                 10% STOCK DIVIDEND
                          
Lansing, Michigan -- CFSB Bancorp, Inc., (NASDAQ-NMS: CFSB)
holding company for Community First Bank, announced today the
Corporation's Board of Directors declared a 10 percent stock
dividend payable June 12, 1998 to stockholders of record on May
29, 1998.  Stockholders will receive one share of common stock
for each 10 shares they hold on the record date.  Stockholders
entitled to receive fractional shares will receive cash based on
the stock's market price on May 29, 1998.  Management
anticipates the Corporation's next regular quarterly cash
dividend will be paid on July 13, 1998 and expects the current
dividend rate of $0.13 per share will remain in effect for both
the current and new shares.

As previously announced, the Corporation's Board of Directors,
at its April 21, 1998 meeting, approved an extension of the
April 1997 stock repurchase program whereby the Corporation may
acquire up to 387,750 shares of the Corporation's common stock,
which represents approximately 5 percent of the outstanding
common shares.  The repurchase program was designed to offset
the future dilution incurred in connection with the
administration of the Corporation's stock option plans and the
issuance of stock dividends.  To date, 327,188 shares have been
repurchased in open market transactions and the Corporation
intends to reissue these shares in conjunction with the 10
percent stock dividend.
