Chart C was presented by Deputy Chief Inspector Shanley on October 8, 1963. The contents of Part 1 place it at printed page 294. In this copy it is bound out of order, after printed page 162, next to Exhibit 8. It was scanned in four segments, at NCJRS PDF pages 168 to 171. The image stored here is the first segment, PDF page 168.
The chart is headed “The Carlo Gambino Family.” Carlo Gambino, alias “Don Carlo,” is in the box labelled “Boss,” and the chart names him successor to Albert Anastasia and Vincent and Philip Mangano. Joseph Biondo is labelled “Underboss,” as successor to Frank Scalise, whom the chart marks “murdered.” Joseph Riccobono is labelled consigliere, with the note “apparently retired since suicide attempt.” Present and former caporegime follow, each with a photograph, numbers and activity codes. The first segment also prints the “Key to Activity Code,” which ends with a star for “Identified by Joseph Valachi.” Segments at PDF pages 170 and 171 have been checked only through the text layer.
This is a subcommittee exhibit. The names, ranks and relationships printed on it are the labels of a 1963 police or staff chart. They are not findings of the subcommittee or of a court, and this archive does not copy any of them onto a family page or a person page. The scan is the Bureau of Narcotics library copy of the printed hearings. The fold-out was photographed in overlapping segments, so a name at the edge of one segment may be cut off and repeated on the next.
