1.0 ACTIVITIES SCHEDULED AND ACCOMPLISHED:

   1.1 Completed WF/PC-2 5563 (WF/PC-2 Cycle 4 Photometric Calibration
       Monitor 1: UV /OPT STD.)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make photometric calibration images of
       ultraviolet standard star GRW+70D582 and monitor the photometric
       stability and quantum efficiency of the WF/PC-2. The observations
       were executed as scheduled, and no anomalies were noted.

   1.2 Completed FGS 5316 (Masses of Pre-Main Sequence Stars: Cycle 4
       Medium)

       The Fine Guidance Sensors were used in the TRANS Mode to make
       astrometric observations of the pre-main sequence binary star GN-Tau
       in the Taurus star forming region. The FGS data will provide the
       apparent orbits. The observations were executed as scheduled, and no
       anomalies were noted.

   1.3 Completed WF/PC-2 5370 (HST Medium-Deep Survey: Cycle 4 High, High
       Galactic Latitude)

       The WF/PC-2 was used in parallel with the prime science observations
       to make high galactic latitude observations as part of a medium-deep
       sky survey. The observations were completed as planned, and no
       problems were reported.

   1.4 Completed Two Sets of 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 MARK3, MGC8-11-11 and PKS2152-69 to study
       the interactions between the central engine, the stars, and the
       interstellar matter in their AGNs. The observations were executed as
       scheduled, and no anomalies were noted.

   1.5 Completed WF/PC-2 5493 (Synoptic Monitoring of Seasonal Phenomena
       on Mars: Cycle 4 Medium)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make observations of the planet Mars at
       selected seasons, looking for periodic changes. The observations
       were executed as scheduled, and no anomalies were noted.

   1.6 Completed WF/PC-2 5663 (WF/PC-2 Cycle 4: Photometric Calibration
       Monitor: Fields Part 2)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make observations of globular cluster
       NGC-6752 with various filters in order to check the photometric
       calibration of the WF/PC-2. The observations were completed as
       planned, and no anomalies were reported.

   1.7 Completed HRS/2 5468 (The Mass of the White Dwarf of V471 Tauri:
       Cycle 4 Medium)

       The High Resolution Spectrograph (Side 2) was used to observe the
       white dwarf in the eclipsing binary system, V471 Tau.  The
       observations were made when the target was at positions of greatest
       elongations on each side of the companion star.  The target's
       velocity curve was found from the strong Lyman Alpha absorption, and
       will be used to calculate the mass.  The observations completed with
       no reported problems.

   1.8 Completed GHRS/2 5671 (GHRS Dark Noise Monitor: Cycle 4)

        The High Resolution spectrograph (Side Two) was used to make dark
        calibration images. These were strictly internal tests for routine
        monitoring of detector dark noise. The observations were executed
        as scheduled, and no anomalies were noted.

   1.9 Completed FGS 5657 (Duplicity Among Hyades Stars: Cycle 4 High)

       The FGSs (TRANS-Mode) were used to make astrometric observations of
       star VA677 located in the Hyades cluster in an attempt to find a
       close binary. The observations were executed as scheduled, and no
       anomalies were noted.

   1.10 Completed GHRS/2 5503 (Absorption Line Studies Toward BD+38D2182
        and HD93521)

       The High Resolution Spectrograph (Side Two) was used to make
       absorption line observations of the galactic halo by looking toward
       star BD-38D2182. A wavelength calibration image was also taken. The
       observations were completed as planned, and no problems were
       reported.
