"Being a manager, you have to deal with customers on

Holmes says the time she puts in at the club is made enjoyable
by thevclubs' eight owners, who have engaged her

by forming a broad-based entertainment company. He 1

The instincts that served Earl so well throughout his illustrious
sports career are proving to be just as acute in
electing artists, songs and producers with winning potenial.
The first act signed to Pretty Pearl Records is Curtis
blairston, a native of Winston-Salem, and his first
elease, "I Want You (All Tonight)," produced by GregRadford,
is already a solid hit. Earl has equally high
lopes for his second artist, Ed Sparks and the Elektrik
