Interesting topic. My experience was mostly the same, but different too. All in "town school". First grade, in 46, no lunch program, all brown bag or dinner bucket. Second grade they started "hot Lunch". Some kind of meat, potato or noodles, 1/2 pint bottle of milk, & a vegetable, all for a buck a week. Still had to carry bread & an apple, cookie etc from home. Middle of second grade we moved to different farm, town, school. Complete meal of meat, potato, veg, bread, cookie or cake. A dollar bought a ticket good for 5 meals. Friday was bad, tuna/noodle hotdish or fish sticks. Ate a lot of peanutbutter bread on Fridays. Still can't stand the smell of tuna, 50-60 years later. High school I thought I was in hog heaven. Wanted to be a teacher, as 2 of my sisters before me, so went to college prep boarding school. Meals were family style. Everyone ate at the same time, & was assigned a table, 5 girls, 3 boys, mix of class from H S frosh - Coll seniors. We took turns, 2 people from each table would "shag" the bowls/platters of food from the kitchen service window. When done eating, we would "stack & shag" the used dishes back to the kitchen window. Actually pretty good food, complete meals, meat, spuds, veg, salad & dessert. Some of the girls were watching their diets, so it left more in the bowl when it was passed around the table for us hungrier types. Willie

I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
