1995.

statements for the past two years contained, and the report for
the most recent year contains, no adverse opinion or disclaimer of
opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty,
audit scope or accounting principle.
(iii)The Registrant's Audit Committee participated in and recommended
to the Board of Directors of the Registrant the decision to change
independent accountants.
(iv) During the two most recent fiscal years and through June 11, 1996,
there have been no disagreements with Van Dorn & Bossi on any

have caused them to make references thereto in their report on the
financial statements for such years.

years and through June 11, 1996, there have been no reportable
events (as defined in Regulation S-B Item 304 (a)(1)(iv)(B)).

letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the

The Registrant has requested that Van Dorn & Bossi provide such
letter as soon as possible so that the Registrant will be able to
