SECOND BATSE BURST CATALOGUE
     C. Meegan, Marshall Space Flight Center, reports for the BATSE
team:  "The second BATSE catalogue of gamma-ray bursts is now
available through the Gamma-Ray Observatory Science Support Center.
The catalogue comprises 585 bursts observed through 1993 Mar. 9 and
includes the previously released 1B catalogue.  To access the
catalogue, INTERNET users should type 'telnet grossc.gsfc.nasa.gov';
DECNET users should type 'set host grossc'.  The login name is

SUPERNOVA 1994I IN NGC 5194
     R. Rudy and Y. Dotan, The Aerospace Corporation; and C.
Woodward, J. Cole, and T. Hodge, University of Wyoming, report the
following near-infrared magnitudes (with 1-sigma errors of 0.08 mag)
for SN 1994I, obtained on Apr. 23.2 UT using the Aerospace near-
infrared camera (which incorporates a NICMOS3 array) on the 2.3-m
telescope of the Wyoming Infrared Observatory:  J = 13.18; H =
12.70; [2.00-2.32 microns] = 12.33.
