  • He's a big cat at city hall. Tawana, a world-travelled cheetah from the Alberta Game Farm near Edmonton gazes at Metro Chairman Paul Godfrey today in City Hall. Godfrey wanted to know why the big cat wasn't there yesterday when he realy needed him—apparently a reference to the three unexpected nominees opposing him for re-election, and the speeches they made. Dr. Al Oeming, game farm director, is to speak tonight in Toronto.
