The magnitudes and colors of the brightest stars in the area of Ho IX were determined from photometric data extracted from the B and V plates obtained with a 6-m telescope. A comparison of the results with data of Sandage (1984), Davidge and Jones (1989), and Hopp and Schulte-Ladbeck (1987) disclosed systematic discrepancies between new and published data. The new color-magnitude diagram was used to select the brightest supergiants. For three red stars and three blue stars of this group, the average values were found to be V(3R) = 19.96 mag and B(3B) = 20.66 mag, respectively.
