                          NOTE TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)


NOTE 1    -   GENERAL

The financial  statements  presented are those of May Limited Partnership 1983-1
(the "Partnership").  The interim financial data are unaudited;  however, in the
opinion of the general  partner,  the  interim  data  include  all  adjustments,
consisting  only  of  normal  recurring   adjustments,   necessary  for  a  fair
presentation of the results for the interim periods.  These financial statements
should be read in  conjunction  with the financial  statements and notes thereto
included in the Partnership's December 31, 1997 Annual Report on Form 10-K.


ITEM 2    -  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
             
Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Partnership  generated $93,000 of cash flow from operating activities during
the six months  ended June 30,  1998 and  distributed  $83,000  to  partners.  A
distribution  payable to partners of record as of June 30, 1998 was  declared in
July 1998. The  distribution  amount is $85,000  payable $48,960 to May Drilling
Partnership  1983-1 partners and $36,040 to the general partner.  The ability of
the Partnership to make future  distributions  is dependent on future prices for
the  Partnership's  production  and the  production  level of the  Partnership's
remaining oil and gas reserves.

Results of Operations

Second Quarter 1998 Compared to Second Quarter 1997

Gas Revenue

Gas revenue  increased  $31,000 during the second quarter of 1998 as compared to
the second  quarter of 1997 as a result of an  increase in price and an increase
in  production.  The average gas price  increased  from $2.26 per mcf in 1997 to
$2.47 per mcf in 1998.  Gas  production  increased  62% because two  temporarily
shut-in wells were back on line.  The two wells were  temporarily  shut-in while
workover procedures were performed during the second quarter of 1997.

Oil Revenue

Oil revenue  remained  constant during the second quarter of 1998 as compared to
the second  quarter of 1997.  The  average oil price  decreased  from $19.78 per
barrel in 1997 to $13.14 per barrel in 1998.  The price  decline was offset by a
56% increase in production  because two  temporarily  shut-in wells were back on
line.  The two wells were  temporarily  shut-in while workover  procedures  were
performed during the second quarter of 1997.

Lease Operating

Lease operating  expense  increased  $5,000 during the second quarter of 1998 as
compared to the second  quarter of 1997  primarily  due to increased  production
taxes related to the increased oil and gas production discussed above.

Depletion

Depletion expense increased $6,000 during the second quarter of 1998 as compared
to the second quarter of 1997 as a result of a higher depletion rate during 1998
resulting from the increase in oil and gas production discussed above.



<PAGE>


Professional Services and Other

Professional  services  and other  expense  decreased  $1,000  during the second
quarter of 1998 as  compared  to the second  quarter of 1997.  The  decrease  is
comprised of a net decrease in miscellaneous  other expenses,  none of which are
individually significant.

Six Months Ended June 30, 1998 Compared to the Six Months Ended June 30, 1997

The  comparisons for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and the six months ended
June 30, 1997 are  consistent  with those  discussed in the second  quarter 1998
compared to the second quarter of 1997 except for the following:

Gas Revenue

Gas revenue increased $25,000 during the first six months of 1998 as compared to
the  corresponding  period in 1997  primarily  as the result of an  increase  in
production  which was partially  offset by a decrease in price.  Gas  production
increased 39% because two  temporarily  shut-in wells were back on line. The two
wells were temporarily  shut-in while workover  procedures were performed during
the second quarter of 1997.  The average gas price  decreased from $2.76 per mcf
in 1997 to $2.45 per mcf in 1998.

Oil Revenue

Oil revenue  decreased $2,000 during the first six months of 1998 as compared to
the corresponding  period in 1997 primarily due to a decrease in the average oil
price,  partially  offset by an  increase in  production.  The average oil price
decreased  from  $21.34 per  barrel in 1997 to $14.54  per  barrel in 1998.  Oil
production  increased  29% because two  temporarily  shut-in  wells were back on
line.  The two wells were  temporarily  shut-in while workover  procedures  were
performed during the second quarter of 1997.

Interest

Interest income increased $1,000 during the first six months of 1998 compared to
the first six months of 1997 due to a higher average cash balance during 1998.
