In a Fermilab 15-foot bubble-chamber experiment, ..mu../sup - +/..pi../sup + -/ mass spectra were studied in 8444 neutrino interactions and 1367 antineutrino interactions. No significant narrow mass enhancements were found. A peak near 430 MeV/c/sup 2/ was observed, but when resolution is taken into account its significance is only roughly-equal1sigma and its angular distributions do not show the characteristics expected for a resonance.
