We present radial-velocity data for the 14 stars listed by Evans (1968) as a useful southern extension of the existing faint radial-velocity standard stars. The stars have been measured with the photoelectric scanner CORAVEL at La Silla from January, 1981, through August, 1983. Our zero-point agrees to within about ± 0.15 km s-1 with the IAU zero-point for radial-velocity standards fainter than V = 4.3. Our standard deviation for a single radial-velocity determination is around 0.25 km s-1. The individual stars have been measured between 12 and 2 times with an average of 6. with the data given by Evans (1968) shows significant differences. These seem to depend both on radial velocity and on right ascension.
