The Sept. 12 spectrograms are overexposed, and only a few features are detectable: Balmer H10 and H11 in emission, Ca II 3933 A, 3968 A and a strong structure at 3920 A (probably Mg I 3838 A) in absorption.

In absorption there are present: Ca II 3933 A, 3968 A with a violet shift of about 15 A; Ca I 4227 A and the probable Mg I 3838 A. The ultraviolet continuum is strong."
