1.0 ACTIVITIES SCHEDULED AND ACCOMPLISHED:

   1.1 Completed WFC 4929 (WF/PC Cycle 2: Improved Dark Calibration)

       The Planetary Camera was used to make two dark calibration images.
       The two exposures lasted 1200 seconds each, and the camera was
       pre-flashed before the observations. Both observations were reported
       to be still on the science tape recorder, and will be analyzed
       later.

   1.2 Completed FOS/RD 4817 (Quasar Absorption Line Survey: Cycle 2
       Observations)

       The Faint Object Spectrograph (Both the Red and Blue Sides) were
       used to make observations of quasar OJ287 and PG1718+481. This is a
       continuation of proposals 2424 and 3791. It is hoped that these
       observations will learn more about the structure and evolution of
       the gas distribution over a wide range of scales, and to look for
       changes that are correlated with red-shift. The onboard peakup was
       successful, and no anomalies were reported with the science
       observations.

   1.3 Complete Three Sets of WFC 5074 (WF/PC Cycle 3 Calibration: WFC
       Flats Narrow. 1)

       The Wide Field Camera was used to make Earth Flat images which will
       be used to remove pixel to pixel variations in the grain of the
       chips. Sixteen observations taken in pairs were taken for each
       filter. Two images were reported to be saturated, and two were
       underexposed. No other anomalies were noted.

   1.4 Completed Three Sets of WFC 4381 (HST Medium - Deep Survey - Cycle
       3)

       The Wide Field Camera was used to make two set of medium-deep high
       latitude sky survey observations taken in parallel with the prime
       science observations. The observations were executed as
       scheduled, normal exposures. One observation was received and was
       displayed. It was reported to look okay. The other observation
       remains on the science tape recorder, and will be analyzed later.

   1.5 Completed FOS/RD 3837 (Spectropolarimetry of Low Red-Shift Active
       Galactic Nuclei)

       The Faint Object Spectrograph (Red Side) was used to make
       spectropolarimetry observations of the low luminosity, low
       red-shift quasar 1338+416, to look for signs of polarization from
       below the Lyman limit to Lyman Alpha. This polarization should
       result if scattering of light is taking place in the accretion disk,
       as predicted by theory. The onboard peakup target acquisition showed
       the target was located where expected, and the science observations
       were reported to be okay.

   1.6 Completed WFC 4658 (Determination of the Extragalactic Distance
       Scale. III M-101)

       The Wide field Camera was used to make images of two different
       fields within the large spiral galaxy M-101 (aka, NGC-5457) which is
       located in Ursa Major. This is to help locate Cepheid variable stars
       to determine a reliable distance which can be effected by reddening
       and metallicity. The OSS monitored the observations, and assessed
        the data quality. No problems were reported.

   1.7 Completed PC 4308 (Snapshot Survey for Companions to Planetary
       Nebula Nuclei - Cycle 3 High)

       The Planetary Camera was used to make observations of the central
       region of planetary nebula FG-SGE and NGC-7044. It is possible that
       the central stars are double stars. The OSS monitored the
       observation and assessed the data quality. No anomalies were
       reported.

   1.8 Completed FOS/BL 3982 (Physical Conditions in the Narrow-Lined
       Region)

       Both Faint Object Spectrograph (Blue Side) and Wide Field Camera
       were used to make observations to make observations of Seyfert
       galaxy NGC-3393-OF. This object was selected based on early
       acquisition images obtained from proposal 2306. It is hoped these
       images will help learn more about the structure of the nucleus. The
       observations were executed as scheduled, and no problems were
       reported.

   1.9 Completed WFC 5013 (WF/PC Cycle 3 Calibration: WFC Flats Narrow. 2)

       The Wide Field Camera was used to make Earth flat calibration images
       to be used for flat fielding of WFC observations. The observations
       used the narrow band filters, both with and without neutral density
       filters. The observations were executed as scheduled, and no
       anomalies were noted.
