[AZ-Observing] Trapezium Eclipsing Variable Star Light Curve

At the last SAC meeting, Paul Dickson informed us of a favorable minimum of the
eclipsing bnary star Theta 1 Orionis A in the Trapezium in the Orion Nebula.
Mid-eclipse occurs just after midnight on December 2, when the star will be
magnitude 7.7.
I wondered where I could find a good light curve that would describe how
rapidly it fades and brightens. I came up empty when I tried the AAVSO light
curve generator, and Googling for images was equally fruitless.
