          Sullivan went out to lunch weekly or biweekly with petitioner;              
          most of the time Chemical Bank paid for the lunches, sometimes              
          petitioner paid.  After Sullivan left Chemical Bank, the few                
          times he had lunch with petitioner, petitioner paid for the                 
          lunch.  Sullivan never had dinner with petitioner.  Sullivan does           
          not know many of the restaurants at which petitioner’s diary                
          shows that he ate with petitioner.  Sullivan does not know some             
          of the people petitioner’s diary shows as having shared a meal              
          with him and petitioner.                                                    
               In addition to his diary, petitioner presented the bottom              
          perforated portion of restaurant checks (hereinafter sometimes              
          collectively referred to as the stubs) as substantiation for his            
          meals expenses.  Less than half the stubs have the name of the              
          restaurant imprinted on them.  On most of the stubs there is a              
          name of a restaurant, a month and day but not a year, and an                
          amount, handwritten in pencil.  Petitioner wrote the handwritten            
          information on most, if not all, of the stubs that have                     
          handwritten information.                                                    
               Table 1 shows the information recorded in petitioner’s diary           
          about meals at Frank’s Steaks in 1987.  All of these meals are              
          shown in the diary as dinners.
