Photograph was edited for publication purposes Photograph caption dated April 11, 1962 reads, "It was 3 p.m. Tuesday. Three steers in a small corral at 12644 Riverside Dr., North Hollywood, ambled into nearby Valley Doctors Hospital parking lot. Police shooed two steers back in the old corral, but a third, Monford, shown above, had to be lassoed and tied to a radio car driven by officer T. D. Armstrong. Monford's owner, Mike Short, 17, off attending a Future Farmers of America meeting at North Hollywood High School, was summoned, and Monford, the cantankerous 750-pound steer, was tugged back home."
