Monitoring of the Small Magellanic Cloud with the RXTE Proportional Counter Array has revealed a periodicity in the X-ray pulsar 2E 0050.1-7247 (Israel et al. 1997, ApJ, 484, L141). An extended outburst from this source was detected on 2003 January 13 and weekly monitoring showed that this particular outburst continued until 2003 February 18. The source was subsequently detected less frequently in continued weekly monitoring and detections of 2E 0050.1-7247, excluding the early 2003 outburst, occurred on the following MJDs: 52849, 52904, 52933, 52940, 52961, 52993, 53019, 53044, 53068, 53075, 53102, 53128, 53136.
