"The secret service and the president were notified and put on the alert," he said. 'The other execution teams remained. One, according to Garrison's files, was in New Orleans. Again, according to those files, that group consisted of Lee Har- vey Oswald, David W. Ferrie, Clay Shaw and other so far un- named parties." Oswald was named by the Warren Commission as the lone slayer of the president, Ferrie last week died in New Orleans of what has been described as natural causes. Shaw was are rested Wednesday in connection with the district attorney's in- vestigation into an alleged con- 6piracy to kill Kennedy. A WINS spokesman said Edele son had not visited New Or leans.
