  4.     Snoozing M.P.s perked up when British Prime Minister John
  5. Major made an unexpected disclosure last week. During a
  6. parliamentary speech, Major declared the existence of MI6,
  7. Britain's international espionage agency. Although volumes have
  8. been written about the 83-year-old spy ring, bureaucrats have
  9. always maintained the polite pretense that the organization
  10. didn't exist. Major also named Sir Colin McColl as the division's
  11. long-standing head. Britain's Who's Who currently lists the MI6
  12. chief as a counsellor in the Foreign and Commonwealth Office who
  13. enjoys cycling, tennis and the classics.
