Observations of a well-ordered velocity gradient that decreases with decreasing cloud radius are reported for the galactic dark cloud B361. The source also exhibits systematic changes in spectral line width. Current observations confirm the suggestion of rotation in this source reported earlier and imply the presence of an effective mechanism for redistributing angular momentum. Magnetic braking is invoked to explain the observed effects.
