GLENCROSS1 has reported the observation of an apparent 6 min periodicity during X-ray flares observed in the 0.1 to 0.3 nm wavelength band. The detector was a soft X-ray sensor on the satellite OSO-IV launch in 1967. The observed flare profiles were examined in more than thirty X-ray events coincident with visible flares, and a histogram was constructed showing the separation of peaks. The results showed such strong evidence for peak separations being multiples of 6 min that we began a search for similar peak spacing in X-ray data for a similar wavelength interval derived from scintillation detectors aboard the satellites Vela V (launched on May 23, 1969) and Vela VI (launched on April 8, 1970). The results of our search have not confirmed the 6 min periodicity.
