PERIOD COVERED:  0800 EST
Daily Status Report as of 306/1200Z.

1.0 ACTIVITIES SCHEDULED AND ACCOMPLISHED:

   1.1 Completed Five Sets of WFC 4713 (WF/PC Cycle 2 Calibration: WFC
       Internal Delta Flats)

       The Wide Field Camera was used to make a total of seven internal
       flat calibrations images. All seven images were reported to be
       normal.

   1.2 Completed FOC/96 5033 (FOC Camera, 2nd, 3rd Stage Focus - Cycle 3 )

       The Faint Object Camera (f/96) was used to run the HISTOGRAM mode
       test of the Camera internal focus. All test exposures were entirely
       internal using the green LED. This test mode does not produce data
       that is sent to the ground in the science stream. No anomalies were
       reported.

   1.3 Completed four Sets of WFC 4381 (HST Medium - Deep Survey - Cycle 3)

       The Wide Field Camera was used to make four sets of medium-deep high
       latitude sky survey observations taken in parallel with the prime
       science observations. The observations were executed as scheduled. A
       loss of lock occurred during one of the observations following a
       recentering event. ( See Operational Note 2.1).


   1.4 Completed FOS/BL 4122 (The Stellar Content of Wolf - Rayet Galaxies
       (FOS Spectra))

       The Faint Object Spectrograph (Blue Side) was used to make
       observations of the Wolf - Rayet Galaxy NGC-4214 which is similar to
       a starbursting galaxy, but has broad emission lines of He II at 4664
       A0. Seven observations were received and displayed. The target
       acquisition was successful. No anomalies were reported.

   1.5 Completed PC 4854 (Galaxies and Clusters, WFPC GTO Augmentation,
       Cycle 3 High)

       The Planetary Camera was used to make images of the nuclear regions
       of galaxy NGC-2681-NU to study its luminosity profile. Two
       observations were monitored in the OSS. The science data still
       remains on the science tape recorder. No problems were reported.

   1.6 Completed HSP/VIS 4209 (HSP Detector Sensitivity Test)

       The High Speed Photometer was used to make four calibration
       observations of standard star BD+75D325 to determine the instruments
       long term sensitivity of the IDT detectors. All four observations
       were received and displayed. All four observations were reported to
       look normal. A recentering event occurred during the last
       observation.

   1.7 Completed FOS/RD 4581 (Quasar Absorption Line Survey - Cycle 3 High)

       The Faint Object Spectrograph (Red Side) was used to make
       observations of quasar PKS2128-12 to learn more about the origin and
       evolution of gas clouds along the line of sight of this target. The
       OSS monitored the observation, and assessed the data quality. No
       anomalies were reported.

   1.8 Completed PC 4851 (Globular Cluster Cores, WFPC GTO Augmentation,
       Cycle 3 High)

       The Planetary Camera was used to make ultraviolet observations of
       the core of standard star BD+28D4211 to obtain the point spread
       function to be used for subsequent globular cluster observations.
       The observations were executed as scheduled, and no problems were
       reported.

                          Loss of Fine Lock at 306/0509Z following a
                          recentering event. Subsequent acquisition was
                          successful.

   2.4 Operations Note:

       The GHRS Repair Kit aliveness test was held as scheduled at 6:15PM
       EST on Monday, Nov. 1. The test sent and verified three lines of
       GHRS science data to the NSSC-I, using the inflight GHRS instruments
       and SI C&DH. The test was successful, verifying the aliveness test
       to be used after the Repair Kit is installed during the First
       Servicing Mission.
