for the future is consistent with mine.  I look forward to working with him 
to leverage our core competencies in workers' compensation and grow the group 
health and auto components of our business."

     Thomas and his family will relocate to Boston from Dallas to assume his new
responsibilities.

     "Our end of the year performance really sends a strong message about the 
value of our August merger," says Donald J. Larson, chairman and chief

     The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Accounting 
Standards No. 128 ("SFAS 128"), Earnings Per Share which supersedes 
Accounting Opinion Bulletin No. 15.  SFAS 128 establishes new accounting 
standards for the presentation of earnings per share whereby primary earnings 
per share is replaced with "Basic Earnings Per Share" and fully diluted 
earnings per share is now called  "Diluted Earnings Per Share."  Under SFAS 
128, Basic Earnings Per Share is computed by dividing reported earnings 
available to common stockholders by weighted average shares outstanding and 
Diluted Earnings Per Share computes the effect of all other outstanding 
common stock equivalents under the treasury stock method.  SFAS 128 is 
effective for quarterly and annual periods ending after December 15, 1997.
