tne peepnoie":
The gin runmy games at the Friar's Club are
played on a partnership basis of four men and played what is
referred to as "head-to-head". By this, it is meant that
two players using one deck play against each other and the
other two players Q? likeuise. at the end of the game, the
total scores of the partrers are compared with the total
scores of the opposition. The gin runny games at the
Friaris Club are played from a ¢l.0G a point on up. It is
believed that the individual the "peephole" transmits
information to the partner that he is assisting by telling
him what cards to discard. The players who are being
assisted by the individual in the'peephole will place the
card that he intends to discard on the right, and if this
is not the proper discard, he will receive a signal from
the individual in the "peephole". The player will then move
another card to the "gbt and this procedure follows until
he has the proper discard. When it is impossible for the
individual in the "peephole" to observe his partner's cards,
he will transmit a signal telling what pairs the opposition
holds. He transmits this signal by a pre-arranged code
indicating that one signal is for kings, two for a.pair
of queens, etc.

l Assistant U.S. Attorney NISSEN advised at this
time he was not issuing a subpoena for JOHN ROSELLI inasmuch
as it is his belief that ROSELLI "parading up and down the
corridor would tend to cause witnesses to be hesitant
to furnish information to the Federal Grand Jury. He
stated that if information is developed which would be
indueive to prosecution, that he will thereafter issue a
subpoena to ROSELLI as well as other members of the Frier's
Club who were in attendence during gin rummy games and also
individuals who participated in these games.

which is in the rear center of the room. To eacn sioe of
the stage are two separate rooms approximately IQ by 14.
Adjoining the large dining room is a gambling room consisting
of approximately twenty gambling tables which is on the
right side of the dining room and stage. The gambling
room is separated by an electric partition which is
closed when members are playing cards and is open for
large benefits.
an examination was made of the small room to the
right of the stage and it was noted from observation that
attached to the ceiling was a public address speaker and
adjoining the speaker was a small a 5 by 8 vent. This area
was examined in the attic over this small room and it was
noted that the vent was covered by a small steel removable
cover. The speaker was cemented in permanently. The
steel covering for the vent was removed and it was noted
that an observance could be made through the vent which
clearly showed cards being hel§e!'by individual players.
Photographs of the vent and of an individual holding
cards were taken.
Approximately ten feet from this vent was a
small 2H by 2H opening which separated a partition between
the attic of the small room and the attic over the gambling
room. Entry was made to the attic through this partition
and it was noted that there were similar circuit plugs female pl:
of the two insert type attached to the ceiling of the
second floor. The first female plug was located approximately
ten feet from the opening between the partition and
approximately H1 inches from the wall facing the street.

that it was covered by an installation consisting of
paper over paper enclosing a cotton like material: Upon
lifting this, there was noted a small circular plug
approximately two inches.in diameter and upon lifting
this plug a small oval glass which appeared to be a
prescription lens! was noted. Below the glass, a small
oblong type hole was observed. Looking through the
lens through the small oblong hole, observation could be
made of the gambling tables directly below this hole.
Further examination reflected six additional plugs in the
crawl way. Each plus was removed and photographs were
obtained. From observation, it was noted that each
plug covered e small oblong hole. By looking through this
small hole, gambling tables below could be observed.
The second entry on the roof is the same type of
entry as previously described with the exception it is
approximately fourteen inches by fourteen inches. Upon
mtering this opening, a small crawl way was noted and upon
examination, it was determined that two additional circular
plugs as previously described were observed. Each of these
plugs contained a small oblong hole behind the plug. By
looking through the hole, the gambling tables which are in

Records of the Bureau of Vital Statistics,
Cook County, Chicago, Illinois, reflected that in 1936,
JOHN ROSELLI, FBI Number 3339986, filed a report of
birth claiming his date of birth as July U, 190R, in
Chicago. To support the report of birth, he filed
an affidavit signed by an individual who stated that he
had personal knowledge that ROSELLI was born in Chicago,
Illinois, on the date stated. Investigation has
disclosed that the signature on the affidavit is a forgery
and that the individual named was not a relative of ROSELLI's
and according to information received, this individual, in
all probability, was not acquainted with ROSELLI.
ROSELLI, who has FBI Number 3339986, was arrested
in Los Angeles in 1926 and since that time has had numerous
arrests for grand larceny, suspicion of robbery, carrying
e deadly weapon, disturbing the peace. In all the above
instances, the charges were either dismissed or a small
fine levied against ROSELLI.
_ In l9h3 ROSELL1 was convicted in United States
District Court, New York City, on a conspiracy charge to
extort money from various motion picture officials and to
defraud a labor union. Convicted with ROSELLI were
well known iminal figures from Chicago, Illinois, namely,c LOUIS ca:-xmszm, PAUL as LUCIA, PHIL D'ANDREA,
cmspss clozéi 1-JILLIAI-I BIOFF, and others.
ROSELLI was sentenced to ten years imprisonment and was
released in 1946 after serving one third of his sentence.
Since his release from prison, ROSELLI's income
has been derived through various investments and finder*s
fees for assisting others in arranging business transactions

O0: LOS ANGELES
Re Bureau letter to U. S. Marshal, Los Angeles,
1/11/68, regarding fingerprints of "JOHN ROSSELLI,# 9053-24465 !, 12/21/67. Conspiracy; Anti-Racketeering."
For information of Identification Division, JOHN
ROSELLI was indicted 12/21/67, by Federal Grand Jury, Los
Angeles, and surrendered to the U. S. Marshal, Los Angeles
the same date. JOHN ROSELLI has FBI No. 3339986.
ROSELLI is a prominent hoodlum figure in the
Los Angeles and Chicago areas and is a long-time and high-
ranking "member" of the Chicago "family" of La Cosa Nostra.
ROSELLI has been extremely uncooperative with law enforcement
and will use any opportunity to embarrass law enforcement.
The Los Angeles Office contacted the U. S.
Marshal's office, Los Angeles, on l/16/68, with regard to .
this matter and they did not, as a matter of policy, call
anyone into their office to take a second set of fingerprin
The U. S. Marshal's office said they intended to return
the fingerprints to the Identification Division with a
notation as to the FBI Number of ROSELLI in the event the
identification can be made when compared with known
fingerprints of ROSELLI on file in the Identification
Division.
In view of the above, no further action is beingtaken by the Los Angeles Office. 1!
