Description
Results of a spectroscopic survey of white dwarf candidates from the Lowell Observatory lists are reported. UBV photometry is shown to be effective in enhancing the detection rate of DB white dwarfs. The spectrum of GD 40 contains lines of Ca ii H and K in addition to those of He i; it is the first DB to show lines of any element other than helium
