purchased last year, was Servitronics, a company specializing in automatic vending
equipment.

stock until it holds enough to make a takeover bid for the company. The accountants
have been instructed to continue to classify the investment as short-term until the
takeover is accomplished, so that less attention will be directed to it. (Presently,
