World Series victory and a tiebreaker in the fifth game against the St. Louis Cardinals today with the series all square at 2-2. Opposing the lean Yankee sinker-bailer was the man he outpitched in the second game at St. Louis — fastballer Bob Gibson, also a right-hander. A bright sun sent temperatures into the 60s for the third game at Yankee Stadiim that will determine which of these two old rivals has the edge when the series shifts to St. Louis for the sixth game Wednesday. Gibson was 19-12 for the Cards in the National League but was charged with the second game defeat as Stottlemyre went all the way on a sevenhitter for an 8-3 The young Yankee, called up from Richmond last Aug. 11, had a 9-3 record in the closing American League weeks. Manager Johnny Keane of the Cards switched his lineup slightly to counter right-handed pitching—moving up Bill White to the third spot and dropping Dick Groat to fifth. Yogi Berra of the Yankees switched Joe Pepitone and Tom Tresh from Sunday’s positions. Pepitone batted sixth and Tresh seventh.

MOSCOW (UPD — Russia today launched the first passen-ger-carrying space ship. A pilot and two passengers—a scientist and a doctor—were aboard the craft launched at (3:30 am. EDT). Moscow television said the space ship “VosKhod” (sunrise) had gont into orbit and was operating smoothly. The launching of the first space craft to carry more than one person came 3% years after the Russians sent up Yuri Gagarin as the first man in space. The American two-man "Gemini” space shot is not expected until February at the earliest. The first three-man U.S. spaceship pdobably will not be launched for at least two years. Soon after the start of Voskhod’s flight, which was expected to last at least 24 hours, the Soviets hinted at an even more spectacular space feat. The official Soviet News Agency Tass quoted a visiting French space scientist as saying that one or two of the three Russians now in orbit may venture outside the space craft during the flight. May Leave Ship Tass said it had interviewed Jean Coulombe, chairman of France’s National Center for Space Research, in Leningrad and quoted him as saying; “The fact that there are three spacemen in one ship will enable one or two of them to venture outside the ship.” Voskhod was orbiting the earth every 90.1 minutes on a path taking it as far as 255.6 miles from the earth and as near as 112.5 mites. The pilot and flight commander is Col. Vladimir M. • Komadov, 37, whose hobby is strumming the guitar and singing folk music. The engineering scientist is Konstatin Feoktistov, 38, who, according to Tass, is not a Communist. Hie doctor is Boris Yegorov, 27, who became a physician only three years ago. Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev talked to the space ship by radio ahd promised the men an overwhelming welcome when they return to earth. The Soviet television carried the first transmission from aboard Vos khod. The flight was man’s 13th journey into space. Moscow television announcer Yuri Levitan, the man who has broadcast all big Soviet news for the past 25 years, came on the screen to hail the latest Soviet space spectacular. The capital of communism was agog. Crowds vanished from the streets as Muscovites flocked to radios and television sets. Only a few children and some women shoppers could be seen on the normally crowded sidewalks. The official Soviet news agency Tass said the aims of die new space flight are: —To test the new multi-seat guided space ship. - . —To check the capacity for work and interaction during the space flight of a group of cosmonauts consisting of specialists in different fields of science and technology. —To carry out scientific and technical investigations into the conditions of a space flight. —To continue the study of the effects of different factors of space flight on man’s organism. —To carry out extended med icobiological research in the conditions of a long flight.

Over 400 Attend Conference

By Dick Heller, Jr:, Well, the 1964 UPI editors and publishers meeting is over. Four panels, each with four expert newspapermen, four outstanding speakers, two receptions and a banquet — and lots of new friends and acquaintances from all parts of the United States. ■ Among the more than 400 men and women attending the conference were those representing millions of subscribers daily, and those with only a few thousand. Some were owners, some were publishers for corporations, some were editors working under a publisher. All were vitally interested in each topic presented, and uniting the whole into a meaningful experience for themselves, and for their readers. Tom Boardman, editor of the Indianapolis Times, was chairman of the session which included the introduction of both President Diosdado Macapagal of the Philippines and Sen. Barry Goldwater. Pres. Macapagal explained his country’s devotion to democracy, but explained that he also had to face the facts of reality, and trade with his African and Asian neighbors. The handsome smiling president was quite short, and nearly disappeared behind the lectern, and his soft voice often failed to say as much as he intended, but the editors followed the speech with their own copies of his speech. Unusual Meeting For this was an unusual meeting — all there had access to the press room, and its facilities! Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Ronald, of Portland, flew in for the conference. Mr. and Mrs. Joe Nixon of Wabash arrived Sunday and flew to Williamsburg, Va., Monday. Tom Heth, publisher of the Frankfort paper, the Michigan City Dispatch editor, Mr. Averill, the South Bend publisher — these and several others attended. Almost every state was represented. Os greatest interest, and surprise, to the editors was the appearance of both Sen. Goldwater and Sen. Humphrey. Sen. Goldwater appeared first. He was speaking to a group which was made up almost exclusively of Republican newspapers (we found one independent Democratic paper, but there may have been others besides ourselves) although some, like the Indianapolis Times, have already announced for Johnson this year. As the panel discussion ended preceding the senator’s appearance, I went to the press room to get a .copy of his speech, which was not available until just before he rspoke, On my way back, I saw his’ arrival with a few members of his group. A uniformed bodyguard, who looked six foot, six inches tall, was with him. Sen. Goldwater was taller — and coarser — than we expected. He was not ar? charming as he appears on TV. His freckled, tanned face was a dark and unimpressive background for a tired face, and snaggletooth look that made him seem strangely out of place. He soon entered the hall, and from my front-oeat vantage spot (I took many pictures, and was able to get a front seat every time) I was able, between shots, to follow his speech and his mannerisms. Unimpressed Most of the editors were most impressed, or unimpressed, by his delivery, which was monotone, almost apologetic. It reminded you of Hoover’s voice during the depression— when every time he spoke, the market would drop ten points! But this wasn’t the most disstressing point. The speech itself was a point-by-point development of a program. This program did not represent the Republican party. It showed no reflection of the positions of former President Eisenhower, of John Foster Dulles, of former senator Arthur Vandenburgh — it did not even accurately reflect the feelings of the late Senator Taft, himself a minority in the GOP. Point by point. Senator Goldwater repudiated the 20th, and most of the 19th, centuries as meaningless. Starting from positions of fantasy he developed his answers, in black-and-white terms, to what He considers the world problems. Now it is one thing for an unlearned man, completely ignorant of world events of any understanding of them, to make barroom harwangues about what this country needs. It is another for a supposedly educated, highly placed official representing on* of our two great political parties to do so. ♦ The speech left the conservative audience cold. There was no applause during it, only polite clapping following. And this, despite many were really avid followers. The senator, refused to answer questions afterward, which thoroughly disgusted the newsmen. Humphrey Alive Then the next afternoon came

Sen. Humphrey. Sen. Humphrey was entirely different. He was about six feet toll, and his forehead was not tanned, but sunburned over a few freckles. His ruddy, smiling face generated an entirely different feeling in the audience. More than one rushed up afterward to say that they had been on the fence but the senator had convinced them. • Sen. Humphrey outlined his and President Johnson’s positions. He refused to think of America as either sick or tired — instead, he kidded Sen. Goldwater about not being so worried about the Democrats being soft on "Communism — but really being worried about the nation’s businessmen being soft on Johnson! This brought down the house. He rejected, one by one. Sen. Goldwater’s points, defining accurately the historical context in which each problem must be understood, and he explained his position and reasoning. He answered' questions fully and very well on many things for better than an hour — from ADA to the peace corps, both of which he helped to found. While both speeches are quite long, we hope to be able to print them in full before the election.

t i WASHINGTON (UPI) - The s Supreme Court refused today to . reconsider its controversial j state legislative reapportion- _ ment ruling but agreed to hear e new voter dispute cases from , Virginia and Georgia.

Sen. Humphrey was especially successful, before a Republican audience, by quoting primarily Republican positions against Goldwater — this was quite effective. Visit Graveside The conference opened with a tour to the Kennedy gravesite by the women, but most of their huebands acompanied them, and the tomb of the unknown soldier was included for good measure. That afternoon the women rushed back and changed clothes for the tour of the Spanish embassy. The embassy has just been recently redecorated, and thus volunteered itself (as in the Washington diplomatic custom) as the embassy for the group to visit. Some of the editor’s wives preferred not to go, out of disdain for Franco’s fascist Spain, but most went anyway, and were introduced to the gracious Marquesa, wife of the ambassador, who showed them around the embassy, and pointed - out the many famous pictures. As soon as the women returned they had to get ready for the formal reception, which preceded the premiere of “Four Days in November’’ produced by RKO and UPI. This was also formal, with movies taken of the guests as they (Continued on Page Six)

He said ‘ the ‘ Bill of Rights “says what we will not do as a government” while the bill of responsibilities tells what we propose to do as a people “to make obr rights more worth having.” Article 1 of the new bill said the government must act with “restraint,.” The articles said the government must “keep the domestic peace. We cannot tolerate violence in our land— North, South, East or West.” Other articles said the government must keep the peace, discharge U.S. responsibilities of world leadership, and encourage the expansion of the economy.

court agreed to hear a challenge to one portion of the state’s 1962 state senate reapportionment law which provides for county-wide voting in seven counties containing more than one senatorial district. A three-member federal court ruled the Georgia apportionment unconstitutional last March 27. Consider Another Ruling Also accepted for consideration by the Supreme Court today was another lower court ruling involving the Georgia situation. This ruling involving the Georgia situation. This ruling prevents Georgians from voting on their new constitution in the November election and also limits the ’authority of the next General Assembly to legislative matters only for the time being. The bar to voting on the Constitution presumably wi 11 stand but the second proviso of the lower court decision can now be subject to consideration. In an allied case, the court rejected without comment a challenge to the method of districting the California State Senate brought by Los Angeles Mayor Samuel W. Yorty and Frank G. Bonelli, a Los Angeles County supervisor. ~ The court, which began its news session last Monday, accepted and rejected today a voluminous number ,of appeals for hearings in cases ranging from the State Department’s right to deny passports for travel in Cuba to the parodying of popular song hits by "Mad’* magazine, a humor publication.
