X-ray observations of the Large Magellanic Cloud were made with two collimated proportional counters having high angular resolution, a wide spectral dynamic range and a large aperture. Counting rates in the two detectors during the entire rocket flight are presented, and a number of soft X-ray (0.5-2 keV) sources were found in the bar of the LMC, having luminosities between 10 to the 37th and 10 to the 38th ergs/s. Emission in the 0.15-0.28 keV band from LMC X-3 was also detected.
