The photoelectric light curves of XY Cet of Srivastava and Padalia (1975) and of Morrison and Morrison (1968), from which considerably different sets of photometric elements have pre- viously been deduced, were re-analyzed in detail. The elements derived in the present study from Srivastava and Padalia's (1975) UBV observations are rg = 0.157 ± 0.006 (p.e.), r~ = 0.142 ± 0.007, 1 = 88~4 ± 0?5, Lg = 0.600 ± 0.017, 0.602 ± 0.015 and 0.584 ± 0.018 for U, B and V. respectively. It is also found from their light curves that the system has an eccentric orbit with e cos w = 0.0026 ± 0.0005. The elements deduced from the V observations of Morrison and Morrison (1968) are found to be in satisfactory agreement with those presented above. The existence of the Am characteristics of both components, which was recognized by earlier spectroscopic observations, are supported by the B-V and U-B color indices and L1[mi] value of the system. Both components are also found to have appreciably evolved, as expected for metallic- line stars
