Abstract:
    A large number of stars from photometrically homogeneous catalogs are
    used to derive the normal energy distribution for giants of 15
    spectral subclasses. To judge the reliability of the results obtained,
    the mean (B-V)_S_ color indices calculated for a sample of stars with
    spectrophotometry are compared with the mean (B-V) for a complete
    sample of stars of a given subclass from the Bright Star (<V/50>)
    catalog.
