-old
ex-Marine from Louisiana con-
siderably, but he still managed to
put together q one-under-par II
for a 54-hole total of 202.
That left him three strokes in
front Of hard hitting Ed Furgol.
the National Open champion
from st. Louis. Furgol fired a
SO to advance from sixth place
into the runnerup position, re-
placing Cary Middlecoff Of
Memphis.
Middlecof went into a bad
slump, taking 70 for BOT and
skidding into a third-place tie
with John Barnum Of Grand
Rapids, Mich.
Officials Shift All Pins
Overnight, the course officials
moved all of the pins to the most
inaccessible points. The two-day
murder of par came to sudden
end and virtually all of the pros
came in complaining that the
"atrocious" locations of the pins
and the gusty winds made the
going extremely rugged.
Hebert, whose hopes Of break
ing the tournament 72-hole rec
ord of 266 were almost wiped out
by today's round, was one Of
those who suffered on the green's.
He three-putted twice for bogeys.
His II, which went with earlier
rounds of 66 and IS, left him in
need of a "a in tomorrow's final
round to equal the record made
in 1852 by Jack Burke of Hous-
ton. Until today Hebert was
ahead of Burke's average.
Furgol's strong bid to overtake
Hebert was slowed when he
missed two consecutive 2-foot
puts for brides on the 18th and
14th holes.
Wild Start for Barnum
Barnum, the first-day leader,
got off to a miserable start with
a triple-bogey 7 on the opening
hole. The Michigan veteran said
he was unnerved by the buzzing
of a movie camera when he
belted his first tee shot out of
bounds. He posted a u for 207.
Tied for fifth at 208 were Bo
