Note 1: Oil and Gas Properties
     
Texas  Vanguard Oil Company (the Company)  follows the  "successful  efforts" 
method  of  accounting for oil and gas exploration and production operations.
Accordingly, costs incurred in the acquisition and  exploratory  drilling  of
oil and gas  properties are initially  capitalized  and  either  subsequently 
expensed  if  the  properties are  determined not to have proved reserves, or
reclassified  as  a  proven  property  if  proved  reserves  are  discovered.
Costs of drilling development wells are capitalized. Geological, geophysical,
carrying and production costs are charged to expense as incurred.
     
Costs related to acquiring unproved lease and royalty acreage are periodically
assessed  for  possible  impairment  of value.  If  the  assessment  indicates
impairment, the costs are charged to expense.
     
Depreciation,  depletion  and  amortization  of proved oil and gas  property
costs,  including  related equipment  and facilities, is  provided using the
units-of-production method.
     
Note 2: Income Taxes
     
The  Company  uses  the "asset and liability method" of income tax accounting
which bases the amount  of  current and  future  taxes  payable on the events 
recognized in the financial statements and on tax laws existing at the balance
sheet date.  The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in 
tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes enactment date.

There is no federal income tax expense for the three months ended March 31,
1997, due to the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards. 

In addition,  the Company  has approximately  $433,000 of unused net operating 
loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes at March 31, 1997.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations
          and Financial Condition.
     
The following information is provided in compliance with SEC guidelines to
explain financial information shown in the Condensed Financial Statements. 
     
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
     
Operating  revenues  increased by $150,476 (51%) for the three-month period
ended  March  31, 1997 from the comparable prior-year period due to a com-
bination of factors including higher oil prices in 1997 as compared to 1996,
an increase in the number of properties owned and operated  by the Company,
as  well as  an  increase in  the amount  of gas produced and sold which is
attributable to new equipment installed by the Company to enhance production
capabilities.
     
The  $32,063 (30%) increase in production cost for  the three-month  period
ended March 31,  1997  as compared  to  1996 is  primarily  attributable to
the installation of new equipment as  described above  which  maximizes gas 
production capabilities.  General  and  administrative  expenses  increased
$5,832  (10%)  for  the three-month  period ended  March 31, 1997  from the
comparable prior year period primarily as a result of an $2,500 increase in
management fees paid in 1997 as compared to 1996 as well as a $2,500 increase
in accounting costs.  Interest  expense increased approximately $11,237 for
the three-month period ended March  31, 1997 from the comparable prior-year
period due to higher average outstanding balances. Depreciation, depletion,
and  amortization increased by $19,468 (114%) for  the  three-month  period 
ended March 31, 1997, from the comparable prior-year period due to increased
production and shortened reservoir lives.
     
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
     
Since  December  31, 1997,  the deficit  in working  capital has increased by
approximately $66,524 to a total of $233,804. The primary cause of the deficit
is  short  term  notes payable  of $889,393   which  are  financing  long term
assets. The Company does not anticipate any problems with the continued renewal
of its  bank  debt. Cash flow from operations remains positive at $116,757 for
the three months ended March 31, 1997. Notes payable decreased by $184,936 and 
long-term debt decreased by $72,055 for the first quarter of 1997.
     
The worldwide crude oil prices continue to fluctuate in 1997. The  Company
cannot predict how prices will  vary during the remainder of 1997 and what
effect they will ultimately have on the Company,  but management  believes
that  the Company will be able to generate sufficient cash from operations
to service its bank debt and provide for maintaining current production of
its oil and gas properties.
