VLA maps of the 10(1)-9(2)A(-) line of methanol show two velocity components. The narrower (FWHP about 2 km/sec, V(LSR) = 7.6 km/sec) component has a maximum near IRc4 and 5, a peak corrected brightness temperature of 120 + or - 10 K and a deconvolved size of 14 x 10 arcsec (P.A. 0 deg). The peak of this emission shifts 2 arcsec to the SW with increasing radial velocity. The wider velocity component (FWHP 7 km/sec) was traced by maps of the line wings. These are centered at the hot core, 6 arcsec north of the narrow component.
