            TERMS OF MERGER WITH AVIATION INDUSTRIES

Fort  Lauderdale,  Florida,  July 16,  1998-Integrated  Marketing
Professionals, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: POKR), formerly known as
Casino  Airlink, today reported terms of its previously announced
definitive  merger agreement with Aviation Industries Corporation
(OTC  Bulletin  Board: AVIA).  Under the terms of the  agreement,
shares  of the Company's common stock will be valued at $.62  per

shares  of POKR common stock will be exchanged for one  share  of
Aviation Industries common stock at a rate determined by dividing
the  average  closing price of Aviation Industries  common  stock
(calculated  over  the ten trading days commencing  five  trading
days  prior  to the effective date of the merger) by  0.62  (avg.
price / 0.62 = number of shares of POKR exchange per one share of
AVIA).    Completion  of  the  transaction  is  subject  to   the
completion  of regulatory review by the Securities  and  Exchange
Commission, as well as approval by shareholders of each company.
