Attached is a brochure of the Town House Motel in Lafayette, Louisiana. Mr. MOORE has advised that MARCELLO always requests Unit 104 or some similar unit when he is alone. If MARCELLO is accompanied by his ' wife and daughter, he requests Units 120 and 121 or Units 375 and 377. Mr. MOORE has advised that whenever he makes accommodations available to MARCELLO he will either give us adjacent accommodations or accommodations near MARCELLO's accommodations. In connection with this matter, the following equipment is requested: 1. Mutt radio microphones installed in the lamps, which will be forwarded to the Laboratory under separate cover. In the event the Laboratory is not in a position to install Mutts in the lamp bases, sockets, or elsewhere on the lamp, it is requested that the Laboratory furnish this office with two Wasp plugs and installation will be made by this office when needed. For the infor- mation of the Laboratory, in the event the glass parts of the lamps are broken, replacements are available. .It is pointed out that the purple lamp is utilized on a table in the immediate vicinity of a’ couch and lounge chair in the room at the motel and the grey lamp is utilized on a table between two beds next to the telephone. It is believed that in the event the adjacent room is not available when it is needed, it is felt that equipment, as: noted above, will provide coverage of the conversation in the motel room. | 2. <A Vega Receiver for use in monitoring the above-mentioned equipment. 3.
