Schwartz, D. A. ; Bradt, H. ; Briel, U. ; Doxsey, R. E. ; Fabbiano, G. ; Griffiths, R. E. ; Johnston, M. D. ; Margon, B. Abstract We present locations of the weak, high galactic latitude X-ray sources 2A0526 - 328, 2A1052 + 606, and 4U1249 - 28 as measured with the scanning modulation collimator on HEAO 1. These have been identified with a blue emission line star, a late type star with Ha emission, and the dwarf nova EX Hydrae, respectively. The latter two are only the second examples of hard (2-10 keV) X-ray emission from (possibly) an RS CVn system and from a U Gem type dwarf nova. We have taken several spectra of the first two objects, and discovered night-to-night variability of their emission lines. We conclude that galactic stars must be con- sidered as likely candidates for unidentified X-ray sources at any galactic latitude.
