J.W. RICHARDS, MONTGOMERY, WINS WORLD FAIR TRIP

Last night a special train, carrying prize-winning Ford salesmen to the 
World's Fair, left New Orleans.

Among the group was J. W. Richards of Montgomery, La., who won first prize in 
this area in the special World's Fair sales contest sponsored by the Ford 
Motor Company.

When interviewed at the Booth Motor Company in Montgomery just before leaving 
for New Orleas, Mr. Richards said:  "I'm mighty happy to have won this prize, 
and I' certainly going to take in the World's Fair from one end to the other."
