Mario Hamuy and Nidia Morrell (Carnegie Observatories), Julia Arias
(Observatorio de La Plata), and Rodolfo Barba (Universidad de La Serena),
report that a spectrum (range 390-900 nm) of SN 2003gr (cf. IAUC 8169),
obtained on Jul 31.31 UT with the Las Campanas Observatory Baade 6.5-m
telescope telescope (+ B&C), shows that this is a Type Ia supernova.
The spectrum bears strong resemblance to that of SN 1994D taken 11 days
after maximum. The minimum of the Si II 635.5 nm line yields an expansion
velocity of -10200 km/s (adopting the NED host-galaxy recession velocity
of 7691 km/s).

A spectrum of SN2003gi (cf. 8161) taken on Jul 31.32 UT shows that this
is a Type Ia supernova. The spectrum is similar to that of SN 1994D
taken 76 days past maximum.

A spectrum of SN2003gh (cf. 8159) taken on Jul 31.44 UT shows that this
is a Type Ia supernova. The spectrum is similar to that of SN 1994D
taken 38 days past maximum.
