    This is the ad run by the Ohio State Fair people, and which Mike North felt was good promotion. I disagreed on the following points: 1. It didn't sell Skelton as the main attraction on the entertainment roster of events. 2. It subordinated Skelton to the BONANZA show, thru the subtle use of the word in the headline. 3. It didn't even give Skelton 100% billing above one of the acts in his show, as provided for in the contract. 4. It didn't include his picture or Bouchet, as all advertising was supposed to, according to instructions given by us to Mike North. North was working directly with Mr. Papa, the Promotion and Advertising agency head, and I can only assume that this ad is the direct result of approval from North.
