The environs of the premain-sequence, emission-line star, LkH-alpha 101, have been observed by broad-band CCD imaging, high-resolution optical spectroscopy, IRAS imaging, and single-dish, as well as interferometric, millimeter-line mapping. LkH-alpha 101 exhibits a high mass-loss rate (0.000011) low-velocity (350 km/s) ionized wind typical of early-type premain-sequence stars (Barsony, 1989). The millimeter interferometer maps show that this wind has cleared out a cavity in the molecular cloud surrounding LkH-alpha 101, allowing the rapid expansion of the previously observed VLA H II region (Becker and White, 1988).
