Dime Box Citizen
Wins Radio Prize
Julias A. Kocurek. Dime Box Drug-
gist and Radio dealer entered a R. C.
A. Dealer Contest last summer and
won first prize of $'500.00. The
check was mailed some two or three
days ago.
Mr. Kocurek stated that he spent
only about two minutes preparing his
sales idea which won first prize and
netted the sum of $600.00. There
were more than 13,000 dealers who
entered the contest.
The idea of the contest was for
each dealer to write in their own
words, what they considered the best
sa'ee talk to use in selling R. C. A.
Radiolas.
Mr. Kocurek is a brother of J. F.,
