It is found from galaxy counts that there is a strong tendency for galaxies at about the plate limit of the 1.2 m Palomar Schmidt telescope to cluster about low-redshift QSOs. The significance of this clustering has been estimated in a nonparametric way using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test and is found to be significant at the 99 percent level. If a power-law form for the galaxy-QSO cross-correlation function is assumed, the amplitude is the same within the errors to that of the galaxy-galaxy autocorrelation function.
