                   This Amendment No. 11 amends and supplements the 
         Statement on Schedule 13D filed on December 8, 1988 by Manville 
         Personal Injury Settlement Trust (the "Trust") and its trustees 
         with respect to the Trust's beneficial ownership of shares of 
         Common Stock, $.01 par value (the "Common Stock"), of Schuller 
         Corporation, formerly Manville Corporation (the "Company"), as 
         previously supplemented and amended (the "Schedule 13D").
         
                   Capitalized terms that are not otherwise defined herein 
         have the meanings assigned in the Schedule 13D.

         ------    -------------------
                   Item 1 of the Schedule 13D is hereby further amended and 
         supplemented as follows:
         
                   On March 29, 1996, Manville Corporation changed its name 
         to "Schuller Corporation."
         
         
         Item 3.   Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
         ------    -------------------------------------------------
                   Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby further amended and 
         supplemented as follows:
         
                   On April 5, 1996, pursuant to the Exchange Agreement (as 
         defined in Item 4 of, and included as Exhibit 1 to, Amendment No. 
         10 to the Schedule 13D), the Trust received 32,527,110 shares of 
         Common Stock from the Company in exchange for the Trust's 
         relinquishing its rights to receive the Profit Sharing Payments 
         (as defined in Item 4 of Amendment No. 10 to the Schedule 13D) and 
         the elimination of certain covenants of the Company for the 
         benefit of the Trust under the Supplemental Agreement (as defined 
         in Item 2 of, and included as Exhibit 3 to, the Schedule 13D filed 
         December 8, 1988, as subsequently amended).
         
                   See Items 4 and 5.  
         
         
         Item 4.   Purpose of Transaction.
         ------    ----------------------
                   Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby further amended and 
         supplemented as follows:
         
                   On March 27, 1996, the Company completed the Disposition 
         (as defined in Item 4 of Amendment No. 10 to the Schedule 13D) of 


                                      -12-

         its investment in its subsidiary, Riverwood International  
         Corporation ("RIC").  Effective upon the Disposition, RIC ceased 
         to be a subsidiary of the Company and the Trust's indirect equity 
         interest in RIC terminated.  The Trust voted its shares of Common 
         Stock in favor of the Disposition and the other proposals 
         submitted for the consideration of common stockholders of the 
         Company at the Special Meeting of the Company held on March 27, 
         1996.  
         
                   As described in Item 4 of Amendment No. 10, pursuant to 
         the Exchange Agreement, on March 27, 1996, the Company declared a 
         special $6.00 per share cash dividend on the Company's Common 
         Stock, payable April 12, 1996, which included a distribution of 
         the proceeds of the Disposition, less certain specified costs, 
         repayments and redemptions, to its shareholders of record as of 
         the close of business on April 8, 1996, including the Trust.  See 
         Item 6.
         
                   As stated in the Trust's press release dated March 28, 
         1996, the proceeds of the special dividend, approximately $772 
         million, will be used by the Trust for settlement of claims in 
         accordance with the Trust distribution process previously approved 
         by U.S. courts.  A copy of the press release is annexed as 
         Exhibit 1 hereto and the information set forth therein is 
         incorporated herein by reference.
         
                   On April 5, 1996, subsequent to the Disposition and 
         pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the Trust relinquished its 
         right to receive Profit Sharing Payments under the Supplemental 
         Agreement for all periods beginning on or after April 5, 1996 and 
         certain other covenants of the Company for the benefit of the 
         Trust were eliminated and in exchange on such date the Company 
         issued to the Trust 32,527,110 shares of Common Stock.  See 
         Item 5.  
         
                   The Trustees who are Directors of the Company expect to 
         convey to the Board of Directors at its April meeting their views 
         as to the future senior management and direction of the Company.  
         The Trust has not made at this time a determination as to whether 
         or not it will subsequently submit a proposal directly to the 
         Company with respect to these matters.

             MANVILLE TRUST TO RECEIVE $772 MILLION AS SPECIAL DIVIDEND
         
         
         NEW YORK, NY, MARCH 28, 1996 -- The Manville Personal Injury 
         Settlement Trust today issued the following statement regarding 
         the completion of the sale of Manville Corporation's 
         ("Manville's") interest in Riverwood International Corporation 
         ("Riverwood"), ratification of a Profit Sharing Exchange Agreement 
         between Manville and the Trust, and the declaration of a $6 per 
         share special dividend on Manville common stock:
         
         Total proceeds of the special dividend distribution will amount to 
         $974 million, of which the Trust will receive $772 million, to be 
         used for settlement of claims in accordance with the Trust 
         Distribution Process previously approved by the U.S. courts.
         
         "We are pleased to have been able to achieve greater liquidity for 
         the beneficiaries of the Trust on a basis that benefits all 
         Manville stockholders.  The Trust has long supported the Riverwood 
         transaction and the Profit Sharing Exchange Agreement between 
         Manville and the Trust.  These actions represent a milestone in 
         assuring the continued settlement of claims for which the Trust 
         was created, while enhancing value for all Manville shareholders," 
         said Robert A. Falise, the Trust's chairman.
         
         The consummation of the Profit Sharing Exchange Agreement is 
         expected to take place prior to the payment of the special 
         dividend approved yesterday by the Manville Board, and will raise 
         the Trust's ownership interest in Manville to approximately 79% of 
         shares outstanding, on a fully diluted basis.  
         
         "These actions enable the Trust to preserve its asset base and to 
         capitalize on opportunities to enhance its value to 
         beneficiaries," Mr. Falise said.  "Including this transaction, the 
         Trust has generated cash available for distribution of more than 

               
<PAGE>




         $1.8 billion since January 1, 1992.  Distributions to 
         beneficiaries since that date totaled more than $700 million.  
         Upon receipt of the Manville special dividend on April 12, the 
         Trust's cash and marketable securities will total approximately 
         $1.2 billion," he added.
         
         With the sale of Manville's shares in Riverwood, as announced 
         earlier, Manville will change its name to Schuller Corporation, 
         its remaining business operation.  Schuller, a leading building 
         materials company headquartered in Denver, reported 1995 sales of 
         $1.4 billion.
         
         "Taking advantage of the generally excellent business conditions 
         in its industry, Schuller has achieved 16 consecutive quarters of 
         increased earnings.  I am confident that Schuller will continue to 
         deliver value to its shareholders and will be a strong core asset 
         for the Trust," Mr. Falise said.
