                  PHOTOELECTRIC OBSERVATIONS OF R CrB

The star R CrB was observed photoelectrically with the 250/3250 Cassegrain 
telescope and an EMI 9781 B PMT at Nessa Observatory using standard
UBV filters. delta CrB (V = 4.63m, B-V = 0.80m, U-B = 0.37m) and SAO 084005
(V=7.45m, B-V = 0.44m, U-B = 0.02m) were used as comparison stars. These
observations are the continuation of those published in IBVS No. 2835. The
observations are listed in the following table.
