    From the dedication page:This issue of STORY is a departure from the magazine’s ten-year policy of exclusive devotion to the creative short story.

Mailer I assume this to be Mailer’s first short story, though it appears to have been previously published in the April 1941 issue of The Harvard Advocate from where I believe it was entered to win this award; the Eighth Annual College Short Story Contest Winner from STORY Magazine. About Mailer on the Contributors Page it says the following: NORMAN K. MAILER, first prize winner of STORY’s eighth nationwide contest conducted among the colleges of the United States, was a student at Harvard from which “The Greatest Thing in the World” was entered. He was born in Long Branch, NJ, January 31, 1923; he is probably one of STORY’s youngest contributors.” Mailer was 18 at the time this was published!
