          Supinski tried to persuade petitioner to invest the $246,647.68             
          cash distribution in certain financial products and to include              
          them in the IRA.  Petitioner advised Mr. Supinski that he was               
          going to handle the cash distribution himself and set up his own            
          IRA.                                                                        
               On August 17, 1990, petitioner deposited $239,641.91 in                
          money market account No. 9 at the credit union, and he retained             
          the $7,005.77 difference (between the distribution and the                  
          deposit).  On February 20, 1992, petitioners withdrew $139,126              
          from account No. 9 and deposited it into a qualified IRA with               
          Charles Schwab & Co., Inc.  Prior to the February 20, 1992,                 
          transaction, petitioners had withdrawn a total of $196,919.68               
          from account No. 9.  Of the $196,919.68, $101,475.21 was                    
          redeposited into petitioners' regular share account with the                
          credit union, account No. 1.  In addition, $50,000 of the                   
          $196,919.68 was withdrawn on August 21, 1990, and used by                   
          petitioners in connection with the building of their home.                  
          Petitioners did not report any portion of the Plan distribution             
          or credit union withdrawals as income on their 1990 Federal                 
          income tax return.  Petitioners, for 1990, also failed to report            
          $1,971 of income from Prudential Insurance Co. and $18 of                   
          interest income from Great American Bank.                                   
               By a letter dated June 27, 1991, the Kansas bank                       
          acknowledged receiving petitioner's documents with which to open            
          an IRA, but advised that "Liquidating Trust Certificates" had not
