This is the front page of the Las Vegas Sun from Feb. 10, 1975 featuring a story on bugging by Howard Hughes. It describes an affidavit by a former CIA agent who said bugs were placed in an attempt to put Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Mass., in a compromising position in a Las Vegas hotel and phone taps on former Gov. Grant Sawyer, then Gov. Mike O'Callaghan and Sun Publisher Hank Greenspun.
