Please see pics. Book has little spine/cover tears, discoloring, sticker and price written on front cover corner, but no other markings.
I cannot find this book anywhere else at this time. It looks like the College English Association in 1968 awarded this publication to nine small authors, maybe they were just college students that had at least one piece published in a magazine? The judges were themselves all accomplished writers: Paul Horgan, Walter Kerr, Louis Kronenberger, and Phyllis McGinley. I believe a couple of these nine went on to write some more, including Russell Banks and film critic and editor, David Ansen.
