SAN ANGELO — Veteran Houston Oilers tackle Leon Gray
failed to appear at the start of training camp and two other veter
ans were late in arriving, a team spokesman said.
The Oilers spokesman late Wednesday said defensive backs
Vernon Perry and Greg Stemrick failed to show up before the 6
p.m. deadline set for the arrival of team veterans at Angelo State
University but both called officials to say they would arrive late.
Late Wednesday night. Perry was driving to San Angelo from
Jackson, Miss., while Stemrick was flying to camp from his home in
Cincinnati, Ohio, the spokesman said.
The spokesman said'officials were not suprised that Gray failed
to show up because he has not renewed his contract with the team.
He remains the only unsigned veteran.
' Oilers General Manager Ladd Herzeg said he last heard from
Gray Sunday.
“He was supposed to call me back Sunday night, but he didn’t. I
haven’t heard anything,” Herzeg said. He said Gray had not told
anyone he would show up.
The 30-year-old old pro is known to be asking for a salary
increase of more than 100 percent. The Oilers have offered him
two contracts, one a one-year deal and the other for several sea
sons.
“Our offers are on the table,” Herzeg said. “We think we’ve
made a fair proposal. But we can’t officially do any negotiating so
we’re waiting to see if they’ll accept one of our offers.”

HOUSTON —- Houston man
ager Bill Virdon, who earlier
this year blamed a slump by his
Astros on poor pitching, now is
singing the praises of his starting
rotation.
The Astros, behind the com
plete-game pitching of Joe Niek
ro, beat the Cincinnati Reds 4-2
Wednesday. The win came a day
after Nolan Ryan won his 200th
career game with a 13-strikeout,
3-2 win over the Reds.
“When you get good-pitched
games you’ve got a much better
chance to win,” Virdon said.
Art Howe’s two-out, two-run
double in the sixth gave the
Astros a 3-2 lead. Houston
added an insurance run in the
seventh on an RBI single by Jose
Cruz, who collected three hits in
the game.
“We’re happy to get two in a
row,” Niekro said. “I was glad to
get the two-run lead. In this ball
park it’s so much more secure
than one.”
The win pushed Niekro’s re
cord to 10-7. The effort was his
eighth complete game in his last
12 starts.
“I had a pretty good knuckler.
but it was hard to spot it,” Niekro
said. “I went more with the fast
ball and slider once I got the
lead.”
The Reds scored a run in the
first when Eddie Milner reached
on a bunt single, moved to
second on a single by Cesar
Cedeno and scored on a single
by Johnny Bench.
Houston tied it 1-1 in the
fourth on back-to-back doubles
by Cruz and Danny Heep.
Cincinnati scored in the fifth

OAKVILLE, Ontario — The
last time Jack Nicklaus played
the Glen Abbey golf course, site
of the Canadian Open, his ver
bal criticism stung his hosts as
much as his driver and putter
stung his PGA rivals.
The 7,060-yard, par-71
course was hit by a fungus infec-

tion that had partially destroyed
some of the greens last year.
Nicklaus, who designed Glen
Abbey and takes pride in its con
dition, then came along and
finished the job.
“The course stinks,” he said.
In the tournament itself,
Nicklaus made a dramatic
charge that fell one shot shy of
Peter Oosterhuis and finished in
second place. He enters this
year’s event still seeking the only
major national championship
that has eluded him.

The Golden Bear made his in
fection of the course he
larted Wednesday, during the
pro-am, and heaved a few
of relief.
“The course is as good as ii
can possibly be,” he said. "By
mid-September it will be per
fect. But considering the gras
kill from the winter and tht
spring it’s in fine shape.”
While the organizers worried
about what Nicklaus might say
about their course, they also
were trying to keep count of the
growing number of big-name
players withdrawing.
Tournament director Jim
Decks said the draw was still
above average compared to
most of the PGA stops. But the
73-year-old Canadian Open is
not used to being just above av
erage.
“We still have a very good
field, but we may have beenabit
used to having the very best,” he
said.
