    WAN COMPANY pubffc/sts %/zWt Mr. Eugene Weil Station WLOK P. 0. Box 285 Memphis* Tennessee Dear Gene* I have sent Phil a wire okaying the five day, Monday to Friday* vacation as the main door prize in your AFA Convention in Memphis. Under separate cover, I am sending to you 20 dealer aprons* gambling brochures* 700 cocktail napkins and swizzle sticks. Inclosed please find a picture of Hie Sands' front* which I would appreciate your using in any material in which you mention The Sands. Our cut line is "The Sands -- The Hotel That Made Las Vegas-Famous. Please send me copies of any material you put out and any promotional pieces in which The Sands is mentioned. I am trying to get large posters from TWA and Union Pacific showing the town in art form and will get these to you quickly. I will also have forwarded to you pictures of each hotel and downtown showplaces* so that you might make a strip montage, as you sug- gested on the phone. This about winds up the things we talked of doing on the phone* but if anything comes to your mind, please let me know. Either Archie Loveland or I will be at the convention on October 10* if things go as we plan. As I understand it, The Sands is the only hotel awarding the vacation prize and, if I say so myself* you couldn't have picked a better spot. Kindest regards, Al freeman 9508 WILSHIRE BLVD. ??
