Description
Image shows children crowded around the pen at the Forest Park Zoo to meet the new baby elephant. She doesn't yet have a permanent name, but until then, people are calling her "Cutie Pie." Most of the children were from the Lena Pope Home, who were having a party at the zoo. Cutie Pie's apparent smile and uplifted trunk matched the children's excitement. Published in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram evening edition August 28, 1940.
