Surprising Plan for Sacred Cows at Boston Zoo Fund Drive
Morris Gest plans a special surprise for New England children who funded two sacred cows for Franklin Park Zoo. Cows will be trained to draw a chariot and be dressed in show harness as part of a public reveal. Names suggested by donors include Corina Liberty Polly Dorothy and many more, with Mrs Andrew Peters as judge. Proceeds totaling about 600 dollars will go to the Children’s Hospital.
