Continuing our studies of radiative Υ decays, we report on a search for Υγη and ΥγfJ(2220) in 61.3 pb-1 of e+e- data taken with the CLEO II detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring. For the γη search the three decays of the η meson to π+π-π0, π0π0π0, and γγ were investigated. We found no candidate events in the (3π)0 modes and no significant excess over expected backgrounds in the γγ mode to set a limit on the branching fraction of B(Υγη)<2.1×10-5 at 90% C.L. The three charged two-body final states hh̅ (h=π+,K+,p) were investigated for fJ(2220) production, with one, one, and two events found, respectively. Limits at 90% C.L. of B(ΥγfJB(fJhh̅ )1.5×10-5 have been set for each of these modes. We compare our results to measurements of other radiative Υ decays, to measurements of radiative J/ψ decays, and to theoretical predictions.
