[Extraneous text removed by Bob Ainsley]

DCU Members,

At our December meeting, the DCU Supervisory Committee decided to
start releasing the minutes of our meetings, in a manner similar
to that used by the DCU Board of Directors.  The following messages
contain SC meeting minutes, starting with our December 1995 meeting.

The procedure the SC plans to use is as follows.  Starting with
our January meeting, we will review the preceeding meeting's minutes
and note items for correction and/or redaction.  About one week later,
we plan to make the minutes available in the branches and in this notes 
file.  Since we typically meet every other month, our minutes will in 
general be available no sooner than two months and one week after the 
specified meeting.

In general, there will be three types of redactions from SC minutes.
The first is any discussion that takes place in executive session, though 
decisions reached will generally be reported.  The second is information
that we feel could harm the DCU if revealed publicly.  The third is 
information that management or the Board of Directors wishes to report 
to the membership themselves and which would be reported prematurely if 
included in the public SC minutes.

The SC is also willing to provide minutes for past meetings, back to 
the appointment of the current committee in April 1995.  Please send your 
request to the current SC Chair.  We will consider requests for minutes 
prior to that date, but we do not commit to provide copies of the minutes 
from prior Supervisory Committees.  Note that no minutes can be released 
without our reviewing them for any needed redactions.  We will review 
requested old minutes as we have time available.

   Horace Turner

STAFF:  Donald Basque, Senior Collector-Collections Department
   Carlo Cestra, President/CEO
   Tom Gray, Vice President of Lending

   Michael Moriarty, Internal Auditor
   Jim Regan, Vice President/CFO
______________________________________________________


I.  ROLL CALL & DETERMINATION OF QUORUM

William Kilgore, new Supervisory Committee member, introduced himself to the
Committee.  Mr. Kilgore noted that he has been a DCU member since the credit
union's inception and has been interested in the politics revolving around
the credit union for the past five years.  He has been employed by Digital
Equipment Corporation since 1973 and is currently a Principal Software
Engineer of Object Orient Software, working at Digital's Spitbrook Road
facility in Nashua, NH.

The Committee officially welcomed Mr. Kilgore to the Supervisory Committee.


II.  MINUTES

Larry Seiler requested that Mr. Melchione's (DCU's General Counsel) fax,
which he sent to Mr. Ketz, be included in front of the "Committee's Response
to Mr. Melchione's Fax" which was attached to the October 16, 1995
Supervisory Committee Minutes.  The Committee agreed that this should be
added to add clarity to their response.

The Committee approved the October 16, 1995, Supervisory Committee Minutes as
submitted with the attachment of Mr. Melchione's Fax as noted above.  


III.  FINANCIALS

Jim Regan, Vice President/CFO, reviewed Financial Graphs for the months of
October & November 1995.  He noted the following:  (Peer Group figures are as
of June 1995)

- Capital Ratio:  Decreased from 9.2% at month end in October to 9.02% at
month end in November.   This was primarily due to an increase in Asset
Growth.

- Asset Growth:   Increased from 4.7% at month end in October to 7.4% at
month end in November.  This increase resulted from approximately $10 million
in Deposit Growth primarily from DCU's new Tiered Rate Money Market Accounts.

- Delinquency Ratio:  Decreased from 0.3% at month end in October to 0.22% at
month end in November.

- Net Charge Offs:  Remained flat from 0.3% at month end in October to 0.37%
at month end in November.

-Net Income:  Decreased slightly from 1.3% at month end in October to 1.27%
at month end in November.

- Expense Ratio:  Remained flat at 3.30% at month end in October and
November.  DCU's year end budget projection on this item is 3.56%.  

It was noted that Peer Group percentage information, which DCU currently
uses,  is NCUA's classification of Peer Group.  This includes ALL credit
unions in the country which have Assets of $50 million and over.  The
Committee requested that an internal analysis be performed on Peer Group
information comparing DCU against only those credit unions which are closest
to DCU's size etc. for better understanding and perspective only.

At 9:00 a.m., Mr. Regan ended his Financial Update and left the meeting.


IV.  O'ROURKE CLARK & SACHER 

Wade Painter and John Leonard of O'Rourke Clark & Sacher, DCU's External
Auditors, introduced themselves to the Committee.  They noted the following:

- Mr. Painter and Mr. Leonard arrived last Monday, December 4, 1995, and
began their Interim Annual Audit work focusing on our Lending Operations.  
- DCU had a very solid and strong year of Consumer Loan growth.  
- A careful look at our underwriting standards has thus far, showed that
we've maintained the same quality standards on our underwriting.  
- DCU has had very professional loan growth, set aside from other credit
unions.
- Regarding Student Loans:  There is a bill, pending approval from the
Department of Education, which would remove lenders with less than $5 million
in student loan portfolios from having a Student Loan 
Audit performed.  This bill will be finalized by June 30, 1996, and until
then, DCU is temporarily exempt from the audit requirment.  Mr. Painter
distributed to the Committee a NAFCUgram on Student Loan 
Audits.
- So far, our Annual Audit is going fine and everything looks good.  O'Rourke
Clark & Sacher will also look at our presence on the Internet including
safety and security issues.

Mr. Painter reviewed some new FASB's currently in force:

FASB #115:  Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities:
 This went into effect last year.  From November 15, 1995 to December 31,
1995, Financial Institutions may reposition their investment portfolios if
needed.

FASB #122:  Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights:  Credit Unions can now
recognize the value of the mortgage servicing retained as an Asset for 1996.
 This allows for consistent treatment for servicing the portfolio.  (DCU
started servicing mortgage loans in May 1993).  Recognition is only required
if the amount would be material to the Financial Statements.

FASB #116: Accounting for Contributions:  If it's material, were now required
to book it.

At 9:25 a.m., Mr. Painter and Mr. Leonard ended their update and left the
meeting.


V.  COLLECTIONS DEPARTMENT OVERVIEW

Tom Gray, Vice President of Lending, presented the Collections Department
overview.  Donald Basque, Senior Collector, was also present.  Mr. Gray
showed several overheads explaining each in detail.  The overheads included:

- Causes of Delinquencies
- Roll of the Collections Department
- Flow Chart of who works in Collections (titles)
- Roll of the Bankruptcy Specialist
- Roll of the Legal Charge Off Specialist
- Flow Chart of the Collection Process
- Civil Action Procedures

Mr. Gray noted that DCU has very low delinquencies and charge offs primarily
because of our underwriting criteria, our employees who keep up with
delinquent accounts, and with the membership at large.
 
X
X
X ..... Mr. Gray also noted that the Collections Department also serves as a
Financial Advisor to members helping them to 1) create a budget and help them
get back on their feet, 2) offers suggestions to members on how they can
protect their credit during a divorce, during times of unemployment, etc. and
3) works with all members who have delinquent loans on a case by case basis
to save our mission, noting that as a credit union, this is something we
should be doing.  Credit agencies work on pure volume only, but are used in
some instances.

Mr. Basque noted that most members are loyal to DCU, but just go through
rough times for a period of time when they've lost their future income.

At 9:55 a.m., The Committee thanked Mr. Gray and Mr. Basque for their
presentation.  Mr. Gray and Mr. Basque left the meeting.


VI.  INTERNAL AUDITING POLICY & PLAN

Mr. Heintz reviewed three minor changes which the Board requested be made
during the last Board of Directors Meeting in November 1995.  Ms. Kendall
will make the noted changes which will be submitted for Board Ratification at
the December 1995 Board Meeting.  

Mr. Heintz reviewed his update which he made to the Board during the October
1995 Board Meeting.  

Mr. Heintz and Mr. Cestra noted that they had no questions or concerns
regarding Mr. Moriarty's Internal Auditing Plan for 1996.

			technology  (where to be in the curve)

			fiduciary  (tax, insurance funding)
			board process/policy
			products and services (do we want to be more than a financial
institution -- such as AARP)

meeting will be scheduled (perhaps both Chairmen) to discuss improving
communication.  In the interim, if the Supervisory Committee has any
