Proton-proton elastic scattering has been measured in the region 4.9 < t < 12.1 GeV/sup 2/ at a beam momentum of 201 GeV/c. If the form exp(At) is fitted to the data, the exponent A gradually changes from 1.5 to 0.9 GeV/sup -2/ over our t range. The data are consistent with the form exp(-6.6p/sub/transverse)/A comparison with intersecting storage ring results shows that in this kinematical region the slopes are about the same, but dsigma/dt at fixed t is still dropping with energy.
