Item 5. Other Events
- --------------------

A class action complaint was filed in San Francisco Superior Court on November
17,  1995, alleging that  Pacific Bell, a  wholly owned subsidiary  of Pacific
Telesis  Group  (the "corporation"),  and  three long  distance  carriers have
engaged in wrongful conduct by rounding  up charges for telephone calls to the
next highest full minute of use, without disclosing the practice to customers.
Proposed class members in Ross, et al. v. Pacific Bell, et al., are California
residents who purchased  long distance or local  residential telephone service
from  Pacific Bell, AT&T,  MCI or "GTE-Sprint"  or their agents  over the last
four years, and were billed in  rounded up one-minute increments.   Plaintiffs
seek, among other relief,  compensatory and punitive damages. The  Corporation
believes that Pacific Bell's tariff permitted rounding  up to the next highest
minute for the periods at  issue, and that the likelihood of any material loss
in this case is remote.
