Abstract
A total of 266 photoelectric observations(91 in V, 93 in B, and 82 in U) for an eclipsing binary, ZZ Cnc, has been secured by using the 61-cm reflector and an uncooled iP21 photomultiplier phototube of Yonsei University Observatory during 4 years from March 1984 to May 1988. One time of minimum light, JD 2446887.534 is obtained. Although Kim et al.(1988) suggested the possibility of the period change, the present study shows that the orbital period of ZZ Cnc should be constant. According in a reasonable interpretation of the eclipse light curves. Min I = JD Hel 2446887.574+25d.5944E
