was payable at the end of each calendar quarter since September 30, 1992.  The
principal balance of the term loan was payable at the end of each calendar
quarter commencing June 30, 1993, in 28 equal quarterly installments.  Interest
was at a rate of the lender's prime plus 1/2%, fluctuating accordingly.  The

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

SOURCES AND USES OF FUNDS
  During the first six months of 1994, Commercial's' largest source of funds,
its deposits, grew $8.5 million or 3.63% from December 31, 1993, to $242.6
million.   The largest increase was in time deposits, which were up 8.9% ($9.0
million).  Non interest-bearing demand and savings deposits also experienced
increases.  Non interest-bearing deposits were up $1.6 million (5.0%) and
savings were up $2.4 million (4.5%).   However, interest-bearing demand deposits
decreased $4.6 million or 9.6%.  The predominant interest for consumers during
the first half of 1994 was in time certificates of deposit of short term.
Customers appeared to move to time deposits to increase their return as yields
began to edge upward.
  Commercial's' position in the Federal funds market was somewhat higher than at
year end.  Net sales of funds were $8.4 million at June 30, 1994, compared to
$7.9 million at year end.  Federal funds purchased increased from $0 to $5.3
million.  Commercial's banks regularly undertake borrowings to accommodate
smaller correspondent banks and in such cases those funds are ordinarily
invested in federal funds sold.  Additionally, during the first half of 1994 the
increase in loans exceeded the growth in deposits and borrowings were used as an
inexpensive source of short-term funds.  Federal funds sold represent temporary
liquid investments that may be used to meet loan or deposit demands, as well as
funds that are awaiting investment in longer term investments.
  The long term debt of the ESOP was eliminated, as the $424,000 balance was
paid off by the ESOP during the first quarter.
  Cash and due from banks increased by $356,000 or 3.5% from December 31, 1993,
to June 30, 1994.  Changes in this category are not unusual, as the balance
fluctuates with inflows and outflows of deposits.
  Commercial's' largest use of funds, lending,  increased by $16.9 million
(9.7%) during the first half of the year.  Consumer and commercial loans both
experienced increases while credit cards and real estate loans showed slight
decreases.
  The securities portfolio decreased.   It was down $4.6 million or 8.3%.  The
investment in securities is expected to continue to decline during the year, as
it is expected the proceeds of maturing securities will be reinvested in loans
whenever possible.

EARNINGS--SIX MONTHS
  Consolidated net income for the first half of 1994 was 11.85% less than the
first half of 1993 ($1,354,000 in 1994, $1,536,000 in 1993).  Fully diluted
earnings per common share were $1.44 compared to $1.63 for 1993.
  Total interest income increased 1.43% or $132,000 from $9,206,000 in 1993 to
$9,338,000 in 1994.   Total interest expense decreased 8.69% or $318 thousand
from the 1993 level.  This resulted in an increase of 8.11% or $450 thousand in
net interest income.
  The provision for loan losses was 39.42% less in 1994 than it was in the first
half of 1993.  The 1994 provision was $126 thousand compared to net loan losses
of $33 thousand.  In 1993, the first half provision was $209 thousand and there
were net recoveries of $66,000.  At June 30, 1994, the reserve for possible loan
losses of $2,481,000 was equal to 1.29% of net loans outstanding.  This compares
with $2,388,000 or 1.37% of net loans outstanding at December 31, 1993.
  Non interest income decreased 0.61% from the first half of 1993 to the first
half of 1994.  Trust department fees were down by 8.86%.  Service charges and
fees grew 25.21%.  However, Other income declined $55,000 or 15.58% from 1993 to
1994.  In 1993, the gains on loans sold was $76,000 higher than 1994.  The loan
fee reduction was the result of a decrease in the number and volume of loans
being offered for sale.
  None of Commercial's' subsidiary banks sold securities during the first half
of either 1993 or 1994.  However, in 1993, there were securities gains arising
from a security being called at a premium.  Therefore, there was a $15,000
decrease in gains on securities from 1993 to 1994.
  Non-interest expense increased 15.92%, or $631,000 from 1993 to 1994.  The
major cause of the increase is attributed to employee compensation and benefits,
which grew $461,000 or 22.72%.  In 1993, an unusually large proportion of the
employee expense was delayed until the fourth quarter because of late
implementation of a new incentive bonus program.  For 1994, Commercial and its
banks have been accruing the 1994 expense since the beginning of the year.  This
has caused a substantial increase in employee expense compared to 1993.
However, it is expected that the total employee expense for the year will be
approximately 10% more than the 1993 expense.
  Occupancy expense was up $3,000 compared to the same period in 1993.
Furniture and equipment was down $2,000.  Together, these fixed assets expenses
increased $1,000, from a combined total of $617,000 in 1993 to $618,000 in 1994.
  Other operating expense increased $169,000 (12.83%) from the first half of
1993.  Most items that are included in the category were not significantly
different from the prior year.   Marketing expense did increase $32,000 or
51.61%   Also FDIC Insurance increased due to the increase in deposits.
  Net income before taxes was down $104,000 (4.40%) for the 1993 period, but the
provision for Federal and state income taxes increased $78,000 or 9.44%.  The
deferred tax calculation on the reserve for loan losses, in compliance with FAS
109, caused an increase in the effective tax rate for the period.

EARNINGS--THREE MONTHS
  Consolidated net income for the second quarter of 1994 was 6.90% more than the
second quarter of 1993.  ($883,000 in 1994 and $826,000 in 1993).   Fully
diluted earnings per share were $0.94 compared to $0.88 for the 1993 quarter.
  Total interest income increased 6.68% to $4,885,000 from $4,579,000 in 1993.
Total interest expense decreased 7.93% to $1,694,000 from $1,840,000 in 1993.
As a result, net interest income increased $452,000 or 16.50% from the second
quarter of 1993.

 The provision for loan losses was 34.09% higher during the second quarter of
1994 than it was during the second quarter of 1993.  The 1994 provision was
$59,000 compared to net losses of $33,000.  The 1993 second quarter provision
was $44,000 compared to net recoveries of $51,000.
  Non interest income increased 16.09% from 1994 to 1993.   Trust department
income experienced a decrease of $26,000 (16.88%) from the second quarter 1993
to 1994.  Services charges and fees were up $74,000 or 41.34% from the second
quarter of 1993, and other income increased $27,000 or 20.30%.
  Non-interest expense was up 18.22% ($348,000) from the second quarter of 1993.
Employee compensation and benefits increased by 23.78%, or $220,000.  Occupancy
expense increased $12,000 (11.01%) while furniture and equipment decreased
$9,000 (4.84%).  All other operating expenses increased $126,000 (18.26%)
  Net income before taxes was up 13.11% and the provision for Federal and state
income taxes increased $106,000 (24.94%) from 1993.

NONACCRUAL, PAST DUE AND RESTRUCTURED LOANS
  The principal amount of nonaccrual loans was $716,000 at June 30, 1994, a
decrease of $251,000 (25.96%) from December 31, 1993.  Loans past due 90 days or
more and still accruing totaled $414,000 June 30, 1994, up $305,000 from year
end totals.  Restructured loans totaled $1,382,000 at the end of the second
quarter of 1994.

LIQUIDITY
  BancShares primary source of liquidity has been the attraction and retention
of retail deposit accounts.  The total deposit growth over the six month period
was 3.63%, or an increase of $8,487,000.  Time deposits, a prime component of
core deposit relationships, grew $9.0 million, an 8.95% increase.  Deposits
promise to continue to be a good source of funds.  Also available to Commercial
are short-term market-rate liabilities, including Federal funds purchased and
securities sold under agreements to repurchase.  These instruments are currently
used to accommodate customers and on a limited basis to provide a short-term
source of funds.  Commercial's' largest subsidiary is a member of the Federal
Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh, which makes available to its members a number of
credit products, any or all of which could be used to meet liquidity needs.
Additionally, Commercial is aware of brokers who could, in a short period of
time, provide large amounts of certificates of deposit at market rates.  None of
Commercial's' banks currently use or intend to use brokered funds, but the
source exists should liquidity needs require its use.  Commercial's' banks also
have extensions of credit that are guaranteed by various U.S. government
agencies and are, therefore, salable.
  Although liabilities provide its primary sources of liquidity, Commercial also
maintains an adequate level of cash and near-cash items on hand to meet day-to-
day operating needs.  Additionally, Commercial owns marketable securities and
short-term investments that can be converted to cash in a very short time.
Maturing within one year is 20.4% of the total securities portfolio.


CAPITAL
   During the first six months of 1994, Commercial increased it stockholders'
equity by $833,000 (3.91%), bringing the balance at June 30, 1994, to $22.1
million or, 8.12% of total assets.  The increase was from internal capital
growth.
   In January 1989, banking industry regulators officially released risk-
adjusted capital guidelines for banks and bank holding companies.  The
guidelines established final requirements that must be achieved by year-end
1992.  As of June 30, 1994, Commercial's' Tier 1 ratio of 11.56% and combined
Tier 1 and Tier 2 ratio of 12.81% exceed the requirements.  Additionally,
Commercial's' ratios of primary capital to total assets of 7.87% and total
capital to total assets of 8.73% exceed the final requirements which became
effective at year-end 1992 for those relationships.
