1.0 ACTIVITIES SCHEDULED AND ACCOMPLISHED:

   1.1 Completed WF/PC-2 5159 (Imaging and Spectroscopy of the Nearby 
       QSO2130+099: Cycle 4 Baseline)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make observations of nearby quasi-stellar
       object QSO2130+09. The observations were completed as schedule, and
       no problems were reported. 

   1.2 Completed WF/PC-2  5476 (Continuum Snapshots of 3CR Radio Galaxies) 

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make snapshot images of radio galaxy 3C442.0
       as part of a continuum survey and to study the galaxy's morphology.
       The observations were executed as scheduled, and no anomalies were
       noted. 

   1.3 Completed WF/PC-2 5408 (Star Cluster and CNO Abundance in Blue 
       Compact Galaxies With Extreme) 

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make observations of the star formation
       regions within the low metallicity  blue compact galaxy SBS0125-06
       to be used to determine the size, color, and luminosity of imbedded
       star clusters. There was one guide star recentering event reported
       which lasted for a total of three seconds. No other anomalies were
       noted. 

   1.4 Completed WF/PC-2 5464 (A Study of the AGB in Local Bulge 
       Populations)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make observations of the stellar bulge in
       galaxy NGC-224-2 to make a survey of its stellar population. The
       observations were completed as expected, and no problems were
       reported. 

   1.5 Completed Two Sets of FOS/BL 5658 (White Dwarf Calibration)

       The Faint Object Spectrograph (Blue Side) was used to make absolute
       sensitivity calibrations of the detectors using standard white dwarf
       stars HZ43 and GD153. The observations were executed as planned, and
       no anomalies were noted. 

   1.6 Completed Two Sets of WF/PC-2 5369 (HST Medium-Deep Survey: Cycle 4
       Medium, High Galactic  Latitude) 

       The WF/PC-2 made a series of observations of high latitude objects
       as part of a medium deep sky survey. The observations were taken in
       parallel with other prime science observations. The observations
       were completed as scheduled, and no anomalies were noted. 

   1.7 Completed WF/PC-2 5446 (The Nuclei of Nearby S0 and Spiral Galaxies:
       A PC Snapshot Imaging) 

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make observations of the core region of galaxy
       NGC-4559 to provide statistics on the nuclear cusps, stellar
       condensations, and inner stellar disks and dust lanes. The
       observations were executed as scheduled, and no anomalies were
       noted. 

   1.8 Completed FOS/RD 5512 (Cores of Early Type Galaxies: Part II)

       The Faint Object Spectrograph (Red Side) was used to obtain
       rotational profiles and velocity dispersions around the core of
       galaxy NGC-3115-NU. The observations were executed as scheduled, and
       no anomalies were noted.
