" NEW YORK, Oct. 7 (UP) Big John Mize's ninth-inning pinch single with two men out touched off a three run V rally today and gave the New over the Brooklyn Dodgers in the third game of the World Series.

Loses Sharpness Then with one man out, after he had retired 14 successive Yankee Yan-kee batters, Branca lost his sharpness sharp-ness again and walked Yogi Berra. That didn't seem to matter much when Joe DiMaggio, who had been helpless at the plate all day. fouled to Gil Hodges. But Bobby Brown, who ruined ruin-ed the Dodgers in the 1947 series which the Yankees won in seven games by his pinch hitting, rifled a single to right which sent Berra to second. Pitching too carefully to Gene Woodling, Branca lost him on a base on balls, filling the bases. - Then Manager Casey Stengel of the Yankees called on big Mizen who is nearing the end of a long and brilliant baseball career. Mize Pays Off And Mize paid back every cent of that $75,000 the Yankees shelled shell-ed out to the New York Giants of the rival league to buy him last August. Until today, the big cat hadn't earned even his pay, for after playing only tivo games for his new club, he suffered a shoulder injury which kept him on the sidelines until a week ago. Even now he cannot throw and is used only for pinch-hitting. But old Case put him in a tough spot and Mize produced. After taking a ball, a strike and a second ball, Branca came down with one which Mize rifled to the right field screen. Berra and Brown scored and broke the tie. That looked like it would be enough for the Yankees to win the game. The Dodgers took Branca out and put in Jack Banta who pitched first to Gerry Coleman the scrappy second baseman of the Yankees. With a count of two strikes and no balls, he lined a clean single to center andHank Bauer, who fouling off the first pitch and then taking a second strike and a ball, grounded out, Miksis to Hodges.

Arthur W. Radford Rad-ford told congressmen today the Air Force's B-36 bombers are a "bad gamble with national na-tional security" and would be "useless defensively and inadequate in-adequate offensively" in an atomic war. Radford, Pacific fleet commander com-mander and top spokesman for Naval aviation, loosed his blast against present defense plans before be-fore a packed hearing of the house armed servires committee. He was the lead-off witness in a public inquiry at which the Navy's most famous uniformed figures were ready to bring out into the open their split with their civilian secretary and Adm. Louis Denfeld, chief of naval operations. op-erations. The 53-year-old admiral walloped wal-loped the B-36 as a giant un-proven un-proven clunker, and asserted that "American taxpayers cannot afford af-ford billion dollar blunders." Criticizes Procedures He castigated the j'stop and go" procurement procedures under which the Air Force first ordered other planes, then cut them out to buy B-36's, and he said "the unusual procedures used to push the B-36 program to its present status were not justified." Many people clustered outside the committee room as Radford read his 16 page study of defense problem and his criticism of the B-36,7 Ther fcopecTTtf Kerseatsr' T Of the B-36 procurement procedures, pro-cedures, which were the subject of an investigation' by the house committee and which resulted in an endorsement of the Air Force, Radford said: "They undermine all unification; unifica-tion; they prevent progress toward to-ward mutual trust, understanding and unified planning; they short cut the vital and proven procedures pro-cedures developed through experience exper-ience for safeguarding the security secur-ity of our country.' His Own Views Radford said his views were his own "I am not speaking for any segment of the armed services. serv-ices. I testify as a citizen and as a professional student of warfare. war-fare. I am concerned with the future of the Navy and the future of naval aviation only as they can contribute to the security of our nation." He said the B-36 itself is not so important as the theory of warfare it symbolizes, that is, the theory of the atomic blitz. He said threatening an enemy with an atomic blitz will not deter de-ter him from war, but even if that plan were to become American Amer-ican policy, "We must have a (Continued on Page Two) 'All-German' State Set Up By Soviets BERLIN, Oct. 7 (U.R) Soviet zone Communists today proclaimed proclaim-ed a new provisional "all-German state" with Berlin as its probable capital and demanded liquidation of the west German government at Bonn. Wilhelm Pieck, Moscow-trained German Communist leader, announced an-nounced establishment of the provisional pro-visional state to hundreds of cheering delegates representing all Soviet zone parties. He said elections for the new government would be held a year hence. Pieck himself is expected to be president of the provisional government that will rule in the interim. Delegates met in the German People's council building, formerly former-ly Hermann Goering's air force headquarters in the Soviet sector of Berlin, to hear the Communist reply to the establishment of a west German state. Pieck read a 20-point program for the new "all-German" state. He said he believed the Soviet Unjkm would endorse the proposals. pro-posals. They included: 1. Designation of Berlin as capital. cap-ital. 2. Reestablishment of 'Germany's 'Ger-many's political and economic unity. 3. Liquidation of 'the west German Ger-man state at Bonn.: 4.
