Description:
    Four Be stars, HR 1960, HR 2968, HR 3237 and HR 3642, selected
    according to their periodic variations in Hipparcos and Geneva
    photometries, have been monitored from 1998 until 2001 with the
    Coralie spectrograph. HR 1960 and HR 3237 are two new spectroscopic
    binaries, HR 3642 is a new lambda Eri star, and HR 2968 is stable.
