Primarily Galactic stars with high radial velocity near the Magellanic Clouds
UBV photoelectric measurements and spectral types (sometimes revised)are presented for 54 mostly-foreground high-radial-velocity stars nearand between the SMC and LMC. The color-color diagram is shown to be verysimilar to that of Omega Cen. It is noted that four of the stars aresubdwarves, 23 stars are submetallic or horizontal branch stars, onestar is probably a member of the LMC, and the rest are population Istars of luminosity classes III-V. The density of high-velocityforeground stars towards the Magellanic Clouds appears to be about 20times higher than in other directions of similar galactic latitude.
