Summary
Pathe synopsis: ... some more learners - tigers in a cage - and a really good driver, Mary Chipperfield, who is training them to act in films. At Southampton Zoo she’s taming tigers, lion cubs and Teddy, her two-year-old cheetah. We meet Frederick, a bataleer eagle and James, the four-year-old chimp, who gives her a loving kiss before sitting down with her for afternoon tea.
