ITEM 4. CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT.

        On October 23, 1996, Mr. Joel S. Baum, C.P.A., was dismissed as
        principal accountant to audit the financial statements for the 
        Registrant.
        
        The Registrant has retained Dohan and Company, Certified Public
        Accountants, P.A. on October 23, 1996 to act as principal accountant
        to audit financial statements for the Registrant.

        (i). The former accountant was dismissed on October 23, 1996.

        (ii). Said principal accountant's report on the financial statements
        for either of the past two years did not contain an adverse opinion
        or disclaimer of opinion nor was the same qualified or modified as
        to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.

        (iii)(B). The decision to change accountants was recommended and
        approved by the Board of Directors of the Registrant on October 23,
        1996.

        (iv). During the Registrant's two most recent fiscal years preceding
        the replacement, there were no disagreements between the former 
        accountant and the Registrant on any matter of accounting principles
        or practices, financial statements disclosure, or auditing scope or
        procedure.

    (2) A new independent accountant has been engaged as the principal
        accountant to audit the Registrant's financial statements. The
        newly engaged accountant is the firm of Dohan and Company, C.P.A.,
        P.A. and was retained as of October 23, 1996.

    (3) The former accountant's letter is enclosed as Exhibit A, or is being
        filed independently.
