ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


The following is Management's discussion and analysis of certain
significant factors which have affected the Company's earnings during the
periods included in the accompanying consolidated condensed statements of
income.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

FIRST QUARTER COMPARISON 2001 vs. 2000


Net sales were $18,496,000 in the first quarter of 2001 as compared to
$17,575,000 in the first quarter of 2000 an increase of $921,000 or 5.2%. Net
sales of sporting goods increased $1,711,000 or 19.0% and net sales of office
and graphic arts decreased $790,000 or 9.2%.

Of the increase in sporting goods net sales 65% was in game parlor
products and the remaining 35% was spread over archery, basketball and darts.
The increase in game parlor products was in imported game tables and the
increases in basketball and darts was in product from recent acquisitions. The
decrease in office and graphic arts net sales is believed to be mainly due to
the slowing economy causing a decrease in the incoming order rate.

Cost of sales was $12,710,000 in the first quarter of 2001 as compared
to $11,578,000 in the first quarter of 2000, an increase of $1,132,000 or 9.8%.

Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales was 68.7% in the first
quarter of 2001 as compared to 65.9% in the first quarter of 2000. Sporting
goods cost of sales as a percentage of net sales increased 2.0% and office and
graphic arts cost of sales as a percentage of net sales decreased .7%. Sporting
goods cost of sales increase was mainly due to a shift in sales to less
profitable product lines (import game tables). Office and graphic arts cost of
sales decrease was mainly due to a reduction in factory expenses.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $4,060,000 in the
first quarter of 2001 as compared to $3,858,000 in the first quarter of 2000, an
increase of $202,000 or 5.2%.

Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net
sales was 21.9% in the first quarter of 2001 and 2000.

Interest expense increased $83,000 to $317,000 in 2001 from $234,000
in 2000, an increase of 35.5% due to higher average borrowing levels.

The effective income tax rate for the first quarter of 2001 was 37.5%
as compared to 42.4% in 2000.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's net cash provided by operating activities was $8,825,000
in the first quarter of 2001 as compared to $11,090,000 in the first quarter of
2000. Most of the cash provided by operating activities was from collection of
the year end accounts receivable during the first quarter. The net accounts
receivable balance at the end of the year was $26,406,000 and at the end of the
first quarter the net accounts receivable balance was $13,600,000. The Company's
net cash used for investing activities was $2,307,000 in the first quarter of
2001 as compared to $1,269,000 in the first quarter of 2000. $1,966,000 of the
cash used in 2001 was for the purchase of certain assets of Accudart. The
Company's net cash used by financing activities was $7,317,000 in the first
quarter of 2001 as compared to $11,570,000 in the first quarter of 2000. The
cash used by financing activities was for the pay down of bank debt. At the end
of the year, the bank debt was $25,967,000 and at the end of the first quarter
the bank debt was $18,634,000.

The Company's working capital requirements are currently funded by
