   On the request of Mr. Meinunger the star was observed
photoelectrically on several nights (without filters; 
multiplier 1 P 21 ). Following the observations the star is
not a semiregular variable with a period of 30d +- (as listed 
in the GCVS Supp.I), but a Beta Lyrae star with the elements

       Min_hel = 243 8937.476 + 2.10454 day E
         
   Both minima are of equal depth; the range of variation
is 0.42mag. The spectral type according to Herbig is B8.
                                
   The star is recommended for observation being its
brightness 9.7mag in maximum.
