Spectroscopy of the composite-spectrum binary HR 6902 around the time of total eclipse reveals absorption features that are due to the chromosphere of the G9 II primary star. By applying a method of digital subtraction of spectra the author has succeeded in isolating those features. This paper presents a description and measurements of the chromospheric spectrum of HR 6902A in the wavelength region λλ3650 - 4450 Å. From a study of the spectra at ingress and egress the author attempts to elucidate the geometry of the eclipse and to derive the rotation period of the G9 II star.
