                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (UNAUDITED)



A.  Pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission, certain financial information has been condensed and certain
footnote disclosures have been omitted.  Such information and disclosures are
normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles.

These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and notes thereto in the Company's latest report on Form
10-K.

The financial statements as of July 31, 1994 and for the nine month period then
ended are unaudited; however, in the opinion of management, such statements
include all adjustments (consisting solely of normal and recurring adjustments)
necessary to present fairly the financial information included therein.

B.  The consolidated statements of operations for the nine months ended July
31, 1994, are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be
expected for the full year.

C.  Earnings per common share are computed based upon the weighted average
common shares outstanding during the period, including common stock
equivalents, of 24,579,529 shares and 24,652,524 shares for 1994 and 1993,
respectively.

D.  On July 1, 1994, the Company acquired the assets of the cable television
system serving Elm Springs, Arkansas and parts of Springdale, Arkansas.  This
cable television system is located adjacent to, and will be operated by, a
currently owned system of the Company.  The acquisition was funded by the
payment of $515,665 in cash obtained from operations.

E.  On May 3, 1994, the Company announced its intention to buy back into
treasury up to one million shares of the Company's common stock.  Shares
purchased will be available for use in acquisitions or other corporate
purposes.  As of September 7, 1994, the Company had repurchased 110,000 shares.

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


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - Comparison of the three-month period ended July 31,
1994 with the same three-month period of the prior year reveals increases in 
revenues, operating income and net income. Revenues, operating income, and 
net income increased by approximately 7%, 6% and 7%, respectively.

The revenue increase was mostly attributable to internal growth. The Company's
basic accounts increased from 445,969 at July 31, 1993 to 454,568 at July 31,
1994 or approximately 2%. Average revenue per account increased from $28.25 to
$29.30 or approximately 4%.

Operating expenses increased approximately 8% during the third quarter of
fiscal 1994 as compared to the third quarter of fiscal 1993. Management
attributes approximately 28% of this increase to increased salaries, wages and
benefits and approximately 41% to increases in programming costs. The
remainder of the increase in operating expenses arises from general expansion
of the Company's cable system operations.

Interest expense decreased by approximately $258,000 or 10%. The decrease was
attributable to the repayment of term debt.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - The Company's capital expenditures have been
primarily for cable system construction, upgrading and rebuilding, acquisition
of other cable systems and purchases of converters to be furnished to
subscribers.

Expenditures for rebuilding, upgrading and maintaining the Company's cable
systems and for converter purchases have been financed principally with cash
flow from operations. Acquisitions of cable systems have generally been
financed with cash flow from operations and through bank borrowings.
