EXPEDITION HUNTS
ANCIENT BEASTS
INVADES THE JUNGLES FOR
A PLEIOSAURUS. CREATURE
LIVED IN FORGOTTEN AGE.

Aroused by stories from South
America that a pleiosaurus a huge
monster which thrived ages ago, had
been seen roaming the plains PROBES
sor Elmer S. Riggs, of Chicago, fitted
out an expedition and is now in the
Jungle of Rio Gallegos, Argentina, in
quest of the prehistoric monster.
Nothing even remotely resembling
this creature has ever been observed
bv any man alive if the rumors of
glimpses seen in the South American
jungles are excepted for, scientists
say, the plieosaurus basked in the
sun some 100000 years ago. For
centuries it fought against extinction
with fellow monsters.
Lady Luck Involved.
Bones from which it has been pos
sible to reconstruct entire skeletons
show that the pleiosaurus was a gi-
gantic creature, with great long neck
and jaws filled with wicked teeth.
Riggs and his party expect to remain
in Argentina for at least Is months
and will devote part of their time to
gathering ancient fossils.
Just what they will do if they meet
a pleiosaurus face to face is problem
atcial. Certainly every possible at
tempt will be made to take it alive, to
photograph it and to convey it safely
to a cage in geological park. The
whole undertaking will require prodi-
gious good luck unprecedented cour-
age, skill and resourcefulness.
An Unknown Quantity.
No known methods of capturing
wild beasts can be relied upon by the
Americans, for no one can possibly
know how the pleiosaurus acts when
attacked, nor what is its strength
when aroused to fury. The creature IS
said to be at least 20 feet long, with
great swishing tail and happers or
fins for legs. Reconstructed skeletons
would indicate that it is possessed OF
an enormous strength.
1t is possible that these bizarre
beasts, long believed to be entirely
extinct, have managed to perpetuate
their species down through the end
less centuries, through appalling
changes of climate, through glacial
ice and torrid heat, to the present day.
If so, their strength and ferceness
must be prodigious, and they must
have devoured many a weaker race in
their struggle out OF the primeval
mud. But the answer must await the
return of the Riggs expedition.
