An investigation was made on the dependence of systematic track distortion in a 10-in. diameter liquid hydrogen bubble chamber upon track position in the chamber, beam entry time, and flash delay. It is seen that provided photography occurs before recompression the distortions are small compared with the multiple scattering curvature and are not significantly different from zero except at the extreme top and bottom of the chamber.
