                    Enclosed is my Power of Attorney.  Please see that                
               all further communication with the taxpayer regarding                  
               this matter is made through me.

          870-L(AD) on December 6, 1991.  Respondent assessed deficiencies            
          in income taxes attributable to the settlement of the Valley                
          Cable partnership items on December 3, 1992, as to the Rays'                
          taxable years 1983 and 1984.  Respondent assessed a deficiency in           
          income tax attributable to the settlement of the Valley Cable               
          partnership items on December 4, 1992, as to the Dominguezes'               
          taxable year 1983.  Respondent issued notices of deficiency dated           
          December 4, 1992, determining additions to tax attributable to              
          the Rays for the taxable years 1983 and 1984.  Respondent issued            
          a notice of deficiency dated December 4, 1992, determining                  
          additions to tax attributable to the Dominguezes for the taxable            
          year 1983.                                                                  
               On January 10, 1994, the Rays and Dominguezes each made a              
          payment in the amount of $5,000 to respondent, which was                    
          designated as a payment of income tax for the taxable year 1983.            
                                       OPINION                                        
               Under the TEFRA provisions, the tax treatment of partnership           
          items is decided at the partnership level in a unified                      
          partnership proceeding rather than separate proceedings for each            
          partner, Boyd v. Commissioner, 101 T.C. 365, 369 (1993), and                
          "affected items", items affected by the treatment of partnership            
          items (e.g., certain additions to tax), can only be assessed
