'Monster' Display Moved Irving G. Reimann (back to camera in white shirt), director of the University's Exhibit Museum, inspects prehistoric "monster" display which has been moved from the northwest to the southeast end of the exhibit hall. Changes also involved raising the background mural and the anatosaurus skeleton immediately in front of it to higher levels for better viewing. In upright "natural" position between it and the mastodon skeleton in foreground is allosaurus. Totally enclosed in glass, immediately behind the mastodon is the skeleton of the prehistoric rhinoceros, diceratherium. The relocation and improvement in the display was made possible by funding which permitted covering windows at the far end of the hall from the door, behind the mural. (News Photo by Cecil Lockard)

Colorado Quartz, 'Topical' Stamps Irving G. Reimann (photo at left), director of the University's Exhibit Museum since 1956, examines a sample of Colorado quartz crystal in his office. The heavy wooden bookcases behind him are remnants of the display cases used throughout the museum before he took over. At right, the "topical" stamp collection picturing animals, birds and wildlife in a fourth-floor hall of the University's Exhibit Museum shows that philately can be educational.

Although it is rather commonly supposed that the venomous copperhead snake (left) inhabits the woods of Michigan, Irving G. Reimann, newly appointed prefect at the University Museum, points out that there is no authentic report of this species in the state. It is often confused, he relates, with the non-poisonous Michigan milksnake (right) which resembles it except in color. The copperhead is mottled brown and copper, while the milksnake is mottled mahogany and cream-colored. New specimens of both snakes are included in the University Museum exhibits which are presently undergoing an extensive replanning and expansion.

Mighty Big Mural: After a visit to the University's Exhibit Museum, youngsters in a first grade class in Nankin Mills School, Garden City painted this 24-foot dinosaur mural. It is on display on the museum's fourth floor and will remain there until next Wednesday. That's Museum Director Irving G. Reimann at the right. He's pointing to the type of dinosaur for which the bones are available in Utah- if the museum had the $2,000 price.
