London Zoo

LONDON Zoo’s veteran collector, 77-year-old Mr. Wilfred Frost, has left London for New Guinea. He has been commissioned to capture, among other things, about 20 birds-of-paradise.

The Zoo, which at present has only two of the birds, intends to make Mr. Frost’s collection next year’s main attraction at Regent’s Park. A Zoo official said that if a representative collection were ob tained, special quarters would be built for them, II Among the recent births in the Port Moresby Hospital was a son, David Stuart, to Mrs. Stuart Inder, wife of the ABC’s regional journalist for Papua-New Guinea. They already have a daughter.
