Pulses that recur with a 4.27 + or - 0.01 minute period were detected on April 2, 1974 in the 20-64 keV X-radiation from the galactic center region. Apparently emanating from GX 1 + 4, a major contributor to the high-energy radiation from that region, the pulses were 1.25 + or - 0.42 minutes in duration. If it is in fact the same source that has been observed on all occasions, the period is twice that previously believed.
