Heavyweight pass: CHL catalog record for October 1954 could not be verified this session (client-rendered SPA, no browser-tool access); IA scan conferencereport1954sa kept as retained top-level source per docs/review.md. Page-by-page collation against the scan (leaves 125-131, printed pp. 125-131) confirms Elder Harold B. Lee (Council of the Twelve), Third Day (Sunday, October 3, 1954) afternoon meeting, third speaker following Elder Ezra Taft Benson and Elder Bruce R. McConkie (the latter not part of this file batch), concluding speaker before President McKay's closing remarks that ended the conference. Fixed a running-head bleed artifact mid-sentence ('PRESIDENT DAVID O. McKAY I must tell you, President McKay, about the meeting' to 'I must tell you, President McKay, about the meeting') and an OCR typo ('Chiense' to 'Chinese'). Body otherwise matches scan verbatim. Set exact date, calling, session, and talk_order (talk_order reflects actual sequence including McConkie, not in this batch).
