'SNOW LIE
by Lew Davics
DAILY NEBRASKAN
New Goal Set
For 4th Drive
Sales of over $5,000 in war
bonds since February . 1 have
bixisted the total purchased by Ne
braska's ASTP units to $24,621.90
in the current 4th War Loan Drive,
Majdr Harland G. Pattison, War
Bond Officer, disclosed yesterday.
The bonds sold during: the first
two weeks in February amounted
to S5.0:3.75.
With almost two weeks left in
the drive, the ASTP has already
exceeded the quota set for it by
the War Department. It is hoped
that a new goal of $30,000 in cash
purchases of bonds will be reached
before the drive officially closes
on February 29. " ,
Buy That Extra Bond!
With a slogan of "Dig- In -For
That Extra Bond!", every man in
the various units is being urged to
purchase at least one bond during
the drive. It is estimated that only
hall the members of the ASTP
bought bonds during January, but
it is hoped that each student will
try to purchase an extra bond this
month to give the unit lOo'i,
representation in the Bond Drive.
Those wishing to buy bonds
may have '.tit money taken from
their pay, and the bonds will be
secured for them. Those purchases
are in addition to the regular
monthly bond allotments. Approxi
mately of the AST students
now make these monthly deductions.

Iwisl month yon came back from furlough plenty low in

cliased almost if 20,000 worth of War Uonrts. That was a lot of
money for a bunch of deflated wallets, l'.ut there was a War
Loan Prive going on and people everywhere were expecting
eveivone to buy that extra bond. And that's what h lot
you did.
This month is a short month. Those pay envelopes will be
coming along pretty darn soon now. And the 1th War Ijoau
Drive is still on. The AKTT units have already reached their
goal thanks mainly to several larpe-bearled purchasers, who

everyone was asked to buy. Over half the ASTs did their part
and purchased a$2." bond to help the War Loan Drive but
thev were onlv half the potential purehaser.
Just reaching our goal is not enough. The Drive isn't over
vet nn.l we'd like to see the total co wa over the ton to
prove that we are ready and willing to help, and also that we
know a good investment when we see it. Those who bought
bonds before can do it again most of them will want to. To
those who couldn't manage a bond last month, we ean only
sav: It's another month and you ean still contribute your
share' to Uncle Sam's Hond Drive by pitching with one more
bond 1o help down the enemy.
A bond eosls only $18.75 and brings :M:; per cent interest

Co. 'C Takes
Second Round
Of Tournament
Smashing their way to four
straight wins. Company C's Blue
Wave came out on top of the sec
ond round of the army basketball
tourney. Paced by two high-scoring
aces, tricky Milt Dobrer and
Cliff Lind, noted for his drive off
the boards, the C men now have
seven consecutive intramural vic
tories to their cerdit, losing only
to B Company in the first round
opener.
Defensive standout all season
for the league leaders has been
"Solid Al" Burstein, ably assisted
by Chuck Burdette a good floor
man. Recently John Bottorf gave
the team some added offensive
punch, as did "Hopalong" Cassidy.
The play-making of Dobrer and
Burstein has been a factor in the
team's success.
Air Corps Falls First.
The Air Corps was Company
Cs first victim, being nosed out
28-26 in late December. A Com
pany and the Field House were
fairly easy conquests, falling, 46-

but the Blue established its su
periority by a decisive 49-36 vic
tory.

poned game with A company still
to be played, is the 348th CTD.
The air cadets turned in the big
gest upset of the season when
they topped B Company. 49-39, in
their tourney meeting. They also
romped over the Field House by a
50-29 count.

pany's Hustlers, ended up in third
