    ALPHA TAU OfMGA 1415 Cambridge Ann Arbor, Michigan February 19, 1957 General Manager Sands Hotel Las Vegas, Nevada Gentlemen: Allow me to introduce myself, My name is Frank Randak, and my jobi is Social Chairman of my chapter of Alpha Tau Omega here at the University of Michigan. We are one of the larger and more active fraternities, on campus, socially, athletically, and scholastically, and we are noted among.other things for the variety; of parties we give during the year, Wei have planned, for the weekend of March 9th and 10th, what promises to be one of the most successful parties of the social season. Its theme will be ?╟ÑA Night in Las Vegas,?╟Ñ and we are putting a great deal of effort and time into Its success. We have rented professional gambling equipment from a firm in Detroit at a coat of ?║150 and we have done much researh on gambling to help us plan the party well and give it an air of authenticity. It is this last detail that concerns us most most, and it is this detail on which we need your help. We can not duplicate the casino of the Sands Hotel, or match Its entertainment with our limited budget. However, pictures, menus, matchbooks, and pamphlets from an actual casino would te;?? a long way toward fill- ing this gap. Also, any advice you can give us to improve our party or any Information as to where we could obtain additional gambling equipment certainly would be appreciated. Of course, we would be more than willing.to pay the postage on anything that you send us. Thank you for your cooperation! Frank C. Randak Social Chairman Alpha Tau Omega
