SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
 

Issuer Delisting; Notice of Application to Withdraw From Listing 
and Registration; (Matlack Systems, Inc., Common Stock, $1.00 Par 
Value; Common Stock Purchase Rights) File No. 1-10105

February 1, 1994.
    Matlack Systems, Inc. (``Company'') has filed an application with 
the Securities and Exchange Commission (``Commission''), pursuant to 
section 12(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (``Act'') and Rule 
12d2-2(d) promulgated thereunder, to withdraw the above specified 
securities from listing and registration on the American Stock 
Exchange, Inc. (``Amex'').
    The reasons alleged in the application for withdrawing these 
securities from listing and registration include the following:
    According to the Company, in addition to being listed on the Amex, 
its common stock and common stock purchase rights are listed on the New 
York Stock Exchange, Inc. (``NYSE''). The Company's common stock and 
common stock purchase rights commenced trading on the NYSE at the 
opening of business on December 9, 1993 and concurrently therewith such 
stock was suspended from trading on the Amex.
    In making the decision to withdraw its common stock from listing on 
the Amex, the Company considered the direct and indirect costs and 
expenses attendant in maintaining the dual listing of its common stock 
on the NYSE and on the Amex. The Company does not believe that dual 
trading of its securities on both the NYSE and Amex would be 
advantageous, but rather, that such a dual listing might fragment the 
market for the common stock.
    Any interested person may, on or before February 23, 1994 submit by 
letter to the Secretary of the Securities and Exchange Commission, 450 
Fifth Street NW., Washington, DC 20549, facts bearing upon whether the 
application has been made in accordance with the rules of the exchanges 
and what terms, if any, should be imposed by the Commission for the 
protection of investors. The Commission, based on the information 
submitted to it, will issue an order granting the application after the 
date mentioned above, unless the Commission determines to order a 
hearing on the matter.

    For the Commission, by the Division of Market Regulation, 
pursuant to delegated authority.
Jonathan G. Katz,
Secretary.
