RESULTS

After long consideration, the officials of this firm are happy to announce below the Prize-Winners in the DATA Shoe Competition.

Unfortunately, none of the letters were really outstanding. nor did many of the competitors display much knowledge of the BATA organisation. Nevertheless, if 'quality' was lacking it was more than made up for in the 'quantity' of letters sent in, indicating a very keen interest in BATA shoes.

Prize-Winners are requested to call at the Main Store, China Building before the end of the month,
