SEARCH IS ON FOR WORLD'S BIGGEST ROACH
The next time you are about to step on that roach scampering
across the floor, think twice.
If it looks big, really big, it could win you a trip to New
York City or even $1,000. Unfortunately, it's disqualified if it's
plastered to the bottom of your shoe.
The makers of COMBAT Roach Control System this week announced
the kickoff of their annual search for the biggest cockroach on the
world.
To qualify, entries are "Wanted Dead, Not Alive" but cannot be
squashed or altered. Entry deadline is Sept. 30.
Last year's search drew more then 2,000 entries. Entries should
be carefully packaged in a box and sent, along with your name,
address and phone number, to: COMBAT Quest for the World's Largest
Roach, The Pest Shop Inc., 2231-B West 15th St. 75075.
