               During 1998, petitioner Keith T. Bowers was a construction             
          superintendent.  The amounts claimed by petitioners as                      
          miscellaneous deductions pertaining to petitioner Keith T.                  
          Bowers’s employment during 1998 and the amounts allowed by                  
          respondent are as follows:                                                  
                                             Claimed      Allowed                     
                    Uniforms                 $236           -0-

               With respect to the vehicle expenses pertaining to                     
          petitioner’s employment, it appears that these expenses were                
          incurred for transportation to and from petitioner’s National               
          Guard drills.  In this regard, petitioner presented a letter from           
          the adjutant of her guard unit stating that petitioner was not              
          entitled to reimbursement from the National Guard for “drill                
          mileage”.  Petitioner’s orders to go to Fort Rucker, Alabama, and           
          to proceed then to Clarksburg, West Virginia, provided that she             
          was entitled to reimbursement for her travel expenses, and there            
          is no evidence of other expenses pertaining to travel.                      
               Regarding the educational expenses, it appears that these              
          expenses were incurred by petitioner in 1997 and 1998 obtaining a           
          Bachelor of Arts Degree in History from the California State
