                      UV CETI

  A continual photoelectric monitoring of the flare
star UV Cet was done with the 91-cm reflector of the Okayama
Station from 14 to 28 October 1968, by the request of the
Working Group of UV Ceti stars. During the 38 hours of
monitoring 27 flares were observed as shown in the following
Table. Some more details will be published in the Tokyo
Astronomical Bulletin.
