Zoo Elephant Mauls
Little Girl To Death
By FT ---YAN
United Press International
MADISON, Wis. (UFD —
Nickels and dimes of little
children brought Winkie to the
Vilas Park Zoo and in the 16
years she lived there, the
Indian elephant had delighted
thousands of tots,
about the iron-barred cage that
abuut the iron-narreo cage that
housed the 7,500 pound creature
and extending tiny hanc’ t,
holding peanuts and popcorn. A
chicken wire fence was sup
posed to protect the children.
Tuesday was a typical
summer day at the zoo.
Hundreds of children scam
pered about the animal
exhibits and Winkie had her
usual, enthralled audience of
tiny ones.
Three-year-old Ruth Ellen
Freedman, the daughter of
Prof, and Mrs. Ral;' Freed
man of Princeton, N.J., was
one of them. But she carried
her enthusiasm to step too close
and was fatally mauled by the
huge animal.
Moved *r
Ruth Ellen wanted M get
close enough to Winkle to feed
her the popcorn clenched in her
tiny fist.
Witnesses said the girl
climbed under the outer chick
en-wire restraining fence and
stepped within ran;e of Win
kle’s trunk. The trunk snaked
out, and wrapped around Ruth
Ellen’s leg.
The girl was lifted into the
air and dashed to the ground.
Witnesses said the elephant
then trampled me little body.
Ruth Ellen’s mother, the
girl’s 9-;, r-cld brother, and
two other women and their six
children -/atched in horror.
Their helpless screams brought
the animal’s trainer, Mel
Bollig. He entered the cage and
brought out the girl’s body out.
Bollig said as he walked
toward Winkie, the elephant
trumpeted three times and
stepped back “acting like she
h:.d done something wrong.”
No Decision Made
Zoo Director Alvie Nelson
s: '1 later he did not know wh..t
would be done with the
eler’ ant which, he said, h d
been purchased by “the nickels
and dimes of little children.
“There’s been ’0 decision.
There’s nothing you can
Mothers will just nave to
their kids.
“If people go to the
races, they don’t let their kids
run out on the tra.k,” he said
In explaining there were no
plans to make changes in the
restraining fence.
“People are sending their
pre-school children to zoos in
taxicabs nowadays. Times have
changed since you and I were
kids and our mother held our
hands."
Nelson said the elephant
could not rear' its trunk over
the heavy bars but that the
r.aces between the bars—about
one foot — were large enough to
pull a small girl through.

President and Mrs. Kennedy
visited France.
CR Movement >>
Is Split Into
Bitter Factions V
By AL KUETTNER
United Press International
ATLANTA (DPI) —The
rights movement was split
bitter factions today on its
rent battleground of
Smoldering disagreements
ideology flared into an
breach on finances during
marathon meeting that
the end of the Memphis
Jackson “freedom march” Sun
day.
Dr. Martin Luther
Southern Christian
Conference said Tuesday
would have to foot almost the
entire $25,000 to $30,000 bill for
the 260-mile march that
three weeks.
The Rev. Andrew Young,
tive director of SCLC, said in
Atlanta that the Sudent Non
violent Coordinating Committee
(SNCC) and the Congress of
Racial Equality had agreed to
“pay a share” of the expenses,
but SCLC “ended up having to
pay practically all of them.”
Short of Money
Young said SNCC and CORE
apparently were unable to pay
their share “because of a short
age of funds.”
In line with an SCLC policy to
Soft-pedal any fighting within the
civil rights ranks, Young de
clined to discuss details of the
secret meeting of “freedom
march” leaders in Jackson that
lasted most of Monday.
But a source close to the lead
ers said there was angry de
bate, not only over finances,
but over strategy for other civil
rights campaigns in Mi. 'ppi.
There was constant bickering
over the route of the march
after James H. Meredith, the
originator, was wounded by
birdshot and had to leave, and
over whether to abandon King’s
nonviolence philosophy in favor
of a more militant posture.
King and SNCC leader Stokely
Carmichael appeared at times
to be debating the issue in
speeches at various rallies along
the march route. Carmichael
would call for “black power” and
King would come behind him
and admonish Negroes that vio
lence would be a tragic mis
take.
NAACP Ruled Out
The National Association for
the Advancement of Colored
People and the National Urban
League took only small parts in
the march, and march leaders
banned the NAACP from par
ticipating in the final rally.
Roy Wilkins, executive di
rectors of the NAACP, said the
move was a “petty act” and
vowed his group would continue
to fight for civil rights in Mis
sissippi on its own hook "with
out fanfare and without marches
or shoving matches with of
ficials and police.”
Meredith also expressed disen
chantment with the march, and
Young admitted that “we ran '*
into all kinds of problems.
“We felt we were doing all
the work and paying all the
bills, but somebody else was get
ting all the credit while handing
us all the blame for things that
went wrong,” he said.
As a result of the disagree
ments, Young said, “we have
decided to conduct our own cam
paign in Mississippi and let the
others run theirs.”
Young said SCLC would con
centrate in the area of Yazoo
City, Grenada, DeSoto and Tate
counties, CORE would be cent
ered in the Canton area and
SNCC would operate in the
Delta.
