What is the diff. between "The 14th Art Contest" and "the 14th Art Contest"

0 Hello, everyone, I am trying to translate someone's Japanese CV into English CV.02br
02br
00Please explain the usage of "the" in the following case.02br
02br
00e.g.02br
00<Group Exhibition>02br
001980 the 14th　Figurative Paintings Contest, Fukui gallery, Fukui pref.02br
00or02br
001980 The 14th Figurative....02br
02br
00On someone else's ＣＶ, he was using "the". But I thought it should be "The".02br
00Which is correct? If both are grammatically correct, what are the differences?02br
00Please explain for me. It would be appreciated!02br
00thank you.02br

0Dear Mister Micawber,02br
02br
00Thank you for the reply. The usage of 'the' is always a problem for me.02br
01font00The contest does not have an official English name, so I thinik I will omit 'the' as you suggested.02br
02br
00Thanks again,02br
