A nonlinear least-squares method has been used to determine the component periods of the Delta Scuti star 44 Tau. The sum of two sine curves, with periods of 0.1449 and 0.1120 day, provides an excellent fit to several observed light curves. The ratio of these two periods, 0.774, is in excellent agreement with the ratio of first-overtone to fundamental radial period, as calculated recently by Stellingwerf (1979). There is some evidence that the amplitudes associated with the two periods are slightly variable.
