   On sky patrol plates taken at the Southern Station of the
Remeis-Observatory Bamberg at the Boyden Observatory, South
Africa and at the Southern Station of the University of Florida 
Gainesville at the Mount John Observatory, New Zealand, the
stars in the following list were found to be variable. None were
found to be listed as suspected variables.
   The brightness of these stars at maximum were estimated
by comparison with standard stars in the Harvard-Groningen Atlas, 
Selected Areas (1965, A. BRUN and H. VEHRENBERG).
