   Our church is having a golden harvest dinner Sunday after service. Wonder what the golden harvest prises were?

   According to the January 1955 issue, salesman Lee Hayek, Jr., won the contest. He was awarded a $1000 check and a Willys Deluxe Automobile. I don't know if there were any other prizes. I have documentation that other sales contests awarded vacations, a week's vacation pay, other Willys vehicles (a Darin was one prize), gold watches, and more. A 1956 contest awarded a "luxurious" European vacation to London, Paris and Rome.
