ITEM 4.  OWNERSHIP.

         (b)     Percent of Class:                             6.1% (3)


___________________________________________

(1)      On May 19, 1988, the Issuer distributed one share of Series B Common
         Stock for each outstanding share of Common Stock (which was
         redesignated on May 4, 1988 as Series A Common Stock). Series B Common
         Stock is convertible at any time on a share for share basis into
         Series A Common Stock.  Pursuant to Rule 13d-3(d)(1)(i), the Reporting
         Person is deemed to be the beneficial owner of the Series A shares
         into which the Series B shares are convertible, and such Series A
         shares are included in this number.

(2)      Includes 30,000 Series A shares and 30,000 Series B shares owned by
         the E.M. Dealey Trust, for which Mr. Dealey shares the voting power as
         co-trustee, but does not include 300 Series A shares and 300 Series B
         shares owned by Mr. Dealey's wife, as to all of which shares Mr.
         Dealey disclaims beneficial ownership.

(3)      Pursuant to Rule 13d-3(d)(1)(i), this percentage has been calculated
         by including in both the Reporting Person's number of shares
         beneficially owned and the number of Series A shares outstanding, the
         number of Series A shares into which the Series B shares beneficially
         owned by the Reporting Person are convertible, but the number of
         Series A shares outstanding does not include Series A shares into
         which Series B shares held by others than the Reporting Person are
         convertible. Were the percentage calculated by also including in the
         outstanding Series A shares the number of Series A shares into which
         Series B shares held by others than the Reporting Person are
         convertible, the Reporting Person would be deemed to be the beneficial
         owner of 4.2% of the outstanding Series A shares.

         (c)    Number of shares as to which such person has:

                   (i)   sole power to vote or to direct the vote:   835,334 (1)
                                                                     -----------

                  (ii)   shared power to vote or to direct the vote:   60,000
                                                                       ------

                 (iii)   sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition 
                         of:   835,334 (1)
                               -----------

                  (iv)   shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition 
                         of:   60,000
                               ------
