          The Honorable Henry J. Hyde
          Chairman, Committee on the Judiciary
          House of Representatives

          Subject: Federally Chartered Corporation: Review of the Financial Statement Audit
                   Report for the United States Olympic Committee for 1997 and 1998

          Dear Mr. Chairman:

          As requested, we reviewed the audit report covering the financial statements of the United
          States Olympic Committee, a federally chartered corporation, for the years ended December
          31, 1997 and 1998. The corporation exercises exclusive jurisdiction over all matters
          pertaining to the participation of the United States in the Olympic and Pan American Games
          and the organization of such games in the United States.

          Federally chartered corporations are required under 36 U.S.C. 10101 to

          * present the corporation's assets and liabilities and reasonable detail on the corporation's
             income and expenses in annual financial statements,

          * obtain an annual financial audit by an independent public accountant, and

          * submit the auditor's report and the corporation's financial statements to the Congress.

          The objective of our review was to determine whether the audit report complied with the
          financial reporting requirements of the law. In carrying out our work, we reviewed the
          corporation's financial statements and the accompanying notes, performed certain analytical
          procedures related to information presented in the financial statements, reviewed the
          auditor's report, and made inquiries to corporation officials or the auditor as we deemed
          necessary. We did not review the auditor's working papers. Our review disclosed no
          reportable instances of noncompliance.
