Fall of 1950, dad in hospital, I, 15 years old took the SC Case and the GI one row snapper to get some corn for the stock. General Implement was a cheap non husker, the only thing dad could get or afford after WW2 and was no good...always plugging.

The morning is as clear to me this day as that day's lesson was. All I have to do is to look at my 10 old fingers, wiggle them and think what might have been. Leo
