THE FIRST GORILLA EVER BORN IN CAPTIVITY RESTING IN ITS NEW GLASS INCUBATOR. THE COLUMBUS ZO O 'S BABY GORILLA LIES ON HER STOMACH, A POSITION SHE IS PUT IN FOLLOWING EACH FEEDING The h isto ric o ffs p rin g of C h ris tin a and the Baron is doing fin e in the zoo at Columbus, Ohio FATHER, THE BARON, IS II YEARS OLD, 3 8 0 LBS. The eyes of the world's zoo keepers were turned with interest and envy toward the Columbus Zoo where a historic blessed event had taken place. There Christina became the first gorilla ever to have a baby in captivity. Before Christina. captive gorillas had never even been mated, and little was known about the animals' gestation period and infant life. But last April the Columbus keepers noticed that Christina and Baron, a neighboring ape, were eying one another and they let her into his cage. Exactly 258 days later Warren Thomas, a veterinary student, entered Christina's cage and discovered she had given birth to a threepound, four-ounce baby. By blowing his own breath in the infant's lungs, Thomas started it breathing. Zoo Superintendent Earl Davis improvised an incubator to keep the baby warm and put it on a diet of a milk formula and boiled water suggested by a local pediatrician. Zoo people from other cities flocked to Columbus and Davis proudly passed out the cigars. At 3 weeks old the unnamed baby--a female--could gurgle, suck its thumb and play with its toes. Soon it will take on a more substantial diet of Pablum. MOTHER CHRIST INA IS NINE, WEIGHS 2 6 0 LBS.
