1.0 ACTIVITIES SCHEDULED AND ACCOMPLISHED:

   1.1 Completed PC 5014 (WF/PC Cycle 3 Calibration: PC Flats Narrow. 2)

       The Planetary Camera was used to make standard Earth calibrations
       images for flat fielding of PC observations. Medium and narrow
       filters were used, with and without neutral density filters. The
       observations were executed as scheduled, and no problems were
       reported.

   1.2 Completed FOS/RD/BL 5051 (FOS Cycle 3 Polarimetric Calibration)

       The Faint Object Spectrograph (Red and Blue Sides) were used to make
       observations of the standard star BD+64D106 to make polarimetric
       calibration observations. The onboard target acquisitions were
       successful, and the target was nicely bracketed. All of the science
       observations were reported to be normal.

   1.3 Completed Two Sets of PC 4902 (HST Medium - Deep Survey - Part 2:
       Low Latitude - Cycle 3 High)

       The Planetary Camera was used to make four long exposures taken in
       parallel with the prime science observation. Areas of interest are
       galactic structure and evolution. There is also the possibility of
       serendipitous discoveries.  The observations were received and
       displayed in the OSS. There were four observations which were
       reviewed, and they all were reported to be okay.

   1.4 Completed Seven Sets of PC 4714 (WF/PC Cycle 2 Calibration: PC
       Internal Delta Flats)

       The Faint Object Camera was used to make seven internal flat
       calibration images which will be used for the restoration of Earth
       flat image. These images were altered due to changes in quantum
       efficiency which occurred after decontamination operations. The
       observations were received and displayed in the OSS. They were
       reported to look okay.

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

       The Faint Object Spectrograph (Red Side) was used to make one
       observation of quasar PG1008+133 to learn more about the origin and
       evolution of gas clouds along the line of sight of this target. The
       observation was received and displayed. The observation was reported
       to be normal.

   1.6 Completed WFC 4713 (WF/PC Cycle 2 calibration: WFC Internal Delta
       Flats)

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

   1.7 Completed Two Sets of PC 5072 (WF/PC Cycle 3 Calibration: PC Flats
       Wide. 1)

       Both the Wide Field Camera and the Planetary camera were used to
       make Earth Flat calibration exposures using the wide and medium band
       filters. Six observations were received and displayed in the OSS.
       Three images were okay, one was saturated, and two were
       underexposed.

   1.8 Completed Two Sets of FOS/BL 5050 (Cycle 2 Internal Wavelength
       Calibration)

       The Faint Object Spectrograph was used to make calibration spectra
       for every detector/ grating combination through the 0.3" circular
       and 0.1" paired apertures. The observations were monitored in the
       OSS, and the data quality was assessed. A total of five observations
       were received, and displayed. All five observations were reported to
       be normal.

   1.9 Completed PC 5483 (Test of Simple Guide Star Hand-off)

       This was a test of the new guide star hand-off capability for moving
       targets. The WFPC was used to make a exposure of the fast moving
       asteroid 3361-ORPHE, then the FGS dropped lock, and acquired another
       pair of guide stars. The drift in the position of the asteroid
       between the two exposures will be used to assess the successes of
       the procedure. No anomalies were reported.

   1.10 Completed FOS/BL 3441 (Post Asymptotic Giant Branch Evolution in
       the Magellanic Clouds)

       The Faint Object Spectrograph was used to make three spectral
       observations of the planetary nebula SMC-SMP-6 which is located in
       the Small Magellanic Cloud. This is to determine the angular size of
       the target. The observations were executed as scheduled, and no
       anomalies were reported.

   1.11 Completed Two Sets of WFC 5013 (WF/PC Cycle 2 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 OSS monitored the observations  and assessed the data
       quality. No problems were reported.

   1.12 Completed PC/FOC/96 3807 (Minkowski's Object)

       The Faint Object Camera (f/96)  and the Planetary Camera were used
       to make observations of Minkowski's object, which is a starburst
       region triggered by a high energy radio jet. The history fo star
       formation will be traced along the path of the shock front by
       obtaining images over a wide range of wavelengths. The observations
       were executed on schedule, and no anomalies were reported.
