Yang Mr. A1 Freeman Sands Hotel Las Vegas, Nevada Dear A1: Pursuant to your request during our recent telephone conversation, following is a list of performers committed to participate in the Fourth Annual Sports- men's World Awards presentations at the Sands Hotel on June 27th: Master of Ceremonies, Art Lin-kletter; Don Knotts, Pat Boone, Bob Crane, Chuck Connors, Efrem Zimbalist, Jr., Jimmy Durante, Arte Johnson, Sebastian Cabot, Mike Connors. Not confirmed, but likely: Angie Dickinson and Burt Bachrach. As I stated, a meeting was held with Mike Keeping, Regional Sales Manager for Air West who is now blocking out the necessary transportation required for the Sportsmen's weekend at the Sands. The schedule looks rather extensive and should more than meet our needs. I will determine while in New York what physical re- quirements will be needed and look forward to discussing this and other items with you personally upon your arrival in Los Angeles next week. I hope all is going well for you. Best regards. DZM:mc NATIONALLY TELEVISED PRODUCED BY THE SPORTSMEN'S CLUB FOR THE CITY OF HOPE
