NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE A

Effective January 1, 1994 the Company adopted Statement of Financial 
Accounting Standards No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt 
and Equity Securities. The adoption of this statement did not have a material 
effect on the consolidated financial statements.



NOTE B

Earnings per share are computed using the weighted average common shares 
outstanding during each period, including common equivalent shares assuming 
conversion of the convertible debenture. Earnings for calculation of the per 
share data are adjusted to reflect addback of interest expense on the 
convertible debenture.




The foregoing information for the periods ended April 3, 1994, and April 4, 
1993, is unaudited; however, in the opinion of management of the Registrant, 
it reflects all the adjustments, which were of a normal recurring nature, 
necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods. The 
condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 1993, is summarized 
from audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all the 
disclosures contained therein and should be read in conjunction with the 1993 
Annual Report. Interim results for the period are not indicative of those for 
the year.





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

Comparison First Quarter 1994 and 1993

Net sales decreased by $6,168,000 from $22,370,000 to $16,202,000, 
primarily due to decreased unit volume sales by the Company's commercial 
division. Factors contributing to the year-to-year sales change included 
ongoing customer adoption/refinement of inventory management procedures such 
as just in time, changes in customers' promotional timing, and the absence of 
shipments (previously disclosed) to a major customer. The quarter was also 
affected by the lack of sustaining contributions from the prior year's new 
product introductions.

Gross profit for 1994 decreased $2,405,000 primarily due to the volume 
reduction and the elimination of storage revenue. Gross margins as a 
percentage of sales decreased from 34% to 32%.

The company accrues unexpended advertising costs budgeted for the year 
against each quarter's sales. Major advertising commitments are incurred in 
advance of the expenditures and the timing of sales through dealers and 
distributors to the ultimate customer does not permit specific identification 
of the customers' purchases to the actual time an advertisement appears. 
Advertising charges included in selling expense in each quarter represents 
that percentage of the annual advertising budget associated with that 
quarter's shipments. Revisions to this budget results in periodic changes to 
the accrued liability for committed advertising expenditures.

Earnings before provision for income taxes decreased $1,395,000 from 
$3,973,000 to $2,578,000, or 35%. The provision for income taxes decreased 
from $877,000 to $386,000 and the effective income tax rate decreased from 
22% to 15%, as a result of decreased earnings subject to tax. Net earnings 
decreased $904,000 from $3,096,000 to $2,192,000, or 29%.

The Company maintains adequate liquidity for all of its anticipated capital 
requirements. As of quarter-end, there were no material capital commitments 
outstanding.
