We Were Just Fooling,
Companion Sobs
NEW YORK, Feb. 26 (UP)-— Phillip Fernette, 12, died in a Brooklyn hospital today from a bullét wound in the head re{ceived when he lost a game of “Russian roulette.” The boy and a playmate, Andrew Ravettini Jr, 14, were alone at the latter's home when they found three guns, including a revolver, belonging to Andrew's father. Then they found some 32-caliber cartridges which fit the revolver, “Remember the movie we saw that had the ‘Russian roulette’ games,” Andrew asked. Phillip nodded. They both stared at the gun, then one of them slipped
the cartridge in place and twirled the cylinder, “Just Fooling”
“But we're just fooling,” said Phillip.
There was a report and he slumped to the floor. : When the police arrived Andrew was praying over and over, “I hope Phillip doesn’t die.” “We were only fooling,” he sobbed.

yo Cleric Begs for Life At Spy Trial
‘I Have Sinned, | Repent,’ He Cries, After Plea of Guilty.
By EDWARD MM. KORRY
— United Press Stall Correspondent SOFIA, Feb, 26—The Rev. Vas-| sily Zyapkov, head of the Congregational Church in Bulgaria, confessed his guilt, proclaimed repentance and pleaded tearfully for his life today at the mass trial of 15 Pilotestant ministers. Pastor Zyapkov was the third of the defendants fo have his say In
district court. Like the others, ger,
he pleaded guilty. But his confession was the most abject of
the three-man court trying the ministers on charges of treason, black marketing and espionage for the United States and Great
‘I Have Sinned’
At times his voice rose to a shriek. At others it dropped to a hoarse whisper. He waved his arms, and tears rolled down his
“I have sinned,” he cried,
repent. I repent. I repent.”
He threw himself on the mercy
of the court, begging the judges not to sentence him to become a {heap of earth.”
Pastor Zyapkov was a member of the Bulgarian delegation at the peace conference in 1946. A government “yellow book” on the current case called him the archplotter of the clerical group on trial. The indictment charges Pastor Zyapkov was a spy for the Western powers even at the peace conference. Indictment Set Forth “Instead of honestly doing: his duty to his motherland,” the indictment said, “he carried out the instructions of foreign intelligence.” “All decisions taken at the sittings of the delegation re relayed to the delegations of England and America. In this way Pastor Rapier has clearly harmed the cause and facilitated the plans of the western imperialists.” At the opening of the second day of the trial, Yanko Nikolov Ivanov, Methodist church supervisor in Bi testified he supplied Soviet military information to American officials. Pastor Ivanov testified for two hours today in addition to two hours and 50 minutes of testimoyesterday which was started off with what appeared to be a qualification. ~~ Details Activities He detailed how he organized intelligence activities at the request of Cyril Black, former U. 8. legation staff member, in 1945, Pastor Ivanov was the second defendant called and the second to plead guilty. Pastor Nicola Naumbv, president of the supreme council of the United Evangelical Churches of Bulgaria and secretary of the Baptist Church union board, was the first to testify yesterday. He, too, pleaded guilty. Patsor Ivanov testified today that, beginning in September, 1945, he began. collecting information from all over Bulgaria on the numbers and location of Soviet troops, the arrival of Russian families, the strength of possible opposition to the government and economic data. He said he toured the country several times collecting information which he passed on to Miss {Melany Turner, principal of the { American college at Lovetch, and {later to her successor, Miss Helen | Cooper.

He said many | peasants supported Nikola Pet|kov, Agrarian Party leader who was later executed, but that these] peasants “expressed fear that America would abandon us at the crucial moment because the Soviet Union was behind the Cony munists.” He said he received one Jetter “from one of his Bulgarian n- | formants. saying “we can struggle against communism but not |against the Soviet Union.” In connection with the election postponement, Ivanov said, “I proposed that the church remain far from political life.” “I told my pastors to campaign in the elections, but privately. not {a8 part of the church.

It would give legislators $6.20 per diem for each day of the 61-day session. The one serious note struck in debate was offered by Rep. Russell I. Richardson (R. Lebanon), who said that since he voted against payment of the administration’s bonus bill, he had to be “consistent and deny my support to this raid on the state treasury.” - He sald although he only received $1200 for his service, he would gladly have accepted half the amount since he received more than $1000 worth of - experience.

Other Congressional develop ments:
Pact Sen. Walter F. George (D. Ga), called on the State Department to make “crystal clear” what this nation’s obligations will be under the North Atlantic defense pact. Sen. George, a ranking member of the Foreign Relations commit. tee, said he had suggested several top-secret changes in the U, 8, treaty draft and had been assured changes were under consid eration.

He made the statement after a debate yesterday with Raymond P. Jackson, a lawyer for the National AsSoctation of Electric Companies. Mr. Jackson claimed that a proposed $2 million steam plant for - the Tennessee Valley Authority at New Johnsonville, Tenn. would be unconstitutional. Sen. Cordon said he disagreed.
