General and administrative expenses in 1995 were 53% lower when compared to
1994 and 32% lower excluding a $308,000 charge for settlement of litigation 
during the first quarter of 1994.  Interest expense in 1995 was 33% higher
due to higher interest rates.  Depreciation, depletion and amortization costs 
were 11% lower in 1995 despite 21% lower production volumes.  The average
depletion rate in 1995 was $5.55 per BOE v. $5.00 in 1994.

Inflation has not had a material impact during the periods described above and
is not expected to have any material impact in the near future.  The prices 
received by the Company for oil and gas and the costs incurred by the Company 
for operations in the recent past and for the foreseeable future have been 
affected more by supply and demand factors and other general conditions than
by inflation.

Legal Proceedings
Wichita River Oil Corporation and the Company's subsidiary are defendants in 
various lawsuits arising in the ordinary course of business.  The Company 
believes it has meritorious defenses to the lawsuits and will defend against
them.  Based on its evaluation of such claims, as discussed with its outside 
legal counsel, Company management is of the opinion that the ultimate
resolution of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the
Company's financial position or results of operations and that such matters are
not material for an investment decision regarding the Company's securities.

Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
None.

Exhibits and Reports on Form 8-K
None.
