GROUND IS FROZEN NOW WEST POINT MAKES PLE I Military Academy Asks to Have Old Jim liurnes and Jock Hutchison to Decide Whether to Play MaUh or Continue Journey. Way of Getting Through AVater Revived. 14 GOLFING EXHIBITIOFJ IS DUE TOMORROW BREAST STROKE FOR SWIMMERS DECRIED 1 . jbss rSBsass r-3 BV GEORGE COWXE. If this cold snap hangs on, fur coats, ear muffs, foot warmers and even snow-shoes will be the uniform of the day at the Portland Golf club tomorrow when Jim Barnes and .lock Hutchison play Rudolph Wllhelm and . John Junor. Right now the Portland club course is froien to the hardness of concrete. On some parts of the course there are patches of snow three inches or more deep. No Immediate relief is promised from the cold weather, but a good old Chinook Is supposed to be brew lng somewhere out in the Pacific ocean. The chinook. which according to latest reports is headed this way, might terminate in a snow storm. As far as the Portland Golf club is con cerned that wouldn't improve- the situation any. V. C. Bristol, president of the Port land club, had lookouts posted at the course all day yesterday to watch for the first approach of the Chi nook, but late last night it hadn't hove In sight. Player to Decide. Regardless of the weather, every thing will be left to Barnes and Hutchison when they arrive as to whether the match will be played. C. C. Wintermute, chairman of the house committee at the Portland club, who has been prominent in the cam paign to bring the two champion here, says that If the visitors want to play they will be accommodated, even If they have to wear snowshoes or skiis to navigate the course. Barnes and Hutchison started their coast tour at Vancouver, B. C. last week, where the weather wa not altogether favorable to golf. At Se attle and Beilingham, where they played later, they ran Into about the same condition ns prevail in Port land now, so by the time they reach here the champions of two worlds should be ready to play a 36-hole match in the Alps if their contract called for the exhibition. HvfB Match? l'lnyeil. In Vancouver and Victoria, the pair of champions broke even in matches against the stalwart Canadian pro fessionals. At Vancouver they de feated Davt Black and Alex Duthte, 5 up and 4. Black, who holds the Canadian open championship, teamed up with Phil Taylor at Victoria and they succeeded in turning the tables against the champions, 2 up and 1. The directors of the Portland Golf club still have faith that the weather will turn out favorable for the match tomorrow. They are confident also that Rudolph Wllhelm and John Junor will make a real contest out of the match against Barnes and Hutchison. Wllhelm. besides winning the Pa cific northwest title once, has won the Oregon state championship sev eral times. Junor, professional at the Portland club, can play the game as well as teach it.

I "California greatly appreciates Har vard's invitation." the telegram said. "After careful consideration, we feel that due to the length of time play ers would be away from studies, it would injure their scholastic standing to make the trip. The trip comes at the time of mid-year examinations. Also team is obligated to make two long trips on the coast next year to Seattle and Los Angeles, Sincere re gret with many thanks and best wishes.

GOOD BIG GOLFER BETTER THAN GOOD LITTLE GOLFER Same Old Rule That Applies in Pugilism, Football and Other Sports Also True in a Measure of Golf, Says Hutchison. LITTLE GOLFER HAXDICAPPED BECAUSE HE CANT GET SAME DISTANCE AS II Hi MAN. BY JOCK HUTCHISON. Only American to Win British Open Championship. r S A LITTLE man handicapped in golf, or, better, perhaps, put it this way: "Has the bigger man in a golf match an advantage over a smaller opponent?" One of my readers has asked this question, and I feel pretty certain that he expects me to say the little man is In every way equal to a larger opponent on the links. Proficiency being more mental than physical it is pretty well assumed that everything Is about equalized by a good golf tern perament. Those who argue that the little man has as much chance ae the big man go back to golf records to prove their point. It is the same old circle all over again which leads to an endless discussion. In prize fighting, wres tling. running, baseball, football or any other sport one cares to mention, a good big man must have some edge on a good little man. Everything else being equal In golf, the big man has an advantage in be ing able to get more distance by put ting more power into the stroke. Therefore, he should gain consider able yardage over hi opponent by his extra leverage. If there were two men who were built exactly alike and possessed of the same golfing temperament and skill in every way, the only difference between them being that one. was larger, although otherwise an exact duplicate of the other, the larger man would play the better golf. His strength would tell in the end. Reserve Force Great Anaet. The large man carries a reserve that would count in his favor over a stretch of games. Luck might break decidedly against him, but his reserve force would find him getting greater distances out of the rough thian weaker opponent. Reserve force also permits him to play well within him self while the small man must stretch hie game to the very limit on each ahot to keep within hailing distance. I suppose I would have to be placed among the smaller men, although I am not a pigmy, as my normal weight is under 150 pounds. When I won the British open I weighed 140 and have weighed a little less than this at times. In my own case I find it has been no. discouragement to meet big ger and huskier opponents,' as some how I always waa able to get plenty of distance without pressing. Other golfers who have made en viable reputations on the links and who are no larger than myself in clude Jerry Travers, Chick Evans, Willie Hunter, H. H. Hilton. Laurie Jenkina, W. J. Travis, George Mc Lean, Johnnie McDermott, Leo Die gel, Eddie Loos and Mike Brady. In the m'diret class I would place Freddie McLeod. a former open cham pion who won this event when he weighed only 108 pounds; Jack Dow ling, who weighs about 118, and the late Louis Tel Her. who was also a bantam. Jim Barnes. Walter Hagen, Bob MacDonald, Alex Smith, Emmet 7ne T. Trfhn. ha. CHANCE TO PLAY CALIFORNIA XEXT YEAR 3IISSED. Corvallis Grid Fans Declare That They Expected to Meet Bears Every Second Season.. OREGON AGRICULTURAL COL LEGE, Corvallis. Dec 20. (Special.) Oregon Aggie football supporters are disappointed with the conference schedule because it does not provide for a game with the University of California. It had been generally un derstood that the Beavers would play California every other year. In 1920 the Bears played at Corvallis; in the season just ended no game was ar ranged, but in 1922 O. A. C. should play California at Berkeley. The Aggie schedule, however, calls for five conference games, not includ- French, Gil NIchoIla, Harry Vardon, Ted Ray, George Duncan. Abe. Mit chell, James Braid and Sandy Herd are above 160 pounds. Vardon. Ray and MacDonald are the heavyweights. In the amateur ranks we have the new champion. Jesse Guilford, Bob Gardner, Dave Herron, Oswald Kirk- by, C. J. Tolley. Roger Whethered and Tommy Armour leading the heavy weight brigade. i believe, however, that a man weighing as much aa 160 pounds need never worry over anyone's out driving him through brute strength alone. We will take the case of Abe Mitchell, who weighs a shade under 160. He ia just the same weight as George Duncan. Abe has the reputa tion of being the longest driver in the world. He Is also possessed of a lot of the golfing reserve so neces sary for day-in and day-out play in which he engages regularly. Small Man Must Be Accurate. The names of the foregoing golf ers mentioned In the lightweight and bantam classes should be plenty of encouragement to the little man. There is no necessity for a man to feel that his game is hopeless be cause he is email. There are plenty of good women golfers who have succeeded In spite of all the physical handicaps one caxes to mention. They succeed because they play within their limitations. The little man who is forced to stretch his game to keep up with a long driving opponent or a terrific Iron hitter comes to grief sooner or later. He mu.it attempt to make almost impossible carries over bunk ers and traps. The woman golfer does not do this and' Is therefore able to get a fairly good score. The big man, sometimes, makes the fatal mistake of overplaying. That Is, he Is not content with an average dxlve but wants to kill the ball every time. "There is no advantage in this. The big man should study a method of keeping them straight and letting the distance take care of Itself. Di rection is usually most important to him. The small man can get distance If he will pay more attention to his pivoting and the correct timing. It is not always the force that counts in the golf stroke. Rhythm often means Just as much or more. The weakest of ua can play a pretty good game If we do not permit our oppon ents to Influence ua. Some good players never watch their opponents nit the Dan and never care where it goes. It is a good plan If one can school himself to follow it. The Iron club play tells the story between the big and the little man. The midlron In the hands of a pow erful player ia a very useful weapon for getting distance out of the rough or through the fairway. It makea a vast difference In your approach to the green whether you are using an Iron or a brass!. The iron will in sure better direction as a rule, and the player who can use it instead of a wooden club will gain something In a round, weight is not everything. A golfer who is just fat is handi capped. I (Copyright by the Bell Syndicate, Iue.) 5 NOW FLAKE ing California, and' one with Multno mah at Portland.

Once again a college is making a flgbt against its men participating In bush base- hall. Whitman college, of Walla Walla. Wash., through R. V. Borleske, has served notice on all athletes at the college that Whitman athletes who attempt to play on any other than college teams, whether amateur or professional, will be debarred from all college athletic activities for one year." The ruling Is aimed primarily at baseball players. The participation of college baseball men In bush ball and attempts to stop the cus torn are as old the hills. College play- 1 ers all over th country play on amateur and bush ball teams after, and even dur ing, the regular college season. It la a question every college in the country is Interested In, hut to aats no method of stopping the practice has been evolved, and probably never will be. It is no unusual thing for a college base ball player to participate In bush ball under an assumed name. Sometimes they get away with it. Due mere are timet when the cat Jumps out of the bag.

Orpheum matinee today, 15-25-50-Ad. BY NORMAN ROSS. CHICAGO, HI.. Dec. 20. (Special Swimmers of West Point want a breast stroke race added to the pro gramme of events for the eastern conference, claiming that this styl needs to be made popular because 1 is the only one which enables th soldier to swim with full equipment, and is necessary in saving life. Both of these claims are incorrect. In the first place no one could swim with full equipment as equipmen now runs, then again the scissors kick gives more power than the frog kick, and Is easier to learn. Fo live saving the easiest style is that of the single overarm, which la much faster and can be used over greater distances. If efficiency is sought, which seems to be the West Pointer's argument, it would be better to introduce a style which is not hampered by castiron regulations. The scissors kick af fords more driving power and causes less resistance than the frog kick The frog kick Is prescribed for breast stroke races. Men are disqualified every day for unorthodox movements, all of which tend to give more speed to the stroke. What is the idea of I these races, to see how slowly one 1 can swim? It does not seem logical to prohibit anything In a race which tends to help the contestant gain his I goal faster Still the breast stroke la retained aa a national and international racing medium. Once In a while one is led to wonder at the reason. It is thoroughly obsolete stroke and it seems only logical to abolish it al together for competitive purposes. Evidence of the fact that swim ming has become thoroughly popular as a sport is evidenced by the rig i res of attendance at the Olympic I games last summer. Soccer drew the I bice-pst crowds. Track and field urew 28.000 and swimming 24,600. For 1 swimming to come third on the list and so close to track athletics is s!g nificant of its widespread popularity American styles and methods of training are at last oeing recoKnizea hr being- of some VAlue. It has taken many years to show the rather ob stinate English and Australian lol lowers of aquatics that the United States had the right dope. Australia has made such great profits from the two International tours of American swimmers, and have been beaten so badly, that they are now after an American coach to teach our styles and methods. Latest m wa from London convey the fact that English swimming authorities desire a Yankee also to help them prepare for the next big contests. Charlotte Boyle and Margaret Woodbrldge Concluded their duel for premier honors in the feminine aqua, tic sphere when Miss Boyle won the 50-yard national title at Milwaukee in 30 2-5 seconds. That makes two apiece, Miss Woodbrldge having won the 220 and 500 and Miss Boyle the .'0 and 100. It Is my belief that were the races to be swum again Miss Boyle would win them all. as she stopped in both the 220 and 500. either through distress or from a mistaken Idea of the number of laps gone. Both girls are beautiful swimmers and will make Ethelda Bleibtrey hus tle on her return from the Antipodes. WHITMAN' ATHLETES WARNED Men Barred From Playlnjr on Out side Teams Next Year.
