          State and local taxes, a $1,310 capital loss, and a $22,924                 
          Schedule E loss.  Most of the Schedule E loss ($22,646) was                 
          attributable to petitioner and Mr. Bartak’s investment in the               
          Hoyt partnerships.  The total tax listed was $540.  The Federal             
          income tax withheld listed was $5,069.                                      
               On their joint income tax return for 1986, petitioner and              
          Mr. Bartak reported $57,108 in wages.  In arriving at total                 
          income, the only additions and subtractions were $11,123 in                 
          interest income, $279 in dividends, $1,389 in taxable refunds of            
          State and local taxes, and a $34,733 Schedule E loss.  Most of              
          the Schedule E loss ($34,195) was attributable to petitioner and            
          Mr. Bartak’s investment in the Hoyt partnerships.  The total tax            
          listed was $320.  The Federal income tax withheld listed was                
          $6,569.                                                                     
               Petitioner reviewed her joint returns page by page and she             
          looked at the items related to the Hoyt partnerships.  The large            
          losses associated with her investment in the Hoyt partnerships              
          did not surprise her.  Petitioner thought that the large                    
          deductions were the reason for investing in the Hoyt                        
          partnerships.  Mr. Bartak specifically explained to petitioner              
          the items on the 1983 return related to the Hoyt partnerships.              
               The Schedules K-1, Partner’s Share of Income, Credits,                 
          Deductions, etc., issued by Hoyt partnerships (SGE 1983-1 and TBS           
          #1) to petitioner and Mr. Bartak for 1983, 1984, 1985, and 1986
