cate with their librarians and re-
quest stops.

checked out. Those who borrow
will be responsible for the care

the game in the financial dis
trict. He had the television
chimpanzee named Zippy and a
young female chimp, and the
idea was to have them shaking
dice and playing the game in
the ground-fioor window Of a
brokerage house. Conservative
brokers and Wall Street leaders
objected strongly, however, and
the publicist had to take his two
simians and the game to Battery
Park, wnere they were trailed
and surrounded by a big lunch
hour crowd. Zippy Immediately
set to yanking the hair Of a blond
model who was along. broke a
news camera and offered to fight
anyone in the crowd. Snowy, the
younger chimp. contented her
self with eating several million
dollars worth Of the games paper
money and swallowing one OF
the red dice. A Park Depart
ment attendant soon arrived and
threatened the law if the stunt
wasn't moved Immediately.
Zippy in a final criticism
booted Snowy off her chair and
then united and stole the Park
Department mans shoelace.
