Tapped for Immortality - Members of the Royal Fraternity of Master Metaphysicians Nov. 24 admired Baby Jean (above), five months old, whom they have selected for an experiment which they believe may make the baby immortal. Baby Jean, daughter of indigent parents, will be provided an environment, in the Vanderbilt mansion in Oakdale, N.Y., free of word or thought of death or disease in her quest for immortality. Shown with the baby are fraternity members Eleanor Shehr (left), Charlotte Schmidt (center) and Louisa Kerfs.
