Toni Connolly

“Believe it or not, Mrs. Connolly, those are real eggs!” Marine Sgt. Frank Connolly takes his British bride, former Toni Lupino, on tour of Arlington, Mass. To acquaint her with American war of life. Toni bears up bravely at sight of genuine hen fruit. “It’s been a long, long time,” she sighs, “I’d forgot eggs weren’t powdered.”
