An eight foot Boa Constrictor gave birth to 30 young snakes at a Tampa pet shop drawing amazement from inside and outside observers. The mother had arrived from South America a day earlier for delivery to a snake collector. Proprieter James M. Coker said it was the first known instance of a Boa giving birth in captivity. Monkeys nearby caused a minor disturbance when their cage was toppled during the event. A separate note mentions a Utah execution case where death by hanging or firing squad may be chosen.
