Hook, I thought it was a broom stick.
This photo was taken in the winter of 1968-69. In the summer of 1969 I presented Carolyn in a little routine in the new Children's Zoo in St. Louis. Buckles was downtown at Kiel Auditorium for Sid Kellner and came over to visit. He was complementary about the elephant. He said the fellow next to him mentioned I didn't have to touch the animal to get her to perform. Buckles said it was probably because she feared the "harpoon" I had and recommended a smaller bull hook. I made up a light hook that resembled a cane for a tap dance routine and still didn't have to touch Carolyn much. A guest then asked if the hook was electric. You can't win.
