Cleveland to make
Kosar’s wish reality
Associated Press
NEW YORK — University of
Miami quarterback Bernie Kosar,
who used the small print in the
National Football League rule-
book to ensure that he would be
drafted by Cleveland, will get his
wish Tuesday when he’s taken by
the Browns in the NFL’s 1985
supplemental draft.
Kosar, who graduated this
month, will be the first, and per
haps the only player taken in the
draft from among the 15 colle
gians eligible to be chosen by the
28 NFL clubs.
He will be taken by the
Browns, his favorite team, who
obtained the normally worthless
pick from the Buffalo Bills in a
complicated and controversial
trade that finally had to be
upheld by Commissioner Pete
Rozelle.
Under NFL rules, the supple
mental draft is held every season
for players who complete college
or otherwise become eligible after
the regular NFL draft at the end
of April. Teams pick or pass, in
the same order as the regular
draft, but it is rarely of any note
— the only other first-round pick
was in 1981 when the New Or
leans Saints took quarterback
Dave Wilson of Illinois.
Kosar, who led Miami to the
national championship in 1983,
has played only two college sea
sons. But he announced last
March — six weeks before the
regular draft —that he planned
to take enough credits to grad
uate this summer, and could have
declared himself eligible.
In fact, the Minnesota Vikings,
who picked third, exchanged
picks with the Houston Oilers,
who chose second, in an effort to
take him in the regular draft. But
simultaneously, the Browns
traded with Buffalo for his rights
in the supplemental draft.
The Bills and Oilers appealed
to Rozelle, but he upheld the
deal, effectively allowing Kosar to
choose the team he wanted.
A native of Boardman, Ohio,
who had said all along he wanted
to play in Cleveland, Kosar pre
dictably opted to bypass the regu
lar draft, then completed his
school work and declared his eli
gibility for Tuesday’s session.
Under NFL rules, a team mak
ing a choice in the supplemental
draft forfeits the corresponding
pick in the next regular draft. Be-
cause of the trade, the Browns
will forfeit Buffalo’s No. 1 pick
next season, but the Bills will get
Cleveland’s No. 1 in return.
There are 14 other players eli
gible for the draft, which will be
conducted by telephone and telex
at the league’s New York office.
But few if any are expected to be
chosen —even in the 12th round
— by teams that could just as eas
ily sign them as free agents.
They are:
Calvin Adams, defensive back,
East Carolina; Dino Bell, de
fensive back, Kansas; James Co-
razzini, kicker, El Camino Junior
College; Peter Esterhuizen,
kicker, Wisconsin-Platteville;
Thomas Fowler wide receiver,
Cal State-Long Beach; Cornell
Gowdy, defensive back,'Morgan
State; John Grier, running back,
Arizona State; Courtney Griffin,
running back, Arizona; Don Jef
ferson, defensive back, Florida
A&M; Delman Moore, defensive
back, Texas Tech; Joe Rucky,
tight end, Kent State; Linzey
Smith, wide receiver, Florida; Er
nest Warfield, running back,
Weber State, and John Wilson,
defensive back, Southern Illinois.
Howe’s status
with Dodgers
still clouded
Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — Los Angeles
Dodgers’ reliever Steve Howe met
with club officials Monday to discuss
his mysterious absence from Sun
day’s game against Atlanta, but nei
ther Howe nor the Dodgers would
talk about his immediate future with
the team.
Accompanied by attorney Jim
Hawkins, Howe met with team offi
cials for less than an hour at Dodger
Stadium and left immediately af
terward without tommenting.
There was also- no comment from
Dodgers officials, including owner
Peter O’Malley, but they indicated
an announcement would be made
later regarding Howe’s status with
the club.
The left-handed reliever, who was
suspended for the 1984 season be
cause of cocaine abuse, was placed
on the National League restricted
list after missing Sunday’s game.
Dodger spokesman Steve Brener
said he turned up early Monday, ap
parently at his home.
The club lost track of Howe Satur
day. He was at Dodger Stadium for
an afternoon game, but failed to
show up that night for a Boy Scout
function he had helped organize.
He still was missing Sunday, as the
Dodgers beat the Atlanta Braves 4-3
in an afternoon contest.
Wimbledon's top seeds advance
Associated Press
WIMBLEDON, England —John
McEnroe, Ivan Lendl and Chris Ev
ert Lloyd battled their way into the
fourth round of the Wimbledon ten
nis championships Monday as sun
shine and warm weather iinally ar
rived in London after a week of
chilling rain.
McEnroe and Lendl, the two top
seeds on the men’s side, had little
trouble with unseeded opponents
and neither did Lloyd, co-No. 1 with
Martina Navratilova in the women’s
draw.
But seventh-seeded Joakim Nys-
Jrom of Sweden and No. 11 Yannick
| Noah of France, both lost their
matches. Nystrom lost to 17-year-old
West German “wunderkind” Boris
Becker in a stirring five-set match.
“This match was definitely one for
my confidence,” said the 17-year-old
German, who twice had to break
Nystrom’s serve to stay in the match
before coming through 3-6, 7-6, 6-1,
4-6, 9-7 in three hours, 20 minutes.
Two seeds also fell in women’s sin
gles as the grass court tournament at
the All England Lawn Tennis and
Croquet Club began its second week
with tennis rather than inclement
weather the main concern.
Australia’s Elizabeth Smylie
shocked third-seeded Hana Mandli-
kova of Czechoslovakia 6-1, 7-6, and
Pascale Paradis of France upset No.
14 Wendy Turnbull of Australia 2-6,
7-5, 6-1. That left only two seeds in
the same half of the draw with
Lloyd, who beat Australian’s Jenny
Byrne, 6-2, 6-1.
Only seven seeds remain in the
men’s draw.
Becker, given a good chance of
winning this prestigious tourna
ment, ousted Nystrom 3-6, 7-6, 6-1,
4-6, 9-7, and veteran Vijay Amritraj
of India, in his 14th Wimbledon,
eliminated Noah 4-6, 7 : 6, 6-3, 7-6.
McEnroe got by qualifier Christo
Steyn of South Africa 6-3, 7-5, 6-4,
while Lendl finally found his game
in the final two sets as he stopped
Shlomo Glickstein of Israel 7-6, 4-6,
6-3, 6-2.
Also advancing into the fourth
round were fifth-seeded Anders Jar-
ryd and No. 14 Stefan Edberg of
Sweden, qualifier Ricardo Acuna of
Chile, Danie Visser of South Africa,
Switzerland’s Heinz Gunthardt,
Henri Leconte of France and two
Americans, Sammy Giammalva and
Robert Seguso.
Women moving on were fifth-
seeded Pam Shriver of the United
States, who ended the hopes of vet
eran Virginia Wade of Britain, 6-2,
5-7, 6-2; No. 4 Manuela Maleeva of
Bulgaria, No. 11 Steffi Graf of West
Germany, Britain’s Jo Durie and
four Americans: No. 16 Kathy Ri
naldi, Anne Smith, Barbara Potter
and qualifier Molly Van Nostrand.
