CLEANERS
r S. Utk Cm. H. Ubm
A lot has happened since we ar- i
rived at the home of corn and wild I
Indians last September. Our first1
reactions were confused. We were!
glad to be given a chance to con-
tinue our college training under j
army sponsorship and to prepare
ourselves for the jobs which
Uncle Sam has in store for us. But
most of us were far from home,
and few had more than heard of
Nebraska.
A contingent of AST engineers
were completing their first term
when we arrived. The Army Air
Corps' 348th CTD was in full
swing. The two groups weren't
even on speaking terms. The
STAR Unit was a steady clearing
house for soldier-students, and
was functioning well. Then came
the Nebraska undergrads back to
their Campus to find khaki-clad
students marching and singing
their way to classes. What would
be the result of the combination
of civilian and military students
on the same campus?
Reminiscing Awhile.
Perhaps a few recollections
from the past five months' events
here at Nebraska will show us
that we have little reason to
V'gripe.' and. maybe we even
should feel a little bit happy that
we did end up on the friendly
Cornhusker campus.
The first step for the establish
ing of relationships between the
trainees and the students was the
appearance of an army page in
te Daily Nebraskan on Septem
ber 23. Three days later it was an
nounced from Col. Murphy's office
that subscriptions for the paper
had been purchased for all of the
soldiers at. the. University.. The
Air Corps also subscribed 100.
A new link between the GIs and
the Huskt rs were the returning

had a contest to choose names i'or

the following tags; "Gremland"

AST Soldiers Contribute
$113 to March of Dimes
The "March of Dimes" thru the
local AST Units resulted in the
contribution of 1,136.1 dimes by
the soldiers, Col. J. P. Murphy,
commandant of the unh'ersity
ASTP, announced Wednesday.
The $11361 for the National
Foundation for Infantile Paralysis
fund, will be added to the Lin
caaLw county donations. Each of
ficer and enlisted man in the
ASTP program contributed.
Fie Cailre Promoted
From headquarters of the Army
Specialized Training, came the an
nouncement yesterdi-y of a num
ber of temporary promotions of
enlisted men. They are as follows:
Sgt. Walton V. Hill. ASTU
STAR SCU 3702, to Staff Ser
geant; Cpl. Berthold J. Erody,

University of California has es
tablished a record of putting 50,

book, led to 597 sales to AST men.
The popular sorority hour
dances were well received by both
sides during the fall, and on Hal
lowe'en night, the first University
soldiers' dance was held in the
Union. Nebraska's cornfed coeds
proved to be very charming host
esses and some of the soldiers
seem to have made a hit, in spite
of their uniforms. About the same
time, the army men gave their
unanimous consent to the Student
Union membership plan and were
given two Coliseum dances a
month, as well as other Lahr spe
cials, for their 50-cent pay deduc
tion each month. The first trainee
Coliseum dance under the new
plan went over well on November
6.
The army intramural basket
ball round-robin tourney got un
derway in mid-November, includ
ing teams representing A, B and
C companies, the Field House, and
the 348th CTD. Competition was
keen; a good brand of basketball
was uncovered.
Several days later five army
students were chosen to work with
the Cornhusker staff on the mili
tary section, and six were selected
to serve on the student union
board.
Miss ASTP O'Kay.
One of the biggest events of the
fall was the selection of Kay Det
weiler as Miss ASTP of the Uni
versity of Nebraska. The soldiers
were in on another election when
three of the "stocking girls" were
"awarded" to men in uniforms at
the Moitar Board Christmas Ball.
This was the climax to a socially
successful fall season for the coeds
and the army men.
Khaki entered another phase of
student life en the campus when
a half a hundred men joined the
UN chorus in the presentation of
Handel's "Messiah" on December
12.
Of interest to sports fans was
Company B's victory in the first
round of the army basketball
tourney, with C company in second
place.
P.O.E. Here We Come.
The middle of December brought
forth a clever little tumor on the
soldier side of the campus the
story was that the ASTP was go
ing to be liquidated and soon.
We're still here, so it looks like it
was just a rumor.
The Air Corps made a success
ful entry into the field of journal
ism on December 18 with their
publication of "The Aircordet," a
paper by and for the aviation stu
dents of the 34Sth CTD.
The Army "specialists" in the
libe and the field house start ?d
the new year off right with a fur
lough during the first week Jn
January. Meanwhile, Nebraska
sent 33 more of her ROTC sons
off to OCS.
The fourth war loan drive met
with an enthusiastic response
from the AST Units on campus,
as they contributed $19,500 in the
month of January alone, not far
from averaging a $25 bond per
man. Of ijiterest to this same
group is the announcement that
credit of about 12 semester hours
will be given for ea.h term of GI
work applicable toward a college
degree.
Local Talent and More.
Latest undergrad-soldier pro
duction is the War Show, sched
uled for three performances this
week-end. Plenty of coed and
army talent are promised, with an
all-mirttary band which is definite
ly on the swing side providing the
music.
Yes, a lot has happened. The
Air Corps ard the ASTs are actu
ally talking to each other, occa
sionallyit's a pleasant change.
The last Air Corps class has en
tered; the detachment will wind
up its UN training sometime in
June. Regular army men are being
transferred from college training
to active 'duty, and more ROTC
men are leaving in quest of gold
bars every week.
What does the future have In
store for Nebraska and the train
ees here? Only time will tell
but it'a bound to- be interesting,
and at taut the ASTP shews no
signs of folding up for quite some
time.
"C" Wins Crown
From Co. 1, 49-3&
Driving to a 49-36 win over a scrappy B Company last night.
Company C's powerful quintet won the second round of the army
tournament, and settled a persona! grudge with the Hustlers. Led
by Dobrer and Lind' offensive play, and sparked by the brilliant
defensive game of Burstein, the boys in blue drew first blood.

Notes
By Pvt. J. A. Paparella.
All good things must come to
an end and so Patsy Noto's de
parture from the ag campus finds
me in the position of "bucking"
for acting pfc. As you know,
Patsy seemed to go around with
the motto of "The impossible we
do immediately, the miraculous
takes a little longer." I don't know
mow good that motto will apply
in my case, but we shall see.
NBI Dance Great Success.
The NBI dance last week was
one of the main highlights. Some
65 Ag men attended the dance in
the spacious upper floor of the
National Business Institute and
as usual, "a good time was bad
by all." At any rate, it was a wel
come relief from the three day
restriction which was lifted just
at the right time. Some of us were
really ''sweating" that one out
That C.C.N.Y. shipment of men
to New York City last week really
caused a few broken hearts on this
ag campus. Was it Rubine who
was singing "Give My Regards to
Broadway?" However, Noto was
the joker who was dreaming the
night before of putting nickels in
the subway coin-styles. Was he
in for a rude awakening the next
morning when he discovered he
did not make the list of shippers.
Gotdbrick, GI, M-1.
It seems that a certain Snaf
sergeant is working oa the literary
masterpiece of his army career. A
short condensation finds it to be
a book, yes. a book on the bene
fits of "Boldbricking on G.I. time. '
In it there are several chapters
devoted to: (1). How to work
eight hours a day and still spend
four of them in the barracks sleep
ing. (2) How to get a 50 day
furlough by telling the colonel
you will go over his head. (3)
What to tell the "doc" when you
go on sick call. This book ought
to prove very interesting; I can
guarantee the sale of at least one
copy.
ASTP a la Chemistry.
What a lot of the fellows here
would like to know, was who was
the phantom chemist who tacked
the following equation on the bul
letin board unnoticed last week?
2 ASTP-02 2 APO-2TS
That sounds about as logical as
the two STARS I heard arguing
the other day which was quicker
the hand or the eye, and the
brighter of the two pointed out
that the hand was quicker than
the eye. he used as proof the fact
Uiat there were so many black
eyes.

and were never headed.
Both teams started off slowly
midway in the first period "C"
had built up a 10-5 lead, Dobrer
scoring six points and Lind four.
Eig gun for the winners in the
first half was Milt Dobrer, who
dropped in 13 points in a torrid
first stanza. Bob Scheer tossed
in three field goals to pace the
B men. Just before the half, big
Ellis Jessen, "B" center, injured
his foot and had to be removed

backboards. At intermission. "C

Second Half Fast.
The losers came out fighting in
the second half, but could never
close the gap to less than six
points. Suchy came up with two
nice buckets going under the hoop,
and Fuller dropped a couple of
pivot shots, but the Blue's tight
defense was hard to penetrate.
Meanwhile. Company C was doing
a little scoring of its own, aided
by Dobrer's three swish ers from
behind the foul circle, and a one
man rampage by Al Burstein good
fof four baskets. "C" continually
used its fast break to good ad
vantage, with smooth ball han
dling paying good dividends in
close.
Doug Brady made a brief ap
pearance for the losers in the first
chapter, but had gotten out of bed
for the game, and had to retire
after a few minutes. The excellent
guarding of Burstein stood out all
night as he continually bothered
the "B" team, and showed a lot
of fight on the defensive back
board. High scorer and pacemaker
for the losers was Bob Scheer,
with ten points.
The win made it two out of
three for "C" over the Hustlers
and mades it one victory apiece
in the army tournament, with the
third and final round starting
next week. ,
