NOTE C.  DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

In April, 1994 the Company completed the sale of its industrial filtration
segment effective as of March 31, 1994 for a cash sales price of $15,875,000.
For 1994 the gain on disposal of the segment of $3,835,000 after income tax
credits, or $1.02 per share ($2,999,000 pretax), includes other income and costs
incurred in connection with the disposal. The second quarter gain on disposal of
the segment of $2,335,000 after income taxes or 62 cents per share when combined
with the $1,500,000 or 40 cents per share tax credit reported in the first
quarter reflects the gain reported for the six-month period. For 1994 net sales
were $4,788,000 and income from operations was $120,000 net of applicable taxes
of $100,000.

          MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

BALANCE SHEET

The Company maintained its strong financial condition and liquidity.  Cash and
short-term investments represented 28% of total assets at June 30, 1995 compared
to 30% at December 31, 1994.  The ratio of current assets to current liabilities
was 3.4 at June 30, 1995 and December 31, 1994.

INCOME STATEMENT

Comparison Between Three-Month and Six-Month Periods Ended June 30, 1995 and
1994

Net sales increased 25% between the second quarters and 24% between the six
months of each year. Bonded fibers segment and plastic products segment sales
increased for the quarter and six-month periods.  The strong sales growth of the
first half could slow somewhat as several locations experienced some softening
of orders in the second quarter.

Investment income increased 20% between the second quarters and 41% between the
six months of each year primarily as a result of improved yields.

Costs and expenses increased 24% between the second quarters and 23% between the
six months of each year which was in line with the sales increase.  Cost of
products sold increased at a somewhat higher rate than sales, while selling,
research, administrative and general expenses increased at a lesser rate.

The bonded fibers segment operating earnings increased substantially from the
sales growth and because the 1994 second quarter earnings were reduced by a
non-recurring charge of approximately $900,000. The plastic products segment
recorded significantly increased

                                      -6-

operating results.  Overall improvement by the five established plastic
extrusion companies was aided by the mid-1994 acquisition of the Tri-Lite
Plastics companies.  The extrusion operations' earnings more than offset poor
performance by the Canadian flexible packaging company resulting from production
inefficiencies caused in part by high preparation costs for increased business
with a major customer. The combination of these factors resulted in 40%
increases in pretax income between the second quarters and six months of each
year.

Income taxes increased about 40% between the second quarters and six months of
each year. Therefore, income from continuing operations and related earnings per
share also increased by about 40% between each period.

In 1994 reported income of the discontinued industrial filtration segment was
$2,300,000 or 62 cents per share for the second quarter related to the sale and
approximately $4,000,000 or $1.05 per share for the six months which included
modest earnings prior to the sale.  See Note C for additional information.
