have a phoney passport prepared. Informant had no further

information to report.

CONDON that LoUIs MANOCCHIO is in the Brooklyn, N. Y. area,

and he is talking about getting out of the area as the FBI

has been showing his picture.

SA CONDON advised that the security of this informant

would be jeopardized if MANOCCHIO should learn that the FBI is

aware of his concern of the FBI having pinned him down to an

area. Accordingly, New York is not going to be requested, again,

to conduct investigation other than that previously requested.

Informant advised FRANK VENDITUOLI is in Canada, but

informant does not know his actual location there.

On June 15, 1970, BS 942-CTE advised that a gambling

junket leit for puerto Rico around June 8, 1970, and on this

junket were several known hoodlums from the Rhode Island area.

During the plane trip to Puerto Rico, there was

conversation concerning

the whereabouts of "BABY SHANKS" MANOCCHIO

and someone said he was in Switzerland; furthermore, prior to

being a fugitive he had visited there on a couple of

occasions,

and indicated he liked it there very much.

On July 10 and 17, 1970, BS 1159-CTE advised

SA DENNIS M. CONDON that MANOCCHIO is in the Brooklyn, N. Y.

area and is hoping to leave the United States. FRANK VENDITUOLI

is still in Canada.

SA DENNIS M. CONDON advised that since the New York

Office is aware of the above information, additional leads

should not be restated for the protection of the informants:

On August 17, 1970, RICHARD ISRAEL, Assistant Attorney

General State of Rhode

Island, advised he received an anonymous

telephone call that "BABY SHANKS" has been visiting spots on

Federal Hill.

He was last seen on Saturday or Sunday in the

S&S Bar,. Atwells Ave., Providence, R. I., and he supposedly has

long shoulder length hair and wears dark glasses.

the call. It is to be

noted that the West Haven Motor Inn is
