A Cold Nearby Cloud inside the Local Bubble
The high-latitude Galactic H I cloud toward the extragalactic radiosource 3C 225 is characterized by very narrow 21 cm emission andabsorption indicative of a very low H I spin temperature of about 20 K.Through high-resolution optical spectroscopy, we report the detection ofstrong, very narrow Na I absorption corresponding to this cloud toward anumber of nearby stars. Assuming that the turbulent H I and Na I motionsare similar, we derive a cloud temperature of20+6-8 K (in complete agreement with the 21 cmresults) and a line-of-sight turbulent velocity of 0.37+/-0.08 kms-1 from a comparison of the H I and Na I absorption linewidths. We also place a firm upper limit of 45 pc on the distance of thecloud, which situates it well inside the Local Bubble in this directionand makes it the nearest known cold diffuse cloud discovered to date.

Observations of Double Stars. XVIII.
Micrometer observations of 1350 pairs in 1995-1997 are listed.

Observations of double stars and new pairs. XIV
Results of a continuing survey of visual double stars are presented,including 4880 measurements made from February 1987 to November 1989.The positions in WDS format and Durchmusterung numbers are given for 194pairs first reported here. Micrometer measurements of 1142 doubles madewith the Swarthmore 61 cm refractor are presented. Magnitudes areestimated for some of the objects. Plate measurements, plateorientations, position angles, number of nights, and measured exposuresare given. Visual observations of 342 pairs obtained in May 1989 atCerro Tololo, mostly with the 1.0 m reflector, are reported.

UBV photometry of stars whose positions are accurately known.
Photometric indices V, B-V, and U-B were measured for about 560 stars ofthe AGK3R and NPZT catalogs between BD declinations 11 deg and 23 deg,using the 40-cm Cassegrain telescope of the Kvistaberg Observatory fromApril 1986 to May 1987. The observation procedure and the reductiontechnique were the same as in the earlier papers of this series by Oja(1984, 1985, 1986, and 1987). The mean errors were calculated from theinternal consistency of the data. The accuracy was found to be the sameas for the earlier parts of the survey.

New optical positions and proper motions of late type stars associated with SiO masers
The 33 cm astrograph of the Bordeaux Observatory has been used to derivewith respect to AGK3 reference stars, accurate positions of late typevariable stars variable stars associated with strong SiO maser emission.It is suggested that selected maser stars can be used to link theHIPPARCOS system and the VLBI extragalactic reference frame. The propermotions of the program (SiO) and reference stars are derived and, forthe program stars, are compared to the McCormick catalog of propermotions.
