Show Who's Viho contest closes; full $30 prize awarded The Who's Who contest came to a successful conclusion conclu-sion this week with the winning win-ning of the full $30 prize by Mrs. Wayne York, who said it was the first time she had ever won anything. She . is still on crutches from an accident acci-dent during the wintertime in which she suffered a fractured hip. . Sponsoring merchants this week were Christensens Store and Sprouse-Reitz store and the boxes were practically filled fil-led with entries who made an effort to get in on the last week's prize money. The contest has furnished considerable amusement to the many readers. One contest winner remarked that he had never read so many ads so thoroughly before. Many of the merchants have expressed satisfaction with the contest in which it was necessary neces-sary that contestants read every ev-ery line of every advertisement advertise-ment of the sponsoring merchants mer-chants in order not to miss a clue. The only regret of the sponsoring spon-soring merchants and the Springville Herald is that everyone ev-eryone who entered did not get a prize. . The Who's Who this week was Edward Boyer and contestants contest-ants seemed to have no difficulty diffi-culty in identifying him from the 13 clues located in the ads of the sponsoring merchants. The contest has continued over a period of 20 weeks and during the time several thousand thou-sand entries have been placed in the Who's Who boxes. Prizes Priz-es have ranged from $10 to $150 a week. |
