                                        - 4 -                                          

               (1) Whether the respective petitioners failed to report                 
          income from illegally received money or property in the taxable              
          years 1982 and 1983;5                                                        
               (2) whether the respective petitioners are liable for                   
          additions to tax for fraud under section 6653(b)(1) and (2) for              
          the years 1982 and 1983;6 and                                                
               (3) whether the respective petitioners are liable for the               
          addition to tax under section 6661 for 1982 and 1983.                        
                                   FINDINGS OF FACT                                    
               Some of the facts have been stipulated pursuant to Rule 91.             
          The parties' stipulations of fact are incorporated herein by                 
          reference and are found as facts in the instant cases.  At the               
          time their respective petitions were filed in the instant cases,             
          all petitioners resided in Pennsylvania.                                     



          4(...continued)                                                              
          settlement in which Ryan has conceded the issues presented in his            
          notice of deficiency, with the provision that the amounts of                 
          unreported income are to be adjusted on the basis of this Court's            
          opinion as to the amounts of income received by the other                    
          petitioners.  Such an adjustment is necessary because of                     
          respondent's protective position asserting that certain items of             
          income should be attributed to more than one petitioner.                     
          5    Each petitioner's liability for self-employment tax will be             
          a computational adjustment dependent on the outcome of this                  
          issue.  Petitioners do not argue against the application to them             
          of the self-employment tax per se, but that they did not receive             
          the underlying unreported income.                                            
          6    Resolution of this issue will determine whether the period              
          of limitations under sec. 6501 has expired.
