O GG0 o o O o o O o O o o o o ou C o o Gorilla Born c Said Already Columbus, Ohio OJ.Ri The torilla born at the local zoo last Saturday already is getting into rrnwhief. O "She is beginning to move her .little hand and the first thing J "We know, she will turn over a bucketof ol water in her bed," zoo Superintendent Earl Davis said todar. D c3"i don t know how long we Cc"an keep her in the incubator," DSyis said, '"the way she squirms c:)i(!Td twists. She can almost turn ovr now and I know we will ohave to make some kind of cnanges. e O The gorilla, the only one knowg to be Ymm in captivity, 01 kept Jn a regular baby incu batoroobtained from a local hos pital. She probably will get a (Srger btt soon. The water con- tainer is to keep tho humidity u "'just right." VisitoroCarafully Screened Zoojogis wh thought it fould Se impossibly for a gorilla Ho be bofjj in captivity have sent in Zoo At Cleveland Getting Into Mischief hundreds of telegrams, some from Europe wanting to know everything possible about this little animal. "There is a lot we don't know" the somewhat sleepy Davis ex plained. He worked nights dur ing the holidays so other em ployees could have time off. The 3' 2-pound baby and its mother, Christina, are "getting along fine." Davis said. The Bar on, the proud papa, has become "quite a show-off" for the ben efit of the few persons allowed to see the gorilla. Davis said that newsmen, pho tographers, newsreel and tele vision cameramen, and zoo of ficials are "carefully screened" to make sure they do not have colds. She'j 'All Gums' "We wouldn't let anybody who sneezes within a mile of that gor illa," Davis said. "There isn't anything at Fort Knox that would buy these animals ..." Usually gorillas cost from So, 000 to $7,000, Davis explained and increase in value as they grow older. A contest is being sponsored by the Columbus Citizen, a Scripps-Howard newspaper, to choose a name for the gorilla. The winner will receive a S100 government bond from movie ; actor Clark Gable, a native Ohioan. Zoo officials are giving the gorilla, which they affectionate ly call Baby, the same attention and treatment given to human in fants. "She is all gums," Davis said. "She has considerable force in those gums. Boy, can she really gum a nipple." She is being fed by bottle. Almost everyone finds him self in a situation where he needs facts and needs them fast.
