RE: SUSPECT NORMAN KARL ALLEN

Chief of Police NICK GIARDINO, Bellevue, Washington, called on November 28, 1971. He said he had a source whom he could not disclose who said that the drawing appearing in today's paper looked very much like NORMAN KARL ALLEN. ALLEN allegedly left Seattle about three weeks ago for Mexico City. Source has not heard from him since. He was formerly a chemist at the University of Washington where his employer died and he quit his job. Source has no information of any skill at jumping or airplanes or anything of that nature but says that suspect looks very much like the drawing. GIARDINO said he would question source further in regard to the possi- bility of obtaining a photograph and Agent handling this lead should check with GIARDINO.
