The professional golfers' association's "batting averages" for the winter circuit today find Harold (Jug) McSpaden, 26-year old Kansas City professional, leading the active barnstorming tournament performers by a half a stroke. McSpaden, winner of the recent Sacramento and San Francisco tournaments, played ten full rounds of golf during January for an average of 71 9-10 per round. Steadiness rather than sensational play accounted for his record. He broke 70 only once. The westerner's closest pursuer was tall Henry Pickard of Hershey, Pa.

Pickard averaged 72 2-5. Tommy Armour, Bobby Cruick-shank, Bill Mehlhorn, MacDonald Smith and J. Turnesa were rated in that order ahead of McSpaden but they only played four rounds each. Armour averaged 70 1-4 strokes. PLUS IN PERSON AN ALL NEW PROGRAM OF SCREEN FEATURETTES ON THE SCREEN THRU COURTESY PEPSODENT CO.
