Dow Jones's average of 30 blue chips, which closed Tuesday at a record high, climbed 1.38 to 1,398.05 by 11 a.m. today on Wall Street. Gainers held a 3-2 lead over losers among New York Stock Exchange- listed issues.

Analysts said falling interest rates have raised hopes on Wall Street for a strong economy in 1986. Prices have risen sharply, with a concomitant drop in interest rates, in the credit markets lately. This morning, prices of long-term government bonds showed gains ranging to $5 for every $1,000 in face value. Lower rates would presumably act as a stimulus to spending for construction and capital equipment, taking the onus off debt-laden consumers to keep the economy growing. At the same time, falling rates reduce the relative appeal of interest-rate bearing investments like bonds that compete with stocks for investors' favor.

Continued from Page 1A Mrs. Whitmlre's victory reflected her resounding turnaround since Welch announced hia candidacy in May, when polls showed him holding a double-digit lead. The 68-year-old Welch quit his Job as president of the Houston Chamber of Commerce and eventually made AIDS the No. 1 issue in the nonpartisan race.

But Mrs. Whitmire, who supported a city ordinance banning sexual discrimination in public hiring only to see city voters throw it out in January, campaigned on her administration's record, including educating people to the dangers of AIDS. "I believe tonight we've sent a message to the nation," Whitmire told her supporters Tuesday. "Because of your love, we sent a message that Houston has made great progress, that we're working to make this city the best city to live, to work, to do business and to raise families." Welch said he had hoped for a higher turnout. "We have known all along that with any count (turnout) less than 400,000 it would be very difficult to win this race," he said in a concession speech.

Mrs. Whitmire finished with 200,788 votes, or 58,88 percent, to Welch's 138,552 votes, or 40.63 percent, in a field that included six candidates. Eight political newcomers calling themselves the Straight Slate sought City Council seats in a campaign based on adopting public health rules to protect residents of the nation's fourth-largest city from AIDS. None of the candidates was close to leading, But in two races, enough votes went to Straight Slate candidates to force a runoff, since the leading vote- getter had less than 50 percent of the ballots. One of the runoffs will involve Anthony Hall, the councilman who first proposed the gay rights that voters rejected.

Voters approved each of the two propositions constituting the water plan by margins of more than two-to- one. ABC rates fast despite mini-series Incorporation. Continued from Page 1A The boundaries of the second incorporation map have not been officially measured. Larry Heflin has said that while he and others are working toward incorporation of the entire area, they are not ready to file for incorporation. "We're still working on that," said Nancy Heflin when the map was proposed.

"We haven't got all of the legal details worked out but we know we want to incorporate the entire lake area so that we can control our own destiny." The Heflins and Richey agree with the backers of Tuesday's incorporation move that the area needs to incorporate to stop annexation from New Braunfels and San Antonio. Norris Flodine, a backer of Tuesday's incorporation effort, said he thinks incorporating the entire lake area would require a very high tax rate. Flodine said there is a possibility that the backers of Tuesday's effort will change the boundaries and refile for incorporation. NEW YORK (AP) ABC's "North and South" and "Dynasty" were Top 10 shows last week, but the network finished third again because Its series clones, movie specials and tired Aaron Spelling shows dominated the Bottom 10. Parti of "North and South," ABC's 12-hour miniseries, ranked fourth and had a 25.8 rating and 37 share, performing better than network researchers had forecast, which means ABC should pick up high ratings for the follow-up installments this week.

But, after that, ABC must rely on its regular series, which has meant generally low ratings, with the exception of "Monday Night Football" and Several programs on Tuesday and Wednesday night. Figures released Tuesday by the A.C. Nielsen Co. had NBC winning the week of Oct. 28-Nov.

3 with an average rating of 17.5. CBS had rating and ABC a 15.3. For the six- week prime-time season, NBC leads with an 18.0 rating to CBS' 16.9 and ABC's 16.2. A rating 'measures the percentage of the nation's 85.9 million homes with television. A share measures the percentage of sets in use.

The week's Top 10, in descending order, had NBC's "The Cosby Show" with a 30.1 rating, NBC's "Family Ties," CBS' "Murder, She Wrote," Part 1 of ABC's "North and South," CBS' "60 Minutes," NBC's "Cheers," CBS' "Dallas," NBC's "Night Court" and ABC's "Dynasty," tied for eighth, and NBC's movie, "48 Hrs." Nielsen's Bottom 10 included NBC's "Misfits of Science," CBS' "Twilight Zone" and ABC's "Ripley's Believe It or Not," tied for 55th, followed by a two-hour episode of ABC's "The Love Boat," ABC's "The Insiders," CBS' "Donald Duck's 50th Birthday Special," "Charlie CBS' "George Burns Comedy Week," ABC's movie "In the Midnight Hour," NBC's "Silver Spoons," ABC's movie repeat, "Goldfinger," and ABC's "Hollywood Beat," In last place. Of the ABC failures last week, "Hollywood Beat" and "The Insiders" both new shows were considered poor imitations of NBC's "Miami Vice." "Hollywood Beat" and the 9-year-old "Love Boat" come from the stable of Aaron Spelling, ABC's favorite producer. Here are the top 10 prime-time television ratings as compiled by the A.C. Nielsen Co. for the week of Oct.
