Radial Velocity Studies of Southern Close Binary Stars.I
  Radial-velocity measurements and sine-curve fits to the orbital velocity variations are presented for nine contact binaries, V1464 Aql, V759 Cen, DE Oct, MW Pav, BQ Phe, EL Aqr, SX Crv, VZ Lib, GR Vir; for the first five among these, our observations are the first available radial velocity data. Among three remaining radial velocity variables, CE Hyi is a known visual binary, while CL Cet and V1084 Sco are suspected to be multiple systems where the contact binary is spectrally dominated by its companion (which itself is a binary in V1084 Sco). Five additional variables, V872 Ara, BD Cap, HIP 69300, BX Ind, V388 Pav, are of unknown type, but most are pulsating stars; we give their mean radial velocities and Vsini.
