                         Independent Auditors' Report

Benefits Administration Committee
A. P. Green Industries, Inc.:

We have audited the statements of assets available for plan benefits of the
A. P. Green Industries, Inc. Hourly Investment Plan (the Plan) as of
December 31, 1993 and 1992, and the related statements of changes in assets
available for plan benefits for the years then ended.  These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Plan Administrator.  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 the Plan Administrator, 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 assets of the Plan as of December 31, 1993 and
1992, and the changes in assets for the years then ended, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.  The supplemental schedules of
investments at end of plan year and reportable transactions 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 statement of assets available for plan benefits and the statement of
changes in assets available for plan benefits is presented for purposes of
additional analysis rather than to present the assets available for plan
benefits and changes in assets available for plan benefits 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.

                         Notes to Financial Statements

                          December 31, 1993 and 1992


(1)   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

      (a)   Description of the Plan
            The following brief description of the Plan is provided for        
              general information purposes only.  Participants should refer to 
              the plan agreement for more complete information.

            The A. P. Green Industries, Inc. Hourly Investment Plan (the Plan) 
              was created January 1, 1991.  When established, each employee    
              subject to a collective bargaining agreement between the Company 
              and Local 790, Aluminum Brick and Glass Workers, was eligible to 
              participate.  In addition, the hourly employees of the Company's 
              Bessemer and Little Rock divisions are also eligible to          
              participate in the Plan.  Effective July 1, 1993, the hourly     
              employees of the Company's Oak Hill and Sulphur Springs plants   
              became eligible to participate in the Plan.

            The Plan was established to enable eligible employees to           
              accumulate their own funds, share in the contributions of their  
              employers, and acquire an interest in the stock of A. P. Green   
              Industries, Inc.

            The Plan's funds are administered under the terms of a trust       
              agreement with Mercantile Bank of St. Louis N.A. (Trustee).  The 
              trust agreement provides, among other things, that the Trustee   
              shall keep account of all investments, receipts and              
              disbursements, and other transactions and shall provide annually 
              a report setting forth such transactions and the status of the   
              funds at the end of the year.
 
            In 1991, employee contributions were invested by the Trustee in    
              one of four funds as directed by the participant:  (a) common    
              stock of A. P. Green Industries, Inc. (Common stock fund); (b) a 
              fixed income fund which provides investments in deposits of life 
              insurance companies; group annuity contracts of life insurance   
              companies; or common, commingled, or collective trust funds      
              maintained by the Trustee (Guaranteed income fund); (c) an       
              equity index fund which provides investment results that are     
              designed to correspond to the performance of publicly traded     
              common stocks, as represented by the Standard & Poor's Composite 
              500 Index (Equity index fund); or (d) debt and equity            
              securities' portfolios (mutual funds) managed by the Trustee     
              (Balanced fund).

            Participants may elect to have their contributions invested 100%   
              in any one fund or 50%-50% between any two funds.  Participants  
              can also change their investment election and previous           
              accumulated account balances each quarter.  To change their      
              investment option, transfer their prior accumulated account      
              balances to another investment option, increase or decrease the  
              percent of contributions, or make requests for withdrawals,      
              participants are required to provide a 15-day advance notice as  
              of the first pay period of any calendar quarter.  Company        
              contributions are invested only in Company stock.  If the        
              Trustee is unable to invest any contributions immediately, the   
              money is temporarily invested in a common, commingled, or

                            HOURLY INVESTMENT PLAN

                         Notes to Financial Statements


              collective investment fund and any earnings of the fund are      
              credited to the participants' accounts.

            At December 31, 1993, there were 420 employees participating in    
              one or more of the following plan funds as follows:

                                                      Number of
                      Fund                          participants

                  Common stock                           146
                  Guaranteed income                      161
                  Equity index                           183
                  Balanced                               151

      (b)   Basis of Presentation
            The accompanying financial statements of the Plan have been        
              prepared on the accrual basis of accounting and present the      
              assets available for plan benefits and changes in those assets.

      (c)   Investments
            Marketable investments are stated at fair value.  The fair value   
              of marketable investments is based on quotations obtained from   
              national security exchanges.  Money market fund investments, not 
              readily marketable or negotiable, are  stated at cost, which     
              approximates fair value.

            Securities transactions are recognized on the settlement date.  No 
              material trades were pending at December 31, 1993 or 1992;       
              therefore, the value of investments on a settlement date basis   
              approximates the value of investments on a trade date basis.     
              Dividend income is recorded on the ex dividend date.

            At December 31, 1993 and 1992, there were 55,961 and 26,405 shares 
              of common stock of A. P. Green Industries, Inc. held by the      
              Plan, respectively.

      (d)   Costs of Plan Administration
            Fees and expenses incurred by the Trustee and the Plan             
              Administrator in the administration of the Plan are paid by the  
              Company.  Expenses solely attributable to the investment of plan 
              funds shall be paid by plan assets.

      (e)   Reclassifications
            Certain 1992 amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 1993 
              presentation.

(2)   Summary of Significant Plan Provisions
      The Plan is a defined contribution plan sponsored by A. P. Green         
        Industries, Inc. and certain wholly owned subsidiaries and is subject  
        to the provisions of ERISA.  The Plan is structured to incorporate the 
        provisions available under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue      
        Code, which allows member and sponsor contributions to be excluded     
        from Federal and state income taxation within certain prescribed       
        limits.

                                                                (Continued)

                            HOURLY INVESTMENT PLAN

                         Notes to Financial Statements


      (a)   Contributions
            Company contributions are equal to 25% of each participant's       
              quarterly contributions, not to exceed 6% of the participant's   
              eligible earnings.  All Company contributions are made           
              conditioned upon their deductibility for Federal income taxes.

      (b)   Participant Accounts
            Three accounts are maintained for each participant:  (1) a         
              participant account for elective, voluntary contributions, (2) a 
              participant cash account for employees' allocated shares of      
              cash, and (3) an employer account for the allocated shares of    
              employer contributions, both cash and stock.  Company            
              contributions, plan earnings, and forfeitures are allocated to   
              the participants' accounts on a pro rata basis.

            Participants are at all times vested in the portion of their       
              accounts attributable to their elective and voluntary            
              contributions.  For the portion of their accounts attributable   
              to Company contributions, participants are fully vested after    
              five years of continuous service.

      (c)   Payment of Benefits
            Under the terms of the Plan, participants retiring or becoming     
              totally disabled become fully vested and are eligible to receive 
              the entire balances in all of the accounts maintained for such   
              participant by the Trustee.  Participants terminating employment 
              prior to retirement receive their contributions and the earnings 
              on such contributions, and the portion of the employer           
              contribution account and earnings of such account which is       
              vested.  In the event of death, the balances in a participant's  
              accounts are fully vested and payable to the designated          
              beneficiary.

            Distributions under the Plan are payable in a lump sum of either   
              cash or stock.

(3)   Plan Termination
      Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company reserves  
        the right to terminate the Plan or discontinue its contributions at    
        any time subject to the Plan's provisions and the provisions of ERISA. 
        In the event of termination of the Plan, the account balances of all   
        affected participants shall become nonforfeitable.  All unallocated    
        Company shares shall be distributed to the participants according to   
        their pro rata share of plan assets.

(4)   Summary of Assets Available for Plan Benefits
      Assets available for plan benefits are comprised of the following:

                                                         1993       1992

      Assets available for benefit claims
           currently payable                         $    16,714      9,475
      Assets available for future benefit claims       2,304,971  1,263,693
           Assets available for plan benefits        $ 2,321,685  1,273,168


                                                                (Continued)

                         Notes to Financial Statements


      For regulatory reporting under Form 5500, benefit claims currently       
        payable are categorized as a liability with a corresponding reduction  
        of assets available for plan benefits.

(5)   Federal Income Taxes
      The Plan's instruments have not been submitted to the Internal Revenue   
        Service for a determination that the Plan meets the requirements to    
        qualify it to be exempt from Federal income taxes.  However, in the    
        opinion of the Plan Administrator and the Plan's counsel, the Plan and 
        trust instruments satisfy the qualification requirements for tax       
        exemption under applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code.

(6)   Investments
      The following table presents the fair values of investments.             
        Investments that represent 5% or more of the Plan's assets are         
        separately identified:
