Dear Richard:

Elliott Goldstein is at home ill and has asked me to
contact you concerning the following matter in his absence.
As Elliott discussed with you previously, we are quite concerned
by the manner in which the liquor license in connection with
the Racquet Club has been handled. It appears to us that this
is truly an excellent illustration of being "guilty by association.’
Therefore, we feel that our clients are entitled to have the facts
presented, rather than to be denied their rights based on rumors.

Therefore, we suggest that you select an investigator,
acceptable to us, and we will pay the reasonable expenses of a
thorough and complete investigation, so that the facts may be
available to your committee and to the appropriate authorities.
Also, Mr. Cerami would like to have the opportunity of discussing
this matter with you personally, at your convenience. In the
meantime, should you agree to this investigation, we would
Suggest that the bar facilities at the Racquet Club would be
re-leased to Mr. Jack Rice and operated by him independent of
the owners of the Racquet Club. |

I have tried to reach you by telephone, but I understand
that you are quite busy. Therefore, I have taken the liberty of
writing you so that you may consider this proposal as soon as
possible.

I would appreciate it if you would call me as soon as
you have given this matter further thought.

Very truly yours,

Robert R. Harlin
