Description

The Forest Park Zoo's new baby elephant doesn't yet have a permanent name. Until then, most people are calling her "Cutie Pie." She is getting acquainted with the zookeepers and the other animals. L. N. Williams, assistant at the zoo is astride the baby elephant, as she is greeted by Queen Tut. Assistant Zookeeper Julian Frazier looks on. The elephants are "shaking" trunks through the bars as they joyfully greet each other for the first time. Mr. Williams is wearing a peaked hat, a button-up shirt, and trousers. Mr. Frazier is dressed in a peaked cap, a short sleeve shirt, and trousers.
