COMMISSION 27 OF THE I. A. U. INFORMATION BULLETIN ON VARIABLE STARS NUMBER 289 Konkoly Observatory Budapest 1968 July 15 Veroffentlichungen der Remeis-Sternwarte Bamberg Astronomisches Institut der Universitat Erlangen-Nurnberg Vol. VII, Nr. 71 NEW BRIGHT SOUTHERN VARIABLE STARS The plates, which have been taken in New Zealand at the Mt.John Observatory University, were exposed with the same cameras, lenses and treatment as formerly in South- Africa at the Boyden-Observatory. Through the efforts of Prof. WOOD, Flower and Cook Observatory (Philadelphia) a mounting and the funds for the payment of an observer from the National Science Foundation (USA) were obtained. I have to thank also to Mr. BATESON, Astronomer in Charge, and the observers Mr. PATTERSON (Mt.John) and Dipl. Phys. U. KOHLER (Bamberg). The first shipment of plates (400) from the declination zones -77d, -64d, -51d and -38d at RA 12^h-24^h led to the following discoveries. The brighter stars are listed with standard catalogue numbers; stars fainter than 9.^m5 are given with the surrounding star fields.
