...past, the company and Sinatra seemed an ideal match. In addition to its real estate and construction activity, the company owns four major Nevada hotels and casinos: the Sahara and the Mint in Las Vegas, the Sahara Tahoe in Lake Tahoe and the Primadonna in Reno.

Its resources are open to non-Mormons and Mormons alike...
Tiny Belmond upset the tourney favorites, Ankeny, in the first round, then succumbed to Southeast Folk's sharpshooters. In the other half of the draw, Defending Champ Lake View-Auburn survived the first round but was then outgunned by Kennedy of Cedar Rapids. Saturday night, the Southeast Polk Rams and the Kennedy Cougars prepared to battle for the title. The Rams, led by Rae White's deadeye shooting, were the more polished and experienced players, but Kennedy had the towering Marlena Mossbarger and her "little" (6ft. 2 in.) sister Mona...
