     interim financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with
     the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the
     Company's latest annual report on Form 10-K.  In the opinion of management,
     the consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (none of
     which were other than normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair
     statement of the results for the interim periods.

2.   As discussed in Note 6 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the
     Company's 1994 Annual Report, the Company retained the exposure, if any,
     related to incidents involving Imeco products occurring prior to June 30,
     1993.  There have been no new incidents nor significant developments in the
     claim currently in litigation.

3.   In February 1995, the Company amended its credit agreement with two banks
     to provide an additional $500,000 of debt.  Unrelated to this amendment,
     interest rates on both the term debt and the short-term line of credit were
     reduced to prime during the first quarter of 1995 since certain 1994
     profitability goals, as set forth in the credit agreement, were met.

4.   The credit for income taxes is based upon the estimated effective tax rate
     for the year.

5.   Operating results for the first three months of 1995 are not necessarily
     indicative of performance for the entire year.  Historically, sales of
     construction materials are higher in the second and third quarters.  Sales
     of heating and air-conditioning products have not shown strong seasonality
     in recent years although product mix yields higher gross profit in the
     fourth quarter.  (See Note 11 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
     in the Company's 1994 Annual Report.)

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
          RESULTS OF OPERATION

     FINANCIAL CONDITION (SEE PAGES 2 AND 4)

     Operations for the first three months of 1995 used $5,260,000 in cash
     compared to $2,937,000 in 1994.  As noted in the Financial Condition,
     Liquidity and Capital Resources discussion in the 1994 Annual Report, the
     increases in accounts payable and accruals at December 31, 1994 were due to
     the early purchase of raw materials for 1995 production and timing of
     payments, respectively.  Further, the reduction in these amounts occurred,
     as expected, during the first quarter of 1995 and accounted for
     approximately $3,700,000 of the cash used in operations.  In March 1995,
     the Company settled the suit brought by ConAgra and its insurance carrier.
     The amount of the settlement had been fully reserved as of December 31,
     1994 and thus had no effect on the operations of the quarter ended April 1,
     1995.  The settlement was paid in April 1995 from available funds and did
     not have a material effect on the financial condition of the Company.

     The Company estimates that its short-term line of credit (of which
     $3,200,000 was outstanding at April 1, 1995) will be adequate to meet its
     cash requirements for the foreseeable future.  Historically, the Company's
     borrowings against the short-term line have peaked during the second
     quarter and decline over the remainder of the year.

     OPERATIONS - COMPARISON OF QUARTER ENDED APRIL 1, 1995 TO QUARTER ENDED
     APRIL 2, 1994
     (SEE PAGE 3)

     Consolidated net sales increased $931,000 (6.1%).  The construction
     materials segment improved slightly, up $122,000 (1.9%), as the residential
     building market began to settle.  The increase in the heating and air-
     conditioning segment, $802,000 (8.9%) was attributed to an increased
     customer base at Phoenix Manufacturing as well as increased orders from
     several existing accounts.

     Consolidated cost of sales (exclusive of depreciation and depletion) as a
     percentage of sales increased slightly from 81.1% to 81.7%.  Both segments
     were affected by increased raw material costs which, due to competitive
     pressures, the Company was unable to fully pass through to customers.

     Selling and administrative expenses increased by $169,000 (5.8%)
     attributable to the increased sales levels.

     Interest expense remained fairly constant as the effect of higher average
     interest rates was offset by lower overall borrowing levels.

     Higher copper prices and improved recoveries lead to the Company's current
     year income from its equity investment in a mining partnership compared to
     last year's loss.

     Historically, the Company has experienced operating losses during the first
     quarter.  This trend is expected to continue as sales of construction
     materials are generally higher in the second and third quarters while sales
     of heating and air-conditioning products, though not showing strong
     seasonality, experience product mix changes that yield higher gross profits
     in the fourth quarter.
