Juror: Terps appear clean ,f 0 < ts of drug use byaifl-. as the poor academiiiy 50^ e of some membersofL’al" UPPER MARLBORO, Md. (AP) — A member of the grand jury that investigated the death of Maryland basketball All-American Len Bias said Monday that “the team as a whole looks pretty clean.” The juror, who asked not to be identified, said that “a lot of this stuff’ about drug use by university athletes has been blown out of pro portion. The comments came after the grand jury spent the entire day lis tening to testimony from six of Bias’ teammates. Jim Spiro, the team manager, was apparently the only other witness to show up as the grand jury resumed deliberations two weeks after it in dicted three of the people who were with Bias when he died of cocaine in toxication in his dormitory room on June 19. Bias’ death came just two days after he was selected by the Boston Celtics as the second player in the NBA draft.

I don’t know.” Foster, who Cashen said requested Monday’s press conference to tell his side of the story, said he had been aware since spring training that the Mets were considering a move to remove him from the roster. But Foster claimed he was shoved out of the Mets clubhouse after the story which quoted him as saying Manager Davey Johnson chose his start ing players on the basis of color, that he was benched because he is black, and that the Mets promote white players over black ones. Foster has denied saying those things, pointing out that Kevin Mitchell, who replaced him in left field, is black. “Everything started to snowball with that story,” Foster said. “It was the straw that broke the camel’s back.” Foster signed a five-year, $10 million contract with the Mets in 1982 after they acquired him from the Cincinnati Reds. But he was batting only .227 with 13 homers and 38 RBI and had lost his starting left field job to Mitchell, who has been hitting over .300. Since July 1 1, Foster was 2-for-28 with 10 strikeouts. Foster, who has categorically denied he called the Mets racists, again said he did not make many of the statements attributed to him and that oth ers were taken out of context. »rsecuti< Strawberry, a Dwight Gooden or a Gwmyj t y, e S( ter - .

Ryan returns to Astros after 2nd stint on DL HOUSTON (AP) — Veteran pitcher Nolan Ryan of the Houston Astros comes off the disabled list for the second time this season today and will test his ailing right elbow against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Ryan has been troubled all season by a sprained ligament. The Astros placed Ryan on the team’s 15-day disabled list effective July 28 because of the recurring problems. Ryan also was sidelined 21 days in June with the same injury. Ryan was examined by Dr. Frank Jobe, the Dodgers’ team physician, last week in Los Angeles. He said he would need about a year to recover from surgery, but added that he did not think an operation was necessary now. He will take a 7-7 record and a 3.90 earned-run average into the im portant home stand against the Dodgers, who are trying to overtake the first-place Astros in the tight Na tional League West. Ryan struggled early in the season but despite the elbow pain, pitched his best games after coming off the disabled list in June 24. Since then, he has compiled a 4-1 record and struck out 14 over 9 1-3 innings against the Montreal Expos on July 22. In his next start on July 27, Ryan struck out 10 batters over five in nings against Philadelphia before leaving the game with elbow pain. He then was placed on the disabled list against his wishes. Although Ryan wanted to pitch against the Dodgers in Los Angeles on Aug. 1, Houston Manager Hal Lanier said he wanted to rest Ryan and have him in shape for the final two months of the season. -— Major League Baseba |ind, the larged v da’s im: lie refu the na they b below brougl oking c ey said ■toorlv ago. fie Sri AMERICAN LEAGUE NATIONAL LEAGUE East Division East Division W L Pet.

The final round was played Mon day as heavy rains deluged the area Sunday after Tway and Norman had played just one hole forcing suspen sion of play. Tway was choked with emotion as he was interviewed on television. “I can hardly talk,” Tway, who wiped tears from his eyes, said. “Right now, I’m the happiest person in the world. ... It’s something you dream of all of your life.” “I didn’t feel I played that badly. It was a struggle from the word ‘go’,” said Norman, who led after the third round of all four majors, won the British Open, finished second in both the Masters and PGA and faded to 12th in the U.S. Open. “My swing wasn’t bad. It was just one of those days,” Norman said, then added congratulations for Tway. “Bob played extremely well. He did the right things at the right time,” Norman said. And the best thing Tway did, of course, was the decisive shot from the bunker in front of the 18th green. Tway, who tied for the lead when the struggling Norman bogeyed the 14th hole after hooking his drive, was in trouble on the 18th. He drove into the right rough and hit his approach into the trap. Jack Nicklaus, commenting on television, noted: “If he had to miss it, that’s the best place to get it up and down from.” Nicklaus, the Masters champion, who was seeking a record sixth PGA title, finished well back at 285 after a 75 Monday. Norman, trying to regain the game that had put him in the lead with a course-record 65 in the open ing round, drove into the fairway, then lofted his second shot onto the green — only to see the spin back it off the putting surface into heavy rough. No one else really got in the title chase. Peter Jacobsen, playing with Nor man and Tway in the last group —“I was kind of a spectator out there,” he said — birdied the final hole for a 71. That put him third alone at 279. D.A. Weibring was nextat! ter a final-round 69.
