Lewis Wins Third
Highest Prize In
Coca-Cola Sales
Brooklyn — New York City —
and Roanoke Rapids!
Those are the first three win
ning cities in one of four terri
tories divided up over the entire
United States in the 1932-33 Win
ter Sales Contest for Coca-Cola
bottlers salesmen, and it remained
for K. Lewis, “live wire” salesman
for the Weldon Coca-Cola Bottling
Company to “bring home the ba
con” and place the name of his
plant third in the list of winning
bottlers in his respective territory,
comprised of the Eastern and At
lantic States.
In addition to the distinction of
winning third in the “Class A”
series of his territory, Mr. Lewis
is richer by the sum of $100.00 for
his efforts, and he wishes to thank
all of his friends and customers
who helped him win the prize.
The nearest North Carolina ap
proach to Mr. Lewis is Elizabeth
City, ranking fifteenth in place on
a list of twenty-nine winners.
This year’s contest is similar to
an annual drive launched by the
Coca-Cola Co., for bottler’s sales
men, in which 243 cash prizes are
offered.
Mr. Lewis is well-known and lik
ed in the territory he serves. He
is a resident of Weldon, but works
exclusively in Roanoke Rapids ter
ritory. Daily his big yellow truck
may be seen plying the “Avenue”
and side streets. No customer is
too big or too little for Lewis, and
he gives all the same, pains-tak
ing “service with a smile” that
makes a contest winner. He is a
member of the American Legion.
