From The Indianapolis News, Thursday, August 27, 1925: The official count in the Better Babies Contest has found 1,120 babies eligible for participation in the event to name the best baby boy and the best baby girl in Indiana. This year’s number of eligible entrants is more than 200 babies over last year’s which shows a growing interest among Indiana parents in the better babies’ competition. Dr. Ada Schweitzer, director, state board of health division of child hygiene, is conducting the contest in conjunction with the state board of agriculture and The Indianapolis News. Letters are being sent to the babies’ mothers informing them on what day and hour they may bring their babies to the state fairground Better Babies Building for examination. Twelve sets of twins have entered the contest, but the space reserved for triplets is conspicuously empty.
