Heavyweight pass: CHL catalog record for April 1954 could not be verified this session (client-rendered SPA, no browser tool access); IA scan conferencereport1954a kept as retained top-level source per docs/review.md. Page-by-page collation against the scan (leaf 67-69, printed pp. 68-69) confirms this is Elder John Longden's (Assistant to the Council of the Twelve Apostles) address opening the Third Day Morning Meeting, Monday, April 5, 1954, per President McKay's introduction, followed by Elder Harold B. Lee. Corrected the source_url page anchor from n69 to n67 (the talk's actual opening page). Set talk_order 1, exact date, calling, and session. Body matches scan verbatim; no further OCR corrections needed.
