Abstract
Detailed line intensity measurements secured at Cerro Tololo Interamerican Observatory and corrected for interstellar extinction are presented for 19 HII regions in the Large Magellanic Cloud and 6 in the Small Magellanic Cloud. The elemental abundances derived by simple methods appear to be in good accord with those found by other observers. Detailed discussion is deferred to a later paper.Keywords
