New measurements are presented of the photon structure function F_2^gamma(Q) at four values of Q^2 between 9 and 59 GeV/c^2 based on data collected with the OPAL detector at centre-of-mass energies of 161-172 GeV, with a total integrated luminosity of 18.1 pb^-1. The evolution of F_2^gamma with Q^2 in bins of x is determined in the Q^2 range from 1.86 to 135 GeV/c^2 using data taken at centre-of-mass energies of 91 GeV and 161-172 GeV. F_2^gamma is observed to increase with Q^2 with a slope of 1/alpha_em dF_2^gamma/dln(Q^2) = 0.10 +0.05 -0.03 measured in the range 0.1 < x < 0.6.

Measured values of F2 for the SW sample.

Measured values of F2 for the FD sample.

F2 for the full X range (0.1 to 0.6) as a function of Q**2. The full SW andFD sample points are tabulated for completeness but are not in the plot or fits . The first three points are previous OPAL data at sqrt(s) = 91 GeV (ZP C74(1997)33).
