(AP)-For little Pa-, tricia Kenney the exciting trip to see the clumsy circus elephants turned into a moment of pain and and horror as a snarling leopard swiped out with a paw and dragged the screaming girl to its barred cage. I just saw this paw come out and catch the little girl," related .Mrs. Joseph Fitzgerald, who took Patricia. 6. and seven of her chums to the circus grounds Tuesday. "Then I heard her scream. It was terrible. That awful cat could have got any of them." Patricia, daughter of Mr. and .Mrs. Francis Kenney of nearby Utica, was reported in serious condition in a Peru hospital.

Airs, fitzgerald told this story: She was driving her son Thom as, 8, Patricia and six other neighborhood children home from swimming lesson when they de cided to stop at a circus spon sored by the Peru American Legion. The kids wanted to see the elephants and walk through an unused circus ring surrounded by high canvas wall, she said. Mrs. Fitzgerald said that while she drove the car to the other side of the ring the children stopped to gaze at a cage with eight leop ards. She returned in time to witness the attack. "There were no ropes or any body around the cage when the kids walked up to it. I just saw this paw come out and catch the little girl. Then I heard her scream. It was terrible. 1 froze. The other children were crying. 'The thing tore her shoe off. She was conscious all the time. A man came running when he heard Patricia scream, but he had to run 300 feet. He tried to beat the cats off from outside the cage, but couldn't. Then another man ran up, went inside the cage and drove the cats away by beating them over the head with a chair. Police later identified the first man as Jack Mann, an attendant Animal trainer Jack Harkness en tered the cage and fended off the beasts. Police said Joe Cuno, owner of the animal act, insisted that ropes had been strung around the cage to keep the public away. Any child would have gone close to look," said Mrs. Fitzger ald.
