Letter: Nonsmokers need their own clean-air casino

Tuesday, Dec. 3, 1996 | 11:59 a.m.

Which will be the first new casino to go nonsmoking? Where are the risk-takers that built Vegas? Are they dead and buried or just too afraid?

Obviously a nonsmoking casino needs fewer porters -- isn't saving in vogue anymore?

A new casino can write its own ticket. Some new casinos cater to families -- many gamblers stay away from these casinos, yet these new casinos prosper. How can that be?

I belt Delta Airlines was told they would lose customers if they went totally nonsmoking. Delta has prospered.

Somebody, please give us nonsmokers our own casino. You could pick and choose from a flood of nonsmoking job applicants.
