READY TO PARTY? ENTER OUR ART CONTEST

Grab your pencils and best ideas: NewsFun's annual Halloween Art Contest is under way.

We want you to submit a picture of any Halloween scene you want. There are no limitations on what you can draw, but the idea must be your own.

The entries, which will be judged on originality and form, will be divided into age groups: kindergarten-first grade; second-third grade; fourth-fifth grade; and sixth-eighth grade.

NewsFun will throw a party for the class of the winner in each age group. Plus, the winning drawings will be published in the Oct. 28 edition of NewsFun.

All you have to do is:

Submit a color drawing of a Halloween scene on plain white paper.

Include your name, grade, school, school telephone number, home telephone number and address on the back of your entry.

Mail your entry to NewsFun's Halloween Art Contest, The Roanoke Times, P.O. Box 2491, Roanoke, Va. 24010-2491.

Entries must be received by midnight, Oct. 21. Only one entry per person.
