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



GENERAL


     HF Financial Corp. ("Company") was incorporated under the laws of the State
of Delaware in November 1991 for the purpose of owning all of the outstanding
stock of Home Federal Savings Bank ("Bank") issued in the mutual to stock
conversion of the Bank.  The Company acquired all of the stock of the Bank on
April 8, 1992.  In October 1994, the Company acquired and began operating a new
mortgage subsidiary as HomeFirst Mortgage Corp. ("Mortgage Corp."). In May, 1996
the Company formed a Limited Liability Company named HF Card Services L.L.C.
("HF Card Services") and became the owner of 51% of this entity. The activities
of the Company itself have no significant impact on the results of operations on
a consolidated basis.  Unless otherwise indicated, all activities discussed
herein relate to the Company, and its direct and indirect subsidiaries,
including without limitation, the Bank, HF Card Services and the Mortgage Corp.

     HomeFirst Mortgage Corp. is a South Dakota Corporation which had an office
in Omaha, Nebraska.  The Mortgage Corp. was a mortgage banking operation that
originated one-to-four family residential loans which were sold into the
secondary market and to the Bank.  The Company  ceased operation of Homefirst
Mortgage Corp. during the first quarter of fiscal 1998.

     HF Card Services was established to provide secured, partially-secured and
unsecured credit cards nationwide.  The target market for HF Card Services is
sub-prime credit customers who have either an insufficient credit history or a
negative credit history and are unable to obtain a credit card from more
traditional card issuers.

     The Company's net income is primarily dependent upon the difference (or
"spread") between the average yield earned on loans, mortgage-backed securities
and investments and the average rate paid on deposits and borrowings, as well as
the relative amounts of such assets and liabilities.  The interest rate spread
is affected by regulatory, economic and competitive factors that influence
interest rates, loan demand and deposit flows.  The Company, like other
financial institutions, is subject to interest rate risk to the degree that its
interest-bearing liabilities mature or reprice at different times, or on a
different basis, than its interest-earning assets.  To better insulate itself
from such risk, the Company has, over the last few years, attempted to increase
both numerically and on a percentage basis its holding of consumer and
commercial loans.  The Company has also decreased its ratio of fixed-rate to
adjustable-rate loans. The Company's net income is also affected by, among other
things, gains and losses on sales of foreclosed property, loans, mortgage-backed
securities and securities available for sale, provisions for loan losses,
service charge fees, subsidiary activities, operating expenses and income taxes.

     THIS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS CONTAINS CERTAIN FORWARD-LOOKING TERMINOLOGY
SUCH AS "BELIEVES," "ANTICIPATES," "WILL," AND "INTENDS," OR COMPARABLE
TERMINOLOGY.  SUCH STATEMENTS ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
THAT COULD CAUSE ACTUAL RESULTS TO DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM THOSE PROJECTED.
POTENTIAL PURCHASERS OF THE COMPANY'S SECURITIES ARE CAUTIONED NOT TO PLACE
UNDUE RELIANCE ON SUCH FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS WHICH ARE QUALIFIED IN THEIR
ENTIRETY BY THE CAUTIONS AND RISKS DESCRIBED HEREIN AND IN OTHER REPORTS FILED
BY THE COMPANY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION.


FINANCIAL CONDITION DATA

         At  September 30, 1997, the Company had total assets of $574.9 
million, an increase of $12.8 million from the level at June 30, 1997.  The 
increase in assets was due primarily to an increase in securities available 
for sale of $12.7 million and cash and cash equivalents of $2.4 million. The 
increase in securities available for sale, and cash and cash equivalents was 
funded primarily by a decrease in mortgage-backed securities of $1.3 million, 
an increase in deposits of $16.4 million and an increase in advances by 
borrowers for taxes and insurance of $2.7 million from the levels at June 30, 
1997.  The remaining excess funds received from the mortgage-backed 
securities, deposits and advances by borrowers for taxes and insurance were 
used to paydown advances from Federal Home Loan Bank and other borrowings by 
$7.0 million from levels at June 30, 1997.   In addition, stockholders' 
equity increased from $53.0 million at June 30,


                                        Page 7
<PAGE>

1997 to $54.2 million at September 30, 1997, primarily due to net income of 
$1.7 million and the change in the net unrealized loss on securities 
available for sale of $207,000, which was offset by the payment of cash 
dividends of $314,000 to the Company's stockholders and an increase in 
treasury stock of $488,000.

     The decrease in mortgage-backed securities of $1.3 million was primarily
the result of amortizations and prepayments of principal exceeding purchases.
The Bank had no purchases of mortgage-backed securities during the three months
ended September 30, 1997.

     The increase in securities of $12.7 million from the level at June 30, 1997
is primarily due to purchases of $18.6 million exceeding sales and maturities of
securities available for sale of $6.0 million during the three months ended
September 30, 1997.

     The $16.4 million increase in deposits was primarily due to an increase in
savings accounts of $20.2 million, an increase in checking accounts of $6.3
million, and an increase in money market accounts of $3.0 million which were
partially offset by a decrease in certificates of deposit of $13.1 million.  In
July and August 1997, the Bank received deposits of approximately $38.0 million
from local governmental entities which requires a pledge of collateral of 110%
of the deposits.  The Bank subsequently pledged debt and mortgage-backed
securities to meet this requirement.

     Advances from the FHLB and other borrowings decreased $7.0 million for the
three month period ended September 30, 1997 primarily due to the payment of
$12.0 million on advances and other borrowings during the three month period
ended September 30, 1997. These advances were partially offset by the Company
obtaining $5.0 million of advances and borrowings for liquidity management and
to fund loans.

     The $2.7 million increase in advances by borrowers for taxes and insurance
was due primarily to the receipt of escrow payments in excess of amounts paid
out.  The major escrow payments are primarily paid semiannually in April and
October.

ANALYSIS OF NET INTEREST INCOME

     Net interest income represents the difference between income on
interest-earning assets and expense on interest-bearing liabilities.  Net
interest income depends upon the volume of interest-earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities and the interest rate earned or paid on them.

     AVERAGE BALANCES, INTEREST RATES AND YIELDS.  The following table presents
for the periods indicated the total dollar amount of interest income from
average interest-earning assets and the resulting yields, as well as the
interest expense on average interest-bearing liabilities, expressed both in
dollars and rates, and the net interest margin.  The table does not reflect any
effect of income taxes.  All average balances are monthly average balances and
include the balances of nonaccruing loans.  The yields and costs for
the three month period September 30, 1997 and 1996 include fees which are
considered adjustments to yield.

RATE/VOLUME ANALYSIS OF NET INTEREST INCOME

     The following schedule presents the dollar amount of changes in interest
income and interest expense for major components of interest-earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities.  It distinguishes between the increases and
decreases due to fluctuating outstanding balances that are due to the levels and
volatility of interest rates.  For each category of interest-earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities, information is provided on changes attributable to
(i) changes in volume (i.e., changes in volume multiplied by old rate) and (ii)
changes in rate (i.e., changes in rate multiplied by old volume).  For purposes
of this table, changes attributable to both rate and volume, which cannot be
segregated, have been allocated proportionately to the change due to volume and
the change due to rate.

    (1)  Nonperforming loans includes nonaccruing loans and loans delinquent
         more than 90 days.

    (2)  Percentage is calculated based upon total assets of the Company, the
         Bank, HF Card Services and the Mortgage Corp. on a consolidated basis.

    (3)   Nonperforming assets includes nonaccruing loans, accruing loans
          delinquent more than 90 days and foreclosed assets.

    When a loan becomes 90 days delinquent, the Bank places the loan on a
non-accrual status and, as a result, accrued interest income on the loan is
taken out of income.  Future interest income is recognized on a cash basis.  The
loan will remain on a non-accrual status until the borrower has brought the loan
current.

    Nonperforming assets increased to $2.8 million at September 30, 1997 from
$1.8 million at June 30, 1997, an increase of $931,000.  In addition, the ratio
of nonperforming assets to total assets, which is one indicator of credit risk
exposure, increased to 0.48% at September 30, 1997 from 0.41% at June 30, 1997.

    Nonaccruing loans increased to $2.5 million at September 30, 1997 from $1.3
million at June 30, 1997, an increase of $1.2 million. Included in nonaccruing
loans at September 30, 1997 were 39 loans totaling $1.5 million secured by one-
to four-family real estate, nine mobile home loans totaling $135,000, four
commercial business loans totaling $353,000 and forty-five consumer loans
totaling $514,000.  For the three months ended September 30, 1997, gross
interest income of $160,000 would have been recognized on loans accounted for on
a non-accrual basis had such loans been current in accordance with their
original terms.  Gross interest income of $5,000 was recognized as income on
loans accounted for on a non-accrual basis.

    Foreclosed assets decreased to $320,000 at September 30, 1997 from $593,000
at June 30, 1997, a decrease of $273,000.

    At September 30, 1997, the Bank had approximately $7.1 million of other
loans of concern that management has determined need to be closely monitored
because of possible credit problems of the borrowers or the cash flows of the
secured properties.  These loans were considered in determining the adequacy of
the allowance for possible loan losses.  The allowance for possible loan losses
is established based on management's evaluation of the risks inherent in the
loan portfolio and changes in the nature and volume of loan activity.  Such
evaluation, which includes a review of all loans for which full collectability
may not be reasonably assured, considers the estimated fair market value of the
underlying collateral, economic conditions, historical loan loss experience and
other factors that warrant recognition in providing for an adequate loan loss
allowance.  Although the Bank's management believes that the September 30, 1997
recorded allowance for loan losses was adequate to provide for potential losses
on the related loans, there can be no assurance that the allowance existing at
September  30, 1997 will be adequate in the future.

    The allowance for loan losses was $4.8 million at September 30, 1997 as
compared to $4.2 million at September  30, 1996.    The ratio of the allowance
for losses on loans to total loans was 1.08% at September 30, 1997 and 0.98% at
September 30, 1996.  The Bank's management has considered nonperforming assets
and other assets of concern in establishing the allowance for losses on loans.
The Bank will continue to monitor its allowance for possible loan losses and
make future additions or reductions in light of the level of loans in its
portfolio and as economic conditions dictate.

     The allowance for possible losses on loans is maintained at a level which
is considered by management to be adequate to absorb possible loan losses on
existing loans that may become uncollectible, based on an evaluation of the
collectability of loans and prior loan loss experience.  The evaluation takes
into consideration such factors as changes in the nature and volume of the loan
portfolio, overall portfolio quality, review of specific problem loans, and
current economic conditions that may affect the borrower's ability to pay.  The
allowance for possible loan losses is established through a provision for
possible loan losses charged to expense.

COMPARISON OF THE THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1997 AND SEPTEMBER 30, 1996

     GENERAL.  The Company's net income increased $2.1 million to $1.7 million
for the three months ended September 30, 1997 as compared to a loss of $378,000
for the three months ended September 30, 1996.  As discussed in more detail
below, this increase was due primarily to the decrease in noninterest expense of
$2.0 million and an increase in noninterest income of $1.1 million which were
partially offset by an increase in income tax expense of $1.2 million.

     INTEREST INCOME.  Interest income increased $857,000 from $11.1 million for
the three months ended September 30, 1996 to $12.0 million for the three months
ended September 30, 1997.  This increase was primarily due to an increase in
interest earned on interest earning assets and an increase in the average
balance of interest earnings assets.  The average yield on interest earning
assets increased from 8.45%  to 8.65% and the average balance of interest
earning assets increased $27.0 million when comparing the three months ended
Septemer 30, 1997 to the same period in the prior fiscal year.

     INTEREST EXPENSE.  Interest expense increased $378,000 from $6.3 million
for the three months ended September 30, 1996 to $6.7 million for the three
months ended September 30, 1997.  This increase was largely attributable to an
increase in average rates paid on interest bearing liabilities and an increase
in the average balance of interest bearing liabilities. The average rates on
interest bearing liabilities increased from 5.15% for the three months ended
September 30, 1996 to 5.20% for the three months ended September 30, 1997.  The
average balance of interest bearing liabilities increased $24.2 million for the
three months ended September 30, 1997 as compared to the same period in the
prior fiscal year.

     NET INTEREST MARGIN. The Company's net interest margin for the three months
ended September 30, 1997 as compared to September 30, 1996 increased 16 basis
points to 3.85%.  As discussed above, the yields on interest earning assets
increased more than the rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities, resulting in
an increase in net interest margin.  Because the Company's interest-bearing
liabilities reprice faster than its interest-earning assets, when interest rates
decrease, the Company generally experiences an increase in its net interest
margin.  The opposite is generally true during a period of increasing interest
rates.

     PROVISION FOR LOSSES ON LOANS. The allowance for possible losses on loans
is maintained at a level which is considered by management to be adequate to
absorb possible loan losses on existing loans that may become uncollectible,
based on an evaluation of the collectability of loans and prior loan loss
experience.  The evaluation takes into consideration such factors as changes in
the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, overall portfolio quality, review
of specific problem loans, and current economic conditions that may affect the
borrower's ability to pay.  The allowance for possible loan losses is
established through a provision for possible loan losses charged to expense.

      During the three months ended September 30, 1997, the Company recorded a
provision for losses on loans of $526,000 as compared to $90,000 for the three
months ended September 30, 1996.  The provision for loan losses of $526,000  for
the three months ended September 30, 1997 compared to the same period in fiscal
1996 is primarily related to management's continued evaluation of the loan
portfolio in light of general economic conditions. The Bank increased its
provision for losses on loans to aid in absorbing possible loan losses from the
credit card loan program.  See "Asset Quality" for further discussion.

     The allowance for loan losses at September 30, 1997 was $4.8 million.  The
allowance increased approximately $296,000 from the June 30, 1997 balance
primarily as a result of the provision for loan losses of $526,000 exceeding net
charge-offs of $230,000. The ratio of allowance for loan losses to nonperforming
loans at September 30, 1997 was 196.32% compared to 200.15% at September 30,
1996.  The allowance for losses on loans to total loans at September 30, 1997
was 1.08% compared to 0.98% at September 30, 1996.  The Bank's management
believes that the September 30, 1997 recorded allowance for loan losses was
adequate to provide for potential losses on the related loans, based on its
evaluation of the collectability of loans and prior loss experience.

     NONINTEREST INCOME.  Noninterest income was $2.5 million for the three
months ended September 30, 1997 as compared to $1.4 million for the three months
ended September 30, 1996, an increase of $1.1 million.

     Loan fees and service charges increased by $375,000 for the three months
ended September 30, 1997 as compared to the same period in the prior fiscal
year.  The majority of the increase was from late charges on credit cards loans
of $223,000.  The credit card program began in the second quarter of fiscal
1997.


     Fees on deposits increased $145,000 for the three months ended September
30, 1997 as compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year.  This increase
was due to an increase in the number of transaction accounts that customers have
with the bank.  See "Financial Condition Data" for further discussion.

     The increase in credit card income of $598,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 1997 as compared to the same period in fiscal 1996 is primarily
due to an increase in fees received on unsecured credit cards.  This represents
processing fees, interchange fees, annual fees and other miscellaneous fees.
This credit card program was initiated in fiscal 1997.

     NONINTEREST EXPENSE.  Noninterest expense decreased $2.0 million from $6.8
million for the three months ended September 30, 1996 to $4.8 million for the
three months ended September 30, 1997.  This decrease was primarily from a
decrease in federal insurance premiums and assessments of $2.8 million, which
was partially offset by an increase in compensation and employee benefits of
$143,000, and an increase in losses, provision for losses and expenses on
foreclosed real estate and other properties, net.

     The decrease in the federal insurance premiums of $2.8 million is the
result of the passage by Congress and the President of the United States of the
Savings Association Insurance Fund "SAIF" legislation which resulted in a one
time assessment of $2.6 million to the Bank in order to recapitalize the SAIF
during the first quarter of fiscal 1997.  This one time assessment was charged
to the Bank on September 30, 1996.

     There was an increase of $345,000 in the cost of third party processors of
credit cards of $345,000. This represents costs for processing of applications,
collecting loans, and marketing costs for the acquisition of credit cards for
the unsecured credit card program.  The Company began processing credit cards in
the second quarter of fiscal 1997.

     INCOME TAX EXPENSE.  The Company's  income tax expense for the three months
ended September 30, 1997 was  $882,000 compared to a credit of $285,000 for the
three months ended September 30, 1996, an increase of $2.1 million. This
increase was proportionate to the increase in the Company's income before income
tax as compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     The Bank's primary sources of funds are deposits, amortization and
prepayments of loan principal (including mortgage-backed securities) and, to a
lesser extent, sales of mortgage loans, sales and/or maturities of securities,
mortgage-backed securities, and short-term investments.  While scheduled loan
payments and maturing securities are relatively predictable, deposit flows and
loan prepayments are more influenced by interest rates, general economic
conditions, and competition. The Bank attempts to price its deposits to meet its
asset/liability objectives consistent with local market conditions.  Excess
balances are invested in overnight funds.

     Federal regulations have historically required the Bank to maintain minimum
levels of liquid assets.  The required percentage has varied from time to time
based upon economic conditions and savings flows and is currently 5% of net
withdrawable savings deposits and current borrowings.  Liquid assets for
purposes of this ratio include cash, certain time deposits, U. S.  Government
and corporate securities and other obligations generally having remaining
maturities of less than five years.  The Bank has historically maintained its
liquidity ratio at a level in excess of that required by these regulations.  At
September 30, 1997, the Bank's regulatory liquidity ratio was 5.89%.

     Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term responsibility of
management.  The Bank adjusts its investments in liquid assets based upon
management's assessment of (i) expected loan demand, (ii) projected loan sales,
(iii) expected deposit flows, (iv) yields available on interest-bearing
deposits, and (v) the objectives of its asset/liability management program.
Excess liquidity is invested generally in interest-bearing overnight deposits
and other short-term government and agency obligations.  During the three months
ended September 30, 1997, the Bank generated funds internally that allowed it to
pay down FHLB advances. The Bank renewed its open line of credit with the FHLB
in January 1997 at an amount of $20.0 million which will expire in January 1998.
Management expects this line of credit to be renewed at this time.   There were
no outstanding advances on this line of credit at September 30, 1997.

     The Bank anticipates that it will have sufficient funds available to meet
current loan commitments.  At September 30, 1997, the Bank had outstanding
commitments to originate or purchase loans of $44.7 million and to sell loans of
$27.0 million.  In addition, the Bank had committments to purchase $3.5 million
securities available for sale.  There was no commitment to purchase or sell
mortgage-backed securities, or securities to be held to maturity.

     Although deposits are the Bank's primary source of funds, the Bank's policy
has been to utilize borrowings where the funds can be invested in either loans
or securities at a positive rate of return or to use the funds for short term
liquidity purposes.  See "Financial Condition Data" for further analysis.


     In April of 1996, the Company initiated a stock buy back program in which
up to 10% of the common stock of the Company may be acquired beginning May 1,
1996 through April 30, 1997.  A total of 138,315 shares of common stock were
purchased pursuant to this program.  In April of 1997, the Company initiated
another stock buy back program in which up to 10% of the common stock of the
Company may be acquired beginning May 1, 1997 through April 30, 1998.  In
accordance with the provisions of the current stock buy back program, the
Company had purchased 32,000 shares of common stock as of September 30, 1997.

     Savings institutions insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
are required by the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act
of 1989 ("FIRREA") to meet prescribed regulatory capital requirements.  If a
requirement is not met, regulatory authorities may take legal or administrative
actions, including restrictions on growth or operations or, in extreme cases,
seizure.  Institutions not in compliance may apply for an exemption from the
requirements and submit a recapitalization plan.  Under these capital
requirements, at September 30, 1997, the Bank met all current capital
requirements.

     The Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS") has adopted a core capital
requirement for savings institutions comparable to the requirement for national
banks.  The OTS core capital requirement is 3% of total adjusted assets for
thrifts that receive the highest supervisory rating for safety and soundness.
The Bank had core capital of 7.47% at September 30, 1997

     Pursuant to FDICIA, the federal banking agencies, including the OTS, have
also proposed regulations authorizing the agencies to require a depository
institution to maintain additional total capital to account for concentration of
credit risk and the risk of non-traditional activities.  No assurance can be
given as to the final form of any such regulation or its effect of the Bank.

     During the first quarter of fiscal 1997, the Small Business Job 
Protection Act of 1996 was signed into law which repealed the percentage of 
taxable income method of computing the bad debt deduction for savings 
institutions for tax years beginning after December 31, 1995.  Beginning in 
fiscal year 1997, the Bank is required to recapture into income the excess of 
its June 30, 1997 loan loss reserves for "qualifying"  and "nonqualifying" 
loans over its June 30, 1988 loan loss reserves for "qualifying" and 
"nonqualifying" loans.  This excess which was $720,000 at June 30, 1997 and 
September 30, 1997, is required to be recaptured ratably over a six year 
period.  The onset of recapture can be delayed for one or two years if the 
Bank meets a residential loan originations requirement in effect in 1996 and 
1997.  To qualify for a deferral each year, the Bank will be required to lend 
as much in dollar terms on residential real estate as in the average of the 
most recent six years.  The residential loan calculation does not include 
refinancing and home equity loans.  At June 30, 1997 and September 30, 1997, 
the Bank's recorded deferred tax liability of $245,000 provides for the 
recapture of the loan loss reserves.

IMPACT OF INFLATION AND CHANGING PRICES

     The Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto presented herein
have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles,
which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in
terms of historical dollars without considering the change in the relative
purchasing power of money over time due to inflation.  The impact of inflation
is reflected in the increased cost of the Bank's operations. Unlike most
industrial companies, nearly all the assets and liabilities of the Bank are
monetary in nature.  As a result, interest rates have a greater impact on the
Bank's performance than do the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest
rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or to the same extent as the
prices of goods and services.

EFFECT OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS


                                       Page 17
<PAGE>

     The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement No. 128,
"Earnings Per Share".  This Statement establishes standards for computing and
presenting earnings per share ("EPS").  It replaces the presentation of primary
EPS with a presentation of basic EPS.  It also requires dual presentation of
basic and diluted EPS on the face of the income statement for all entities with
complex capital structures and requires a reconciliation of the numerator and
denominator of the basic EPS computation to the numerator and denominator of the
diluted EPS computation.  This Statement is effective for financial statements
issued for periods ending after December 15, 1997, including interim periods;
earlier application is not permitted.  This Statement requires restatement of
all prior-period EPS data presented.

     The FASB issued SFAS No. 130, " Reporting Comprehensive Income".  This
Statement establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive
income and its components (revenues, expenses, gains, and losses)  in a full set
of general-purpose financial statements.  This Statement requires that all items
that are required to be recognized under accounting standards as components of
comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is displayed with
the same prominence as other financial statements.  This Statement requires that
an enterprise (a) classify items of other comprehensive income by their nature
in a financial statement and (b) display the accumulated balance of other
comprehensive income separately from retained earnings and additional paid-in
capital in the equity section of a statement of financial position.  This
Statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997.

     The FASB issued SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of Enterprise and
Related Information".  This Statement establishes standards for the way that
public business enterprises report information about operating segments in
annual financial statements and requires that those enterprises report selected
information about operating segments in interim financial reports issued to
shareholders.  It also establishes standards for related disclosures about
products and services, geographic areas, and major customers.  This Statement
supersedes FASB Statement No.14, "Financial Reporting for Segments of a Business
Enterprise", but retains the requirement to report information about major
customers.  It amends SFAS No. 94, "Consolidation of All Majority-Owned
Subsidiaries", to remove the special disclosure requirements for previous
unconsolidated subsidiaries.  This Statement does not apply to nonpublic
business enterprises or to not-for-profit organizations.  This Statement is
effective for financial statements for periods beginning after December 15,
1997.
