Abstract: A high resolution spectrum (5575 - 8875\AA) of the cool R Coronae Borealis variable S Apodis in its 1993 deep decline is discussed. Narrow or chromospheric emission lines of Na I, K I, Ca II, and Ba II and broad emission lines of He I 7065\AA and Na I D are seen, as expected from published reports of warmer RCBs in decline. The surprise of the S Aps spectrum is the considerable blue shift of the broad emissions component to the Na D lines. The blue shift may result from lines formed in a bipolar flow which is obscured asymmetrically by soot clouds along the line of sight. (SECTION: Stars)
