President Clinton is planning a fund-raising trip to Las Vegas next month.

Clinton is expected to attend at least two fund-raisers Nov. 14 for the Democratic National Committee, party sources said.

One event will be at the Desert Inn on behalf of the DNC's Women's Leadership Forum, an organization devoted to encouraging women to participate in politics.

Clinton was in Las Vegas in July, when he addressed the National Governors' Association, the last annual convention chaired by Nevada Gov. Bob Miller.

Clinton's last trip attracted additional national attention because he played golf at the Las Vegas Country Club with NBA superstar Michael Jordan and state leaders.

A couple of days earlier, Clinton participated in a presidential forum on Lake Tahoe. The forum was set up by Sen. Harry Reid, D-Nev.
