Sarno's creation is currently the talk of the town. When something is talked' about constantly in this -town then the whole country knows it. Sarno's theory is that no visitor will pass through Las Vegas without taking in the new Circus Circus. He may be right. The Circus Circus is a two level big top.

You enter the place and are on a balcony Jhajfencircles a gambling area below. Everything youve ever seen at a circus, a carnivat or a boardwalk is incorporated, inta. "this unbelievable structure. On the balcony level alone you can keep busy all night long and still not cover everything. There are numerous shooting galleries with the latest in electronic innovations and equip-ment.

You'll find skee ball, dart games, horse racing games, wheels of fortune and even peep movies. The games cost 25 cents a throw and winners are given iokens which are redeemable at a well-stocked redemption center. The casino will be giving something like $20,000 a month away in prizes alone.

There's a projecting stage to the right of the pit area for tumbling, acrobatic and dog acts with enough circus entertainment to fill a dozen big tops. Included are the Flying Cavaretta's, the Rodriguez Brothers, aerialist Jeannine Piboteau and the three unicycling Goetschis. Then there's Joe Gerlach.
