The Millimeter-wave Anisotropy Experiment searches for anisotropy
in the cosmic microwave background on degree angular scales. The balloon-borne
100mK bolometric receiver has four frequency bands centered at 3, 6, 9, and
14 cm$^{-1}$. We present results from
two observations in low dust contrast regions of the sky
during the fifth flight in June 1994. The
two observations are centered on the stars HR1527
($\alpha$=13h37.2m, $\delta$=36$^\circ$19')
and Phi Herculis ($\alpha$=16h08.6m, $\delta$=44$^\circ$57').
