Optical and radio observations of the helium abundances in the southern H II regions NGC 3576, RCW 38, and NGC 6357 are discussed. A discrepancy between optical and radio-recombination-line values for N(He+)/N(H+) in the case of NGC 6357 is attributed to the dissimilar observing techniques. One possibility is that the radio observations with bandwidths of about 6 prime are integrating over regions which include much neutral helium, while the optical observations encompass regions of high surface brightness in H beta. Systematic calibration error appears ruled out by the good agreement in the case of NGC 3576.-
