during their summer vacation in July 1952. Now, 30 yean
later the plant is in bloom and will soon die. The plant, native
to Mexico, was once thought to bloom in approximately 100
years, hence the name ’Century*, but experts say the life of
the plant may range from 30 to 60 yean depending on
moisture availability during the period. The long stem and
blooms grow rapidly at the end, sapping the plant Small,
independent plants have sprung up around the old plant and
have begun the new cycle.

GRAPEVINE, Texas (AP)
- A pale and fragile Mickey
Hays returned home from
South Africa after a joyful
and perhaps final, reunion
with another young boy in an
old man’s body.
The tiny 10 - year - old
returned Thursday from
Orkney, South Africa, where
he had gone June 21 to visit 9
- year - old Fransie Geringer.
The boys suffer from
progeria, a rare genetic
disorder that dwarfs them,
makes them wrinkled and
bald, ages them rapidly and
allots them a probable
lifespan of less than 20 years.
“Leaving yesterday was
hard,” said Mickey’s mother,
Cindy Edwards, 28. “Mickey
and Fransie felt they would
probably never see each other
r“* ~
and both families were too.
“We were there 2V4 weeks
and we got to see them play
together, fight together and
love together,” she said.
“They’re so much alike.”
The two boys met six
months ago after Americans,
moved by news stories about
Fransie, raised money to
falflll his dream of meeting
Pinocchio at Disneyland.
Mrs. Edwards said the
families would correspond,
but added they had made no
plans tor another reunion
because of the huge expense
of the trip. ____

“They better.”

American World Airways in
the United States and a car
dealership in Johannesburg,
South Africa, paid for Mickey
and his family to fly to South
Africa for the reunion.
“They are very special kids
to the families,’’ Mrs.
Edwards said, “and what
Herman (Geringer, Fransie’s
father) thinks about - what
we all think about - b, ’What
if something happens to one
of them? What will the other
one do?”’
Her tiny son, his bald head
covered by his ever - present
again. Both boys were crying baseball cap, rested in her lap
as she told reporters at the
Dallas - Fort Worth Regional
Airport how wonderful it was
to talk to another parent-of a
progeria victim.
. “There b nothing like
setting down with someone
who can say, T know how
you feel.* And they really do
know, because Fransie and
Mickey are so much alike,”
she said before she and
Mickey returned home to
Hallsville, about 140 miles
east of Dallas.
