Barber Shatters Course Record Montreal U.R) The rest' of the field forgot about par today and tried to beat Jerry Barber, a determined little golfer from La Canada, Calif., as the $25,000 LaBatt open went into the sec ond round at the Summerlea Golf club here. Barber led the way with his six-under-par 64, breaking all records on the par 70 Lakeshore course.

The five-foot, five-inch 137- pound Barber stripped two strokes off the competitive course record of 66 held by Mon- treals Jerry Proulx since the 1942 open..

Benson's opposition to high farm price supports' has not been shaken by last week's -referendum in which wheat farmers overwhelmingly endorsed high supports for 1954, an aide said today. The statement followed warning from Sen. Milton R. i Young. (RN.D.), that "if Secre tary Benson sticks by his prev ious policy pronouncements in spite . of the wheat vote, there will be no hope fqr the Repub licans winning the farm vote in 1954 elections." Hailed As Proof Young and other farm bloc legislators from the Midwest and South hailed the wheat verdict as proof that farmers generally want high supports. They noted that 87.2 per cent of the farmers participating voted for high sup-' ports coupled with production controls. . - If fewer than two-thirds of the farmers voting last Friday had approved controls, they would have been dropped and price supports would have dropped from 90 per cent of the "fair earning power" parity level to 50 per cent. Verdict Expected Benson said he had expected the verdict and called it "a wise decision ... in the best interests of the farmers." An aide made it clear today, however, that Benson was speak ing only about 1954 wheat. This spokesman said there is "no change at all" in Benson's long range belief that high supports are bad for farmers "because they encourage over-production and maintain the inefficient producer."
