Spectral Classification of Stars in A Supplement to the Bright Star Catalogue
MK spectral types are given for about 584 stars in A Supplement to theBright Star Catalogue. These are compared with Hipparcos parallaxes tocheck the reliability of those classifications. The estimated errors are+/-1.2 subtypes, and 10% of the luminosity classes may be wrong.

Vitesses radiales. Catalogue WEB: Wilson Evans Batten. Subtittle: Radial velocities: The Wilson-Evans-Batten catalogue.
We give a common version of the two catalogues of Mean Radial Velocitiesby Wilson (1963) and Evans (1978) to which we have added the catalogueof spectroscopic binary systems (Batten et al. 1989). For each star,when possible, we give: 1) an acronym to enter SIMBAD (Set ofIdentifications Measurements and Bibliography for Astronomical Data) ofthe CDS (Centre de Donnees Astronomiques de Strasbourg). 2) the numberHIC of the HIPPARCOS catalogue (Turon 1992). 3) the CCDM number(Catalogue des Composantes des etoiles Doubles et Multiples) byDommanget & Nys (1994). For the cluster stars, a precise study hasbeen done, on the identificator numbers. Numerous remarks point out theproblems we have had to deal with.

BVR observations of polarization parameters of stars in reflection nebulas
The observed polarizations of the nuclei of reflection nebulas and fieldstars in B, V, R filters are given. A connection has been found betweenthe direction of the polarization vector, the structure of thereflection nebula, and the shape of the cloud in which the nebula issituated. The direction of the plane of polarization for stars seenthrough the filamentary structure of a nebula is the same as thedirection of the filaments. Stars situated at the edges of clouds andchannels have direction of the polarization vector the same as theapparent boundary of the cloud.

A survey of ultraviolet objects
An all-sky survey of ultraviolet objects is presented together with astatistical analysis that leads to the conclusion that there is asignificantly higher population of hot subdwarfs lying below themain-sequence than hitherto thought. The distribution of all ultravioletobjects, main sequence ultraviolet objects, and MK unclassifiedultraviolet objects are shown in galactic coordinates, and the absolutemagnitudes and color-color diagrams for these groups are presented.Scale heights are derived, giving values similar to planetary nebulaefor the hottest groups.

R associations. VI - The reddening law in dust clouds and the nature of early-type emission stars in nebulosity from a study of five associations
Positions, identification charts, UBVRIKLMN photometry and spectraltypes are given for stars, illuminating reflection nebulae that arevisible on the POSS prints, which have been identified in fiveassociations. With a ratio of total to selective extinction of 4.2, thereddening law applicable to the dust clouds in which the stars areembedded is steeper than normal. The five associations exhibit 18early-type stars with circumstellar shells, of which those with spectraltypes earlier than B5 characteristically have weak IR excesses, incontrast to the strong excesses indicative of circumstellar dust, oflater-type stars. Color-magnitude charts show a distribution lying abovethe ZAMS by up to about 2 mag for both the circumstellar shell stars andthose classified as rapid rotators. It is suggested that (1) rapidrotation accounts for the scatter in the color-magnitude diagram, and(2) many of the nebulous early-type emission-line stars are rapidrotators rather than pre-main sequence objects.
