SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
 

Issuer Delisting; Notice of Application to Withdraw From Listing 
and Registration; (Ply Gem Industries, Inc., Common Stock, $.25 Par 
Value) File No. 1-4087

December 5, 1994.
    Ply Gem Industries, 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 
security (``Security'') from listing and registration on the American 
Stock Exchange, Inc. (``Amex'').
    The reasons alleged in the application for withdrawing the Security 
from listing and registration include the following:
    According to the Company, in addition to being listed on the Amex, 
the Security is listed on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. (``NYSE''). 
The Security commenced trading on the NYSE at the opening of business 
on December 1, 1994 and concurrently therewith the Security was 
suspended from trading on the Amex.
    In making the decision to withdraw the Security from listing on the 
Amex, the Company considered the direct and indirect costs and expenses 
attendant on maintaining the dual listing of its securities on the NYSE 
and on the Amex. The Company does not see any particular advantage in 
the dual trading of the Security and believes that dual listing would 
fragment the market for the Security.
    Any interested person may, on or before December 27, 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 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.
Margaret H. McFarland,
Deputy Secretary.
