Description:
UBV photometry of 955 galactic foreground stars in the direction to
the Large Magellanic Cloud is presented. The stars have been chosen
from foreground star catalogues and have been measured to complete a
new data base containing entries of more than 5000 stars in the
direction of the LMC. First and second order extinction coefficients
at La Silla/Chile are given, which differ from the standard values
because of the 1991 eruption of the volcano Mt. Pinatubo.

Note (1): the acronyms are:
A = Ardeberg (1972)
S = Fehrenbach & Duflot (1970) supplement, uncertain membership
RV = Feast et al. (1960)
HV = Harvard Variable No., Leavitt (1908)
Note (2): Stars referenced by their P number in Fehrenbach & Duflot (1970):
385 Variable HV 5509
450 Wrong Hodge & Wright number given by Fehrenbach & Duflot (1970):
not 29/94 but 29/95
486 Double star (dist. approx. 4''; both components only measured
in common
663 Variable HV 5650
827 Variable HV 2435
1013 Double star (dist. approx. 2"); both components only measured
in common; HDE 269526 is listed as FD 1013 and FD 1014 by
Fehrenbach & Duflot (1970): components of binary (?)
1045 U-B has been measured only twice
1054 Close binary (Feast et al. 1960: dist. = 1"), both components
only measured in common
1190 Star lies at the edge of a nebula
1253 Identification as HDE 269939 by Fehrenbach & Duflot (1970) is
correct; HDE is numbered twice (cf. FD 1259)
1259 Identification as HDE 269939 by Fehrenbach & Duflot (1970) is not
correct
1356 Variable HV 6024
1641 Wrong Hodge & Wright number given by Fehrenbach & Duflot (1970):
not 61/64 but 61/60
1646 Wrong Hodge & Wright number given by Fehrenbach & Duflot (1970):
not 61/60 but 61/64
2003 Double star ?
HD36705 Short period variable with a period of approx. 12 hours,
amplitude in V = 0.09 mag; measurements were obtained on
November 29, 1991
