It has been pointed out that if parity is not conserved in the decay of hyperons, the distribution of the angles between the direction of the hyperon spin and the momentum of the decay secondaries may be asymmetric. A polarization effect In at-rest K/sup -/ capture by a proton is discussed. 316 events are analyzed in which only a pi /sup plus or minus / meson and a SIGMA /sup plus or minus / hyperon were emitted.
