Item 1. Security and Issuer.
- -----------------------------
This Amendment No. 11 to the Schedule 13D filed by the reporting person
relates to common shares, each without par value (the "Common Shares"), of
Liqui-Box Corporation, an Ohio corporation (the "Issuer"), the principal
executive offices of which are located at 6950 Worthington-Galena Road, P.O. Box
494, Worthington, Ohio 43085-0494.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
- ---------------------------------------------
(a) and (b) The aggregate number and percentage of Common Shares of the Issuer
beneficially owned by the reporting person as of February 24, 1998,
and the nature of such ownership is as follows:
NATURE OF PERCENT
COMMON SHARES BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP OF CLASS (1)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
1,424,643 (2) Sole Voting and Sole Dispositive 29.7%
127,027 (3) Sole Voting and Shared Dispositive 2.7%
1,689 (4) Shared Voting and Shared Dispositive 0.0%
------------ ----
1,553,359 (5) 32.4%
- -------------
(1) Based upon 4,725,773 Common Shares outstanding as of February 24, 1998
and the number of Common Shares as to which the reporting person had
the right to acquire beneficial ownership upon the exercise of options
exercisable within 60 days of February 24, 1998.
(2) Includes 72,777 Common Shares which are subject to options held by the
reporting person which are exercisable within 60 days of February 24,
1998. Supplemental Retirement Discounted Options become exercisable
upon termination of the reporting person's employment (other than upon
termination for cause); however, the Supplemental Retirement Discounted
Options become fully exercisable upon an earlier change in control of
the Issuer. For purposes of determining options which are presently
exercisable, it is assumed that the reporting person will not terminate
his employment with the Issuer during the next 60 days.
Also includes 61,376 Common Shares held for the reporting person's
account in the Liqui-Box Corporation Employee Stock Ownership Plan.
Also includes 490,113 Common Shares of the Issuer held by the reporting
person as Successor Trustee under the S.S. Davis Residual Trust.
(3) Includes 127,027 Common Shares deposited with the reporting person in
his capacity as voting trustee of a voting trust. The reporting person
exercises sole voting power with respect to the Common Shares deposited
in the voting trust; however, the person who deposited the Common
Shares in the voting trust retained investment power, subject to a
right of first refusal in the reporting person, and the right to
receive dividends thereon. The voting trust expires on September 29,
2003.

to Securities of the Issuer.
----------------------------
There are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or
relationships (legal or otherwise) not disclosed in Item 5 between the
reporting person and any other person with respect to any securities of
the Issuer, except that the trustee of the Liqui-Box Corporation
Employee Stock Ownership Plan may vote the 61,376 Common Shares held in
the account of the reporting person in its discretion if he does not
exercise his power to direct the trustee how to vote and the trustees
of the Liqui-Box Corporation Employees' Profit Sharing and Salary
Deferral Plan (the "Liqui-Box 401(k) Plan") exercise shared voting and
investment power with respect to the Common Shares held in the
reporting person's account in the Liqui-Box 401(k) Plan, as to which
