Staff Correspondent) New York, Nov. stout heart of a little 1 brown man beat rhythmically today in living proof of a thrilling new miracle of medical, science -proof that Siamese twins can be parted and still live, at least temporarily, In a delicate operation believed to be without precedent in surgical history, the living twin, Simplicio Godino, was separated last night from his dead brother, Lucio, in New. York Hospital. They were 28 years old. A second operation -this time by plastic surgery experts-was for construction of the lower end of Simplicio's digestive tract.

Simplicio still lives--almost 12 hours after the daring operation. At 10 o'clock last night, Lucio Godino died. Immediately there began a drama unparalleled in cal annals. Tense-faced doctors--a surgeon and three assistants--waited as the bodies, one living and one dead, were wheeled into the operating room. -five minutes later they had severed the twins.

Physicians guardedly said Simplicio has an excellent chance to live and become the first man to survive such an operation. Since their birth 28 years ago, Lucio and Simplicio had been bound together by a cord of muscles at the base of their spines. The twins were organically separate, a statement said, "except for the fact that there was a union" between their intestines. Should Simplicio survive. the case will be unparalleled in medical history as no Siamese twin of their age-Simplicio is 28 has ever lived after severance from the other.

PHEASANT SEASON ENDS; FEW BAGGED Today marked the close of the 1936 pheasant season in the central Illinois zone, and most Coles county hunters, at least, agreed that it has proved a disappointment. Very few hunters reported even seeing pheasants and even fewer were able to bag them. Quails, for which the open season in the central zone continues through Dec. 20, also are said by hunters to be hard to find. Veteran nimrods who in other years seldom failed.

to get the daily limit have reported little success this year. A few have reported shooting 10 birds after several hours' hunting, while others have had to be content with from one to six. Rabbits, however, are reported nearly as plentiful as in past seasons. Game wardens are said to be unusually active this season, checking the license of each hunter they find and assisting farmers in protecting posted land. Wrigley Co.

S. Sports Writer) Chicago, Nov. challenge to Chicago University to openly sponsor its football team as a professional one or "leave the Big Ten conference," was 'made today by Sam Whiteside, co-captain of the 1936 Maroon team. His statement WAS contained in an interview published by the Daily Maroon, university student publication. "Football at Chicago will either have to become professional, like other schools in the conference, or the school should leave the conTerence," Whiteside was quoted as saying.

"I would like to see the former course taken. Chicago football cannot go on in its present manner." The co-captain's statement climaxed series of editorials in which the student publication has advocated Chicago's withdrawal from the conference, following its disastrous 1936 season, when it won only two games, lost five and tied one. "Football, as it exists at 'the university, is unfair to the player who is asked to put forth a vast deal of effort without any return," Whiteside charged. He proposed an "ideal setup would be to give the player free tuition and free evening meals." The "free" meal proposal has been 'up before Big Ten officials several times, but voted down. Whiteside enumerated the following advantages which he said would result from assistance to players: 1-A good football team.

2-Education for some who otherwise would not get it. 3-Improve university by increased enrollment and greater gate receipts. 4 Would make possible development, of the complexity and precision of plays, the greatest attraction for both players and spectators. "The consciousness of being part of a smooth-working and great machine is one of the thrills of football," Whiteside added. He asserted "it is impossible to attract athletes to Chicago with high tuition, when they can go to other schools where the cost of education is tower and where the players get some help." He added: we must do here to attract athletes is to sell them on the university, not buy them.

But we are doing neither." 2 MATTOON RUNAWAY BOYS APPREHENDED Police were notified today that James Hopper and J. O'Dea, Mattoon boys who ran away from home Tuesday, have been taken into custody at Odin.

Odin authorities obtained the description of the boys and picked them up when they came into town this morning. The Hopper boy is a son of R.

J. Hopper, a Big Four brakeman residing at 516 North Twenty-third street. Mr. Hopper left for Odin to get his son. Police do not know to whom the O'Dea boy belongs or anything concerning him.

-(INS)-Nazi fury over award of the Nobel peace prize to Carl von Ossietzky, a German citizen, was climaxed today as the German government, in an unprecedented move, lodged a formal protest with the Norwegian government. The 35-year history of the Nobel awards contains nothing similar to this. Ire of German officialdom, from Chancellor Adolf Hitler down, also is expected to result in an offical order forbidding Ossietzky to accept the prize, cash value of which is approximately $40,000. The German protest was lodged by the German minister at Oslo, who expressed to the government Germany's "very great surprise" at awarding the prize to a man the official German press describes as "a condemned traitor." Germany, said the minister, reserves the right to draw "her own conclusions" from such awarding of the Nobel prize. LENHART RESIDENCE SOLD TO CHURCH Mrs.
