Dewdney, P. E. ; Roger, R. S. ; Purton, C. R. ; McCutcheon, W. H. Abstract The paper presents observations of a compact H I source coincident with a strong, far-infrared source, IRAS 23545 + 6508. It is believed that this object is representative of a new observational class which traces stars in the range of spectral types from B1 to B5 which are embedded in molecular clouds. Using methods based on birthrate statistics and other data, it is estimated that there are of order 1000 such sources within a radius of 2 kpc of the sun.
