ESTABLISHED 1SS1 DORRANCE D. RODERICK PRESIDENT AND PUBLISHER EVERY MORNING AND SUNDAY EL PASO,TEXAS December 3 Dear ^1* Forgive my delay in writing* First, it took a while to get my feet back on the ground from Das Vegas. Second, I have been busy as hell--as per usual. Enclosed is a clip from last Sunday. The BOB (business office bastards) cut hell out of our space, as per usual, and Nancy could crowd in but one picture. W?? have some more made up and will drop them along as we can and as space permits. We certainly had a hell of a time. Adele still is spreading the word. In fact, I think that a lot more people will hear about the Sands from her than from reading The Times. Sure sorry you will not be pleasuring us with a visit woon. ?½e will look for you, with pleasure, when we see you. Meanwhile, I have every intention of getting you some pictures and a tape on the luarez street musician 1 mentioned. I know nothing about show business but he?╟╓s funny as hell and you?╟╓ll get a laugh out of it if nothing else. It will be a few weeks before I get around to it because at Mie moment we are faced with an invention of the devil, designed to show off a bunch of stiff shirtsqpx and to drive a few good newspaper people nuts, and known as the SUn Garnival. Only a good constitution will see me through Ian. 1. Nave no more news?╟≤ But Adele and I do want to thank you again for such a splendid time, ^e've never been more royally treated. Iou??$, etc P. S. I feold a member of our staff who formerly was on the san Antonio light about their representation out there. "Good God,?╟Ñ he said. The only way he could figure it was that they had some real big deal going in San ^ntonio at that time and wanted to get hi* out of town. Anyway, there?╟╓s one in every crowd and I keep contratulating all of us for the fine manner in which we kept him out of our hair. RADIO STATION KR0D-600 KC ?╟≤ TELEVISION STATION KROD-TV-CHANNEL 4
