                       SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
                                WASHINGTON, D.C.
                                  SCHEDULE 13D
                   UNDER THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934

             (FILED BY THE GROUP PURSUANT TO GENERAL INSTRUCTION C)

ITEM 1.  SECURITY AND ISSUER.

The equity securities to which this statement relates are the common stock,
$.32 par value per share (the "Common Stock"), of Luby's, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"). The Company's principal executive offices are
located at 2211 Northeast Loop 410, Post Office Box 33069, San Antonio, Texas
78265- 3069.

ITEM 2.  IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND.

This statement is being filed jointly by Harris James Pappas ("H. Pappas") and
Christopher James Pappas ("C. Pappas"). C. Pappas and H. Pappas are each
referred to herein, individually, as a "Shareholder" and together as the
"Shareholders". Both Shareholders are self employed in the restaurant business
as the principal owners of Pappas Partners, L.P. and Pappas Restaurants, Inc.,
whose address is 642 Yale Street, Houston, Texas 77007. Each Shareholder is a
United States citizen. During the last five years, neither of the Shareholders
has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or
similar misdemeanors) nor been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or
administrative body of competent jurisdiction as a result of which either was
or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations
of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state
securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

ITEM 3.  SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

Each Shareholder purchased his shares of the Company's Common Stock using
personal funds and from routine margin borrowings through standard margin
agreements with broker A.G. Edwards & Sons, Inc. The amount of funds used to
purchase the Common Stock are, in the aggregate, $3,285,274 and $3,255,715 for
H. Pappas and C. Pappas, respectively.

ITEM 4.  PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

The Shareholders intend to use their holdings, in cooperation with the
Company's Board of Directors and management, to have an influence on the future
of the Company. In these regards the Shareholders have discussed with
representatives of the Company, including certain directors, the possibility of
their, and one of their representatives, being elected to the Board of
Directors (which could result in a change in composition or size of the Board
of Directors) and the possibility of their taking some active role in the
Company's management and operations and, in connection therewith, taking
additional equity interests in the Company directly from the Company or
otherwise investing in the Company. No understandings or agreements have been
reached in such regards, and there can be no assurance that any will be reached
or even that such discussions will lead to specific negotiations in such
regards. Otherwise, at present, the Shareholders have no plans or proposals
that would involve them seeking voting control of the Company or acquiring
additional shares in the market that would result in their holding a
substantial additional percentage of the outstanding shares of the Company, any
extraordinary corporate transaction, any other change in the Board of Directors
or management, any other change with respect to the Company's capitalization,
corporate structure, charter or bylaws or any change that would affect the
Company's stock exchange listing or registration with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. The Shareholders may, however, make additional purchases
or, possibly, sales of shares of Common Stock from time to time.
