Among the time -honored adages
of the prize ring is one that says,
in effect: "A good little man can
not be expected to defeat good big

1t is doubtful if the argument

There is no common school of box

years fight alike. The best men in
the game are self taught and fol-

That may be putting 1t rather
strongly. but the fact remains that
the days when the blows and
guards were as defined as the cuts

McWhorter VIII Go to Harvard,
SaysRumor; GeorgiaMan Would
Be a Star in the big League

"HAT Bob McWhorter is to en-
ter Harvard next fall and to
finish out his football and
college career at Cambridge is the
rumor that has hit Georgia hard
here of late.
1t was the rumor in Athens at
the time of the Auburn game. 1t
has been the rumor here for weeks.
1t is stronger now than 1t was three
weeks ago, when it first began to
circulate.
Such rumor WIS circulated last
fall, but was then denied. This year
there seems more reason than ever
for believing the thing may come
off.
The election Of McWhorter as
captain of the Georgia team was
taken by some to set at rest the
rumor, but by others 1t was be-
lieved that the position was given
to McWhorter as an added induce
ment to stay another year at the
University of Georgia.
IL Bob McWhoTter goes to Har-
ward, he should make the biggest
sensation of any Southern player in
a long time.
McWhorter has never been able
to do himself Justice at Georgia
His services have been so constant
ly needed on the offensive that he
has never been allowed to do his
full share of the defensive work.
On big league team. where he
could divide the offensive play with
some other stars, he could make
himself equally useful on the de-
fensive and at such work his su-
perb strength and his speed and
courage should make him a star.
DERHAPS the best line on the
real merits of Southern football
players is obtained by consolidat-
ing the All-Southern picks and thus
obtaining a consensus of opinion"
