I agree.Klingman 8c SPENCER INC. ?·Pu&$ic ^RdatianA October 3rd, 1957 ?·L Freeman, 9508 Wilshire Blvd, Beverly Hills, Gal* Dear jfcl, Thanks for your warm response* Our stars for the first show will be Sammy Davis Jr., Marge & Gower Champion, Fernando Lamas, Jayne Mansfield, Tony Randell, and M.C.?╟÷ Anne Sothern. First rough idea that comes to mind is to have these seven top stars get together to play No* 7 on the wheel and?╟÷for story purposes-?╟÷win a boodle* Regarding the writers* We know Earl Wilson will be delighted to go* Phyllis Battelle of INS is hot for the trip and we would like Al Green of Women?╟╓s Wear (after all we sell brassieres) to go* We would also like Leo Lieber of This Week, Fred Othman of the Telegram (he?╟╓s syndicated) and a writer from TV guide to go* I?╟╓d like to go of course, but if I don?╟╓t, the head of our outfit, Lawrence Klingman may be there* But problems, problems! William Phillipson, producer of the show has provided 25 rooms, half dozen of which we see utilizing so there is no real problem there* However phillipson has asked us to lay off TWA for free transportation for many reasons, one of which is because he can?╟╓t give them a plug on the show* Actually we can?╟╓t plug any airline on the show. Only thing in it for an airline would be what the junketeers wrote on their own* If you had any connections with another airline that would go for it...great. Other possibility would be for Exquisite Form to pay half the/travel nut for six writers from New York if Vegas hotels would split the other half. By rule cf thumb I figure our share would be around $900. What would the hotel split be. ..about $225 each? I don?╟╓t know what its worth in Vegas but I do know that Exquisite Form would be adamant to our sales pitch on the deal if it was a matter of the whole nut. ?╟÷ more - 54 PARK AVENUE NEW YORK 16, N.
