Observations of the galactic-center-region hard X-ray source GX 1 + 4 by the GSFC X-ray spectroscopy experiment on OSO-8 confirm that GX 1 + 4 is a slow X-ray pulsar. The amount of absorption by cold matter in the spectrum of GX 1 + 4 varies significantly within a 24-hour period, which is typical of many X-ray binary systems. The light curve for the pulsations from GX 1 + 4 appears to be energy-dependent.
