Observations of U Cephei made by C. M. Huffer, et al, in 1950-51 and in 1959, are presented here to contrast with other observations made by Huffer and others.

In many cases, to see a light-curve of an eclipsing binary is to see all light-curves for that particular system. This is certainly not true of U Cephei which, because of its rapid variations, has held the attention of so many for so long.

The 1950-51 yellow and blue observations were made at Washburn Observatory, Madison. The data have been transcribed from Huffer’s note books to a floppy disk and are available.
