I recall the morning I had breakfast with Conley and watched him eat his first pair of soft-boiled eggs. It was on a train as the Braves were moving East to West and Gene and I went into the dining car. I ordered soft-boiled eggs. "Are they good?" asked the elongated Conley, a rookie at the time. "For breakfast, they are," I answered. "Show me how to eat 'em and I'll try a pair," Gene said. "It's a deal," I replied. The instructions on eating soft-boiled eggs were simple and I'm pleased to report Conley enjoyed them. "Mom never did fix 'em that way," Gene remarked.

This is the Peblys Hook Barracuda Limits By WALLY TAFT The three Pebly brothers Dick, Bill and Delmar of Anaheim, took off and tried their luck down the coast off Capistrano Beach and had very good success. The three anglers all limited out on barracuda, with the largest fish tipping the scale at 12 pounds. They had their own boat, so they took off from the beach and reported that all the anglers in the area were doing very well on barries that day.

The largest fish of the day was a 25-pound king salmon landed by Paul Lohr as Nick Gregg caught a ten-pound grouper. The anglers loaded up on bars with about 40 caught that were all good sized. They also landed about 50 salmon grouper.

Then along came this new Dodge—and things happened! People who were used to paying a thousand dollars more found that Dodge offered all they could desire—at a sensible price. Owners of medium-priced cars discovered that for the same amount of money, or less, the new Dodge provided much roominess, comfort, and more pride.
