            Annual Report to Shareholders for the year ended April 1,
            1995.

        2.  The provision for income taxes is as follows:

        Net                     --                           --

            The change to the valuation allowance for all the periods
            presented represents the realization of tax benefits of
            temporary differences which reversed during the respective
            periods except for $607,000 of the change in the nine months
            ended December 30, 1995.  This decrease in the valuation
            allowance resulted from the Company's reevaluation of the
            realizability of future income tax benefits because of its
            continued profitability.  Specifically the Company has been
            profitable from continuing operations for the past seven
            quarters and has exceeded budget estimates during this
            period.  It estimates that this profit trend will continue
            through the near future.  Therefore it believes that it is
            now more likely than not that it will realize approximately
            the $607,000 of the tax benefits previously part of the


                                Page 7
<PAGE>






            valuation allowance.  If the Company is unable to generate
            sufficient taxable income in the future through operating
            results, increases in the valuation allowance will be
            required through a charge to expense.  However if it achieves
            sufficient profitability to utilize a greater portion of the
            deferred tax asset, the valuation allowance will be reduced
            through a credit to income.

        3.  In December 1994, an early lease cancellation agreement was
            reached with the lessor of the equipment and software for the
            central computer system used to control the Company's
            discontinued retail operations.  The equipment was returned
            to the lessor and the fair value of that equipment was
            deducted from the Company's remaining obligation to the
            lessor.  A $100,000 initial payment was made on the $610,000
            obligation resulting from this settlement with the remainder
            payable in monthly installments through December 1996 with
            the remaining balance due to be paid at that time.

            The agreement also provided for a discount from the face
            amount of the obligation, by making a payment to the lessor
            in advance of the agreed schedule.  Thus, in October 1995,
            the Company paid about $294,000 in satisfaction of about
            $452,000 in debt.  The resultant $158,000 gain was recorded
            as an extraordinary item.

            A $613,000 extraordinary item relating to the early payment
            of certain trade creditors was discussed in the Company's
            Form 10-Q for the quarter ended July 1, 1995.

        4.  Certain amounts in the 1994 financial statements were
            reclassified to conform to the 1995 presentation.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
                 Condition and Results of Operations

        Results of Operations

        Net sales of $4,774,000 were recorded in the quarter ended
        December 30, 1995.  Sales in that quarter were 5.1% less than the
        $5,028,000 recorded in the same period a year ago, due primarily
        to reductions in mail and dealer sales partly offset by increases
        in demonstration sales.  Additionally, the Company, due to
        production limitations, was unable to fulfill orders generated in
        its second quarter last year on a timely basis.  This order
        backlog was eliminated in the third quarter last year thus
        increasing that period's sales.  The Company was able to fulfill
        orders on a timely basis throughout the current year and thus no
        additional sales were booked during the third quarter of the
        current year due to elimination of backlogs.  For the nine months
        to date, net sales, at $11,611,000, were down 1.6% from that same
        period a year prior.

        Increases in the proportion of sales from higher-margin selling
        channels and sales price increases caused gross margins to
        increase from 46.4% and 45.5% of net sales in the third quarter
        and first nine months of last year to 51.1% and 50.0% in the same
        periods this year.

        Selling and administrative costs rose by 27.4% and 12.3% from the
        third quarter and first nine months, respectively, of last year
        to $2,115,000 and $4,867,000 in the same respective periods in
        the current year.  As a percent of net sales, these costs
        increased from 33.0% in the first three months and 36.7% in the
        first nine months of last year to 44.3% and 41.9% in the same
        respective periods in the current year.  The additional costs
        resulted from increased  advertising in the demonstration sales
        channel, the production and mailing of a fall product catalog,
        the recruiting and training of new sales representatives.

        Reduced current-year borrowing and investment of idle funds
        caused net interest costs to change from the same period last
        year by 115% to $4,000 in interest income in the current third
        quarter from $24,000 in interest expense in the same period last
        year and decrease by 90% to $10,000, in the first nine months of
        the current year.

        The changes (see Note 2) to the deferred income tax valuation
        allowance for all the periods presented represents the
        realization of tax benefits of temporary differences which
        reversed during the respective periods except for $607,000 of the
        change in a prior quarter of the current fiscal year.  This
        decrease in the valuation allowance resulted from the Company's
        reevaluation of the realizability of future income tax benefits
        because of its continued profitability.  Specifically the Company
        has been profitable from continuing operations for the past seven
        quarters and has considerably exceeded budget estimates during
        this period.  It estimates that this profit trend will continue
        through the near future.  Therefore it believes that it is more


                                Page 9
<PAGE>






        likely than not that it will realize approximately the $607,000
        of the tax benefits previously part of the valuation allowance.
        If the Company is unable to generate sufficient taxable income in
        the future through operating results, increases in the valuation
        allowance will be required through a charge to expense.  However
        if it achieves sufficient profitability to utilize a greater
        portion of the deferred tax asset, the valuation allowance will
        be reduced through a credit to income.

        As discussed in Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements
        included herein, the Company availed itself of an early-payment
        discount feature of an early lease cancellation agreement that
        was reached in December 1994.  The discount amounted to $158,000
        or $.06 per share in the quarter ended December 30, 1995.  Also,
        as was discussed in the Company's 10-Q for the quarter ended July
        1, 1995, the Company availed itself in that period of an early
        payment discount feature of a voluntary payment plan that was
        approved by affected creditors in June 1994.  The discount
        amounted to $613,000 or $.23 per share and was recorded as an
        extraordinary item.  In combination, the discounts for the early
        lease cancellation agreement and the voluntary creditor payment
        plan amounted to $771,000 or $.29 per share in the nine months
        ended December 30, 1995.

        The above resulted in net income of $498,000 or $.19 per share in
        the quarter and $2,329,000 or $.87 per share in the nine months
        ended December 30, 1995.  The above results compare to net income
        of $679,000 or $.26 per share in the quarter ended December 31,
        1994 and $983,000 or $.39 per share in the nine months ended on
        that date.

        Liquidity and Capital Resources

        $121,000 of cash was used in operations in the nine months ended
        December 30, 1995.  In that period, net income, adjusted for non-
        cash items, provided cash of $1,287,000 while $1,237,000 of cash
        was used to reduce accounts payable, both in connection with the
        early payment discount provision of a voluntary vendor payment
        plan which was discussed earlier and due to normal seasonal
        fluctuations, as well as to reduce other current liabilities.  In
        the nine months ended December 31, 1994, operations provided cash
        of $705,000, principally through inventory reduction and net
        income.  $2,790,000 was used, during that period, to reduce
        accounts payable and other current liabilities.  Property
        additions were $155,000 for the first nine months of the current
        year as compared to $232,000 in the first nine months of the
        prior year.  In the first nine months of the current year,
        $742,000 was provided by the liquidation of short-term
        investments.

        $734,000 was used to reduce long-term payables in the first nine
        months last year.  Long-term payables were reduced by $497,000
        during the first nine months of the current fiscal year because
        of the satisfaction, during that period, of amounts due to
        creditors involved in the voluntary payment plan which is
        discussed above.  Additionally, $323,000 was used to pay the


                                Page 10
<PAGE>






        balance of a term loan that was established in connection with an
        early computer lease cancellation agreement which is discussed
        above and in Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements
        included herein.

        Net income during the first nine months increased the Company's
        net worth to a positive $1,108,000 resulting in a debt to net
        worth ratio of 2.68 to 1.  Because of the Company's negative net
        worth at the end of the first nine months of the prior fiscal
        year as well as at the end of fiscal 1995, measurement of the
        debt to equity ratio at those dates is not relevant.
        Profitability caused working capital to improve to a positive
        $26,000 at December 30, 1995 from a negative $918,000 at April 1,
        1995 and a negative $944,000 at December 31, 1994.  The resulting
        current ratio improved to 1.01 at December 30, 1995 from 0.81
        April 1, 1995 and 0.77 at December 31, 1994.


        No amount was outstanding under the revolving bank line of credit
        at December 30, 1995.  Management believes financial resources
        will be adequate to meet operating needs.
