Study of Neglected Variable Stars Classified as Type II Cepheids
Four variable stars classified as Type II Cepheids have been studiedpartly based on new photometry and the Hipparcos photometric data. Thecorrect period is derived for V341 Ara and NW Pav and it is pointed outthat RR Mic and V1711 Sgr do not belong to Type II Cepheids, insteadthey may be semi-regular variables. The cycle length of theirvariability is also determined.

DDO photometry of E-region stars and equatorial standards - II
This paper deals with the observations of 72 of McClure's equatorialstandard stars, made with the same photometer and DDO filters as wereused for the E-region stars in Cousins' Paper I in order to standardizethe observations. These observations were reduced in the natural systemand later transformed into McClure's system. Zero-point ties between theequatorial and E-region stars were also needed to standardize the lattersystem. With the exception of C(38-41), our photometry agrees as wellwith McClure's standard system as his own observations do, but both showsome small, apparently systematic, differences which are almostinevitable with a system like the DDO unless the response functions arevery well matched. Comparisons with 17 of Dean's measurements ofE-region stars show good agreement (~2 mmag) for the averagedzero-points, but there are small colour differences affecting C(35-38)and C(38-41) because of differences between the filters and thereduction procedures. This paper also deals with several problems in theDDO photometry that have implications for precision photometry ingeneral.

Vitesses radiales. Catalogue WEB: Wilson Evans Batten. Subtittle: Radial velocities: The Wilson-Evans-Batten catalogue.
We give a common version of the two catalogues of Mean Radial Velocitiesby Wilson (1963) and Evans (1978) to which we have added the catalogueof spectroscopic binary systems (Batten et al. 1989). For each star,when possible, we give: 1) an acronym to enter SIMBAD (Set ofIdentifications Measurements and Bibliography for Astronomical Data) ofthe CDS (Centre de Donnees Astronomiques de Strasbourg). 2) the numberHIC of the HIPPARCOS catalogue (Turon 1992). 3) the CCDM number(Catalogue des Composantes des etoiles Doubles et Multiples) byDommanget & Nys (1994). For the cluster stars, a precise study hasbeen done, on the identificator numbers. Numerous remarks point out theproblems we have had to deal with.

Secondary UVBY standards in the Harvard E-regions
Photoelectric uvby photometry for 201 stars which are already UBV (RI)cstandards is presented. The photoelectric data are closely tied to theCousins uvby standards and the stars should be suitable for use asfainter (7-11 mag) secondary standards.

Hot subluminous stars at high galactic latitudes. I - Spectra and Stromgren photometry
Spectra of 92 stars selected from the Palomar-Green Catalog, most ofthem being hydrogen-rich (53) or helium-rich (21) hot subdwarfs, arepresented. The rest belong to other spectral types, e.g. HBB ormain-sequence B stars. Also presented is Stromgren photometry for 39stars of the Palomer-Green Catalog, 29 of them belonging to thespectroscopically observed sample. The observations and their reductionare described and a spectral classification of the stars is given basedon the spectra published here.

Secondary standards for the Stromgren UVBY system
Observations of 158 E region stars have been made in the Stromgrensystem, using the 46-cm reflector at Cape Town. They are mostly brighterthan eighth magnitude and are intended for use as secondary standardsfor the four-color system. The E region relative zero points are definedwith a precision of + or - 0.001 mag, and the internal standard errorsof the colors life between + or - 0.001 and + or - 0.002 mag.

HD 47147 - A small-amplitude extreme metal-poor RRab pulsating variable
The photometric variations and physical and kinematical properties of HD47147, a ninth magnitude metal-deficient star, are discussed. The longperiod (0.79732 days), the small amplitude (0.17 mag in the visualband), and the mean effective temperature of 6160 K of this RR Lyraepulsating variable can be understood by its location near the red edgeof the instability strip. The extreme Population II characteristics ofHD 47147 are confirmed by its kinematical properties. The temperatureand the relatively high luminosity derived are consistent with bothpossibilities that HD 47147 is a red horizontal branch star or that itis a suprahorizontal branch star actually evolving redward toward theasymptotic branch. Its low amplitude suggests the possibility that thered edge of the instability strip corresponds to a smooth transitionfrom variable to non-variable stars.

A catalog of ultraviolet interstellar extinction excesses for 1415 stars
Ultraviolet interstellar extinction excesses are presented for 1415stars with spectral types B7 and earlier. The excesses with respect to Vare derived from Astronomical Netherlands Satellite (ANS) 5-channel UVphotometry at central wavelengths of approximately 1550, 1800, 2500, and3300 A. A measure of the excess extinction in the 2200-A extinction bumpis also given. The data are valuable for investigating the systematicsof peculiar interstellar extinction and for studying the character of UVinterstellar extinction in the general direction of stars for which theextinction-curve shape is unknown.

H-beta photometry of southern early-type stars
H-beta photoelectric photometry is presented for 209 southern hemisphereearly-type stars from the HD catalog with galactic latitudes /b/ greaterthan 6 deg. Four-color photometry exists for all these stars and MKtypes for most of them. Absolute magnitudes have been estimated for allbut the emission-line stars and distances from the sun and the galacticplane determined.
