TIME has learned that among the documents seized were lists of code names, like those a bookie would keep to identify bettors.

...Sheraton is a familiar face at all the bigger and more fashionable eating places in Manhattan; the attention lavished on her at such establishments supports her case for camouflage. She never makes reservations in her own name; she often pays the bill with a credit card issued to a pseudonym, and varies her disguises.
