Searches for high-velocity C-12O emission from possible molecular-outflow candidates, and CS emission from dense cores in the vicinity of each IRAS source, were conducted during a mm-wave survey of a flux-limited sample of IRAS sources within a 4 sq deg region of the L1641 portion of the Orion A molecular cloud. The C-12O line emission width is noted to be correlated with the strength of the integrated CS emission. Attention was given to the IR properties of the embedded sources; the molecular outflow candidate sources have generally redder 12-25 micron colors and bluer 60-100 micron colors than the nonmolecular outflow candidates. 31 refs.
