It had been widely assumed that Csonka, who was lured from the Dolphins with a $3.5 million, three-year contract, would return to Miami after the trio was declared free agents by John Bassett, their most recent-employer at Memphis of the defunct WFL. Warfield is already all set with the Browns, according to an informed source the Tribune quoted. Csonka is the key to the proposed deal with Kiick, also a running back, essentially a high-priced throw-in, said the story by Cooper Rollow, Tribune sports editor. Csonka's current asking price is $1 million for a four-year contract, the Tribune said.

I wouldnt bet on Csonka going back to the Dolphins, Csonkas agent, Ed Keating, was quoted. The only reason he has mentioned Miami strongly is because of his fondness for (coach) Don Shula. But there is some question as to Shulas future in Miami so why would he want to go there? "If I had my way, all things being equal, Id say he should play in Cleveland Id like to see him in a Browns uniform, following the tradition of great Syracuse fullbacks winding up on on the Browns. But the decision is up to Larry. Keating said he had talked to several teams who are interested in Csonka, including both New York clubs, Baltimore, Washington and Denver.

From Page A-ll replace Joiner. Mclnally, a rookie last season, did not play after breaking a leg in the College All-Star Game. Joiner was not a burner," said Brown.

But he was a good move man. We needed more up front defensively, and the Chargers wanted an excellent receiver. We think were protected with Mclnally whos also a burner with good hands. We think he will help us, Brown said. Joiner, 28, has 164 career receptions in his seven-year career, including 18 touchdown catches.

Joiner said one of the reasons hes happy to be coming to San Diego is his eagerness to be reunited with Bill Walsh, the Chargers new offensive coordinator. Walsh is happy to see Joiner in the fold. Hes a true, polished pro who has excellent football sense and instincts and is one of the best all-around receivers in football, Walsh said. I would rank him in the top 10 American Conference receivers. Douglass, 6 feet 3, 222 pounds, played six years for the Chicago Bears before being traded to San Diego last year.

In his six years at Chicago, Douglass played in 58 games, completing 368 of 875 passes for a 42.1 percentage. He gained 4,845 yards, connected on 30 touchdown passes and ran for 19 more. In 1972, he set a league record for the most yards rushing by a quarterback in a single season, 968. With the Chargers, he threw 27 passes, completing seven for 53 yards with one interception. A native of Manhattan, Douglass played college ball at the University of Kansas.

Middleton, 6-2, 228, was the Saints first-round draft choice in 1974. In two seasons with the Saints, he never missed a game. Last season, he started all 14 games and was credited with 49 unassisted tackles and 30 assists. He intercepted one pass, sacked the opposing quarterback once and broke up three passes. He played college ball at Ohio State.

4 American fighter near 4 death after knockout A cursory study by Davey Lopes, the leading base stealer in the major leagues last year, reveals the growing use of at least three defensive measures by pitchers to try to stamp out crime between first and second. Burglary between second and third also is a problem, but the smart pitcher, putting things in logical order, takes the position that a guy cant steal third until he gets to second. AS you doubtless know, the cerebral trust of baseball has amassed positive evidence that a team must run today, or yield a large edge to the enemy. The reason for running is obvious pitching has become so proficient that a club waiting for an abudance of hits is going to be left with breakfast food on its countenance. So expedience dictates the base theft for that extra percentage that wins baseball games.

Second baseman for the Los Angeles Dodgers, Lopes stole 77 bases last year. During one glorious period, stretching from June through August, he was successful 38 times in a row, the longest streak ever put together in major league baseball. Naturally, when pitchers are humiliated by such bandits as Lopes, Lou Brock, Joe Morgan, Mickey Rivers and Rod Carew, they are going to take measures to clean up the base paths. And, in the process, they arent always going to recite to the felons their constitutional rights. I have noticed that a lot of pitchers have resorted to psychological warfare, says Lopes.

From a set position, they will hold the ball for a long, long time, trying to make the runner tense up. Those watching, of course, tense up, too. So much, in fact, that they will stroll to the washroom while the pitcher is holding the runner at first, and they will return with no change in the count. In contrast, continues Lopes, you also see a lot of quick pitching. The idea is to keep the runner off balance after conditioning him to long waits.

Then Davey has seen increased use by pitchers of what is known as the bent knee, or knee fake. This is accomplished by cocking the knee, as if throwing to the plate, and then whirling and throwing to first. It doesnt happen to be legal, as Mr. Luis Tiant discovered in the last World Series, but illegality isnt always a deterrent in baseball. With Joe Morgan on first, Tiant, you may recall, engaged him in a long battle of nerves before Luis was nailed by the umpire for a knee fake.

Bilingual, the Cuban artist for Haynie PALM SPRINGS, Calif. (UPI) All I thought was, wow, $5,000, Sandra Haynie exclaimed. I remember when they didnt win that for a whole season. Thats the amount the veteran from Texas won Thursday for a hole-in-one in the first round of the $200,000 Winners Circle LPGA tournament. The lady golf pros are playing for a record $2.5 million this season and the fifth annual Colgate-sponsored here the Big Apple of the tour will be joined by two other $200,000 events this year.

A $200,000 tournament has been scheduled at the Calabasas Park Country Club in northwestern Los Angeles County Sept. 23-26, and a $200,000 mixed match tentatively is scheduled for the week of Dec. 6 at an undetermined site. As the commercial goes, Youve come a long way, baby. Despite her ace with a three-iron on the 165-yard eighth hole, Haynie managed to shoot only a two-over-par 74 in her first round Thursday.

Kathy McMullen and Susie Maxwell Beming shot 68s to tie for the lead. McMullen, winless in seven LPGA seasons, carded a 33-35 over the Mission Hills Country Club course aqd Beming, the tours top rookie a dozen years ago who won just $2,008 in 1975, shot 36-32. One shot back were Jane Blalock, the 1972 Winners Circle champ, and. Australias Jan Stephenson, the 1974 LPGA rookie of the year. McMullen, who earned $39,555 to rank fifth in money on the tour last year, carded six birdies while Beming had five.

I just love this course, McMullen gushed. It's my kind of course. Its tight and its demanding. Thee was a six-way deadlock for fifth place at 70 that included Kathy Whitworth, pro golfs all-time leading moneywinner, who already this year has notched her 76th career victory. Palmer, the defending champion, had her problems, struggling in with a 76 after a front nine of 40.

2 City, however, came up with four runs in the 11th off Palomar relief ace Stan Sutton, the key blow a two-run triple by Steve Agosto.

Brain surgeons operated on Wilburn for four hours early today and said afterwards the 22-year-boxer from Cleveland was a deep coma and close to death. Wilburn was stopped by Thompson, a contender for the world junior welterweight title, 45 seconds before the end of the 10th and final round of the bout which he was part of the regular DAVEY LOPES protested in two languages, then raised his head and protested to God in Spanish.

But knee fakes and other forms of balks rarely are called in baseball, giving pitchers, in the judgment of Davey Lopes, a distinct advantage over runners when the two sides are matched. In his record-breaking streak of 38 in a row, Lopes stole second 29 times and third only 9. He doesnt actually have a preference, explaining that stealing third has a surprise element that isnt present when one departs for second. It is pointed out by Lopes, who is very good at arithmetic, that the. throw from home to third is only 90 feet and one from home to second is 127 feet 3 inches.

In the eight years Davey has played professional baseball, he has attempted to steal home but once. He tried it in his first year, at Daytona Beach, and he was successful. But rather than delude himself into thinking that he had unlocked the mystery of this difficult undertaking, he concluded that stealing home was a science too inexact for his taste. Most other runners have reached the same conclusion, says Lopes. You rarely, if ever, will see Brock try for home.

And you rarely will see Morgan. The only one around today who has been good at it has been Carew. Stealing home requires a frame of mind that I dont have. Nor did Maury Wills, one of the most distinguished burglars in baseball, have the attitude required to steal home. He admitted it candidly, explaining that he never conquered his fear of failing.

He never recovered fully from a horrendous experience, either. Wills attempted to steal home one day with Frank Howard at bat. Unaware of the plot, Howard took a mighty swing and hit a foul. The cut and the bat loomed so big as Maury raced for the plate that he suffered an unspeakable trauma.
