Led Astray By Stout
(N.Z. Press Assn.—Copyright) TIEGNMOUTH (England). Police are looking for a drunken parrot, the Associated Press reported. The grey and red African bird, named Bighy Boy, hopped through a window and left home recently. The owners, Mr and Mrs Frank Howard, are not worried about what the tipsy parrot may say. They called in police because the bird, fattened by four years of drinking stout, is too heavy to fly. They fear he will be easy prey for cats.
