“Winners: The 1977 New Era Writing, Art, Photography, and Music Contest,” New Era, Aug. 1977, 10–11
Winners:
The 1977 New Era Writing, Art, Photography, and Music Contest
Giant spiders in danger of their lives, lonely dolls and little girls, the Ten-speed Cowboy and the Massachusetts Kid—what super surprises came to us in the 1977 New Era Writing, Art, Photography, and Music Contest! And here in the August issue we share some of them with you.
These are not all of the winners, but they do represent the fine quality of work submitted for each category. Throughout the year you will be seeing the work of other contest winners as it is used to complement articles, stories, songs, and illustrations in the New Era magazine.
Especially noteworthy in this year’s contest were the great number of young (12- to 16-year-old) writers whose work was of such high quality that it made it to the semifinals and the finals. A special note of congratulations and encouragement is sent to Terri Drake, 12; Laura L. McWhirter, 13; Terry Beane, 16; Linda Quon, 15; Amy Minnoch, 12; Scott Simpson, 16; Tami Lynn Crockett, 16; Sandy Schempp, 13; Alveda Polyak, 16; Becky Barker, 15; Tracy Hunt, 15; Jerilyn Hanson, 14; Lisa Marostica, 14; and Peter B. Ball, 16.
