Scary Story Contest submissions sought

The Journal-World is encouraging youths to enter its annual “Scary Story Contest.” The deadline is noon Monday. Finish this story in 700 words or less: “That has to be the ugliest baby I’ve ever seen,” I thought when I arrived at the Kendricks’ home to baby-sit their new infant. Then send it with your name, age, grade and school to teens@ljworld.com. Entries must be submitted by e-mail. Winners in the high school, junior high and elementary school divisions will be announced Oct. 31 in the Pulse section. For more information, call Jon Niccum at 832-7178.
