Assured of the child's normal intelligence, Surgeon Herbert Hermann Schoenfeld decided to cut the boy's skull across, from temple to temple. This Surgeon Schoenfeld did last week, wedging the halves apart by three-fifths of an inch, knowing that scar tissue would close the transverse gap if the child lived, hoping that the brain would grow forward & backward as Nature must have intended.
