During the past three years, Priscilla F. Bok, Jane Basinski, and I have concentrated in our work on the Large Magellanic Cloud upon the study of young associations. One colour-magnitude array, that of NGC 1955–68–74, has been published (Bok, Bok, and Basinski 1962), and work on three additional groupings, NGC 1929–34–35–36–37, NGC 1770, and NGC 1814–16–20 is well under way. We shall report here on NGC 1929–37, which is often referred to as “Shapley's Constellation I”. Its position is α = 5h22m0; δ = −68°00′ (1960).
