Say Siamese Twins Can't Be Separated Specialists Decide | Against Operation Chicago. NoV. 28—(UP)— Specialists decided today that the Brodie Siamese twins cannot be separated safely. Neurologists at the University of Illinois research and educational hospitals reached the decision after four weeks' of exhaustive diagnostic .tests. The twins, Rodney and Roger. * were born Sept. 16 to Mrs. Royt Brodie, of Bast Moline, 111. The parents had refused to permit surgery if it meant sacrificing one of the infants. Doctors said they could not. op-' erate because both t infanta suffer from a congenital heart condition Frequently durfig the teats they turned blue and had to be placed under oxygen tents, attendants said. -Alt The children are joined at the top of their skulls, and their feet point in opposite directions. Doctors said they have separate brains and nervous systems. Their circulatory systems also are apparently separate, doctors said, al though no tests could be made in the region where they are joined. —

World Champion Hog To Be Named Today lowa State College Shows Champ Steer Chicago, Nov. 28 — (UP) — Judges at the 52nd annual international livestock exposition pick' the world’s champion hog today, and if you think he’d rather be in a mud hole, you’re mistaken. \ “Hogs don’t like to get dirty,” paid animal husbandry professor Hobart Jones of Purdue University. “They’re among the world's cleanest animals, if you give them a chance.” ( - Jones is attending the exposition, world’s biggest livestock show, with a group of his students stid a drove of hogs. He said that Purdue stood a good chance of bringing home the bacon in the ?;rand champion barrow department. i He said many Americans have the wrong idea about hog hygiene. The only reason a hlg is dirty is because the farmer wen t let him keep clean, Jones said. This is not only unfair to the hog, buu.uneconomical for the farmer, because clean hogs make better porkchops. Another thing. Jones said, “hogs fed garbage don’t have as good meat as those on scientific diets —it isn’t as firm.” Hogs at Pprdue dine on a bill of fare of one-third corn, one-third oats and one-third wheat, with a dash of protein supplement. Farmers raising hogs for money and not for show probably would Eliminate the wheat, Jones said. Current-day championship hogs are slimmer than their ancestors, Jones said, because everybody wants lean But he doubted that future champions would be much trimmer because “you need jome fat tor flavoring.” The grand champion barrow, like the grand champion steer, "his counterpart in the. cattle division who was selected yesterday, will be auctioned with \ high blds expected from restaurant people who want to glamorize their menus. A college-bred black Aberdeen Angus steer named “Toby” won the, blue ribbon for the world’s finest steer. He was shown by lowa State College. At the auctions of prize winning animals which will be held later at the exposition, Toby stands to bring about 814,000 —if he equals the record 312-a-pound for which the 1950 champion sold, h The 1,240-pound steer was selected from an original field of 378 entries who survived competition at lesser shows throughout the Country. The reserve grand champion in the steer classification went to a shorthorn, shown by the University of Idaho. Both Toby and Formation were named the best of their respective breeds. The championship for Hereford breed went to “Red Top,” shown by the En-De Hereford Ranch of Loveland, Colo. At the fopostiion in 1950 and 1949, Herefords took the grand championship. All-Day Fair On At Presbyterian Church A ( big noon-day crowd attended the all-day fair held by the ladies of the First Presbyterian Church at the church today. Lunch was served at noon and dinner will be served tonight. Gifts, baked goods, candy and other items are being sold on the first floor of. the church and sales will continue until 10 o'clock tonight. Dinner will be served from 5 o’clock this evening on.

Marine Deserter Is Taken Into Custody Indianapolis, Nov. 28—(UP)— Harold R. Matthews was held in Marion county jail pending release to military authorities today on a charge of deserting the marine corps from Treasure Island, Cal., last March. He was arrested by FBI agents here yesterday. Cold Weather Hits Eastern Seaboard Mild Temperatures < In Rest Os Nation By United Press The entire Atlantic seaboard north of Florida shivered in win-, try weather today while at least five fishermen were feared lost in. a raging storm that churned the North Atlantic ocean. Relatively mild temperatures prevailed over the rest of the nation west of the Appalachian mountains. However, in the mountainous Coconino national forest near Flagstaff, Artz., a high-altitude snowstorm stranded an estimated 30 elk hunters. Rescuers with provisions reached nine of the outdoorsmen yesterday and pushed on toward the others. The ocean gale—witH winds up to 65 miles an hour —was the aftermath of a storm which rolled north from New England after dumping up to 12 inches of snow on parts of Maine. Below-zero temperatures moved in to chill the New England area. Lebanon, N. H. registered Six below, and Montpelier, Vt., had three below. Other representative temperatures showed 17 above at Boston, Mass., 20 at Philadelphia, Pa„ 22 at New York, 35 at Atlanta. Ga„ and 36 at Jackson, Miss. AU were below-normal readings for this t’me of yean One man of theAjeaking, 82-<oot \ fishing trawler Mary M. swam ashore through ice%old waters that pounded the vessel to pieces on the rocky shore of Cuttyhunk, Mass., an island. -L The crewman, William H.
