The present measurements of 20 primaries and five secondaries in 20 binary systems indicate that 14 of the primaries and all five of the secondaries exhibit synchronous rotation. The star 62 Per is noted to have V sin i of 200 km/sec rather than of zero, as previously thought; results for other stars are in basic agreement with previous measurements. For TX UMa, the Na I D-line was stronger in the secondary than in the primary, leading to the deduction of a mass ratio of 0.32.
