    RE0751+14, is the most important magnetic cataclysmic variables (CV) 
    discovered for many years.Whilst undeniably an intermediate polar(IP)
    , it exhibits many properties characteristic of the strongly magnetic
    AM Her stars. As,  potentially, the first example of the long sought-
    after progenitors of the AM Her stars, it is of crucial importance to
    our understanding of the evolution and magnetic field distribution in
    the magnetic CVs. ROSAT and GINGA  observations of RE0751+14 reveal  
    complicated light curves and spectra. Using ASCA, we propse to secure
    modestly phase-resolved, diagnostically powerful  0.5-10~keV X-ray   
    spectroscopy of RE0751+14 to pin down the nature and origin of the   
    spectral components and to examine the contribution of absorbing     
   media in  this important binar
