McKnight Road Clayton 17, Missouri (St. Louis Post Dispatch) This is to confirm my request and your reaction, that the Sands host a couple for a week-end as a door prize for the news photographers who will attend our annual Short Course in News Photo- graphy, Nevember 6-7-3. Nothing except the actual Short Course itself created the exceitment and enthusiasm that your prize did last year. So if you can let me have a note as you did last year that we can give to the winner by way of introduction, it will be greatly appreciated. And it could just as well be at the Dunes, Al, if you prefer. ?╟≤ Secretary HOWARD HAMMERSLEY, JR. P. O. Box 111 Roanoke, Va. (Roanoke Times-World) ?╟≤ Treasurer LESTER A.
