X-ray data on the sources 3U 1813-14 (GX 17+2) and 3U 1811-17 (GX 13+1), obtained by Copernicus between 1975 and 1977, are examined. These reveal correlated intensity and spectral-slope variations in GX 17+2 similar to those seen in Sco X-1 and four other galactic sources, 3U 0614+09, 3U 1702-36, 3U 1728-16, and 3U 1758-25. The data on GX 17+2 have been unsuccessfully searched for further evidence of a shallow 31.9-minute modulation. In the case of GX 13+1 no significant variability was seen in either intensity or spectrum. A simultaneous search made from the NRAO simultaneously with some of the X-ray observations revealed no significant radio emission from either source.
