In October 1965 our Prince George Detachment in British Columbia received information from a confi- dential source that the three captionally noted persons o met in the interior of British Columbia during September 23 to 25, 1965, using a hunting trip as a "cover". Ze According to information received, the two CAPOLINO brothers arrived in Prince George, B.C. in the pom. of September 16, 1965, via Canadian Pacific Airlines from Edmonton. They stayed in the Prince George Hotel during the night of September 16th and on either September 17th or 18th were flown by private plane (Northern Mountain Airlines Limited, Prince George, B.C.) to a hunting lodge on Warwa Lake in the interior of B.C. From Warwa Lake the CAPOLINOs then proceeded to Belcourt Lake, B.C., on September 23, 1965. When the CAPOLINOs and party arrived at Belcourt Lake, they were met by another aircraft which contained another hunter Ly hea and a big game guide named JohmyCALLIOU of Kelly Lake, (#@"@""* B.C. Investigation has indicated that the hunter waiting at Belcourt Lake may have been Samuel (Sam) MANNARINO of New Kensington, Pa. When the CAPOLINOs arrived, they. were warmly greeted by the hunter believed to be MANNARINO, These three persons then proceeded to remain in close company for one and a half days and were observed to engage in secret conversations, separate from other persons in the hunting party. The feeling was that. the f AEE INFORMATION CONTAINED 7 Gd \e2 REIN IS UNCLASSIFIED | 7 Als 9°? I pate /e/¢/e7—8V G7 B2 "  ENGLGee RT | \pocra: so30saih Bkge79 “

The CAPOLINO brothers and MANNARINO departed company on the morning of September 25th when they continued on their separate ways to hunt big game. PAR et 3. Investigation in B.Qy, revealed that Sam MANNARINO Fhe op oe: of New Kensington, Pa., Albert AHANNA of New. Kensington,) Pavy °° and Dr. D-H SCHUTA HE of Road.#2,.Leidberg,..B.C, hunting in the interior of B.C. during the periodvin-< * question and were guided by Johnn YCALLIOU -Fitrthermore, the CAPOLINOs were overheard to meAtion that the man they met at Belcourt Lake was caught in the Apalachin Mountains during a Mafia meeting. This, therefore, led our investi- gators to believe that the hunter met by the CAPOLINOs was Samuel MANNARINO. ny WEE he Our records indicate that Samuel MANNARINO is subject of your FBI #115840, born 1-dan-06, Pittsburgh, Pa. MANNARINOts last known address was 20] Highland ~ Avenue, New Kensington, Pa., and his brother Gabriel MANNARINO, born 31-Oct-16, New Kensington, Pa., was an Apalachin delegate. Gabriel MANNARINO is subject of your 4 FBI #854-850, our FPS #889382. Samuel MANNARINO, you will recall, was arrested by your Department in connection with the Brockville Bank and Trust Company robbery in 1959-60. 5 The following particulars were obtained on the CAPOLINO brothers: - 1) LIlando CAPOLINO - born about 1923. . Address - -2265-82nd Street, Brooklyn, N.Y. 11214. - Description: 250 lbs., stocky build, black hair, . dark complexion. ~ 2) Guido CAPOLINO - born about 1930. Address - 1143-78th Street, Brooklyn, N.Y. 11228. Description: 185 lbs., black hair, dark complexion. The CAPOLINO brothers claim to be principals in Capolina Sons Incorporated, Lathing and Plastering . Contractors, 8005-3rd Avenue, Brooklyn 9, New York, phone no, BE8-3474. 6. Investigation on the CAPOLINO brothers revealed that they previously hunted in the interior of British Columbia in 1964. It was also learned that in 1964 they were in search of property in B.C. in order that they might escape the influence of the Mafia in the United States. ae ia © 9-167 | pDocId: 32304410 Page 4
7. During the present hunting trip in the interior of British Columbia, the CAPOLINOs became very provocative to their guide and refused at first to pay him. When the guide threatened the CAPOLINOs that he would go to the olice, they subsequently paid him with a cheque for $2, 200,00 drawn on a Canadian bank in Toronto. Enquiries are presently underway to obtain further particulars on the cheque issued by the CAPOLINOs, The CAPOLINOs left the interior of B.C. on or about October 7, 1965. 8. We would appreciate any background information you may be able to obtain on the following persons: - 1) TIlando CAPOLINO 2) Guido CAPOLINO 3) Samuel MANNARINO 4) Albert HANNA 5) Dr. D-H. SCHUMAHER 9. We are enclosing four copies of a coloured photo- graph taken of the CAPOLINO brothers at Warwa Lake in September 1965.
