A study of charm fragmentation into $D_s^{*+}$ and $D_s^+$ in $e^+e^-$ annihilations at $\sqrt{s}$=10.5 GeV is presented. This study using $4.72 \pm 0.05$ fb$^{-1}$ of CLEO II data reports measurements of the cross-sections $\sigma(D_s^{*+})$ and $\sigma(D_s^+)$ in momentum regions above $x=0.44$, where $x$ is the $D_s$ momentum divided by the maximum kinematically allowed $D_s$ momentum. The $D_s$ vector to vector plus pseudoscalar production ratio is measured to be $P_V(x(D_s^+)>0.44)=0.44\pm0.04$

D/S*+ cross sections in regions of X(D/S*+). BR1 = BR(D/S*+ --> D/S+ GAMMA) * BR(D/S+ --> PHI PI+) * BR(PHI --> K+ K-).

D/S+ cross sections in regions of X(D/S+). BR2 = BR(D/S+ --> PHI PI+) * BR(PHI --> K+ K-).

D/S*+ cross sections in regions of X/D/S+. In effect this is the secondary D/S+ cross section. BR2 = BR(D/S+ --> PHI PI+) * BR(PHI --> K+ K-).
