JOHN

ROSELLI, aka

AR

LA 4396-C* advised ROSSELLI has not been at his

Los Angeles apartment on 4/17, 18 or 19/63. Fisur has dis-

closed that his car has been parked in the

garage at his

apartment during the past three days. The Las Vegas Office

has been requested to ascertain 1f he is in that city.

LA 4268-C advised that ROSSELLI was not at the

Friar's Club in Beverly Hills on 4/17/63.

On 4/17/63 this

source engaged in conversation with MORRIE SUESS (phonetic)

and MATTIE GORDANO (phonetic) who source knew as the former

maltre de at La Scala Restaurant in Beverly H1lls. SUESS

related that he had a movie script which concerned the story

of a priest in Italy.

He said he had discussed this script

with ROSSELLI and ROSSELLI told DUEsS to bring the script

to him when he had it in final form and he would look it

over.

GORDANO (phonetic) then remarked that ROSSELLI

"comes from the same town my parents come from -- a small

town outside of Naples called Avellino."

SUESS and LA 4268-6

then remarked that they thought ROSSELLI was born in Chicago.

There upon GORDANO said nothing more concerning this matter.

on 4/19/63 GEAN LEON, owner of La Scala Restaurant,

and a former top echelon informant (of the Los Angeles Office)

advised that

MATTY GIORDANO, aka Mathew Michael Jordan,

Matty Action, was formerly employed by him, LEON, as a waiter.

He advised that MATTY GIORDANO, on an occasion within the

past couple of years when ROSSELLI was at La Scala Restaurant

stated that ROSSELLI was born in the same town, Avellino, as

were his, GIORDANO's parents and that ROSSELLI 1s not his

true name.

GIORDANO mentioned ROSSELLI's true name to LEON

but LEON does not remember 1t.

Italian name that had "rhythm."

prior to contemplated interview of GIORDANO's
