In 7829, the two bands I & bet. I & II are the only conspicuous marking at the red end. They seem about equally strong. There is only a slight change in light at 4307. The G band consists of two wide lines, the narrower one seen in gamma Crucis having almost disappeared.
beta Grucis probably forms ^[[one]] the group following alpha orionis.

On 5650, there is a tendency to show a break near the lambda 4762, about .18 mm nearer the red end of spectrum. Is this characteristic of stars beyond alpha Orionis?

sigma Librae 418 [[strikethrough]] 7 [[/strikethrough]] 6 1 [[superscript]] ? [[/superscript]] poor. Under alpha Orionis?

sigma Librae 418 [[strikethrough]] 6 [[/strikethrough]] 7
4227.0 2 as strong as in alpha Orionis. No lines are sharp in absorption bands.
I, I-II, & III of nearly equal brightness.
Is this star beyond alpha Orionis?

gamma Hydr[[strikethrough]]ae[[/strikethrough]]^[[I]] 4336 too poor.

sigma Librae  5614 1 [[superscript]] 3 [[/superscript]] best plate.
Spectrum seen to lambda 4954
The new band I to II is getting brighter, is clearly intermediate between I & II. II has faded H lines. H gamma slightly [[strikethrough]] bright [[/strikethrough]] stronger than 4326.0
Lines are certainly seen in the absorption bands.
I think this star should go in same class as alpha Orionis.
1st type star is faint on this plate.
