         A NEW PHOTOELECTRIC TIME OF MINIMUM FOR VZ Psc





 In 1984 VZ Psc was observed on the night of August, 26-27 at Merate
Observatory, Instruments, procedures and comparison stars are the same
described in IBVS 2487, where 1983 measures are discussed.
 Observations started at JD .455 and were interrupted by clouds at
JD .536 : the measures (all in V light) are not of top quality, but a
minimum can be determined at JD hel. 2445939.499 (sigma = +-0.001) using
Kwee and Van Woerden's method (1956). The DeltaV value at minimum light is
0.48, i.e. the same of the minimum showed in Fig. 1 of the IBVS 2487.
 Having respect to the complete light curve given by Davidge and
Milone (1984) these two minima appear to be secondary.
