The above plates show a variation of about a magnitude or more in -34^[[°]] 224.  On B5734 & 4248 the star is brighter by that amount then on B4525 & 4518.  About twenty other plates were examined but they showed little or no evidence of change in this star.  The comparison is difficult since the star is bright and there are no suitable comparison stars, within reasonable limits, on the plates.
Miss Leland measure all plates.
