A crowd of 66.455 at Yankee Stadium saw Podres shut out the Yankees for 8 13 innings before Hector Lopez doubled with one out in the ninth. Perranoski Called Manager Walt Alston prompt ly called in relief ace Ron Per ranoski, who was greeted by a single by Elston Howard, scoring a run, but then got Joe Pepitone to hit into a force play and Clele Boyer to strike out. Podres, who shut out the Yankees in the final game of the 1955 World Series to give the Dodgers their only cham pionship while in Brooklyn, did not allow a Yankee bascrunner to reach third until the ninth. He struck out four in posting the fourth series win of his career. The Dodgers jumped o f ( against first-time series starter Al Downing for two runs in the first inning and made it 3-0 in the fourth when Bill Skowron homered into the right field stands. Willie Davis' double and a triple by Tommy Davis added the fourth run in the eighth. The Dodgers were aided in the first inning by imperfect field ing plays by Pepitone and right fielder Roger Maris although neither was officially charged with an error. Wills Picked Off Maury Wills singled to open the game and was promptly picked off first. The slim little speedster slid safely into sec ond base, however, when Pepi tone's throw was high and wide to Tony Kubek. Jim Gilliam sineled and went to second Dodgers when Maris' throw from right ; reserve fund. The 19ti;! Lcgisla field held Wills at third. , ture ordered that this fund. Then came the big break of the game. W. Davis lined to right field directly at Maris. But the Yan kee rightfielder slipped twice, then fell to his knees and the drive went for a two-run double. Maris left the game with a bruised left shoulder in the third inning when he crashed into the right field fence at tempting to field the first of T. Davis' two triples. The scene shifts to Los An geles for the third game of the ,?e tne i series on Saturday witn Yankees needing four victories in five games to win their 21st series championship in 28 tries. The 1956 Yankees are the only team ever o lose the first two games of a seven-game series and then rally to win the series.

OCTOBER 3, 1963 Officials State Known as Gambling Spot PORTLAND (UPD Oregon law enforcement officials took issue today with Rep. Paul A. Fino (R-New York), who de clared the stale is a "gamblers' paradise" which contributes more than $250 million a year to crime syndicates. He must have received some misinformation," said Atty. Gen. Robert Y. Thornton. We haven't had a valid gam bling complaint in Portland for the past year, said Police Chief David Johnson. Favors Lottery Fino, who frequently points to Kennedy Defends Projects Against Waste Charges HEBER SPRINGS, Ark. (UPD President Kennedy dedicated a new federally financed $46.7 1 million dam today and detended such projects against charges that they are "boondoggles" and a waste of tax money. He pointedly asked whether it was not more wasteful to stand by and see life and property lost through floods and to leave un tapped the energies of the na tion s streams ana rivers. He said water developments ultimately pay for themselves, serve homes and farms and fac tories and produce "billion dol lar" benefits for all. Wealth Said Created These projects protect and create wealth new industries, new income, new incentives and interests," the President said in remarks prepared for dedication of the Greers Ferry dam and reservoir here. The presidential speech was the first of two in Arkansas to day. The second was scheduled this afternoon at Little kock where Kennedy's appearance had produced advance rum blings over the racial segrega tion issue. Kennedy's main em phasis there was expected lo Be on his tax cut program, how ever. Kennedy went to Arkansas primarily at the invitation of Chairman Wilbur D. Mills (D Ark.) of the House Ways and Means Committee, who piloted the administration's $11 billion tax reduction bill to House pass age last week.

Tribune Untied yreis International Deny gambling in various states, con tends a government-run nation al lottery would drive criminals out of gambling and bring more money into the U.S. treasury In making his Oregon charge Wednesday, he also accused the state of hypocrisy in assigning part of the gross income from gambling at horse and dog tracks to county fairs. He said legalized gambling had not been popular in rural Oregon "until the gambling syndicates got brainstorm." Ihey cut the hyprocrites m on the take," he said. "They bought off the rural bluenoscs by getting the state to assign a portion of its percentage of the gross to the county fairs. No Knowledge Thornton said he had "no per sonal knowledge" of any illegal gambling in Oregon and that he was convinced things were not as bad now as during the Port land vice probe in the mid 1950s. And, he said, the annual yearly illegal betting traffic at tnat time would only "amount to a small fraction of the $250 million figure." Chief Johnson said if Fino's figure was accurate "you'd be stumbling over bookies in the smaller towns." And, he added, in October of 1962 there were only tour federal wagering stamps applied for or in exis tence in Portland. All four are out of business now, he said Algerian President Demands Full Power ALGIERS (UPD - Algerian President Ahmed Ben Bella warned today that the "counter revolution" of Berber rebels against his regime is a threat "both to our national unity and the territorial integrity of our country." In a speech to his hand-picked National Assembly, he demand ed full powers to end the week- old insurrection centered in the mountainous K a b y 1 i a region about 40 miles east of Algiers. But he pledged that in using the army to put down the up rising, it would be employed only against the armed rebels and not against the civilian pop ulation. "The national people's army never will be used against the populations of Kabylia," he said. The rebellion, led by insurgent leaders Col. Mohand ou el Hadj and former Vice Premier Hocine Ait Ahmed, has been bloodless. Neither side has fired a shot. School Districts Get Responsibility CORBETT, Ore. (UPD - The state is moving in the direction of leaving to local districts more responsibility for running their schools, the chairman of the state Board of Education said Wednesday night. Eugene Fisher, Elkton, added, however, that "with control goes responsibility. And unless you accept the responsibility, some one else will, whether it be state or federal." Fisher spoke to the Multno mah County School Boards as sociation. He said the slate hoard, for example, no longer "seovls out men to measure the size ( your blackboards." The state law which directs the state board to set minimum standards for schools alsa dj- recta tt to tA;r leajlariihiD Ji"but leadership without dura tion, he said.

(UPD- A food store operated by a white man in a Negro neighborhood exploded and burned Wednesday night during an apparent arson attempt. Police held a Negro youth, picked up while being treated for burns in a hospital emergen cy room, on suspicion of arson. The explosion blew out the front of the Discount Meat Cen ter, caving in the roof and touching off flames. Firemen quickly extinguished the fire, but the store was a shambles. A crowd of about 50 Negroes gathered at the scene in north east Birmingham but remained orderly. Police officers, some carrying submachine guns, sur rounded the area. Fire officials said the store was doused with gasoline from two five-gallon cans found in the ruins, and flames from a heater caused the gasoline fumes to explode. Officers said the Negro youth, Johnny Lewis Ruffin, 20, was treated for first and second de gree burns on his left side. He told police he was burned in a warehouse fire and flagged down a motorist who took him to the University hospital. Officers said, however, they learned the youth caught a taxi in the vicin ity of the store and went home wtnre relatives drove him to the hospital. Negro leaders, meanwhile, in dicated dissatisfaction with the progress of biracial negotiations aimed at easing racial tension in this steel city. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and the Rev. Fred Shuttlesworth planned a meeting Monday to decide whe ther to resume racial demon strations. Irish Urge Against Spread of Weapons UNITED NATIONS. N.Y. (UPD Ireland called on the great powers today to follow up tne Moscow test ban treaty with a new agreement to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons to countries not now possessing them. Irish External Affairs Minis ter Frank Aiken, in a speech prepared for delivery to the General Assembly, declared: "We must at our peril use all the influence and power at the disposal of the United Nations to close the door of the nuclear club now, no matter how insist ently aspiring members may de mand admission. If we can pre vent it, there must be no fifth member."

(a U- jrff v Ik IIjvX Ail (in) RAMON MORALES Ousted in Pre-Dawn Coup Hatfield Sees Nothing Better If Bill Beaten Governor Asks Favorable Vote GRANTS PASS (UPD-Gov. Mark Hatfield said Wednesday he did not see how referral of the legislature's $60 million tax package back to the lawmakers would result in anything better. Hatfield, speaking to the Ro tary club here, said "I thought they aptly demonstrated in 141 days that they could not create a better tax bill. The governor has not said if he will call a special session of the legislature if the tax bill loses. Hatfield said he was asking for a favorable vote on the tax measure Oct. 15 because of harm the reduction would cause state services and programs. He also said the state might be getting closer to a sales tax because more people who for- I merly opposed a sales tax have told him they now think it is time for a new money source. No Consensus Opponents of the legislature's tax bill feel government has grown too expensive, but that t n e y show no clear - cut con sensus on what should be done, the governor said. Other tax front comments: State Sen. Thomas R. Ma- honcy (D-Portland) said he thought the tax bill would "go down by two to one." .Male ben. Edward Fadeley (D-Eugcne) asked Hatfield to detail where you agree and whore you disagree with the legislative tax program." He lauded Hatfield s efforts to get a yes vote for the program, but criticized the governor for "po litical washing of hands" by al lowing the measure to become law without signature. State Rep. Jack Smith (D Condon) said in Hcppner the tax package was a good bill and there would be financial troubles and cutting of all serv ices if it is rejected. Crew in Area of Whiskey Creek Fire Rogue River National forest this morning had a crew on a one-fourth acre area on Whiskey creek in the Applcgale district where a fire occurred yesterday. The fire burned in logging slash on steep and rough ter rain. The forest service was "not definitely certain" of the cause.

Heavy casualties were reported in street fighting. Some army units in the 4th and 5th military zones, central Honduras, and the civil guard were resisting the coup.
