OAKLAND 1507 Leimett Blvd. (415) J33 045 SALES-RENTALS PROPERTY MANAGEMENT said that Gray Line's chief concern is to service both points with an airport limousine service. With the growing popularity of the South Shore of Lake Tahoe and the tourist trade at Sahara-Tahoe, Gray Line has ad- ing stores, a jewelry shop, beauty salon with sauna, barber shop, florist and a complete gift shop. Guests may also find the conveniences of Air West, Avis Rent-A-Car and Gray Line Scenic Tours registration desks in Sahara-Tahoe's lobby. This fire-, place-centered main lobby led one newspaperman to describe Sahara-Tahoe as "the only major hotel-casino in Nevada where a guest can enter, register and get to his or her room without passing a single slot machine or crap table." For Golf Buffs Adjacent to Sahara-Tahoe, only a wedge shot away from the lobby, is America's newest 18-hole championship golf course, the Edgewood-Tahoe Country Club.

Lake Tahoe, for years a sleeping giant among tourist attractions, now is not only sharing the Nevada spotlight with Las Vegas and Reno but has become the mountain playground for the West. Lying at 6,229 feet and surrounded by beautiful mountains, Tahoe's scenic credentials have always been impeccable. As a natural stop on the first Pony Express route, the lake was bound to eventually be served by modern highways. Today the car count past the south shore's state line averages 25,000 a day during the "season." Nearly 100 buses a day, many sponsored by the Sahara-Tahoe, bring additional crowds.

The glimmering beige and white 14-story tower splits the air to strike an imposing scene amid pine-covered slopes and grassy meadowland of the High Sierra. Sahara-Tahoe will soon tack on another prestigious achievement. Due for occupancy in mid-December will be an eight-story, 224-room addition, part of a $3.8 million building investment by the Del E.
