THREE prizes of eight guineas each are offered for the three best original descriptive reports (between 500 words and 750 words) of any notable event occurring between July 1, 1955, and August 31, 1955. Entries, which need not be typed, should show the entrant's full name and address and school and be posted to The Editor, Spectator, 99 Gower Street, London, WC1, in envelopes marked 'Schools' Competition.' The competition, which is open to boys and girls at school at the end of the summer term, will close on September 19, 1955.
