Results are reported on optical observations of a sample of 1-Jy-class radio galaxies from the Third Bologna Catalog selected on the basis of their 408{minus}MHz flux densities greater than 1.0 Jy, 408 MHz spectral indices steeper than {minus}0.9, and no identifications at the limit of the Palomar Sky Survey. Optical identifications and redshifts are presented for eight sources (B3 0120 + 405, B3 0228 + 383, B3 0700 + 375, B3 0731 + 438, B3 0744 + 464, B3 0903 + 428, B3 0908 + 380A, and B3 0956 + 475). 6 refs.
