    Prospectus by Alfred Sheinwold BRIDGE TOURNAMENT AT SARDS HOTEL Expenses: This should be taken up with A1 Freeman, because of his experience to the ten Gin Jhasmy tournaments* We need playing space* tables* cards* tablecloths* ashtrays* pencils* scorepads, service personnel* refreshments, registration personnel, complimentary rooms to reasonable quantity* free entries as agreed upon* travel and other expenses for invited pairs* and a reasonable number of assistants to the Judge* depending on the size of the entry. Most of the publicity will be free* but we will take some advertisements (Bridge World* ACBL Bulletin) ?╟≤ We will print promotion material* a Player's Guide* scorepads * As may easily be seen* this kind of detailed projection of expenses should be based on Al*s experience with the Gin Rummy Tournament, We should also rely on his experience to the litigation over the Gin Rummy Toumamdnt. For Judge mad assistants* X suggest a conference with A1 Freeman also* X can get subordinates for $50 per day* or perhaps a little less. We need experienced bridge tournament directors* xdinee we will go very much by the book and cannot rely on the home-made rulings of non-bridge-players. For myself* X suggest full expenses (travel*room* fo?╜a and beverage) to the extent used to Las Vegas and to the extent agreed upon for other promotional trips; and a fee of $5*000 over And hbove expenses *
