UBV photometry and MK spectral classification are presented for a sample of stars originally selected as UV objects from satellite photometry with the S2/68 experiment. Although most stars of the sample are spectroscopically normal, a number of hot, subluminous stars were also found. Radial velocities are given for some of the stars observed. It is proposed that the majority of the apparently normal early B stars at high galactic latitudes which are not runaway stars are subluminous disc-population analogues of horizontal branch B stars of Population II.
