He fights...
After eight hours of sampling, the judges settled on a simple dish: dilly casserole bread. To homey, 56-year-old Mrs. Leona Schnuelle, Crab Orchard, Neb., went the $25,000 first prize. A veteran contestant, Mrs. Schnuelle has won such prizes as $500 (for judging cattle), a trip to Florida, an assortment of appliances and furniture. She tried nine times before she won the bakeoff...
