PINELLI (Top Hoodlum, Los Angeles Office), reportedly met this subject at Los Angeles Airport on 1/15/53. _ LA 3680-CS, who has in the past furnished considerable information concerning hoodlums and petty racketeers in Glendale, California, and vicinit advised on 3/7/58 that he does not know FRANK FERRARO but that he recalls a FRANK SORTINO, who may be identical, and who, with his wife, VICTORIA, ran - the Tom Tom Bar in Glendale, California, a few years ago. IA 3680-CS had no- current information about SORTINO. On 3/7/58 Detective Sergeant JOHN BROOM and Detective WILLIAM STENBERG, Glendale Police Department, furnished information that FRANK SORTINO is no longer at the Tom Tom Bar but has a brother, THOMAS SORTINO, who runs a bike shop on-Glendale Avenue just below Monterey in Glendale together with his wife, MARGE SORTINO. Detective STENBERG stated that he has had frequent contact with THOMAS SORTINO and MARGE SORTINO and considers them to be reliable persons who could be trusted to furnish truthful informa- tion. SA ROBERT CLARK STONE, on 3/14/58, checked all available Glendale directories and was unable to find any reference to FRANK FERRARO. There was no reference to FRANK SORTINO since 1953. The 1953 directory showed that FRANK and VICTORIA SORTINO ran the Tom Tom Bar and lived in the City « of Los Angeles. It did not show their residence address. A residence for THOMAS G. SORTINO was reflected as 1311 Oak Circle Drive, Glendale, in 1957. % é “Sha, 4, % ae Detective Sergeant BROOM was recontacted on 3/14/58, /at which time he said that he had obtained information that FRANK SORTINO has opened a liquor store in a supermarket somewhere in Arcadia, California. .

SCAMGEL M, GIANCANA. On June 17, 1959, Tony Horton, Potential Criminal Informant, advised that he has reason to believe that Giancana and other syndicate members are attempting to corner the bail bond business in Chicago and other large cities. In this connection, Horton was contacted by Mike Brodkin, a syndicate lawyer in Chicago, in order to feel out his, the informant's, attitude toward allowing the outfit to take over the bonding business of the colored section in Chicago. In order to do this, it would ,»become necessary for Giancana to visit with Ed and GeorgséJones, jhe | former - Negro policy wheel operators on Chicago's South Side,, who are now in Mexico City. The informant said that the son of an Italian hoodlum, whose name he, gannot recall, has recently spent some time with Ed ones, in Mexico. According to the informant, Jones has been to | ke “Switzerland on freguent occasions, but he does not know for what reason. oo ‘SUBJECT SHOULD BE CONSIDERED’ ARMED AND DANGEROUS. ; J s | Docld: 323507312 Page 3 a STREET tn, > mato cesta cere oy
