Moffett (1972) pointed out the existence of short-time outbursts in flare stars as long ago as 1972. Gershberg & Petrov (1986) had registered a flare in EV Lac with a duration of 28.4 and an amplitude of 38.4 in 1984 with ASTRON. In recent years, a few reports appeared about observations of short-time outbursts in EV Lac with a duration in the range from 08.1 to several seconds. These results were summarized briefly by Zhilyaev (1993). Our observations confirm the existence of short-time flare activity on EV Lac.

The observations reported here were obtained at the 60 cm telescope at the Peak Terskol high-altitude Observatory (3 100 m above sea level) with a highspeed two-channel photometer (Zhilyaev et al. 1992) in B as well as simultaneously in both, U and V bands, with a time resolution down to 08.1. A new prefiltering technique (Zhilyaev 1995) has been used for the detection of smallscale activity of the flare star EV Lac.
