Two Eagles Arrested On Drug Violations

Philadelphia Eagles running backs Mike Hogan and Jim Betterson were among eight arrested on cocaine related drug charges. The Camden County prosecutor said a narcotics strike force conducted two months of investigations extending into Philadelphia and New Jersey. Bail was set at 10,000 dollars for most, 15,000 for Thomas Campbell, and the arrests involved police from Philadelphia and Audubon Cherry Hill and Gloucester. Hogan, a key blocker and rusher, helped the Eagles to a 9 7 record last season before a playoff loss to Atlanta. Betterson filled in during injuries and joined the Eagles as a free agent in 1977 following a Denver Broncos draft in 1976.
