Miss Emile Hayward of Martinez was
the star performer in the gold prize
contest yesterday. She landed three
new subscriptions to The Daily Call
two for one year each and one for two
years-and registered a gain of 1000
votes, thereby capturing fourth place
from Jack the Newsboy' of San Jose.
Miss Hayward is now back in her old
place-the highest she has held in this
period of the contest, and where she
finished in the first period, thereby Win
ming a purse of $3.50. Should she do
as well in this period and the next
one and be No. also in the lineup
for the big sweepstakes prizes she
would be the winner of $3.50 altogether
which would go long way toward
finishing the art education toward
which she aspires.
Jack the Newsboy' is now No 5,
where If he cannot regain his old place
during the next two weeks he will have
to be content with prize of $100 for
this period of the contest. Some Of
Jacks" admirers are betting that he
will beat Miss Hayward in the end. as
he is the sole representative in the
contest in the fourishing city of San
Jose and the great county of Santa
Clara, while Miss Hayward has five
other active contestants to contend
with in her own county
Miss Merani and Mrs Doherty still
are playing tag for first place. Each
is becoming coy about tipping off her
hand to the other, but it is pretty safe
to believe that both are storing up
votes for the final showdown. Both
were holding back votes yesterday. but
Miss Merani received valentine in the
shape of 1000 votes from George f.
Baldwin of Lonoak, Monterey County,
thus increasing her total score to 144,-
600. Mrs. Doherty will probably make
another try for first place about the
end of the week, and the enthusiastic
friends of the Italian lass will have to
be keenly on the alert lest she Of the
Irish patronymic (Doherty) be No. 1 at
the end of the race.

Sacred Heart College still is saun-
tering along in third place, but let no
one be deceived by concluding that
President Lewis and his band of Chris
tian Brothers are asleep and out of
the running for first prize in this period
of the contest Though some 10000
votes in the ruck at present the college
must still be reckoned with before the
race is finished.

riods, constituted as follows: First,

weeks; second, January Is to March 8,
