(PIAA) ruling, until a settlement Is reached in the T.A.E.A.

strike. "We're not permitted to be on the practice field or use school equipment," a somber Magullck reported. "If there's anyone who doesn't want to see something like this happen it's the coaches. Right now we're Just in the middle of things in getting ready for our first game and it has got to set up back some," he continued. "The PIAA ruling won't permit us (the coaches) to be with the kids or hold practice or play a game until this thing Is settled, but I think we have a couple of leaders on this team who will take charge for awhile.

At least the kids can get together on their own and workout in shorts. I'm hoping they take the initiative to do so."

The victory moved Baltimore back into a first-place tie with Detroit in the American League's Eastern Division. Killebrew, who received the "Lou Gehrig Award" before the game from Phi Delta Theta fraternity for exemplifying the high standards set by the former Yankee slugger, was disappointed by the loss that overshadowed the milestone.

It was the llth homer for Grich, who came into this season with just one major league homer to his credit. "Trying to Protect Plate" Grich said, "I was only trying to protect the plate with the bases loaded. When I hit it, I thought I'd at least have a sacrifice fly but then I saw It was going and I said, 'get out of here, get out of here."

lOVa 12 23 By United Press International Time and tide waits for no even Duane Thomas. Harland Svare, the patient coach of the San Diego Chargers, waited almost a month for the moody halfback to arrive In camp and then he finally set a deadline for his arrival. Naturally, Thomas missed the deadline and he was officially suspended by the Chargers at 6 p.m. Monday. Svare said Tuesday, "He was told to report to training camp by 6 o'clock Monday.

He failed to report. He Is suspended without compensation. He will be fined $150 each day he is absent," The San Diego trade had no conditions so the Chargers Apparently, the next move is now up to there's going to be a next move. All 26 pro football teams were busy Tuesday cutting their rosters down to the current 49-man (not counting players in the College All-Star game) limit at 4 p.m. (EDT) Tuesday.

But about half of the teams won't announce their cuts until Wednesday as they wait to see If their players will clear waivers or If any deals can be made. The clubs have 24 hours until 4 p.m. Wednesday to call back any player who falls to clear waivers, simply will lose the two promising players which were traded for Thomas, if he doesn't report. And since Thomas rarely says anything In public, no one seems to know why he hasn't reported to the Charger camp. Since the clubs still can cut nine more players before they reach the 40-man regular season limit, most of the players who were announced aren't well known.

Three players with reputa- tlons, Greg Cook of Cincinnati, Eldrldge Dickey of Kansas City and seven-year veteran Dee Kelley of Philadelphia, were placed on injured waivers but that means the clubs still can activate them when they're healthy. Cook is trying to make a comeback from his shoulder problems and- has been only working out lightly.

Bucs Win 5-3 PITTSBURGH (UPI) wasn't one of the Pittsburgh Pirates' best games of the season but they managed to come out on top Just the same. In a game marred by eight errors and poor pitching, It was Willie Stargell who again balled out the Pirates Tuesday night.

hit his third homer in two days as Pittsburgh took a 5.3 victory over the San Diego Padres for the second consecutive night. Along with his 31st homer Stargell drove in another run with a sacrifice fly in the second inning to boost his runs- batted-in total to 101, best in the majors. Steve Blass, in one of his less impressive starts, managed to on 7 2-3 innings to pick up his 15th win, equalling his 1971 record. Troubled by control problems and behind batters most of the night, Blass struggled all the way. "I had good stuff but I Just couldn't find the plate with it," Blass said.

"They haven't moved home plate in 87 years so you'd think I'd know where it is by now," Blass kidded. "With the control I had tonight It's a good thing I'm not a heart surgeon." With Dave Glusti in the bull pen, Blass could afford to Joke around after the game. The Pirates' relief ace came on in the eighth to blank the Padres the rest of the way for his 20th save. The Pirates scored what proved to be their winning runs in the fourth on doubles by Manny Sangulllen and Gene Alley, an error and Vic Davalillo's single. Stargell's homer In the seventh gave the Pirates an insurance run.

Starter Mike Corkins, who went seven Innings for the Padres, was charged with his eighth loss of the year against four wins. He gave up eight hits and all five runs. "I'd have to say it wasn't one of the best games I've ever seen played," was the only comment from Pirate Manager Bill Vlrdon. But with his team leading the National League East by 10 1-2 games and showing no signs of slowing up, there's'not much Virdon could really add. The Padre series ends tonight with Bruce Kison (6-5) starting for Pittsburgh against Steve Arlin (8-17) of the Padres.
