Note 3. Notes Payable 

The company had a $1,000,000 revolving line of credit with a bank, with 
interest payable at 2% above the bank's prime rate of interest.  As of 
October 31, 1995 and January 31, 1996 there was an outstanding balance of 
$1,000,000.  On February 20, 1996, this line of credit was replaced with 
a $1,500,000 line of credit with another financial institution.

In September 1995 the Company borrowed $100,000 from a shareholder.  
The rate of interest is 12%.  The loan is repayable in monthly 
installments of $20,000, commencing January 15, 1996.  The balance 
outstanding as of January 31, 1996 and October 31, 1995 was $80,000

obtained a short term line of  credit of up to $200,000 from a shareholder.
Interest under this line accrues at a rate of 6% above the bank's prime

the Company's revolving line of credit.  As of January 31, 1996 and October 
31, 1995, there was $200,000 outstanding.

                     CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Results of Operations

Three months ended January 31, 1996 as compared to three months ended January 
31, 1995

	For the first three months of the Company's fiscal year ending October 31, 
1996 ("Fiscal 1996"), revenues increased to $2,313,124 from $1,740,306, an 
increase of 33% over the same period a year ago.  Net income was $78,159 or 
$.06 per share for this period as compared to net income of $59,213 or $.05 
per share in the first three months of Fiscal 1995.  Gross profit as a 
percentage of sales increased to 34.6% from 33.9% in the first three months 
of the prior year largely due to the product mix.  Selling, general and 
administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales was 29.2% in the current
period as compared to 29.1% in the prior period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
     The Company's working capital increased to $1,364,850 at January 31, 
1996 from $1,203,642 at October 31, 1995.  The Company's current ratio 
increased to 1.48 to 1 at January 31, 1996 from 1.40 to 1 at October 31, 1995.

	During the first quarter of Fiscal 1996, the Company obtained $50,000 in 
capital through a private placement offering.

	The Company continues to experience a tight liquidity position, resulting in
 the need for increased borrowing and sizable short term debt.  In the event
 the Company was unable to maintain its current borrowing facilities this 
could result in a severe cash shortage which could materially negatively 
impact the company's operations.
