Every time the repairmen went out to try and track down the culprits, they came back empty handed. But one day the light dawned, and a telephone pole at the zoo was raised by about four feet: the culprit they were looking for happened to be George, a giraffe. Georges 18 feet tall and all of it apparently playful, Liked to grab the telephone wires with his tongue and let them twang back. The wires would get tangled up and eause telephones to ring all over the place. They stopped when the wires unwound. BANANA SPECIAL 2 lbs. 25c PLEASE NOTE: Dr. R.
