Description:
    We present  the data  from an  extensive, moderately  deep (b_J_~19.5)
    spectroscopic  survey of ~600 galaxies within  four regions of the sky
    located near the South  Galactic  Pole.  About  75%  of  the  measured
    galaxies are  in an approximately 3x1.5sq.deg  region dominated by the
    rich  cluster of  galaxies Klemola  44 (Abell  4038). The  other three
    small areas  cover about 1sq.deg each. Here,  we discuss in detail the
    observing and  data reduction strategies, and  the completeness of and
    errors in  the measured redshifts.  The data collected  are being used
    for: (i) a study of  the  large-scale  redshift  distribution  of  the
    galaxies in each field, and (ii) a thorough dynamical investigation of
    Klemola   44.  Results  from  these  analyses  will  be  presented  in
    forthcoming papers.
