Scientific paper

New photoelectric (UBVR) observations of the young binary EK Cep are obtained. The orbital period is improved (P = 4.427 7954d). New photometric elements are determined by Lavrov's direct method. The idea that the cool secondary star has color excesses is confirmed. The results of UBVR photometry of stars in the binary neighborhood are given. The system is not associated with any star group. The period of the periastron advance for the moderately eccentric orbits is calculated (4200 +/- 200 yr), and difficulties of the theoretical interpretation of this result are stated.
