Abstract:
    Differential Stroemgren uvby photometric observations from the Four
    College Automated Photoelectric Telescope are presented for four
    Chemically Peculiar stars of the upper main sequence: the HgMn star
    binary AR Aurigae and the magnetic stars 3 Hydrae, 49 Cancri, and
    BX Bootis. AR Aurigae shows little variability except during the
    primary and secondary eclipses. The 11.305 day period of Maitzen et
    al. for 3 Hya is confirmed. A new period of 7.0501 days is found for
    49 Cancri while a slightly refined period of 2.88756 days is derived
    for BX Boo.
