that otherwise a no-man's land for

CHICAGO, September 25.-An ex-

old girl were held tonight while police
checked and rechecked a bizarre story
Of an unwanted infant girl and I'M

In custody were Thomas Lizak and
his wife Dolores, in whose home the
baby was found after Police Capt.
Martin Mullen received an anonymous
telephone call. and Miss Beatrice Kis-
inger. Mullen said Miss Kisinger ad-
mitted she was the baby's mother.
After police rounded up six persons
who have figured in the baby's hectic
existence, Capt. Mullen said this ap-
parently was what happened:
Miss Kisinger came from South
Bend, Ind, to the home of her half
sister, Mrs. Blanche Ramsay Buxby,
and on July "a gave birth 30 the child,
which six days later was given to Mr..
and Mrs. Joseph Brzank. Finding
the child burden, the Brzanks re-
turned the baby to its mother early
this month.
Unaole 10 support 1t, Miss KlSinger
and her half sister then turned it
over to the Lizaks.
Detectives Edward Kennedy and Jo-
eeph Pinicki said Brzank, upon re-
turning the baby, signed a release"
which read:
Il, the undersigned, agree not to
modest the parties hereafter and will
turn over to Mrs. Blanche Buxby and
her sister from who I received this
baby"
The detectives said Lizak similarly
signed a paper" on receiving the
baby, and quoted it as follows:
Il, Tom Lizak, and my wife agree
TO take this baby and rise it as our
own, with the mother to be free of
trouble ON her behalf and we will not
cause any trouble"
The officers said that all concerned
denied any money was involved in
the transactions.
The Lizaks were booked for dis
orderly conduct. Miss Kisineer was
turned over to juvenile authorities. and
the baby sent to st. Vincent's Orphan
age. The Brzanks and Mrs. Buxby
were released.
Both Lizak and Brzank are ex-
press men.
