               All section references are to the Internal Revenue Code for            
          the years under consideration.  All Rule references are to the Tax          
          Court Rules of Practice and Procedure.                                      
                                  FINDINGS OF FACT                                    
               Some of the facts have been stipulated and are so found.  The          
          stipulation of facts and the attached exhibits are incorporated             
          herein by this reference.                                                   
          Background                                                                  
               Petitioners, husband and wife, resided in Richmond, Virginia,          
          at the time they filed their petition.  Petitioners timely filed            


               1    The parties have stipulated that Mrs. Zfass was not               
          involved in the purchase of the partnership interest involved               
          herein and was unaware of the substantial understatements on the            
          1982 and 1983 tax returns.  Respondent concedes that Mrs. Zfass             
          is an innocent spouse for both years in issue and hence not                 
          liable for any of the additions to tax involved herein.
