As you know, Freddie Dieterich was up there for us and did a number of interviews to go along with the blast footage. Amongst those we used included one with a Sands guard and Another with your office manager. The Sands sign was very prominent in the background and there was an audio credit as well. These interviews went coast-to-coast on the Douglas Kdward's Mews the evening of June l??th ^^^ The same day they were also used once on our Pacific network and three times locally on KNXT. I also want to thank you, Al, for your cooperation with Fred in setting these up. But this is getting to be an old story now as far as CBS-TV News is concerned. With you around the Sands I feel I have another man in Las Vegas. Please call me on your next trip to town and I hope that one of these weekends I can break away and pay you a visit. Best regards.
