Rotational Velocity Determinations for 118 δ Scuti Variables
A calibration method is presented for the determination of projectedrotational velocities of 118 δ Scuti variables from FWHMmeasurements of metal lines near 4500 Å. The calibration relationused was derived from measurements of 29 stars. Of the 44 stars brighterthan 8th magnitude and north of –1° declination which did nothave values in the Rodríguez catalog (Rodríguez, E.,López González, M. J., & López de Coca, P.2000, A&AS, 144, 469) we present values for 38. In addition, wepresent new projected rotational velocity, vsin i, values for 10 starssouth of –1° or fainter than 8th magnitude for a total of 48vsin i values for stars with no previously published values.

Proper identification of RR Lyrae stars brighter than 12.5 mag
RR Lyrae stars are of great importance for investigations of Galacticstructure. However, a complete compendium of all RR-Lyraes in the solarneighbourhood with accurate classifications and coordinates does notexist to this day. Here we present a catalogue of 561 local RR-Lyraestars (V_max ≤ 12.5 mag) according to the magnitudes given in theCombined General Catalogue of Variable Stars (GCVS) and 16 fainter ones.The Tycho2 catalogue contains ≃100 RR Lyr stars. However, manyobjects have inaccurate coordinates in the GCVS, the primary source ofvariable star information, so that a reliable cross-identification isdifficult. We identified RR Lyrae from both catalogues based on anintensive literature search. In dubious cases we carried out photometryof fields to identify the variable. Mennessier & Colome (2002,A&A, 390, 173) have published a paper with Tyc2-GCVSidentifications, but we found that many of their identifications arewrong.

The 74th Special Name-list of Variable Stars
We present the Name-list introducing GCVS names for 3153 variable starsdiscovered by the Hipparcos mission.
