 Desist order dated October 7, 1993, issued by the Securities and  Exchange
 Commission  (the  "Commission")  requiring  Telco  and  certain  of  its
 affiliates  to  permanently  cease  and desist from committing any further
 violations of Section l6(a) of the Securities  Exchange  Act  of  l934  as
 amended  and the rules promulgated thereunder, which requires monthly and
 other periodic  reports  of  transactions  in  certain  securities.   The
 Commission  found  some  of  the reports of such transactions to have been
 filed  delinquently although many  of  these  transactions  were  between
 affiliated  entities  or had been publicly reported in other reports filed
 with the Commission or had been otherwise publicly announced.

 ITEM 3   Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

               Not Applicable

 ITEM 4.  Purpose of Transaction.

         The purpose of  purchases  of  securities of Rocky Mountain by Sew
 Simple is for investment.

         The reporting persons intend to review continuously their position
  in  Rocky  Mountain and may, depending upon  their  evaluation  of  Rocky
 Mountain's business  and prospects as well as upon future developments and
  upon price, availability  of  shares  and  other  factors,  determine  to
 increase, decrease or eliminate their position in Rocky Mountain.

          The  reporting persons are not considering any plans or proposals
 which relate to  or  would  result  in:  (a)  an  extraordinary  corporate
  transaction,  such as a merger, reorganization, or liquidation, involving
 Rocky Mountain or  any  of  its  subsidiaries; (b) a sale or transfer of a
 material amount of assets of Rocky  Mountain  or  any of its subsidiaries;
 (c) any change in Rocky Mountain's Board of Directors  or management other
 than as set forth in Item 6 below; (d) any material change  in the present
 capitalization or dividend policy of Rocky Mountain other than  set  forth
  in  Item  6  below; (e) any material change in Rocky Mountain's business,
 corporate structure, charter or by-laws; (f) any change which would impede
 the acquisition  of control of Rocky Mountain by any person; (g) any class
 of securities of Rocky  Mountain to be delisted; (h) Rocky Mountain common
 stock to be eligible to be  deregistered under the Securities Exchange Act
 of l934; or (i) any action similar to those enumerated above.

 ITEM 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

         (a)Sew Simple owns indirectly  799,357  shares  of common stock of
 Rocky Mountain.  All securities owned by Sew Simple may also  be deemed to
 be owned beneficially by the other reporting persons.

          (b)Each  of  the reporting persons may be deemed to possess  both
 sole power to direct the  vote and sole power to direct the disposition of
 the securities of Rocky Mountain owned by Sew Simple.

          (c)In addition to  the  shares  owned by Sew Simple, Mr. Engle is
 the beneficial owner of 15,000 shares of Rocky Mountain common stock owned
 by a corporation in which he holds a majority  interest.  A further 10,000
 shares of Rocky Mountain common stock are owned beneficially by members of
 Mr. Engle's immediate family; Mr. Engle disclaims any beneficial  interest
 in these shares.

         (d)   On December 23, 1996, an Agreed Order of Liquidation was
 entered in respect of Coronet Insurance Company, ("Coronet") a wholly owned
 subsidiary of Sunstates, pursuant to which, among other  things,  beneficial
 ownership  of  an  aggregate of 69,400 shares of the common  stock  of  
 Rocky  Mountain was transferred from Coronet to the Office of the Special 
 Deputy of  the  Illinois Department of Insurance for the benefit of  the 
 policyholders, creditors and shareholders of Coronet. Sunstates has 
 determined that its beneficial interest in these shares is now remote and
 therefore it will no longer report a beneficial ownership in these 69,400
 shares.



 ITEM 6.  Contracts, Arrangements or Understandings with Respect to Securities
 of the Issuer.

          NONE

 ITEM 7.  Materials to be Filed as Exhibits.

 attached.
