Photoelectric Stromgren photometry of seven magnetic peculiar stars in Upper Scorpius has been conducted. The periods of photometric variation have been determined. Periods and periods of magnetic peculiar stars in Orion (North, 1984) are used in a comparison to periods of magnetic peculiar stars in the field. It is concluded that there are no significant differences between the periods of the young cluster stars and the periods of the older field stars. This indicates that there is no significant angular momentum loss on the main sequence. Angular momentum is probably lost before the main sequence.
