TOUCHDOWN MATH Now Available from Gamco

Big Spring, TX May 15, 1993--Gamco Education Materials today announced the
shipment of TOUCHDOWN MATH for the Macintosh. TOUCHDOWN MATH, a series of
five programs designed to provide practice in computational skills, will
be sold through Gamco and its 250 educational software dealers worldwide.

"Beta tests have shown us that both girls and boys enjoy playing TOUCHDOWN
MATH," said Auriel LaFond, President of Gamco. "The programs use the
excitement of a football game to motivate students to do guided practice
in mathematics."

The five programs in the TOUCHDOWN MATH Series are Whole Numbers, Decimals,
Fractions, Percent, and Rounding. Students choose from four playing levels
in each program: High School, College, Pro, and Super Bowl. Each level
contains specific computational skills that have been selected for
practice by the teacher. On each down students select from four possible
plays: running play, short pass, long pass, or punt. Running plays are the
easiest problems while long passes are the most difficult. Punts are used
to move the ball down the field on fourth down and long yardage.

The program management system allows teachers to establish specific
mathematical parameters for the problems in each level of play. They can
control total playing time and set time limits for answering each kind of
problem. They also control sound, record keeping and access to the
built-in Mac calculator. The student management system will maintain up to
100 records for each of up to 500 students. As students play, the date,
the playing levels, and the number of problems correctly solved at each
difficulty level are recorded. Teachers can view, print, or delete all or
individual student records.

TOUCHDOWN MATH will run on the Mac Color Classic, LC Series, II Series, and
Performa 400 and 600 series. The programs require a hard disk, System
6.0.5 or higher, 2MB of memory for System 6.0.x or 3MB for System 7.0, and
a 256-color (or shades of gray) monitor. A Macintosh-compatible printer is
optional.

Gamco Education Materials has published award-winning materials for the
classroom for over 37 years.
