Ch. 4: Based on Ponyboy’s descriptions in Chapter 1, what are a few of Dally’s personality and character traits? Do you feel he was the right person to help Johnny and Ponyboy? Why or why not?

Dally is experienced and he has connections. He also handles problems head on and thinks them through. In reality, Dallt is likely their best shot for getting away. On the other hand, it might have been better to admit responsibility and tell their side of the story from the start.
