Abstract:
Finding charts, accurate coordinates, and light curves are presented
for 106 variable stars including 6 which are newly discovered.
Parameters descriptive of the light curves are tabulated including
periods for 16 stars which lacked them. The periods from the General
Catalog of Variable Stars for ten stars were found to be seriously in
error. The classification of the stars is discussed. Revisions or
refinements of the classifications from the General Catalogue of
Variable Stars are suggested for 20 stars and classifications are
given for 7 which were previously unclassified. 15%-23% of the Bailey
type ab RR Lyrae stars show scatter in their light curves which is
suggestive of the Blazhko effect.
