Five plates from the Sandage two-color survey of the Galactic plane have been examined, yielding 161 UV-bright sources and one potential new planetary nebula. The plates were obtained using the Palomar 48 inch (1.2 m) Oschin Schmidt telescope, and each covers a field of view of 43 deg 2 . The plates were centered at the Galactic longitude (l) and latitude (b) coordinates (13 .1, 0), (104 .1, 0), (128, 0), (179, 0), and (179, 6). Identified sources range in color from to ∼1.2, and in magnitude
