FIRST BORN AT ZOO
Boby Gorilla in New Home
BY JERRY O'LEARY, Jr.
Star Staff Writer

The first baby gorilla ever
born in the Washington Zoo is
attempting to adjust himself
to life in a Prince Georges
County, Md, bungalow with
his human foster parents, their
little girl, a dog, a baby CHM
panzee and an orange canary.
For lack of a better name,
Mr.. and Mrs. Bernard Gala
CHER, of 1104 Fifty-first ave-
nue., Hillside, Md, are calling
the little male gorilla just THE
Baby" The 5-pound 434 -ounce
gorilla was born early yeSter-
day in the National Geological
Park where Mr.. Gallagher is
the keeper in charge of the
apes. ?
1t was only the fourth time
a baby gorilla has been born in
captivity, and the second time
it has ever happened in the
United States.
Will Stay in Incubator
Mrs. Louise Gallagher, 81,
herself the daughter of a ZOO
keeper, is in full charge of the
baby gorilla until further no
tice. She has two children,
Donald, 10, and Sherry Louise, 7.
Lulu, a six-month-old Chin
panzee, one of three which Mrs.
Gallagher has raised, still lives
in the Gallagher household,
along with the rest of the fam
lily, the dog and the canary.
Lulu, in fact, is already show
ing signs of being jealous Of
the gorilla who will be her
companion for many months to
come.
The gorilla was not six hours
old before he was turned over
to Mrs. Gallagher, whose job
description for the Zoo calls
for physical contact in ma
ternal manner" That means
she will raise THE Baby" with
tender, loving care on formula
milk in an incubator with all
the hard work that goes with
three-hour feelings and dia-
per problems.
Taken Away From Parents
DR.. Theodore Reed, director
of the Zoo, said the public will
not be able to see "The Baby"
for at least six months, maybe
longer.
He explained that the little
gorilla was taken from its par
ents only because it was OBJ
vious they we're unwilling or
unable to care for it.
The long-awaited birth &C.
Cured some time after 6 am.
yesterday and was discovered
by Keeper Melvin Kilby at $3.50
am. Mr.. Kilby had checked
the cage of Nikumba, the IA
Their, and Moka, the 240-pound,
eight-year-o old mother, at 6
o'clock. The birth was unob-
served and unassisted.
Mr.. Kilby had a list of key
people to call and he got busy:
DR.. Reed, Headkeeper Ralph
Norris, Mr.. Gallagher, George
Washington University hospital
obstetrician James Sites, AS
Sociate Zoo Director j. Lear
Grimmer and DR.. Leonard S.
Carmichael, secretary of the
Smithsonian Institution.
Mr.. Norris had already left
home and learned of the birth
when he entered the Connect
cut avenue gates. He ran all the
way down the hill to the gorilla
cage in the Small Mammal
House.
Mr.. Gallagher said he al
ways honks his car horn at
the gorillas as he pulls up to
park near their cage. When
only the male appeared in re-
Spouse to his honking. he said
he knew the stork had arrived.
Moka was grading the baby
in her arms when Mr.. Gal
lagher arrived, but she soon
placed her offspring in the
middle of the cage and APP
peared to lose interest. How
ever, every time Nikumba tried
to approach the baby gorilla,

Residents of the Woodmoor

cuddling the gorilla in the back
seat.
Meanwhile, Mrs. Gallagher
heard the news by telephone
and had everything prepared.
The incubator was set for a
constant rs degrees. The blan-
kets were made ready. The
diapers were laid out. She be-
gan preparing a batch of
Bremil, a formula milk used by
human babies.
The photographers came aft
er a while. They found The
Baby" had a face only a
mother. or Mrs. Gallagher,
would find attractive. He has
a slanted head, tipped with sill
yer fur and a pushed-in face
as all gorillas do. He has no
teeth, but very nice brown eyes.
The rest of him is hairy and
squat, pretty much what you'd
expect in baby ape.

Moka body-blocked her mate
to keep him away, Mr.. Gala
CHER said.
1t was at 7 am. that DR..
Reed made the decision to take
the baby away from his
parents.
The feat was accomplished
by Mr.. Norris who always car
rieS a pack of chewing gum
for Nikumba and Moka. While
he lured them into a side cage
with two sticks of gum, Mr..
Gallagher hurried to the baby
gorilla and brought him out.
He wrapped the baby in a
sterile towel and then in a
blanket.
DR.. Stiles and DR.. Carmichael
examined the baby gorilla close
ly, checking his vision and gen.
eral condition. THE Baby" was
pronounced in excellent shape.
After the checkup, DR.. Reed
drove his own car to the Gal

who apparently will be asked
for an official ruling.
Attorneys wrestling with the
problem here disagree on the
propriety of the church's appli-
cation.
st. Mary'S Catholic School
has asked the Washington
County Board of Education fol
permission to hook its closed
circuit educational televisior
network which for the last five
years has operated with a grant
of about 81 million from the
Ford Foundations Fund for the
Advancement of Education.
Programs Planned Elsewhere
Known as the "Hagerstown
Experiment" the plan was
watched closely throughout the
Nation and has led to estab-
lishment or plans for educa-
tional television elsewhere.
Recent surveys among par
ents, teachers and other groups
have convinced most of the
members of the Washington
County Board of Commission
ers and the Board of Educa-
ton that the programs sue
cess merits continuation with
public funds.
But Edwin H. Miller, attor-
ney for the Board of Educa-
ton, says Maryland law will
not permit the parochial school
to tie into the televiSion pro-
gram since it now is supported
by public funds. The Ford
Foundation grant has expired
THE law" he said, says,
in effect, that all money ap-
propriated by the State shall
be used for public education.
Issue of Costs
Attorney William J. Dwyer
representing St. Mary's, sale
there would be no cost to the
county because the Catholic
school is willing to pay the cost
of the cable connections plus
the cable rental fee.
I'VE are not agreed on the
cost" Mr.. Miller said. There's
more to it than just the con-
|nection fees"
Mr.. Miller cited the cost of
instructors salaries, laboratory
equipment and other material
used on the programs paid for
with public funds.
1.-THE question goes beyond
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1961-09-10

The report urged four rec
concentrations, including pro-
gram to open up" Negro home
financing by United States
Government action. These rec
concentrations are:
/. The Government should
become more actively involved
through education and other
wise" in changing what it
termed the discriminatory
practices of realtors.
2. A study should be made
aimed at guaranteeing persons
housing opportunities in areas
from which they have been dis
placed or other communities.
8. Public building contracts
involving public monies should
guarantee use of the buildings
by all persons.
4. Develop the loan provisions
of the 1854 Housing Act.
( Maryland institutions of
higher education, the report
noted, are gradually enrolling
more non-white students.
But vocational or distribu-
tive education, in Maryland
received a failing grade as far
as Negro-white relationships
were concerned.
Odd Instances Cited
The Old Dominion study
pointed up a number of in
stances, especially in the Dulles
airport and Federal highway
projects in the northern part
of Virginia, where displaced
families, it said. once property
owners, were forced, to become
tenants.
This occurred, the study ex-
planned, because the compen-
sation paid the relocated fam
lilies was not high enough in
the current market for them
to become owners again.
They have thus lost the right
to vote in property owners
election, the study said. The
report asked if persons con-
stitutional rights were not
being infringed upon.

Negro Housing Report
Is Reodied for Release

A report on the Negro hous-
ing picture in the District is
expected to be issued in about
two weeks by the United States
Commission on Civil Rights.
Berl I. Bernhard, staff di-
rector of the national commits
sion, said the study, compiled
by the commissions own en-
ployes would serve to fill the
gap in the Fifty States Re-
port" a State-by-St break
down on human relations is
sued yesterday.
The Fifty States Report"
carried no summary of the hui
man relations picture in the
District. Mr.. Bernhard said
the District study would be one
of a series to be issued peri
odically, by the commission in
various areas - employment,
education, housing and others.
The Fifty States Report" is
a collection of papers sub
mitted by volunteer advisory
groups in various States, and
regarded as raw material" not
bearing the Endorsement of the
commission, Mr.. Bernhard said.
Maryland Report Critical
The Marylan d report was
cauStic in its summation of
housing financing opportuni-
ties for Negroes, while the Vir-
ginia study concentrated on
what were regarded as inequi-
ties in compensation to persons
forced to move from the path
of relocation or road building
projects.
The Maryland report said
that despite the 1948 United
States Supreme Court ban on
restrictive residential cove
nants, subtle" methods were
employed to evade it.
Evasion, said the report, was
carried through by a program
of denial of loans, or loans to
persons of above average in
come. which "precludeS" Ne
groes from operating favorably
or effectively"

added, Its not just a religious
school involved. We have many
private schools. What is tC

The schools representative
recalled, however, that the
Maryland Court of APPEALS has
already upheld an enabling
act permitting st. Marys
County to provide public bus
transportation for parochial
school children.
IF they want us to pay more
than the connecting cost" Mr.
Dwyer said, they ought to be
willing to bargain with us or
what the costs will be. We
should be allowed to put a

ing body so we could have a
say on what is and What is not
to be taught on the programs.

Transit Subsidy Bill
Rescue ATTEMPTED
Mcmillan Tries
ToGet Measure
To House Vote
BY JOHN McKELWAY
Star staff Writer


A last-minute attempt to pull
from House District subcom-
mittee a bin aimed at subSidiz-
ing D. c. Transit, Inc, is being
staged by Representative Nc
MILAN, chairman of the full
committee.
On Friday, Mr.. Mcmillan had
his secretary, Clayton Gasque,
begin a telephone poll of mem
bers of the District Committee
over a bill passed Thursday by
the Senate.
The bill calls for an annual
subsidy of about 100000 to
D. c. Transit. Transit officials
feel the system is due the
subsidy because of its program
of carrying school children at
reduced fare.
Action Is Unusual
Mr.. McMillan's action is
unusual in that a subcomit-
tee, headed by Representative
Dowdy. Democrat of Texas,
had, after hearings, decided to
take no action on the proposal.
But if he can get the approx
al of enough members of the
full committee, Mr.. Mcmillan
can call up the bill for a vote
tomorrow in the House and
override the subcommittee. He
has scheduled four other Dis
trict bills for action and coulc
slip in the transit bill.
1t was the opinion Of Mr..
Dowdy, in explaining the COM
mittee's action two months ago,
that D. C. Transit was able,
under its franchise, to seek a
12.5 cent school fare.
The company has never re-
quested an increase in the
school fare-currently set a 10
cents per pupil-although the
franchise spells out that it is
entitled to charge school chill
dren half the adult fare-now
set at Is cents cash and 20
cents on a token basis.
L.. Rate of Return
The Senate bill provides that
the subsidy would be paid by
District taxpayers only if 1t
does not boost company profits
above the reasonable" rate OF
return fixed by the Washington
Metropolitan Transit Commits
sion.
Previously. and before the
Metropolitan Transit Commits
sion started to function. the
Public Utilities Commission set
this rate of return at 40 per
cent.
D. c. Transit, Inc. has ar
gued it is entitled to a return
OF 612 per cent return on it's
gross operating revenues. The
matter is still before the courts.
The Senate bill hands to the
Transit Commission authority
to fix the subsidy according to
its own assessment of the profit
percentage rather than freez-
ing the determination by stat
ute.
Chance of Fight
Passage of the Senate bill by
the House tomorrow would
send the bill to the President
for signature.
There is some chance of a
fight over the bill if Mr. Nc
MILAN is able to collect enough
votes to report the bill to the
House.
Members of Mr.. Dowdy's sub
committee who were firmly
against the subsidy proposal in
cluded Representative st. Ger
main, Democrat of Rhode Is
land and Republican Represen-
tatives Broyhill of Virginia and
Harsha of Ohio.
