There are two errors in the code you posted.

* You called clear before allegro_init, this won't work.

* That call used BITMAP* back before it pointed to a bitmap.
(The load_bitmap call creates one, before that, back's value is
undefined.)

BTW, there is really no need to clear a bitmap if you load it from a file.
Simply remove the clear(back); line and it should work.
