NO. 40 PLATTSMOUTH, NEBRASKA MONDAY, JULY, 15, 1946 NO. 161 'tir -te&ij& ft ill"" 3 1 H R i i ( Reds to Release Two Americans Held Prisoners : BERLIN Oi Major General -Frank A. Resting, American mili tary government, said Monday night that he was going to Rus- - sian headquarters later in the evening to receive two Americans who have been prisoners of the Soviet ? for 15 days. Keating said he had been not ified by the Russians that they , would turn over Warrant Officer 5 Samuel L. Harrison, and his wife. Faith, of Harrah. Okla., and San Antonio, Texas at Soviet head quarters Monday nitrht. Two Others Missing Two other Americans are still missing after venturing into the Soviet zone. Keating predicted ''sensational developments,' the nature of . which he declined to specify, when the missing Americans return. He said the Russians had not officially acknowledged that they were holding two other Amer ican officers. They were Capt. Harold Cobin of Newark, N. J. and Lt. George Wyatt of Okla homa City. They boarded a train 5 or nearnv uranienDunr July 4 and disappeared. The Harrisons have been miss ing since .luly l. ihey let: in a jeep for a spot in north Berlin to see about the purchase of a dog. They were assumed to have wandered accidentally across the line into the forbidden Soviet zone. First Explanation Keating would not divulge detils which led Soviet officials to charge that Russian prisoners were being held by the Americans. He said merely that the Soviets claim- ed two of their officers were pris oners. The report gave the first ex planation of why the Russians were holding the Harrisons. The : status of the other officers was ' not made clear immediately. Oran ienburg is in the Russian occupa- tion zone, and after they disap-! peared they were assumed to be I detained by the Russians. -Army j tfficials rase on were in here had discus?,ed their i trie assumption that they i Russian hands, and aP" ,l v.. j'a tions for the release of the Amer icans. 30 Turn Out for Swimming Class Approximately 80 youngsters turned out Monday morning at ; the court house for the first day j of the Red Cross free swimming j classes being held Monday through j Saturday at Merritt beach. j The group was taken to the j beach in a truck.
