' r Treasurer arid Queen Pageant Co-Chairman Dear Al: We are now planning our 1956 Queen Pageant, to be held in April, and would like to award the winner a three day visit to Las Vegas. Contestants are sponsored by press photographers?╟╓ organizations in cities from coast to coast, each local organization holding their own beauty contest. Not only are all N.P.P.A. members mad?? aware of the prizes going to the winner; in ad- dition, these prizes are publicized as the local contests are held. Would the Sands host Miss National Press Photo- grapher of 1956 during her stay in Las VegaS? This would entail accomodations for the nights of April 10, 11, and 12 for both the girl and an escort from the N.P.P.A. (probably myself).
