I'm not sure who that is on the elephants but from left to right underneath we have Shorty Hinkle, Jimmy James, another unidentified (Toby Jorio?) and Lou Nagy with Kenny Dodd in the foreground.
I would guess from Jimmy's makeup that this was taken in the mid-60s. That and the fact that Bernie Kallman isn't there, leading me to believe that this was taken before he joined the show.

This picture was in their 1969 program, although it could have easily been from another time. The guy under the elephant is listed as Balila. I don't know anything about him.
Balilla was a S.A. clown and only on for one season. Bernie was away for this season as he went into the shipyards for the Government to help build a cable layer. They needed expert advice I suppose. Bernie was on and off the show a few time during his career for one reason or another.
