contest, enrolled on Its opening day,
Mav 13, being No. 12 on the list. He
made his (list return on May IS, tak
ing third place out of a list of fhe
leaders who had scored points. On
Mny 21 he was second and on Juno G
he was first. He h.id maintained first
plare from then up to within thirty
minutes of the close of the contest,
at one time being over 200 points
nhearl of his nearest competitor.
Throughout the whole campaign Mr.
Lewis was eneigetlc and nlert nnd
took great pilde in maintaining his
l"Sltion .it the tup of the list of lead
ers He lost that position at the lln-if-h
simply because he had underesti
mated the leseive strength of those
below him on Saturday morning.
Thlm-four points more brought In nt

on his plucky fight and for the good
fortune which still smiles upon him.
Ilv his getting many points In the lead
he has acted as nn Incentive to nil

dropping from first place to third will
undoubtedly be tho greatest surprise of
the contest.

CONTESTANTS.
finishes seventh, Is the youngest of

markable work considering his years.
Ho did not apply for enrollment until

do so. He made his flint return on

winner of fourth place had last year.
Miss Pedrick entered the contest on
May lfi, being No. 20, nnd biought In
her first points on May 25, taking
ninth place In a list of ten. For the
first month she continued well down In

wishes will nrvv be realized.
