In the month of May were received some 1140 entries in the short story contest sponsored jointly by Doubleday, Doran and Company, Inc., and this Review. The prizes offered were a First Prize of $500.00 and a Second Prize of $250.00. Among the conditions it was stipulated that no contestant was eligible who had already published a book of fiction.
Judges of the contest were Robert Pęnn Warren, Harold Whitehall, and John Crowe Ransom. In addition to the prize stories themselves the editors have secured publication rights to other competing stories, and will publish them during the next few issues. Another contest for prizes in the same amount will be conducted in 1945, and announcement of the terms will be made presently.
