He was frequently called on to perform at parties of friends and one night, the entertainment director of a noted nitery heard him and urged Crosby to turn professional. Today, he is a top comic and one the fastest rising personalities on the entertainment scene. Also on the show will be "The Vibrations," a top rhythm-and- blues group with three best selling singles during 1965; and a rising young singer named Walter Jackson, who has captured the imagination of Epic executives and is being groomed for the future. Two other artists familiar to Las Vegas audiences will also be on the bill. Renowned cometist and trumpeter Bobby Hackett, a timeless musician who is one of the most consistant long-play album artists, will appear, and his segment will be a demonstration in versatility and interpretation. Ronnie David, who has proved a popular drawing card both to live audiences and on record, may also work in duo with Hackett as the pair did on a recent release. The long play record proved so popular that several of the tunes were released as singles for jukebox play. The show will be open to the public with five-hundred seats available. Tickets may be obtained at the Sands casino cage. # # # #
