TWO-HEADED CHILD STILL LIVING
(Rec. 11.34 a.m.) LONDON, January 3. The two-headed baby bom at Birmingham is still living, although it is not expected to survive. The doctor in charge of the caso said the birth was due to imperfect division of a single ovum such as occasionally resulted in Siamese twins. The child has two sets of lungs and two heads breathing independently.
