News in Brief: Washington, Baby Gorilla Takes Bow. 'Bobo,' a 5-month-old, 18-pound gorilla, whose parents were killed when he was captured in Africa, is being raised as 'one of the family' by Will Lowman, who hopes to raise him for future sale to circus. White family gaze down at baby gorilla, who is lying in a bassinet or cradle and drinking milk from a baby bottle. VS human baby girl in the bassinet along with the gorilla; she doesn't look too pleased. White man begins to tend to the baby gorilla's diaper; nice shot of him looking the role of competent dad, putting a diaper pin in his mouth while he fidgets with something off-screen (presumably the baby gorilla). Grandfather-aged man cuddles on couch with the gorilla and the little girl, pretends not to notice when the gorilla bites his hand.
