      The interim financial statements are unaudited
      but, in the opinion of management, reflect all
      adjustments necessary for the fair presentation
      of results for such periods.  The results of
      operations for any interim period are not
      necessarily indicative of results for the full
      year.  These financial statements should be read
      in conjunction with financial statements and
      notes thereto contained in the Company's annual
      report for the year ended December 31, 1997.

      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
      FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

      EARNINGS SUMMARY

         Interest Income

            For the three months ended March 31, 1998,  
            total  interest income increased by $244,000
            or 4.77% compared to the same period in 1997. 
            This increase is due to an increase of $483,000
            in interest and fees on loans and a decrease in 
            total interest and dividends on investments of 
            $239,000.

            The increase in interest and fees on
            loans of $244,000 was primarily due to 
            an increase in the loan volume during the first
            three months, ended March 31, 1998 of $3,112,000,
            and also due to loan fees and late charges collected.  
            Interest and dividends on investments
            decreased  due to the net effect of a $79,000 
            decrease in taxable interest, a $223,000 decrease
            in nontaxable interest and an increase in
            dividend income of $63,000.

         Interest Expense

            For the three months ended March 31, 1998
            total interest expense increased $51,000 or
            2.45% over the same period in 1997.  The
            increase in interest expense can be attributed
            to the interest paid on time deposits, due to the
            increase in volume of such deposits.  In
            addition, there was an increase in the amount of 
            interest paid on securities sold under repurchase
            agreements due to the increase in volume
            of these accounts.

         Provision for Loan Losses

            The provision for losses for the three
            months ended March 31, 1998  increased
            $15,000 from the corresponding period in
            1997.  This increase reflects an anticipated
            rise in consumer loan losses throughout the
            remainder of the year.

            As of the first quarter of 1998, charge offs
            exceeded recoveries by $70,000 compared to
            the first quarter of 1997 when recoveries
            exceeded charge offs by $6,000.  Provisions
            to date total $75,000 as compared to 
            provisions through March 31, 1997 of
            $60,000.

            Senior Management utilizes several
            different methods to determine the adequacy
            of the loan loss allowance and to establish
            quarterly provisions.  Among these methods
            is the analysis of the most recent five
            year average loss history, the coverage of
            non-performing loans provided by the
            allowance, an estimate of potential loss in
            homogeneous pools of loans and the internal
            credit rating assigned to watch and problem
            loans.

            In addition to the preceding, senior
            management also reviews macro portfolio
            risks such as the absence of
            concentrations, absence of foreign credit
            exposure and growth objectives in fine
            tuning the allowance and provisions.

            The ratio of non-accruing loans and those
            accruing but delinquent more than 90 days
            (collectively called "non-performing"
            loans) to the allowance for loan losses
            stood at .41 times at March 31, 1998 a slight
            decrease  in coverage from the .40 times at 
            December 31, 1997.   The increase in 
            non-performing loans occurred mainly in the 
            commercial loan portfolio.  Based upon this analysis
            as well as the others noted above, senior
            management has concluded that the allowance
            for loan losses is adequate.


         Other Operating Income

            Other operating income for the three months
            ended March 31, 1998 decreased $515,000.
            This decrease is due to the net effect of an
            increase in service charges collected of
            $54,000, a decrease in securities gains
            realized of $567,000 and a slight decrease in
            other income of $2,000. 

            The increase in service charges  was
            a result of an increase in service charges
            collected on deposit accounts. 
            The overall decrease in other operating
            income was primarily due to 
            the decrease in securities gains recognized of
            $567,000.  Realized gains were on sales
            of bonds that were sold in effort to better
            match the Bank's rate-sensitive assets and
            rate-sensitive liabilities given the current
            economic conditions.  In addition, gains
            were realized on partial sales of equity securities
            that have been in the portfolio long-term
            that had reached what management had
            determined to be their maximum potential.  

         Other Operating Expense

            For the three months ended March 31, 1998
            total other operating expenses increased $47,000
            over the same period in 1997.

            Employee salaries and benefits
            increased $23,000 as a result of increases in 
            salary levels and the hiring of additional employees.

            Occupancy expense increased $12,000 and 
            furniture and equipment expense increased
            $9,000.  The  increase in occupancy
            expense can be partially attributed to the
            opening of the Bank's Mortgage/Loan Center
            that was opened in State College, Pennsylvania  
            on July 7, 1997.  In addition, there was an 
            increase in the amount of maintenance an
            repairs expense incurred during the first 
            quarter of 1998 compared to the first quarter
            of 1997.

            The $9,000 increase in furniture and 
            equipment expense can be attributed mainly 
            to an increase in lease expense associated
            with the upgrading of the Bank's computer
            system.

            Expenses included under the other expenses
            heading are such items as:  advertising, postage,
            maintenance, FDIC, other insurance, 
            Pennsylvania State shares tax,
            legal and professional fees, telephone,
            printing and supplies and other general and
            administrative expenses.  An overall decrease
            in other expenses totalled $3,000.  

         Provision for Income Taxes

            Provision for income taxes for the three
            months ended March 31, 1998 resulted in an
            effective income tax rate of 26.05%
            compared to 26.43% for the corresponding
            period in 1997.  The decrease noted is
            primarily a result of the decrease in the amount
            of security gains included in taxable income.


         ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT

         Assets

           At  March 31, 1998, cash, federal funds sold, 
           and investment securities totalled
           $87,025,000, or a net decrease of $4,166,000
           over the corresponding balance at December 
           31, 1997.  Investment securities and cash
           decreased by $546,000 and $3,620,000, 
           respectively.  During this period, net loans 
           increased by $3,108,000 to $188,261,000.

          The decrease in investment securities from 
          December 31, 1997 to March 31, 1998 can be
          attributed to the net effect of various purchases and
          sales of investments during the first three months
          with the main transactions being in equity
          securities.

          Management evaluates credit risk,
          anticipated economic conditions and other
          relevant factors impacting the quality of
          the loan portfolio in order to establish an
          adequate loan-loss allowance.  An internal
          credit review committee monitors loans in
          accordance with Federal supervisory standards
          In addition, management frequently reviews and
          utilizes the results of examinations and reports
          provided by the committee, regulators, and 
          independent loan review consultants, on the
          adequacy of the loan loss allowance.
          
          Accordingly, on a quarterly basis,
          management determines an appropriate
          provision for possible loan losses from
          earnings in order to maintain allowance
          coverage relative to potential losses.

          The allowance for loan losses totalled
          $2,418,000 at March 31, 1998, a slight  increase of
          $4,000  over the balance at December 31,
          1997.  For the three months ended March 31, 1998,
          the provision for loan losses totalled
          $75,000.  As a percent of loans, the
          allowance for loan losses at March 31, 1998
          totalled 1.27% versus 1.29% at December 31,
          1997.

          Loans accounted for on a non-accrual basis
          totalled $650,000 and $552,000 at March 
          31, 1998 and December 31, 1997 respectively.

          Accruing loans, contractually delinquent 90
          days or more were $335,000 at March 31, 1998
          and $409,000 at December 31, 1997. 
          These loans are predominately secured by
          first lien mortgages on residential real
          estate where appraisal values mitigate any
          potential loss of interest and principal. 
          The ratio of non-accruing loans and those
          accruing but delinquent more than 90 days to
          the allowance for loan losses stood at .41
          times at  March 31, 1998 and  .40  times at
          December 31, 1997.  Presently the portfolio
          has no loans that meet the definition of
          "trouble debt restructurings" under FAS 15.

           A watch list of potential problem loans is
           maintained and updated quarterly by an
           internal credit review committee.  At this
           time there are no credits of substance that
           have the potential to become more than 90
           days delinquent.

           The Bank has not had nor presently has any
           foreign outstandings.  In addition, no known
           concentrations of credit presently exist.

           At  March 31, 1998 the balance of other real
           estate was $0 compared to $35,000 at
           December 31, 1997.  The property that was 
           being held in the account on December 31,
           1997 was sold in February, 1998.


         Deposits

           At  March 31, 1998  total deposits amounted to
           $220,488,000 representing a decrease of
           $48,000 or a .02% decrease from total
           deposits at December 31, 1997.

         Other Liabilities

           At March 31, 1998, other liabilities
           totalled $4,631,000 or a $620,000 increase
           over the balance at December 31, 1997. This
           increase is primarily due to an increase in 
           accrued taxes and accrued expenses.


           Capital

           The adequacy of the Company's capital is
           reviewed on an ongoing basis with reference
           to the size, composition and quality of the
           Company's resources and regulatory
           guidelines.  Management seeks to maintain a
           level of capital sufficient to support
           existing assets and anticipated asset
           growth, maintain favorable access to capital
           markets and preserve high quality credit
           ratings. The capital requirements of the
           Pennsylvania Department of Banking are 6%. 
           The capital requirements of the Federal
           Deposit Insurance Corporation are:

           1.  Regulatory capital to total assets 6%.

           2.  Primary capital to total assets 5 1/2%.

           At  March 31, 1998, regulatory capital to
           total assets was 15.79% compared to 15.13%
           at December 31, 1997.  Primary capital to
           total assets at March 31, 1998  was 16.64%
           compared to 15.98% at December 31, 1997.

           The Federal Reserve Board, the FDIC and the
           OCC have issued certain risk-based capital
           guidelines, which supplement existing
           capital requirements.  The guidelines
           require all United States banks and bank
           holding companies to maintain a minimum
           risk-based capital ratio of 8.00% (of which
           at least 4.00% must be in the form of common
           stockholders' equity).  Assets are assigned
           to five risk categories, with higher levels
           of capital being required for the categories
           perceived as representing greater risk. The
           required capital will represent equity and
           (to the extent permitted) nonequity capital
           as a percentage of total risk-weighted
           assets.  The risk-based capital rules are
           designed to make regulatory capital
           requirements more sensitive to differences
           in risk profiles among banks and bank
           holding companies and to minimize
           disincentives for holding liquid assets.

           Capital is being maintained in compliance
           with risk-based capital guidelines. 
           The Company's Tier 1 Capital to total risk
           weighted assets ratio is 21.11% and the
           total capital ratio to total risk weighted
           assets ratio is 22.36%.

          Liquidity and Interest Rate Sensitivity

           The asset/liability committee addresses the
           liquidity needs of the Bank to see that
           sufficient funds are available to meet
           credit demands and deposit withdrawals as
           well as to the placement of available funds
           in the investment portfolio.  In assessing
           liquidity requirements, equal consideration
           is given to the current position as well as
           the future outlook.

           The following liquidity measures are
           monitored and kept within the limits cited.

            1.  Net Loans to Total Assets,  70% maximum

            2.  Net Loans to Total Deposits, 85% maximum

            3.  Net Loans to Core Deposits, 90% maximum

            4.  Investments to Total Assets, 40% maximum

            5.  Investments to Total Deposits, 50% maximum

            6.  Total Liquid Assets to Total Assets, 25% minimum

            7.  Total Liquid Assets to Total Liabilities, 25% minimum

            8.  Volatility Liability Dependence Ratio, 10% maximum


        The Bank has maintained a liquidity level at or above the
        guidelines of the FDIC and the Pennsylvania Department
        of Banking.  The Bank has available to it Federal Funds
        lines of credit totalling $8,000,000 from correspondent banks.
        In addition, the Bank has an agreement with the Federal
        Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh that enables the Bank 
        to receive advances up to $86,732,000 for terms of 1
        to 120 days under the Federal Home Loan Bank's
         "Repo Plus" credit program. 

         All of the funding mentioned is available to the Bank,
         should the need for short-term funds arise.

        The following table sets forth the Bank's interest rate
        sensitivity as of March 31, 1998:



                                         AFTER ONE       AFTER TWO         AFTER

   (1) Investment balances reflect estimated prepayments
       on mortgage-backed securities.

   (2) Loan balances include annual repayment assumptions
       based on projected cash flow from the loan portfolio.
       The cash flow projections are based on the terms of
       the credit facilities and estimated prepayments on 
       fixed rate mortgage loans.  Loans include loans held
       for resale.

   (3) Adjustments to the interest sensitivity of Savings,
       NOW and MMDA account balances reflect managerial
       assumptions based on historical experience, 
       expected behavior in future rate environments and 
       the Bank's positioning for these products.

   (4) Net non-interest bearing funds is the sum of non-interest
       bearing liabilities and shareholders' equity minus
       non-interest earning assets and reflect managerial
       assumptions as to the appropriate investment
       maturities for these sources.

       In this analysis the company examines the result of a 100 and 200
       basis point change in market interest rates and the effect on net 
       interest income.  It is assumed that the change is instantaneous and 
       that all rates move in a parallel manner.  In addition, it is assumed        
       that rates on core deposit products such as NOW's, savings accounts, 
       and the MMDA accounts will  be adjusted by 50% of the assumed 
       rate change.  Assumptions are also made concerning prepayment
       speeds on mortgage loans and mortgage securities.  The results of 
       this rate shock are a useful tool to assist the Company in assessing 
       interest rate risk inherent in its balance sheet.  Below are the results 
       of this rate shock analysis as of March 31, 1998.

                                      Net Interest Income
            Change in Rates           Change (After tax)
                 -200                        $338
                 -100                        $187  
                 +100                       ($215) 
                 +200                       ($436)

        The model utilized to create the report presented above makes
        various  estimates at each level of interest rate change regarding
        cash flow from  principal repayment on loans and
        mortgage-backed securities and or  call activity on investment
        securities.  Actual results could differ  significantly from these
        estimates which would result in significant  differences in the
        calculated projected change.  In addition, the limits stated above
        do not necessarily represent the level of change under  which
        management would undertake specific measure to realign its             
        portfolio in order to reduce the projected level of change.

        Generally, management believes the Company is well positioned
        to respond expeditiously when the market interest rate outlook 
        changes.

     Inflation
            
        The asset and liability structure of a financial insitution is
        primarily monetary in nature, therefore, interest rates
        rather than inflation have a more significant impact on
        the Corporation's performance.  Interest rates are not always
        affected in the same direction or magnitude as prices of
        other goods and services, but are reflective of fiscal
        policy initiatives or economic factors which are not
        measured by a price index.


      Year 2000 Compliance; Management Information Systems
                
        The Bank utilizes software and related computer technologies 
        essential to its operations that will be effected by the
        Year 2000 issue.  In 1997, the Bank established a year
        2000 compliance committee to address the risks of the
        critical internal bank systems as well as external
        systems provided by third parties.  A comprehensive
        plan was developed detailing the sequence of events 
        and actions to be taken as the Year 2000 approaches.
        The year 2000 compliance expense and related potential
        effect on the Company's earnings cannot be determined
        by management at the present time.
