Webster Evans tp build up the municipal zoo at Nay Aug park, were charaeterizen by council Thursday as "regrettable," and the city fathers expressed the hope that "something can be done" to eliminate the apparent opposition of the executive to the zoo work. i The comment came after Dr. Evans' letter to council, tell'ing his difficulties with Director LaFontaine, had been read by City Clerk William P.

Huester, "It is regrettable indeed that there is an antagonism on the part of the director to Dr. Evans' work," said Councilman M. E. Sanders. "There is some unknown reason for and we should find out it Upon suggestion of President Thomas H.

Evans' communication to' the icnuncilmen is as follows: Members of the Uty Cojincil. Scranton. ra. Honored Sirs On June G. I received a wilier from the IJepartment of Puniii: Works not to donate any more animals to the zoo.

Similar orders were issued to the Zoulotf ieri so'. ioty. to the detriment of the zoo and lie city at larjip. In this way we have lost many valuable exhibits and the eootl will of many actual, and many more potential. fi iendK of the zoo.
