                  TIMES OF MINIMA OF SOUTHERN
                       ECLIPSING BINARIES


 Here are presented photoelectric minima for AG Phe and LT Pav. Observations were
made at Cerro Tololo Interamerican Observatory in Chile^1 with the 60 cm Lowell 
Telescope, standard UBVRI filters and photon counting techniques.
 Kwee and Van Woerden (1956) method for determining times of minimum light was
used for the observations of AG Phe while the sliding integrals algorithm (Ghedini, 1981)
was used for LT Pav. The determined minima are listed in the following tables together
with the standard deviation given in brackets in units of 0.0001d.
