S96.00 A MONTH EXTRA INCOME Mon., Wad., Fit, Sat., 7:45 - 3:15 10:15 - 5:45 Bryant makes USFL forget about Walker PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Kelvin Bryant is running away from Herschel Walker and the rest of the United States Football League. But he’s not one to let his success run away with him. “I’m just trying to do my job,” says the Philadelphia Stars' 6-foot-2, 195-pound rookie from North Carolina, who signed for an estimated $2 million over four years and was the highest paid player in the USFL until Walker signed with the New Jersey Generals in late February. “I'd *ust like for people to look at me as ok Keivin Bryant. I’d like for Herschel to do his thing, and I’M do mine." Bryant is the USFL’s leading rusher, with 454 yards on 91 carries. He had 112 yards in 22 carries Sunday and broke four tackles on a 38-yard pass play for the Stars’ final touchdown in a 27-22 loss to Tampa Bay. The loss, Philadelphia’s first, left the Bandits as the USFL’s only unbeaten team. “He’s a hard-nosed runner and a great competitor,” said Tampa Bay cornerback Jeff George. But Bryant says: “I don’t look at myself as the only one to generate the offense. The offensive line opens up the holes, and I just run through." As a high school freshman at Tarboro, N.C., Bryant ran for a touchdown the first time he got the football in his team’s season opener. He was the state 100-yard dash champion as a junior and piled up 1,420 yards rushing as a senior. At North Carolina, he recorded three 1,000-yard seasons although he was slowed by a sprained ankle his senior year. "The big question was about his durability," says Carl Peterson, the Stars’ president and general manager. “He’s had small injuries that have taken him away from the game. But he’s a much tougher runner than most people think." Bryant left Sunday’s game briefly with bruised ribs, but returned to score the final touchdown. He said he would be ready for practice Monday. He said he signed with the USFL because he liked the money and wanted a chance to be a starter. “The Stars offense reminds me of North Carolina’s,” he said. “But I didn’t do as much blocking in college. I still think I can get better at that. “I know a lot of people are saying this league is not going to make it, but it’s got a lot of good players, a lot of people who love to win.” Denver’s good as gold, ask Oakland DENVER (AP) — Quarterback Ken Johnson passed for two touchdowns and runn ing back Harry Sydney rushed for 83 yards and another score, powering the Denver Gold to a 22-12 victory over the penalty-plagued Oakland Invaders Monday night in United States Foot ball League action. Denver's victory, before an announced crowd of 38,720, produced a four-way tie for the lead in the Pacific Division among Denver, Oakland, Los Angeles, and Arizona ' all at 2-2. The first half, played in rain that gradually changed to light snow, saw the Gold score on its first two possessions to take a 15-0 lead at intermission. Sydney carried on the first four plays from scrimmage for a total of 38 yards to help set up Johnson's 10-yard toss to tight end Bob Niziolek for a touchdown with 10:42 left in the first quarter. Oakland, assessed 13 penalties for 107 yards, rallied for a pair of fourth-quarter scores. Fred Besana passed 8 yards to running back Ar thur Whittington with 10:03 left, then found tight end Raymond Chester on a 16-yard scor ing strike with 4:21 remaining.
