          Item 1.  Security and Issuer.

              This Amendment No. 52 to  Schedule 13D is filed on behalf  of
          American  Premier  Group,  Inc.  ("American  Premier"),  American
          Financial  Corporation  ("AFC"), American  Financial Enterprises,
          Inc. ("AFEI") and  Carl H. Lindner, Carl H. Lindner III, S. Craig
          Lindner and Keith E. Lindner (collectively, the "Lindner Family")
          (American  Premier,   AFC,  AFEI  and  the   Lindner  Family  are
          collectively referred  to as  the "Reporting Persons"),  to amend
          and  update the Schedule 13D  most recently amended  by AFC, AFEI
          and Carl H. Lindner on November 1, 1994, relative to the $.01 par
          value  Class A Common Stock  ("Class A Common  Stock,") issued by
          Citicasters  Inc. ("Citicasters").    American  Premier, Carl  H.
          Lindner  III, S.  Craig Lindner  and Keith  E. Lindner  are being
          added  as  Reporting  Persons  as a  result  of  the  transaction
          described in Item 3 below.

              The principal executive offices of Citicasters are located at
          One East Fourth Street, Cincinnati, Ohio  45202.  All capitalized
          terms  not  otherwise  defined  herein shall  have  the  meanings
          assigned to  them in  the Schedule 13D,  as amended.   Items  not
          included  in this  amendment are  either not  amended or  are not
          applicable.

              As  of April 7,  1995, the Lindner  Family beneficially owned
          approximately 49.8%  of the outstanding common  stock of American
          Premier and American Premier beneficially owned all of the common
          stock  of  AFC (approximately  79%  of  AFC's outstanding  voting
          equity securities).  At  that date, AFC beneficially  owned 82.6%
          of  the  outstanding  common  stock  of  AFEI  and its  designees
          constituted   a   majority   of   AFEI's  Board   of   Directors.
          Additionally, certain  officers and executives of  AFC also serve
          as officers of AFEI.

          Item 4.  Purpose of the Transaction.

              The Reporting Persons consider their  beneficial ownership of
          Citicasters  equity   securities  as  an  investment  which  they
          continue  to evaluate.  Although they have no present plans to do
          so,  from  time  to  time   the  Reporting  Persons  may  acquire
          additional Citicasters  equity securities  or dispose of  some or
          all of the Citicasters  equity securities which they beneficially
          own.

              The  Reporting Persons  have substantial  influence  over the

          of  the  foregoing, the  Reporting Persons  may  be deemed  to be
          controlling persons of Citicasters.

              Except as set  forth in  this Item 4,  the Reporting  Persons
          presently  have no  plans or  proposals that  relate to  or would
          result in any of the actions specified in clauses (a) through (j)
