    Angle-resolved photoemission energy distributions (PED's) were obtained from valence bands of MnF{sub 2} single crystals using AlK{alpha} radiation. A pronounced variation in the PED's was observed as the electron take-off angle was varied relative to the crystalline axes, for the (111) crystal face. The observed variation is attributed to the t{sub 2g} and e{sub g} symmetry properties of the manganese 3d initial state wave functions and is well described by an angle-dependent transition-matrix model. The results are in good agreement with the multi-configurational Hartree-Fock calculations of Viinikka and Bagus
