Clutch hitting of Gil Hodges aids in victory
VOLUME XVI

NEW YORK (P) The Brook lyn Dodgers finally won their first World Championship to- day by whipping the New York Yankees 20, in the deciding game of the classic behind the iron-nerved pitching of young Johnny Podres and the clutch hitting of Gil Hodges.
 Hodges drove in runs in the fourth and sixth innings while the 23-year-old Podres. pitch ing out of one hole after ano- ther, came through rnagnifi- ciently in the clutch to win his second game of the series with an eight hitter.
 A spectacular enchanted catch by Sandy Amores in the sixth inning with two Yanks on base and none out was ano- ther decisive factor.
 Thus the Dodgers captured their first championship on their eighth attempt and their sixth try against the Yankees. It was the Yankees first defeat in the series since 1922 when the St. Louis Cardinals accom- plished the feat. It also was the first series loss for Casey Setn- gel ince he took over the Yan- kee helm in 1949 and won five straight world series and six pennants.

WASHINGTON (P1 Secre- tary of state Dulles said today he has told Soviet foreign min ister Molotov that communist bloc arms deliveries to the Mid East would not contribute to relaxing tensions" in the world
 Dulles said when he was re- gently at the United Nations general assembly meeting in New York he discussed the Middle East problem twice with Molotov.
 He said he spoke to Molotov to the effect that from the standpoint of U. s. relations with the Soviet Union, such delivery of arms would not contribute to relaxing ten sions."
 Red Czechoslovakia has con- tracted to sell military equip ment to Egypt in return for cotton, rice and other Egyptian products.
 Dulles told his. news confer ence he thought Egypt and Czechoslovakia had not yet completed details of the deal. He said he does not know how much of what types of equip ment are involved. Therefore, he said, he does not yet know what the effect would be in starting a Middl East arms race

 India was one of the 28 countries which voted over French opposition last Friday to inscribe the Algerian prob lem on the assemIbly's agenda. and thus provoked the French Walkout.

Podres keeps Yunks awuy from home pIute, wins 20

The Dodgers also became the first team ever to drop the first two games and then rally to win the series in seven gafes
 The Dodgersstruck first ag- ainst lefty Tommy Byrne, who had whipped them in the End game with a five-hitter, in the fourth inning. Roy Campanella the heavy-hitting Dodger cat cher who had been hitless in F previous trips to the plate at the stadium, doubled to left. Campy went to third on Carl F'urillo's roller to short and came charging home on Hod- ges' line single to left.
 In the sixth, the Dodgers loaded the sacks on Byrne. who then was replaced by Bob Grim a Brooklyn resident. Hodges flied deep to Bob Cerv in cen ter and Pee Wee Reese scam pered hom from third.
 That was it, although the Tanks threatened constantly as tension mounted and pulses pounded in the super-charged atmosphere.
 Tn their half of the sixth, es- pecially, it looked like the Tanks were going to break the spell of the cool lefthander from Witherbee, N. Y.
 Billy Martin walked on four pitches and Glenn LaIbine, ace of the Dodger bull pen corps. started to warm up. Gil McDou gald laid down a lbunt inside the third base line and beat it out for a hit.
 Dangerous Yogi Berra, who safely hit in every game Of the classic, then smashed the ball to left. Sandy Amoros, who had just gotten into the game in left field, raced to the left field corner and made a sensa- tional glove-handed catch that brought a tremendous roar from the 62, ,465 thrilled fans.
 Without Ia wasted motion, Sandy tossed the ball to Reese who relayed it to Hodges to double up McDougald and break the back of the Tanks threat.
