Seventeen IUE spectra of ET And (HD 219749, HR 8861) have been investigated. The rotational velocity as derived by using the Fourier technique is v sin i = 78.8 + or - 9.0 km/sec, which is in good agreement with the values given in the literature. However, there is a large difference between v sin i measurements of photospheric lines and those of resonance lines. A circumstellar envelope would be a good explanation for this phenomenon. On grounds of periodic light variations of this star, a new method was developed to search for possible variations of continuum and spectral lines. This method of the so-called common line index is independent of the measurement of the continuum intensity, which is a great advantage in the case of the often heavily blended UV spectra. Periodic variations of continuum and spectral lines could have been detected.
