Bierman Does The Worrying For Big Minnesota Team By RICHARD POWERS MINNEAPOLIS— (/P) —"Unemo tional football” is- the keynote of the University of Minnesota team, which was up6et into the defeated ranks by Northwestern after run ning up an amazing string of 21 consecutive victories. But Coach Bernie Bierman. the man behind the triumphant march that stretched through three full seasons and up to October 31 of ; this campaign, is a worrier of the j first order. Right now Bierman prays plain ' tively that his Galloping Gophers ! don’t stumble again as they head : into the November stretch, with j three troublesome rivals ahead “Don’t forget that we have two Big Ten teams and one with a strong Southwest conference elev en,” Bierman warns, after declar- ■ ing Northwestern deserved to over- j take his Gophers on the muddy gridiron at Evanston. “You can’t count those games with Iowa, the University of Tex as and Wisconsin in the win eol j umn until the scores are posted. I hope we get lucky.” The Gophers this season de feated the Washington Huskies at Seattle in their opener, Nebraska, Michigan and Purdue, then lost to uprising Northwestern, 0-6; when the "odds" caught up with them. They had weathered 28 games without a loss, but were tied four times in the 1933 campaign. Pep Talks Out Minnesota is favored in its three remaining games. but Bicrman i points out that they were supposed to whip Northwestern—and that1 last year, heavily favored over | Iowa, his men barely pulled out a j 13-6 win. Grid critics have paid tribute to ] the "poise” of the Gophers along 1 their long victory march and have called it an outstanding charac teristic of the team. Bierman is an exponent of "un emotional” football, refusing to key his men up before any game and omitting entirely any pep talks at intermission. Back in 1934 at Pittsburgh, when the Gophers tangled with Jock Sutherland’s Panthers, Minnesota trailed. 9-7, with 16 minutes re maining. Then in seven lightning thrusts they scored twice to win by 13-7. Bierman hadn't even appeared in the Gopher dressing room between halves until they were ready to go CHAMPIONSHIPS ARECLINCHED By HERBERT W. BARKER NEW YORK, Nov. 9—(/P>—Cham pionships in two conferences al ! ready definitely clinched by North western and Nebraska, the dizzy football whirl moves on to new and decisive tests on widely separated gridiron battlefronts this week. Last week’s general engagement removed Tulane, Southern Califor ; nia and Washington State from the rapidly dwindling list of major un | beaten teams and shed new light i on the situation revolving about ; the mythical national champion i ship award. Today only Northwestern, Mar ! quette and Santa Clara could boast j perfect records while Fordham, Georgetown. Utah State, Louisiana State and Alabama each still was unbeaten but had been tied once. Fordham will be idle this week. Northwestern should hurdle Mich igan comfortably but all the oth ers are running into possible trou ble. back to the gridiron. He said simply, "you have just 30 minutes left.” Mi* Up Plays The fastest backfleld and the heaviest line in Minnesota’s history put a heavy load on opposing elev ens. A mixture of quick thrusts With laterals on the end, a good passing game and straight power house plays keeps the defense scat tered—and as a result all are ef fective. Andy Uram. triple-threat left halfback is one of the fastest men j who ever wore the Maroon and Gold. Teaming with Julius Alfonse at right half, behind great block ing, he offers a touchdown threat from any poistion on the gridiron One of the most effective wea pons so far has been a thrust by Uram into the line and then a la teral to Alfonse, breaking fast around end. Bud Wilkinson not only is a brilliant signal caller but is a bru tal blocker and pass snatcher. Four fullbacks. Whitman Rork, Vic Spadaccipi, Larry Buhler and Geo. Fausts furnish the fullback punch. Minnesota’s line is rated as prob ably the greatest in Minnesota’s history—even remembering 1934 and 1935.
