Ape Won’t Use Artificial Arm At Seattle Zoo
A Siamang ape named Sai Buri, missing her left arm, was fitted with an artificial arm at nine months old but rejected it a year later. Zoo officials, noting Sai adapts well without the limb, decided to discontinue use. The animal, whose father bit off the arm, travels mainly by swinging, and handlers had tried daily training with a hooked elbow-length prosthesis.

Proxmire criticizes OMB for taxpayer funded dining subsidies
Sen William Proxmire awards the Golden Fleece to the Office of Management and Budget for allowing top federal executives to dine in 22 private government facilities at an annual taxpayer cost exceeding 2.3 million dollars. OMB spokesman Ed Dale notes prior concerns and Carter era explanations about working lunches. Proxmire cites 82 percent subsidy of dining room costs and urges end to subsidies to set a frugal example.
