The shouting and tumult that followed the Dodgers' final-game triumph over the proud New York Yankees had died today but It didn't take much prompting to send a Flatbush Ian off on the clutch pitching of Johnny Podres, the great catch of Sandy Amoros in the seventh game, the slugging of Duke Snider or the spirited play el Pee Wee Reese and Jackie Robinson. Meantime, the Brooklyn players scattered to all sections of the country to await their World Series checks. The Yankees packed their bags for an exhibition tour of the Far East starting Saturday. FINAL FKiURKK The final figures on the payoff fo the Dlavers were expected to-; day. But it was estimated each of the 32 full Dodger shares would be worth about $9,684 and each of the 36 losing Yankee shares $5,739. The money comes out of the players' pool from the first four cames, amounting to S6M.853.59. Thirty per cent of the pool goes to players on the teams finishing second, third and lourtn in eacn league. The Dodgers get 60 per cent of the remaining 70 per cent and the Yankees 40 The seven-day series attracted 362,310 fans and record net re ceipts of 12,337.515.34. The players receive an estimated $83,000 as their share of the $100,000 receipts from the pregame television show T.hlle $1,125,000 from the actual broadcasting and televising of the games goes into the majors' cen tral fund to help support the players' pension fund. For some of the Dodgers there v. Ill be very little letup from base ball. Don Newcombe, the team's 20-game winner who failed In the first game, will Join the Giants' Willie Mays In heading an exhi bition tour of major league players.

In what might be termed the openit g of the Hot Stove League, Casey gave the reasons for some of his moves in his losing 7th World Series game the game that save the Brooklyn Dodgers their first world championship 2-0. It was hours after the game and Casey, in a relaxed mood, chat ted with reporters at Yankee press headquarters. Casey reiterated his praise of Ihe Dodgers. "We got beat, that's all," he seid. "That guy (Johnny Podres who blanked the Yanks 2-0 1 was sure putting Juice on the oau at me end. ' He meant Podres was throwing it last oau, "Say, Case," someone asked, "Was Berra on his own on that TIME OUT 'Ore, small world, isn't It? I was born In Peoria, Illinois, too!"

The Yanks had men on first and thud with one out and with the 3-0 count on Yogi Berra, had a bit? threat going. Casey went on: "We need the long ball, but if my man walks we have the bases loaded and a single ties the score. If that guy eets the ball over (os he did for 3-0) Campnella (Brooklyn catch er) don't dare to call for a pitch out and I can have my men run nine." Berra, Yankee catcher and their leading hitter of the series, swun? at the next pitch and flied to Carl Furillo In short riant field. A rifle throw to home kept Phil Rizzuto on third base. Hank Bauer then fanned to end the last Yanks' threat of the game. How about the 6th when the Yankees had men on first and second with none out and Berra again at bat? "Some folks think I should have had Berra sacrifice, but we didn't go for a tie. We wanted to win. Then he hits to the opposite field and from the dugout I never thought that guy would catch the ball." He referred to Sandy Amaros' sensational glove-handed catch of Berra's fly near the left field foul line that led to an equally sur prisingly doubleplay when Gil Mc Dougald couldn't get back to first in time. "Suppose I had Berra bunt and it's a double play or they get the guy at third." Case said. "What would they call me then, hey?" Stengel winked his eye. as if to indicate he knew all right.
