<p> BORN. To Anna Johnson, 29, surrogate mother implanted with
a fertilized embryo from Cris and Mark Calvert; a 6-lb. 10-oz.
boy; in Orange, Calif. The couple paid Johnson $10,000 to bear
their test-tube baby because Cris has had a hysterectomy and
is unable to carry a baby. Last month Johnson reneged on her
end of the deal and sued the Calverts for custody. The court's
decision may serve as a guidepost in what constitutes
parenthood--the child's genetic heritage or the act of
bearing the child.
