    The plane Newtonian three-body problem is considered from the point of view of finding of new periodic or stationary solutions. Until now there were known only Euler libration points, Lagrange libration points and the so-called ''8''- type periodic solutions in the mentioned problem. The last type of the periodic solutions exists in the case with the three equal masses. Here, it is proved that there exist some new symmetric non-collisional periodic solutions for some fixed samples of the non-equal masses.
