hereby amended by adding thereto the information set forth below. 
The terms defined in the Schedule 13D shall have their defined
meanings herein, unless otherwise defined herein.

Item 3.   Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

     Item 3 is hereby supplemented by the addition of the
following:

     The 44,000 shares of the Common Stock purchased by Edelman
Value Fund Ltd. (the "Fund") since the date of the last preceding
Amendment to this Schedule 13D, at an aggregate cost of
approximately $10,546 (including commissions), were purchased

     Item 5(a) is hereby supplemented by the addition of the
following:

     (a)  The aggregate percentage of shares of Common Stock

(based upon the 4,346,930 shares which would be outstanding upon
the exercise of such options).  By reason of the provisions of
Rule 13d-3, Mr. Edelman may be deemed to own beneficially the
shares owned by the Fund, Edelman Limited Partnership, Aile
Blanche, Regina M. Edelman, Felicitas and the Custodian Accounts,
which, when aggregated with the shares owned by Mr. Edelman,
total 1,795,889 shares (including options on 20,000 shares),
constituting approximately 41.3% of the shares outstanding (based
upon the 4,346,930 shares which would be outstanding upon the
exercise of such options).

     (iii) Regina M. Edelman owns 145,050 shares of the Common
Stock, constituting approximately 3.3% of the shares outstanding.

     (iv) Aile Blanche owns 8,400 shares of the Common Stock,

     (vi) The Retirement Plan owns 26,620 shares of the Common
Stock, constituting approximately 0.6% of the shares outstanding.

     (vii) The Fund owns 355,250 shares of the Common Stock,
constituting approximately 8.2% of the  shares outstanding.

     (viii) The Custodian Accounts own 188,650 shares of the
Common Stock, constituting approximately 4.3% of the shares
outstanding.

     (ix) Certain other persons related to or affiliated with Mr.
Edelman own the following amounts of Common Stock: (A) Penelope
C. Edelman owns 39,865 shares of Common Stock, constituting
approximately 0.9% of the shares outstanding; (B) three UGMA
Accounts for the benefit of children of Mr. Edelman, of which
Penelope C. Edelman is custodian, own a total of 22,510 shares of
Common Stock, constituting approximately 3.0% of the shares
outstanding; (C) three trusts for the benefit of children of Mr.
Edelman, of which Michael E. Schultz (a director of the Company)

Stock, constituting approximately 13.6% of the shares
outstanding; and (D) Mildred Ash owns 226,000 shares of Common
Stock, constituting approximately 2.8% of the shares outstanding. 
Mr. Edelman expressly disclaims beneficial ownership of the

     (x)  To the best knowledge of the reporting persons, certain
directors and officers of the reporting persons and other
affiliated persons own the following amounts of Common Stock
(based upon information reported by the Company or such
