                         OPINION OF THE SPECIAL TRIAL JUDGE                           
               DEAN, Special Trial Judge:  This matter is before the Court            
          on respondent's Motion for Summary Judgment.  Respondent contends           
          that she is entitled to summary judgment on the ground there is             
          no genuine issue as to any material fact and a decision may be              
          entered as a matter of law.                                                 
          Background                                                                  
               On March 31, 1995, respondent issued a statutory notice of             
          deficiency to petitioner determining Federal income tax                     
          deficiencies and additions to tax as follows:                               

                                   Additions to Tax                                   
               Year   Deficiency   Sec. 6651(a)(1)     Sec. 6654                      
               1991     $6,725     $1,681              $79                            
               1992      8,662     2,166               378                            
               1993     22,523     5,631               942                            
               The deficiencies in petitioner's income taxes are based on             
          respondent's determination that petitioner failed to report a               
          number of items of income for the years 1991, 1992, and 1993,               
          including gross receipts from a trade or business, interest,                
          dividends, and proceeds from the sale or redemption of                      
          securities.                                                                 
               The addition to tax under section 6651(a)(1) is based on               
          respondent's determination that petitioner's failure to file                
          timely an income tax return for each of the years at issue was              
          not due to reasonable cause.  The addition to tax under section
