Rittman Monkeys Were Better Fed
Park superintendent Alpheus Goffinet reports Rittman monkeys, including three moneys, were healthier than 76 Cleveland Zoo animals after the Ohio Humane Society demanded full-time attendants or transfer. The move, prompted by Miss Gertrude Matz’s complaint of underfed mistreatment, drew criticism of local laws and public park attendance declines at Central Park. Akron visitors joined a weekend to discuss animal welfare and the Rit tman case. The piece notes local reunions and visits, including Mr and Mrs Otto Thomas and the Crites family gathering at Orr Park on Sunday June 20.
