Two sand construction competitions in Vierville

A first report brings together a hundred children around the theme of the house of their dreams. Messrs. Legallois and Bouljoux had prepared the competition.

Among the six-eight years old, Émile Briones was ahead of Pascal Gondolf, Hugues Matthieu and Nicolas, whose last name is difficult to read. Among the nine-eleven year olds, the first four places went to Évelyne Baron, Luc Sechet, Catherine Lacoste and Catherine Gosselin. Among the twelve–fourteen years old, Thierry Matthieu preceded Jean-Philippe Oxéant, Marie-Laure de Guser and François Gosselin. The program also announced swimming licenses at 3 p.m. for Vierville and Saint-Laurent, then, the next day at 3 p.m., a sand contest on sea animals.

A second cut, mounted below the first, reports another contest organized on a Thursday afternoon by Le Figaro with Mr. Legallois. He had gathered 98 children. Michelle Racine had won the category of children born before 1959; Sophie Guilbert, that of births from 1966 to 1968; Évelyne Bunouf, that of 1963 to 1965; Nadine Baron, that of 1960 to 1962. Each had won a swimsuit and a kite.

Reconstructed or uncertain passages:
- The name of Nicolas, fourth among six-eight year olds, seems to be Guérennec, but the reading remains insufficiently clear to affirm it. The two competitions are separate articles brought together on the same file; their results are not merged.
