COMMISSION 27 OF THE I. A. U. INFORMATION BULLETIN ON VARIABLE STARS NUMBER 567 Konkoly Observatory Budapest 1971 July 8 PHOTOELECTRIC OBSERVATIONS OF TX CANCRI The eclipsing variable TX Cancri was observed with the 36 inch reflectors at the Okayama Astrophysical Observatory and the Dodaira Station of Tokyo Astronomical Observatory on sixteen nights during the winters of 1962-63, 1964-65, 1965-66, 1967-68 and 1970-71. BD +19d2067 was used as the comparison star. The standard UBV colour filters and three narrow-band filters (lambda_eff = 4870, 4110, 3940A) were used.
