<PAGE>






























                                   PART I
ITEM 1.  BUSINESS

         (a)   General Development of Business
         Bowl America Incorporated (herein referred to as the Company) was
incorporated in 1958.  The Company commenced business with one bowling center
in 1958, and at the end of the past fiscal year, the Company and its wholly-
owned subsidiaries operated 18 bowling centers.
         In February 2004 the Company purchased land in the Richmond, Virginia
area using funds received from the sale of Bowl America Silver Spring in
August 2003.  The sale and purchase are classified as a like-kind exchange,
effectively deferring the tax on $1.9 million of the $2.2 million gain on the
sale.  Building of a new 40 lane bowling center is expected to begin when all
permits have been received.  The center is expected to open in the first
quarter of fiscal year 2006.

         (b)   Financial Information about Industry Segments
         The Company operates in one segment.  Its principal source of
revenue consists of fees charged for the use of bowling lanes and other
facilities and from the sale of food and beverages for consumption on the
premises.  Merchandise sales, including food and beverages, were approximately
29% of operating revenues.  The balance of operating revenues (approximately
71%) represents fees for bowling and related services.

         (c)   Narrative Description of Business
         As of September 1, 2004 the Registrant and its subsidiaries operated
10 bowling centers in the greater metropolitan area of Washington, D.C., one
bowling center in the greater metropolitan area of Baltimore, Maryland, one
bowling center in Orlando, Florida, three bowling centers in the greater
metropolitan area of Jacksonville, Florida, and three bowling centers in the
greater metropolitan area of Richmond, Virginia.  These 18 bowling centers
contain a total of 716 lanes.
         These establishments are fully air-conditioned with facilities for
service of food and beverages, game rooms, rental lockers, and playroom
facilities.  All centers provide shoes for rental, and bowling balls are
provided free.  In addition, each center retails bowling accessories.  Most
locations are equipped for glow-in-the-dark bowling, popular for parties and
non-league bowling.
         The bowling equipment essential for the Company's operation is
readily available.  The major source of its equipment is Brunswick Corporation.
         The bowling business is a seasonal one, and most of the business takes
place from October through May.  It is highly competitive, but the Company has
managed to maintain its position in the field.  The principal method of
competition is the quality of service furnished to the Company's customers.
Its primary competitors are two large bowling equipment manufacturers,
Brunswick Corporation and AMF Bowling Worldwide, Inc.
         Compliance with federal, state and local environmental protection laws
has not materially affected the Company.
         The number of persons employed by the Company and its subsidiaries is
approximately 700.

         (d)   Foreign Operations

         The Company has no foreign operations.

                                   -1-
ITEM 2.  PROPERTIES

         The Company's general offices are located at 6446 Edsall Road,
Alexandria, Virginia 22312.  Two of the Company's bowling centers are located
in leased premises, and the remaining sixteen centers are owned by the Company.
The Company's leases expire from 2009 through 2014.  The specific locations of
the bowling centers are discussed under Item 1 (c).

ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

         There are no material pending legal proceedings other than ordinary
routine litigation incidental to the business.

ITEM 4.  SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

         No matters were submitted to a vote of security holders during the
fourth quarter ended June 27, 2004.

                                   PART II

ITEM 5.  MARKET FOR THE REGISTRANT'S COMMON STOCK, RELATED STOCKHOLDER
         MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES

         (a) The information set forth in the section entitled "Market
Information", "Holders", and "Dividends" on page 3 of the Company's June 27,
2004 Annual Report is incorporated by reference herein.
         (b) Not applicable
         (c) On June 21, 2004, the Registrant repurchased 801 shares of its
Class A Common Stock from one stockholder at a price of $14.20 per share.

ITEM 6.  SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

         The information set forth in the section entitled "Selected Financial
Data" on page 3 of the Company's June 27, 2004 Annual Report is incorporated by
reference herein.  Such information should be read in conjunction with the
audited financial statements.

ITEM 7.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         The information set forth in the section entitled "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" on
page 2 of the Company's June 27, 2004 Annual Report is incorporated by
reference herein.

ITEM 7a. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
         Interest Rate Risk.  Our short-term investments and certain cash
equivalents are subject to interest rate risk.  We manage this risk by
maintaining an investment portfolio of available-for-sale instruments with
high credit quality and relatively short average maturities.  The fair value
of marketable debt securities held was $11,681,729 and $9,505,678 at June 27,
2004 and June 29, 2003, respectively.  The fair value of certain fixed rate
debt securities will change depending on movements in interest rates.  Declines
in interest rates will affect our interest income.  Based on our portfolio of
debt securities at June 27, 2004, a 10% decline in the average yield would not
have a material impact on our interest income.
                                 -2-
ITEM 8.  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA

         The Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes thereto, the

         AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

         A Form 8-k dated May 12, 2004, confirming the change in the
Registrant's certifying accountants (Item 4) as reported on Form 8-K filed
April 6, 2004, was filed on May 17, 2004.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

         The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have
concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective
based on their evaluation of such controls and procedures as of June 27, 2004.
There were no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting
identified in connection with the evaluation that occurred during the fourth
quarter of the Company's fiscal year ended June 27, 2004 that has materially
affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal
control over financial reporting.

                           BOWL AMERICA INCORPORATED
                              PRESIDENT'S LETTER

September 20, 2004

Dear Fellow Owners:


WOW!!!

For the first time in ten years, we are building a bowling center from scratch.

This one is Irv Clark's baby from start to finish which gives us the feeling it
will be the best one we have ever built.  Located just north of Richmond, it is
in the center of a growing commercial area and will serve an expanding
population.  It will add to our standing as the best and oldest continually
operating bowling company in the Richmond area.

Good new locations are necessary to provide us as owners with real income from
our investment in Bowl America.  "Real" has meant that increases in our
dividends have more than offset inflation.  The record of 32 consecutive years
of dividend increases has enabled us to meet that objective without requiring
us to dispose of our Bowl America stock.

The word "increase" suggests building on something that existed before.  That
is fundamental to our approach.  While we generate great enthusiasm for each
new project, it is important that we continue to wisely use our existing assets.
Two of our most successful bowling centers today-Bowl America Shirley and Bowl
America Falls Church-were our first two bowling centers and are over forty
years old.  We try to capture the enthusiasm generated by new projects and
apply it broadly in the Company.  There is no return like the return on an
investment that is already paid for.

Location in any retail business is important, but we have always felt that
longevity flows from great customer service and great customer service flows
from people who enjoy what they do.  I have always been pleased that so many
of our employees are bowling enthusiasts.

You should note this will be the first bowling center we have ever built in
which the owners will get to keep half the profits generated from the business.
Prior to the recent reduction in dividend tax rates to 5% and 15%,
Bowl America owners had to pay $2.00 in taxes to keep $1.00 of the earnings
the Company generated.  This was the result of our relatively unsheltered
corporate tax rate combined with personal taxes on dividends.  That, of course,
isn't the end of it.  If you happen to die at a time when our market price
exceeds our per share retained earnings, the Government might extract an
amount greater than what the company earned on your behalf.

Relying on dividends to share our Company's success has a positive impact on
corporate governance.  The dividend has to have cash to support it.  Virtually
all of the financial misdeeds we have noted in the last few years have been
driven by an attempt to run up the price of a stock so that the perpetrators
could either borrow against it or sell it before the bubble burst.

Another group shares the need for price increases, but has an even shorter
horizon.  These are the so-called money managers, whether they be mutual funds,
pension funds or insurance companies, that are threatened with investor
defection it they didn't "match market performance".  It is ironic that all
the proposals for changing corporate governance would place more control into
this group's hands even though we now know they simply do not operate in the
interests of the real owners of the shares.  We can't justify overlaying an
"ownership economy" on the current foundation.

The combination of the fund managers with a next morning price horizon and
company managements required to spend their time on accounting minutia rather
than stimulating innovation and growth will probably eventually push us into
the European type of supervisory board of directors.  If that results in a 12%
unemployment rate here as it has elsewhere, we might hear it called "an
unforeseen consequence."  Of course, all those people with time on their hands
may want to go bowling.

                                        Leslie H. Goldberg, President

       MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
                             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
    Cash flow provided by operating activities in fiscal 2004 was $5,502,000
which was sufficient to meet day-to-day cash needs.  Short-term investments
consisting mainly of U.S. Treasury Notes and Bills, cash and cash equivalents
totaled $13,002,000 at the end of fiscal 2004 compared to $11,009,000 at the
end of fiscal 2003.
    In February 2004 the Company acquired land in Henrico County, Virginia.
Financing for the property was provided by the $2.3 million received from the
sale of the Silver Spring building and assignment of ground lease in August
2003.  The transaction completed a like-kind exchange under Section 1031 of
the Internal Revenue Code enabling taxes on approximately $2.0 million of the
$2.2 million gain on the sale of Silver Spring to be deferred.
    Although no building or equipment contracts for the location have been
signed, the Company is currently in the process of obtaining all necessary
permits to begin construction of a 40-lane bowling center at an estimated cost
of $5 million, which, barring unforeseen circumstances, is expected to open in
the first quarter of fiscal 2006.
    During fiscal year 2004, the Company expended approximately $1,000,000 for
the purchase of bowling and restaurant equipment and amusement games, continuing
to upgrade current facilities.  Approximately $689,000 of the funds were from
operating activities and the remaining $311,000 was provided by escrow funds
from the building sale.  The Company has signed purchase agreements totaling
approximately $860,000 to replace all remaining wooden bowling lanes and to
purchase bowling pins for the new season.
    The Company is actively seeking property for the development of new bowling
centers.  Cash and cash flows are sufficient to finance all contemplated
construction and purchases and to meet short-term purchase commitments and
operating lease commitments, detailed in the table below.  The Company's
holdings of marketable equity securities, primarily telecommunication stocks,
are an additional source of expansion capital.  These marketable securities are
carried at their fair value on the last day of the year.  The value of the
securities on June 27, 2004 was $4.0 million compared to approximately
$3.9 million at June 29, 2003.

    Cash dividends of $.52 per share, totaling $2.7 million were paid to
shareholders during the 2004 fiscal year making this the thirty-second
consecutive year of increased dividends per share.  In June 2004, the Company
declared a $.135 per share dividend that was paid in August 2004.  While no
factors calling for a change in the dividend rate are yet apparent, the Board
of Directors decides the amount and timing of any dividend at its quarterly
meeting based on its appraisal of the state of the business and estimate of
future opportunities.
    In May 2003, the Company ceased operating the Silver Spring facility after
entering into an agreement to sell the building.  Two leased locations were
closed during fiscal 2002.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
    Eighteen centers were in operation during 2004 while nineteen centers were
in operation during the peak season of fiscal 2003.  In the comparable fiscal
2002 season, twenty locations were operating.  The changes in the number of
centers in operation affected all income, expense and comparisons for the
periods presented in this report.  Fiscal years 2004, 2003 and 2002 each
consisted of 52 weeks.
    Operating revenues excluding the $2.2 million gain on the sale of Silver
Spring, mentioned above, decreased by $942,000 or 3% in fiscal 2004.  Bowling
and other revenue declined 2%.  However, at comparable locations, this category
of revenue was up slightly as an increase in the average game rate helped to
offset the decrease in games bowled.
    Food, beverage and merchandise sales decreased 6% in the current year
primarily as a result of the closing of Silver Spring and the end of the full
service restaurant operation at Gaithersburg.  The change resulted in increased
profitability as costs declined at a higher rate than the decline in sales.
The Company established a website for the sale of merchandise directly to
consumers.
    In fiscal 2003 operating revenues decreased by 2% overall and like
percentages in both the bowling and other and food, beverage and merchandise
sales categories.  During fiscal 2003 winter snowstorms caused the closing of
all locations in the Company's northern market although the fourth quarter
benefited from league play make-up games and rainy weather.
    Total operating expense decreased approximately $724,000 or 3% in the
current year and 1% in the prior year.  Costs for employee compensation and
benefits were down $287,000 or 2% in the current year although group health
insurance costs were up $49,000 or 10% over the prior year period.  In the
current year employees benefited from the gain on the sale of Silver Spring as
the Company's contribution to the profit-sharing and employee stock ownership
plans increased by $86,000 or 30% over the prior year.  In the prior year
employee compensation and benefit costs were flat despite a 12% increase in
health insurance premiums.
    Maintenance costs decreased 9% in the current year after an increase of 7%
in fiscal year 2003.  This year no lanes were resurfaced as the remaining wooden
lanes are being replaced by plastic overlays.  Lanes at several centers were
resurfaced last year.  Snow removal costs were also responsible for the prior
year increase.
    Supplies expenses were up 5% in fiscal 2004 and down 1% in the prior fiscal
year.   Advertising costs were up 17% in the current year primarily from
campaigns to increase awareness of our websites and facilities for corporate
outings.  Last year advertising costs were up 3%.  Utility costs declined
slightly in fiscal 2004 compared to a 6% decrease in the prior year.
    Rent expense decreased 2% in the current year and 19% in the prior year
primarily as a result of fewer leased locations in operation.  Insurance
expense, excluding health and life, was down 8% in fiscal 2004 as the market
softened.  In the prior year insurance costs increased 15%.
    Depreciation expenses decreased by $81,000 and $151,000 or 5% and 8% in
fiscal 2004 and 2003, respectively.  Large assets reaching full depreciation and
fewer locations in operation were responsible for the decreases in both years.
    Interest and dividend income declined from the prior year.  The 14% increase
in common stock dividends received was more than offset by the lower interest
rates on debt securities.
    Effective income tax rates for the Company were 37.4% for fiscal 2004,
35.9% in 2003 and 36.1% in 2002, the difference from statutory rates being
primarily for the partial exclusion of dividends received on investments and
the state tax exemption for interest on U.S. Government obligations.  For fiscal
2004, although the tax on the gain from the sale of Silver Spring is deferred,
it is accounted for at current effective tax rates as required by accounting
standards.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
    We have identified accounting for marketable investment securities under
SFAS 115 "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" as
a critical accounting policy due to the significance of the amounts included
in our balance sheet under the captions of Short-term investments and Marketable
equity securities.  The Company exercises judgment in determining the
classification of its investment securities as available-for-sale and in
determining their fair value.  The Company records these investments at their
fair value with the unrealized gain or loss recorded in accumulated other
comprehensive income, a component of stockholders' equity, net of deferred
taxes.  Additionally, from time to time the Company must assess whether
write-downs are necessary for other than temporary declines in value.

                   BOWL AMERICA INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.  ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization
    Bowl America Incorporated is engaged in the operation of 18 bowling
centers, with food and beverage service in each center.  Ten centers are
located in metropolitan Washington D.C., one center in metropolitan
Baltimore, Maryland, one center in metropolitan Orlando, Florida, three
centers in metropolitan Richmond, Virginia, and three centers in metropolitan
Jacksonville, Florida.  These 18 centers contain a total of 716 lanes.
The Company operates in one segment.

Principles of Consolidation
    The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and all of its wholly owned subsidiary corporations.  All significant inter-
company items have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.

Fiscal Year
    The Company's fiscal year ends on the Sunday nearest to June 30.  Fiscal
year 2004 ended June 27, 2004, fiscal year 2003 ended June 29, 2003, and fiscal
year 2002 ended June 30, 2002.  Fiscal years 2004, 2003 and 2002 each consisted
of 52 weeks.

Estimates
    The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
requires management to make estimates and assumptions.  These estimates and
assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period.  Actual results may differ from those estimates.  Significant
estimates include the deferred compensation liability for executives and key
employees including survivor benefits, cash surrender value of officers' life
insurance, the Federal and State income taxes (current and deferred), and
market assumptions used in estimating the fair value of certain assets such as
marketable securities.

Revenue Recognition
    The Company records revenue for fees charged for use of bowling lanes and
other facilities at the time the services are provided.  Food, beverage and
merchandise sales are recorded as revenue at the time the product is given to
the customer.

Depreciation and Amortization
    Depreciation and amortization for financial statement purposes are
calculated by use of the straight-line method.  Amortization of leasehold
improvements is calculated over the estimated useful life of the asset or
term of the lease, whichever is shorter.  The categories of property, plant,
and equipment and the ranges of estimated useful lives on which depreciation
and amortization rates are based are as follows:

              Bowling lanes and equipment             3-10 years
              Building and building improvements     10-39 years
              Leasehold improvements                    10 years
              Amusement games                          3-5 years

    Maintenance and repairs and minor replacements are charged to expense when
incurred.  Major replacements and betterments are capitalized.  The accounts
are adjusted for the sale or other disposition of property, and the resulting
gain or loss is credited or charged to income.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
    The Company reviews long-lived assets whenever events or changes indicate
that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  In making such
evaluations, the Company compares the expected future cash flows to the
carrying amount of the assets.  An impairment loss, equal to the difference
between the assets' fair value and carrying value, is recognized when
the estimated future cash flows are less that the carrying amount.

Inventories
    Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method)
or market.

Income Taxes
    Income taxes are accounted for in accordance with Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 109, "Accounting for Income
Taxes".  Under this method, deferred income tax liabilities and assets
are based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases
of assets and liabilities, using tax rates currently in effect. A valuation
allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that a deferred tax
asset will not be realized.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
    The fair value of short-term investments and the non-current marketable
security portfolio is disclosed in Note 4.

Investment Securities
    The Company accounts for its investments in accordance with SFAS No. 115
"Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities".  All of
the Company's readily marketable debt and equity securities are classified as
available-for-sale.  Accordingly these securities are recorded at fair value
with any unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported, net
of deferred taxes, within a separate component of stockholders' equity until
realized.  Realized gains or losses on the sale of debt and equity securities
are reported in earnings and determined using the adjusted cost of the
specific security sold.

Earnings Per Share
    Earnings per share basic and diluted, have been calculated using the
weighted average number of shares of Class A and Class B common stock
outstanding of 5,138,559,  5,145,934 and 5,132,083, for fiscal years 2004,
2003 and 2002, respectively, and have been adjusted to reflect the 5% stock
dividend distributed on July 26, 2001.

Comprehensive Earnings
    In accordance with SFAS No. 130 "Reporting Comprehensive Income",  a
consolidated statement of comprehensive earnings reflecting the aggregation
of net earnings and unrealized gain or loss on available-for-sale securities,
the Company's principal components of other comprehensive earnings, has been
presented for each of the three years in the period ended June 27, 2004.
                                 -8-

Cash and Cash Equivalents
    For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company
considers money market funds, certificates of deposits, repurchase agreements
and treasury securities with original maturities of three months or less to be
cash equivalents.  The Company maintains cash accounts which may exceed
Federally insured limits during the year, but does not believe that this
results in any significant credit risk.

Assets Held for Sale
    The Company accounts for assets held for sale at the lower of cost or fair
value less costs to sell in accordance with the criteria for SFAS No. 144
"Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets."  Assets held
for sale are not depreciated.

Other Current Liabilities
    Other current liabilities include prize fund monies held by the Company
for bowling leagues.  The funds are returned to the leagues at the end of the
league bowling season.  At June 27, 2004, and June 29, 2003 other current
liabilities included $328,014, and $352,800, respectively, in prize fund monies.

Reclassifications
     Certain previous year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the
current year presentation.


2.  CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
    Cash and cash equivalents consisted of the following:

                                              June 27,        June 29,

                                            $1,320,643      $1,503,313

3.  ASSETS HELD FOR SALE AND GAIN ON SALE
    In March 2003, the Company entered into an agreement to sell the Silver
Spring building and assign the ground lease for $2.3 million subject to
certain conditions precedent to final closing.  The facility is classified as
Assets Held for Sale at June 29, 2003 and is carried at its net book value of
$117,948.  On August 25, 2003, the Company consummated the final closing of
the sale and recorded the gain on the sale of the building.  The sale was part
of a tax free exchange under 1031 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code and, as
such, the taxable gain on the sale is deferred.  The operating results of the
bowling center along with a $2,168,117 gain, have been recorded as part of net
gain on sale of building in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

4.  INVESTMENTS
    Short-term investments consist of certificates of deposits, U.S. Treasury
securities and a mutual fund which invests in mortgage backed securities
(maturities of generally three months to one year).   At June 27, 2004, the
fair value of short-term investments was $11,681,729 with an unrealized loss of
$89,923.  At June 29, 2003, the fair value of short-term investments was
$9,505,678 with an unrealized gain of $56,875.  Non-current investments are
marketable equity securities which consist primarily of telecommunications
stocks.  The Company has classified all readily marketable debt and equity
securities as available-for-sale.  These available-for-sale securities
are carried at fair value in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 115.

     The following table summarizes the cost and approximate fair values of
equity securities available-for-sale as of June 27, 2004, and June 29, 2003

6.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Lease Commitments
    The Company and its subsidiaries are obligated under long-term real estate
lease agreements for two bowling centers.  Certain of the Company's real
estate leases provide for additional annual rents based upon total gross
revenues and increases in real estate taxes and insurance.

     At June 27, 2004, the minimum fixed rental commitments related to all
non-cancelable leases, were as follows:

           Year Ending

7.  STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
    The Class A shares have one vote per share voting power.  The Class B
shares may vote ten votes per share and are convertible to Class A shares at
the option of the stockholder.

    At June 27, 2004 and June 27, 2003, the Company had $41,956 in employee
loans related to the issuance of shares.  These loans are secured by the shares
of the Company's common stock acquired and are full recourse notes.  The notes
bear interest at rates of 5% to 6 1/2% and are payable over a term of three
years from the date of the agreements which range from 2002 to 2004.  These
employee loans have been recorded as a reduction of additional paid-in capital.

    The Company distributed a 5% stock dividend on July 26, 2001, where
Class A and B stockholders received one share of common stock for each
twenty shares of Class A and Class B common stock held as of the date of record.

8.  PROFIT-SHARING AND ESOP PLAN
    The Company has a profit-sharing plan which, generally, covers all
individuals who were employed at the end of the fiscal year and had one
thousand or more hours of service during that fiscal year.  The Plan provides
for Company contributions as determined by the Board of Directors.  For the
years ended June 27, 2004, June 29, 2003, and June 30, 2002, contributions in
the amount of $188,000, $145,000, and $165,000, respectively, were charged to
operating expense.

    Effective March 31, 1987, the Company adopted an Employee Stock Ownership
Plan (ESOP) which generally covers all employees who on the last day of the
fiscal year or December 29 have been employed for one year with at least one
thousand hours of service.  The Plan provides for Company contributions as
determined by the Board of Directors.  Prior to fiscal year 1995, the
contributions were allocated to participants based on compensation and years
of service.  Contributions since fiscal year 1995 are allocated based on
compensation only in order to comply with Internal Revenue Service code
requirements.  The value of the Company's contributions to the Plan for fiscal
years 2004, 2003, and 2002 was $188,000, $145,000, and $162,600, respectively.

9.  INCOME TAXES
    The significant components of the Company's deferred tax assets and
liabilities were as follows:
                                                June 27,         June 29,

            Prepaid expenses                    191,619          198,000
            Other                               (42,944)         (95,000)
                                              _________        _________
         Deferred tax liabilities            $2,703,849       $1,842,200

    Income tax expense differs from the amounts computed by applying the U.S.
Federal income tax rate to income before tax for the following reasons:
