                         ELECTION OF  DIRECTORS

     Under Massachusetts law, the Board of  Directors of  the Company is
classified into three classes, as nearly equal in number as possible,
with the term of  office of  one class expiring each year.  The enclosed
proxy will be voted to elect the person named below, unless otherwise
instructed, as the Class I director for a term of  three years expiring
at the 2000 Annual Meeting of  Stockholders or until his respective
successor is elected and qualified.  If the nominee should become
unavailable, proxies will be voted for a substitute nominee designated
by management or to fix the number of  directors at a lesser number,
unless instructions are given to the contrary.  The current Board has no
reason to expect that the nominee will become unavailable to serve.

                    COMPENSATION AND RELATED MATTERS
                                    
Compensation of  Directors
     Directors who are not employees of  the Company receive an annual
fee of  $20,000 for serving as directors.  No additional compensation
is paid to those directors who serve on a committee of  the Board of
Directors.
     The Company has a Deferred Compensation Plan under which non-
employee directors may elect to defer their directors fees.  Amounts
deferred for each participant are credited to a separate account, and
interest at the lowest rate at which the Company borrowed money during
each quarter or, if there was no such borrowing, at the prime rate, is
credited to such account quarterly.  The balance in a participant's
account is payable in a lump sum or in installments when the participant
ceases to be a director.  Dr. Aguilar deferred his 1996 director fees.
Interest accrued for 1996 on such fees was $5,954.
     The 1995 Stock Option Plan for Non-Employee Directors provides for
an annual grant to each director who is not an employee of  the Company
of an option to purchase 1,000 shares of  Common Stock and an initial
grant of 5,000 shares, each at an exercise price equal to fair market
value on the date of  grant.  All options granted under this plan become
exercisable in three equal installments on each of  the first, second
and third anniversaries of  the date of  grant.

Option Grants in 1996

     The table below shows information regarding grants of  stock
options made to the named executives during fiscal 1996.  The amounts

Report of  the Compensation Committee of  the Board of  Directors

     The Compensation Committee of  the Board of  Directors administers
the Company's executive compensation program.  The committee is composed
of  Dr. Aguilar and General Mullins, both of  whom are independent non-
employee directors and who have no "interlocking" relationships as
defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission.  The Committee meets
formally and consults informally during the year.  The Committee is
responsible for recommending to the Board of  Directors the compensation
of  all the officers of  the Company and for reviewing the design and
effectiveness of  executive compensation policies.  All awards of stock
options and restricted stock to the Company's employees are made by the
Committee.

Compensation Philosophy and Objectives

     The Company's executive compensation program consists of  base
salary, potential cash bonus incentives and long-term incentives in the
form of  stock options.  Its objectives are four-fold:

  *    Provide base compensation that enables the Company to attract and
  retain key executives.
  
  *    Provide executive officers with total direct remuneration which is
     competitive with similarly sized companies for comparable performance.
  
  *    Reward executives for outstanding achievements which clearly
  benefit the Company.
  
  *    Align the interest of  the Company's executives with the long-term
  interests of shareholders.

     The executive compensation program provides an overall level of
compensation opportunity which the Compensation Committee believes is
competitive with other companies of comparable size and complexity.
Actual compensation will vary with annual and long-term Company
performance, as well as individual performance and longevity, and hence
may be greater or less than actual compensation at other companies.  The
Committee uses its discretion to establish executive compensation at
levels which in its judgment are warranted by external or internal
factors as well as an executive's individual circumstances.  In arriving
at what it considers appropriate levels and components of compensation,
the Compensation Committee utilizes industry compensation data provided
by nationally recognized compensation information sources.

Executive Compensation Program Components

   The particular elements of  the compensation program are discussed
more fully below:
   
   Base Salary.  The Committee maintains base salary levels for
executives that, based on its analysis of  pertinent compensation data,
are competitive with other companies of  comparable size and complexity.
   
     Base salaries of  executives are determined by the potential impact
of  the individual on the Company and its performance, salaries paid by
other companies for comparable positions, individual performance against
goals and the overall performance of  the Company.
   
   Cash Bonuses.  The Compensation Committee may approve discretionary
cash bonuses as a means of  rewarding executives (and other employees)
for significant Company and individual performance.  These cash awards
are not based on a specific formula; rather, they are intended to be
compensation in recognition of  outstanding accomplishments that result
in clearly quantitative or qualitative benefit to the Company.
   
   Long-Term Incentives.  Long-term incentives are provided in the form
of  stock options.  The Committee and the Board of  Directors believe
that management's ownership of  a significant equity interest in the
Company aligns the long-term interests of  management and shareholders
and is an important incentive and contributing factor toward building
shareholder value.  Stock options, therefore, are granted at the market
value of  the common stock on date of  grant.  The value received by the
executive from a stock option granted depends on increases in the market
price of  the Company's common stock during the term of  the option.
Consequently, the value of the compensation is proportionate to
increases in shareholder value.  Grants of  stock options are made by
the Compensation Committee in its discretion based both upon the
executive's actual contribution to the Company's current performance and
his expected contribution toward meeting the Company's long-term
financial/strategic goals.

CEO Compensation

   Mr. Rand's base salary remained unchanged in 1996.  In determining
Mr. Rand's compensation for 1996, the Committee took into consideration
the above described compensation philosophy, the Company's financial
performance, and progress toward achieving strategic goals of growth and
broadening of the Company's business.  The Committee also considered
information with respect to chief executive compensation for companies
of comparable size in similar industries.

Severance Agreements

     The Company has severance agreements with Messrs. Anderegg and
Rand.  Under these agreements, the Company agrees to pay severance
benefits to each such executive if his employment is terminated for any
reason other than for cause (as defined in the agreements) or if the
executive terminates his employment as a result of  a specified
justification, within two years following a change of  control of  the
Company.  A change in control includes the acquisition of 20% or more of
the combined voting power of  the Company's then-outstanding securities,
other changes in control of  a kind required to be reported by certain
regulatory authorities, and certain changes in membership of  the Board
of  Directors.  Under the agreements, the executive is entitled to a
severance payment equal to 299% of  his average annual base salary and
bonus for the two calendar years immediately prior to a change in
control.  In addition, the executive is entitled to certain other
benefits, including the acceleration of  the exercisability of
outstanding stock options, continued participation for up to three years
in life, accident, medical, health and other similar plans and programs
in which the executive participated prior to the change in control, and
the payment by the Company of  any legal fees and expenses incurred as a
result of such termination of  employment.  At the option of  the
executive, the payments or benefits payable under the agreement may be
decreased to the extent necessary to avoid any excise taxes payable as a
result of  the severance benefits.  Such severance payments would not be
reduced for compensation received by the executive from any new
employment.  Under these agreements, based on the current compensation
as of  March 7, 1997, change of  control cash severance payments would
be approximately $583,050 and $702,650 for Messrs. Anderegg and Rand,
respectively.

Indemnification Agreements

     The Company has indemnification agreements with each of its
directors.  Each indemnification agreement entitles the director to be
indemnified by the Company for any liabilities and expenses incurred in
connection with the defense or disposition of  any legal claim or action
brought or threatened against him or her by reason of  (i) being or
having been a director of  the Company or (ii) serving or having served
at the Company's request as a director of  another organization or in
any capacity with respect to an employee benefit plan.  The
indemnification agreement also requires the Company to advance payment
for any expenses incurred by a director in connection with such an
action.  However, a director will not receive indemnification under the
agreement if he or she is found not to have acted in good faith in the
reasonable belief that his or her actions were in the best interest of
the Company.  The indemnification provided under the indemnification
agreement is required whether or not an action is brought asserting that
the director seeking indemnification acted unlawfully or acted to create
an improper personal benefit, unless the director is actually found not
to have acted in good faith in the reasonable belief that his or her
actions were in the best interests of  the Company.  The rights under
the indemnification agreement are in addition to any rights of
indemnification the director may have under the Company's Articles of
Incorporation or By-laws or otherwise and are not subject to any
limitations which may be contained in the Company's Articles of
Incorporation or By-laws.


Pension Plan

     The following table sets forth the annual benefits payable as a
life annuity which would be payable under the Company's noncontributory
defined benefit Pension Plan at normal retirement at age 65 to
participants having the years of  service and average annual earnings as
indicated in the table, assuming all such participants attained age 65
in 1996:

                 ESTIMATED ANNUAL BENEFIT FOR YEAR 1996

 Average                Estimated Annual Benefit

$100,000      $17,309     $23,078     $28,848      $34,617
$125,000      $22,308     $29,745     $37,181      $44,617

     Frozen Benefit - Accrued through 12/31/93*

$175,000      $32,308     $43,078     $53,847      $64,616
$200,000      $37,308     $49,744     $62,180      $74,616
$225,000      $42,308     $56,411     $70,513      $84,616
$235,840      $44,476     $59,301     $74,126      $88,952

     *Maximum Plan Compensation for 1996 is $150,000.

     Employees are entitled to the greater of: benefit accrued through
12/31/93 (calculated on prior years wage caps) or benefit based on the
new $150,000 wage cap.

     As of  March 7, 1997, Messrs. Anderegg, Rand, Wilkinson and Potter
had 40, 37, 15 and 3 years of  service, respectively, for purposes of
the Pension Plan.

     All employees of the Company, who complete a year of  service,
including the individuals named in the compensation table above, are eligible
to earn benefits under the Pension Plan.  Upon retirement the benefits under
the Pension Plan vary depending upon the participant's age at retirement,
years of service with the Company and average annual earnings for the five
consecutive highest years of  service in the ten years prior to
termination.  The amount of  annual retirement benefits is determined by
a formula which applies years of  service to a basic defined benefit,
which, in the case of  a participant with at least 30 years of  service,
is .683% of  the average of  the 5 highest consecutive years of
compensation in the last 10 years worked plus .65% of  such average
annual earnings which exceed Social Security Covered Compensation, but
not less than (a) $60 multiplied by his or her years of  service or (b)
the benefit which had accrued as of  December 31, 1987 under the
Company's prior retirement program.  Compensation reflects the amounts
shown under salary in the Summary Compensation Table.  The Pension Plan
limits the compensation taken into account for purposes of  determining
the benefit under the Pension Plan to the maximum permissible under the
Internal Revenue Code, which for 1996 was $150,000.  Social Security
Covered Compensation means the dollar amount which represents the
average of  the maximum wages subject to Social Security tax for each
year of  the participant's working career.  The benefits under the
Pension Plan are payable in various annuity forms and are subject to
maximum limits in certain circumstances.


            QUORUM, REQUIRED VOTES, AND METHOD OF  TABULATION
                                    
     Consistent with state law and under the Company's by-laws, a
majority of  the shares entitled to be cast on a particular matter,
present in person or represented by proxy, constitutes a quorum as to
such matter.  Votes cast by proxy or in person at the Annual Meeting
will be counted by persons appointed by the Company to act as election
inspectors for the meeting.

     The nominee for election as the Class I director at the Annual
Meeting who receives the greatest number of  votes properly cast for the
election of  director will be elected as a director.

     The election inspectors will count the total number of  votes cast
"for" election of the director for purposes of  determining whether
sufficient affirmative votes have been cast.  The election inspectors
will count shares represented by proxies that withhold authority to vote
for a nominee for election as a director or that reflect abstentions and
"broker non-votes" (i.e., shares held by brokers or nominees as to which
(i) instructions have not been received from the beneficial owners and
(ii) the broker or nominee does not have the discretionary authority to
vote on a particular matter) only as shares that are present and
entitled to vote on the matter for purposes of determining a quorum, but
neither abstentions nor broker non-votes have any effect on the outcome
on voting on the matter.
                                    
                              AUDIT MATTERS

     Upon the recommendation of  the Audit Committee, the Board of
Directors has selected Arthur Andersen LLP, certified public
accountants, as auditors for the Company for the fiscal year ending
December 31, 1997.  Arthur Andersen LLP has served as the Company's
independent auditors since 1957.  A representative of  Arthur Andersen
LLP is expected to be present at the Annual Meeting with the opportunity
to make a statement if he or she desires to do so and to respond to
appropriate questions.
