Statement charges players in baseball with drug buys
By United Press International
NEW YORK — Dave Parker of the Cincinnati Reds and Dale Berra of the New York Yankees were among players named as cocaine purchasers in a statement given to federal prosecutors by a defendant in a Pittsburgh case, a published report said Monday.
Both players disputed assertions made in an article in the New York Times, which also reported at least eight players, including Keith Hernandez of the New York Mets, are expected to testify next month in the Pittsburgh trial.
Seven people are charged in the case, including Curtis Strong, a Philadelphia caterer charged with cocaine distribution, who allegedly had access to the locker room of the Philies, said the Times.
According to the report, a government source familiar with the Pittsburgh case said some players interviewed by the Federal Bureau of Investigation thought "40 to 50 percent of all plays use drugs."
The Times said drug dealers or their couriers had access to baseball clubhouses in at least four cities, and conducted sales there.
As many as 20 players and one batboy from nine teams were implicated in a 1983 cocaine case at Kansas City in which four Royals were convicted and sent to prison. Defense lawyers think their defendants are becoming scapegoats for players, who are granted immunity from prosecution in return for testimony.

MONITORING FOR SMALL ROOMS
Special consideration needs to be given to loudspeakers designed for use in small rooms. And since the majority of listening environments probably fall into the 'small room' category we were clearly committed to finding precisely the right answers. The result is an eminently affordable system which fully justifies a place in the B&W range.
