This should tide them over for

I feel sure that a thorough

Petrov Tells Of
Volume Of Secrets
Given By Traitors
Bv HERBERT FOSTER
WASHINGTON. May 12 —UP-
Brltish traitors Donald MacLean
and Guy Burgess gave Russia so
much secret Allied information
that a special section was set up
in Moscow to handle it, it was
disclosed Saturday.
The Senate Internal Security
committee released an affidavit
from Vladimir M Petrov, of Syd-
ney. Australia, reciting hearsay
evidence that the defecting British
diplomats had been spies for
years before they fled to Russia
In 1951
Petrov, a former Soviet secret
policeman deserted the embassy
in Sydney in 1954. His statement,
placed In the committee record,
was largely a repetition of parts
of an article he wrote for an
American magazine after he de-
fected to the West
Tell ot Switch
Burgess and MacLean told a
Moscow news conference last win-
ter that they had switched to the
Russian side.
The subcommittee has been
looking for information to support
Gen Douglas MacArthur's
charges that someone, possibly
Burgess and MacLean. tipped the
Communists the United States
wpu'd no* stuck China w-heu the
Chinese Reds intervened In the
Korean war.
There was no such dLect infor-
mation In Petrov's affidavit.
Both Britons had been stationed
for a time tn Washington.
Petrov said his assistant in the
Russian secret police in Australia
was Filipp Vasllievich Klslitsyn,
who had formerly worked In the
Soviet embassy tn London.
Saw Neither Man
He said Klslitsyn told him of
handling material which Burgess
furnished to the Russians by the
briefcase full, though Klslitsyn
never saw either Burgess or Mac-
Lean in London
Later, said Petrov. Klslitsyn
headed ‘a special one-man sec-
tion of the top secret archives" in
Moscow, set up solely to handle
the great quantity of material
supplied by MacLean and Bur-
gess."
He said Klslitsyn told him Bur-
gess and MacLean discovered
they were under security iavesti-

W. F. Cowper Dies
In Bristow Saturday
W F Cowper. aged pioneer Creek
count*in and longtime resident of
Bristow, was found dead In bed at
noon Saturday, according to inform-
ation relayed on to Fred Patrick in
Sapulpa Saturday afternoon.
Patrick was notified because the
deceased was an attorney and mem-
ber of the Creek county bar associa-
tion of which Patrick U president
Cowper was serving currently as
Justice of the peace tn Bristow and
was a candidate for re-election
James E. Stewart. 511 8 Mus-
kogee, will head Sapulpa's yet-to-
be - determined aemi - centennial
celebration tn 1957. according to
Emil Wyatt, president of the
chamber of commerce.
"It's going to be a big Job,"
Stewart said tn accepting the re-
sponsibility, "and I know right
now that if we have anything
worthwhile it will take a lot of
help physically and financially to
put it over the way that Sapulpa
deserves."
Stewart Friday Inspected the
Frisco depot in view of the pro-
posed Fred Harvey "revival."
"To carry out this idea would
entail some really workmanlike at-
tention." he said, "for the old wing
or section where the Harvey house
was located has fallen In disrepair
and would require considerable
labor to put It Into any condition
acceptable for the purpose."
Erect But* type get
One suggestion Stewart Is mull-
ing over Is a type at ‘backdrop"
k construction similar to that used
in the Sapulpa story a few years
ago In which the front of the Har-
vey house could be a “false" front
type" ... or movie set adaptation.
"If this could be worked out,"
be said, “it would create the eid-
time illusion which would be nec-
essary."
Developments folio wing the
original suggestion of the recreat-
ing of the Harvey house Idea here
for the semi-centennial discloses
that a lot of former Harvey house
employees including bakers, wait-
resses. chefs, etc. are living in
Sapulpa and could probably be
enticed \p taka part hi the nage-
in try ot the year.
Backed By C of C
Backing tho celebration in 1957
is the chamber of commerce. For-
mal approval by the directors was
made In a recent meeting.
Other communities over the
state are also busy at present lay-
ing plans for celebrations of a
various types. Claremore is said
to be eyeing staging the play
"Oklahoma" with as many of the
original cast as could be secured.
Lighted pageants on hillsides, land
runs, oil boom scenes and a score
of other activities are tinder way.
