1.0 ACTIVITIES SCHEDULED AND ACCOMPLISHED:

   1.1 Completed WF/PC-2 5479 (Subarcsecond Structure in Nearby AGNs)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make snapshot observations of the nearby
       active galactic nuclei of NGC-4785 to study the interactions between
       the central engine, the stars, and the interstellar matter in the
       AGN. The observations were executed as scheduled, and no anomalies
       were noted.

   1.2 Completed FOS/BL 5339 (Central Stars of Planetary Nebulae)

       The Faint Object Spectrograph (Blue Side) was used to make
       ultraviolet observations of the central star of planetary nebula
       He2-108 (aka, PK316+8D1) to learn more about the properties of this
       type of star, and its winds. The observations were executed as
       scheduled, and no anomalies were noted.

   1.3 Completed WF/PC-2 5371 (HST Medium_ Deep Survey: Cycle 4 Medium Low
       Galactic Latitude)

       The WF/PC-2 was used in parallel with the prime science observations
       to make low galactic latitude deep multicolor images of objects such
       as galaxies, and stars in our galaxy. The observations were
       completed as planned, and no problems were reported.

   1.4 Completed Two Sets of FOS/BL 5579 (Cycle 4 Test: To Determine FOS
       Polarimetry Mode)

       The Faint Object Spectrograph (Blue Side) was used to make internal
       calibration observations of its polarization capabilities.
       Observations were also made of standard star BD+64D106. The
       observations were completed as planned, and no anomalies were
       reported.

   1.5 Completed Two Sets of WF/PC-2 5092 (GTO Low Latitude Parallel
       Program: Cycle 4)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make observations taken in parallel with the
       prime science observations. This is part of a survey to take
       pictures of a large number of fields within 30 degrees of the
       galactic plane. The observations were completed as planned, and no
       problems were reported.

   1.6 Completed WF/PC-2 5397 (Determination of the Extragalactic Distance
       Scale: Cycle 4 High)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make images of galaxy NGC-925 to be used in
       measuring the periods of Cepheid variable stars within the galaxy.
       The observations were completed as planned, and no anomalies were
       noted.

   1.7 Completed WF/PC-2 5569 (WF/PC-2 Cycle 4 Calibration: Internal Flats)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make flat field calibration images with the
       VIS lamp, and the internal source. The observations were completed
       as planned, and no problems were reported.

   1.8 Completed FGS 5587 (Parallaxes of Hyades Cluster Members: Cycle 4
       High)

       The Fine Guidance Sensors were used to make observations of stars in
       the Hyades Cluster (i.e., PCEN472, VA472, AST86-REF, AST87-REF,
       AST-88-REF, AST89-REF, AST92-REF, AST86-REF, AST91-REF) to determine
       the parallax of the stars and to compute the distance modulus of the
       cluster. The observations were completed as planned, and no problems
       were reported.
