Tony V, Lawrence, who lives near here, and her grandson, Douglas, 11, have found the perfect solution to the messy job of tinting Eas- ter eggs. Her hens lay ready-made Easter Eggs. The eggs are two-colored: Some light and. dark blue, light and dark grey, light and dark pink. One batch is light and dark green. Mrs. Lawrence said. she bought 11 hens and one roos- last' July. The dealer (AP) READY MADE promised they were true "Easter chickens" and would produce Easter eggs. Later, she discovered his words were true. The color permeates the egg and is not confined to the shell, she said. "Yes, it is possible," said Floyd Hixson, professor of poultry husbandry at Fresno State College. The eggs probably are the products of cross-breeding be- tween ordinary chickens and an exotic South American breed called the Araucana, he said. | agent exiraordinary Tom Ro- mano wes everything the fic- tional James Bond ever was, and then some -- until fate stripped him of his attache case and his masquerade.

Catizene introduced himself as Tom Romano of the Central Intelligence Agency, leader of an American espionage squad. He came complete with pistol and attache case -- the latter stuffed, hé said, -with treaties he was bringing back to Wash- ington from South Viet Nam. Mrs. Darris was impressed by Catizone's tales of piloting a spy plane, similar to the U-2 that was shot down over Russia.
