A number of previous studies of the relation between observed colors and temperatures of Cephelds have been done (Kraft 1961; Johnson 1966; Parsons 1971; Bohm-Vitense 1972; Schmidt 1972; Pel 1978). It was the discrepancies between these various temperature scales, especially at the cooler end, that led us to undertake the present recalibration. We felt some improvement on the previous work would result from our access to better scan data, reddening information, and model atmospheres. The results presented here are preliminary, as they represent only a sample of the data we have obtained.
