                                        - 2 -                                         
          under section 6651(a)(2) of $445.49, and an addition to tax under           
          section 6654(a) of $132.49.  After concessions,2 there are three            
          issues remaining for decision:                                              
               (1)  Whether petitioner is entitled to a dependency                    
          exemption deduction under section 151(c) for his daughter.  We              
          hold that he is not;                                                        
               (2)  whether petitioner is entitled to a deduction for                 
          itemized expenses in an amount greater than the standard                    
          deduction.  We hold that he is not;                                         
               (3)  whether petitioner is liable for the addition to tax              
          under section 6651(a)(1) for failing to file a return.  We hold             
          that he is.                                                                 
                                  FINDINGS OF FACT                                    
               Some of the facts have been stipulated and are so found.               
          The stipulated facts and the accompanying exhibits are                      
          incorporated herein by this reference.                                      
               Petitioner resided in Mebane, North Carolina, at the time he           
          filed his petition.                                                         




               2 The parties agree that petitioner received $44,883.20 of             
          gross income in 2003.  Respondent concedes that petitioner is not           
          liable for the addition to tax under sec. 6651(a)(2) or sec.                
          6654.  Respondent also concedes that petitioner is entitled to              
          deduct a portion of his medical and dental expenses and taxes               
          paid, although those concessions would not allow petitioner                 
          itemized deductions in an amount greater than the standard                  
          deduction.
