ived in the region of Nebraska about J
alf a million years ago, just before
he earliest evidences of man in the )
vorld, has just been discovered by
v geologist, Harold J. Cooke. It is J

listory is arranging to send an exavating
party of three to Nebraska,
n command of Albert Thompson, to

tlentiful finds may be uncovered.
According to Dr. Clark Wissler,
urator of anthropology of the Amercan
Museum, these teeth show the
mthropoid apes migrated to America
ver some land connection from Asia,
irobably, in the vicinity of Alaska,
ust as did the Mongoloid races, which
ere apparently the first human bengs
on the American continents.
