Two-Headed Calf With Double Moo Romps
Briskly in North Carolina Farm Pasture
Sparta. X. C. CU.RJ A two-
headed Hereford calf began its
loth day of life with a double
moo today and then took a brisk
romp around the pasture.
Dr. O. M. Fulcher, the veter
inarian who has been keeping a
close watch on the registered
heifer, took a second look and
said, "It has every chance of liv
ing longer than any other two
headed calf I've ever heard
about."
Little Princess Fay Helsman
was born.unassisted June 28. She
has two perfect mouths, two per
fect noses, four eyes and two
ears.
"She walked backwards for
the first couple of days," owner
Mrs. Howard T. Lyon of High
25 New Cases of
Polio Reported
Washington ilhR; The Pub
lic Health Service said today
that 275 new cases of polio were
reported in the nation last week,
sharply less than the 405 cases
reported in the comparable
week of 1955.
The new bases boosted this
year's total so far to 2,931. At
the same time last year the fig
ure was 4,111.
At this time of the year, polio
cases usually swing up sharply
each week. But last week there
were only 17 more cases than
the week before. .
Although the total number of
polio cases is running consider
ably behind last year, the paraly
tic rate is only down slightly.
There have been 1,528 cases so
far this year compared to 1,652
at the same time last year.
Authorities said there is no
way of measuring what effect
Salk polio vaccinations are hav
ing on this year's rate. However,
they feel certain inoculations
will prevent several thousand
cases.
Point, X. C, said, "because her
head was so heavy."
"But now she just romps and
plays around the pasture like all
other calves."
Doubls Lif
Little Princess lives a double
life of Riley. She is fed three
times a day. She just opens each
mouth, moos twice . . . that is
double moos . . . and she is given
a ginger ale bottle full of milk
in one mouth and a Coca Cola
bottle of milk in the other.
Little Princess was sired by B.
S. Helsman II out of Princess
Fay Domino. The mother pro
duced three normal calves be
for giving birth to Little Prin
cess. Fulcher said he is "amazed."
"I thought it would die soon
after birth, but this is past the
14th day and I don't know of
another two-headed calf that has
lived longer," Fulcher said.
Fulcher said the heifer is per
fect except for the two center
eyes.
"It could see out of all four
eyes when it was born, but the
two center eyes have died ... I
think from pressure," he said
On Brain
The veterinarian said the calf
has "one functional brain" be
cause it moos from both mouths
and when one eye blinks the
other must blink.
Fulcher said he believed a
"gene mutation" is responsible
for the two heads. A gene is one
of thousands of units that deter
mine the characteristics of any
offspring.
Mrs. Harrison Lyon, whose
husband is taking care of Little
Princess on his farm here for
Mrs. Howard Lyon, said people
in Alleghany County are seeing
double.
"At least 2,000 people have
come to see her." she said. "She
romps and plays and frisks
around and none of the other
livestock pay her much mind."
Mrs. Howard Lyon said she
has received several offers for
Little Princess but that she is
undecided whether to sell.
"She was so cute when she
opened both mouths and mooed
at me," Mrs. Lyon said. "And
you ought to see her gobble the
milk from the pop bottles."
Catholic Daughters
Protest Attire
Portland (U.R The Catholic
Daughter! of America were on
record today in protest against
what they called the .increasing
immodesty of women's; 'attire;
the opening of supermarkets and
service stations on Sunday; and
the distribution o sexy maga
zines "and other indecent liter
ature." ...
Delegates to the national con
vention here adopted a resolu
tion yesterday agreeing to . "in
fluence other women for a pos
sible restoration of modesty in
speech, action, styles, thought,
literature and advertising."
A spokesman for the order
- said this resolution was a reflec
tion of the Catholic church's con
cern about increasing immodesty
- of women's dress and behavior.
Another resolution placed the
' organization on record as favor-
i ing local level efforts 'to stop
circulation of sexy magazines
."'and other indecent literature.'
And still another resolution
urged the Daughters to express
in writing to theater managers
their disapproval of bad movies
and approval of good movies
The convention was scheduled
: to close today with election and
. installation of supreme officers.
Researcher Denies
Communist Ties
Los An-'eles U.R Mrs. Eli
zabeth Poe Kerby says a state
ment before the House Un
American Activities Committee
that she was active in a Commu
nist group was "absolutely non
sense." Mrs. Kerby was associated
with John Cogley in making a
study financed by the Fund fof
the Republic on show business
blacklisting. The report had ac
cused New York newspaperman
Frederick Woltman of being a
"clearance" man for the enter
tainment industry.
Woltman denied the charge
and testified before the commit
tee that Elizabeth Poe was "very
active in the Communist group"
in the American Newspaper
Guild while a Time magazine
employee. Mrs. Kerby married
Phil Kerby, editor of Frontier
magazine, after leaving Time
magazine in 1953.
Mrs. Kerby declared Wednes
day that "Mr. Woltman's state
ment is absolute nonsense.
"It is interesting to note that
Mr. Woltman, even behind con
gressional immunity, . does not
say I am a Communist. He
knows I never have been one."
West Coast Airlines
Dispute in Discussion
Washington (U.R) Repre
sentatives of the Airlines Pilots
association were to meet with
a mediation board here today in
an attempt to ward off a strike
by West Coast Airlines pilots.
The association agreed "reluc
tantly" yesterday to defer a
strike against the airlines which
had been set for midnight last
night.
At issue in the dispute are
higher wages and a retirement
plan for the pilots.
Flood Insurance
Program Approved
Washington U.R) The
House Banking committee today
approved a bill calling for a $3,-
000.000,000 government spon
sored flood insurance program.
The measure and a companion
Senate-passed bill would provide
up to $250,000 insurance for
businesses and a maximum of
$10,000 on any one home.
Under the House bill, business1
would pay 60 per cent of the
premiums and the federal gov
ernment 40 per cent. The gov
ernment would decide what it
would pay on home insurance.
Under the Senate measure, fed
eral and state governments
would share 40 per cent of the
cost. '
The administration recom
mended an "experimental" fed
eral flood insurance program
after last year's disastrous floods
in New England and the Far
West the idea is to provide low
cost insurance for flood victims
who generally cannot afford
high priced private flood insur
ance.

San Diego Clue
In Kidnap Studied
San Diego (U.R) The FBI
said today it was checking a po
lice report that the kidnaped
Weinberger baby was brought
here from Chicago on an air
liner by an unidentified woman.
Police, however, said they
doubted if the baby was Peter
Weinberger who was kidnaped
from his Westbury, N. Y., home
July 4. Officers referred the re
port to the FBI after Mrs. Gladys
Conley told them a woman left
a baby in her care for a few min
utes after arriving here Wednes
day at the airport.
Mrs. Conley, an airport em
ployee, said the woman left the
child "between three and six
weeks old" w-ith her while she
made a telephone call. Mrs. Con
ley said the woman came back
and got the baby a few minutes
later and drove off in a car with
a man. .
Officers said Mrs. Conley
failed to identify the child as
Peter Weinberger after being
shown . pictures of the missing
infant. -

of a prominent Washington,
D. C, attorney, is shown in
the San Francisco Hall of
Justice where he was

Coffee Drinking
Boycott Urged
New York !U.R) The presi
dent of a New York coffee pro
cessing company today urged
consumers to "stop drinking
coffee, as the best way to curb
rising coffee prices. '
With prices at their highest
since the peaks of 1954, William
Black said "there isn't a thing
we can do about it. except to
stop drinking coffee."
The head of Chock Full O'
Nuts Coffee corp. said present
prices don't reflect supply and
demand. He pointed to Agricul
ture Department reports that the
current crop of foreign grown
coffee beans which U.S. roasters
depend on will top"" 50,000,000
bags, "the largest on record."
Black said "All the South
American countries have to do
is hold back their supplies, and
we have to pay whatever they
ask through the nose."
His statement recalled vigor
ous protests and boycotts insti
tuted by American . consumers
when coffee price tags soared to
1954 peaks. Trade sources be
lieve that the outcry and result
ing lower demand were factors
in pulling prices down from their
highs.
