The National Leaguers, powered by the Giants' Dick Dietz and Willie McCovey, finally woke up in the ninth to tie the score and send the game into extra innings...
...nation. Explains Co-Coordinator David Hawk: "We're trying to get people to think and talk about the war in economic terms, to relate high defense spending to high taxes." "Boston tea parties" will be staged at Manhattan's Battery Park and along St. Louis' Mississippi riverfront. Fasts, rallies, parades and other demonstrations are planned for more than 30 U.S. cities, from Boston to Los Angeles, from Madison, Wis., to Dallas...
