          expenses was not at issue.  Further, neither party herein relied            
          on nor even cited Kowalski.                                                 
               Lastly, by recharacterizing the travel expenses as                     
          deductible compensation for 1987 and later years, the portion of            
          the previously treated travel expenses that represented meal and            
          entertainment expenses become freed from the various percentage             
          limitations applicable thereto and become fully deductible.  See            
          sec. 274(n).  This is exactly what United is seeking to                     
          accomplish in this case for 1987.                                           
               For the reasons stated, I dissent.                                     
               COHEN and COLVIN, JJ., agree with this dissenting opinion.
