Item 5.   Other Events

          As previously reported (see NYNEX Corporation's
          ("NYNEX") Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
          year ended December 31, 1993), on November 15,
          1993, NYNEX and New England Telephone and
          Telegraph Company ("New England Telephone")
          filed suit in the United States District Court
          for the District of Maine seeking an order
          declaring that section 533(b) of the Cable
          Communications Policy Act of 1984 is
          unconstitutional and permanently enjoining the
          United States from enforcing section 533(b)
          against NYNEX.  Section 533(b) prohibits NYNEX
          from providing video programming to subscribers
          in areas where New England Telephone or New
          York Telephone Company provide service.  On
          December 8, 1994, the court issued an opinion
          and order declaring that section 533(b) is
          unconstitutional and stating that it will
          enjoin the enforcement of section 533(b)
          against NYNEX and its subsidiaries within the
          NYNEX service area.  The Department of Justice
          is expected to appeal.
