             NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (UNAUDITED)
                                (000's omitted)

                                 May 31, 1997
                                 ------------

1.   In the opinion of management, the foregoing unaudited condensed
     consolidated financial statements contain all normal recurring adjustments
     necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of May
     31, 1997.

2.   The results for the three month periods ended May 31, 1997 and 1996, are
     not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the fiscal
     year.

3.   For the three months ended May 31, 1997, primary earnings per common share
     are calculated by dividing net earnings applicable to common stock by the
     weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding and common
     stock equivalents, which consist of stock options and stock warrants.  For
     the three month period ended May 31, 1996, earnings per share do not
     include common stock equivalents as they are antidilutive.  Fully diluted
     earnings per common share are not presented because they are not materially
     dilutive.

4.   The Company utilizes an asset and liability approach in accounting for
     income taxes that requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and
     liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have
     been recognized in the Company's financial statements or tax returns.  In
     estimating future tax consequences, consideration is given to all expected
     future events other than enactments of changes in the tax law or rates.

     The valuation allowance of $806 at February 28, 1997, which represented 30%
     of the gross deferred tax assets on that date, was $806, or 33% on May 31,
     1997. The tax provision for the three months ended May 31, 1997 includes no
     current or deferred tax benefit.

5.   On March 1, 1997, the Company acquired certain assets of the Boston,
     Massachusetts Franchise for $75 cash and forgiveness of amounts owed the
     Company ($380).  This acquisition was accounted for under the purchase
     method of accounting and accordingly, the purchase price was allocated to
     the assets acquired based upon the estimated fair values at the date of
     acquisition.  The purchase price associated with the acquisition was
     recorded as an asset held for sale as it is the Company's intent to resell
     this Franchise.  Operating results of this business acquisition have been
     included in the Company's consolidated results of operations from March 1,
     1997.
 
6.   In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
     of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 (FAS 128) - Earnings per Share
     (EPS).  The statement is effective for financial statements issued for
     periods ending after December 15, 1997.  FAS 128 supersedes Accounting
     Principles Board Opinion No. 15 and replaces primary and fully diluted EPS
     with basic and diluted EPS.  Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income
     available to common shareholders by the weighted average common shares
     outstanding.  Diluted EPS includes all dilutive potential common shares.

     The Company does not expect the new standard to have a material impact on
     its financial position and results of operations for fiscal 1998.

     The following illustrate the Company's pro forma earnings per share as if
     FAS 128 had been used in the three months ended May 31, 1997 and 1996.

     include potential common shares because they are antidilutive.

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

Results of Operations
- ---------------------
 
Total revenues increased $235,000, or 5%, for the first quarter ended May 31,
1997, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior fiscal year.  The
increase in revenue is attributable primarily to an increase in paper sales of
($281,000 or 11%).

Selling and administrative expenses represented 32% of gross revenues for the
first quarter ended May 31, 1997, and 52% for the corresponding period in
fiscal 1997.  The primary causes of the decrease in selling and administrative
expenses as a percentage of revenues were (i) the decreased operating expenses
associated with the Company Franchises (a $249,000 or 29% decrease over the
prior year's level); (ii) decrease in Corporate salaries and benefits (a
$245,000 or 32% decrease over the prior year; (iii) decreased provision for
doubtful accounts (a $125,000 or 74% decrease over the prior year); and (iv)
decreased professional fees (a $44,000 or 54% decrease over the prior year).

The decreased expenses from Company Franchises resulted from the Company's 100%
involvement in the operation of two Company Franchises and a 70% involvement in
a third Company Franchise during the first quarter of fiscal 1998 while four
Company Franchises and a 70% involvement in a fifth Company Franchise were
operated by the Company during the first quarter of fiscal 1997.  The Company
Franchises yielded a loss of $9,000 for the first quarter ended May 31, 1997
versus a loss of $232,000 during the first quarter of fiscal 1996.

The Company recorded net income of $392,000 for the three months ended May 31,
1997, as compared to a net loss of $91,000 for the corresponding period in
fiscal 1997.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

During the first quarter of fiscal 1998, the Company utilized working capital to
make debt payments totaling $11,000.

During the quarter ended May 31, 1997, the Company made capital expenditures of
approximately $50,000, most of which were dedicated to leasehold improvements
and furniture and fixtures, and the Company advanced approximately $115,000 in
the purchase and support of the Boston Company Franchise.  In addition, the
purchase of the Boston Franchise increased assets held for sale approximately
$342,000, and decreased long term notes and accounts receivable, current notes
and accounts receivable, and deferred revenue by $272,000, $123,000, and
$104,000, respectively.

The Company plans to continue to improve its working capital and cash positions
during fiscal 1998 by continuing its efforts to (i) increase cash collections;
and (ii) develop new product lines while containing capital expenditures and
reducing inventory levels.
 
The Company believes that current reserves and internally generated funds will
be sufficient to satisfy the Company's working capital and capital expenditure
requirements for the foreseeable future; however, there can be no assurance that
external financing will not be needed or that, if needed, it will be available
on commercially reasonable terms.
