Observations of a field (6 x 4 deg) around M 31 at 103 MHz indicate 21 radio sources with interplanetary scintillations. A source 13 arcmin north of the center of the galaxy appears to be a Cas A-type remnant. Other scintillating sources close to M 31 could not be firmly identified as high-frequency 5C3 sources. A few of the scintillating sources appear to be short galactic pulsars projected onto M 31. The galaxy was mapped at 103 MHz with a resolution of 49 x 27 arcmin. It is argued on the basis of the observational data that if the halo present around M 31 has a diameter of 3 deg, the resultant flux density would be less than 27 Jy.
