Babes, twins, and a fog of juice mixups in Lubbock

UPI reports confusion over the Wood twins at Reese Air Force Base as Mrs. Wood suspects a footprint test may tell the boys apart after a babysitter feared they were swapped. Captain Wood notes a footprint expert could help, while the mother recalls giving both infants orange juice, triggering rashes. The family includes two older children, Douglas and Debbie. In Cleveland, a remarkably heavy twin birth sets a record with a combined weight of 20 pounds 4 ounces. A boy weighs 11 pounds 5 ounces and a girl 9 pounds 15/4 ounces, with the parents reportedly unnamed. A Terrell, Texas adoption scene follows. In North Kingston, Richmond Viall Jr. tells of seven geese and a pond that lead to the drowning of a fox, observed after the geese honked around a hole. The fox is found dead the next day, suspected to have fallen through ice.
