Reds Recall Australia CANBERRA, Australia If) The Soviet Union appeared Thursday to nave started yanking home any of Its people in Australia who were in too close contact with the Russian Embassy's fugitive third secretary Vladimir Petrov. In the wake of Petrov's defer. tlon to the West and the dramatic last-minute rescue of his wife from Soviet couriers hustling ber back to Moscow, the Kremlin was re ported to have recalled Victor An- tonov. correspondent in Australia lor the official Soviet News Agen cy Tass, and a junior Soviet em bassy attache, Y.E. Platkais. Reliable sources said the em bassy commercial attache, N.G, Kovalev, also was preparing lit an early night home. Antonov was believed by Aus tralian security officials to have been the chief contact man in the espionage ring in Australia which Petrov claims be headed. Petrov . turned over a huge mass of docu ments to the Australians to back up his claim when he sought re luge from Communism early this month, - Already winging his way back to Moscow emtpy handed was embassy second secretary F. B. Kislltsin, who with two arrred Russian diplomatic couriers tried unsuccessfully last Monday to chaperon Petrov's tearful wife back to Russia. Klslitsin and the two couriers continued their flight after Aus tralian authorities disarmed Mrs. Petrov's two burly escorts and look the. woman off the Europe Vound plane at Darwin. . . . Granted the rirtit in riin i,-.- husband as a political refugee, Mrs. Petrov left Darwin before dawn Thursday morning in a Royal Australian Air, Force plane and headed for his secret hiding place. ; M'-xkw- 1 CHICAGO LIVESTOCK CHICAOO L Hogs recorSed gains ranging to 25 cents Thurs day, one load of choice liglit weights reaching a top of tiS 'j.

Police Action Ruled On PORTLAND IP Police who searched an ex-convict's car after arresting bun on a minor traffic charge here exceeded their author ity, a Judge ruled Wednesday. Circuit Judge Lowell Mundorft posed these questions in the case of Ralph L. DeLashmutt. 51. for mer Washington state prisoner: "Can an arrest for some trivial violation of traffic laws or the like furnish justification for extensive search for evidence of other crimes? "If a person should be arrested in his home for failure to pay fines for parking violations, can the ar resting officers make a thorougn search of his home?" The Judge said such searches were illegal and ruled that the evi dence against DeLashmutt was not admissible. That evidence was a set of tools. Police said they were burglary tools found in DeLash mutt's car in a search they made an hour after arresting him for failure to stop at a traffic sign. He had been accused then of possession of burglary tools, and had been convicted in municipal court Feb. 25. The case was ap pealed to circuit court.
