We have obtained simultaneous radial velocity observations and differential magnitude observations of the $beta$ Cep star HR 6684. The full amplitude of the velocity curve is 18 km sec$sup -1$ and the range in blue light is 0.033m. The ratio of these values is 550 km sec$sup -1$ mag$sup -1$ and maximum light falls at minimum radius. In these respects, HR 6684 is similar to other $beta$ Cep stars. There is some evidence for a beat effect. The spectral lines are sharp ($nu$ sin i = 110 km sec$sup -1$) and appear to vary in their profiles. (auth)
