Spectra of this outbursting 2MASS and CSS source (vsnet-alert 19858)
obtained at Apache Point Observatory from 3:27-5:55 UT June 5
show strong HeII 4686 in emission, stronger than Hbeta, with narrow blue 
peaks superposed on the emission lines. These spectra confirm that this
is likely an unusual cataclysmic variable, perhaps with a magnetic white
dwarf. Observations throughout the 5 hr orbit are needed.
