The motion of G8-K5 III, IV stars near galactic poles (|b|>60°) was investigated. The main attention was paid to motion in the z-direction. The spectral types, visual magnitudes, colors and radial velocities (vr) were taken mainly from Schild (1973), Heard (1956), Blanco et al (1968) and Wilson (1953). To reduce the values vr by Heard to those by Wilson, the correction of -1 km/sec was made. The stars with variable vr and spectroscopic binaries were excluded from the investigation.
