Elmwood-Didn't Fifi and his brother Frank "The Horse" run the connection guys in the first ward? I had thought Frank "Skids" Caruso was in charge of 26th Street up until Aiuppa took over and installed his own guys (LaPietra Brothers) there. Skids was also a Taylor street guy and tight with Giancana. Perhaps you are saying Buccieri took over for Frank?

An interesting story on the Buccieri brothers is that they tried to extort Audy Murphy the WWII hero through a third party. He caught the scam and called Frank directly and told them to get fucked. They backed down immediately.
