Deep exposures with the IUE satellite have been obtained in order to search for high-temperature emission from stars with cool winds. Iota Aur and Theta Her are confirmed as hybrid stars, and an additional hybrid object, Gamma Aql, has been discovered. The emission line fluxes of the hybrid stars are analyzed to establish the emission measure distribution and, as far as possible, the electron density. The discovery of variable, high-velocity Mg II circumstellar absorption in Gamma Aql, Theta Her, and Alpha TrA is reported. Very long exposure of the latter show that cool material is being accelerated to velocities of at least 180 km/s. These observations suggest that high-velocity mass loss is more common than previously thought.
