4. Contingencies:

    (a)Old Vail Partners  (OVP), a consolidated  subsidiary and 50 percent owned
       by the Company,  owns approximately 40 acres of undeveloped land that are
       located within a special assessment  district of the County of Riverside,
       California  (the County) which was created to fund and develop  roadways,
       sewers,  and  other  required  infrastructure  improvements  in the  area
       necessary for the owners to develop their properties. Property within the
       assessment  district is collateral for an allocated portion of the bonded
       debt  that  were   issued  by  the   assessment   district  to  fund  the
       improvements.  The annual  payments  due  related to the bonded  debt are
       approximately  $156,000 for the 40 acres.  The payments  continue through
       the year 2014 and include interest at approximately 7-3/4 percent. OVP is
       delinquent in the payment of property taxes and  assessments for the last
       four years.  As of September 30, 1996, the County had obtained  judgments
       for the defaults under the assessment district obligations,  however, the
       County has not yet commenced foreclosure proceedings on these judgments.

       The  amount  due  to  cure  the  judgments  at   September 30, 1996   was
       approximately $711,000 ($688,000 at June 30, 1996). The principal balance
       of the  allocated  portion  of the  bonds  ($1,513,730),  and  delinquent
       interest and  penalties  ($597,668 and $547,360 at September 30, 1996 and
       June 30, 1996,  respectively)  are  classified  as  "Assessment  district
       obligation- in default" in the  consolidated  balance sheet. In addition,
       accrued property taxes in the balance sheet includes  $340,169  ($337,016
       at June 30, 1996) of delinquent  property  taxes and late fees related to
       the 40 acre parcel.

       In November 1993, the City of Temecula adopted a general development plan
       that  designates  the 40 acres of property  owned by OVP as suitable  for
       "professional   office"   use,   which  is  contrary  to  its  zoning  as
       "commercial"  use. As part of the  adoption  of its  general  development
       plan, the City of Temecula  adopted a provision that, until the zoning is
       changed on  properties  affected by the general  plan,  the general  plan
       shall prevail when a use  designated by the general plan  conflicts  with
       the  existing  zoning  on the  property.  The  result is that the City of
       Temecula  has   effectively   down-zoned   the  40  acre  parcel  from  a
       "commercial"  to  "professional  office"  use.  The  parcel is subject to
       Assessment  District liens which were allocated in 1989 based on a higher
       "commercial" use. Since the Assessment  District liens are not subject to
       reapportionment as a result of re-zoning,  a "professional office" use is
       not economically feasible due to the  disproportionately  high allocation
       of  Assessment  District  costs.  OVP has filed suit  against the City of
       Temecula  claiming that the City's  adoption of a general plan as a means
       of effectively  re-zoning the property is invalid.  Additionally,  OVP is
       claiming  that,  if the  effective  re-zoning  is valid,  the action is a
       taking  and  damaging  of  OVP's   property   without   payment  of  just
       compensation.  OVP is seeking to have the effective re-zoning invalidated
       and an unspecified  amount of damages.  The outcome of this litigation is
       uncertain.  If the City of  Temecula  is  successful  in its  attempt  to
       down-zone  the property,  the value of the property may be  significantly
       impaired.

   (b) The Company is involved in other various routine  litigation and disputes
       incident to its business. In the management's  opinion,  based in part on
       the advice of legal  counsel,  none of these matters will have a material
       adverse affect on the Company's financial position.

   (a) The Company's revolving line of credit limit was renewed and increased to
       from $300,000 to $500,000. The line of credit expires in September 1997.

       $3,950,000 cash, which resulted in a gain of $1,099,514. At September 30,
       1996,  $1,066,939 of the proceeds were still held in escrow.  These funds
       were  received on October 15, 1996.  The property and  equipment  and the
       long-term  debt  extinguished  from the sale proceeds  were  presented as
       current  assets  and  liabilities  at June 30,  1996,  respectively.  The

ITEM2. MANAGEMENT'S  DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL  CONDITION AND RESULTS
       OF OPERATIONS:

                           Liquidity and Capital Resources

The  working  capital  deficit  at  September  30,  1996 was  $1,520,893  versus
$2,308,787    at   June   30,    1996.    Excluding    the    balance   of   the
assessment-district-obligation-in-default  included in current liabilities,  the
Company's  working  capital of $590,505 as of  September  30, 1996 is a $838,202
increase  from the $247,697  working  capital  deficit as of June 30, 1996.  The
increase in working  capital is primarily  attributable to the proceeds from the
sale of three bowling  centers on August 7, 1996 which was  partially  offset by
the $503,223 of negative  cash flow from  operations  after debt service for the
three months ended September 30, 1996.  Other than an extra $115,000  payment in
July  1996 on a note  payable,  this  negative  cash  flow  from  operations  is
comparable to the same period in 1995 and is reflective  of the  seasonality  of
the bowling industry.

On August 7, 1996,  the Company  sold its three  bowling  centers in Georgia for
$3,950,000  cash.  Including  the  $1,066,939  of sales  proceeds held in escrow
(which was received on October 15,  1996),  the cash proceeds from the sale were
$2,052,000 after deducting selling expenses and extinguishing  related long-term
debt.

As  described  in  Note 4 of  the  Notes  to  Consolidated  Condensed  Financial
Statements, Old Vail Partners is delinquent in the payment of special assessment
district  obligations  and property taxes on 40 acres of  undeveloped  land. The
County of  Riverside  has  obtained  judgments  for the  default  in  assessment
district payments.  The amount due to cure the judgment as of September 30, 1996
is $711,000.  Other than a notice of levy received in November 1995 on a 33 acre
portion of the 40 acres of land,  the County has not yet  commenced  foreclosure
proceedings on the judgments.  If the County of Riverside  takes the property to
public sale and the  judgments  are not  satisfied  prior to the sale,  Old Vail
Partners  could lose title to the property and the property would not be subject
to  redemption.  Also  as  described  in  Note 4 of the  Notes  to  Consolidated
Condensed  Financial  Statements,  Old Vail Partners is contesting an attempt by
the City of Temeculah to effectively down-zone the property. As a results of the
judgments and the attempts to down-zone the property,  the recoverability of the
carrying value of this property is uncertain.

Management  estimates  a cash flow  deficit in the range or $200,000 to $250,000
for the remaining three quarters in the year ending June 30, 1997 from operating
activities  after  adding  estimated   distributions  from  UCV  ($445,000)  and
deducting  capital  expenditures and scheduled  principal  payments on long-term
debt. The Company believes its cash at September 30, 1996 and the Company's line
of credit  will be  sufficient  to fund the  expected  cash flow  deficit.  This
analysis  does  not  include   consideration  of  the  following  due  to  their
uncertainty:  any  distributions  the Company may receive from its investment in
Vail Ranch  Limited  Partners;  or, any payments  made on  delinquent or current
property taxes and assessments on undeveloped land.

BOWLING OPERATIONS:

On August 7, 1996, the Company sold its three bowling centers located in Georgia
for  $3,950,000,  which  resulted in a $1,099,514  gain. In May 1996 the Company
also sold the  Redbird  Lanes real estate and ceased  operations  of the bowling
center.  The Company has two bowling  centers  remaining that are located in San
Diego, California.

The  following  is a summary of the changes to the  components  of the loss from
operations of the bowling  segment during the three month period ended September
30, 1996 compared to the same period in 1995 that related to the  disposition of
the bowling centers in May and August 1996:

                                  Georgia     Redbird
                                   Bowls       Lanes     Combined
                                   -----       -----     --------
     Revenues ................   (483,000)   (288,000)   (771,000)
     Bowl costs ..............   (289,000)   (193,000)   (482,000)
     Selling, general and
      administrative expenses:
       Direct ................   (118,000)    (75,000)   (193,000)
       Allocated .............    (30,000)    (14,000)    (44,000)
     Depreciation ............    (37,000)    (25,000)    (62,000)
     Loss from operations ....      9,000     (19,000)    (10,000)
     Interest expense ........    (38,000)    (32,000)    (70,000)
     Net loss ................    (29,000)    (51,000)    (80,000)

The  following  is a  comparison  of  operations  of the two  remaining  bowling
centers:

There  was no  meaningful  change to the  bowling  revenues  of the two  bowling
centers in San Diego  compared to the same  period in the prior  year.  Although
revenues  were flat for the  summer  season,  management  is  forecasting  a six
percent  decrease  in  bowling  revenues  for the  remainder  of the year due to
declines at both San Diego  bowling  centers in the number of league  bowlers at
the beginning of the league season.

Bowl costs of these two centers  increased by $62,000  primarily  related to the
timing of bowling pin purchases and lane  resurfacing  that either occurred in a
different period in the prior year or had been deferred.

Selling,  general and  administrative  expense  directly  related to the bowling
segment decreased by $46,000 primarily due to a decrease in promotions  expense.
The  decrease in  promotions  expense  primarily  related to  discontinuing  the
awarding of points for the Company's  frequent  bowler  program.  Management has
concluded  that the  frequent  bowler  program  was not  achieving  the goals of
increasing the frequency of bowling or the loyalty of our customers.

Interest expense  decreased  related to these two bowling centers by $17,000 due
to the reduction in the balances of notes payable.


RENTAL OPERATIONS:

There were no significant changes to the components of the rental segment in the
period ended September 30, 1996.

OTHER ACTIVITIES:

Construction  costs as a percentage of construction  revenues stayed  relatively
consistent in the range of 86%-87%  during the periods ended  September 30, 1996
and 1995. Selling,  general and administrative costs related to the construction
segment increased by $20,000 primarily due to increased  incentive  compensation
as a result of the increased profitability in the second quarter.

Development  costs and expenses  primarily  consists of legal costs  incurred to
contest the City of Temecula's  attempts to down-zone the undeveloped land owned
by Old  Vail  Partners.  Interest  expense  related  to  development  activities
primarily  relates to interest  accrued on the past due and  current  assessment
district  obligations  of  Old  Vail  Partners.   Old  Vail  Partners  became  a
consolidated subsidiary on October 1, 1994.

Other than  changes  associated  with the  bowling  and  construction  segments,
selling,  general and  administrative  expense did not change  significantly  in
1996. However, as a result of the disposition of the four bowling centers in May
and  August  1996,  there  will be an  increase  in the  unallocated  portion of
corporate overhead,  even though there will not be an increase in the components
of corporate overhead.

The equity in income of investees increased by $22,000 in the three month period
due to improved  occupancy of  University  City Village  (UCV).  This  "seniors"
apartment  project has been  operating  at 97 percent  occupancy or better since
July 1995.
