The chromospheric phases in the 1971 72 eclipse were observed at wavelength regions containing the K-line of ionized calcium on six nights at ingress and on eight nights at egress at the Okayama Astrophysical Observatory. The linear dispersion of the spectrograms is about 10 Å mm-1. The spectrograms were measured for line intensities of the K-line and for radial velocities of metallic and hydrogen lines. The results are compared with those obtained in the earlier eclipses. The intensities of the chromospheric K-line during this eclipse were relatively ‘weak’ at both ingress and egress and were similar to those in the 1939 40 eclipse. It seems that the chromospheric activity of ζ Aurigae increased after 1939, reached a maximum at 1950 56, and then decreased again until 1971. The radial velocities of the chromospheric lines of hydrogen atoms, ionized calcium, and some other atoms and ions varied with phase showing almost the same characteristic features as in most earlier eclipses. Intensities and velocities were also measured for satellite lines of the K-line.
