Y., Feb. 7 (UP)—Lake | Erie held today the secret of wheth- er ten fishermen had gone to their | death. An all-day search, ending at {dusk yesterday, revealed no trace of {the men who were reported to have Canadian | drifted away from the shore on an ice fleld Sunday. The search was conducted by air- plancs, ships and land patrols. Every inch of the area was scanned by of- ficlal searchers but nothing was found to indicate the men had been drowned. When the search was ended both American and Canadian police were | of the opinion that an optical illu- sion caused the report of the strand- ing. The faet that no fishermen were reported missing supported this the- ory. Those who first reported the stranding to coast guardsmen here said they were less certain in their opinions. It was pointed out that sun on an ice field sometimes d a mirage. TWINS ARE SEPARATED nese Pair Operated Upon Allow- ing One to Live—Child Saved Ap- 10 he Normal Baby, b, 7 (UP)—An opera- tion which severed Siamese twin and permitted one to live was re- vealed here today. The twins were born on February 1, to Mrs. Frank Keller, in a litfle farm cottage near Marseilles, Til. Dr. Panl E. Clark, who attended the birth, said they were joined together in the lower part of the abdomen, in such manner that the same blood stream ran through both bodies. One child apparently was normal, but the other showed no sign of life, except the blood circulation. Inas- . much as the circulation came from the heart of the other baby, Dr. Clark decided that an immediate op- eration was the only hope for the normal chil It was impossible to perform the Keller's home. So a makeshift incu- bator was made. It consisted of a closed box, lined with blankets and containing hot water bottles. The conjoined twins were placed in the box and rushed to Raybun‘ hospital’ in Ottawa. Dr. J. H. Edgecomb, a specialist, was called. He agreed with Dr. Clark that an opcration was necessary. Ether was administered to the baby |and the connecting link of flesh sev- ered. The baby was glven oxygen for eight hours to combat the effects of [1 DEFENDANTS FACE OIL CHARGES Four Multimillionaires Included | in Teapot Dome Investigations | Washington, Feb. 7 (UP)—Busi- ness leaders who direct two or three billion ments are now involved as defend- ants in the rapidly-increasing “Tea- pot Dome" - prosecutions—so-called because they all originate from the famous senate naval oil lease inquiry in 1923-24. against tham now number eleven, Four of them are multi-millionaires, and six others are millionaires or nearly so.
