L’ALPE D’HUEZ, France (AP) —
Two-time champion Greg LeMond
moved into contention Wednesday
with a strong mountain ride and sec
ond-place finish in the 11th stage of
the Tour de France.
Italian Gianni Bugno edged LeM
ond in the final sprint to take the
113-mile leg from Mont Blanc to
1’Alpe d’Huez, but LeMond’s power
ful showing moved him to third in
the overall standings.
Ronan Pensec remains the overall
leader, 1 minute, 28 seconds ahead
of Italian Claudio Chiappucci and
9:04 in front of ‘Z’ teammate LeM
ond.
The stage was marked by the
three most difficult climbs so far on
the Tour, the last of which was up
the 6,100-foot peak, 1’Alpe d’Huez.
On the final climb, LeMond,
Bugno, Pedro Delgado and Eric
Breukink led before 1988 winner
Delgado dropped into the pack with
two miles to go.
LeMond launched into the final
sprint and appeared to have it won
until Bugno came on in the final
yards.
LeMond, who hurt his wrist when
he fell at a food station earlier in the
day, had difficulty preparing for the
final sprint.
“I had trouble braking and I went
wide around the final curve,” LeM
ond said. “That may have cost me
the stage.”
LeMond was leading when he al
most went into a barrier going into
the final straightaway. Although he
stayed ahead of Bugno for the mo
ment, he lost momentum and Bugno
came on at the finish.
The injury doesn’t appear to be
serious and LeMond said he was re
ady for Thursday’s 20-mile time
trial.
Pensec, who took the overall lead
from Canadian Steve Bauer in the
10th stage, was having trouble at the
bottom of the final hill. However,
with the help of teammate Robert
Millar, he was able to get closer to
the leaders and reduced the deficit
to a handful of seconds.
They're back...
English soccer reinstated
LONDON (AP) — Its stadiums
are shabby, its fans remain rowdy
and it still can’t produce a tennis
player good enough to get past the
second round at Wimbledon.
Forget all that. England was back
on top of the sports neap Tuesday,
at least in its own provincial eyes.
Fans could fill themselves with
pride along with beer at the local
pub as, within dVa hours on a typ
ically cloudy summer day, two events
restored the nation so long asso
ciated with the downside of sport to
No. 1.
First, the European soccer feder
ation, UEFA, voted to readmit En
glish clubs into two of its three conti
nental tournaments next year.
The clubs were banned in 1985
after English fans rampaged
through a Belgian stadium, killea 39
people.
“We are back!” read the inch-high
headline on the Evening Standard,
London’s afternoon newspaper, and
fans were snapping up copies.
Soccer ana government officials
were quick to praise the move.
“We see today’s decision as the
dawning of a new era for English
football and we deeply welcome it,”
said British sports minister Colin
Moynihan.

Then, just as the country was
)d 1
drinking in that dram of good news
came a double shot: England had
won a big cricket series on home soil
for the first time in five years.
NCAA sweetens contract
Devon Malcolm, a young bowler
first mentioned as a budding super-
star during a series in the West In
dies last winter, led England to a
114-run victory over New Zealand at
Edgbaston, near Birmingham.
Malcolm is a pace bowler, the
equivalent of a fastball pitcher. His
feat of taking five of the 10 New Zea
land wickets — including bowling
newly knighted Richard Hadlee for
just 13 runs — could be compared
with a pitcher striking out 13 batters
and capping it by getting Jose Can
seco looking at a changeup on 3-
and-2.
ig Go
devisk
poration interrupted its television
news headlines in the afternoon to
announce, “England has just won
the Test with New Zealand.”
OVERLAND PARK, Kan. (AP) — The NCAA’s budget subcommittee
approved on Wednesday broad recommendations for distributing SI bil
lion from a seven-year television contract with CBS that would de-em
phasize schools playing tournament games for money.
The NCAA wifi distribute about $115 million to members during the
1990-91 budget year, said Judy Sweet, director of athletics at the Univer
sity of California-San Diego and chairwoman of the special committee that
developed the plan.
Some $70 million to $75 million will be shared among Division I mem
bers according to a distribution formula that has two parts, she said. That
compares to $36 million annually shared in the past.
Sweet said the first pool is a conference’s performance in the Division 1
men’s basketball tournament. The second is a broad-based program that
will include the institution’s sports sponsorships and the number of grants-
in-aid it provides.
Sweet and NCAA executive director Dick Schultz said the amount indi
vidual institutions will receive has not been determined. But according to
the formula, the increase in revenue institutions will get through their con
ferences will range from 58 to 200 percent.
Schultz said that according to tbe new basketball tournament pool, flat
payments for progression through the tournament will no longer be used.
Instead, the revenue from the tournament will be based on a conference’s
performance in the tournament over a six-year rolling average beginning
with the 1985-90 period. Shares will go to conferences for distribution to
institutions.

tournament is scheduled for late
July to help former Texas A&M
All-American Lee Roy Caffey,
who suffers from stomach cancer.
Caffey, who played for the
Green Bay Packers from 1964 to
1969 and was selected All-Pro in
1966, has been fighting cancer
with surgery and a four month
hospital stay, former Packer tea
mmate Donny Anderson said.
“He used to tell us in the
Packer dressing rooms that he
was tougher than any two men we
knew,” Anderson said. “Now I
believe it.”
The benefit tournament,
scheduled for July 23 at Dallas’
Royal Oaks Country Club, will
feature celebrity captains such as
Southern Methodist Athletic Di
rector Forrest Gregg and former
Packer Ray Nitchske.
A&M Athletic Director John

“We’re calling on all the old

ALVIN, Texas (AP) — You won’t
find any buildings named for this
small town’s hero. There are no bill
boards touting his celebrity, few
bumper stickers, and there’s never
been a parade in his honor. The
four-block street named after him
doesn’t even have any street signs.
Nolan Ryan, and Alvin, Texas,
wouldn’t have it any other way.
Ryan, the unassuming, aw shucks
Texas country boy who, at age 43,
throws no-hitters through back pain
and holds baseball’s all-time strike
out record, went into the All-Star
breakjust four wins short of the 300-
victory milestone.
He grew up in and still lives in Al
vin, an unassuming, aw shucks kind
of country town which now finds it
self caught between hs frontier past
and the urban sprawl of Houston, 20
miles away.
If a town can reflect a man’s per
sonality, or perhaps more accurately
a man can reflect a town’s personal
ity, then Alvin, Texas, population
close to 20,000, and Nolan Ryan are
very much alike.
It’s a town where the churches
outnumber the lawyers in the Yellow
Pages, 24-21. In gosh-golly Alvin,
City Hall is one of the few two-story
structures, many of the downtown
stores are boarded up and the Wal-
Mart out on the highway bypass
thrives.
And Alvin’s a town where the peo
ple, and the businesses, seem to al
ways be on a first-name basis.
There’s Ken’s Auto Repair,
Clem’s Paint and Body, Jerry’s Ap-

When he comes in
here, he’s just like another
person. Making a big deal
out of him might spoil that.”

Center, Robert’s Cafe, Ted’s Phillips
66, Barbara’s Hair Masters, Frank’s
Furniture and Jim’s Jewelry.
At Joe’s Bar-B-Q, run oy Ryan’s
high school chum Joe Saladino, you
won’t find a Nolan Ryan Over-The-
Plate Special on the menu, because
to folks in Alvin, Nolan’s just a
neighbor.
“I thought about putting him on
the menu, but it just wouldn’t seem
right,” Saladino said. “When he
comes in here, he’s just like another
person. He’ll sit at this table and we’ll
say, ‘Howya doing? How’s your
cows?”’
“Making a big deal out of him
might spoil that.”
Elsewhere, everyone’s making a
big deal of Nolan Ryan now. Fans
mob him at Arlington Stadium and
on the road. President Bush calls
him up for golf dates. He ducks in
and out of hotel back doors. Collec-
To Ryan, not being a big deal i:
Alvin is one of the attractions of stai
ing in his hometown. When lie'i
home, he works his ranch and fit
quents his children’s athletic con
tests, sitting in the bleachers without
being hounded for autographs.
“It’s the town I grew up in. I'm
very comfortable there. It’s certainli
not the most attractive place to livtj
but I’m comfortable there," said
Ryan, 7-4 for the Texas Rangers thii
year.
“It’s flat prairie-land. There!
nothing pretty about it. When peo
pie see it they wonder why I stayed
there. But it’s home. That’s the beJ
way to explain it,” he said.
For years Alvin has resisted pres

celebrations honoring accomplish
ments, such as this season’s record!

and other memorabilia have soared
in value the last two years. Texas Re
publicans want him to run for office.

“We’re trying to come up will

Ryan Historical Foundation.
“It’s not that we don’t love and re
