Spatial coincidences between supernova remnants and OB associations or H II regions are sought, and a list of about 30 objects (referred to as 'SNOBs') is obtained. On the basis of COS B data it is found that five, or perhaps six, of 11 as-yet unidentified gamma-ray sources are associated with SNOBs and that as many as three-fourths of the best-id…
