The classical Algol-type eclipsing binary systems U Sge and U Cep are studied and compared against a background of photometric evidence. Broadband photometry of the primary minimum of U Sge over a four year period fails clearly to confirm Olson's (1982) finding of radial variations. On the other hand, the 'W'-type pattern of variation indicated in Olson's (1976) Hβ photometry of the primary eclipse of U Cep is also noticed for U Sge. These effects are analysed in terms of an emitting accretion disk, surrounding the primary components. The findings can be placed in a "Case B"-type interacting binary context.
