Round
NEW YORK (A') - Gary 3eban,
honored as Heisman Trophy win-
ner and outstanding collegian of
the year, was bypassed until the
30th pick yesterday in the pro
draft as the American and Nation-

Interior linemen and defensive
players.
The honor of being number
one in the pro selections went to
Ron Yary, the 6'5", 261-pound of-
fensivetackle of Southern Califor-
nia's national champions. Five
Trojans were taken among the
27 picked in the first round.
Beban, the running quarterback
who directed UCLA to 23 victories
against five defeats and two ties
in three years, finally was taken
by the Los Angeles Rams high

sentenced to two years on a forgery
charg last October. He will be elig-

Special To The Daily
JACKSON STATE PRISON -
Jesse Phillips, the fast-moving
tackle for Jackson's Convicts, was
the fourth round draft choice of
Paul Brown's new Cincinnati en-
try in the NFL last night.
Big Daddy Bestonlandandsea,
prison warden and team coach,
admitted that a soft-walking
man with a big stick had posted
$33,333 bond for Jesse earlier in
the day.
"We're sure going to miss that
guy," Big Daddy said. "There
wasn't much that he couldn't do
or hadn't done.
"We had no idea he wasn't
happy hereWe all had such great
fun last time at simulation day.
"We invented a country where
everyone could grow up decently,
have a good home and raise kids.
SWe'dread about it in some his-
tory book one of Jesse's friends
from Michigan State had sent
over.
"Some of the guys didn't play
along because they thought they
were too old for fairy tales. But
it's good therapy. We try to keep
in touch with all the latest gim-
micks. It perpetuates the sys-
tem, you know.
"I never though he'd take it
seriously."

Bengals on Johnson, called the
hinge of the Vols' fine offensive
line.
First Back
Larry Csonka of Syracuse, call-
ed by Coach Ben Schwartzwalder
the most valuable back he ever
had, was the first back to be pick-
ed as number eight grabbed in
the draft by the Miami Dolphins.
The first quarterback taken was
Greg Landry, the 6'3", 190-pound-
er from -Massachusetts who was
picked by the Detroit Lions.
Landry's college coach, Vic
Fusia, said, "I am sure he will be
a regular within three years." The
Lions have had quarterback prob-

Green Bay, as usual, had an
extra helping of the goodies. They
acquire New Orleans' first-round
pick as compensation when Jim
Taylor played out his option and
signed with the Saints.
Carr Taken
The Packers took Fred Carr, the
highly-rated 6'4", 227-pound line-
backer from Texas-El Paso, rank-
ed by many as the best prospect in
the nation. He may wind up at
strong side safety in the Packer
scheme of- things because the
champs are knee deep in line-
backers with Ray Nitschke, Dave
Robinson, LeeRoy Caffey, Tommy
Crutcher and Jim Flanigan.
For their second first-round
pick, Green Bay took Bill Lueck,
an Arizona guard who was an
all-star in the Western Athletic,
Conference.
