- ----------------------------------               -------------------------------



Item 1.  Security and Issuer

         The title of the class of equity  securities  to which  this  statement
relates is the  Common  Stock,  par value  $0.10 per share  (the  "Shares"),  of
Reflectone,  Inc., a Florida  corporation  (the  "Company").  The address of the
Company's  principal  executive  office is 4908  Tampa  West  Boulevard,  Tampa,
Florida, 33634-2481.

Item 2.  Identity and Background

         The persons  filing this  Statement  are Hollybank  Investments,  LP, a
Delaware limited  Partnership ("LP") and Dorsey R. Gardner,  the general partner
of LP ("Gardner").  The business address of both Gardner and LP is One Financial
Center,  Suite 1600, Boston,  Massachusetts  02111. LP was formed on January 14,
1994, and is authorized to conduct any business  which may be legally  conducted
by a limited partnership under the laws of Delaware. As of the date hereof, LP's
sole  business is  securities  investment.  During the last five years,  neither
Gardner nor LP has been convicted in a criminal  proceeding  (excluding  traffic
violations and similar misdemeanors),  nor has either Gardner or LP been a party
to a  civil  proceeding  of a  judicial  or  administrative  body  of  competent
jurisdiction as a result of which Gardner or LP was or is subject to a judgment,
decree  or final  order  enjoining  future  violations  of,  or  prohibiting  or
mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any
violation with respect to such laws.

Item 3.  Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

         This  statement  relates  specifically  to LP's August 16, 1996 sale of
90,000 Shares of  Reflectone,  Inc. at a per share price of $21.9375  (excluding
the $.05/share  commission) on the NASD. This sale, when aggregated with Gardner
and LP's other recent Share sales, gives Gardner deemed beneficial  ownership of
79,146 of the 2,816,785  outstanding  Shares, thus bringing Gardner below the 5%
ownership  threshold and triggering this reporting  requirement.  LP added these
and all of its other  Share sale  proceeds  to its  working  capital,  while the
proceeds from Gardner's Share sales were returned to his personal funds.

Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction

         LP and Gardner have sold their respective shares strictly in the course
of equity security  investment.  Neither Gardner nor LP has any present plans or
proposals which would relate to or result in:

         (a) The  acquisition  by any  person of  additional  securities  of the
Company, or the disposition of securities of the Company;

- ----------------------------------                ------------------------------



         (b)  An  extraordinary   corporate  transaction,   such  as  a  merger,
reorganization or liquidation, involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries;

         (c) A sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Company or
any of its subsidiaries;

         (d) Any change in the present  board of directors or  management of the
Company,  including  any  plans or  proposals  to change  the  number or term of
directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board;

         (e) Any  material  change in the  present  capitalization  or  dividend
policy of the Company;

         (f) Any other  material  change in the Company's  business or corporate
structure;

         (g)  Changes  in  the   Company's   charter,   bylaws  or   instruments
corresponding  thereto or other  actions  which may impede  the  acquisition  of
control of the Company by any person;

         (h) Causing a class of  securities of the Company to be delisted from a
national  securities  exchange or to cease to be  authorized  to be quoted in an
inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association;

         (i) A class of equity  securities of the Company becoming  eligible for
termination  of  registration  pursuant to Section  12(g)(4)  of the  Securities
Exchange Act of 1934; or

         (j)  Any action similar to any of those enumerated above.
