Polarimetric and H-beta photometric observations of 28 CMa, obtained with the 0.75-m telescope at SAAO in April/May 1983 and with the 1.0-m telescope at Roque de los Muchachos Observatory in January 1985, are reported and analyzed. The data are combined with previous radial-velocity measurements and the photometry of Balona et al. (1987) and presented in a series of radial-velocity curves. It is found that 28 CMa is probably an oblique rotator, with stellar inclination i = 52 + or - 26 deg and the variable polarigenic source near the pole. A period of 2.7335 d is shown to fit the combined data better than the 1.36673-d period proposed by Baade (1982) on the basis of spectrometry.
