Scientific paper

Accurate masses and radii have been determined from new spectroscopic observations and previously published photometric orbits of YY Sgr (B5 +B6) and V526 Sgr (B9.5 +A2), two Southern eclipsing binaries with eccentric orbits and measured apsidal rotation. The measured properties, including apsidal rotation rate, are compared with recent theoretical predictions. The models indicate ages near 30 million and 200 million years for YY Sgr and V526 Sgr, respectively. The agreement between theory and observations is not entirely satisfactory for V526 Sgr.
