Co. C Defeats
Fighting 610
Easily 53 to 19
Traveling out to Ag College to
take on the 610th Training Group
from the Lincoln Air Base, Com
pany C from the library returned
with an easy 53 to 19 victory over
the fliers. The game was played
at four o'clock yesterday after
noon in the Ag gym, instead of
in the coliseum as planned.
The Smithmen's starting' team
of Dobrer and Calkins at for
ward, Lind at center, and Bur
stein and Burdette in the guard
spots, jumped right off into the
lead, the winners ran the score to
16-0 before the airmen registered
a field goal. Big Cliff Lind was
the scoring sparkplug for the C
men, dumping in 17 points in the
little more than half of the game
that he played. Everyone on the
bench saw action against the out
classed but game Air Base team.
At the half, the score stood at
28 to 10, with Mullenax and Boyd
dropping in two field goals apiece
for the 610th.
Second Five Works Weii.
C Company's second five, com
posed of Maxwell and Lampshire
in the forward slots, big George
Bosnia at center, with Stynes at
one guard and Kling and Peterson
alternating at the other, took over
in the closing minutes of the first
half, and started off the second
stanza. Bosnia showed promise in
the pivot spot, tossing in four
field goals.
The Air Corps crew also tossed
their whole squad in late in the
second period. The losers were
handicapped by lack of practice
time, though they're playing regu
larly in the league at the base.
One of their regulars, Lieutenant
Hungerf(5rd, was unable to play.
They stayed in there all the way
fighting, but just couldn't match
the experience and conditioning of
the AST quintet.
Lind Leads Scoring.
Besides Lind's 17 points, Milt
Bobrer played a good floor game
and added 9 counters to the total.
Bosnia had 8 and the rest was dis
tributed quite evenly. Sergeant
Mullenax led the airmen's offense
with 6 points, while Boyd and
Nomnensen registered two field
goals apiece.

STAR Men Defeat;
Third Straight Win
Although handicapped by the
loss of two of their players, the
STAR quintet won a 29-10 victory
over Company A on Friday night
in the coliseum. It markn the third
consecutive win for a greatly im
proved STAR team.
Company A also showed speed
and a sparkling passing attack,
which, however, was thoroughly
throttled by the STARs' airtight
defense.
STAR
Notes
BY SGT. C. D. SHOKES.
The STAR unit lost probably
the best public relations man it
ever had last Thursday when
Sergeant Shokes was assigned to
Georgetown university. For the
past three months- Sergeant
Shokes kept us informed on all
the activities at the STAR unit,
not only in the Daily Nebraskan,
but also in the Lincoln newspa
pers. His articles became well rec
ognized and were climaxed when
Professor Wimbeily asked him to
write something for the Prairie
Schooner. Perhaps readers of this
popular literary magazine wiu
soon see the article on Gullah, a
Negro dialect, by Sergeant Shokes.
Survey STARs' Hobbies. -A
survey of the STAR men's
hobbies proved more interesting
than a bunch of recruits, we
found all sorts of characters, from
demonologists to mental telepath
ists. These two were the most ah
sorbing and their tales would
even put to shame the radio pro-
gram "Inner Sanctum." A num
ber of men listed "women as
their hobby.
Quintet Triumphs.
The STAR quintet really found
its mark last Tuesday evening
when it rolled to a score of 53-27
over a fighting Air Corps team
at the Coliseum. The game was
hard fought all the way in spite
of the lop-sided figures. At times
the Air Corps put up a brilliant
defense, which momentarily
stopped the STARs.
This is the second straight win
for the STARs, after two previous
defeats. They are no longer the
"green" quintet which started
playing three weeks ago. The boys
are now a working unit and hope
to erase their earlier setbacks.
From the exhibition of play they
displayed against the Air Corps
they proved they are in the run
ning for the basketball champion
ship among the Army units sta
tioned at the University of Ne
braska. The STAR team is com
posed of Lewis Green, Dave
Preuss, John Bottorf, Harry
Brickman, Fred Cassidy, Kenny
Elson, R. Long, and C. M. Steph
ens; all of whom played a de
cisive part last Tuesday in keep
ing 'em frying.

has been truly inspirational in the ma

it beyond doubt not only one of the
best magazines of its kind in the mid
