10 May 1952, USA — Motion picture actor Steve Cochran tries to interest Jackie, the lion, in a three layer cake, at a recent luncheon, but the king of beasts only sniffed and declined on May 10, 1952. He may have had a close supply of fresh meat, which was nearby in mind, but he behaved himself like a gentleman. The luncheon was given for members of the press.
