THRIFT PLAN FOR EMPLOYEES OF
ONEOK Inc. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Financial Statements

August 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992


(1) Description of Plan

    A brief description of the Thrift Plan for Employees of
    ONEOK Inc. and Subsidiaries (the "Plan") follows and is
    provided for general information only.  Participants should
    refer to the full text of the Plan for more complete
    information.  ONEOK Inc., the Plan sponsor, is hereinafter
    referred to as "the Company."

    General

    The Plan is a defined contribution plan which covers all
    employees of the Company and is subject to the provisions of
    the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).

    Participation and Contributions

    An employee may begin participation on the first day of the
    month following employment.  Participants may make pre-tax
    deferrals by depositing with the Trustee payroll deductions
    of up to a maximum of 14% of their basic compensation if
    certain deferral limitations are not exceeded.  Participants
    may make after-tax deposits of any whole percentage of their
    basic compensation up to a maximum of 6% as long as the
    total of pre-tax deferrals and after-tax deposits does not
    exceed 16%.

    After one year of service, the Company will match 100% of
    pre-tax deferrals and after-tax deposits, up to a maximum of
    6%.  The combined total of pre-tax deferrals, after-tax
    deposits, and Company matching contributions cannot exceed
    the lesser of $30,000 or 25% of the participant's annual
    compensation.

(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

    Investments

    Investments are stated at fair values based on the estimated
    current market value of the respective investments at the
    end of the year.  All investments are held by Bank of
    Oklahoma, N.A., as Trustee.  When available, current market
    value is determined based on published market quotes and
    trading activity of the underlying investment securities.

    Gains and Losses from Sale of Investments

    Gains and losses resulting from the sale of investments are
    differences between the average cost of specific investments
    sold and proceeds received.  Transactions are recorded on a
    trade date basis.

            Notes to Financial Statements, Continued

    Administrative Costs

    The Company pays all costs and expenses for administering
    the Plan, including expenses of the Committee and fees and
    expenses of the Trustee, except for brokerages, commissions,
    investment management fees, and transfer taxes applicable to
    investment of securities or investments acquired or sold for
    a participant's account.

    Income Taxes

    The Plan is a qualified trust under Section 401(a) and
    qualifies under the provision of Section 501(a) of the
    Internal Revenue Code, and is exempt from federal income
    taxes.  The plan has received a favorable determination
    letter.

(3) Investment of Funds

    The participants have the right to designate investment of
    their account balances, including their contributions and
    deferrals and the Company's matching contributions. 
    Investment options are changed from time to time by the
    administrative committee of the Plan.  Currently, these
    options are as follows:

     Common Stock of the Company - Stock is purchased and
     sold on the open market.

     Pooled S&P 500 Index Fund - Invests primarily in the
     500 stocks included in Standard & Poor's 500 Index.

     Insured Pooled Investment Account - Invests in
     insured bank certificates of deposit or other such
     investments as designated by the administrative
     committee.

     American Performance Equity Fund - Invests primarily
     in "blue chip" stocks.

     American Performance Bond Fund - Invests primarily in
     bonds issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or
     its agencies.

    If no investment option is elected by the participant, the
    funds are invested in the insured pooled investment account. 
    Participants may direct the investment of their account
    balances under more than one option.  However, the minimum
    investment that can be directed to any one option is 25%.

    The participants may direct the sale or other disposition of
    securities in their account and may change their investment
    instructions to the Trustee at intervals as provided in the
    Plan.  Neither the Company nor the Trustee guarantees the
    value of the investments nor do they indemnify any employee
    against any loss that may result from such investments.

            Notes to Financial Statements, Continued


    All interest, dividends, and other income received by the
    Trustee and all gains and losses from the sale of securities
    are credited or charged to the respective participant's
    account.  The cost charged to a participant's account for
    securities purchased is the average cost for all such
    securities purchased during the month.  Brokerage
    commissions, transfer taxes, and other charges and expenses
    in connection with the purchase or sale of securities are
    added to the cost of the securities purchased or deducted
    from the proceeds of the sale.

    Company contributions to the account of a participant and
    any income and earnings are immediately vested upon receipt
    by the Trustee (subject to subsequent loss through decline
    in value of investments).  Upon termination of the Plan,
    each of the participants will receive distribution of the
    entire balance of their account.

    The number of participants electing the various current
    investment options was as follows:

                                            August 31,    
                                        1994   1993   1992

     American Performance Equity Fund    135    107    144
     American Performance Bond Fund       98     87     54

    Participants may borrow from the Plan pursuant to Section
    408(b)(1) of the ERISA, as amended.  Loans may not exceed
    50% of the nonforfeitable accrued benefit of the
    participant.  Participant loans are stated at cost which
    represents estimated market value.

(4) Unrealized Appreciation of Investments

    The current market value, average cost and net unrealized
    appreciation of investments are summarized as follows:

                                     August 31,

                  Independent Auditors' Report

The Administrative Committee
Thrift Plan for Employees of
ONEOK Inc. and Subsidiaries:


We have audited the accompanying statements of assets of the
Thrift Plan for Employees of ONEOK Inc. and subsidiaries as of
August 31, 1994 and 1993, and the related statements of income
and changes in plan equity for each of the years in the three-
year period ended August 31, 1994.  These financial statements
are the responsibility of the Plan's management.  Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards.  Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An
audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that
our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the equity of the Plan
as of August 31, 1994 and 1993, and the changes in plan equity
for each of the years in the three-year period ended August 31,
1994, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the
basic financial statements taken as a whole.  The supplemental
schedules included herein are presented for the purpose of
additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic
financial statements but are supplementary information required
by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting
and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act
of 1974.  The fund information in the statements of assets and
the statements of income and changes in plan equity is presented
for purposes of additional analysis rather than to present the
assets and changes in plan equity of each fund.  The supplemental
schedules and fund information have been subjected to the
auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial
statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material
respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a
whole.
