           1991     7,232            --                   1,446                       
               The issues remaining for decision are:2                                
               (1) Is petitioner entitled for the years at issue to any               
          deductions claimed for charitable contributions?  We hold that he           
          is not.                                                                     
               (2) Is petitioner entitled for 1990 and 1991 to any Schedule           
          C (Profit or Loss from Business) deductions claimed with respect            
          to TFC Engineering?  We hold that he is not.                                
               (3) Is petitioner entitled for 1989 to treat (a) certain               
          long-term capital losses from the sales of stocks as his losses,            
          (b) certain transactions as giving rise to nonbusiness bad debts,           
          and (c) certain stock as worthless?  We hold that he is not.                


          2  Respondent determined in the notice of deficiency (notice)               
          that petitioner is not entitled to the deduction for wages and              
          salaries of $7,633 claimed in Schedule E (Supplemental Income and           
          Loss) (1991 Schedule E) of his 1991 U.S. individual income tax              
          return (return) and that, consequently, he is not entitled to the           
          "total loss" of $6,951 claimed in that schedule, but instead has            
          1991 Schedule E total income of $682.  Petitioner concedes that             
          he is not entitled to a 1991 Schedule E deduction for wages and             
          salaries in the amount of $7,633 and that he does not have a 1991           
          Schedule E "total loss" of $6,951.  However, he claims with                 
          respect to his 1991 Schedule E (1) that, in addition to the other           
          expenses claimed in that schedule, he is entitled to deduct                 
          expenses for (a) contract labor and (b) automobile and travel of            
          $595 and $60, respectively, and (2) that he has "total income" of           
          $26.  In response to those claims, respondent states on brief:              
          "While respondent does not concede that petitioner is entitled to           
          rental expenses in the specific categories or in the specific               
          amounts now claimed, respondent will not dispute that petitioner            
          realized a Schedule E rental gain for 1991 in the amount of $26".           
          Since respondent does not dispute that petitioner has 1991 Sched-           
          ule E "total income" of $26, we shall not address petitioner's              
          contentions regarding the deductions to which he claims he is               
          entitled in arriving at that "total income" amount.
