                  A NEW EMISSION OBJECT



     A new emission object (RA = 19h39.8m, Decl.=+16d38' ; 1950)
was discovered on the objective-prism plate taken by B. Balazs
O.D. Dokuchaeva and Zs. Vizi with the 60/90/180 cm Schmidt-camera
at the Piszkesteto Observatory (Hungary).
     The object shows remarkable continuous and emission-
line spectra. The emission Halpha - Hzeta, [OIII] N1, N2, probably HeI 5876,
HeII 4686 and others seem to be present.
     The cursory examination of a series of direct photographs
(1898-1976) of Sternberg State Astronomical Institute (Moscow)
showed great light changes. The star was invisible to April
1975 (limit of plates from 13m to 17m). From 4 April to September 
1975 the magnitude of the object rose from 16m to 11m. From
September 1975 to July 1976 the magnitude varied between 11m-12m.
The Palomar Sky Survey gave about seventeenth magnitude (O-chart)
and probably remarkable red colour for 1950.
     The object may be a slow Nova or object similar to variable 
stars V 1016 and V 1329 Cyg.
