What was going on when I was born?

The Koch administration has reached agreement with the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey on a $500 million package of investment and development at Kennedy International and La Guardia Airports over the next 15 years. As part of the agreement, the city would accept lower rent payments for the airports from the Port Authority. Several members of the Board of Estimate, which is scheduled to vote on the plan this week, criticized that concession yesterday, and one - City Comptroller Harrison J. Goldin, who led the negotiations with the port agency - said he would now vote to reject the agreement. The plans have also been criticized by a Queens citizens group that is demanding that the Port Authority pay for airport-related damage to surrounding neighborhoods. Unfair Practice Alleged In addition the City Comptroller's office charged yesterday that the Port Authority had unfairly deprived the city of $5 million in airport payments by changing certain accounting procedures without notifying the city.

The chairman of the Synthetic Fuels Corporation has expressed strong doubts about the need for plants that produce natural gas, raising new fears that the Government may reduce its support for the fledgling industry. Edward E. Noble, who took office a month ago, met last week with officials of the American Natural Resources Company, which is now building the Great Plains Coal Gasification project in North Dakota. He told them that he was concerned that the gas from what would be the nation's first modern-day commercial synthetic fuels plant would cost too much and might not be needed. Mr. Noble would not comment directly on accounts of these talks but they were confirmed by a spokesman for the Synthetic Fuels Corporation.

This, for a change, was not a tournament that somebody lost. It was a championship that David Graham won. He made up a three-stroke deficit today to capture the 81st United States Open by three strokes. Graham, who has been a regular on the American tour since 1971, became the first Australian to win the Open. And to celebrate the occasion fittingly, Graham ordered champagne for the press tent.

For a 19-year-old, Carl Lewis already has a habit of making history repeat. Two weeks ago, in the National Collegiate Athletic Association's outdoor tack and field championships, Lewis became the first athlete since Jesse Owens in 1936 to win a track event and a field event in the same championships. Tonight, in the USA/Mobil outdoor championships, he became the first athlete since Jesse Owens in 1936 to achieve the same feat in this meet. And there is more. Last night, Lewis long-jumped 28 feet 7 3/4 inches. That was the second longest jump in history to Bob Beamon's 1968 world record of 29-2 1/2, but the strong following wind negated it for record purposes. Tonight, before 9,700 cheering spectators at Hughes Stadium, Lewis jumped only once and reached 28-3 1/2, the second longest legal jump in history and the longest ever at sea level. The following wind was only 0.08 meters a second. It can be as high as two meters a second and still have the performance accepted. Last night's following wind was 4.57 meters a second, or 10.22 miles an hour.

The precipitous decline in American crude oil imports has significantly improved the nation's balance of payments, but the oil companies stuck with millions of barrels of unsold crude are having trouble dealing with the excess supply. Total United States imports of crude oil and refined products have plunged 33 percent from their peak levels of 1977. For the first five months of 1981, imports averaged only 5.9 million barrels a day, the American Petroleum Institute reported, compared with the record 1977 average of 8.8 million. As a result, the balance-of-payments burden of oil imports has also eased. Because oil import costs make up roughly a third of the total import bill, any change in oil import levels has an important impact on the international accounts of the United States.

Crowds of tourists from 14 states and three Canadian provinces came here this weekend for the opening of a $60 million amusement park and campground, and they served as living proof that tourists are pouring into New York State and spending money as never before. The hundreds attending the opening of the park, the Darien Lake Fun Country, were drawn in part by the ''I Love New York'' advertising campaign started in earnest in 1978 by the State Department of Commerce. ''We've heard it so much at home that our 5-year-old daughter, Erika, can even sing the song,'' said Terri Work of Brockport, Pa., as she fixed lunch for her family at the campground here. Her husband, Wayne, a 26-year-old machine operator, said the family had vacationed at Lake Chautauqua last year and decided to return to New York State in part because of the ideas presented by the television campaign.

yard third hole at Merion yesterday, George Burns tapped a 40-foot putt, trying for a birdie, that slid about 8 feet past the cup. But he saved his par and now he was walking toward the fourth tee when he overheard Harry Easterly, the senior executive director of the United States Golf Association, talking to another U.S.G.A. official. ''I heard Easterly say, 'That was a lousy first putt but he made the second putt,' '' George Burns was saying now. ''That's when I walked over and told him, 'Harry, you're a (vulgaraty).' ''

The mood of political uncertainty that has enveloped Spain since February's attempted military coup d'etat so far seems to have had relatively little impact on the flow of foreign investment into the country. In the wake of the attempted rightist takeover, which was aimed at overturning the country's five-year-old democracy, representatives from multinational companies have trooped to Spain to take its weak economic and political pulse. The influx of capital is below the 1979 peak, but the decline does not seem to have been aggravated by the coup attempt. Multinational companies that expect to use Spain as a springboard into the European Common Market appear to regard the country still as a good bet: Without democracy, Spain would be rejected by the European Economic Community. But some potential foreign investors also seem to have come to the distinct conclusion that a lurch back to more authoritarian rule would not be altogether bad for business.

State prison officials said yesterday that New York's prisons were jammed beyond capacity and that for the last two weeks the state had taken far less than its normal allotment of prisoners from Rikers Island. Thomas A. Coughlin 3d, State Commissioner of Correctional Services, said he was ''frantic'' in devising expedients to take in newcomers. In one new move, he has asked the United States Attorney General to lease for at least a couple of months 300 to 400 beds in two new Federal prisons at Otisville and Raybrook, the latter in a former Lake Placid Olympic facility.

International Control of France's National Assembly was won by the Socialist Party, led by the new President, Francois Mitterrand. In a sweeping victory, the Socialists and their centrist electoral allies, the small Radical Left Movement, will control between 280 and 293 of the 491 Assembly seats. The Communist Party will control 43 seats, fewer than half its previous total. The seats held by the allied parties of the right will be reduced from 274 to between 150 and 160. (Page A1, Column 6.) Abolhassan Bani-Sadr was impeached by the Iranian Parliament, which declared him politically incompetent. The action paved the way for his dismissal as President of Iran by the country's supreme leader, Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini. The impeachment vote was 177 to 1, with 11 members not voting. The President was ordered arrested on sight. (A1:5.)
