HT Cas: updated superhump period

   Maehara-san, Okayama U. of Sci. team, Kyoto team (Ohshima-san)
and Enrique de Miguel have reported new observations.
The superhumps were between eclipses during the last segment of
observations.

   The mean superhump period at this stabilized stage has been
0.07636(6) d (3.7% longer than Porb), with a slight decreasing
tendency.  Since overlapping eclipses affect determination of
superhump maxima, we need additional data and more detailed analysis
before concluding on period variation.

   We expect to see next conjunction of eclipses and superhump maxima
on this night.
