have a new "Dell Burgers" built by the daughter of the original owners and using
the original recipes. Don't taste quite as I remember them but probably
because my tastes have changed.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial>My favorite place was Dell Burgers in the mid 50's in
Medford Or.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial> I know there is a lot of cool history
on these old Oregon towns and there are not a lot of people left to tell them,
and even less that are on computers.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial> I am not old enough to have memory of
45 to about 52. Only from personal experience we stayed home because my mom
and dad worked.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial> We did not have a popcorn shop, but I
was real interested in Newberrys and Woolworths and Western Auto in the those
days and all the bikes then had * fenders* <G></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial>We may never know what made Mrs. Shockley's
popcorn taste so good, but we will never forget that it did.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>A little hole in the wall on Main Street, just east of
12th Ave., was where we bought her delicacies. She
also</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>bred and sold cocker spaniel dogs.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>My first dog was "Skippy", named after Skippy
peannutbutter, came from Mrs. Shockley. I will never forget the day
that Skippy was killed by a hit and run driver in front of out house on HWY
20 at Foster, OR.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>For fear of flames from the Manear family I will not
relate the "tail" of Pedro (one of Skippy's pups given to the Virgil Manear
family), except to say that I saw Virgil slam the door on Pedro's
tail.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>What the heck. All of those popcorn shops in
Chicago don't come close to what Mrs. Shockley sold in the good old
days!!</FONT></DIV>
