Photograph caption dated July 23, 1958 reads, "Neppy 'nose' she has ball under control, but her side-kick Kipper, right, eyes situation as if he isn't too sure things are going to stay that way. Cindy stretches her neck out getting ready to catch ball as soon as Neppy knocks it up into air. Trainer Dole applies little body. English just to help his team along. Seals are one of easiest trained animals."; See images #00116072 through #00116075 for all photos in this series.
