R-10 Monday, Dec. 8, 1986 Green Bay Press-Gazette Death notices funerals Charlie Moore, Brewers part ways pitcher Charles Hudson. accept or reject arbitration. If they refuse, their teams must sign them by Jan. 8 or lose that right until May 1.

Among the free agents who signed one-year contracts Sunday were Rudy Law and Jamie Quirk with Kansas City, Tom Hume of Philadelphia and Iarry Herndon of Detroit. Trade rumors continue to center around Kevin McReynolds of the San Diego Padres. "I haven't heard the two names I want to hear, yet," said Padres Vice President Jack McKeon. One of the names McKeon is listening hard for is Randy Myers, a young, hard-throwing, left-handed reliever in the New York Mets' organization who is coveted by many of the major league clubs. According to the Mets, McKeon, who wants to return Myers to a starting role, will not be hearing Myers' name mentioned in any trade talk by the Mets.

There is speculation that the Montreal Expos will sign Cerone. The Brewers did not offer Cerone a contract or arbitrtation. Rumors are that California pitcher Ron Romanick, demoted to the minors in mid-season after going 5-8, may be headed to the New York Yankees in a trade for catcher Butch Wynegar. There also was speculation the Yankees might send Wynegar to Philadelphia for Associated Press and Gannett News Service Charlie Moore, the longest serving player in Milwaukee Brewers history, won't return to the club, team officials said. Moore, 33, played 13-plus seasons with the team.

In 1986, he batted .260 with three home runs and 39 UBIs in 80 games in 1986. He primarily split catching duties with Rick Cerone and Bill Schroeder. At the end of the 1986 season, the Brewers offered Moore a one-year contract plus a one-year option, and asked for a 30 percent cut of his $402,500 salary. Moore, calling the offer "disgusting and insulting," turned it down. The Brewers did not offer to go to salary arbitration with Moore.

"We stood on that offer," said General Manager Harry Dai ton. "We thought it was a sensible offer considering how much we'd use him next season. "We have three other catchers (Schroeder, B.J. Surhoff and Charlie O'Brien) that we want to play a lot, and Charlie didn't figure to play enough to earn the kind of money he wants to earn." Moore was vacationing in Tahiti and could not be reached. His agent, Ed Kleven, said Moore wasn't happy with the Brewers' offer, nor his proposed role in the 1987 season.

A 10.894 ON Associated Press The 300th victory of Pat Riley's coaching career came with a message. "Golden State is a challenger and you have to make a statement to them," Riley said. "We got stung pretty good up there and tonight we played with tremendous intensity." The leakers, apparently still smarting from a 1 1 6-1 06 loss to the Warriors last week, trounced Golden State 132-100 Sunday night, enabling Riley to reach 300 National Basketball Association victories faster than any other coach in league history. In the only other game Sunday, Portland beat New York 107-104 in overtime. Clyde Drexler and Kiki Vandeweghe scored key baskets in the final minutes to lead Portland to its fourth straight victory.

Baseball notebook "They told me their plans were for Charlie to play 40 games," Kleven said. "It didn't make any sense. Charlie doesn't need to be an ornament.

I told Harry that." This year, free agents are in abundance. World Series hero Ray Knight, 300-game winner Tom Seaver, Gary Ward and Dave Kingman are among the players now available to 25 teams all but the clubs they played for in 1986. Teams had until midnight Sunday to either re-sign their free agents or offer them salary arbitration. If the clubs did neither, they lost the right to re-sign them until May 1. Others available include Lonnie Smith, Rick Dempsey and pitcher Joe Price.

Iast year, as owners tried to cut costs and seize more control of the game, teams steadfastly refused to sign free agents other than their own a pratice that resulted in a charge of collusion by the Players Association. But this year's stance, in which some clubs avoided the salary arbitration process and attempted to reduce big salaries, left clubs in the clear to pursue free agents. Free agents have until Dec. 19 to lead to 73-69 with 1:30 left to play, then made it 79-77 on Bill Harris' three-point play and two Lake Cosby free throws with 35 seconds remaining. But Guidinger, who won most valuable player honors in the tournament, sealed the Bulldogs' victory with two free throws with 11 seconds left.

Minnesota-Duluth tops NMU 81-77 MEET THE Associated Press The Philadelphia Flyers wasted no time in drawing first blood, and then delivering the knockout punch, against the Edmonton Oilers. "Getting off to a quick start was the key to the whole night," said Flyers captain Dave Poulin, who scored the first goal only 14 seconds into the game en route to a 5-2 National Hockey league victory over the Oilers Sunday night. "Anytime you score on the first shift of the game, it's like you're stealing one." Edmonton Coach Glen Sather said the Oilers knew the Flyers would be anxious to get off to a fast start after losing their last two games. "A goal 14 seconds into the game makes it a lot tougher," said Sather, who watched the Flyers build up a 4-0 lead after one period. In other games, it was Boston 3.
