This unusual research challenge has been hurled at America’s college students by a company that has an absolute interest in finding the most intriguing and humorous definition of a Clamato, whatever it is.

Five hundred additional clams (hint, hint) will go to a runner- up and $250 will be awarded to the jjerson whose response is chosen third best. A panel of famous judges will select the winners, according to Mr. Anrig, who said the competition will end on November 3, 1978. The contest is open to any current full-time college student in the United States. The answer to “What is a Clamato?”, can be submitted in the form of an article, short story, fable, a painting, cartoon, jungle, photograph or sculpture, or any other means a student may employ.
