Among the casualties were Crosby,' the actor-crooner-golfer, and Jimmy McLarntn, the former world welterweight boxing cham pion. Crosby lost, 3 and . 2, to Marsh Hammond,, young Spokane Municipal links star, and McLarn in lost, 4 and 3, to Harry Um binetti of Seattle, a former na tional publlnx. competitor. Crosby and Hammond were all . square at the turn, but Bing's putter went bang on the second nine, and his game generally was more ragged than during the pre vious two days. McLamin lost the first five holes to Umbinetti, then settled down . and wound up with a 76, but Umbinetti was crowding par , all the way andhe little Cana dian battler couldn't overcome those early hole losses. Marvin "Bud" Ward of Spo kane, the former national amateur , champion, shot sub-par golf to de feat Young Al Appleton of Spo kane, 2 and 1. Medalist Louie Jennings of Portland had a close squeak in de feating unheralded Phil Namma of Seattle, 2 and 1. Jennings was one down at the turn, but a 34 on the second nine pulled him ahead. Jennings had an approxi mate 74 to Namma's J6. Ken Black of Vancouver, BC, the Canadian amateur champion, . was five up at the end of the first eight holes and coasted in to a 4 and 3 victory over H. V. Valen tine of. Spokane. Ralph Whaley of Seattle won on default from Fellow Towns man Gordon Wilson when Wilson . was unable to play because of the effects of medicine taken in treat ment of an infected nose. Mat Palacio, ir, of San Fran cisco, former California state titlist, advanced with a 3 and 2 victory over Al Kenney of Spo- kane. Long-geared Chuck Hunter of Tacoma wasdoing everything well but putt Anything the length of his forearm he couldn't can, and that's why he took so long to squeeze out a one-up wjnj over Phil Baird of Spokane. Worst licking of the day was administered by tiny Ken Storey, of Spokane, the 1934 titlist, who defeated Jim Johnson of Portland, 6 and 5, with la four-under-par display. .L Ranking as an" upset was the 3 and 2 victory turned in by Jack Shaw, Spokane Municipal links man, over the veteran Forest Wat son of Seattle, who won the tour ney in 1928, and who has played in all but one PNGA affair the last 23 years. A couple of stymies helped Shaw. Harry Givan of SeatUe, 1935- IS champion, was five up going to the 12th in hii match against Lt. John IL Payne of Fort Doug las, Utah, then was lucky to win 1 up. Payne, just as long a hit ter as Givan, turned in a streak; ' of birdies and pars while Givan, not in the best of health, tired in the final stages. 4 The plot thickens' Thursday, with the two principals matches featuring Ward vs. Givan and Jennings vs. Black. : Other -pair'' Whaley vs. Ernie Jonson; Par lacio vs. Umbinetti; Hammond vs. Loop Lead ....
