1982 DV
     Yet another fast-moving asteroidal object has been discovered
by H.-E. Schuster at the European Southern Observatory:

     1982 UT             R. A. (1950) Decl.       Mag.
     Feb. 28.21676    12 06 27 7    -25 23 57     14
          28.29986    12 06 40.5    -25 26 11
     Mar.  4.26528    12 19 09.2    -27 16 35     14

The first two observations refer to the beginning and end of a
trail.  The red magnitude is ~ 13-14.
