                                     PART I

Item 1.  Business

         Bryan Steam  Corporation  ("Bryan"  and,  together  with its direct and
indirect  wholly-owned  subsidiaries,  the  "Company")  has  only  one  industry
segment.  All of the revenue,  operating profit or loss, and identifiable assets
of the Company are  attributable  to that  industry  segment.  See the Financial
Statements filed under Item 7 in Part II of this Report.

         Bryan  manufactures and sells oil, gas and electrically  fired boilers,
commercial water heaters and swimming pool heaters.  Bryan also manufactures and
sells  a  limited  number  of  storage  tanks  and  other  equipment  for use in
connection with boilers.  Wendland  Manufacturing  Corp.,  Bryan's  wholly-owned
subsidiary  ("Wendland"),  began  manufacturing  storage tanks effective July 3,
1995 upon the  consummation of an asset purchase  transaction  pursuant to which
Wendland  purchased  substantially  all  of  the  operating  assets  of  a  tank
manufacturer  in San  Angelo,  Texas (the  "Wendland  Transaction").  The assets
purchased by Wendland in the Wendland  Transaction  totalled  approximately $1.1
million,  and the  Wendland  Transaction  was  funded  primarily  through a $1.0
million loan. On December 6, 1995,  Wendland also acquired  substantially all of
the assets of a discontinued heat exchanger business in Monticello,  Indiana for
$215,000.  Wendland  operated these assets and the heat exchanger  business as a
division  until March 15,  1996,  at which time  Wendland  organized  Monticello
Exchanger and  Manufacturing  Co.  ("MEMCO") as a  wholly-owned  subsidiary  and
transferred assets and liabilities  relating to the heat exchanger business with
a net value of approximately  $450,000 in exchange for all of MEMCO's issued and
outstanding  capital stock. MEMCO has operated the heat exchanger business since
March 15, 1996.

         Most boilers manufactured by Bryan are sold directly to contractors for
installation  in  new  apartment,   commercial,   industrial  and  institutional
buildings;  a limited number of boilers are sold for replacement purposes.  Most
tanks manufactured by Wendland are sold directly to contractors for installation
for new commercial and  industrial  applications.  A limited number of tanks are
sold for replacement  purposes.  Most heat exchangers  manufactured by MEMCO are
sold directly to the end-users for installation in new industrial  applications.
A limited number is also sold for replacement purposes.

         Sales of Bryan's boilers are made through  approximately 70 independent
manufacturers'  representatives located throughout the United States and Canada.
Bryan sold boilers to approximately  500 different  purchasers during its fiscal
year ended June 30, 1997. No single  customer  accounts for any material part of
Bryan's  sales.  Sales of  Wendland's  tanks are made through  approximately  45
independent manufacturer's representatives located throughout the United States.
Wendland sold tanks to approximately 400 different  purchasers during its fiscal
year ended June 30, 1997. No single  customer  accounts for any material part of
Wendland's  sales.   Sales  of  MEMCO's  heat  exchangers  are  made  through  6
independent  representatives.  MEMCO sold  products  to 8  customers  during its
fiscal year ended June 30, 1997.

         The dollar amount of Bryan's  backlog of orders  believed to be firm as
of the  close  of its  fiscal  year  ended  June  30,  1997,  was  approximately
$5,484,214. Bryan's backlog at the close of its preceding fiscal year ended June
30, 1996, was approximately $6,507,000. Wendland's backlog of orders believed to
be  firm  as of  the  close  of  its  fiscal  year  ended  June  30,  1997,  was
approximately $251,810.  MEMCO's backlog of orders believed to be firm as of the
close of its fiscal year ended June 30, 1997, was approximately $206,968.

         Bryan's  Canadian sales amounted to  approximately  $555,239 during its
fiscal year ended June 30, 1997. Canadian sales were approximately  $472,300 and
$676,496  for its fiscal years ended June 30, 1996 and 1995,  respectively.  Its
other  foreign  sales were not  material.  Foreign  sales by Wendland  and MEMCO
during the year ended June 30, 1997 were not material.

         The Company operates in a highly competitive industry.  Bryan is one of
the smaller boiler  manufacturers,  but holds a relatively  significant share of
its  market.  Wendland  holds a  relatively  insignificant  share of its market.
Because MEMCO  represents the start-up of a previously  discontinued  business,
MEMCO had not developed a core customer base as of June 30, 1997 and remains one
of the smallest manufacturers of heat exchangers in the industry.

                                        1

<PAGE>




         Bryan's boilers are  manufactured  from steel and copper tubing,  steel
plate,  sheet metal,  finished  components  (including  burners,  controls,  and
gauges) and insulation and refractory materials,  substantially all of which are
available from several sources.  Wendland's  tanks are manufactured  from carbon
steel and stainless steel, steel plate and insulation.  Substantially all of the
materials used to manufacture  tanks is available from several sources.  MEMCO's
heat  exchangers are  manufactured  from steel plate,  pipe and various types of
metal tubing, substantially all of which is available from several sources.

         The Company's expenditures for research and development of new products
and  improvement  of existing  products  during its fiscal  years ended June 30,
1997, and June 30, 1996, were approximately $141,923 and $92,063,  respectively,
all of which were  incurred  by Bryan.  Bryan  employs 4 persons on a  full-time
basis for such  activities.  Neither  Wendland  nor MEMCO  employ any  full-time
employees solely for research and development purposes.

         The  Company  has  no  patents,  trademarks,  licenses,  franchises  or
concessions that are material to its business.

         Bryan  employs  approximately  210 persons  full time.  Its  production
employees  are  represented  by Local 357 of the  International  Brotherhood  of
Boilermakers.  Wendland  employs  approximately 32 employees full time, and none
are represented by a union. MEMCO employs  approximately 18 employees full time,
and none are represented by a union.

         The Company,  to obtain sales in its industry,  ordinarily  must have a
competitive  price.  The  Company  believes  competition  in  the  industry  has
intensified  in recent  years.  In addition,  reputation  for  quality,  service
capabilities  and  local  sales  representation  are all  important  factors  in
securing sales.

Item 2.  Properties

         Bryan  operates a  manufacturing  plant located in Peru,  Indiana.  The
plant and the  27-acre  site upon  which it is located  are owned by Bryan.  The
plant  consists  of several  adjacent  structures  of brick,  masonry  and steel
construction varying in age, all of which are in satisfactory condition. Bryan's
plant contains an aggregate of  approximately  153,000 square feet on one level.
Bryan's executive and  administrative  offices are located in a separate masonry
building located on the same 27-acre site.

         Wendland operates its tank manufacturing plant on a 4.225 acre tract of
land in San Angelo,  Texas.  The Wendland  plant contains  approximately  55,000
square  feet on one level.  Wendland  is also  currently  leasing  certain  real
property located adjacent to the Wendland plant.

         MEMCO operates its manufacturing plant on a 3.884 acre tract of land in
Monticello,  Indiana. MEMCO's plant contains approximately 17,400 square feet on
one level.

<PAGE>

To Our Shareholders:


The enclosed  annual report shows the  financial  condition of our Company as of
June 30, 1997 and the results of operations  for the past three years.  The past
fiscal year came to a successful completion.

Overall sales as well as profits were up from the preceding year and reached the
highest  level in our Company's  history.  Sales were up  approximately  17% and
profits were up approximately 40%.

Our ongoing aggressive advertising and marketing campaign, along with our superb
representative  organization,  contributed primarily to this excellent increase.
We continue to concentrate  our efforts in these areas as well as to enhance our
assistance to the representative organization.

Our backlog  remains strong,  but is expected to decline  slightly in the second
quarter.  This anticipated  decline is primarily due to the cyclic nature of our
industry.  We feel  confident  that the  third  and  fourth  quarters  will show
increases as in past years.

Our  directors  have  declared a dividend of $2.00 per share,  a $0.50 per share
increase over that paid in 1996.  This dividend is payable on September 15, 1997
to shareholders of record August 29, 1997. Your check is enclosed. Attached is a
notice of the  Annual  Meeting  of  Shareholders  to be held on  October 2, 1997
together with a proxy and a proxy statement.

If you cannot be present at the shareholders'  meeting, we would appreciate your
signing and returning the proxy immediately.

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Results of Operations

         The Company's  consolidated net income for the year ended June 30, 1997
was $1,609,015, compared to $1,148,934 and $927,141 for the years ended June 30,
1996 and 1995, respectively.  The Company's earnings per share totaled $8.41 for
the year ended June 30,  1997,  compared  to $6.01 and $4.85 for the years ended
June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The increase in net income of $460,081, or
40%, was primarily  attributable  to Bryan  Boilers'  operations,  which had net
income of $1,614,268  for the year ended June 30, 1997.  Wendland also generated
net income of  approximately  $117,140 for the year ended June 30,  1997.  MEMCO
generated a loss of $121,905  through June 30, 1997.  Operating  profit  totaled
$2,346,494,  or 8.94% of sales,  in 1997  compared  to  $1,668,590,  or 7.42% of
sales, and $1,228,360, or 7.03% of sales, in 1996 and 1995, respectively. Please
note that the addition of the income and losses of the three  companies does not
necessarily add up to the Company's consolidated after-tax profit because of tax
considerations from the losses at MEMCO.

         The Company's  combined sales income of $26,232,883  for the year ended
June 30, 1997  represents  an increase  of  approximately  16.71% over the sales
income of  $22,476,628  for the year ended June 30, 1996.  The increase in sales
for 1997 as compared to 1996 is primarily  attributable to two factors:  (I) the
addition  of  approximately  $1,000,000  in sales  by  MEMCO  in 1997,  and (ii)
increased  sales by Bryan Boilers in 1997 of  approximately  $2,800,000 over its
sales in 1996.  The increase in sales by Bryan  Boilers was primarily due to the
acceptance  by the  industry  of Bryan's  large  water tube  boilers  and a very
aggressive  sales  campaign  by Bryan  Boilers  and its  sales  representatives.
Competition  in Bryan  Boilers'  small water tube  boiler  market  remains  very
intense.  However,  internal concerns of some competitors seem to have mitigated
this competitive situation somewhat.  During the year ended June 30, 1997, Bryan
Boilers found that it was not  necessary to give as large  discounts as often as
it had in the past.  Bryan Boilers had no price increase  during the fiscal year
1997.  However,  a price  increase of  approximately  3% was placed in effect on
September 1, 1997.

         Wendland  Manufacturing  Corporation  maintained  its price  structure,
which  increased  its cost of goods sold by an amount  reflecting  the increased
cost of material and labor.

         MEMCO,  still on the learning curve,  had no direct increase in pricing
during fiscal 1997.

         The  Company's  cost of goods sold for the year ended June 30, 1997 was
$20,212,160,  compared to $17,887,043  and  $13,913,906 for the years ended June
30,  1996  and  1995,  respectively.  The  Company's  cost  of  goods  sold as a
percentage of sales was 77.05% in 1997,  which decreased when compared to 79.58%
in 1996.  Management  believes  that the decrease in cost of goods sold reflects
management's efforts to control materials costs and to sustain labor efficiency,
efforts  which  management  will  continue in fiscal year 1998. As reported last
year,  Bryan Boilers  negotiated a new collective  bargaining  agreement in May,
1995,  which runs  through  May,  1998.  This  collective  bargaining  agreement
provides for an increase in wages for Bryan Boilers'  bargaining unit of 3.5% in
each of the years covered by the contract.

         Total  expenses  for the year ended June 30, 1997  totaled  $3,674,229,
compared to $2,920,995 for the year ended June 30, 1996.  Total expenses for the
year ended June 30, 1997 were approximately 14% of sales, as compared to 13% for
the year ended June 30, 1996.

         Total other income  totaled  $234,474 in 1997  compared to $173,960 and
$247,271 in 1996 and 1995,  respectively.  The  increase in other income in 1997
over 1996 resulted  primarily  from an increase in Interest and dividend  income
and an increase in Freight  income,  which was offset  somewhat by a decrease in
Other  income  and  expense.   Interest   and  dividend   income   increased  by
approximately  $55,000 over this same period in 1996, and is approximately equal
to 1995.

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
          OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)


Financial Condition

         The Company's total assets at June 30, 1997 were $17.2 million compared
to $16.2 million and $15.1 million at June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.  The
increase in total assets resulted  primarily from the  approximately  $1 million
increase in property,  plant and  equipment.  The majority of this $1 million is
attributable  to Bryan Boilers in the form of a building  addition  during 1997.
Total  current  liabilities  at June 30, 1997 were  approximately  $2.4 million,
which  compares  favorably to the $2.5 million and $1.6 million at June 30, 1996
and 1995,  respectively.  The  Company's  net  worth at June 30,  1997 was $14.4
million,  compared to $13.1 million and $12.2 million at June 30, 1996 and 1995,
respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         Total cash and cash  equivalents  and investments at June 30, 1997 were
$1,835,565,  compared to  $1,921,293  and  $4,121,350 at June 30, 1996 and 1995,
respectively.  This  minor  decrease  in the  Company's  liquid  assets  in 1997
resulted  primarily  from the increase in inventory  between 1997 and 1996,  the
retirement  of  short  and  long  term  debt,  and  the   construction   of  the
manufacturing  addition at Bryan Boilers.  The combined working capital ratio of
current assets to current  liabilities was 4.67:1 at June 30, 1997,  compared to
4.61:1 and 7.07:1 at June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.  Management estimates
that capital  expenditures  for fiscal 1998 will total  approximately  $600,000.
There is no major item included in this estimation.  Management anticipates that
internal  sources  of funds  will be  adequate  to  cover  the  planned  capital
expenditures.

General

         Management  considers  Bryan Boilers'  performance  for the last fiscal
year to be  excellent  considering  the  competitive  nature  of this  industry.
Management  considers  the  performance  of  Wendland  Manufacturing  to be very
satisfactory,  considering the regionality of its markets.  Management considers
the MEMCO  performance  to be  satisfactory.  We do believe  that MEMCO (still a
start-up  company)  will still  struggle in the year ahead,  but start to show a
profit during fiscal 1999.

         Although the Company may in the future consider possible  acquisitions,
it is not currently  pursuing any.  Management  intends to continue to emphasize
growth and  profitability  in the coming  year by  continuing  to  increase  the
progress we've made in quality, customer service and cost containment.

                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS


To:      The Board of Directors and Stockholders
         of Bryan Steam Corporation

     We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Bryan Steam
Corporation (a New Mexico Corporation) and subsidiary as of June 30, 1997, 1996,
and 1995, and the related consolidated  statements of income,  retained earnings
and cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements
are the responsibility of the Corporation's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

     We conducted  our audits in accordance  with  generally  accepted  auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the  accounting  principles  used and  significant  estimates  made by
management,  as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

     In our opinion,  the consolidated  financial  statements  referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of
Bryan Steam  Corporation and subsidiary as of June 30, 1997, 1996, and 1995, and
the results of their consolidated operations, consolidated retained earnings and
consolidated  cash flows for the years then ended,  in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.

     Our  audits  were made for the  purpose  of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The Selected Consolidated  Financial Data
is presented for the purposes of additional  analysis and is not a required part
of the basic financial  statements.  Such  information has been subjected to the
auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and,
in our opinion,  is fairly  stated in all  material  respects in relation to the
basic financial statements taken as a whole.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                  JUNE 30, 1997

1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Corporation  manufactures  boilers and boiler accessories at its Bryan Steam
Corporation  (Bryan Steam) plant in Peru,  Indiana.  Bryan Steam's  wholly-owned
subsidiary,   Wendland   Manufacturing   Corp.   (Wendland),   operates  a  tank
manufacturing   facility  in  San  Angelo,   Texas.   Wendland's  wholly-  owned
subsidiary,   Monticello   Exchanger   and   Manufacturing   Co.   (Monticello),
manufactures  heat  exchangers  at  its  plant  in  Monticello,   Indiana.   The
Corporation sells its products through independent sales representatives.  North
America is the principal market for the Corporation's products.

   Bryan Steam's sales were 83.87% of total consolidated sales, while Wendland's
and Monticello's sales were 10.59% and 5.54% of the total, respectively.


   1a. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

   For purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash equivalents include cash on
   hand, deposits in banks,  certificates of deposit, money funds and all highly
   liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less. The
   fair value of cash and cash  equivalents,  based on current market prices, is
   $368,879.

   1b. INVESTMENT SECURITIES

   Investment  securities  are  valued at cost,  which  approximates  the market
   value.  Based  on  current  market  prices,  the  fair  value  of  investment
   securities is $1,470,867. Current gross unrealized gains and (losses) totaled
   $24,491 and $(20,310), respectively.

   1c. PROPERTY, PLANT & EQUIPMENT

   Property,  plant and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation of buildings,
   equipment,  fixtures and vehicles is computed using the straight-line  method
   over estimated useful lives.

   Estimated useful lives are:
                                                                      Years
                                      -------------------------- ---------------
                                      Buildings & improvements          10 - 40
                                      Machinery & equipment                  10
                                      Furniture & fixtures               5 - 10
                                      Vehicles                           4 - 10

   Expenditures  for equipment  repair and maintenance and for  replacements and
   renewals of portions of structures  which are not  considered as  lengthening
   the life of the structures are expensed as incurred. Additions,  replacements
   and renewals of equipment are capitalized.

   When  property or  equipment is retired,  sold or otherwise  disposed of, the
   cost and related  accumulated  depreciation are removed from the accounts and
   gains and losses resulting from such transactions are reflected in income.


<PAGE>

   1d. RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT

   Research and  development  costs are charged to operations  when incurred and
   are included in operating  expenses.  The amounts charged for the years ended
   June  30,  1997,  1996,  and  1995  were  $101,290,  $92,063,  and  $119,233,
   respectively.

   1e. INVENTORY

   The  Corporation's  inventory  of raw  materials  is valued at lower of cost,
   using  the  FIFO  method,  or  market.   The  Corporation's   inventories  of
   work-in-process and finished goods are valued at cost per unit.

   1f. SUPPLEMENTAL INCOME INFORMATION

   The amounts of depreciation and maintenance are set forth in the statement of
   income.  There were no management or service  contract fees or royalties paid
   during the years ended June 30, 1997, 1996, and 1995.  Advertising  costs are
   expensed as incurred.


   1g. INCOME TAXES

   The Corporation  adopted Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards (SFAS)
   109-"Accounting  for Income Taxes",  July 1, 1993. This Statement  supersedes
   SFAS  96-"Accounting  for Income  Taxes".  Deferred  income taxes reflect the
   future  federal and state tax  consequences  of  differences  between the tax
   basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each
   year-end.

   1h. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

   The accompanying  consolidated  financial  statements include the accounts of
   the Corporation and of its wholly-owned subsidiary. Intercompany transactions
   and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

   1i. INDUSTRY SEGMENT

   During the year ended June 30, 1997, the Corporation  operated exclusively in
   one industry segment, the manufacture of boilers, tanks, and heat exchangers.

   1j. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

   Statement of Accounting  Standards No. 107  "Disclosures  about Fair Value of
   Financial  Instruments," requires disclosures of fair value information about
   financial  instruments,  whether  or  not  recognized  in  the  statement  of
   financial  condition.  In cases where quoted market prices are not available,
   fair values are based on estimates  using  present  value or other  valuation
   techniques.  Those techniques are  significantly  affected by the assumptions
   used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. In that
   regard,   the  derived  fair  value  estimates  cannot  be  substantiated  by
   comparison to independent  markets and, in many cases,  could not be realized
   in  immediate  settlement  of the  instruments.  Statement  No. 107  excludes
   certain  financial  instruments  and all  nonfinancial  instruments  from its
   disclosure requirements.  For most of its covered financial instruments,  the
   Corporation's  carrying  value  closely  approximates  the fair  value of the
   financial instruments to the Corporation.

   1k. USE OF ESTIMATES

   The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
   accounting  principles  requires management to make estimates and assumptions
   that affect certain  reported amounts and  disclosures.  Accordingly,  actual
   results could differ from the estimates.

2. INVENTORY

   Inventories  are  stated at the lower of cost or  market.  Cost  approximates
   market.  Such cost includes raw materials,  direct labor,  other direct costs
   and  production  overhead.  The  inventories  are  valued  on  the  first-in,
   first-out (FIFO) method.

   Inventories at June 30 are as follows:

   Finished goods and...       1997        1996         1995
                           ----------   ----------   -------
     work-in-process....   $1,165,334  $1,136,608 $   843,503
   Raw materials........    3,313,869   3,065,402   3,338,010
                            ---------   ---------   ---------
     TOTAL..............   $4,479,203  $4,202,010  $4,181,513
                            =========   =========   =========

3. INCOME TAXES
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

   As discussed in Note 1g, on July 1, 1993, the Corporation  adopted  Statement
   of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109-"Accounting for Income Taxes" (SFAS
   109).  SFAS  109  is an  asset  and  liability  approach  that  requires  the
   recognition of deferred tax assets and  liabilities  for the expected  future
   tax  consequences  of events that have been  recognized in the  Corporation's
   financial  statements or tax returns.  In estimating future tax consequences,
   SFAS 109 generally considers all expected future events other than enactments
   of changes in the tax law or rates.

   The Corporation and its subsidiary file separate income tax returns.

4. PENSION PLANS

   The  Corporation has  non-contributory  pension plans for  substantially  all
   employees  at its  Peru,  Indiana  facility.  The  initial  pension  plan was
   established  on or about July 1, 1966.  Plan assets consist of government and
   corporate bonds,  mutual funds,  guaranteed  investment  contracts,  and cash
   equivalent  investments.  Pension  benefits are based on taxable earnings and
   years of service.  The  Corporation's  policy is to fund at least the minimum
   amounts required by Federal law and regulation.

   Pension expense includes the following components:

                                  1997         1996         1995

4. PENSION PLANS (CONTINUED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Contributions  to a union  sponsored  defined  contribution  pension plan for
   years  ended June 30,  1997,  1996,  and 1995 were  $224,750,  $171,238,  and
   $131,323,  respectively. This plan covers all bargaining unit employees. This
   plan is not administered by the Corporation and  contributions are determined
   in accordance with provisions of a negotiated labor contract.

   The  Corporation  maintains a defined  contribution  money-purchase  plan for
   qualified  employees at its San Angelo,  Texas  facility.  The  Corporation's
   contribution   to  this  retirement  plan  is  determined  by  the  voluntary
   contributions  made  by  the  employees.  The  Corporation  matches  employee
   contributions  up to 3% of the  individual  employee's  earnings.  During the
   years ended June 30, 1997, and 1996,  the  Corporation  incurred  expenses of
   $20,230 and $16,652, respectively, for this retirement plan, all of which was

6. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

   The  Corporation is involved in litigation  arising from the normal course of
   business.  In the opinion of  management,  based on advice of legal  counsel,
   this  litigation  will not have any material  adverse effect on the financial
   position of the Corporation.


<PAGE>

7. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

   The  Corporation  paid  approximately  $613,253 in the fiscal year 1997,  and
   $553,956  in the  fiscal  year  ended  1996 to  cover  premiums  for  various
   property,  casualty,  and workers compensation insurance policies on which an
   insurance  agency  owned by G. N.  Summers,  a director  of the  Corporation,
   received  commissions.  Refunds  totalling  $4,210 in the year ended June 30,
   1997,  and  $26,067  in the year  ended June 30,  1996 were  received  by the
   Corporation as a result of periodic  insurer audits of the various  policies.
   There  are  no  other  reportable  related  party  transactions  between  the
   Corporation and its directors, executive officers, 5% beneficial shareholders
   or immediate family members of the foregoing persons.

   The  Corporation  paid freight  charges  totaling  $12,800 to Western Express
   through  January  31,  1997,  at  which  time  Wendland  Manufacturing  Corp.
   (Wendland) purchased all of the business assets of Western Express.  Prior to
   February 1, 1997, an officer of Wendland had an ownership interest in Western
   Express.

8. INTANGIBLES

   Amortization  is recorded  under the  "straight  line  method."  Goodwill and
   non-compete  agreements are being amortized over five years.  Expenditures to
   acquire a patent are capitalized and amortized over 17 years.

9. OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK AND CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK

   In 1990, the Corporation  adopted Statement of Financial  Accounting Standard
   No. 105 which requires disclosure of information about financial  instruments
   with off-balance  sheet risk and about  concentrations of credit risk for all
   financial instruments.

   OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK

   As of June 30, 1997, the  Corporation  had no significant  off-balance  sheet
   risk.

   CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK

   Financial   instruments   which   potentially   subject  the  Corporation  to
   significant  concentrations  of credit risk consist  principally of temporary
   cash investments and trade receivables.

   The Corporation  places its cash and temporary  investments with various high
   quality financial  institutions.  Cash accounts,  on deposit at a local bank,
   sometimes  exceeded the $100,000  limit  established  by the Federal  Deposit
   Insurance Corporation.  The Corporation maintains accounts with several stock
   brokerage  firms.  The  accounts  contain cash and various  securities.  Cash
   balances, which are generally not significant,  are insured up to $100,000 by
   the Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC).  Investment securities
   balances, as reported in the balance sheet, are insured by SIPC up to various
   limits, depending on the brokerage firm.

   Concentrations  of credit risk with respect to trade  receivables are limited
   due to the large number of customers  comprising the  Corporation's  customer
   base, and their dispersion across many different  industries and geographical
   areas. No individual customer balance exceeded 10% of the Corporation's trade
   receivables at the balance sheet date.

   In management's  opinion,  as of June 30, 1997, and 1996, the Corporation had
   no other significant concentrations of credit risk.

12.   CAPITAL LEASES

     The  Corporation  is a lessee of a phone system and  hydraulic  shear under

     minimum  lease  payments  or the fair  value of the  asset.  The assets are
     amortized over the estimated productive life of the asset.  Amortization of
     the assets under capital leases is included in depreciation expense for the
     current year.

19.  INVESTMENT SECURITIES

     On July 1, 1994, the Corporation adopted Statement of Financial  Accounting
     Standards No. 115 - "Accounting for Certain  Investments in Debt and Equity
     Securities" (SFAS 115). The Corporation's policy has been, historically, to
     classify  its  investment   securities  as  current  assets,   even  though
     management  has set a  precedent,  evidencing  its  intent,  by holding its
     investment  securities to maturity.  The Corporation  considers none of its
     investment securities to be, or to have been, available-for-sale or trading
     securities.  Investment  securities  held to  maturity,  which  do not have
     either a single  or  defined  maturity  date,  have been  allocated  to the
     "maturing within one year" maturity grouping.

     The following is a summary of investment  securities  classified as held to
maturity:
