Description
That speck in the top of that tree is Sam, a pet monkey of the H.T. Andersons, 3228 Wimberly. Sam got out Monday and cavorted in the tree for four hours while people tried to entice him down with food. Center, John Wesley Hopkins, 5, son of Mr and Mrs Billy Hopkins, 330 Berry, tempts Sam with a banana but the monkey would have none of it until the owners, right, attracted his attention with his favorite morsels. He came down reluctantly and was captured. Monkeys
