Re: Bureau airtel to Seattle, 5/17/72.

Pursuant to instructions contained in referenced airtel, an extensive file review of captioned case was conducted by the writers from May 22 - 26, 1972. Among files reviewed were main volumes, numbers 1-47, subfiles designated for a particular area of interest, i.e. parachutes, witnesses, course; I-A volumes and numerous suspect sub- files. In addition, physical evidence as available was reviewed for pertinent investigative leads.

Information set forth following the file review has been arranged according to the headings used in the table of contents found in the report of SA CHARLES E. FARRELL, dated February 16, 1972, with the exception of a brief hijacker profile.

PHYSICAL EVIDENCE

Black Snap-On Tie and Tie Tack

An examination of the tie by the writers revealed noticeable amounts of dust lodged in the inner knot area. In addition to the markings "3 Penneys",two other labels were found as follows: "Snapper Pat. 2972750. It's a snap to snap on"; and "100% Dacron Polyester Washable RN 16484". From writers' experience in Theft From Interstate Shipment cases involving Penneys merchandise, it is known that the RN number is a manufacturer's code. Penneys headquarters will be able to determine where the tie was manufactured, when imported and which stores sold this tie.
