A former University student
and a native of Lincoln, Al Look,
is the author of a new book en
titled "In My Back Yard" which
is coming off the University of
Denver Press, February 28.
The "back yard" of Look's
book is the colorful area of wes
tern Colorado and eastern Utah
which surrounds Grand Junc
tion, Colorado, where he has
been advertising manager of the
Daily Sentinel for many years.
Th! book is concerned with his
hobby of prowl. ? the mountains
and desert in the area and pick
ing up dinosaur bones and In
dian artifacts.
NU Journalism Student
At the University he studied
journalism and was a member
of the original Sigma Delta Chi
group formed here. At one time
he was editor of the old Aga
wan. He took no scientific courses
at the University.
Look's hobby has resulted in
many important archeological
and paleontological finds. It has
provided material for a book
which is authentic as to scientific
detail and entertaining.
The book is a quick look at
prehistoric times through the
eves of a mnu who knows what

These newspapers, however,
are only those from towns and
cities in Nebraska, A greater
part of the reading room space
is occupied by current papers
from all or most of the major
cities of the United States. The
Christian Science Monitor, the
Des Moines Register, the Chicago
Tribune, the New York Times,
the San Francisco Chronicle
they're all there.
National Papers
This room also contains papers
rfom any state in the Union that
happens to strike the reader's
fancy. Delaware and Rhode Is
land, Texas and Idaho, Maine
and California, Arizona and Ten
nessee the reading room has
them all.
On top of all these, current
events enthusiasts can also find
the Congressional Record, News
week, Time, United States News,
and United Nations News there.
There are pamphlets on radio,
the telephone industry, and eco
nomic problems. Ardent follow
ers of the Fourth Estate can find
all kinds of circulars and maga
zines relating to any phase of
journalism.

a good bit of evidence himself
and who has a sense of humor
and the knowledge that such in
formation can be fun if dusted
off and held up to the light.
Omits Scientific Language
Throwing scientific jargon to
the winds. Look tells of the
double brained idiots with lour
horns on their tails and none on
their heads, of horned crocodiles,
hay eating leopards, beasts with
six horns and the largest land
animal ever found.
Bryan Patterson of the Chicago
museum of Natural History and
Marie Wormington of the Den
ver museum have assisted Look
in some of the finds uncovered
in his back yard.
Look has had the honor of
having a savage looking little
beast in the Chicago Museum
bear his name. It's called Sprac
tolambda looki and he found it
in his back yard. In the field
of archeology he discovered what
proved to be new Indian culture
in eastern Utah.
In the winter of 1949 Al Look
was a principal character in the
Don Winslow cartoon strip. He
was depicted as a dinosaur ex
pert and is again appearing in a
sequence which started October
9.
