Their search was concen trated in an area surrounding an abandoned tenement where two boys Saturday night found a Christmas - wrapped parcel containing a blanket and kimono believed to have been the garments worn by tiny Lisa Rose Chionchio when she was taken from the fourth floor nursery at St. Peter's hospital. Also being sought was a heavy-set, bleached blonde, about 30, believed to have taken the seven-pound baby from the hospital Friday. Doctors said the infant re quired special feeding, but probably could survive with out any food for 72 hours from the time she was taken, pro vided she was not abandoned in the cold. Without Clues Aside from the garments found in the abandoned tene ment three miles from the hospital, police were without clues. Twenty women resem bling the suspected kidnaper were rounded up and ques tioned Sunday, but later re leased. Thirty - seven FBI men joined the search for the Chionchio baby and her kid naper Sunday under terms of the federal kidnaping statue, which permits the FBI to enter a kidnaping case 24 hours after the crime occurs.
