NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 26, 1993
(Unaudited)

NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements 
include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries 
after elimination of significant intercompany accounts and transactions.  
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with instructions 
to Form 10-Q and do not include all the information and footnotes required 
by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial 
statements.  The statements (and all other information in this report) have 
not been examined by independent auditors, but in the opinion of the Company 
all adjustments, which consist of normal recurring accruals necessary for 
a fair presentation of the results for the period, have been made.  The 
results of operations for the period ended December 26, 1993, are not
necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the year ending 
June 30, 1994.  For further information, refer to the financial statements 
and footnotes included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the 
year ended June 30, 1993.  

Primary earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of common 
stock and dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding during each period.  
Common stock equivalents consist of stock options whose exercise price is 
less than the stipulated market price using the Treasury-stock method for 
both primary and fully diluted earnings per share.  The fully diluted
computation, when required, assumes the dilutive conversion of the Company's 
outstanding convertible debenture issues, after adding back the debentures' 
after-tax interest expense.  In the second quarter and first six months of 
fiscal year 1994, the assumed conversion of outstanding convertible 
debentures was not dilutive. 

NOTE B - INCOME TAXES
The Company provides U.S. income taxes on that portion of its foreign 
subsidiaries' earnings that it does not consider permanently invested.  
U.S. income taxes are not provided on certain undistributed earnings of 
foreign subsidiaries aggregating approximately $46,400,000 at December 26, 
1993. Otherwise, approximately $13,100,000 of cumulative deferred income 
taxes would have been provided.  Income tax provision for the first six 
months of fiscal year 1994 differs from the U.S. statutory income tax rate, 
primarily  due to lower effective income taxes on foreign earnings considered 
permanently invested.

NOTE C - INVENTORIES
Program related costs (excluding A-12 related costs as described in Note E) 
in excess of currently negotiated contracts and included in inventory 
approximated $5,800,000 and $7,630,000 at December 26, 1993, and June 30, 
1993, respectively.  The Company's policy is to defer only those costs in 
excess of current contract value that relate to government programs entered 
into before December 31, 1990, that it believes will be continued, or in the 
case of pending claims, that it believes are fully recoverable.

NOTE D - CHANGES IN AMOUNT OUTSTANDING OF SECURITIES OR INDEBTEDNESS
Outstanding borrowings under the Company's Revolving Credit and Commercial 
Paper agreements were approximately $29,000,000 greater at December 26, 1993, 
than at June 30, 1993.   Total unused credit facilities available to the 
Company at December 26, 1993, approximated $119,000,000.

The Company has two interest rate swap agreements that effectively converted 
$19,400,000 of its variable prime interest rate borrowings outstanding at 
December 26, 1993, to a fixed rate of 7.29% per annum.  The agreements expire 
on October 1, 2003.  The initial notional amount of the agreements was 
$20,000,000, which declines $600,000 each quarter through the expiration date.

NOTE E - TERMINATION OF A-12 AIRCRAFT PROGRAM SUBCONTRACTS
The Company was a subcontractor to General Dynamics Corporation (GD) and 
McDonnell Aircraft Company (McDonnell) for development of certain subsystems 
for the U.S. NAVY A-12 aircraft.  The Government in January 1991 announced 
cancellation (for default) of the A-12 prime contracts.  GD canceled for 
convenience its two subcontracts with the Company; negotiations were completed
during fiscal year 1993's first quarter at the approximate amount previously 
accrued for by the Company as settlement on those two subcontracts.  
Cancellations for convenience were also received from McDonnell and another 
A-12 aircraft subcontractor on an additional nine subcontracts, with settle-
ment negotiations ongoing.  In October 1991, McDonnell filed a sealed suit in 
Federal Court in St. Louis, Missouri claiming default on seven other sub-
contracts, which account for the majority of the Company's A-12 program ex-
posure of approximately $22,200,000. Based upon the advice of special counsel, 
the Company believes it has meritorious defenses, although no assurance can 
be given to that effect, and intends to vigorously pursue its counter claims 
against McDonnell through the courts.


ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF 
        OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Sales for the second quarter of fiscal year 1994 were $447.7 million compared 
with $450.6 million in fiscal year 1993's second quarter.   Sales for the 
first six months of fiscal year 1994 were $874.3 million, up 9% from $800.2 
million in the prior year.  Substantially all the sales increase resulted 
from increased volume as the Company experienced improved business conditions 
from the prior year.

Exchange rate fluctuations over the last twelve months, especially in the 
Company's European Region, had a small negative impact on the Company's 
revenue and profits.  The Company primarily uses the U.S. Dollar as the 
functional currency for its foreign operations.  

Operating income for fiscal year 1994 second quarter  was $15.6 million 
compared to $13.6 million in the preceding year. The second quarter's 
operating margin was 3.5% as compared to 3.0% in fiscal year 1993's second 
quarter.  Operating income for the first six months was $30.6 million 
compared to $23.5 million in the previous year.  Fiscal year 1994 first 
six months' operating margin was 3.5% compared to 2.9% a year ago.  
The operating margin improvement on a year-to-year basis principally resulted
from improved efficiencies as sales volume increased in the Company's 
domestic operations, after considering an approximate $4 million increase in 
depreciation and amortization expense.

Foreign sales represented 37% of fiscal year 1994 first six months' sales, 
as compared with 45% of fiscal year 1993's sales.  Foreign operating income 
accounted for 19% of fiscal year 1994 first six months' operating income, as 
compared to 30% in fiscal year 1993.  These declines resulted primarily from 
a softening in demand from the disk drive industry in the Company's Asian 
plants .  

The Company believes an important indicator of its performance is Asset 
Turnover (Sales divided by Total Assets).  Turnover on average assets for the 
first six months of fiscal year 1994 was 2.2 times; slightly below the 2.4 
times in fiscal year 1993's first six months.  The minor decline is mainly 
attributable to the higher investment in property, plant and equipment at
December 26, 1993, as compared to a year ago ($182 million versus 
$159 million).

Interest expense for the second quarter of fiscal year 1994 was $1.2 million 
lower than the $4.8 million incurred in fiscal year 1993's second quarter.  
Fiscal year 1994 first six month's interest expense was $1.3 million lower 
than that incurred in the same period last fiscal year.  These declines 
occurred even though average borrowings increased.  The Company has been able
to lower its effective borrowing rate through greater utilization of its 
available Commercial Paper facility, and through conversion (primarily in 
fiscal year 1993's fourth quarter) of $70 million 9% convertible subordinated  
debentures.

Fiscal year 1994's estimated effective income tax rate differs from the U.S. 
statutory rate primarily due to lower effective income taxes on foreign 
earnings considered permanently invested.  The estimated effective income tax 
rate for the first six months of fiscal year 1994 was 32% as compared to 27% 
in the prior year.  The increase mainly resulted from the absence of income 
tax credit carryforwards that were fully utilized in fiscal year 1993, and 
expiration of foreign income tax holidays.

Deferred income tax assets primarily relate to inventory valuation allowances 
that are not currently tax deductible. Sufficient taxable income exists to 
afford the Company the ability to carry back any excess of the future tax 
deduction for such items over future taxable income.  

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY
At December 26, 1993, the Company had working capital of $381 million versus 
$337 million at June 30, 1993, a 13% increase.  The ratio of Current Assets 
to Current Liabilities (current asset ratio) was 2.9 at December 26, 1993, 
compared with 2.4 at June 30, 1993.

"Available funds" at December 26, 1993, were approximately $140 million 
($21 million in cash and $119 million in unused credit facilities).  Increased 
borrowings may be required in the next six months to finance higher levels of 
working capital required to support anticipated revenue growth. 

During the first six months of fiscal year 1994, the Company's capital expend-
itures were $3.1 million less than depreciation and amortization.  Fiscal year 
1994's capital expenditures are currently anticipated to approximate deprec-
iation and amortization expense (currently estimated to be $52 million).

OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The dollar amount of order backlog at December 26, 1993, believed by the 
Company to be firm was approximately $977 million, as compared to $952 
million a year earlier, and $906 million a quarter earlier.
