Frail (NRAO) report on behalf of the Caltech GRB collaboration:  \n\"We obtained spectra of the proposed optical transient counterpart (OT) of \nGRB 971214 (Halpern et al., IAUC 6788) at the Keck-II 10-m telescope, on the \nnight of 17 Dec 1997 UT.  Our preliminary data reductions reveal no strong \nemission lines from the OT itself.  However, we also obtained at the same time\nspectra of the faint galaxy approximately 4.5 arcsec to the north of the OT.  \nThis galaxy shows a relatively blue continuum and an extended emission line \nat a wavelenght of 7533 A, which we tentatively interpret as [O II] 3727 line \nat z = 1.02.\"",
