          This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D, filed on behalf
of Dorchester Partners, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership
("Partners"), Dorchester Advisors, Inc., a California corporation
("Advisors"), and Michael J. Halpern, an individual ("Halpern"),
hereby amends the Schedule 13D filed on November 25, 1996 as
follows:


ITEM 5.   INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

          Item 5 is hereby amended to supply the following
additional information:

          On November 15, 1996, shortly after the date that
triggered the Reporting Persons' obligation to file the Schedule
13D that this Amendment to Schedule 13D amends, DNKY announced
negative news with respect to its financial results, leading to a
significant decline in the market price of the Common Shares. 
Upon hearing of that announcement, the Reporting Persons
commenced sales of shares, as is reflected in the table set forth
in Item 5(c).  As a result of these sales, the Reporting Persons
own 379,300 shares of Common Stock, which is less than 5% of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock.  Consequently, the Reporting
Persons are no longer subject to the reporting requirements under
Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended,
as a result of their ownership of equity securities of DNKY.
