Spectroscopic observations of the 9.5 d Algol system S Cnc at the Lick and McDonald Observatories give velocity amplitudes of 10 and 127 km/s for the A0 main-sequence and late G subgiant components, respectively, and masses of 2.3 and 0.18 solar masses. The radii, from the Crawford and Olson photometry, are 2.2 and 4.8 solar radii. The Roche lobe-filling subgiant of S Cnc has the smallest known stellar mass established directly from spectrographic observations.
