PART II. - RULES 12b-25(b) AND (c)
The subject report could not be filed without reasonable effort or
expense and the Registrant seeks relief pursuant to Rule 12b-25(b). The
Registrant states the following:
A. The reasons described in reasonable detail in Part III of this form
could not be eliminated without unreasonable effort or expense;
B. The subject annual report on Form 10-KSB will be filed on or
before the fifteenth calendar day following the prescribed due date;
C. The accountant's statement or other exhibit required by Rule

PART III. - NARRATIVE
The Registrant has recently installed new officers to run the
Company. Since installing the new officers, the Registrant has been
diligently attempting to update its quarterly filings and complete
its audited financial statements for the year ended September 30, 1997
as required by Rule SB. The prior management has not been helpful
in providing the information necessary to complete these filings.
Because of the significant amount of work needed to complete the
annual report and past quarterly filings, it is not possible to timely
complete the necessary financial reports without unreasonable effort of
expense. This fact is confirmed by the Registrant's certified public
accountants, Pender Newkirk & Company, in an attached letter.
The Registrant and its certified public accountants are confident that
they can complete the financial statements within the additional time
period allowed by the filing of this Form 12b-25.
