The authors give positions and magnitudes of QSO and background-galaxy candidates identified on UKST prism plates centred on the galaxies NGC 253, NGC 5236 and NGC 6744. Follow-up low-resolution spectroscopy with the 1.9-m telescope of the South African Astronomical Observatory confirmed that four of the candidates are QSOs (finding charts are given), and a further seven are galaxies sufficiently bright in the region of the Ca II λλ3933, 3968 lines to permit future high-resolution spectroscopy.
