A progress report on work on (a) spectral types and (b) radial velocities of twenty-eight members of the Large Cloud (mostly mpg = 11 or brighter) will appear shortly in The Observatory. The commonest spectral types found lie between B 5 and A 2. A star with Mpg= − 10·1 has slightly narrower H-lines than the galactic A 2 super-giant HD 92207. [Fe 11] emission appears in four of the stars, including recent spectra of S Dor.
