Some do, some don't, and every
one wants to "wait and see."
A spokesman for the admin

prayer or Bible reading exists
in about IS per cent of the total

principally In the lower county

Though veterans spokesmen

Before last July, credit was

Party Units
Expected to
Add Members

Possibility of an increase
in membership of the state
central committees of the
Democratic and Republican
political parties in the coun-
ty may be given serious con-
sideration after the Novem-
ber election.
The county's pickup of four
additional seats in the House
of Delegates in the recent spe-
cial session of the General As
sembly entities the two major
political parties each to add
four brass-plated seats on their
respective state central COM
mittees.
Additions to membership
would bring from seven to 10,
the number of tOp-leveI pOliti-
cal brass to hold the reins or
use the spurs In running
county affairs. While ap.
pointments Of four additional
members il not mandatory on
present committees, Maryland
law permits committee ex-
pansion up to the number Of
representatives in Anna
polls.
Whether the committees de-
eide to increase membership,
however, will not affect the
number of votes to which they
are entitled in party affairs al
the State level, including party
conventions. The number oi
votes always is equal to the
number of Annapolis delegates
in this case IL. II the commit
tees do not appoint, the II
votes will be allotted to the
present seven members, giving
them one and four-sevenths
votes each.

the Democratic State Central
Committee, said the posi-
blIity Of expansion exists but
has not been discussed by
committee members.

chairman, was not availabls fol

state, county and bi-county

Initially, about 200 employees
will be brought out from the

say, circulation growth has
brought on overcrowded condi-

II was unOfficialIy reported
that as many as 1000 em-

Collapse Of Dodgers
Might Be AI|-Time Worst
By FRANCIS sTANN

mirable, even in defeat. After all, they did
swamp the Giants in the second game of
the playoff, 100, and were holding Al
lead going into the bottom of the final
games ninth inning.
One pitch, Ralph Branca's second Of
fering TO Bobby Thomson, wrecked the
Dodgers. 1t was a one-ln-1 900 shot which
put ThomSon's historic bat, If not Bobby
himself, in the Hall Of Fame.
Today the odds also seemed about one
in 10000 that the Dodgers, so visibly in
state of shock, could pull out this >playoff.
&&
TWO HAPPY, HARDENED survivors of
the 1851 miracle, plus an American League
reject, put the Dodgers squarely behind
the S-ball yesterday. Dark, shortstop OF
Giants II years ago. appointed Billy Pierce
to- hold the Dodgers until the Giants could
scare up some runs The other survivor,
Willie Mays, appointed himself as the rum
getting ringleader Pierce never was better.
Ernie Broglio and Curt Simmons had
blanked the Dodgers two days running and
Billy wasn't to be outdone. His three-hitter
was his 205th victory of a distinguished
career. The way he looked, he might reach
800 ahead of Early Wynn, his one-time
teammate with the White Sox.
AS for Mays, he seems bent on becom-
ing the Bobby Thomson of '62. He packed q
fearful, If brief, slump into the final game
of the 162-game season, but slammed an
eighth-inning homer to put the Giants in
this playoff. Yesterday, the Dodgers could
not get him out.
ALI, THE RUNS THE Giants needed
were produced by willie's first inning, two
run homer. Another homer and single
more than matched the hitting of the en-
tire Los Angeles club. Just Mays VS.. the
Dodgers would have been one-sided.
Walt Aston, no more glum and grim
than any other manager who might get the
ak, conceded that San Francisco has the
momentum. His own hitters went into
slump on September 16 and his team mas
lost five consecutive series. The Giants,
until day before yesterday weren't gaining
on Alston's team as much as Waits guys
were coming back to them.
Today Aston changed his mind ana
decided to go for broke with Drysdale.
His early selection was Stan Williams, a
1912 pitcher who had been beaten four
times this season by the Giants. Drysdale
is pretty well used up, but Aston decided to
90 with his best, used up or no, because II
the Dodgers don't win today there's no TO-
morrow. There's only posterity.

MW LOSE OR DRAW

LOS ANGELES, OCT. 2 = There is a
place in history awaiting the Dodgers. One
more loss to the Giants, today or tomor-
row, and Immortality is inevitable, irrevo-
cable. Twenty years from now small, hate
full children who have big ears or read rec
ord books will climb onto their laps.
Cramps" they will beg, "tell story,
willya? Like when you played for Los An
geles back in 80, what happened2"
1--WE choked We choked all the way up
to here"
"Up to where your hands are grabbing
me, GrampsP So high on the neck?" (sound
of gurgling, followed by dark, permanent
silence).
This, If 1t keeps up, has got togo down
as the most complete, most humiliating col
lapse in baseball annals. A week ago the
Dodgers appeared to be home free in the
National League. Today, going into the sec
ond game of the pennant playoff, 1t looked
as If only miracle could save them.
What has happened to them has been
fantastic Thirty innings without scoring
a run! Eleven losses in their last IA games!
THEY WERE WALKING zOMBIES
when they left San Francisco last night,
embarrassed again by 80 Disbelief, frus-
tration and anger were etched on their
faces. How could this happen to them-a
club so young, so gifted, so deep, so
speedy?
These are the Dodgers, for whom Maury
wills has stolen 100 bases, Tommy Davis
has led the league in hitting and batting
in runs, Don Drysdale has won Is games.
How was it possible for the eighth-place
Colts to embarrass them, the sixth-place
Cardinals to devastate them, and the
Giants to administer all but the coup de
grace?
But there it was, chums, and as these
lines were written Manager Alvin Dark,
happy survivor of the miracle of Coogan's
Bluff in 1851, was handing the ball to Jack
Sanford, his PAT pitcher, and asking him
to wrap 1t up.
THIS WAS POTENTIALLY a more dis
NAL collapse than that Of their forerun-
ners who represented Brooklyn II years
ago. That season, while the Dodgers once
held a bigger lead, the Giants (wearing
New York" across their chests had more
time to charge And when the Giants made
their move it was authentic. They won 81
of their final A games to tie the Dodgers

and the season has just begun.
Three weeks ago, who would

But Nutgent says N. G. State
is and he sounds somewhat Sc
rious. He doesn't have to sell
tickets for this one, since it's

Two things have happened
