We describe an ongoing variable star search program and present the firstreduced results of a search in a 19 square degree (4.4\circle x 4.4\circle)field centered on J2000 {\alpha} = 22:03:24, {\delta} = +18:54:32. The searchwas carried out with the Baker-Nunn Patrol Camera located at the RothneyAstrophysical Observatory in the foothills of the Canadian Rockies. A total of26,271 stars were detected in the field, over a range of about 11-15(instrumental) magnitudes. Our image processing made use of the IRAF version ofthe DAOPHOT aperture photometry routine and we used the ANOVA method to searchfor periodic variations in the light curves. We formally detected periodicvariability in 35 stars, that we tentatively classify according to light curvecharacteristics: 6 EA (Algol), 5 EB ({\beta} Lyrae), 19 EW (W UMa), and 5 RR(RR Lyrae) stars. Eleven of the detected variable stars have been reportedpreviously in the literature. The eclipsing binary light curves have beenanalyzed with a package of light curve modeling programs and 25 have yieldedconverged solutions. Nine of these systems are detached, 3 semi0detached, 10over-contact, and 2 appear to be in marginal contact. We discuss these resultsas well as the advantages and disadvantages of the instrument and of theprogram.
