Dodgers Win
Companella-Robinson lead
way to National victory
V -------
Dodgers take their
first game of
Series today
iby Jack Hand
BROOKLYN i/P) Sturdy John 1
ny Podres celebrated his 23rd
birthday today by mixing his
lefthanded fast hall with a teas,
ling change of pace to give |
Brooklyn its first victory over
the 'New York Yankees 8-3 in
the third game of the World
Series at Ebfoets Field.
Roy Camipanella, given up for
dead with the other Dodgers
■after going hitless in two los
ing games at Yankee Stadium,
awoke from his slump with a
two run homer, double and sin
gle to drive in three runs. This
devastating show made the 34
209 almost forget his costly er
ror that let the Yanks tie the
score in the second inning.
The Brooks chased fire hall
ing Bob Turley when he turn
ed wild in the second and con
tinned to bump Tom Morgan,
Johnny Kucks and Tom Sturdi
vant for a total of 11 hits.
Manager Walter Alston, crit
ieized for going too far with
Billy Loes in yesterday’s ‘game
stuck with the youngster from
Withebbee, N. Y through thick
and thin. Three times he strode
to the mound to talk things
over with Podres and Campy
only to let the pitcher continue
Each time his faith was just if
ied.
This was a different Brook
lyn team from the (bedraggled
Dodgers who were mystified
by Tommy Byrne’s left slants
yesterday. They fought back
smartly after the Yanks tied
and never yielded the lead af
ter they chased Turley in the
second.
Jackie Robinson played mag
nifleant ball at third base for
the Dodgers, contributing sev
en assists, only two short of the
record for third basemen. Jack
ie drew a gasp from the fans
when he doubled to the left
field corner and sailed on to
third when Elston Howard
threw to second base, trying to
nip him off the bag.
Stengel surprised the cus
tomers — and the Dodgers —
by starting Mantle in center
field, with Hank Bauer redue
ed to pinch bitting duties be
cause of a leg injury, Stengel
was desperate for more right
handed power in the lineup a
gainst a southpaw pitcher.
It looked like a typical “tre
mendous” rxfove by Old Case
when Mickey hit a 'home run
over the 393 foot mark into the
center field bleachers on his
first time up in the second in
ning. But it was Obvious he was
having trouble in the field
when had had to make a one
handed catch of Gilliaim’s easy j
fly ball in right center in the
first. j
Mantle switched to right in
the second and had no more
defensive problems. But his in
ability to run hurt the Yanks
dearly in the sixth.

Urges fisheries
control he turned
over to Alaska
JUNEAU UP) The director of
the Alaska Dapt. of Fisheries
urged yesterday ■ that control
of Alaska fisheries he turned
over to the territory.
C. L. Anderson testified at
concluding sessions Ihere of an
on-the-spot study of Alaska
development Ibednfg conducted
by tlhe house subcommittee on
territorial and insular affairs.
Anderson told the congress
men he feels responsibility for
the depletion of Alaskan sal
mon runs lies squarely with the
federal government.
“It is notable that the drop
in salmon runs has occurred
here despite the fact that Al
aska has not yet been su'ject
ed to the inroads of civiliza
tion,” Anderson said. “Alaska
is practically in a primeval
state. The building of dams,
deforestation and pollution —
all deterrents to flourishing
salmon runs — have not been
a (problem m Alaska. Yet the
runs have steadily declined.”
The fisheries director said
control of Alaska fisheries once
was (provided in the original
organic tact, which was amend
ed later to place control with
the Fish and Wildlife Service,
a federal agency.

Chamber president Edwin
Reed presided, introducing the
visitors as well as members of

j were in charge of arrange
i rnents for the evening.
Rep. Hayworth spoke first.
\ He opened his talk on a humor
j ous note, sayinlg he had never

t ka. Tnen he outlined some oif

area of legislative activity in.
the house. He went on to say a!
large part of government is

, commissions.
! “The reason we are here is,
first of all, because we have,
legislation coming up or efforts

| Hayworth explained. “Although i
| you have lots of newsprint
! possibilities, you are finding ,

fabrics and plastics of differ

to the Japanese-planned pulp

In a few days, he went on,
the committee would be in

to call upon the Japanese in
dustrialists who head-up the
Alaska Lumber & Pulp Co.
“Some people in Washington
are suspicious of a foreign in

by Japanese,” he pointed out.
“I do not share that feeling. I
