Filing reporting the late filing of a Form 10-Q Quarterly Report for the period
ending December 31, 1997 (the "Filing"). The Company respectfully withdraws the
Filing because it is not required to file a Form 10-K Annual Report for its
fiscal year ended December 31, 1997 until March 31, 1998. Please call the
undersigned at 216-736-7220 if you have any questions or comments regarding this
matter, and feel free to call collect. Thank you for your attention to this
matter.


                                    Very truly yours,

                                    /s/ Steven L. Wasserman

                                    Steven L. Wasserman
                                    Secretary
