or the Securities  Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment  Company
Act of 1940 during the  preceding 12 months or for such shorter  period that the

                                                        [x] Yes        [ ] No

         (3) Is it  anticipated  that  any  significant  change  in  results  of
operations  from the  corresponding  period  for the last  fiscal  year  will be
reflected by the  earnings  statements  to be included in the subject  report or
portion thereof?

                                                        [x] Yes        [ ] No

Quarterly results of operations  amounted to net income of approximately $44,000
or one cent per share on revenue of $1,427,786  for the three month period ended
June 30,  1997 as  compared to a loss of $372,179 or $(.09) per share on revenue
of  $1,611,647  for the same period of the prior  year.  Improved  results  were
attributable  mainly to absence of a reserve for litigation  settlement recorded
in fiscal  year  1996  third  quarter.  Year to date  results  were  revenue  of
$3,964,929  and net  income of  $322,390  or $.07 per share  versus  revenue  of
$3,683,117  in the prior year  resulting in a net loss of $374,179 or $(.09) per
share.
