PROXY STATEMENT
____________________
This Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation by
the Board of Directors of Lucor, Inc., a Florida corporation (the "Company"),
of proxies from the holders of the Company's Class A Common Stock (the "Class
A Stock") for use at the 1998 Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Company to
be held at the Courtyard by Marriott, Conference Room A located at 1041 Wake
Town Drive, Raleigh, North Carolina, 27609 at 7:00 p.m., local time, on May
11, 1998 or at any adjournments or postponements thereof (the "Annual
Meeting"). The approximate date that this Proxy Statement and the enclosed
form of proxy are first being sent or given to holders of Class A Stock is
April 16, 1998. Shareholders should review the information provided herein in
conjunction with the Company's Form 10-K Annual Report (the "10-K Report")
which accompanies this Proxy Statement. The Company's principal executive
offices are located at its corporate offices at 790 Pershing Road, Raleigh,
North Carolina 27608, and its telephone number is (919) 828-9511.
INFORMATION CONCERNING PROXY
The enclosed proxy is solicited on behalf of the Company's Board of
Directors. The giving of a proxy does not preclude the right to vote in
person should any shareholder giving the proxy so desire. Shareholders have a
right to revoke their proxy at any time prior to the exercise thereof, either
in person at the Annual Meeting or by filing with the Company's Secretary at
the Company's principal executive offices a written revocation or duly
executed proxy bearing a later date; however, no such revocation will be
effective until written notice of the revocation is received by the Company at
or prior to the Annual Meeting.
The cost of preparing, assembling and mailing this Proxy Statement, the
Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders and the enclosed proxy will be borne
by the Company. In addition to the use of mail, employees of the Company may
solicit proxies personally and by telephone. The Company's employees will
receive no compensation for soliciting proxies other than their regular
salaries. The Company may request banks, brokers and other custodians,
nominees and fiduciaries to forward copies of the proxy material to their
principals and to request authority for the execution of proxies.
PURPOSES OF THE MEETING
At the Annual Meeting, the Company's shareholders will consider and vote
upon the following matters:
1. The election of the four members to the Company's Board of
Directors to serve until the 1999 Annual Meeting or until their
successors are duly elected and qualified; and
2. Such other business as may properly come before the Annual
Meeting.
Unless contrary instructions are indicated on the enclosed proxy, all
shares represented by valid proxies received pursuant to this solicitation
will be voted in favor of the election of the four nominees named herein. In
the event a shareholder specifies a different choice by means of the enclosed
proxy, his or her shares will be voted in accordance with the specifications
so made.
<PAGE>
OUTSTANDING VOTING SECURITIES AND VOTING RIGHTS
The Board of Directors has set the close of business on March 31, 1998 as
the record date (the "Record Date") for determining shareholders of the Company
entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting. As of the Record
Date, there were 2,145,733 shares of Class A Stock outstanding and 702,155
shares of Class B Common Stock (the "Class B Stock") outstanding, all of which
are entitled to one vote on the election of the Board of Directors.
The representation in person or by proxy of a majority of the issued and
outstanding shares of Class A Stock and Class B Stock (collectively, the
"Common Stock") entitled to vote is necessary to provide a quorum at the
Annual Meeting. Directors of the Company are elected by a plurality vote.
With respect to the election of directors, votes may be cast in favor of
nominees or withheld. Withheld votes will be excluded entirely from the vote
and will have no effect thereon. Broker non-votes are treated as shares as
to which voting power has been withheld by the beneficial owners thereof
and, therefore, as shares not entitled to vote thereon. Thus, although
broker non-votes on any particular proposal have no effect on the vote for
such proposal, they have the practical effect of reducing the number of
affirmative votes required to approve that proposal by reducing the total
number of shares entitled to vote thereon.
SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN
BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT
The following table sets forth certain information with respect to
beneficial ownership of the Common Stock as of March 31, 1998 by: (i) each
person known to the Company to beneficially own more that 5% of the Class A
Stock and Class B Stock; (ii) each director and nominee for director of the
Company; (iii) each executive officer named in the Summary Compensation Table;
and (iv) all directors and executive officers of the Company as a group.
Except as otherwise indicated, each shareholder named has sole voting and
investment power with respect to such shareholder's shares.

PROPOSAL 1
ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
Nominees
The Company's Bylaws provide for four directors. Each director elected
at the Annual Meeting will serve for a term expiring at the 1999 Annual
Meeting of Shareholders, expected to be held in May 1999, or until his
successor has been duly elected and qualified. The nominees for election are
Stephen P. Conway, Jerry B. Conway, Anthony J. Beisler, III and D. Fredrico
Fazio.
At the Annual Meeting, directors will be elected by a plurality of the
votes cast by holders of Class A Stock and Class B Stock, voting as a single
group. Unless contrary instructions are indicated on the enclosed proxy, all
shares of Class A Stock represented by valid proxies will be voted in favor of
the four nominees named herein.
Messrs. Stephen P. Conway and Jerry B. Conway directly or indirectly own
all of the 702,155 outstanding shares of Class B Stock, and directly or
indirectly own or by irrevocable proxy control the voting rights of 898,107
shares of the Class A Stock eligible to be cast on the election of directors.
Messrs. Anthony J. Beisler, III and D. Fredrico Fazio directly or indirectly
own an aggregate of 385,301 shares of Class A Stock. In addition, under the
Company's Articles of Incorporation, the holders of Class B Stock are entitled
to elect a majority of the directors.
These four shareholders have advised the Company that they intend to be
present at the meeting, and to vote their shares for the election of the four
nominees. Since the number of shares of Common Stock held or controlled by
these four shareholders represents a total of 69.7% of the votes that may be
cast at the Annual Meeting, these shareholders will be able to elect the four
nominees, regardless of how the other holders of Class A Stock vote their
shares in the election of directors.
Each of the nominees is a current member of the Board of Directors. See
paragraph on "Executive Officers and Directors" set forth below. The Board of
Directors has no reason to believe that any nominee will refuse to act or be
unable to accept election; however, in the event that a nominee is unable to
accept election, it is intended that proxies will be voted for the remaining
nominees, if any, and for such other person as may be designated by the Board
of Directors, unless it is directed by a proxy to do otherwise.
The Board of Directors recommends that you vote "FOR" all of the above
listed nominees for election as directors.
