(AP) — |im Booros, who had to re-qualify in the PGA Tour last fall, finished Iff a 67 with birdies on the last three loles Thursday to earn a share of pe first-round lead in the $700,()()() 'ebble Beach National Pro-Am. "I can’t believe I played the back in 30,” the 37-year-old Booros said v Mter bis effort at Pebble Bear h, one jbf three courses used for the first three rounds of this event, tied him ith Mark Calcavecchia and Jim Gal- pigber. Booros, 37, has played the PGA our off and on since 1977. He lost is Tour card three times for lack of ierformance, the last time after the 985 season, and re-qualified by fin- Ihing third in the Qualifying School imrnament in December. I Booros, the head pro at the Allen- lown, Pa. Municipal course for nine fears, struggled to a 37 over his first ine holes in two years, then got it oingover his final nine. He scored three quick birdies from 8-10 feet, then moved into a tie for the top with the birdie-birdie-bir die finish. Calcavecchia and Gallagher re corded their 67s at Cypress Point. T he door was opened for them by Australian Greg Norman, who sur rendered the lead with a double-bo- gey 5 on the 16th hole at Cypress Point. Norman, who ruled the golf world in 1986, was 7-under for the day and two in front of the field when he arrived at the tee at the windy 231-yard par-3. He had plenty of time to think about his shot, due to a logjam at the tee. “About 40, 45 minutes,” Tom Watson, who played with Norman, said of the delay on the tee. “Four or five groups were stacked up there. “We just stood around and talked to His Honor the Mayor (Clint Eastwood, mayor of nearby Carmel) and Jack (Nicklaus).” The wind off Carmel Bay switched, Watson said, just as Nor man hit his 2-iron tee shot. It ended up in deep, wiry ice plant right and short of the green. Norman’s second shot failed to move the ball out of the ice plant. He got it on the putting surface in 3, then two-putted for double bogey. He also bogeyed the 18th, backing his tee shot off the green, and fin ished his first round in American competition this year with a 68. Norman was tied with Watson, Ben Crenshaw, Craig Stadler, John Huston and Mark Brooks. Crednshaw played at Cypress Point, Brooks and Huston at Pebble Beach and Stadler at Spyglass Hill. Tom Kite, a former winner of this tournament when it was known as the Bing Crosby Pro-Am, led a large group at 69. C§) ^ Valentine V “UNDER THE MOOSE" ; » Personals .

Bass, who could be eligible for See agency at the end of the coming Bason, has requested a salary of f $930,000 for 1988. The Astros have countered with a ilary offer of $730,000. Astros General Manager Bill SVood and Bass’ agent have been ne gotiating a multiyear contract. Bass, a 1986 All-Star, hit .284 last jeason and was second, behind first baseman Glenn Davis with 19 home funs and 85 RBI. He also has 21 steals. An arbitration hearing is set for Feb. 15 in New York if an agreement is not reached by then. The club and Pankovits avoided rbitration by agreeing to terms Wednesday. Pankovits, who was seeking $150,000 for the 1988 season, agreed to a split contract, in which he will be paid $150,000 if he re mains with the Astros and $75,000 if he plays with the minor leagues. Wood said. The Astros had submitted a coun ter offer to Pankovits of $135,000. He earned $100,000 in 1987, when he hatted .230 in only 61 major- league at bats with one home run. Meanwhile, former shortstop Dickie Thon remains in litigation with the Astros. He was placed on the disqualified list in June when he left the club be cause of vision problems that had been reoccurring since he was hit in the left temple in 1984. Thon has filed a grievance with the Astros for payment on part of the balance of his contract for 1987, which the Astros ceased to pay after Thon left the team. Thon said recently he is hoping to get back to the major leagues. “I have not talked to any teams, but I’ve heard rumors and I want to go to spring training if my eyes are well,” Thon said. “Physically, I feel great. I don’t know if my eyes are well. We’ll just have to wait and see.” The Astros are waiting to see what happens with the grievance, Wood said, before taking action. The club also announced Wednesday that they have invited nine players to their spring training in Kissimmee, Fla. They include pitchers Dave Meads, Rafael Montalvo and Luis DeLeon; catchers Robbie Wine, Troy Afenir and Craig Biggio; in- fielders Glenn Carpenter and Pat Keedy; and outfielder Jim Weaver. Pitchers and catchers are sched uled to report to camp Feb. 18 with the rest of the squad reporting Feb. 23. ^C^^MEXICAN *5 FIESTA 95 ^ <5PM-9PM> Enchiladas, (tlctf.
