Results are reported for digicon spectrophotometric observations of the radio source 0938+119, which was originally classified as a faint red galaxy. A prism spectrum of the source is presented along with the corresponding sky measurement, and several features of the spectrum are described. It is shown that this source is a QSO with a magnitude of 20.1, a redshift z = 3.19, and a spectrum similar to that of OH 471 or 4C 05.34. The question of whether other faint high-redshift QSOs have been misclassified as galaxies is considered.
