       HD 192913: A NEW PERIODIC MAGNETIC VARIABLE

     This star was observed photoelectrically in UBV system with the
60 cm reflector of Bologna Observatory for 19 nights since June 19,
1973 to October 26, 1974, using HD 191747 as comparison star.
     HD 192518 and probably also HD 192044 were found to be rapid
variable stars.
     HD 192913 shows, in U light, variations of 0m.090 with a period
of 16d.82. The light curve is plotted by the formula

               J.D. Min = 2441853.6 + 16d.82.E
