sports file AFC draft blurbs Cincinnati--What do you do when you need another running back? You get Samoa. And that's exactly what the Bengals did when they drafted Samoa Samoa (his nickname is Repeat) in the ninth round. Samoa is a cousin of Bengal's QB Jack Thompson and followed in Thompson's footsteps as QB at Washington State, but he will be switched to RB by the Bengals . . . Coach For­ rest Gregg calls WRs David Verser and Cris Collinsworth, the Bengals 1st and 2nd choices, "the two best receivers in the draft." Cleveland-- No. 3 pick Steve Cox handled both the punting and kicking chores at Arkansas last year and had the highest punting average in the nation, 46.5 yards including a long of 86. As a youngster, he was a six-time winner in Punt, Pass and Kick contests ... No. 2 choice Mike Robinson played at Glenville High School, a short distance from Cleveland Stadium. Baltimore--The Colts entered the draft hoping to im­ prove their defensive line and possibly obtain an outstanding FB to go along with RB Curtis Dickey. They got what they wanted. The Colts used their two first- round choices to acquire FB Randy McMillan and DT Donnell Thompson. McMillan is no stranger to the Baltimore area. He lives just a short car trip away in Jarettsville, Md. McMillan is pleased with the opportuni­ ty to play before his family and friends: "Baltimore is hometown to me. It came as a happy surprise when I found out the Colts had selected me." New York Jets--No. 1 pick RB Freeman McNeil says he can make an immediate contribution to the Jets running attack: "I can be as big as the team allows me to be. I'm not saying that to boost myself or make me seem like some type of superstar. If the offense is geared for a running attack, then I feel if that's what is called on me to do, I'll be able to do it." ... How can the Jets go wrong with Julius Caesar and Admiral Dewey on their roster? The Jets made DBs J.C. (Julius Caesar) Watts and Ad­ miral Dewey Larry their 9th and 10th choices and are hopeful they'll become as successful as their namesakes. Miami--The Dolphins, who finished 26th in the NFL in total offense last season, drafted three RBs, a QB and WR in the first six rounds . . . David Overstreet is the first RB drafted by the Dolphins in the first round since 1968. San Diego--The Chargers stressed offense by draf­ ting eight attack players, including RB Amos Lawrence, who rushed for 4,392 yards during his four-year career at North Carolina. Lawrence, the Charger's No. 3 pick, is "positively the most elusive back in America" says Chargers' scout Ron Nay... No. 12 choice Stacy Charles is the nephew of former New York Mets third baseman, Ed Charles. Kansas City--Out of 14 selections, the Chiefs drafted 10 offensive players including two TEs. "We felt tight end was a primary need for us," says Coach Marv Levy. "In Willie Scott (No. 1 choice) and Marvin Harvey (No. 3) we've taken care of it." The Chiefs plan to switch Mike Williams, who started the final 11 games last season at TE, to RB . .. 6-2,260-pound DT Dock Luckie (No.U-pick) might have beerMhe strongest player in col­ lege football last year. He can bench press 600 pounds. tv comnn.oa msvkcs. mc MONDAY, JUNE • own base newspaper (Repeat) • SI Flamingo Road Constance Carlyie'a willful behsvior drives her new husbsnd, Fielding, into • stesmy embrace ol former carnival dancer Lane Bal- lou; and the unscrupulous Sheriff Semple uses damaging informa­ tion he got by bugging Lute May Sander's night spot to drive Lane Ballou out of town.
