NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE A -- BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and,
therefore, do not include all information and disclosures
required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements.  In the opinion of management, the
financial statements reflect all adjustments (comprising only
normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly 
the Company's financial position as of March 31, 1997, and the
results of operations and changes in cash flows for the
three-month periods ended March 31, 1997 and 1996.  A summary of
the Company's significant accounting policies is set forth in
Note 1 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the
Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 1996.


NOTE B -- SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

On February 24, 1997, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly
cash dividend of $.15 per share.  This dividend was paid on April
4, 1997, to shareholders of record as of March 14, 1997.

Earnings per share amounts were computed based on 3,288,207 and
3,468,949 average shares outstanding for the three-month periods
ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively.  The dilutive effect
on earnings per share from unexercised stock option shares is not
material.

During the quarter ended March 31, 1997, the Company acquired
52,812 shares of the Company's outstanding common stock at an
aggregate cost of $835,014 under its current stock repurchase
program.


NOTE C -- RECLASSIFICATIONS

Certain reclassifications of 1996 statements of income amounts
have been made to conform with the 1997 presentation.

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

                          GENERAL
                          -------

The largest components of the Company's total revenue and total
expense are interest income and interest expense, respectively. 
Consequently, the Company's earnings are primarily dependent on
its net interest income, which is determined by (i) the
difference between rates of interest earned on interest-earning
assets and rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities 
("interest rate spread"), and (ii) the relative amounts of 
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.  Net
income also is significantly affected by levels of other income
and operating expenses.

Management believes that interest rate risk, i.e., the
sensitivity of income and net asset values to changes in interest
rates, is one of the most significant determinants of the
Company's ability to generate future earnings.  Accordingly, the
Company has implemented a long-range plan intended to minimize
the effect of changes in interest rates on operations.  The asset
and liability management policies of the Company are designed to
stabilize long-term net interest income by managing the 
repricing terms, rates and relative amounts of interest-earning
assets and interest-bearing liabilities.

                     RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                     ---------------------

In the first quarter of 1997, the Company's lending activities
decreased slightly in comparison with those of the prior year,
reflecting slightly higher levels of rates offered on new loans
compared with the preceding year's first quarter.  Loan
originations during the quarter totaled $25,497,778, representing
a decrease of 8.0% from originations of $27,719,386 in the same
period of 1996.  Principal repayments on loans and mortgage-
backed securities decreased substantially during the first
quarter of 1997, amounting to $18,546,042 compared with
$26,607,513 in the preceding year's first quarter.  The Company
sold fixed-rate mortgage loans in the amount of $5,080,894 during
the quarter ended March 31, 1997, compared with sales of
$2,366,922 during the first quarter of 1996. Increased sales
resulted from the establishment of a loan production office
through Deer Park Federal during 1996.  The Company continues to
emphasize variable-rate and short-term consumer lending products.

As a result of adjustable-rate loans and liquid assets repricing
to current market rates and the effects of lower-yielding assets
acquired with borrowed funds in arbitrage transactions, the
Company's net yield on interest-earning assets decreased to 7.61%
versus 7.78% in the year-earlier period.  The lower general level
of interest rates was also reflected in the cost of interest-
bearing liabilities as these rates declined to 4.93% in the
current quarter from 5.05% in the first quarter of 1996.  As a
result, the Company's net interest spread declined to 2.68% for
the quarter ended March 31, 1997, compared with 2.73% for the
first quarter of 1996.

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

The following table summarizes the Company's average net
interest-earning assets and interest rate spreads during the
three-month periods ended March 31, 1997 and 1996.

Average yield on:
  Interest-earning assets            7.61%       7.78%

                                     ====        ====
</TABLE>
Interest income for the period increased 5.8%, while interest
expense increased 7.6%.  As a result, net interest income
increased 3.4% in the first quarter of 1997 to $3,006,249
compared with $2,906,198 in the same period last year.  The
increase in net interest income resulted from a lower net
interest spread applied to a larger amount of interest-earning 
assets and interest-bearing liabilities compared with the
previous year.

The provision for loan losses increased to $36,000 for the
quarter compared with $18,000 in the prior-year period.  Net
charge-offs were $34,404 and $8,425 for the 1997 and 1996 first
quarters, respectively.  The following table summarizes the
Company's non-performing assets:

                                ======     ======     ======

Management believes the Company has provided sufficient loan loss 
reserves, amounting to $1,105,109, $1,103,513 and $1,085,613 at
March 31, 1997, December 31, 1996, and March 31, 1996,
respectively, to absorb any losses which may ultimately be
incurred on non-performing loans and the remaining loan
portfolio.

Other income for the quarter increased 8.4% to $604,226 from
$557,316 in the same period last year.  The Company recorded
profits on the sale of mortgage loans in the amount of $117,421
during the current quarter

compared with $43,906 during the preceding year quarter.  The
increase reflected the higher volume of loans sold compared to
the previous year. Other fees and service charges reflected
increased fees from automated teller machines, fees charged for
closing loans for third parties, late charges on delinquent loans
and increased fees associated with deposit products compared with
the previous year's quarter.  Brokerage and insurance commissions
decreased as customers increased their level of interest in
deposit products instead of financial instruments offered by 
the Company's subsidiaries.  While the Company recorded an
estimated loss on the operations of an unconsolidated affiliate
amounting to $50,000 compared with $9,461 in the prior year
quarter, it also reduced federal income tax expense by $35,000 in
1997 compared with $11,680 for the 1996 quarter in recognition of
its estimated share of tax credits to be earned by the affiliate
which is engaged in investing in low-income housing projects.

Other expense for the first quarter of 1997 totaled $2,198,359,
up 10.4% from other expense last year of $1,991,417.  Salaries
and employee benefits increased 20.1%, reflecting the increased
volume of loan origination and sales activity in Deer Park's loan
production office as well as staff increases in connection with
the Bank's opening of a new branch office in January 1997.  Net
occupancy expense increased by 19.6% to $302,331 also reflecting
the Company's investment in additional office locations.  Federal
deposit insurance decreased to $49,747 in 1997 from $171,643 in
1996 as a result of the premium reductions brought about by 
the recapitalization of the Savings Association Insurance Fund in
late 1996.  Other expense increased by 17.7% to $476,407 also
reflecting marketing, supplies and other costs associated with
the new facilities.

                    FINANCIAL CONDITION
                    -------------------

The Company's principal sources of funds are cash generated from 
operations, savings deposits, loan principal repayments and
advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank.  As of March 31, 1997,
the Company's cash and liquid investments totaled $62,866,482 or
15.6% of total assets.  This compared with $59,688,344 or 15.0%
of total assets at December 31, 1996.  The Company's banking
subsidiaries' combined regulatory liquidity at March 
31, 1997, was 10.0%, which exceeded the 5.0% liquidity base set
by the Office of Thrift Supervision.

The Company's banking subsidiaries, Ameriana Savings Bank and
Deer Park Federal Savings and Loan Association, have employed a
strategy to increase net interest income through the purchase of
mortgage-backed securities and other investments with the
proceeds of advances from the FHLB.  During the first quarter of
1997, approximately $5,000,000 of such transactions were 
completed.

The regulatory minimum net worth requirements for Ameriana
Savings Bank and Deer Park Federal Savings and Loan Association
under the most stringent of the three-tier capital regulations at
March 31, 1997, were approximately $14,108,000 and $2,882,000,
respectively.  At that date, the two institutions had regulatory
net worth in excess of the minimum requirement of approximately
$19,927,000 and $2,721,000, respectively.

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

At March 31, 1997, the Company's commitments for loans in process
totaled $7,349,000, primarily for single-family residential
mortgage loans.  Management believes the Company's liquidity and
other sources of funds will be sufficient to fund all outstanding
commitments and other cash needs.
