The Daily Workshop Report
by Robert Sheard (TMF Sheard)

ALEXANDRIA, VA (August 15, 1997) -- Tonight's report will be somewhat abbreviated, not because the market was staggered by a quick jab, but because I was on the road all day and arrived here at Fool Global Headquarters somewhat belatedly. Oops.

So let me focus on the Friday essentials: changes to our Workshop database and the new Investing for Growth rankings.

This week, drop only the following stock from the Workshop Database:

New England Business (NEB)

In its place, add this replacement:

Parker Drilling (PKD)

And finally, here is the new Investing for Growth line-up:

Western Digital (WDC)
Dell Computer (DELL)
Quantum (QNTM)
Sun Microsystems (SUNW)
Compaq Computer (CPQ)
Helen of Troy (HELE)
Price, T. Rowe (TROW)
Robert Half Int'l (RHI)
Dollar General (DG)
Microsoft (MSFT)

Hang in there, Fools. And look for the volunteer corps' database update sometime this weekend in the message board folders.
