NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
  
GENERAL

by the Company in their Annual Report filed on Form 10-KSB for the
Fiscal year ended June 30, 1995.

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

Liquidity and Capital Resources of the Company 
  
During the third quarter of fiscal 1996, the Company increased it's cash by
$11,591 from operations. The Company received no proceeds from debt 
financing during this quarter.  United has cash in excess of $185,000 as of 
March 31, 1996, a portion of which management intends to designate for
the expansion of United's pay telephone base.

Results of Operations

Revenues of $565,124 for the third quarter of 1996 increased $58,568
from the same period last year.  The  gross profit margin decreased slightly 
from 55.9% in the third quarter fiscal 95 to 55.3% for the third quarter fiscal
1996, resulting in an increase in profit margin of $29,906.   The year to date
profit margin has increased from 49.6% through March of 1995 to 53.7% through
March of 1996. The year to date revenues for fiscal 1996 are higher than fiscal
1995 by $18,027, and the gross profit is higher by $73,367. Management 
believes that the increase in revenues and increase in profit margin is a 
result of relocating the Las Vegas base to the Phoenix and Tucson, Arizona,
areas and the increase in phones installed. The telephone bills and commissions 
in the Las Vegas area were higher than that in Arizona, therefore, management
believes that this trend will continue.  Also uring the third quarter 1996,
the Company entered into a service contract with another payphone
company in Phoenix, AZ, whereby the Company will collect and maintain
their phones for a flat fee.  This has increased revenue in the third quarter
1996 by $18,867.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $300,024 for the third
quarter 1996 a decrease of $21,632 over the same period last year.  Selling, 
G&A expenses of the nine month period of fiscal 1996 increased  $47,304,
primarily due to legal, accounting and other service fees incurred by the
Company in it's efforts to register securities for a public offering. The
company has also incurred additional legal and accounting fees in connection
with the SEC subpoena and investigation as described in the recent 10KSB. 
Management was successful in holding other general and administrative costs
constant. Management believes that gross revenues will increase during fiscal
year 1996 due to the increased number of pay telephones being placed in 
service.  The Company has a current inventory of phones that could be placed
in service, bringing the total phones in service to over 1,000.  

Management anticipates that general selling and administrative expenses
will continue to remain constant or slightly increase through the remaining 
quarter of the fiscal year while gross profit will continue to increase by 10%
to 15% as compared to the same time periods of the prior fiscal year.

The Company incurred a loss of $(8,044) for the third quarter 1996
compared to a loss of $(51,271) for the same timely period a year ago.  
Thus operating results increased by $43,227 as compared to this period last 
year. Non-cash depreciation continues to be  high, but has decreased during 
this quarter $61,200 as many of the original payphones have become fully 
depreciated.  The  Company believes that it is possible that it will report
it's first quarterly profit sometime this current fiscal year.

There are no seasonal aspects of the Company's business which had, or are
expected to have, a material effect on the financial conditions or results of
operations.

Plan of Operations

United's goal for 1996 is to find high grossing phone locations for its
existing phone inventory currently not in service, and to increase it's 
payphone base to over 1,000.  Its operating costs are expected to also 
go up from the increase in operations.  United intends to aggressively market
its payphones in the Arizona market and greatly expand its telephone base in
spite of the increased competition from other private pay phone companies. 
The Company has recently made a public offering effective and is  currently 
working on raising additional capital to expand its payphone base
through an agressive marketing plan or through the acquisition of an
existing phone base.
