    Freeman PUBLIC RELATIONS pfilf# mM Since then, the rest of the Las Vegas show producers hare been on a merry-go-round trying to out do each other with huge production numbers, involving 20 and 30 people in $20,000 production nuubers which only run about six minutes. Amid the frenzied rush towards bigger and sore expensive production numbers, Sntratter has kept his lead by steadily presenting his famous Copagirl beauties in colorful numbers that are Just "pretty and pleasing".

Sntratter has purchased more than $9,114,000 worth of talent for his nightclub presentations, and he spends each week, nearly $55,000 for live entertainment for his shows at the Sands Hotel, thesBsma??s???½H??tel, and his tele-.;. vision productions in Hollywood. - Sntratter's standing as the new top showbuslness producer in America today is proven by the roster of stars he has -nor#- BEVERLY H ILLS, CAL2 ?╟≤ 449 SOUTH BEVERLY DRIVE ?╟≤ CRESTVIEW 6-4326
