We have some film of your performance that day.... we?╟╓d like you to see it while sports commentator Chuck Benedict recounts some of the highlights of your career. ZOOM IN ON SAMMY ROLL VTR AND AUDIENCE FILM CU SAMMY LEE MS GROUP CUT TO SEE SAMMY AND CLINT EXIT VIDEO TAPE: SOT - RUNNING TIME :25 (APPLAUSE) (NOTE: The film was shot by Sammy's wife, Roz) LINKLETTER: Unlike other sports events there's no precise way to measure a divers performance.....it's all a matter of artistic judgement. Do you think that's ever cost you points? (some..but I always tried to overcome it by playing up the fact that I was a member of a minority group) Congratulations, Sammy!
