10—The Daily Collegian Tuesday, June 24j-1986 Bias's death latest problem for Driesell By DAVID GINSBURG Associated Press Writer COLLEGE PARK, Md. (AP) - The death of All-American Len Bias is the latest in a series of controversies and scandals that have dogged University of Maryland basketball Coach Lefty Driesell, who now must contend with a grand jury and questions about alleged drug use on the team. Driesell, 54, has not had a losing season since his first year as a college coach at Davidson in 1960. He is one of only 17 coaches to win 500 games with 10 or more years at a Division I school, and in his 17-year career at Maryland his teams have won 20 games on 11 different occasions while finishing in the Associated Press Top 20 eight times. ■; *.?/• \ . j! ' Lefty Driesell But Driesell’s tenure has been spotted by a controversy. Most re cently there has been speculation that Driesell instructed players how to respond to questions from reporters and police investigating Bias’ death. Driesell denies those rumors, but Prince George’s County, Md., State’s Attorney Arthur A. Marshall said, “If these rumors are wrong, we’ll give him a chance to talk about it (at a grand jury hearing).” Marshall said preliminary indica tions are that cocaine was in Bias’ car the morning of his death. The pros ecutor told The Associated Press this week that he will ask that Driesell, several basketball players and other students and friends answer ques- tions from a grand jury about drug sales on the school’s College Park campus. Since. Driesell took over the Maryland program in 1969 his teams have featured many players who went on to star in the NBA. But those squads also included: • Herman Veal, who was accused of forcing sexual attentions on a coed in her dormitory room. Driesell was later the subject of a review panel after it was alleged he tried to call the student to pressure her to drop the complaint. • Adrian Branch and Steve Riv ers, who were arrested and charged with possession of marijuana. • Bias, Jeff Baxter and John John son, who were suspended last season for missing curfew. • And three players, including Bias last Thursday, who have col lapsed and died of heart failure either during or after their collegiate ca reers. Owen Brown collapsed on Feb. 4, 1976, shortly after his graduation, and Chris Patton died April 1,1976 of Marfan Syndrome only weeks after completing his sophomore season. Driesell first came under fire fol lowing the Veal incident. After the woman charged Veal with the sex offense, Driesell allegedly telephoned the student three times on March 5, 1983. The woman was quoted in local newspapers as saying that Driesell told her that her “name would be dragged through the mud” if she did not drop her complaint against Veal. Driesell later claimed the calls were made to obtain information on the case, and following an investiga tion by a three-member faculty com mittee he was simply reprimanded by Chancellor John B. Slaughter. The director of Maryland’s student legal aid office complained that Drie sell should have been forced to re sign. “I’m an honorable man, I’ve got discretion,” Driesell said at the time. On Jan. 28,1984, Branch and Rivers were arrested .for possession of $lO worth of marijuana. Driesell immedi ately suspended both from the team, but reinstated them after they were found guilty of misdemeanor posses sion and sentenced to a $2OO fine, 30 hours of community service and six months probation. scoreboard major league baseball £“^'o3“ 4 Toronto 15, New York 1 Texas 5, Oakland 4 AMERICAN LEAGUE East Division W L Pet. 44 23 .657 39 30 .565 37 30 .552 35 31 .530 34 32 .515 35 35 .500 32 34 .485 West Division 38 30 .559 36 32 .529 34 34 .500 28 39 .416 .28 40 .412 28 42 .400 27 43 .386 Boston New York Baltimore Milwaukee Cleveland California Kansas City Chicago Minnesota Oakland Seattle Sunday's Games Cleveland 4, Minnesota 1 Chicago 10, Seattle 4 Milwaukee 5, Detroit 4 W. Germany takes on Cinderella role in Cup By BARRY WILNER AP Sports Writer MEXICO CITY (AP) The French heat the defending World Cup champion Italians and pre tournament favorite Brazil. Argentina knocked off South American champ Uruguay and well-re garded England. Belgium upset the Soviet Union and Spain. Only West Germany has not been impressive en route to the semifinals of the' world soccer championship. But the Germans are there, and they will meet France on tommorow at Guadalajara. The other game pits the surprising Belgians against Argenti na at Aztec Stadium in Mexico City. “We have not played up to our potential, espe cially when we attack,” said West German Coach Franz Beckenbauer. “We need more organization on attack.” The Germans tied Uruguay, edged Scotland and Bookmakers unlucky in picking World Cup MEXICO CITY (AP) - Britain’s legal bookmakers, usually a reliable barometer of sporting potential, proved less than accurate when as sessing the prospects of the 24 World Cup teams. Belgium, France and West Ger many, all of whom are only one game away from Sunday’s final, were ranked as outsiders by Ladbrokes on the eve of the tournament.

Their second-place finish in Group E got them into the second round, against Morocco. It took them 88 minutes before they scored the game’s only goal. Against Mexico in the quarterfinals, West Ger many’s offense again floundered. The Germans finally prevailed in a shootout after 120 minutes of scoreless soccer in which the Mexicans cleat-ly had the better of play. “We must get our execution together,” Becken bauer said, noting that his team has scored just four goals in five games.' Still, no one in the German camp is shivering at the prospect of facing the European champions. In the 1982 World Cup semifinals, West Germany eliminated France on penalty kicks, then lost the final to Italy. “The French are a very strong, very talented team, but I think we have a good chance,” Becken bauer said. After beating Brazil 4-3 on penalty kicks Satur- Ladbrokes rated the French,' Euro pean champions and beaten semifi nalists four years ago in Spain, at a very generous 14-1 to win the title. West Germany, two-time champion and beaten finalist in Spain, also was ranked at 14-1, presumably on the basis of its poor form in warmup matches.

Defender Patrick Battiston has his own memories of the Germans, particularly goalkeeper, Harald Schumacher. In the 1982 game, Battiston was charging in on a breakaway when Schumacher came out of the goal at full speed and crashed into Battiston with his knees and fists. Battiston was carried off on a stretcher and spent six months recovering from a broken jaw, broken teeth and vertebrae injuries. “I don’t think I will come anywhere near the German goal,” Battiston said. “I don’t plan to come closer than 40 meters. I’ll be more prudent this time. ' “I’ve paid my dues.” If West Germany beats France, it will have defender Thomas Berthold back for the finals. He was ejected from the quarterfinal win when he hit Fernando Quirarte of Mexico. FIFA could have suspended him for two matches but chose, to sideline him for just the semifinal. ll^aL 834-4743 Delivery In 30 Minutes or FREE comics, etc. peanuts HEV, MANAGER, IT'S TOO .
