                                  (Unaudited)

1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

    Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements - The condensed consolidated
    balance sheet as of September 30, 1997, the condensed consolidated
    statements of income for the three month periods ended September 30, 1997
    and 1996 and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the
    three month periods then ended have been prepared by the Company, without
    audit.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only
    normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial
    position, results of operations and the cash flows at September 30, 1997
    and for the periods then ended have been made.

    Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
    statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
    principles have been condensed or omitted.  It is suggested these condensed
    consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial
    statements and notes thereto included in the Company's June 30, 1997 annual
    report to shareholders.

3.  NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE

    In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
    Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128, "Earnings per
    Share".  This statement specifies the computation, presentation, and
    disclosure requirements for earnings per share (EPS).  This Statement is
    effective for financial statements issued for periods ending after December
    15, 1997, including interim periods.  This statement replaces the
    presentation of primary EPS with a presentation of basic EPS.  Basic EPS
    excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common
    stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding
    for the period.  If the Company had applied SFAS No. 128 to the computation
    of earnings per share in the three months ended September 30, 1997, the
    basic and diluted amounts would have been $.36 and $.35, respectively.

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
               OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                Three Months Ended September 30, 1997 and 1996
                                       
CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION

Working capital at September 30, 1997 was $58.9 million, up 7% from the $55.0 
million at June 30, 1997.  This includes cash and cash equivalents of $21.0 
million compared to $17.9 million at June 30, 1997 and accounts receivable of 
$71.8 million compared to $67.0 million at June 30, 1997.  Ratios of current 
assets to current liabilities and total assets to total liabilities were 
essentially the same at the end of both periods.

The Company's primary need for working capital is to support accounts 
receivable resulting from the growth in its business and to fund the time lag 
between payroll disbursement and receipt of fees billed to clients.  Over the 
past years, the Company has been able to support the growth in its business 
with internally generated funds.  The Company's outsourcing contracts are not 
expected to burden working capital.

On August 21, 1997 the Board of Directors increased the regular quarterly 
dividend to $.11 per share payable November 14, 1997 to shareholders of 
record as of October 31, 1997.  The previous dividend rate was $.09 per share.

On October 17, 1997 the Board of Directors declared a three-for-two stock 
split to be effected in the form of a 50 percent stock dividend to be 
distributed December 3, 1997 to shareholders of record on November 19, 1997.

The Company believes funds generated from its business and current cash 
balances are adequate to meet demands placed upon its resources by its 
operations and the payment of quarterly dividends.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Revenues provided directly for the three months ended September 30, 1997 were 
$104.7 million, an increase of 34.5% over the same period a year ago. 
Approximately 60% of this increase is the result of an increase in billed 
hours and 40% from increases in hourly rates.  Revenues provided through 
sub-suppliers for the three months ended September 30, 1997 were $30.5 
million, an increase of 50.8% over the same period a year ago.  This increase 
resulted almost exclusively from an increase in billable hours of service 
rendered to clients.  Prevailing competitive conditions in the industry have 
made it difficult for the Company to increase the hourly rates it charges for 
services, and there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to 
increase its hourly rates.

Personnel totalled 4,900 at September 30, 1997, compared to 4,050 at 
September 30, 1996, an increase of 21.0%.  Substantially all of the increase 
consists of billable technical staff.

Salaries, contracted services and direct charges, which represent primarily 
the Company's direct labor cost, were 77.4% of revenues for the three months 
ended September 30, 1997 compared to 77.2% for the same period a year ago.  
By comparison, these costs were 77.9% of revenues for the fourth quarter of 
fiscal 1997 and 77.4% of revenues for the fourth quarter of fiscal 1996. This 
category of expense also includes the fees for the contracted services of 
sub-suppliers who are necessary to support the Company with its major 
outsourcing contracts and these fees typically are higher per hour than the 
labor costs for its own employees.  The Company's efforts to control these 
costs involve controlling labor costs, passing on labor cost increases 
through increased billing rates where possible, and maintaining productivity 
levels of its billable technical staff.  Labor costs, however, are difficult 
to control because the highly skilled technical personnel the Company seeks 
to hire and retain are in great demand and intense competition in the 
industry makes it difficult to pass cost increases on to customers, while 
unfavorable economic conditions could adversely affect productivity.  
Although the Company has taken steps to control this category of expense, 
there can be no assurance the Company will be able to maintain or improve 
this level.

Selling, administrative and other operating costs, which include commissions, 
employee fringe benefits and location costs, represented 16.2% of revenues 
for the three months ended September 30, 1997 compared to 16.4% for the same 
period a year ago.  While the Company has been successful in controlling 
selling, administrative and other operating costs and is committed to careful 
cost management, there can be no assurance the Company will be able to 
maintain these costs at their current relationship to revenues.

Net income for the three months ended September 30, 1997 increased 39.1% over 
the same period a year ago.  As a percentage of revenue, net income has also 
increased from 3.9% for the three months ended September 30, 1996 to 4.0% for 
the three months ended September 30, 1997.  The Company's net income as a 
percentage of revenues provided directly was 5.1% and 5.0% for the three 
months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
