            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                               (in thousands)



1.The  accompanying  unaudited  consolidated condensed  financial  statements
  have  been  prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q  and,
  accordingly,  these  footnotes  condense or omit  certain  information  and
  disclosures  normally  included in financial statements.   These  financial
  statements,  which  in  the opinion of management reflect  all  adjustments
  necessary for a fair presentation, should be read in conjunction  with  the
  financial  statements  and notes thereto included in the  Company's  Annual
  Report   on  Form  10-K  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  1994.    The
  accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements are  not
  necessarily  indicative  of future trends or the Company's  operations  for
  the entire year.

2.On  June 8, 1995, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a two-for-one
  stock split in the form of a 100% stock dividend, payable on July 21,  1995
  to  shareholders  of  record  as of June 23, 1995.   Par  value  per  share
  remained  at  $1.00.   The stock split resulted in the issuance  of  28,494
  additional  shares  of  common stock from authorized but  unissued  shares.
  The  issuance of additional shares resulted in the transfer of $23,603 from
  additional  paid  in  capital and $4,891 from retained earnings  to  common
  stock,  representing  the  par  value of the shares  issued.   Accordingly,
  common  shares  outstanding as of June 30, 1995 and  all  weighted  average
  share and per share amounts have been restated to reflect the stock split.

3.As  discussed  in  footnote F to the December 31, 1994 annual  report,  the
  cumulative  unrealized loss on the Company's foreign currency  Yen  and  DM
  swaps  of $9,327 at December 31, 1994 was recorded as a reduction in  other
  assets in the Company's December 31, 1994 consolidated balance sheet.

  The  Company's DM swap expired on March 31, 1995.  The Company paid  $3,546
  in  cash  to  close  out  the  swap.   The  cash  payment  represented  the
  cumulative effect of the foreign currency rate fluctuations over  the  life
  of the swap.

  The  cumulative  unrealized  loss on the Company's  Yen  currency  swap  of
  $23,546  at  June 30, 1995 is recorded in long-term debt in  the  Company's
  unaudited  June  30,  1995  consolidated balance sheet.   Accordingly,  the
  cumulative  unrealized loss of $9,327 at December 31,  1994,  as  discussed
  above,  has  been reclassified to long-term debt in the December  31,  1994
  consolidated balance sheet to conform to the 1995 presentation.

4.Depreciation  on property, plant and equipment acquired before  January  1,
  1989  generally  is provided using accelerated methods over  the  estimated
  useful  lives  of  the  assets.   Assets acquired  after  January  1,  1989
  primarily  are  depreciated  using straight-line  methods.   The  estimated
  useful lives of the Company's depreciable assets are as follows:

              Leasehold Improvements   Life of the Lease
              Buildings and Improvements 10-30 Years
              Production and Other Equipment  3-15 Years

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



Consolidated  net sales increased 21 percent in the second  quarter  of  1995
compared  to  the  second quarter of 1994; led by a 43  percent  increase  in
worldwide  sales to customers in the electronics / industrial market.   Sales
to  biotechnology  / pharmaceutical customers increased  13  percent  in  the
second quarter of 1995 compared to the second quarter of 1994.  The following
table summarizes sales growth by geography and market:

Foreign  currency  rate fluctuations, specifically the strengthening  of  the
Yen, French Franc, and German Deutsch Mark against the U.S. dollar, increased
reported  sales  growth by 10 percent in the second quarter  of  1995  and  9
percent for the first six months of 1995.

Gross  margins  increased in the second quarter of 1995 to  59.6  percent  of
sales  as  compared  to  57.6  percent in the second  quarter  of  1994.  The
improvement  in  gross  margins is primarily due to  significantly  increased
production volume in the Company's electronics / industrial plants as well as
continued  cost  control  activities in all of  the  Company's  manufacturing
operations.

Selling,  general  and administrative expenses increased 26  percent  in  the
second  quarter of 1995 compared to the second quarter of 1994,  an  increase
consistent with sales growth.  The Company continued to invest in  sales  and
marketing  programs  to  support future sales  growth,  particularly  in  the
Asia/Pacific region.  Research and development expenses in the second quarter
of  1995 were slightly higher than the second quarter of 1994, as the Company
continued  to  fund all major programs.  Net interest expense in  the  second
quarter was higher in 1995 compared to 1994 primarily due to increased short-
term  borrowings  made  during  the first quarter  of  1995.   The  Company's
effective  income tax rate for the first six months of 1995 is 22.5  percent,
consistent with the full year effective rate in 1994.

                   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                                 (continued)



A  substantial portion of the Company's business is conducted outside of  the
United States through its foreign subsidiaries.  This exposes the Company  to
risks associated with foreign currency rate fluctuations which can impact the
Company's  revenue  and  net income.  To partially mitigate  this  risk,  the
Company  has  entered into foreign currency transactions,  primarily  forward
exchange  contracts to sell Yen, on a continuing basis in amounts and  timing
consistent with the underlying currency exposure so that the gains or  losses
on  these transactions offset gains or losses on the underlying exposure.  In
the  second  quarter of 1995, a loss of $804K was realized on  the  Company's
forward  exchange contracts and was recorded in cost of sales.  For  the  six
months  ended  June  30, 1995, losses of $1,274 have  been  realized  on  the
Company's  forward  exchange contracts and recorded in cost  of  sales.   The
Company does not engage in any speculative trading activity.

The Company generated $29.3 million of cash from continuing operations in the
first six months of 1995 compared to $39.2  million in the first six months
of 1994.  Cash generated from operations and $35.0 million of additional
short-term borrowings in the first six months of 1995 was used to invest in
fixed assets, satisfy ongoing obligations relating to the divested
businesses, pay dividends, and buy back shares of the Company's stock.
Property, plant and equipment expenditures in the first half of 1995 were
higher than in the first half of 1994.  The Company expects second half 1995
capital expenditures to be in line with those of the first half.

During the first six months of 1995, the Company spent $51.5 million to re-
purchase shares of its common stock.  Of this amount, $22 million was spent
to close out the Company's $100 million share repurchase program announced in
the fourth quarter of 1994.   In the first quarter of 1995, the Company
announced plans to spend an additional $50 million on open market share
repurchases and has spent $29.5  million in share repurchases.  The Company
expects that further 1995 share repurchases will be funded by cash generated
from its operations.

The Company generated approximately $3.7 million of net cash from
discontinued operations in the second quarter of 1995, principally due to
$10.0 million of proceeds related to the discontinued businesses.  Cash spent
in the second quarter of 1995 to satisfy obligations arising from the
discontinued operations was lower than the first quarter of 1995 and in line
with the Company's expectations.  The Company expects further quarterly 1995
cash expenditures related to its discontinued operations to be in line with
those of the second quarter.
