o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

Re San Francisco airtel 11169

On 12069 a telephone call was placed to 10~9 Keith Avenue Berkeley Calif where-ALBERT had been livingbull i An unknown woman answered and said that ALBERT no longe~ was living there and was very vague and evasive about when he had moved out and where he was currently living She advised that she could not gat a message to him and had no telephonenumber for him although she knew that he was living in Berkeley

A call was then placed to the office of the ffBerkeley Barb for whom ALBERT is a writer and ALBERT was not there ~t the time Agents requested that the unknown man take a message for ALBERT and have him oall a number which was that of the Berkeley RA When the unknown man was given the Agents names he said middotYoure FBI Agents arentt you Agents replied in the affirmative Unknown man then said Ill give him the message but I dont think hetll return your call He did not give the address or teleshyphone number at which ALBERT could be reached

It is noted that frequent telephone contacts have been made to ALBERT last address since 1969 but there was either no answer Or persons acceping the call said ALBERT was

i out of town

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

Re Chicago airtel to Bureau 121768 with copies to San Francisco and New York

It is noted that ALBERT has been interviewed on three occasions concerning the activities surrounding the Democratic National Convention In each of the interviews ALBERT wa~ quite aware that he was the subject of an ~~L investigation and the only direct answers he gave were ne~ative and self serving All other answers were of a genera nature

ALBERl has not been cordial in these interviews and g~udeingly submits to them Anytime the questioning takes a turn that he doesnrt like he will then start makinfl flippant and provocative remarks obviously designed to goad the interviewing agents When his wife is she is very hostile and has refused questions even concerning her identity Keith Avenue Eerkeley is an unidentified woman and an past interviews there have been other people in the and

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

On 12069 a telephone call was placed to 10~9 Keith Avenue Berkeley Calif where-ALBERT had been livingbull i An unknown woman answered and said that ALBERT no longe~ was living there and was very vague and evasive about when he had moved out and where he was currently living She advised that she could not gat a message to him and had no telephonenumber for him although she knew that he was living in Berkeley

A call was then placed to the office of the ffBerkeley Barb for whom ALBERT is a writer and ALBERT was not there ~t the time Agents requested that the unknown man take a message for ALBERT and have him oall a number which was that of the Berkeley RA When the unknown man was given the Agents names he said middotYoure FBI Agents arentt you Agents replied in the affirmative Unknown man then said Ill give him the message but I dont think hetll return your call He did not give the address or teleshyphone number at which ALBERT could be reached

It is noted that frequent telephone contacts have been made to ALBERT last address since 1969 but there was either no answer Or persons acceping the call said ALBERT was

i out of town

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

It is noted that ALBERT has been interviewed on three occasions concerning the activities surrounding the Democratic National Convention In each of the interviews ALBERT wa~ quite aware that he was the subject of an ~~L investigation and the only direct answers he gave were ne~ative and self serving All other answers were of a genera nature

ALBERl has not been cordial in these interviews and g~udeingly submits to them Anytime the questioning takes a turn that he doesnrt like he will then start makinfl flippant and provocative remarks obviously designed to goad the interviewing agents When his wife is she is very hostile and has refused questions even concerning her identity Keith Avenue Eerkeley is an unidentified woman and an past interviews there have been other people in the and

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

A call was then placed to the office of the ffBerkeley Barb for whom ALBERT is a writer and ALBERT was not there ~t the time Agents requested that the unknown man take a message for ALBERT and have him oall a number which was that of the Berkeley RA When the unknown man was given the Agents names he said middotYoure FBI Agents arentt you Agents replied in the affirmative Unknown man then said Ill give him the message but I dont think hetll return your call He did not give the address or teleshyphone number at which ALBERT could be reached

It is noted that frequent telephone contacts have been made to ALBERT last address since 1969 but there was either no answer Or persons acceping the call said ALBERT was

i out of town

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

It is noted that ALBERT has been interviewed on three occasions concerning the activities surrounding the Democratic National Convention In each of the interviews ALBERT wa~ quite aware that he was the subject of an ~~L investigation and the only direct answers he gave were ne~ative and self serving All other answers were of a genera nature

ALBERl has not been cordial in these interviews and g~udeingly submits to them Anytime the questioning takes a turn that he doesnrt like he will then start makinfl flippant and provocative remarks obviously designed to goad the interviewing agents When his wife is she is very hostile and has refused questions even concerning her identity Keith Avenue Eerkeley is an unidentified woman and an past interviews there have been other people in the and

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

A call was then placed to the office of the ffBerkeley Barb for whom ALBERT is a writer and ALBERT was not there ~t the time Agents requested that the unknown man take a message for ALBERT and have him oall a number which was that of the Berkeley RA When the unknown man was given the Agents names he said middotYoure FBI Agents arentt you Agents replied in the affirmative Unknown man then said Ill give him the message but I dont think hetll return your call He did not give the address or teleshyphone number at which ALBERT could be reached

It is noted that frequent telephone contacts have been made to ALBERT last address since 1969 but there was either no answer Or persons acceping the call said ALBERT was

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

December 2 1968 1-lt j~ ~ -shytt (z STEWART LDWARD ALBERT1

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

ALBERl has not been cordial in these interviews and g~udeingly submits to them Anytime the questioning takes a turn that he doesnrt like he will then start makinfl flippant and provocative remarks obviously designed to goad the interviewing agents When his wife is she is very hostile and has refused questions even concerning her identity Keith Avenue Eerkeley is an unidentified woman and an past interviews there have been other people in the and

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

December 2 1968 1-lt j~ ~ -shytt (z STEWART LDWARD ALBERT1

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

December 2 1968 1-lt j~ ~ -shytt (z STEWART LDWARD ALBERT1

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

December 2 1968 1-lt j~ ~ -shytt (z STEWART LDWARD ALBERT1

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

ALBERl has not been cordial in these interviews and g~udeingly submits to them Anytime the questioning takes a turn that he doesnrt like he will then start makinfl flippant and provocative remarks obviously designed to goad the interviewing agents When his wife is she is very hostile and has refused questions even concerning her identity Keith Avenue Eerkeley is an unidentified woman and an past interviews there have been other people in the and

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

It is noted that ALBERT has been interviewed on three occasions concerning the activities surrounding the Democratic National Convention In each of the interviews ALBERT wa~ quite aware that he was the subject of an ~~L investigation and the only direct answers he gave were ne~ative and self serving All other answers were of a genera nature

ALBERl has not been cordial in these interviews and g~udeingly submits to them Anytime the questioning takes a turn that he doesnrt like he will then start makinfl flippant and provocative remarks obviously designed to goad the interviewing agents When his wife is she is very hostile and has refused questions even concerning her identity Keith Avenue Eerkeley is an unidentified woman and an past interviews there have been other people in the and

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

A call was then placed to the office of the ffBerkeley Barb for whom ALBERT is a writer and ALBERT was not there ~t the time Agents requested that the unknown man take a message for ALBERT and have him oall a number which was that of the Berkeley RA When the unknown man was given the Agents names he said middotYoure FBI Agents arentt you Agents replied in the affirmative Unknown man then said Ill give him the message but I dont think hetll return your call He did not give the address or teleshyphone number at which ALBERT could be reached

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

Re Chicago airtel to Bureau 121768 with copies to San Francisco and New York

It is noted that ALBERT has been interviewed on three occasions concerning the activities surrounding the Democratic National Convention In each of the interviews ALBERT wa~ quite aware that he was the subject of an ~~L investigation and the only direct answers he gave were ne~ative and self serving All other answers were of a genera nature

ALBERl has not been cordial in these interviews and g~udeingly submits to them Anytime the questioning takes a turn that he doesnrt like he will then start makinfl flippant and provocative remarks obviously designed to goad the interviewing agents When his wife is she is very hostile and has refused questions even concerning her identity Keith Avenue Eerkeley is an unidentified woman and an past interviews there have been other people in the and

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

On 12069 a telephone call was placed to 10~9 Keith Avenue Berkeley Calif where-ALBERT had been livingbull i An unknown woman answered and said that ALBERT no longe~ was living there and was very vague and evasive about when he had moved out and where he was currently living She advised that she could not gat a message to him and had no telephonenumber for him although she knew that he was living in Berkeley

A call was then placed to the office of the ffBerkeley Barb for whom ALBERT is a writer and ALBERT was not there ~t the time Agents requested that the unknown man take a message for ALBERT and have him oall a number which was that of the Berkeley RA When the unknown man was given the Agents names he said middotYoure FBI Agents arentt you Agents replied in the affirmative Unknown man then said Ill give him the message but I dont think hetll return your call He did not give the address or teleshyphone number at which ALBERT could be reached

It is noted that frequent telephone contacts have been made to ALBERT last address since 1969 but there was either no answer Or persons acceping the call said ALBERT was

i out of town

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

Re San Francisco airtel 11169

On 12069 a telephone call was placed to 10~9 Keith Avenue Berkeley Calif where-ALBERT had been livingbull i An unknown woman answered and said that ALBERT no longe~ was living there and was very vague and evasive about when he had moved out and where he was currently living She advised that she could not gat a message to him and had no telephonenumber for him although she knew that he was living in Berkeley

A call was then placed to the office of the ffBerkeley Barb for whom ALBERT is a writer and ALBERT was not there ~t the time Agents requested that the unknown man take a message for ALBERT and have him oall a number which was that of the Berkeley RA When the unknown man was given the Agents names he said middotYoure FBI Agents arentt you Agents replied in the affirmative Unknown man then said Ill give him the message but I dont think hetll return your call He did not give the address or teleshyphone number at which ALBERT could be reached

oJfice Cox-d contain-ad no fOrwarding address for STEWART ALBERT

It is noted that frequent telephone contacts have been made to ALBERT last address since 1969 but there was either no answer Or persons acceping the call said ALBERT was

i out of town

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

It is noted that ALBERT has been interviewed on three occasions concerning the activities surrounding the Democratic National Convention In each of the interviews ALBERT wa~ quite aware that he was the subject of an ~~L investigation and the only direct answers he gave were ne~ative and self serving All other answers were of a genera nature

ALBERl has not been cordial in these interviews and g~udeingly submits to them Anytime the questioning takes a turn that he doesnrt like he will then start makinfl flippant and provocative remarks obviously designed to goad the interviewing agents When his wife is she is very hostile and has refused questions even concerning her identity Keith Avenue Eerkeley is an unidentified woman and an past interviews there have been other people in the and

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

A call was then placed to the office of the ffBerkeley Barb for whom ALBERT is a writer and ALBERT was not there ~t the time Agents requested that the unknown man take a message for ALBERT and have him oall a number which was that of the Berkeley RA When the unknown man was given the Agents names he said middotYoure FBI Agents arentt you Agents replied in the affirmative Unknown man then said Ill give him the message but I dont think hetll return your call He did not give the address or teleshyphone number at which ALBERT could be reached

It is noted that frequent telephone contacts have been made to ALBERT last address since 1969 but there was either no answer Or persons acceping the call said ALBERT was

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

Re San Francisco airtel 11169

On 12069 a telephone call was placed to 10~9 Keith Avenue Berkeley Calif where-ALBERT had been livingbull i An unknown woman answered and said that ALBERT no longe~ was living there and was very vague and evasive about when he had moved out and where he was currently living She advised that she could not gat a message to him and had no telephonenumber for him although she knew that he was living in Berkeley

A call was then placed to the office of the ffBerkeley Barb for whom ALBERT is a writer and ALBERT was not there ~t the time Agents requested that the unknown man take a message for ALBERT and have him oall a number which was that of the Berkeley RA When the unknown man was given the Agents names he said middotYoure FBI Agents arentt you Agents replied in the affirmative Unknown man then said Ill give him the message but I dont think hetll return your call He did not give the address or teleshyphone number at which ALBERT could be reached

oJfice Cox-d contain-ad no fOrwarding address for STEWART ALBERT

It is noted that frequent telephone contacts have been made to ALBERT last address since 1969 but there was either no answer Or persons acceping the call said ALBERT was

i out of town

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

December 2 1968 1-lt j~ ~ -shytt (z STEWART LDWARD ALBERT1

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

It is noted that ALBERT has been interviewed on three occasions concerning the activities surrounding the Democratic National Convention In each of the interviews ALBERT wa~ quite aware that he was the subject of an ~~L investigation and the only direct answers he gave were ne~ative and self serving All other answers were of a genera nature

ALBERl has not been cordial in these interviews and g~udeingly submits to them Anytime the questioning takes a turn that he doesnrt like he will then start makinfl flippant and provocative remarks obviously designed to goad the interviewing agents When his wife is she is very hostile and has refused questions even concerning her identity Keith Avenue Eerkeley is an unidentified woman and an past interviews there have been other people in the and

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

interviews with ALBERT can

middot bull 1 bull

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

Re San Francisco airtel 11169

On 12069 a telephone call was placed to 10~9 Keith Avenue Berkeley Calif where-ALBERT had been livingbull i An unknown woman answered and said that ALBERT no longe~ was living there and was very vague and evasive about when he had moved out and where he was currently living She advised that she could not gat a message to him and had no telephonenumber for him although she knew that he was living in Berkeley

A call was then placed to the office of the ffBerkeley Barb for whom ALBERT is a writer and ALBERT was not there ~t the time Agents requested that the unknown man take a message for ALBERT and have him oall a number which was that of the Berkeley RA When the unknown man was given the Agents names he said middotYoure FBI Agents arentt you Agents replied in the affirmative Unknown man then said Ill give him the message but I dont think hetll return your call He did not give the address or teleshyphone number at which ALBERT could be reached

oJfice Cox-d contain-ad no fOrwarding address for STEWART ALBERT

It is noted that frequent telephone contacts have been made to ALBERT last address since 1969 but there was either no answer Or persons acceping the call said ALBERT was

i out of town

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

December 2 1968 1-lt j~ ~ -shytt (z STEWART LDWARD ALBERT1

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

It is noted that ALBERT has been interviewed on three occasions concerning the activities surrounding the Democratic National Convention In each of the interviews ALBERT wa~ quite aware that he was the subject of an ~~L investigation and the only direct answers he gave were ne~ative and self serving All other answers were of a genera nature

ALBERl has not been cordial in these interviews and g~udeingly submits to them Anytime the questioning takes a turn that he doesnrt like he will then start makinfl flippant and provocative remarks obviously designed to goad the interviewing agents When his wife is she is very hostile and has refused questions even concerning her identity Keith Avenue Eerkeley is an unidentified woman and an past interviews there have been other people in the and

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

Re San Francisco airtel 11169

On 12069 a telephone call was placed to 10~9 Keith Avenue Berkeley Calif where-ALBERT had been livingbull i An unknown woman answered and said that ALBERT no longe~ was living there and was very vague and evasive about when he had moved out and where he was currently living She advised that she could not gat a message to him and had no telephonenumber for him although she knew that he was living in Berkeley

A call was then placed to the office of the ffBerkeley Barb for whom ALBERT is a writer and ALBERT was not there ~t the time Agents requested that the unknown man take a message for ALBERT and have him oall a number which was that of the Berkeley RA When the unknown man was given the Agents names he said middotYoure FBI Agents arentt you Agents replied in the affirmative Unknown man then said Ill give him the message but I dont think hetll return your call He did not give the address or teleshyphone number at which ALBERT could be reached

It is noted that frequent telephone contacts have been made to ALBERT last address since 1969 but there was either no answer Or persons acceping the call said ALBERT was

i out of town

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

It is noted that ALBERT has been interviewed on three occasions concerning the activities surrounding the Democratic National Convention In each of the interviews ALBERT wa~ quite aware that he was the subject of an ~~L investigation and the only direct answers he gave were ne~ative and self serving All other answers were of a genera nature

ALBERl has not been cordial in these interviews and g~udeingly submits to them Anytime the questioning takes a turn that he doesnrt like he will then start makinfl flippant and provocative remarks obviously designed to goad the interviewing agents When his wife is she is very hostile and has refused questions even concerning her identity Keith Avenue Eerkeley is an unidentified woman and an past interviews there have been other people in the and

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

A call was then placed to the office of the ffBerkeley Barb for whom ALBERT is a writer and ALBERT was not there ~t the time Agents requested that the unknown man take a message for ALBERT and have him oall a number which was that of the Berkeley RA When the unknown man was given the Agents names he said middotYoure FBI Agents arentt you Agents replied in the affirmative Unknown man then said Ill give him the message but I dont think hetll return your call He did not give the address or teleshyphone number at which ALBERT could be reached

It is noted that frequent telephone contacts have been made to ALBERT last address since 1969 but there was either no answer Or persons acceping the call said ALBERT was

i out of town

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

December 2 1968 1-lt j~ ~ -shytt (z STEWART LDWARD ALBERT1

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

Re San Francisco airtel 11169

On 12069 a telephone call was placed to 10~9 Keith Avenue Berkeley Calif where-ALBERT had been livingbull i An unknown woman answered and said that ALBERT no longe~ was living there and was very vague and evasive about when he had moved out and where he was currently living She advised that she could not gat a message to him and had no telephonenumber for him although she knew that he was living in Berkeley

A call was then placed to the office of the ffBerkeley Barb for whom ALBERT is a writer and ALBERT was not there ~t the time Agents requested that the unknown man take a message for ALBERT and have him oall a number which was that of the Berkeley RA When the unknown man was given the Agents names he said middotYoure FBI Agents arentt you Agents replied in the affirmative Unknown man then said Ill give him the message but I dont think hetll return your call He did not give the address or teleshyphone number at which ALBERT could be reached

It is noted that frequent telephone contacts have been made to ALBERT last address since 1969 but there was either no answer Or persons acceping the call said ALBERT was

i out of town

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

Re Chicago airtel to Bureau 121768 with copies to San Francisco and New York

It is noted that ALBERT has been interviewed on three occasions concerning the activities surrounding the Democratic National Convention In each of the interviews ALBERT wa~ quite aware that he was the subject of an ~~L investigation and the only direct answers he gave were ne~ative and self serving All other answers were of a genera nature

ALBERl has not been cordial in these interviews and g~udeingly submits to them Anytime the questioning takes a turn that he doesnrt like he will then start makinfl flippant and provocative remarks obviously designed to goad the interviewing agents When his wife is she is very hostile and has refused questions even concerning her identity Keith Avenue Eerkeley is an unidentified woman and an past interviews there have been other people in the and

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

On 12069 a telephone call was placed to 10~9 Keith Avenue Berkeley Calif where-ALBERT had been livingbull i An unknown woman answered and said that ALBERT no longe~ was living there and was very vague and evasive about when he had moved out and where he was currently living She advised that she could not gat a message to him and had no telephonenumber for him although she knew that he was living in Berkeley

A call was then placed to the office of the ffBerkeley Barb for whom ALBERT is a writer and ALBERT was not there ~t the time Agents requested that the unknown man take a message for ALBERT and have him oall a number which was that of the Berkeley RA When the unknown man was given the Agents names he said middotYoure FBI Agents arentt you Agents replied in the affirmative Unknown man then said Ill give him the message but I dont think hetll return your call He did not give the address or teleshyphone number at which ALBERT could be reached

It is noted that frequent telephone contacts have been made to ALBERT last address since 1969 but there was either no answer Or persons acceping the call said ALBERT was

i out of town

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

It is noted that ALBERT has been interviewed on three occasions concerning the activities surrounding the Democratic National Convention In each of the interviews ALBERT wa~ quite aware that he was the subject of an ~~L investigation and the only direct answers he gave were ne~ative and self serving All other answers were of a genera nature

ALBERl has not been cordial in these interviews and g~udeingly submits to them Anytime the questioning takes a turn that he doesnrt like he will then start makinfl flippant and provocative remarks obviously designed to goad the interviewing agents When his wife is she is very hostile and has refused questions even concerning her identity Keith Avenue Eerkeley is an unidentified woman and an past interviews there have been other people in the and

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

A call was then placed to the office of the ffBerkeley Barb for whom ALBERT is a writer and ALBERT was not there ~t the time Agents requested that the unknown man take a message for ALBERT and have him oall a number which was that of the Berkeley RA When the unknown man was given the Agents names he said middotYoure FBI Agents arentt you Agents replied in the affirmative Unknown man then said Ill give him the message but I dont think hetll return your call He did not give the address or teleshyphone number at which ALBERT could be reached

It is noted that frequent telephone contacts have been made to ALBERT last address since 1969 but there was either no answer Or persons acceping the call said ALBERT was

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

ALBERl has not been cordial in these interviews and g~udeingly submits to them Anytime the questioning takes a turn that he doesnrt like he will then start makinfl flippant and provocative remarks obviously designed to goad the interviewing agents When his wife is she is very hostile and has refused questions even concerning her identity Keith Avenue Eerkeley is an unidentified woman and an past interviews there have been other people in the and

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

December 2 1968 1-lt j~ ~ -shytt (z STEWART LDWARD ALBERT1

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

December 2 1968 1-lt j~ ~ -shytt (z STEWART LDWARD ALBERT1

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

December 2 1968 1-lt j~ ~ -shytt (z STEWART LDWARD ALBERT1

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

ALBERl has not been cordial in these interviews and g~udeingly submits to them Anytime the questioning takes a turn that he doesnrt like he will then start makinfl flippant and provocative remarks obviously designed to goad the interviewing agents When his wife is she is very hostile and has refused questions even concerning her identity Keith Avenue Eerkeley is an unidentified woman and an past interviews there have been other people in the and

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

December 2 1968 1-lt j~ ~ -shytt (z STEWART LDWARD ALBERT1

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

It is noted that ALBERT has been interviewed on three occasions concerning the activities surrounding the Democratic National Convention In each of the interviews ALBERT wa~ quite aware that he was the subject of an ~~L investigation and the only direct answers he gave were ne~ative and self serving All other answers were of a genera nature

ALBERl has not been cordial in these interviews and g~udeingly submits to them Anytime the questioning takes a turn that he doesnrt like he will then start makinfl flippant and provocative remarks obviously designed to goad the interviewing agents When his wife is she is very hostile and has refused questions even concerning her identity Keith Avenue Eerkeley is an unidentified woman and an past interviews there have been other people in the and

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

Re Chicago airtel to Bureau 121768 with copies to San Francisco and New York

It is noted that ALBERT has been interviewed on three occasions concerning the activities surrounding the Democratic National Convention In each of the interviews ALBERT wa~ quite aware that he was the subject of an ~~L investigation and the only direct answers he gave were ne~ative and self serving All other answers were of a genera nature

ALBERl has not been cordial in these interviews and g~udeingly submits to them Anytime the questioning takes a turn that he doesnrt like he will then start makinfl flippant and provocative remarks obviously designed to goad the interviewing agents When his wife is she is very hostile and has refused questions even concerning her identity Keith Avenue Eerkeley is an unidentified woman and an past interviews there have been other people in the and

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

A call was then placed to the office of the ffBerkeley Barb for whom ALBERT is a writer and ALBERT was not there ~t the time Agents requested that the unknown man take a message for ALBERT and have him oall a number which was that of the Berkeley RA When the unknown man was given the Agents names he said middotYoure FBI Agents arentt you Agents replied in the affirmative Unknown man then said Ill give him the message but I dont think hetll return your call He did not give the address or teleshyphone number at which ALBERT could be reached

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

On 12069 a telephone call was placed to 10~9 Keith Avenue Berkeley Calif where-ALBERT had been livingbull i An unknown woman answered and said that ALBERT no longe~ was living there and was very vague and evasive about when he had moved out and where he was currently living She advised that she could not gat a message to him and had no telephonenumber for him although she knew that he was living in Berkeley

A call was then placed to the office of the ffBerkeley Barb for whom ALBERT is a writer and ALBERT was not there ~t the time Agents requested that the unknown man take a message for ALBERT and have him oall a number which was that of the Berkeley RA When the unknown man was given the Agents names he said middotYoure FBI Agents arentt you Agents replied in the affirmative Unknown man then said Ill give him the message but I dont think hetll return your call He did not give the address or teleshyphone number at which ALBERT could be reached

It is noted that frequent telephone contacts have been made to ALBERT last address since 1969 but there was either no answer Or persons acceping the call said ALBERT was

i out of town

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

It is noted that ALBERT has been interviewed on three occasions concerning the activities surrounding the Democratic National Convention In each of the interviews ALBERT wa~ quite aware that he was the subject of an ~~L investigation and the only direct answers he gave were ne~ative and self serving All other answers were of a genera nature

ALBERl has not been cordial in these interviews and g~udeingly submits to them Anytime the questioning takes a turn that he doesnrt like he will then start makinfl flippant and provocative remarks obviously designed to goad the interviewing agents When his wife is she is very hostile and has refused questions even concerning her identity Keith Avenue Eerkeley is an unidentified woman and an past interviews there have been other people in the and

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

A call was then placed to the office of the ffBerkeley Barb for whom ALBERT is a writer and ALBERT was not there ~t the time Agents requested that the unknown man take a message for ALBERT and have him oall a number which was that of the Berkeley RA When the unknown man was given the Agents names he said middotYoure FBI Agents arentt you Agents replied in the affirmative Unknown man then said Ill give him the message but I dont think hetll return your call He did not give the address or teleshyphone number at which ALBERT could be reached

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

Re San Francisco airtel 11169

On 12069 a telephone call was placed to 10~9 Keith Avenue Berkeley Calif where-ALBERT had been livingbull i An unknown woman answered and said that ALBERT no longe~ was living there and was very vague and evasive about when he had moved out and where he was currently living She advised that she could not gat a message to him and had no telephonenumber for him although she knew that he was living in Berkeley

A call was then placed to the office of the ffBerkeley Barb for whom ALBERT is a writer and ALBERT was not there ~t the time Agents requested that the unknown man take a message for ALBERT and have him oall a number which was that of the Berkeley RA When the unknown man was given the Agents names he said middotYoure FBI Agents arentt you Agents replied in the affirmative Unknown man then said Ill give him the message but I dont think hetll return your call He did not give the address or teleshyphone number at which ALBERT could be reached

It is noted that frequent telephone contacts have been made to ALBERT last address since 1969 but there was either no answer Or persons acceping the call said ALBERT was

i out of town

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

December 2 1968 1-lt j~ ~ -shytt (z STEWART LDWARD ALBERT1

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

It is noted that ALBERT has been interviewed on three occasions concerning the activities surrounding the Democratic National Convention In each of the interviews ALBERT wa~ quite aware that he was the subject of an ~~L investigation and the only direct answers he gave were ne~ative and self serving All other answers were of a genera nature

ALBERl has not been cordial in these interviews and g~udeingly submits to them Anytime the questioning takes a turn that he doesnrt like he will then start makinfl flippant and provocative remarks obviously designed to goad the interviewing agents When his wife is she is very hostile and has refused questions even concerning her identity Keith Avenue Eerkeley is an unidentified woman and an past interviews there have been other people in the and

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

A call was then placed to the office of the ffBerkeley Barb for whom ALBERT is a writer and ALBERT was not there ~t the time Agents requested that the unknown man take a message for ALBERT and have him oall a number which was that of the Berkeley RA When the unknown man was given the Agents names he said middotYoure FBI Agents arentt you Agents replied in the affirmative Unknown man then said Ill give him the message but I dont think hetll return your call He did not give the address or teleshyphone number at which ALBERT could be reached

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

Re San Francisco airtel 11169

On 12069 a telephone call was placed to 10~9 Keith Avenue Berkeley Calif where-ALBERT had been livingbull i An unknown woman answered and said that ALBERT no longe~ was living there and was very vague and evasive about when he had moved out and where he was currently living She advised that she could not gat a message to him and had no telephonenumber for him although she knew that he was living in Berkeley

A call was then placed to the office of the ffBerkeley Barb for whom ALBERT is a writer and ALBERT was not there ~t the time Agents requested that the unknown man take a message for ALBERT and have him oall a number which was that of the Berkeley RA When the unknown man was given the Agents names he said middotYoure FBI Agents arentt you Agents replied in the affirmative Unknown man then said Ill give him the message but I dont think hetll return your call He did not give the address or teleshyphone number at which ALBERT could be reached

It is noted that frequent telephone contacts have been made to ALBERT last address since 1969 but there was either no answer Or persons acceping the call said ALBERT was

i out of town

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

December 2 1968 1-lt j~ ~ -shytt (z STEWART LDWARD ALBERT1

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

It is noted that ALBERT has been interviewed on three occasions concerning the activities surrounding the Democratic National Convention In each of the interviews ALBERT wa~ quite aware that he was the subject of an ~~L investigation and the only direct answers he gave were ne~ative and self serving All other answers were of a genera nature

ALBERl has not been cordial in these interviews and g~udeingly submits to them Anytime the questioning takes a turn that he doesnrt like he will then start makinfl flippant and provocative remarks obviously designed to goad the interviewing agents When his wife is she is very hostile and has refused questions even concerning her identity Keith Avenue Eerkeley is an unidentified woman and an past interviews there have been other people in the and

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

A call was then placed to the office of the ffBerkeley Barb for whom ALBERT is a writer and ALBERT was not there ~t the time Agents requested that the unknown man take a message for ALBERT and have him oall a number which was that of the Berkeley RA When the unknown man was given the Agents names he said middotYoure FBI Agents arentt you Agents replied in the affirmative Unknown man then said Ill give him the message but I dont think hetll return your call He did not give the address or teleshyphone number at which ALBERT could be reached

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

A call was then placed to the office of the ffBerkeley Barb for whom ALBERT is a writer and ALBERT was not there ~t the time Agents requested that the unknown man take a message for ALBERT and have him oall a number which was that of the Berkeley RA When the unknown man was given the Agents names he said middotYoure FBI Agents arentt you Agents replied in the affirmative Unknown man then said Ill give him the message but I dont think hetll return your call He did not give the address or teleshyphone number at which ALBERT could be reached

It is noted that frequent telephone contacts have been made to ALBERT last address since 1969 but there was either no answer Or persons acceping the call said ALBERT was

i out of town

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

Re Chicago airtel to Bureau 121768 with copies to San Francisco and New York

It is noted that ALBERT has been interviewed on three occasions concerning the activities surrounding the Democratic National Convention In each of the interviews ALBERT wa~ quite aware that he was the subject of an ~~L investigation and the only direct answers he gave were ne~ative and self serving All other answers were of a genera nature

ALBERl has not been cordial in these interviews and g~udeingly submits to them Anytime the questioning takes a turn that he doesnrt like he will then start makinfl flippant and provocative remarks obviously designed to goad the interviewing agents When his wife is she is very hostile and has refused questions even concerning her identity Keith Avenue Eerkeley is an unidentified woman and an past interviews there have been other people in the and

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

A call was then placed to the office of the ffBerkeley Barb for whom ALBERT is a writer and ALBERT was not there ~t the time Agents requested that the unknown man take a message for ALBERT and have him oall a number which was that of the Berkeley RA When the unknown man was given the Agents names he said middotYoure FBI Agents arentt you Agents replied in the affirmative Unknown man then said Ill give him the message but I dont think hetll return your call He did not give the address or teleshyphone number at which ALBERT could be reached

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

December 2 1968 1-lt j~ ~ -shytt (z STEWART LDWARD ALBERT1

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

ALBERl has not been cordial in these interviews and g~udeingly submits to them Anytime the questioning takes a turn that he doesnrt like he will then start makinfl flippant and provocative remarks obviously designed to goad the interviewing agents When his wife is she is very hostile and has refused questions even concerning her identity Keith Avenue Eerkeley is an unidentified woman and an past interviews there have been other people in the and

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

Re San Francisco airtel 11169

On 12069 a telephone call was placed to 10~9 Keith Avenue Berkeley Calif where-ALBERT had been livingbull i An unknown woman answered and said that ALBERT no longe~ was living there and was very vague and evasive about when he had moved out and where he was currently living She advised that she could not gat a message to him and had no telephonenumber for him although she knew that he was living in Berkeley

A call was then placed to the office of the ffBerkeley Barb for whom ALBERT is a writer and ALBERT was not there ~t the time Agents requested that the unknown man take a message for ALBERT and have him oall a number which was that of the Berkeley RA When the unknown man was given the Agents names he said middotYoure FBI Agents arentt you Agents replied in the affirmative Unknown man then said Ill give him the message but I dont think hetll return your call He did not give the address or teleshyphone number at which ALBERT could be reached

It is noted that frequent telephone contacts have been made to ALBERT last address since 1969 but there was either no answer Or persons acceping the call said ALBERT was

i out of town

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

It is noted that ALBERT has been interviewed on three occasions concerning the activities surrounding the Democratic National Convention In each of the interviews ALBERT wa~ quite aware that he was the subject of an ~~L investigation and the only direct answers he gave were ne~ative and self serving All other answers were of a genera nature

ALBERl has not been cordial in these interviews and g~udeingly submits to them Anytime the questioning takes a turn that he doesnrt like he will then start makinfl flippant and provocative remarks obviously designed to goad the interviewing agents When his wife is she is very hostile and has refused questions even concerning her identity Keith Avenue Eerkeley is an unidentified woman and an past interviews there have been other people in the and

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

A call was then placed to the office of the ffBerkeley Barb for whom ALBERT is a writer and ALBERT was not there ~t the time Agents requested that the unknown man take a message for ALBERT and have him oall a number which was that of the Berkeley RA When the unknown man was given the Agents names he said middotYoure FBI Agents arentt you Agents replied in the affirmative Unknown man then said Ill give him the message but I dont think hetll return your call He did not give the address or teleshyphone number at which ALBERT could be reached

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

It is noted that ALBERT has been interviewed on three occasions concerning the activities surrounding the Democratic National Convention In each of the interviews ALBERT wa~ quite aware that he was the subject of an ~~L investigation and the only direct answers he gave were ne~ative and self serving All other answers were of a genera nature

ALBERl has not been cordial in these interviews and g~udeingly submits to them Anytime the questioning takes a turn that he doesnrt like he will then start makinfl flippant and provocative remarks obviously designed to goad the interviewing agents When his wife is she is very hostile and has refused questions even concerning her identity Keith Avenue Eerkeley is an unidentified woman and an past interviews there have been other people in the and

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

A call was then placed to the office of the ffBerkeley Barb for whom ALBERT is a writer and ALBERT was not there ~t the time Agents requested that the unknown man take a message for ALBERT and have him oall a number which was that of the Berkeley RA When the unknown man was given the Agents names he said middotYoure FBI Agents arentt you Agents replied in the affirmative Unknown man then said Ill give him the message but I dont think hetll return your call He did not give the address or teleshyphone number at which ALBERT could be reached

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

December 2 1968 1-lt j~ ~ -shytt (z STEWART LDWARD ALBERT1

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

December 2 1968 1-lt j~ ~ -shytt (z STEWART LDWARD ALBERT1

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

December 2 1968 1-lt j~ ~ -shytt (z STEWART LDWARD ALBERT1

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

ALBERl has not been cordial in these interviews and g~udeingly submits to them Anytime the questioning takes a turn that he doesnrt like he will then start makinfl flippant and provocative remarks obviously designed to goad the interviewing agents When his wife is she is very hostile and has refused questions even concerning her identity Keith Avenue Eerkeley is an unidentified woman and an past interviews there have been other people in the and

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

December 2 1968 1-lt j~ ~ -shytt (z STEWART LDWARD ALBERT1

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

ALBERl has not been cordial in these interviews and g~udeingly submits to them Anytime the questioning takes a turn that he doesnrt like he will then start makinfl flippant and provocative remarks obviously designed to goad the interviewing agents When his wife is she is very hostile and has refused questions even concerning her identity Keith Avenue Eerkeley is an unidentified woman and an past interviews there have been other people in the and

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

December 2 1968 1-lt j~ ~ -shytt (z STEWART LDWARD ALBERT1

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

ALBERl has not been cordial in these interviews and g~udeingly submits to them Anytime the questioning takes a turn that he doesnrt like he will then start makinfl flippant and provocative remarks obviously designed to goad the interviewing agents When his wife is she is very hostile and has refused questions even concerning her identity Keith Avenue Eerkeley is an unidentified woman and an past interviews there have been other people in the and

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The a~ov~ was witn~ssed bv a Special AEent of the fBI

It is noted that ALBERT has been interviewed on three occasions concerning the activities surrounding the Democratic National Convention In each of the interviews ALBERT wa~ quite aware that he was the subject of an ~~L investigation and the only direct answers he gave were ne~ative and self serving All other answers were of a genera nature

ALBERl has not been cordial in these interviews and g~udeingly submits to them Anytime the questioning takes a turn that he doesnrt like he will then start makinfl flippant and provocative remarks obviously designed to goad the interviewing agents When his wife is she is very hostile and has refused questions even concerning her identity Keith Avenue Eerkeley is an unidentified woman and an past interviews there have been other people in the and

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

It is noted that ALBERT has been interviewed on three occasions concerning the activities surrounding the Democratic National Convention In each of the interviews ALBERT wa~ quite aware that he was the subject of an ~~L investigation and the only direct answers he gave were ne~ative and self serving All other answers were of a genera nature

ALBERl has not been cordial in these interviews and g~udeingly submits to them Anytime the questioning takes a turn that he doesnrt like he will then start makinfl flippant and provocative remarks obviously designed to goad the interviewing agents When his wife is she is very hostile and has refused questions even concerning her identity Keith Avenue Eerkeley is an unidentified woman and an past interviews there have been other people in the and

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

A call was then placed to the office of the ffBerkeley Barb for whom ALBERT is a writer and ALBERT was not there ~t the time Agents requested that the unknown man take a message for ALBERT and have him oall a number which was that of the Berkeley RA When the unknown man was given the Agents names he said middotYoure FBI Agents arentt you Agents replied in the affirmative Unknown man then said Ill give him the message but I dont think hetll return your call He did not give the address or teleshyphone number at which ALBERT could be reached

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

December 2 1968 1-lt j~ ~ -shytt (z STEWART LDWARD ALBERT1

There have been no instances of the snake d~~ce or 1I1ive pi~ technique ll being used in demonstrations in the San francisco Oakland or Berkeley areas prior to the August 28 1968 incident in Chicago

However on November S 1968 at a demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza San Francisco the demonstrators had a live pig called npigasus in a crate on a flat bed truck which served as the speakers platform During the ti~e Stewart Albert was speaking someone urred him to release the pig but Albert declined and said that the pip would be released at the right tactical time He then told the unidentified roan that if that was his bag he could release the pig

Later someone did release the pie which ~andered around for about one half hour and was then recaptured by spectators and broupht back to the soeaker 1 s olatform The only emotion displayed by the crowd during this time was mild laughter

The crowd then urged that the pig arain be set free and someone again released the pig Shortly thereafter the pig was captured by the San rrancisco Police who called the San Francisco Humane Societv When the Humane Society representatives arrived one of the demonstra~ors ran to the speakers platform and shouted they are arrest inJ our pip I bull In spite of this attempt to arouse the crowd only about eight or ten demonstrators came to the nearby area where the pip was caught and quietly watched the Humane Society officers place him in a cage in their truck

o~ INVESTIGaTION

~- bull -1 STEWART ALBERT was interviewed at his reSidence$ ~ 1049 Keith Avenue BerkeleYt California on November 26 1968

When an attempt was made to advise him of his rights he stated that he was aware of his rights as had been related to him by the same interviewing Agents at an earlier date

In connection with the live pig incident in Chicago on August 28 1966 ALBERT stated that since his own arrest by Chi~ago police for that particular incident had not been resolved he would not discuss any part of the IIlive pie incident fl J

bull excet to say that it had been intended as a satirical prank and not meant to stir up the crowd~ He would notsay how the pig got on the scene nor would he discuss any person connected with the incident

When ALBERT was questioned about the snake dance technique being taught he replied ut-hat is a snake dance He then went on to say that if it is one of those serpentine thingsmiddott

t he did net see anyone being taught that type of thing) nor did he know of anyone bein~ taught karate and defensive tactics In that connection ALBERT stated that he was at a loss to understand how anything like a snake d~~ce could be used as an offensive or defensive measure against a police line He said that he was mildly familiar with karate and he was ce~tain that if anyone had been teaching karate and defensive tactics it would be time wasted because he knew that little if any progress could be made during the short period of time available He said that in any event he knew nothing about that phase of the demonstrations in Chicago~

He said that the only type of physical activity he saw in Lincoln Park in Chicago was organized calisthenics and that this was pictured in newspapers and on television

ALBERl has not been cordial in these interviews and g~udeingly submits to them Anytime the questioning takes a turn that he doesnrt like he will then start makinfl flippant and provocative remarks obviously designed to goad the interviewing agents When his wife is she is very hostile and has refused questions even concerning her identity Keith Avenue Eerkeley is an unidentified woman and an past interviews there have been other people in the and

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

A call was then placed to the office of the ffBerkeley Barb for whom ALBERT is a writer and ALBERT was not there ~t the time Agents requested that the unknown man take a message for ALBERT and have him oall a number which was that of the Berkeley RA When the unknown man was given the Agents names he said middotYoure FBI Agents arentt you Agents replied in the affirmative Unknown man then said Ill give him the message but I dont think hetll return your call He did not give the address or teleshyphone number at which ALBERT could be reached

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

A call was then placed to the office of the ffBerkeley Barb for whom ALBERT is a writer and ALBERT was not there ~t the time Agents requested that the unknown man take a message for ALBERT and have him oall a number which was that of the Berkeley RA When the unknown man was given the Agents names he said middotYoure FBI Agents arentt you Agents replied in the affirmative Unknown man then said Ill give him the message but I dont think hetll return your call He did not give the address or teleshyphone number at which ALBERT could be reached

It is noted that ALBERT has been interviewed on three occasions concerning the activities surrounding the Democratic National Convention In each of the interviews ALBERT wa~ quite aware that he was the subject of an ~~L investigation and the only direct answers he gave were ne~ative and self serving All other answers were of a genera nature

ALBERl has not been cordial in these interviews and g~udeingly submits to them Anytime the questioning takes a turn that he doesnrt like he will then start makinfl flippant and provocative remarks obviously designed to goad the interviewing agents When his wife is she is very hostile and has refused questions even concerning her identity Keith Avenue Eerkeley is an unidentified woman and an past interviews there have been other people in the and

The above is set out to show that continued can serve no good purpose and

only succeed in demeaning and embarrassing _ the Bureau and the -interviewing ~gents ~ 1

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Because of the facts as set out above concerning

interviews with ALBERT he is- not being contacted UACB bull

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

As for further investigation at 1049 Keith Avenue subjects present address it is noted that ALBERT did not reside there prior to his departurefor New York in 1967 and has lived there only since his return to Berkeley following the Democratic ~ational Convention His wife also resides there w

advised residents of 1049 Avenue at that time

Since the ALBERTS had not resided at the above address until after his return from Chicago and since his wife who also resides there is hostile there is no logical investigation to be conducted at that address or in the San francisco Division~

A call was then placed to the office of the ffBerkeley Barb for whom ALBERT is a writer and ALBERT was not there ~t the time Agents requested that the unknown man take a message for ALBERT and have him oall a number which was that of the Berkeley RA When the unknown man was given the Agents names he said middotYoure FBI Agents arentt you Agents replied in the affirmative Unknown man then said Ill give him the message but I dont think hetll return your call He did not give the address or teleshyphone number at which ALBERT could be reached

It is noted that frequent telephone contacts have been made to ALBERT last address since 1969 but there was either no answer Or persons acceping the call said ALBERT was

The Berkeley Barb of 117-2369 carries an article by ALBERT in which he says he was present at the opening of the trial of the Oakland Seven which was 11369 in Oakland California In the past two issues of the Berkeley Barbo articles have appeared under ALBERTs byline which refer to four contacts with him by FBI Agents and also thatthe FBI has beengivi~g me a hard time ever since the Chicago convention

In view of the foregoing it would seem likelythat ALBERT is attempting to avoid further contact and has discussed the matter with persons at hiamp former residence and at the Berkeley Barb where all are attempting to conceal his whereabouts Efforts to locate and interview continli~g
