By JACK HAND SHIBE PARK, PHILADELPHIA (AP)—Yankee Vic Raschi won the opening World Series game today, 1-0, in a brilliant pitching duel with Jim Konstanty, the Phillies sensational relief ace, before 30,746 fans. Bobby Brown's double, followed by two outfield flies, produced the game's only run in the fourth inning. Raschi, strong-armed righthander who pitched the "big games" for the Yanks all season, set down the National League champs with two singles. Both came in the fifth inning, the only time the Phils had a man as far as second base. Retiring the first 13 batters in succession, Raschi pitched a brilliant ball game, and it had to be top drawer to beat Konstanty, manager Eddie Sawyer's daring gamble. Bespectacled Jim allowed only four hits in his eight-inning stint, his first start since he was pitching with Toronto in 1948. After 74 record breaking relief jobs he finally got his chance to start but lost a toughie. Russ Meyer pitched the ninth inning after he was yanked.

VOLUME LXXIX Anaheim's FIRST Newspaper ANAHEM Show-Down Looming on UN Course in Korea LATE NEWS LAKE SUCCESS (AP) — The General Assembly's political committee overwhelmingly apBoosted State Gains Show-Down Looming on UN Course in Korea LATE NEWS LAKE SUCCESS (AF) — The General Assembly's political committee overwhelmingly approved today a Korean peace plan providing for unification of the country and giving tacit approval to the crossing of the 38th Parallel by United Nations forces. LAKE SUCCESS (AF) — Britain and Russia, sponsors of rival Korean peace plans, brushed aside today compromise suggestions advanced by India and Yugoslavia as the U. N. Assembly's Political committee moved toward a show-down vote on the case. The resolution, offered by Britain and seven other nations and supported by the United States, was expected to receive overwhelming support in the 60-nation committee and later by a plenary session of the General Assembly itself. The eight-nation proposal calls for a strong U. N. commission to oversee the unification, pacification and rehabilitation of Korea. It also would make war-torn Korea a "pilot project" to demonstrate what the United Nations can do for devastated and under-developed states. British Minister of State Kenneth Younger charged the Soviet proposal merely offered the U. N. "A chance to wash its hands of its responsibilities in Korea." Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Y Vishinski said the eight-nation plan was "utterily unacceptable" and had as its purpose the securing of "the interests of American monopolies" in Korea. Delegates, in private conversations, have labelled the Soviet proposal an attempt to snatch political victory from military defeat and have indicated they want no part of any such scheme.

Halsei, well-known Santa Ana land owner, was sued today by a waitress who claims he jabbed her and caused her to fall down a flight of stairs. Mildred Chase, employed in the Santa Ana Hotel Cafe, asked $25-166.44 damages from Halsei for injuries she said she suffered October 5, 1949, when she fell after Halsei jabbed her. The young woman claimed that she was descending a stairway from the second floor dining room when Halsei "assaulted and committed a battery" upon her by jabbing her. She demonstrated but he did not desist, she claimed, and then she fell suffering a back injury.

Temperatures The temperature reading in downtown Anaheim at 2 this afternoon was 88 degrees. High temperature for the past 24 hours was 93 degrees at 3:30 p.m., yesterday. Low was 51 at 6:30 a.m., today. Communities VIENNA (AP)—More than 1000 communist demonstrators seized the main post office and telephone exchange in Wiener Neustadt in the Russian zone of Austria today. The seizure was reported by U.S. authorities. In Vienna about 7000 communist demonstrators were reported marching on the governmental center in an effort to back a general strike for pay increases. The Wiener Neustadt communists beat off 150 Austrian police men who tried to stop them from entering the post office. The seizure could lead to interruption of communications between Vienna and the British Zone.

Red Girl Writes Ode to Machine WASHINGTON (AP)—An 18-year-old girl in communist East Germany who wrote a love poem to a machine is being gently ribbed by the "Voice of America." Ires Nebel, who lives in Saxony, won acclaim in the communist press for the verse, which it hailed as evidence of "creative progress in the working class." The poem was thus quoted by the state department radio: "I love you because you are beautiful, "You shine in the sun and price conrtol. There has been indication that any price can be contemplated soon.

But perhaps in the next five-year plan—who knows?" Bigger Pension Checks Go Out WASHINGTON (AP) — Bigger pension checks started going out yesterday to some 3,000,000 social security beneficiaries. They were authorized by the recent act of Congress liberalizing benefits. The total increase will amount to some $50,000,000 a month. The first checks, dated Oct. 3, went out from Treasury regional offices in six cities. They totalled approximately $112,000,000 against last month's $62,000,000. The vast majority of the 3,000,000 beneficiaries are persons over 65 years old. The average check under the new law will be $46 against a previous $26 average.

Wiener Neustadt commu-t off 150 Austrian police-tried to stop them from the post office.

The Russians opposed local Austrian communist leaders on the issue of current red strikes and demonstrations, including a detailed plan for an attempted putsch—Czechoslovak style—against the Austrian government. The Cominform delegates, backed by Russian authority, told the Austrian communists in effect: "This is not the time. Your action should be limited to harassing the government." The communists have been doing that for days now. Today there was a demonstration by some 7000 in the center of Vienna before the city hall, ostensibly to protest the government stand on wages and prices. In the Soviet zone of Austria, at the same time, more than 1000 communist demonstrators seized the post office and telephone exchange at Wiener Neustadt. This move was linked with a communist general strike movement, now apparently fizzling. British authorities summoned an emergency session of the four-power Allied body charged with the Security of Vienna, to discuss an Austrian government note protesting Russian interference with Austrian police. The strike itself was fizzling. The communist march from the Russian-occupied suburbs to Vienna (Continued on Page 8) Arthur Sesma Services Told Holy Rosary for Ensign J.

Again in the third, a leadoff single by Raschi and a second straight pass to oWodling gave the Yanks a big chance to break a scoreless tie. Rizzuto's sacrifice bunt moved both men along but they never could make it the rest of the way. Berra's fly to Sisler was too short to score Raschi and the pitcher held third base. Konstanty walked DiMaggio intentionally to load the bases and set up a force play. He didn't get the force but got out of the inning on Mize's pop to Jones. In the seventh a low peg by Jones for an error and Woodling's single to center had Big Jim in trouble. Once again he got out of it by retiring Rizzuto and Berra. Allie Reynolds (16-12) was manager Casey Stengel's choice to try for the Yanks' second straight win here tomorrow. Robin Roberts (20-12), hero of Sunday's pennant-clincher, will work for the Phils. After tomorrow's game the scene shifts to Yankee stadium in New York for the third and fourth games. See play by play description, Page 2. Weather S.

Deep in Enemy Land TOKYO (AP)—South Korean troops prowled deeper into North Korea today on spearhead missions feeling for the red army that has all but vanished and gone silent before Deep in Enemy Land TOKYO (AP)—South Korean troops prowled deeper into North Korea today on spearhead missions feeling for the red army that has all but vanished and gone silent before them in ominously empty country. They got as far as 60 miles beyond Parallel 38 as the American command announced the arrival in the Far East of a new reinforcing division—the U. S. Third Infantry—to join the Korean fighting if necessary. But still the penetration force north of 38 was composed solely of fighting Korean nationals with about 60 American Army men along as advisers. The United Nations Allies were held back in mop-up and reserve positions in liberated South Korea. The latest red mystery column that steamed down from the Manchuria border of red China into North Korea was discounted by an air force spokesman as a regular highway supply train and not a foreign troop convoy. The North Koreans are equipped with Russian heavy fighting material and much of it may have come from Soviet-dominated Manchuria along the highway over the Yalu river frontier. General MacArthur's headquarters announced the Third Division had arrived in the Far East command from the American west coast. A spokesman would not say where or when. But it obviously had movement orders before the war took a decisive turn in mid-September with the Allied beachhead landings at Inchon. Official sources declined again to say whether Americans and other United Nations liberation forces would join the South Koreans above 38. American strength in the war theater now is six divisions plus a regimental combat team. British, Australian and Philippines ground forces also are in South Korea. Thai and French units have been assigned to the operation. South Koreans captured Kosong, 50 airline miles north of the border along the east coast. Patrols stabbed still farther north in a drive which South Koreans say will go all the way to the Manchuria border.

Great animal prices for seaview the range of authority for price control. There has been no indication that any price controls contemplated soon. Along with this forecast of price trends came an indication that the time may not be far off when home refrigerator and freezing units will take the upsurge downs out of meat prices. For years meat prices have fluctuated sharply from low levels during the fall and winter season of heavy marketings to high prices during the late summer. But now there are enough refrigerator and home freezing units in American homes to influence week-to-week and seasonal demands and prices for meats, the department said. The report on current prospects and that farm sales of meat animals are increasing and will continue to increase through the fall early winter months to enableaughterers to put more pork, beef and lamb in butcher shops.

Advance Gift Drive Dick Gay will chairman the advance gift section of the 1950 Anaheim Community Chest effort. That was the announcement made this morning by Community Chest directors through Publicity Chairman Bert Arnold. Gay will head a group of some 30 workers to solicit advanced gifts. Advanced gift drive gets underway October 15. Advanced gifts are looked for to make up at least 68 per cent of the 1950 $22,-500 Community Chest goal, Gay said. The 1950 goal exceeds that of 1949 by some $5000. General solicitation begin November 1 under the general chairmanship of Ray Reafsynder. Agencies to benefit from the drive and their tentative budgets: Boy Scouts, $6600; Girl Scouts, $8200; Visiting Nurses, $1500; Salvation Army, $1700; Catholic Welfare, $3500. At least 200 workers are expected to take part in the 1950 campaign. Community Chest officials remind Anaheimers who work outside the city that contributions made at their place of employment can be applied to the Anaheim total. Three More City Workers to Retire The names of three more retiring city employees were added to the list of 14 already announced last night at an adjourned meeting of the city council. The three are J. J. Reaves, street department, Sgt. Grant, Rude, Police department, and Miss Florence Swerdfeger of the library. The three will retire under the state municipal employees retirement plan as of November 1. British, Australian and Philippines ground forces also are in South Korea. Thai and French units have been assigned to the operation. South Koreans captured Kosong, 50 airline miles north of the border along the east coast. Patrols stabbed still farther north in a drive which South Koreans say will go all the way to the Manchuria border. AP correspondent William Jordan reported from the front that 4000 red troops are digging into strong defenses southeast of Tongchon. That town is 25 miles north of Kosong and about halfway to Wonsan where the reds are reported building up for a major stand. American Marines remained in captured Uijongbu, 20 miles south of the border in the west coastal area. Supplies and equipment flowed into the rubbled Uijongbu from Inchon port. Marine Casualties Total 2,357 WASHINGTON (P)—The Marine Corps reported today that its casualties in the Korean war through September 25 totaled 2357 in dead, wounded, missing and non-battle casualties. On that day the Marines were deep into the bitter fighting that brought about the capture of Seoul. This was three months before the invasion of South Korea. Major Merwin H. Silverthorn, Marine Corps assistant commandant, supplied the figures. He told the House Armed Services committee the casualties were 346 killed in battle, 66 died of wounds, 1901 wounded but lived, 30 missing in action, and 14 non-battle casualties. He said the Marine Corps now has 31,527 men in the Korean theatre.
