BINION DOLLAR HOARD

  Regarding last week's item about the television show about
  a Nevada silver dollar hoard, an anonymous subscriber writes:
  "The CSI episode was based on the real-life murder of Ted
  Binion, son of the founder of Binion's Horseshoe Casino in
  Las Vegas.  He was killed by his fiancée and her boyfriend in
  order to secure the precious metals and coins he had buried
  in a vault in the Nevada desert.  The pair was tried and
  convicted several years ago."
