Scientific paper

The extensive plate collection of Sternberg Astronomical Institute (Moscow) was used for a study of the photometric behaviour of bright variable stars in M33. We present here LBV V268 (VarC) and the LBV-candidate Halpha7. About 600 magnitude estimates were obtained for each star for 1973 - 2002. The light curves of both stars are typical for Luminous Blue Variables. V268 shows large and complex quasiperiodic variations from 2 to 3400 days. In Halpha7, we found several quasi-periods from 20 to 160 days. Amplitudes of these variations depend on the state of activity of the stars.
