Independent Auditors' Report


Board of Directors
Uniroyal Chemical Company, Inc.
Middlebury, Connecticut:

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available
for plan benefits of Uniroyal Chemical Company, Inc. Retirement
Reserve Fund Plan (the "Plan") as of December 31, 1998 and 1997,
and the related statements of changes in net assets available for
plan benefits for the years then ended.  These financial statements
are the responsibility of the Plan's management.  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 management, 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 net assets available for plan
benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the
changes in net assets available for plan benefits 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 Assets Held for Investment Purposes at December 31,
1998 and Reportable (5%) Transactions for the year ended December
31, 1998 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.  These
supplemental schedules are the responsibility of the Plan's
management.  The Fund Information in the statements of net assets
available for plan benefits and the statements of changes in net
assets available for plan benefits is presented for
purposes of additional analysis rather than to present the net assets
available for plan benefits and changes in net 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.

                      UNIROYAL CHEMICAL COMPANY INC.
                      RETIREMENT RESERVE FUND PLAN

                      Notes To Financial Statements



1.     Plan Description

     General

     The Uniroyal Chemical Company, Inc. Retirement Reserve Fund Plan (the
"Plan") is a defined contribution plan established by Uniroyal Chemical
Company Inc. (the "Company") on January 1, 1990 by the merger of previously
existing plans.  An employee is eligible to participate in the Plan upon
completion of one month of service.  For complete information see the Plan
document.

     The Plan is administered by the Retirement Board (the "Board") consisting
of persons appointed by the Board of Directors of the Company.

     The Plan covers all salaried management employees who are not covered by
the terms of a collective bargaining agreement, unless such agreement
expressly provides for participation of the Plan.  Additionally, any employee
who on December 31, 1989, was a participant in either of the predecessor
savings plans shall continue as a participant of the Plan.

     Contributions

     The Company contributes certain percentages, as defined in the Plan, of a
participant's gross earnings, whether or not the participant chooses to
contribute.

     Each participant may contribute additional percentages of gross earnings
(subject to the Internal Revenue Code limitation for individual contributions
to a tax qualified plan) to the Plan, through payroll deductions, as voluntary
contributions, for investment in various mutual funds. The Company provides
matching contributions of 33 1/3% of the first 6% of the participant's
voluntary contributions.

     Basic employer contributions are immediately 100% vested. Matching
employer contributions are vested 33 1/3% after two years of service,
66 2/3% after 3 years of service and 100% for 4 or more years of service.

     For purposes of this Plan, gross earnings means the participant's pay
before any taxes or deductions are withheld.  The amount a participant chooses
to contribute is not subject to federal income tax until the participant
receives payment from the Plan.  A participant may elect to change their
contribution percentage on January 1, April 1, July 1, and October 1.

     Contributions to the Plan may be suspended as of the first day of any
payroll period in which the suspension is to take effect.  The contribution
may be resumed as of the first day of any payroll period upon thirty days
notice without any penalty during the same calendar year.  In any subsequent
year, contributions may begin at a different rate the first of each calendar
quarter.

     Employer contributions prior to January 1, 1998 were invested in
guaranteed investment contracts and short-term pooled investment funds
maintained by the State Street Bank and Trust Company. After January 1, 1998
employer contributions follow the participant's investment selections for
voluntary contributions. The guaranteed investment contracts will be held to
maturity and will then be invested according to the employees investment
selections. Voluntary contributions are invested in stock and mutual funds
maintained by the Scudder Investment Group and the Vanguard Investment Group.
The participant elects to allocate the voluntary contributions in whole
multiples of 25% in one or more of the authorized mutual funds.  Accumulated
balances can be transferred between funds and investment allocation ratios can
be changed with respect to future contributions.

     In any Plan year, the sum of Company and participant's voluntary and
deferred  contributions under the Plan are subject to Internal Revenue Service
limitations and shall not exceed the lesser of $30,000 or 25% of such
participant's compensation.

     Withdrawals

     At age 59 1/2 and thereafter, an active employee can withdraw funds from
the balance of his retirement reserve fund account at any time.  Before 59 1/2
withdrawals can be made from voluntary contributions in the event of
demonstrated financial hardship, as determined by the Plan Administrator
according to rules of the Internal Revenue Service.

     If the participant's employment terminates, the participant's account
balance will be distributed the month following the end of the month in which
his employment ends.  At December 31, 1998 and 1997 benefit payments due
employees who terminated prior to year end and requested distribution of their
accounts totaled approximately $1,591,000 and $499,000, respectively.  These
amounts have not been recorded in the financial statements but are included as
benefit payments and liabilities in the Plan's Form 5500.

2.     Significant Accounting Policies

     Basis of Presentation

     The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual
basis of accounting.

     Employee Accounts

     The Aon Consulting Company (the "record keeper") maintains an account for
each participant for the amount of Company contributions in fixed principal
and income contracts and subsequent income thereon.

     The investment companies, Scudder Investment Group and Vanguard
Investment Group, maintain an account for each participant who elects to make
voluntary contributions and are directed by the participant as to the
investment of the contributions.

     Expenses

     Expenses incurred are paid by the Plan, except to the extent that the
Company shall otherwise provide for such payment.  The Company pays for fees
charged by Scudder Investment Group and Vanguard Investment Group. The Company
provides administrative and accounting services for the Plan at no charge.

     Use of Estimates

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires the Plan to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported changes in net assets available for plan benefits
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

     Loans

     The Plan permits participants to borrow funds from the Plan subject to
certain restrictions.  The minimum amount that may be borrowed is $1,000.  A
participant may not have more than one loan outstanding at any time.  The
maximum amount which may be borrowed is the lesser of $50,000 reduced by (a)
the outstanding balance of loans from the Plan to the participant on the date
the loan is made, or (b) the highest outstanding balance of loans from the
Plan to the participant during the one-year period ending on the day before
the date the loan is made (excluding any payments made) or 50% of the value of
the participant's mutual fund account on the date the loan is made.  Loans
bear interest at a rate equal to 1.0% above the prime rate.  Loans are payable
within five years except for those used to acquire a principal residence which
are payable within 15 years.

3.     Investments

     Certain investments of the Plan are held in an individually managed
investment portfolio.  Such investments consist of shares of unallocated
guaranteed investment contracts and short term pooled investment funds (cash
equivalents).  Guaranteed investment contracts have been valued at contract
value (which approximates fair value).  Contract value represents
contributions made by the Company, plus interest at the contract rates, less
withdrawals or transfers.  The short term investment funds are valued at cost
plus accrued interest.  Such investments earned interest at rates ranging from
5.32% to 8.00% during 1998 and 4.95% to 8.00% during 1997.

     Participant contributions may also be invested in the mutual funds
sponsored by registered investment companies as may be authorized by the Board
as eligible investment alternatives under the Plan.  Such investments are
recorded at market valuations which are based on published market prices.
Purchases and sales of investments are recorded as of the trade date.

     The following table presents the fair values of investments at December
31, 1998 and 1997.  Investments that represent five percent or more of the
Plan's net assets for either year are separately identified.

(including investments bought, sold, as well as, held during the period)
(depreciated) appreciated in value by $(253,505) and $4,149,491, respectively.


4.     Tax Status

     The Internal Revenue Service has determined and has informed the Company
by a letter dated December 11, 1996 that the Plan and related trust are
designed in accordance with applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code
(the "IRC"). The Plan has been amended since receiving the determination
letter. However, the Plan administrator and the Plan's tax counsel believe
that the Plan is designed and is currently being operated in compliance with
the applicable requirements of the IRC


5.     Party-In-Interest Transactions

     The Chase Manhattan Bank, Aon Consulting , State Street Bank and Trust
Company, Scudder Investment Group, Vanguard Investment Group, Fleet Bank and
participants receiving plan loans are parties-in-interest as defined in
Section 3(14) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.  During
the years 1998 and 1997, there were no prohibited party-in-interest
transactions.

6.     Priorities Upon Termination of the Plan

     The Board of Directors of the Company shall have the right from time to
time to add to, modify or amend the Plan and to suspend for any period of time
the contributions to be made by all participants and the Company to the Plan,
and shall have the right at any time to terminate the Plan, provided that no
such addition to, modification, amendment or termination of the Plan shall
have the effect of reducing the interest of any participant accrued under the
Plan or of diverting any part of the assets of the Trust Fund for purposes
other than provided in the Plan.

     Upon any termination of the Plan, or complete and permanent
discontinuance of contributions of all participants, the value of each
participant's fixed principal and income account and mutual fund account,
shall be delivered and paid as soon as practicable.


     7.   Subsequent Events

     The Board of Directors of the Company on October 14, 1998 adopted a
resolution effective December 31, 1998 which adopted the Crompton & Knowles
Corporation Individual Retirement Plan (the "IARP") and amended the text of
the Plan effective December 31, 1998 in its entirety and substituted the text
to be substantially similar to that of the text of the IARP. Crompton &
Knowles Corporation is the sole shareholder of the Company.

     Effective January 1, 1999 the  Plan assets will be merged with the assets
of the IARP . The assets invested in the Scudder and Vanguard mutual funds
were liquidated and transferred on January 4, 1999 and January 5, 1999,
respectively for investment in the funds of the IARP administered by Fleet
Investment Management. Investments held in unallocated guaranteed investment
contracts with State Street Bank and Trust Company will be transferred as the
contracts mature. Short term pooled funds held by State Street Bank & Trust
Company were transferred on January 4, 1999.
