Wilkinson and Mum
Top LIST Of Possible
Bierman Successors
BY the Associoted Press

MINNEAPOLIS, Nov. 14.-The
line Of candidates to succeed Ber-
ME Bierman as head football
coach at the University of Min
nesota was forming today. but
officially there was nobody in it.
Word of Bierman's request to
be relieved of his duties at the
end of the year hardly had spread
when admirers Of various gridiron
geniuses got to work nominating
their man for the post.
The nominations came from
every part of the country. But
they all followed about the same
form: 80 and So Of Such and
Such o college expressed surprise
and regret at word of Bierman's
resignation and said he had not
been approached"
And that was exactly the situa-
ton as outlined by Athletic Direc-
tor Ike Armstrong. who stuck to
his statement of yesterday that
he wouldn't even discuss Sue
cessor until the season is over"
Wilkinson Won't Comment.
Through it all, though, names
of some Of the coaches were re-
peated. One Of those was Bud
Wilkinson. popular and successful
coach at Oklahoma. In Oklahoma
City, Wilkinson said he had not
been approached and that he had
no comment on what he might do
If the job were offered him.
Wilkinson, who played under
Bierman in 1894 and 1885. was
quoted by a close friend as saying
previously that eff Bernie can't
make it, no other coach can,
either" The friend said he was
convinced Wilkinson wouldn't
take the post.
The same word came from Dali
las Ward, former assistant to
Bierman, now at Colorado. He,
too, hasn't been approached. he
said.
The name of another Minnesota
alumnus. Clarence "Biggie" Mum,
whose Michigan State team ad-
ministered the sixth defeat to this
years Gophers last Saturday. is
another on the unofficial lists.
Mum was freshman coach under
Bierman in Bernie's first year at
Minnesota-1932.
Brown and Frnka Mentioned.
Paul Brown. coach of the
Cleveland team of the National
Professional Football League, also
was suggested. along with Henry
Frnka of Tulane. The prospects
of Brown and Frnka, however,
were considered pretty slim by
fans in this locality.
On the other side of the picture
came the ''no-comment" reply of
Dana K. Bible, athletic director
at the University of Texas, when
asked whether Bierman would be
considered as head coach at
Texas. Coach Blair Cherry will re-
tire at Texas after the 1850 season.
Regardless Of who gets the
Minnesota job, he will be faced
with the task Of following the
coach who wrote some of the
brightest pages in the history of
Minnesota football.
Made Great Record.
Bierman-coached teams have
won national titles five times and
the championship of the Western
Conference six times. In the 18
years he has been at the school,
Bierman's teams have won o.
games, lost "a and tied six.
While Bierman had little to say
other than his terse announce
ment, Mrs. Bierman said the word
came as relief
She said she knew her husband
was going to resign, but that the
timing of it came as surprise
to her.
"You know, the Big Ten is get
ting to be young mans coach
ing field" Mrs. Bierman said.
Bierman is 56 years old.
Il knew this day was in
evitable," she added. It just
didn't think it would come so
soon"

Music
Virgil Fox Gives
Life to Organ in
Fine Recital
By Elena de Soyn

Virgil Fox. whose popularity be-
came well established here during
World War II, played an organ re-
cital in the First Congregational
Church to a full house last night.
There are not many American
or foreign organists who make
speciality of extracting such a va
riety of tonal shadings from an
organ as does Mr.. Fox. When it
comes to showing off the instru-
ment'S resources in that line, or
drawing attention to the respon-
siveness of the deeper toned pipes
to an agile manipulation by the
feet, Mr.. Fox becomes a magician.
The inanimate and unwieldly Or
gan becomes alive and vibrant
and begins to reflect any mood he
chooses. Bach's 'Fugue a la
Clique" was one of these instances
when the pipes became almost hu-
man in their response to the
executant's manifestations of
jolly good time.
Mr.. Fox's piece de resistance
was Erik Satie's Mass for the
Poor" which he brought over
from France recently and played
here for the first time. He was
assisted in the performance by
members of the First Congrega-
tional Church Choir and Marion
E. Gibbons, organist, playing an
antiphonal organ. Both the choir
and the organ were placed in
such a manner as to give the i'm
preston of distance. The chant
ing. the dialogue between the two
organs and the combination of the
three were impressive, with the
sound reduced to a mere whisper
at the end.
Mozart's Fantasia" composed
by him in just an hours time. as
explained by Mr.. Fox, Florent
Schmitt's Prelude" given with
great deal of imagination, and
Healey Williams Introduction,
Passacaglia and Fugue" were pro-
grammed together with Bach's
"Air for G String" and "Toccata
in F Major"

Jewish problems had to do
mainly with managing to pay the
rent for the hall in which the
congregation worshipped or with
being helpful toward a newcomer
from Europe who was trying to
make a start.
when I was l3 the first time
I didn't know the word anti
Semitism' or that there was any
one who might dislike me be-
cause I was a Jew. Somebody
might dislike me because
wouldn't let him look over my
shoulder in examination in school
or because I defeated him in the
spelling match. But he never
called me Jew on that account.

ners. no speeches. no quotas. To
be Jew had to do with being in
the synagogue on the Sabbath.
with delicious eating at Passover.
with candle lights on Chanuka.
with celebrating the downfall of
Hannah. No theological quarrels:
maybe an occasional quarrel over
who should be president of the
schul.
my friends, l come back to
my 18th year to find much diff
ferent world from that which l
knew when l left the age of Is
long ago. Judaism has much
more to do with drives than with
religion. Anti-Semitism has be-
come a vested interest of many
communities, each after funds.

How much are you after this
time and for what? l ask him.
He is asking for money for this
or that, for everything except the
main thing of Judaism which is
Jewish faith.
Even Jewish religion has
mainly to do with collecting
funds in competition with secular
projects. We have magnificent
sYnagogues in place of the halls
and store rooms in which Jews
worshipped when I was Is the
first time: the sparse congrega-
tons are of widows and old men.

THE first time l was Is our
people found in their faith suf-

It carried them through all their

making a living and bringing up
their children right. Now we
have nothing but Florida where
we suffer whenever we notice

an easy task this day by day grind and there are
many obstacles or drawbacks In discussing this prob
lem James M. Cox Jr, President of the Dayton
Journal-Herald and News, expressed some thoughts
at the recent 22nd annual mechanical conference OF
the American Publishers Association that of necessity
have been uppermost the minds of newspaper
aements for time now.
Down through the generations, since the days OF
Franklin the nations newspaper have grown into the
foremost medium of public information and entertain
ment and also into the greatest vehicle for mass
merchandising They have done this by offering much
for little. True, the days of the penny newspaper
are gone, but its modern equivalent, though costing
several times as much offers incornparaby in
the way of coverage, features services, guild
ance entertainment There still few bargains
to compare with the outstanding modern daily
paper.
However-and this the topic dealt with by
Mr. Cox-the newspaper of today is caught in a
pointed out, continue to raise advertising rates nor
price itself out of the market by increasing cir
culation rates. Therefore, apart from the proper
balancing of structure to suit individual stu
atoms, the problem shared by most all news
papers is to deal with increasing production costs
and lowering productivity. Mr.. Cox said Il have no
quarrel with organized labor, and feel it has been
one the great contributing factors in giving our
workers the highest standard of living in the world
However there is point beyond which demands and
practices which threaten the existence of business
must be refused if we are to survive"
Taking note of some steps taken by the Interna
tional Typographical Union to promote increased pro-
ductivity Mr. said: This is heartening and shows
recognition of what going on because unless these
men feel they part of our business, to sink or
swim with us, it is just simply matter of sitting
around the table endless negotiations, the results
of which are mistrust, antagonsm and Illustration
on both sides"
have a common stake with the arrangements in max
ing it possible for newspapers to continue as the
foremost medium of mass information and advertis-
ing because it vitality concerns their future, too
