          Item 4.Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.

                 On April 29,  1994, the  Registrant dismissed  its former
                 independent accountants, Coopers  & Lybrand  ("C&L"), and
                 replaced it  with  Arthur  Andersen  &  Co.  ("AA").  The
                 decision  to  change  independent  accountants  was  made
                 following a review of competitive  proposals submitted by
                 C&L, AA and other major public  accounting firms, and was
                 approved by the Audit Committee of the Registrant's Board
                 of Directors.

                 C&L's reports on the  Registrant's consolidated financial
                 statements for 1992 and  1993 did not contain  an adverse
                 opinion  or  a  disclaimer  of  opinion,   and  were  not
                 qualified or modified as  to uncertainty, audit  scope or
                 accounting principles.    During 1992  and  1993 and  the
                 period from January 1, 1994 through April 29, 1994, there
                 were no disagreements between  the Registrant and  C&L on
                 any  matter  of   accounting  principles   or  practices,
                 financial  statement  disclosure  or  auditing  scope  or
                 procedure, which  disagreements, if  not resolved  to the
                 satisfaction of  C&L, would  have caused  C&L  to make  a
                 reference to the  subject matter  of the  disagreement in
                 connection with its reports.

                 The Registrant  has  provided  C&L  with  a copy  of  the
                 disclosures contained in this Form 8-K  and has requested
                 that C&L furnish the  Registrant with a  letter addressed
                 to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether
                 C&L agrees with the statements made  by the Registrant in
                 this Form 8-K and, if not, stating  the respects in which
                 it does  not agree.   Upon  receipt of  such letter,  the
                 Registrant  will  file  such  letter  as  an  exhibit  by
                 amendment to this Form 8-K.
