The stars Theta Peg and Sigma And (A2 V) were examined for equivalent-width variability with a time scale of several hours. Two hundred nineteen photoelectric spectra showed no equivalent-width variation in H-beta larger than the expected error from photon statistics, viz., + or - 0.7% per measurement. The present investigation therefore does not confirm the large variations reported by Antonello et al. (1978). A general formalism to calculate equivalent-width errors due to photon statistics is presented.
