From the viewpoint of some who want to make him President, Colin L. Powell is playing his cards too close to his vest. Either he gives a hint of interest soon, one of his main backers said last week, or people at the grass roots will dismiss him as "too coy." From his own perspective, his friends say, General Powell has no option except to allow the political drama to unfold. One of them put it this way: "Suppose, just suppose, he wants the job. He has nothing to gain by running after it months ahead of time. That makes him look like everyone else."

The shares of the Louisiana-Pacific Corporation fell 14 percent yesterday after the company said Wednesday that it expected to be indicted by a Federal grand jury on charges of tampering with environmental monitoring equipment. Louisiana-Pacific stock was down $4, to $22.75. The charges would add to a string of environmental problems at the company in the last few years. Louisiana-Pacific has paid $17 million in environmental penalties in the last two years. The company first reported the grand jury investigation in documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in March 1994 and said in November that it would probably be indicted. The allegations include tampering with emissions-monitoring equipment and altering records at its Montrose, Colo., plant, according to a Federal filing by the company. The Wall Street Journal reported the contents of the filing yesterday. Company officials could not be reached for comment.

The makers of Arizona teas and juice drinks, Ferolito, Vultaggio & Sons, will not sell the company to the G. Heileman Brewing Company, Ferolito's chairman said yesterday. Speaking at a conference in Manhattan, Don Vultaggio, the chairman of the company, said that the takeover was not going to happen. Heileman is best known for Colt 45 malt liquor. The Dallas buyout firm Hicks Muse Tate & Furst bought a majority stake in the company last year. Ferolito, privately held, introduced its line of teas in 1992, when it sold 700,000 cases; sales were 20 million cases last year. People familiar with the two companies had said that talks had nearly led to a purchase estimated at more than $400 million. Mr. Vultaggio also said Arizona would introduce new drinks this summer, including a carbonated chocolate drink.
