After 56 Years Hiccups Still Defy Cure for Osborne
ANTHON Iowa AP Charles Osborne has hiccups for 56 of his 84 years and still seeks a cure. He notes his fame from a 1936 Believe It or Not radio appearance and a Guinness record, while treatment continues under Dr Terence Anthony at Southern Illinois University. Osborne began hiccuping in 1922 while hog butchering on a farm near Union Nebraska and has endured them through farm work, retirement in 1961, and his wife’s death on March 12.
