    MENTONE - Although Dale "Corny" Wallace jokingly says that "somebody has something against me" in regards to his being named grand marshal of the 1991 Mentone Egg Festival parade, he said there was no hesitation in accepting the job.

Wallace, a lifetime resident of Mentone, was chosen grand marshal by the Mentone Chamber of Commerce board because of his military background - the theme for this year's parade is "God Bless the USA."
