           NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                              APRIL 30, 1997
                                (unaudited)

1.   Basis of Presentation

     The accompanying financial statements have been prepared by
     the Company, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
     Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).  This Report on Form
     10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company's
     financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended
     October 31, 1996 included in the Company's 1996 Annual Report
     to Shareholders.  Certain information and footnote disclosures
     which are normally included in financial statements prepared
     in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
     have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules and
     regulations.  The information reflects all normal and
     recurring adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are
     necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position of
     the Company and its results of operations for the interim
     periods set forth herein.  Because of the seasonality of the
     Company's business, the results for the three and six months
     ended April 30, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the
     results to be expected for the full year.  The financial
     statements include the combined financial position, operations
     and cash flows for Personnel Management, Inc. and its wholly-
     owned subsidiaries, hereafter referred as "the company".

2.   Per Share Disclosures

     Per share amounts are based on the weighted average number of
     shares of common stock outstanding during the period,
     including the dilutive effect of warrants and stock options. 
     For the aforementioned items, the effect on the weighted
     average number of shares outstanding was computed using the
     treasury stock method using the actual date of grant or
     exercise for shares and options issued.

3.   Acquisitions

     The company acquired on March 17, 1997 the assets of Garner-
     Scott Enterprises, Inc., a staffing business based in Madison,
     Indiana and Carrollton, Kentucky with annual revenues of
     approximately $2,100,000.  The business was acquired for
     $250,000 plus 33.3% of future income before income taxes and
     other adjustments derived from the areas served by the
     business through February 28, 2002.  The acquired business
     operations provide predominately light industrial staffing
     services.

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

The following should be read in conjunction with "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations" included in the Company's 1996 Annual Report to
Shareholders.

SELECTED INCOME STATEMENT COMPARISONS

REVENUES.  For the three months ended April 30, 1997, revenues
increased 9.6% or $1,566,000 compared to the 1996 period, to
$17,954,000.  The increase was a result of internal revenue growth
of approximately 8.0% and the acquisition of the two staffing
businesses in March 1997.

For the six months ended April 30, 1997, revenues increased 13.7%
or $4,162,000 compared to the prior year period, to $34,580,000. 
This increase was due to internal revenue growth of 6.8% and the
acquisitions of staffing businesses in February 1996 and March
1997.

GROSS MARGINS.  Gross margin is defined by the company as revenues
less the cost of providing services, which includes hourly wages of
temporary employees, employer payroll taxes, benefits for temporary
employees and workers' compensation costs.  Gross margin for the
three months ended April 30, 1997 was $3,641,000 or 20.3% of
revenues, compared to $3,407,000 or 20.8% of revenues for the
corresponding prior year period.  The increase in gross margin of
$234,000 was primarily due to increased revenues.  The decline in
gross margin as a percentage of revenues was attributable primarily
to competitive pricing.

Gross margin for the six months ended April 30, 1997 was $6,880,000
or 19.9% of revenues, compared to $6,209,000 or 20.4% of revenues
for the corresponding prior year period.  The increase in gross
margin of $671,000 was primarily due to increased revenues.  The
decline in gross margin as a percent of revenues was attributable
primarily to competitive pricing.


SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES.  Selling, general and
administrative expenses for the three months ended April 30, 1997
were $2,792,000 or 15.6% of revenues compared to $2,754,000 or
16.8% of revenues in the corresponding prior year period.  Selling,
general and administrative expenses for the six months ended April
30, 1997 were $5,569,000 or 16.1% of revenues compared to
$5,257,000 or 17.3% of revenues in the corresponding prior year
period.  The increase in SG&A expenses for both the three and six
month periods was entirely associated with the staffing businesses
purchased by the company in February 1996 and March 1997.  SG&A
expenses as a percentage of revenues declined as a result of lower
professional fees and provision for bad debts.<PAGE>

AMORTIZATION OF GOODWILL.  Goodwill represents the unamortized cost
in excess of fair value of net assets acquired and is being
amortized on a straight-line basis over 20 years.  Goodwill
amortization for the three and six months ended April 30, 1997
increased 7.3% and 9.4%, respectively, compared to the previous
year period.  This increase was a result of the amortization of
goodwill related to the businesses acquired in February 1996 and
March 1997, and the amortization of payments of additional purchase
price to the prior owners of acquired businesses under the earnout
provisions of the acquisition agreements.

INTEREST EXPENSE, NET.  The decrease of $18,000 or 26.8% and
$41,000 or 30.3% in interest expense, net of interest income for
the three months and six months ended April 30, 1997, respectively,
compared to the prior year period was due primarily to lower
average borrowings compared to the corresponding prior year period.

INCOME TAXES.  The increase in income tax expense for the three and
six month periods ended April 30, 1997 compared to the prior year
periods was a result of an increase in net income before income
taxes and the effective income tax rate.  The effective income tax
rate for the current year periods was 48% compared to 44% in the
prior year periods.

NET INCOME.  Net income for the three months ended April 30, 1997
increased 30.8% to $368,255 compared to net income of $281,500 for
the prior year period.  Earnings per share increased 28.6% to $0.18
from $0.14.

For the six months ended April 30, 1997, net income increased 47.8%
to $536,597 compared to net income of $363,100 in the prior year
period.  Earnings per share increased 44.4% to $0.26 from $0.18.

The increases in net income for both the three and six month
periods in fiscal 1997 were attributable to increases in revenues
and decreases in selling, general and administrative expenses as a
percentage of revenues.

FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash provided by operating activities during the six months ended
April 30, 1997 was $283,000 and net borrowings under the bank
credit facility was $400,000.  Primary uses of cash were $187,000
for repayments on long-term borrowings, $257,000 for capital
expenditures and $563,000 for purchases of businesses and payments
under the earnout provisions of acquisition agreements.

Management believes that cash provided by operations, augmented by
borrowings for working capital purposes under the bank credit
facility, will be adequate to satisfy the Company's operating cash
requirements during fiscal 1997.

On January 21, 1997, the Company accepted a commitment from
KeyBank, NA to refinance its bank credit facility which provides
the Company with the ability to borrow up to $11,000,000 for
general working capital purposes, acquisition financing, letters of
credit and the refinancing of outstanding borrowings.  The facility
consists of a two year $8,500,000 revolving line of credit and a
five year $2,500,000 term loan.  Borrowings under the line of
credit are subject to meeting certain borrowing base requirements. 
Upon maturity, up to $4,000,000 of  borrowings for acquisition
financing under this line convert to a five year term loan.  At
April 30, 1997, the Company's availability under the line of credit
was approximately $4,456,000.


The $2,500,000 term loan is payable in equal monthly principal
installments of $42,000 beginning February 1997.  The Company's
existing and committed credit facilities are secured and
collateralized by accounts receivable, equipment, cash, general
intangibles, contract rights, and proceeds thereof.  In addition,
the Company has agreed with the bank under the credit facilities to
certain financial and non-financial restrictive covenants, which
include, among other things, minimum levels of tangible net worth,
minimum cash flow coverage ratios, maximum ratio of indebtedness to
earnings, restrictions on capital expenditures, restrictions on
common stock repurchases, and restrictions on future mergers,
consolidations, acquisitions or joint ventures.  At April 30, 1997,
the Company was in compliance with its covenants.
