The IUE measurements of scattering of starlight by interstellar dust near Zeta Ori are reviewed. The wavelength dependence of the dust albedo and phase function are derived. A phase-function value between 0.1 and 0.8 is found, with a value near 0.6 at visual wavelengths. This means that all dust appears to be forward scattering. The albedo appears to be smaller towards shorter wavelengths than in the visual.
