    Searches for gamma rays above 100 TeV from SN 1987A and above 50 TeV from Cen X-3 were carried out with an air shower array at Mount Chacaltaya over a period of 3 years. The array, which consists of 13 4 m2 and 28 1 m2 scintillation detectors, was located on a slope of about 30 facing southward to e ectively observe air showers coming from the directions of these sources. In the analysis, a selection by shower age parameter was applied to reduce the background due to showers initiated by protons or nuclei.
