Siamese Twin Girls Have Good Chance To Live Although Joined At The Heads
Los Angeles—(U.P.)—Twin baby girls born here 61-2 months ago have surprised doctors by gaining weight and thriving even though they are joined together at the heads, said Phoebus Berman, a hospital director here.
However, no attempt will be made.
However, no attempt will be made "in the near future" to separate the Siamese twins, May Yvette and Gladys Yvonne Jones. The babies lie with their heads attached at the crown and their feet pointing in opposite directions.
Mr. Berman said the two are too young to undergo thorough examinations to learn if they can be separated. If the brains are joined or if the infants are otherwise vitally joined, it would make successful surgery more improbable. Mr. Berman said. Parts of the skulls would have to be replaced by surgical plates.
The twins were born May 12 to Mrs. John Jones, 38, the mother of nine other children. Doctors said it was a "miracle" she had been able to carry the infants in pregnancy. Mr. Berman said the twins surprised the doctors by gaining weight normally and remaining in the best of health.
Because the cranial link is not a perfect one, doctors believe the babies may have separate brains. When one child lies on her back, the other lies partly on her side
"The hospital probably will continue to care for them because it would be too expensive for their parents to care for them at home or in a private institution."
"But if the twins have joined brains or fused blood vessels nourishing their brains, we probably won't attempt to operate." Mr. Berman said.
The twin's parents have indignantly turned down offers to turn them over to a side show.
Treason is the only crime defined in the Constitution of the United States.
Young Republican Member Will File For State Office
Harry Weed, a Young Republican from Wakefield, has announced that he will file as a candidate for Secretary of State in the 1950 primaries.
In Topeka, three weeks ago, our party leaders expressed concern less they lose the youth of the party. They shall not lose us. We Young Republicans are eager to participate in state and nation- and we shall." Mr. Weed said at the Young Republican convention in Hutchinson.
Mr. Weed has served as chairman of the Washburn University Young Republican club. He was a combat veteran in World War II.

Mail Parcels Now Advises Abraham
The importance of mailing Christmas packages early was emphasized Monday by R. C. Abraham, superintendent of the University mail station.
He warned that the postage rate for Christmas cards has risen from 1 1-2 cents to 2 cents this year. "Only cards without writing (except for names and addresses) can be sent second-class." Mr. Abraham said. "Second-class matter must not be sealed. We advocate sending Christmas cards first-class because they can be forwarded."
The station will be open from 8 a.m. until 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, and from 8 a.m. until 11:30 a.m. on Saturday.
Speech Therapy Seminar Hears Dr. Gundle Speak
Every child has a tendency to stutter when learning to talk, Dr. Sigmund Gundle told the speech therapy seminar Dec. 1.
Dr. Gundle, psychiatrist and instructor in social work at Watkins hospital, said that nervous tension at that time or later in life might cause the stuttering to become habitual. He discussed the factors that interrelate between psychiatry and speech correction.
