Fearless Fagan Heading Back to California
Fearless Fagan the wandering lion will board a plane soon to return to California from Columbus Ohio where he resided at the Columbus Zoo. He arrived by train earlier this year after his former handler Pvt Floyd Humeston was inducted into the Army. The lion appeared at a San Francisco drive in theater and in Columbus night clubs until police halted the shows under an old ordinance.
