A photometric study of Be stars in the JHKL system is reported here. Early papers (see Feinstein and Marraco, 1980) about bright southern Be stars observed photoelectrically in the UBVRI system and in the Balmer-lines: Hα, Hβ and Hγ, permit us to derive several conclusions about their light variability, the amount of emission in the α and β indices, and some correlations about these data. On the other hand, we recently found (Feinstein and Marraco, 1981) that the emission strengths of the hydrogen lines are well correlated to the amount of excess radiation in the near-in-frared of the RI system.
