Dinner For Three
October 17, 1960
It's fresh-killed table d'goat as Elsa the lioness, heroine of Joy Adamson's current bestseller, Born Free, feeds her three cubs. The lion family was interrupted at supper when Mrs. Adamson, who raised Elsa to maturity as a pet and set her free, dropped in on their jungle home in Kenya. Unlike their mother Elsa, the cubs, two males and a female, are being raised wild, and Mrs. Adamson resists the temptation to touch the young ones for fear they'll be spoiled.
