I agree.9/2/64 Las Vegas Dear Mr Brenner, I am enclosing a statement from the Central rfowarfa Exhibition for the Bed Skelton shows of August 21 and 22, which may help to answer fho questions contained in your letter of August 28. As I understood it, the contract called for half of the guarantee to be paid in American money, and half in Canadian currency - and thus the difference in the checks. The contract also called for 70% of the gross receipts exceeding $36,000, but because of the rain, we did not exceed that amount. The promotion on the Fair was tremendous - the cooperation of the Fair officials was beautiful - fho preparatory work was excellent ?╟≤'it was just an act of God that caused it to rain, and abhorted what should have been a tremendous box office sale. I these records myself during the rainy show, and I believe the attached statement is a true picture as far as we can verify it. I hope this answers youc questions, but if there is anything I can do further, please let me know. Kindest regards. A1 Freeman Mr Robert L.
