Item 4. Change is Registrant's Certifying Account
            On March 31, 1998, the audit committee of the board of directors 
of Crown Laboratories, Inc., upon the recommendation of management of the
Company, voted (I) to dismiss the Company's independent public accounts, Arthur
 Andersen LLP, and (II) engage BDO Seidman, LLP as the Company's independent
 public accountants for the year ended December 31, 1997.

            The reports issued by Arthur Andersen LLP on the Company's financial
statements for the each of years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995 did not
contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or
modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles, except that 
the report for the year ended December 31, 1995 was modified as regards the 
ability of the Company as to continue as a going-concern.

          For each of the Company's two most recent fiscal years and subsequent 
thereto, there were no disagreements between the Company and Arthur Andersen LLP
on any matter of accounting principles and practices, financial statement
disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which  disagreements, if not
resolved to the satisfaction of Arthur Andersen LLP, would have caused it to    
make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in its report, nor were
there any "reportable events" as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

          For each of the Company's two most recent fiscal years and subsequent
thereto, the Company had not consulted with BDO Seidman, LLP on any matter 
concerning either (I) the application of accounting principles to a completed 
or proposed transaction, or (II) the type of audit opinion that might be 
rendered on the Company's financial statements.

Item 5. 
          The Company has retained new accountants which are in the process of 
performing the 1997 audits. The Company anticipates completing this audit on or 
before the end of the prescribed time period under Rule 12b-125. Consequently,
the Company is submitting Form 12b-25 for an extension of time to file its 
10-KSB with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
