'v. 4C May 1, 1977, Lincoln, Sunday Journal and Star Matured Everett I philosophical I I If I "i 4 it vv' i By Randy York Staff Sports Writer Not that Earl Everett was ever cocky, but you would expect a little more childish enthusiasm out of someone after he touched the ball six times Saturday and accounted for 195 yards in Nebraska's an- nual spring football game. Instead, Everett, the former quarterback who has shown the patience of Job in 5Vfe fragmented years in a Cornhusker uniform, turned philosopher. "Even if I wouldn't have had a good game today, I wouldn't be complaining," he said. "Football at Nebraska has Individual results White Rushing given me confidence in myself athletically, 'socially and academically.

It's made me feel I can go out and compete in this world as a young man." Everett certainly competed Saturday. He caught two passes for 42 yards and gained 21 more on a pair of runs. His most electrifying acts were two kickoff returns for 132 The first was a 96-yard sprint with 5:55 left in the first quarter after the Red team had assumed a 7-0 lead. "That's my first kickoff return touchdown ever," Everett said. "I knew I had it when Dodie (Donnell) turned around and started looking me in the face.

He had everything behind me. When I saw that, I knew it was smooth sailing." Although Everett insists he's a tenth of a second faster this year in the 40, he wasn't about to slow up on the touchdown run to test his theory. "You never know. Ever once in awhile, the bear (a fictitious athletic animal) will jump on an athlete's back and slow him down," Everett said, borrowing an expression from his old Kansas City high school coach, Bill Myles, who left Nebraska last winter for Ohio State. Everett thought he was due for a good spring game.

He may be the only NU athlete ever to experience six spring practice sessions since he was graduated from high school at mid-term. He practiced the No. Yds.

Tim Hager "I'm going td have to work on my throwing and just spend time trying to do things more consistently! By Dave Sittler Staff Sports Writer At the conclusion of Saturday's Red-White spring game, most of the Nebraska quarterbacks seemed to have one thing on their minds hard Four of the too five quarter- backs battling for the No. 1 job, indicated they are going to spend their summer months preparing for the challenge of replacing Vince Ferragamo as Nebraska's starting signal-caller next fall. Jeff Quinn, proved to be as elusive off the field as on. Quinn, who is known for his slick running ability, had showered, dressed and departed the lockerroom before he had a chance to be interviewed. Here are the comments of the other four quarterbacks concerning their quest to become the Nebraska starter: Tom Sorley "I'm going to work my tail off this summer to become the best football player mentally and physically that I can be.

I'm going to be prepared for the challenge next fall. I'm sure the other Randy Garcia "It's still open. It's just going to depend on who comes back the most prepared. I felt great out there today. In the past I've always been fourth or fifth going intq the spring game with nothing to lose.

Today I had a lot lose so I had a lot of pressure on me, but I felt calm, in control. I knew what I was doing all the time. I was pushing the ball a bit when I was George Andrews has Olympia By Bob Moyer Staff Sports Writer Monte Steenson and his Olympia Gold mates have mixed feelings about winning the men's state bowling tournament scratch team title. We're very happy to win. of course, says Steenson.

"But when we shot our score (3041, on the first day of the tournament) I was sure it would never hold up." But their score did hold up as the men's state bowling tour- nament drew to a close Satur-; day at Parkway and Briarpark Lanes locally. Along with Olympia Gold, other scratch champions included Bill Straub, Lincoln, all events and doubles; Bob Kopystynsky, Grand Island, singles and John Tavlin, Lin-' coin, doubles.

Argentina's No. 2 player Ricardo Cano, a last-minute substitute for Guiller-mo Vilas, teamed with Elio Alvarez in the losing cause.

The aggressive Americans served harder, attacked more and dominated the net through-out the one-sided match. The result left Argentina vith a 2-1 lead on the basis of singles victories Friday by Cano and Vilas. Cano faces Brian Gottfried and Vilas plays Dick Stockton in Sunday's final singles of the best-of-five series.

Keeping his weight around 191 pounds and avoiding nagging hamstring injuries this spring have helped Everett recapture his :04.5 speed in the 40. "I've just had a few bruises this spring and that's all," he noted. "I haven't had to be so cautious." Still, Everett isn't ready to assign the wingback position to himself.

"I've always dreamed of being first team," he said, "but I'm not expecting changes into fall camp. Curtis Craig had an outstanding spring, too.

For Esquivel the scratch team win culminated an outstanding state tourney as he finished second to Straub in the all events and narrowly missed the scratch title in singles. Handicap champions included Oly Rollers team, Gerald Wilson of Kearney, singles and Max Kaspar and Tony Divis, Wahoo, doubles. Members of the winning Oly Rollers team include Mike McPherson, Leroy Juengel, Bruce Sweney, Doug Watkins and Marv Niederhaus. Steenson felt bowling on the same pair of lanes against Max Jensen's Olympia Beer team sparked his group to the win. "We knew if we could beat Max's team we might have a good chance at winning it all," says Steenson.

"Actually we trailed them throughout the whole match until at the very end when we got hot and passed them." For the youthful Steenson and Heffelfinger, the scratch title was third for each in the past five seasons. The duo combined for scratch doubles wins in 1973 and 1975. While the men's state tourney concluded action Saturday, the women's state bowling tournament will complete its course today. Saturday there were no lead changes in the women's tourney.
