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.

BERKELEY, Cal., Dec. 20. Uni
versity of California authorities today
sent a telegram to Harvard univer
sity declining an invitation to meet
the Crimson eleven at football at Cam

I "California greatly appreciates Har

"After careful consideration, we feel
that due to the length of time play

would injure their scholastic standing
to make the trip. The trip comes at

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.

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.

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.

WHITMAN COLLEGE Walla Walla,
Wash.. Dec 20. (Special.) No Whit

"Whitman college athletes who try
