Billed as the first collegiate game ever to have two Heisman Trophy winners on the same field, the Hula Bowl yesterday had only one of them flashed his ground-gaining form for a game-leading 57 yards on 15 carries to earn the outstanding offensive player award in this 34th production of the post-season all-star classic. Sims also grabbed a nine-yard pass from scrambling quarterback James Streater of Tennessee for the first East touchdown in the second quarter that knotted the score at 7- all. Left-handed quarterback Paul McDonald, a White teammate at In uniform. Charles White of Southern California, who ran himself to the coveted Heisman hardware this season, was advised not to play after coming down with the flu during the Hula Bowl banquet Friday night. White, whose big play capabilities were sorely needed by a slightly bogged-down West offense, offered his apologies to the crowd in a brief pre-game address.

But Billy Sims of Oklahoma, who claimed Reisman glory in 1978, game that featured more defensive crunch than offensive punch, suddenly found the East only 15 yards from the end zone with six minutes left in the third quarter. Four plays later, fullback Matt Suhey of Penn State lifted his solid 6- foot, 215-pound bulk in a spectacular high dive over the middle of the line for the final yard and a touchdown that broke a 7-7 halftime tie and put the East in front for keeps.

Or should we say, he'll never forget half of it The other half he'll never remember.

Jett was having a grand time midway through the fourth quarter of the East's 17-10 victory when he ran a I5-yard curl pattern and leaped for a high pass thrown by Southern California's Paul McDonald. Just when the jumping Jett's hands touched the ball somewhere near the clouds, a defender from the East cut his legs from under him and De Wayne did a great imitation of an airplane propeller. For Jett, whose afternoon's production consisted of one pass reception for 13 yards, the Hula Bowl ended right then and there. Out cold, he didn't move for several minutes, which be was surprised to discover after the game. "I can't remember anything.

The only thing I remember is going out for the second hall," De-Wayne as he dressed in the West's locker room. "I'm still dizzy and my neck is killing me. "I think I had fun, but I'm not sure. All I know Is that this is the Hula Bowl and I'm representing theTniversity of Hawaii." Although his injury and discomfort appeared to be tkmporary, Jett was admitted last night to Queen's Medical Center for observation. Actually, Jett might have been the luckiest player wearing a West uniform.

In what probably won't be recalled as a classic Hula Bowl Classic, the only notable excitement in the second half was the play that beat the West and made quarterback Mark Malone of Arizona State wish he too could forget the whole thing. Malone, a 6-4, 220-pounder who can probably run through a wall easier than he can hit one with a football, underthrew wide open Nebraska tight end Junior Miller on a flea-flicker play, leading to Army defensive back David Charest's interception and 58-yard return that set up the winning touchdown, a one-yard flight leap by Penn State's Matt Suhey, Charest's return, by the way, tied a Hula Bowl record. "It was a double reverse flea-flicker and I was trying to hit Junior Miller, but I underthrew it a little bit," said Malone. "I was trying to drop it in (over Charest) but I didn't get enough on it. I didn't play that well and I wish I had played a See '4 'FUN GAME' on Page 13-2 ii RUSHING: EastSims 15-57, Cribbss 9-56.

If you really want to find out what a running back has inside of him, don't give him the ball on fourth and four with two minutes to play and his team trailing by five points. That's the easy part.

I mean, getting to the goal line is instinctive. That's where the glory is in the end zone. If you really want to find out what a running back is made of, don't put him in the big games, put him on the bench. Don't give him an interview on national television, give him a limp. Tell him he's an All-American one year and ignore him the next.

And whatever you do, keep his picture off the cover of Sports Illustrated. No sir, if you really want to find out what a running back has inside of him, put him in M. Hipp's shoes. You see, 1979 was supposed to be THE year for Isaiah Moses Walter Hipp, the greatest running back who ever walked up to Nebraska coach Tom Osborne and said, "I wanna play football." He was already a two-time All-American. Not only did he have the perfect name how many I.

M. Hipps do you know? but he was well-qualified. He weighed 200 pounds. He could run 40 yards in 4.4 seconds. He could bench press 315 pounds.

With a great season he could be the one to wrestle the Reisman Trophy away from Lilly Sims. Anyone who knows a football isn't stuffed can tell you a college running back couldn't ask for more. Right away, it was obvious Isaiah was prepared to make the most of his opportunity. Ile opened the 1979 season with a 167-yard afternoon against Utah State.

It was, perhaps, only fitting that Strayhorm the man who sent the game into overtime by missing a pair of free throws in the final (LO2 of regulation, should find atonement in a game-winning 19.foot jumper with two seconds left in overtime. And both Strayhorn and the Rainbows needed that redemption desperately. Strayhorn had gone into the air with that final shot feeling heavily the weight of a 1-for-17 start in the Western Athletic Conference while the Bows' iniation had been similarly severe in the opening loss to Wyoming. "Hopefully," said a relieved head coach Larry Little. "this one broke the ice for us.

We really needed this one." The 14-day, five-game roadtrip the Bows embark upon this afternoon would have seemed light years longer if an 0-2 WAC record had been part of the baggage. With three conference stops and a visit to Las Vegas included in the itinerary, the Bows can at least take some measure of confidence into the first stop. a Tuesday night game at San Diego State. "In terms of confidence this had to be a big one, maybe the biggest, one for us," said Little. "We played a lot harder than we did against Wyoming.

There was a lot of improvement and a lot more effort on the court."
