                 V 362 Her

     V 382 Her - SVS 1248 was discovered in 1958 by
Tsesevich (Astr. Circ. 195. 18, 21). He gave the following
elements (contained in GCVS Index 1, 1960):

	Max.  = J.D. 2436344.489 + 0d.61902 . E
               RRab ; 13m 2 - 14m 2 ph

He published 9 maxima (ph) and magnitudes for comparison
stars.
     On 118 plates of the 40cm astrograph of Sonneberg
Observatory I examined this variable star and found that
the above mentioned elements are incorrect,

     New elements: Maxr= J.D. 2439098.447 + 0d.718332 . E
                    RRab; M - m = 0p. 20
                        13m45 - 14m70 ph

Observed maxima:
J.D. 24...     E      O-C
38501.509   - 831   -0d.004
  532.396   - 788   -     5
  560.426   - 749   +    10
  817.558   - 391   -    21
  940.423   - 220   +     9
39184.849   + 120   -     1
  238.535   + 195   +    13
40039.452   +1310   -    10
  067.462   +1349   -    15

      The elements do not represent the observed maxima
from Tsesevich. Particulars will be published in "Mitteilungen 
der Bruno H.-Brugel-Sternwarte Hartha" Heft 2.

			NP Her

	NP Her = 482.1934 = P 4025 = DO 15453 (N) was
discovered classified as a longperiodic variable by Morgenroth 
(An 254, 371, 1934). GCVS 1958 contains the following
elements:
		Max. = J.D. 2427560 + 2200d/n

	On 125 plates (panchromatic) of the Sonnenberg Sky
Patrol (J.D. 2438083 - 2440068) the little known variable
was examined and 5 maxima were observed. We obtained the
elements:

		Max. = J.D. 2436976 + 448d . E (M - m = 0p.5)

Observed maxima:
J.D. 24....        E      O-C
38300		+ 3	-20 d
38820		+ 4	+52 
39238:		+ 5	+22
39643		+ 6	-21
40080:		+ 7	-32

Further particulars will be published in  "Mitteilungen 
der Bruno H.-Brugel-Sternwarte Hartha" Heft 2.
