http://cdsads.u-strasbg.fr//full/1972ApJ...178..743L/0000760.html It is a pleasure to thank D. M. Mihalas for valuable advice at all stages of this investigation and for providing the hydrogen and helium line-profile programs. I am grateful to W. W. Morgan for originally drawing my attention to these strong-helium stars
