Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
         Condition and Results of Operations

     Management's discussion and analysis of financial information is 
presented to aid the reader in understanding and evaluating the 
financial condition and results of operations of Jefferson Bankshares, 
Inc.  The analysis focuses on the Consolidated Financial Statements and 
their accompanying notes.  Highlighted in the discussion are material 
changes from prior reporting periods and any identifiable trends 
affecting the Corporation.


Financial Condition

     Total assets on March 31, 1997 were $2.149 billion compared with 
$2.050 billion one year earlier.  Average total assets in the first 
quarter of 1997 were $2.133 billion compared with the first quarter 1996 
average of $2.022 billion.  

     Loans, net of unearned income increased 13 percent on March 31, 
1997 to $1.402 billion from the year earlier total of $1.237 billion.  
The March 31, 1997 total also represented a $36 million increase over 
the year-end 1996 total of $1.366 billion. Loan categories that provided 
growth in the first quarter of 1997 were the same categories responsible 
for loan growth during 1996. Indirect instalment loans continued to lead 
the portfolio's growth while commercial loans and mortgage loans also 
grew strongly.  Average loans, net of unearned income, increased 13 
percent in the first quarter of 1997 to $1.380 million from $1.225 
million in the first quarter of 1996.

     Investment securities represent the second largest component of 
earning assets.  Investment securities decreased 10 percent to $573 
million on March 31, 1997 from $640 million one year earlier.  At year-
end 1996, investment securities totaled $609 million.  In the first 
quarter, total investment securities averaged $591 million in 1997, or 7 
percent below the first quarter 1996 average of $632 million.

     On March 31, 1997, there were no federal funds sold and money 
market investments compared with $10 million one year earlier.  At year-
end 1996, the Corporation had no short-term money market investments.  
In the first quarter of 1997, these investments averaged $5 million 
compared with a first quarter 1996 average of $12 million.

     Total deposits on March 31, 1997 were $1.887 billion, or 6 percent 
above the year earlier total of $1.788 billion.  At year-end 1996, 
deposits totaled $1.891 billion.  Non interest-bearing deposits 
increased 7 percent to $307 million from $287 million one year ago, and 
interest-bearing deposits increased 5 percent to $1.580 billion at 
quarter-end 1997 from the year earlier total of $1.501 billion. Average 
total deposits in the first quarter were $1.862 billion in 1997 and 
$1.761 billion in 1996.

     Short-term borrowings totaled $35 million on March 31, 1997 
compared with $15 million one year earlier and $50 million at year-end 
1996.  In the first quarter, short-term borrowings averaged $50 million 
in 1997 and $18 million in 1996.

Results of Operations

     Net income in the first quarter of 1997 increased 6 percent to 
$6.9 million from $6.5 million in the first quarter of 1996.  Net income 
per share in the first quarter increased 16 percent to $.50 in 1997 from 
$.43 in 1996.  The stronger increase in net income per share resulted 
from a reduction of shares outstanding through a tender offer concluded 
in the fourth quarter of 1996.

     Higher net income in the 1997 quarter raised profitability ratios.  
The return on average assets in the first quarter increased to 1.30 
percent in 1997 compared with 1.29 percent in 1996.  The return on 
average shareholders' equity improved in the first quarter to 13.39 
percent in 1997 from 11.40 percent in 1996. The higher return on equity 
was boosted by the reduction in capital used to repurchase shares in the 
tender offer.

     The increase in first quarter 1997 net income was attributable 
principally to a 5 percent increase in net interest income.  Total 
interest income in the first quarter of 1997 increased 6 percent to 
$39.5 million from $37.3 million in the first quarter of 1996.  The 
higher interest income reflected a 6 percent increase in average earning 
assets.

     Interest expense in the first quarter of 1997 rose 7 percent to 
$15.5 million from $14.5 million in the first quarter of 1996.  The 
increase was attributable principally to an increase in interest-bearing 
liabilities.

     In spite of the larger percentage increase in interest expense as 
compared with interest income, net interest income increased 5 percent 
in the first quarter of 1997 to $24.0 million from $22.8 million in the 
first quarter of 1996.  The net interest margin was 4.93 percent in the 
first quarter of 1997 compared with 4.95 percent in the 1996 quarter.  
At 4.93 percent, however, the net interest margin remained strong while 
below the 4.98 percent net interest margin registered in the fourth 
quarter of 1996.

     In recognition of the increase in loans and an increase in net 
loan losses, the provision for loan losses in the first quarter was 
increased to $990 thousand in 1997 from $780 thousand in 1996.  On March 
31, 1997, the allowance for loan losses was $15.1 million, or 1.08 
percent of loans, net of unearned income.  One year earlier, the 
allowance was $13.8 million or 1.11 percent of loans, net of unearned 
income.  In the first quarter of 1997, net loan losses amounted to $559 
thousand compared with $434 thousand in the 1996 quarter.

     Non-performing assets decreased 32 percent to $6.351 million on 
March 31, 1997 from $9.381 million one year ago.  The March 31, 1997 
total included non-accrual loans of $4.264 million, restructured loans 
of $245 thousand, and foreclosed properties of $1.842 million.  The 
March 31, 1996 total included non-accrual loans of $5.898 million, 
restructured loans of $250 thousand, and foreclosed properties of $3.233 
million.  Loans 90 days or more past due at quarter-end in 1997 and 1996 
were $2.588 million and $2.413 million, respectively.

     Non-interest income in the first quarter of 1997 of $4.9 million 
was 4 percent above the year earlier amount of $4.7 million.  Trust 
income increased 12 percent in the quarter to $1.2 million.  Deposit 
account fees were 1 percent lower in the first quarter of 1997 at $2.4 
million. Mortgage loan sales decreased to $145 thousand from $160 
thousand for the quarters ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively.  
Other income recorded an 11 percent increase from $1 million for the 
first quarter of 1996 to $1.2 million for the first quarter of 1997.  
Fees from credit cards and ATM's contributed to the increase in other 
income.

     Non-interest expense in the first quarter of 1997 of $17.3 
million, was 3 percent greater than the amount in the same quarter of 
1996. Personnel expense increased 5 percent, equipment expense was 
nearly level, occupancy expense decreased 2 percent, and other expense 
increased 2 percent.

LIQUIDITY

     A financial institution's liquidity requirements are measured by 
its need to meet deposit withdrawals, fund loans, maintain reserve 
requirements, and operate the organization.  To meet its liquidity 
needs, the Corporation maintains cash reserves and has an adequate flow 
of funds from maturing loans, investment securities, and short-term 
investments.  In addition the Corporation's bank affiliate has the 
ability to borrow from the Federal Reserve and the Federal Home Loan 
Bank.  The Corporation considers its sources of liquidity to be ample to 
meet its estimated needs.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

     On March 31, 1997, shareholders' equity totaled $207 million, or 
10 percent of total assets.  Included in shareholders' equity on March 
31, 1996 were unrealized gains, net of the deferred tax effect, of $419 
thousand on securities available for sale.  In the first quarter of 
1997, shareholders' equity averaged $208 million, or 9 percent below the 
first quarter 1996 average of $229 million.  On March 31, 1997, the book 
value of a share of common stock was $14.83, or 1.4 percent below the 
year earlier $15.04.  The decrease in average equity and book value 
resulted from the repurchase of shares in the tender offer.
