Description:
   Stroemgren uvby{beta} photometry has been collected for a total of 1017 stars
   earlier than G0 lying in an area of the sky containing the Southern Coalsack,
   the Musca, and the Chamaeleon dark clouds. The targets were selected from
   the SAO star catalog, and the results give V, b-y, m_1_, c_1_, and {beta} on
   the standard systems, with overall rms errors for one observation of one star
   of 0.008mag , 0.004mag , 0.006mag , 0.009mag , and 0.011mag , respectively.
