For any creature of normal size this would be a serious situation. But Bimbo is a whale.

Dally Shows Biggest of the Pacific pilot whales at Los Angeles' seaside Marineland, Bimbo used to provide daily shows with a spectacular finale, leaping into the air from the depths of his three- story tank and slamming back into the 1 water with a seat-shaking splash. For years after his capture in off nearby Santa Catalina was a star--playful; eager to please. Then on Aug. 26, 1963, Bimbo stopped eating. His daily portion of 150 pounds of squid and mackerel went untouched and no one knew why.

For a time there was so that he was saddenp' the deaths of a dolphin and a male whale which shared his tank. On each occasion, he swam around and around in a hours, with the victims flipper in his mouth, seemingly try- ng-to revive it in the way "divers revive drugged sea creatures by walking them through the water. For more than a month Bimbo starved. Whales get not only food water as well from the fish eat, and Bimbo began de- lydrating. After the whale lost almost 1,008 pounds.

Dr. M. E. IVebber, a physician with an interest in whale and dolphin research, was called in on the case. diagnosis: the huge mammal was psychotic.

Dr. Webber used anti-depres sants for Bimbo's down-in-the- dumps periods and tranquilizers .0 calm his agitated moments. "We figured that if 75 milligrams is the average anti-depres- dose for an adult human, i.OOO milligrams would be about for Bimbo," Dr. Webber said. It worked.

Show Is Over Bimbo's eating regularly now-- )ut his days in show business are over. David Brown, Marineland's curator of mammals, has decided retire Bimbo to stud. "What affected him was the raining," Brown now believes. 'He was middle aged when we got him--about 20 years old, and vhales usually live 3(1 to 40 years. He was not as flexible mentally our younger whales." Relieved of training tasks.

Bimbo apparently is cured. But he von't be set free in the ocean. As the biggest whale in captivity Bimbo is still something of ail attraction--and there is always he hope that someday he will become a father.
