The northern-hemisphere double cluster h and χ Persei is one of the richest young open clusters. At least half of the brightest stars in the cluster appear to be variables and most of them axe Be stars. Till now there was no evidence for the presence of β Cephei stars in the cluster. It is remarkable that the similar age southern cluster NGC 3293 and other clusters belonging to the same age group are documented as clusters in which β Cephei stars have been observed. In this work we report finding one suspected β Cephei-like object, basing on our own observations.
