  Spectra of 38 candidate or known cataclysmic variables are presented. Most
are candidate dwarf novae or systems containing possible highly magnetic white
dwarfs, while a few (KR Aur, LS Peg, V380 Oph and V694 Mon) are previously
known objects caught in unusual states. Individual spectra are used to confirm
a dwarf nova nature or other classification while radial velocities of 15
systems provide orbital periods and velocity amplitudes that aid in determining
the nature of the objects. Our results substantiate a polar nature for four
objects, find an eclipsing SW Sex star below the period gap, another as a
likely intermediate polar, as well as two dwarf novae with periods in the
middle of the gap.
