The winner was 14-year-old Helen Jensen of Council Bluffs, Iowa, correctly spelling the word albumen.[4] Ruth Des Jardins of Michigan came in second, who stumbled on "asceticism", followed by Mildred Froning of Indiana, who went out on "conflagration".[5][6] The final hour of the contest was broadcast on radio, starting at 3pm Eastern standard time, by the National Broadcasting Company.[7] There were 24 contestants this year.[8] First place received $1000, followed by $500 for second place, and $250 for third.[5] References1. ^Note: Sources at time vary on her age from 12 to 14, but public records appear to verify a February 1916 birthdate {{Scripps National Spelling Bee}}2. ^(26 May 1930).
