On the basis of a uniform series of photographic observations a 163 day period for the light variations of the N galaxy 3C 371 is found. The similarity of the form of the light curve for the different components of the light variations with the different time scales is noted. The form of the light variations was observed to be identical to that of the quasars 3C 345 and 3C 454.3.
