About two hundred stars within 50 pc from the sun, whose tangential velocity larger than 100 km/sec, have been selected on the basis of their proper motions and trigonometric parallaxes. A list of them along with their photoelectric UBV data and spectral types is given. The criterion on the tangential velocity, <TEX>$v_t$</TEX> > 132 km/sec, was adopted for selection of high-velocity stars. The H-R diagram of these nearby high-velocity stars resembles that of a globular cluster, with the turnoff around <TEX>$B-V{\approx}0.35$</TEX> and <TEX>$M_v{\approx}4.0$</TEX>, and the subdwarfs among these high-velocity stars are fainter than the main-sequence stars of Hyades by the amount of <TEX>$1^m.25{\pm}0^m.30$</TEX> in the region with B-V < 1.40 on the average.
