   Item 2.     Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

          On June 30, 1995, Prideco, Inc. ("Prideco"), a majority-owned
   subsidiary of the Registrant, merged (the "Merger") with Grant Acquisition
   Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Energy Ventures, Inc. ("EVI").  In
   the Merger, in which Prideco was the surviving corporation, the
   Registrant's shares of Prideco were converted into 1,035,858 shares of
   Common Stock, $1.00 par value, of EVI ("EVI Common Stock").  The EVI
   Common Stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. and EVI files
   periodic and other reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission
   (Commission File No. 0-7265).  The number of shares of EVI Common Stock 
   issued in the Merger were determined by arm's-length negotiation between
   the Registrant and EVI.

          Concurrently with the closing of the Merger, the Registrant
   acquired (i) 606,405 shares of EVI Common Stock from EVI for a cash
   payment of $9,000,000 ($14.84 per share) and (ii) an aggregate of 306,468
   shares from three individuals who were the other stockholders of Prideco
   (which shares were received by such persons in exchange for a part of
   their shares of Prideco in the Merger) for an aggregate cash payment of
   $4,290,552 ($14 per share).  The 1,948,731 shares of EVI Common Stock
   acquired by the Registrant in the transactions referred to above represent
   13.1% of the outstanding shares of EVI Common Stock (based on information
   regarding the number of outstanding shares of EVI provided to the
   Registrant by EVI).  In connection with the Merger, Sheldon B. Lubar, was
   elected to the Board of Directors of EVI as a representative of the
   Registrant.
