QUEER LEGAL TANGLE ; A OVER ESTATE LEFT BY SIAMESE TWINS

(By Associated Press) CHICAGO, March 31. The death of Rosa and Josefa Blazek, the "Siameso twins," has left the Cook county probato court with a legal problem which apparently is unprecedented. In determining the disposition of the $100,000 estate of the twins the court must decide if 11-year-old Fra ia the son of one or both of the twns. A scientific controvers; which be gan even before the death of the sisters early yesterday has issolved itself into the question: Vere Rosa

and Josfa Blazek one indiviiual personality or did they constituf sepa

rate entitles?

If they were one personality e son

would inherit the entire frtune which was accumulated by theWiri3

during their exhibition tours otho world. If they were two distinctWisonalitles, Rosa being the motherWl

Josefa, the aunt, only Rosas naitof the. estate would go to the lad, wrY

Joscfa's closest relatives, induCM

her 85-year-old father and four br

ers. would be entitled to her half.

Physicians say there are pbyslolo, leal facts . to support each contents and attorneys agree that a legal opir ion must be based on a scientific an alysis of the bodies. i So far, a post-mortem has been op posed by the brother, Frank Bzek, who is in this city.

possible means of saving one (the
