Published: MPB 38, pending
NOTES: Unless otherwise stated, the "Reduced Magnitudes" in the plots are Cousins R, based on 2MASS to BVRI conversions (Warner, MPB 34, 113-119)

MPB 29, 74-75: P = 2.770, A = 0.03, U = 2.

Images were remeasured and found revised, ambiguous period. P = 4.801 cannot be ruled out. Behrned found 3.009, A = 0.17 with U = 3. The revised data set do not fit that period very well.
