Announcing the MILKIE Award l Interested in a Milo sports bag? Milk shake machine? Free milk? Free Milo? Celebrity status on 3ZB? AH of this can be yours with a few choice words in the MILO MILKIE AWARD. Just take pen in hand and compose a witty account of your milk vendor's performance. You know... the way his supple legs bound down your stairs. The way his dazzling eyes sparkle in the sunlight. The way he pats your dog. That sort of thing. Then mail your letter to 'Milo Milkie Award', P 0 Box 1484, Christchurch, or drop it off at the station. Then listen closely to 3ZB because starting March 18, the most original, entertaining letters will be read on air every day for 12 days. If yours is read, you automatically win packs of Milo and a milk shake machine. If you call in within 5 minutes of the reading, you win an additional prize of a Milo sports bag, full of Nestle products such as Milo, Quik, Classic Coffee and milk tokens, plus recognised celebrity status here in Christchurch. If, at the end of the 12 days, your vendor has received the most passionate and amusing and bounteous tributes, he or she may win the Milo MILKIE AWARD and your area may win free milk. Of course your vendor will also receive a welcome help while Barry Corbett from 3ZB joins him on his run. Stay tuned to 3ZB for more details, the reading of the letters and your chance to win. In the meanwhile, start on that letter. the heart (fa gnat city New Milk MP 137 1 ft ' %
