tunity to contribute to its pro-
grams during the coming year.
under a plan devised by the
president, Miss Marguerite Grit
fin.
In order to increase interest
in the club activities, Miss Grit
fin has divided the membership
into nine groups Of 40 women
each. Each group. which includes
active, life and Junior members,
will be in charge Of all activities
OF the club for a full month dur
ing the 1949-50 season.
The new plan is being discussed
and leaders elected at a series OF
teas which Miss Griffin Is giving
for the various groups.
So far, six teas have been held
and programs have been arranged
through February. The March,
April and May programs will be
outlined at teas in September.

Athens Specializing
That Moscow Purqe
Forced Markos Out
BY the Assoeiofsd Press

| ATHENS, Greece, Feb. 5.-Gov-
ernment sources speculated today
that the Greek Communist guerrilla
leader Markos Vafiades has been
"purged" because he believed Mos
cow was not always necessarily
right.
The guerrillas' underground radio
announced yesterday that Markos
was relieved of political leadership.
Nationalist government leaders In

Markos also had been fired as mill

T Shakeup Linked to Tito Case.
A highly authoritative govern
ment source said he believed the
shakeup may be connected with the
rift between the Kremlin and Yugo-
slavia's Premier Marshal Tito. This
source said the Greek Politburo
demanded that Markos take a stand
in this dispute, and that "Markos
apparently wished to remain friend
ly with both and consequently was
ousted."
He said Markos' position already
had been weakened because of a
series of defeats at hands Of the
Nationalist forces.
! Several government officials said
the loss of Markos and his woman
| lieutenant, Chrisa Hadjivasiliou, also
ousted from the Politburo, is GER
tain to hurt rebel morale. Both
were popular leaders, they said, and
the rebels now will have to purge
those who were loyal to them.
The underground radio remained
silent on who had succeeded Markos

leader was Gy Vontitsios, better
