Photometric and polarimetric observations will be made of systems whose properties are ascribed to the effect of a gravitational lens. The similarity of the images in the previously unobserved UV region of the spectrum, both photometrically and polarimetrically, is necessary for these objects to be gravitational lens systems; any differences found will be carefully studied to determine what constraints they put on the system. Systems whose properties appear consistent with a point mass deflector (i.e., a black hole) will be monitored to determine whether photometric or polarimetric variablity exists in the images. The distance to the deflecting mass in this case can be related to the path length difference between the two image paths from the imaged quasar to the observer. The path length difference can be derived directly from the time difference between the same variation occurring in each image. The parallaxes of objects at E+3 Mpc distances are of obvious importance to a wide
