spoke to his son came en- route.

"He said he's been in more
automobile trunks than he's
ever seen in his life," the elder
Sinatra said. 81 understand that
to mean that they transported
him in trunks"
Jack Entratter, a Las Vegas
nightclub owner and longtime
friend Of Sinatra, said in Reno
that there was a good reason
TO believe police would round
up all the kidnaperS Thursday.
Sinatra said he had done
most Of the talking to the kid
napers. He said the money was
left in a piece Of luggage at
the us. veterans hospital on
Wiltshire Boulevard, not
far from where the Sinatra
home is located.
Frank Jr. was picked up by
a private patrolman, George c.
Jones, so, who found the youth
walking along a nearby Beverly
Hills street and took him to his
mothers house in the trunk Of
his car.
AS he drove by the hordeS Of
newsmen waiting outside the
home he said, ANY news yet,

youngster on to his family.

Jones said he talked to Sinat-

quoted the youth as saying he
thought they were amateurs.
He said the singer told him he
was blindfolded most Of the
time and was forced to take
sleeping pills to keep him grog-
gy.
He was scared at first"
Jones said Of Sinatra's first few
hours with the kidnapers, "but
later frankie said they were
more scared than | was"
Zone fellow chickened out and
ran off," the patrolman quoted
the youth as saying.

derway.
Work toward development of
the centers, through monetary
assistance, began in Fiscal Year
1862 in the then Division of Gen.
eral Medical Sciences and was
transferred to DRFR. AS of Oc-

cheering center had been acti-
waited.
One of the established centers
has already demonstrated the
effectiveness of the cOmputer
not only in the research projects
of the medical center of the uni

also i'm those of several other in
situations which, through coop
erative arrangement with the
center, have used the cOmputer
in their own research.
AS more scientists become
aware of the potential of COM

and facilitating Investigations
into problems once considered
either too difficult or without
solution, demand for computer
centers is expected to grow.
