To ballyhoo the campaign at the start, the Chamber is offering two $25 prizes, one for the best name for the day, and the other for the best slogan for the day. Stress of available parking space will be considered in the slogan contest. Everyone is eli gible to enter the contest except members of the chamber and their immediate families. Presentation of the awards will be made on ' July 21 by Mayor J. Clifford Hansen at a brief ceremony and celebration which will include many entertainment features. The program was outlined by Kenneth Brady, chairman of the retail trades committee. The parking committee, headed by Judge W. Douglas Allen appeals to all merchants to keep their cars off State Street in order to attract more buyers to their stores. The parking committee was asisted on the survey by T. Ray Kingston, chamber executive secretary. Judge Allen told members that city cooperation in preparing lots for parking was assured. To keep the tempo of the campaign at a high pitch an intensive advertising program was outlined for convenience of merchants. The chamber plans to distribute the advertisements in the entire south Salt Lake area. Newspapers will solicit the special advertisements with the ad ditional circulation of the ad. The Murray Eagle plans a' double page spread in the center of the paper. Chamber plans call for un iformity of ads, with every one on a bargain good only on Wed nesday. Additional promotional material is planned on the ad vertising page of the newspaper If the initial phase of the program is a success the chamber committee has many other promotional schemes to put the drive over big. Mr. Brady is studying similiar projects which have been successful in other cities. He appeals to all merchants to forward suggestions on the plan to him so the committee can act on them. Mr. Kingston, Mr. Brady and Thomas B. Neff, president of the chamber, joined in a plea to all merchants to help make the program a success. For the convenience of its readers, the Murray Eagle has provided an entry blank and rules for the contest at the bottom of this page.
