TASV 0626+34 (=Q1989/75)
Mike Collins (MAG36908) reports his discovery of a possible new 
variable on patrol exposures of 1989 Oct 6.1UT at:
RA 06h26.2m DEC +34 44'(1950)
The object was recorded at about mag 11.9 on Oct 6, whereas it was
at magnitude approx 10 on 1989 Mar 2. There is no candidate in 
the GCVS or supplements/name lists. Charts can be ordered by
sending an e-mail to the Editor.

TASV 0722+37 (=Q1989/76)
Mike Collins also reports discovery of another possible variable
on Oct 6.1UT at: RA 07h22.2m DEC +37 51'(1950).   
At discovery it was about 11.0 whereas it was below 11.5 on
1989 Jan 15.1UT. No entry has been found in catalogues and a 
chart can be obtained from the Editor.

NOVA SCUTI 1989
A new (C) chart is now available with comparisons to mag 14.0 
based on a sequence transfer from M11 (ApJ 124, p82). This differs
substantially from that issued with the recent AAVSO Alert Notice.

ASTEROIDAL OBSERVING RUN
J.-C.Merlin (MAG100851) advises us that Jean-Louis Heudier,
Observatoire de al Cote d'Azur, Niceq, requires monitoring of
264 LIBUSSA, 365 CORDUBA, 521 BRIXIA.
These objects are good candidates for spacecraft rendezvous.
Astrometric and photometric data are needed and further details 
are available by e-mailing MAG100851.

1989 TF
This object found by Brian Manning has been identified with a   
'lost' asteroid found in 1985. The discovery therefore rests with
the latter. 1989 TE remains 'intact' at the present time.

1989 TA and 1989 TB
Rob McNaught discovered a mag 15.5v object on Oct 1 which has
subsequently been identified with an object in 1968. 1989 TB was
discovered by Karl F.J.Cwach, an amateur from Newcastle, NSW,
Australia. More details will appear in a future issue of TA.
